Genesis|38:25 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 thee, whose [are] these, the signet, and bracelets, and staff.
Genesis|38:26 And Judah acknowledged [them], and said, She hath been more righteous than I; because that I gave her not to Shelah my son. And he knew her again no more.

Genesis|38:29 And it came to pass, as he drew back his hand, that, behold, his brother came out: and she said, How hast thou broken forth. [this] breach [be] upon thee: therefore his name was called Pharez.
