Genesis 38:25-27

New King James Version

²⁵ When she was brought out, she sent to her father-in-law, saying, “By the man to whom these belong, I am with child.” And she said, ^(A)“Please determine whose these are—the signet and cord, and staff.”

²⁶ So Judah ^(B)acknowledged them and said, ^(C)“She has been more righteous than I, because ^(D)I did not give her to Shelah my son.” And he ^(E)never knew her again.

²⁷ Now it came to pass, at the time for giving birth, that behold, twins were in her womb.
