WORD Research this...Genesis 38
- 1 And it came to pass at that time, that Judah went down from his brothers, and turned in to a certain Adullamite, whose name was Hirah.
- 2 And Judah saw there a daughter of a certain Canaanite, whose name was Shuah; and he took her, and went in to her.
- 3 And she conceived, and bore a son; and he called his name Er.
- 4 And she conceived again, and bore a son; and she called his name Onan.
- 5 And she yet again conceived, and bore a son; and called his name Shelah: and he was at Chezib, when she bore him.
- 6 And Judah took a wife for Er his firstborn, whose name was Tamar.
- 7 And Er, Judah's firstborn, was wicked in the sight of the LORD; and the LORD slew him.
- 8 And Judah said to Onan, Go in to your brother's wife, and marry her, and raise up seed to your brother.
- 9 And Onan knew that the seed should not be his; and it came to pass, when he went in to his brother's wife, that he spilled it on the ground, lest that he should give seed to his brother.
- 10 And the thing which he did displeased the LORD: why he slew him also.
- 11 Then said Judah to Tamar his daughter in law, Remain a widow at your father's house, till Shelah my son be grown: for he said, Lest peradventure he die also, as his brothers did. And Tamar went and dwelled in her father's house. ¶
- 12 And in process of time the daughter of Shuah Judah's wife died; and Judah was comforted, and went up to his sheep shearers to Timnath, he and his friend Hirah the Adullamite.
- 13 And it was told Tamar, saying, Behold your father in law goes up to Timnath to shear his sheep.
- 14 And she put her widow's garments off from her, and covered her with a veil, and wrapped herself, and sat in an open place, which is by the way to Timnath; for she saw that Shelah was grown, and she was not given to him to wife.
- 15 When Judah saw her, he thought her to be an harlot; because she had covered her face.
- 16 And he turned to her by the way, and said, Go to, I pray you, let me come in to you; (for he knew not that she was his daughter in law.) And she said, What will you give me, that you may come in to me?
- 17 And he said, I will send you a kid from the flock. And she said, Will you give me a pledge, till you send it?
- 18 And he said, What pledge shall I give you? And she said, Your signet, and your bracelets, and your staff that is in your hand. And he gave it her, and came in to her, and she conceived by him.
- 19 And she arose, and went away, and laid by her veil from her, and put on the garments of her widowhood.
- 20 And Judah sent the kid by the hand of his friend the Adullamite, to receive his pledge from the woman's hand: but he found her not.
- 21 Then he asked the men of that place, saying, Where is the harlot, that was openly by the way side? And they said, There was no harlot in this place.
- 22 And he returned to Judah, and said, I cannot find her; and also the men of the place said, that there was no harlot in this place.
- 23 And Judah said, Let her take it to her, lest we be shamed: behold, I sent this kid, and you have not found her. ¶
- 24 And it came to pass about three months after, that it was told Judah, saying, Tamar your daughter in law has played the harlot; and also, behold, she is with child by prostitution. And Judah said, Bring her forth, and let her be burnt.
- 25 When she was brought forth, she sent to her father in law, saying, By the man, whose these are, am I with child: and she said, Discern, I pray you, whose are these, the signet, and bracelets, and staff.
- 26 And Judah acknowledged them, and said, She has been more righteous than I; because that I gave her not to Shelah my son. And he knew her again no more. ¶
- 27 And it came to pass in the time of her travail, that, behold, twins were in her womb.
- 28 And it came to pass, when she travailed, that the one put out his hand: and the midwife took and bound on his hand a scarlet thread, saying, This came out first.
- 29 And it came to pass, as he drew back his hand, that, behold, his brother came out: and she said, How have you broken forth? this breach be on you: therefore his name was called Pharez.
- 30 And afterward came out his brother, that had the scarlet thread on his hand: and his name was called Zarah.
- 1 And it came to pass at that time, that Judah went down from his brothers, and turned in to a certain Adullamite, whose name was Hirah.
- 2 And Judah saw there a daughter of a certain Canaanite, whose name was Shuah; and he took her, and went in to her.
- 3 And she conceived, and bore a son; and he called his name Er.
- 4 And she conceived again, and bore a son; and she called his name Onan.
- 5 And she yet again conceived, and bore a son; and called his name Shelah: and he was at Chezib, when she bore him.
- 6 And Judah took a wife for Er his firstborn, whose name was Tamar.
- 7 And Er, Judah’s firstborn, was wicked in the sight of the LORD; and the LORD slew him.
- 8 And Judah said to Onan, Go in to your brother’s wife, and marry her, and raise up seed to your brother.
- 9 And Onan knew that the seed should not be his; and it came to pass, when he went in to his brother’s wife, that he spilled it on the ground, lest that he should give seed to his brother.

American King James Version (akjv - 2.1)
2023-12-27English (en)
American King James Version
Produced by Stone Engelbrite
This is a new translation of the Bible, based on the original King James Version. It is a simple word for word update from the King James English. I have taken care to change nothing doctrinely, but to simply update the spelling and vocabulary. I have not changed the grammar because that could alter it doctrinely.
I am hereby putting the American King James version of the Bible into the public domain on November 8, 1999.

Basic Hash Usage Explained
At getBible, we've established a robust system to keep our API synchronized with the Crosswire project's modules. Let me explain how this integration works in simple terms.
We source our Bible text directly from the Crosswire modules. To monitor any updates, we generate "hash values" for each chapter, book, and translation. These hash values serve as unique identifiers that change only when the underlying content changes, thereby ensuring a tight integration between getBible and the Crosswire modules.
Every month, an automated process runs for approximately three hours. During this window, we fetch the latest Bible text from the Crosswire modules. Subsequently, we compare the new hash values and the text with the previous ones. Any detected changes trigger updates to both our official getBible hash repository and the Bible API for all affected translations. This system has been operating seamlessly for several years.
Once the updates are complete, any application utilizing our Bible API should monitor the hash values at the chapter, book, or translation level. Spotting a change in these values indicates that they should update their respective systems.
Hash values can change due to various reasons, including textual corrections like adding omitted verses, rectifying spelling errors, or addressing any discrepancies flagged by the publishers maintaining the modules at Crosswire.
The Crosswire initiative, also known as the SWORD Project, is the "source of truth" for getBible. Any modifications in the Crosswire modules get reflected in our API within days, ensuring our users access the most precise and current Bible text. We pledge to uphold this standard as long as getBible exists and our build scripts remain operational.
We're united in our mission to preserve the integrity and authenticity of the Bible text. If you have questions or require additional information, please use our support system. We're here to assist and will respond promptly.
Thank you for your understanding and for being an integral part of the getBible community.
