Genesis 38:12-14
Complete Jewish Bible
12 In due time, Shua’s daughter, the wife of Y’hudah, died. After Y’hudah had been comforted, he went up to be with his sheep-shearers in Timnah, he and his friend Hirah the ‘Adulami. 13 Tamar was told, “Your father-in-law has gone up to Timnah to shear his sheep.” 14 So she took off her widow’s clothes, completely covered her face with her veil, and sat at the entrance to ‘Einayim, which is on the way to Timnah. For she saw that Shelah had grown up, but she still was not being given to him as his wife.

New International Version
12 After a long time Judah’s wife, the daughter of Shua,(A) died. When Judah had recovered from his grief, he went up to Timnah,(B) to the men who were shearing his sheep,(C) and his friend Hirah the Adullamite(D) went with him.
