1Ngelo xesha uYuda wabashiya abazalwana bakhe, wahamba nenye indoda yaseAdulam, egama linguHira. 2uYuda wabona khona intombi yendoda engumKanan, egama linguShuwa; Wamthatha wamngena. 3Wamitha, wazala unyana; Wathi igama lakhe nguEre. 4Wabuya wamitha, wazala unyana; Wathi igama lakhe nguOnan. 5Wabuya wamitha, wazala unyana; Wamthiya igama elinguSela, waye eseKesibe ukumzala kwakhe. 6uYuda wamzeka uEre, izibulo lakhe, intombi egama linguTamare; 7uEre, owamazibulo kaYuda, ebengumntu mbi emehlweni kaYehova; uYehova wambulala. 8Wathi uYuda kuOnan, Yiya nomfazi womntakwenu, umngene, umzalele umntakwenu abantwana. 9Wayesazi uOnan ukuba imbewu ayiyi kuba yeyakhe; wathi akungena kumfazi womninawa wakhe, wazikhahlela emhlabeni, ukuba angamniki mbewu umkhuluwa wakhe. 10Loo nto wayenzayo yayimbi emehlweni kaYehova; ngoko ke, naye wambulala. 11Wathi uYuda kuTamare umolokazana wakhe, Hlala ungumhlolokazi endlwini kayihlo, ade akhule uSela, unyana wam; ngokuba ethe, ukuze naye angafi njengabakhuluwa bakhe. uTamare waya kuhlala endlwini kayise. 12Ekugqibeleni yafa intombi kaShuwa, umkaYuda; yaye uYuda wathuthuzeleka waza wenyuka waya kubachebi bezimvu zakhe eTimna, yena nomhlobo wakhe uHira waseAdulam. 13Waxelelwa uTamare, kwathiwa, Nanko unyokozala, enyuka esiya kucheba impahla yakhe emfutshane kwaTimna. 14Wazikhulula ke iingubo zobuhlolokazi bakhe, wazigqubuthela ngesigqubuthelo, wazithi wambu, wahlala ebaleni endleleni eya kwaTimna; ngokuba ebebona ukuba uSela ukhulile, akanikelwa kuye ukuba abe ngumkakhe. 15uYuda wambona, waba ulihenyukazi; ngokuba ebegqubuthele ubuso. 16Wathi gu bucala, waya kuye endleleni, wathi, Hamba, ndiya kuhamba nawe; (ngokuba ebengazi ukuba ngumolokazana wakhe.) Wathi, Wondinika ntoni na, ukuze ungene nam? 17Wathi, Mna ndothumela ndithabathe itakane lebhokwe elisempahleni emfutshane. Wathi: Ngaba uya kundinika isiqinisekiso de usithumele? 18Wathi, Ndikunike sibambiso sini na? Wathi, Umsesane wakho wokutywina, nezacholo zakho, nomsimelelo wakho, zisesandleni sakho. Wamnika ke, wangena kuye, wakhawula ngaye. 19Wemka, wahamba, wakhulula isigqubuthelo sakhe, wambatha iingubo zobuhlolokazi bakhe. 20uYuda wathumela itakane lebhokhwe ngesandla somhlobo wakhe waseAdulam, ukuze athabathe isibambiso sakhe esandleni saloo mfazi, kodwa akamfumananga. 21Sabuza kubantu baloo mmandla, sathi: “Liphi na ing’awukazi ebe ngasendleleni? Bathi ke bona, Akubangwa mbulo apha. 22Wabuyela kuYuda, wathi, Andimfumananga; athi ke amadoda aloo ndawo, Akuhenyuzi kule ndawo. 23Wathi uYuda, Makazithabathele, ukuze singadani; yabonani, ndimthume lo mntwana, animfumana; 24Kwathi, ekupheleni kweenyanga ezintathu, waxelelwa uYuda, kwathiwa, uTamare, umolokazana wakho, ukrexezile; yabona, ukhawule ekrexeza; Wathi uYuda, Mkhupheni, atshiswe. 25Akuba ezelwe, wathumela kuninazala, wathi, Ndimithi indoda abazelwe yiyo; abasebenzi. 26uYuda wabazi, wathi, Ulilungisa kunam; ngokuba ndingamnikanga uSela unyana wam. Kwaye akasamazi. 27Wathi akuzala, wabona amawele esizalweni sakhe. 28Kwathi ekuzaleni kwakhe, wasolula isandla umzalisikazi, wathabatha umsonto obomvu wegazi esandleni sakhe, wawubopha esandleni sakhe, wathi, Lo uya kuphuma kuqala. 29Uthe akuxhawula isandla sakhe, waphuma umzalwana wakhe, wathi, Uphume njani na? ke ngoko, wathiywa igama elinguParese. 30Emveni koko, waphuma umninawa wakhe, ephethe inundu ebomvu ngesandla, wathi yena nguSarage.
