38:3She became pregnant8 and had a son. Judah named9 him Er. 38:4She became pregnant again and had another son, whom she named Onan. 38:5Then she had10 yet another son, whom she named Shelah. She gave birth to him in Kezib.11
Footnotes
- 8 Or “she conceived” (also in the following verse).
- 9 Some read this verb as feminine, “she called,” to match the pattern of the next two verses. But the , “he called,” should probably be retained as the more difficult reading. Heb “and he called his name.” The referent (Judah) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
- 10 Heb “and she added again and she gave birth.” The first verb and the adverb emphasize that she gave birth once more.
- 11 Or “and he [i.e., Judah] was in Kezib when she gave birth to him.”
