Genesis 38:17-19

Evangelical Heritage Version

¹⁷ He said, “I will send you a young goat from the flock.”

She said, “Will you give me something as a security deposit until you send the goat?”

¹⁸ He said, “What should I give you as a deposit?”

She said, “Your stamp seal on its cord and your staff that is in your hand.”

He gave them to her and went to her, and she conceived by him. ¹⁹ Then she got up and left. Later she took off her veil and put her widow’s garments back on.
