Genesis 38:13-15
New Century Version
13 Tamar learned that Judah, her father-in-law, was going to Timnah to cut the wool from his sheep. 14 So she took off the clothes that showed she was a widow and covered her face with a veil to hide who she was. Then she sat down by the gate of Enaim on the road to Timnah. She did this because Judah’s younger son Shelah had grown up, but Judah had not made plans for her to marry him.
15 When Judah saw her, he thought she was a prostitute, because she had covered her face with a veil.

New International Version
13 When Tamar(A) was told, “Your father-in-law is on his way to Timnah to shear his sheep,”(B) 14 she took off her widow’s clothes,(C) covered herself with a veil(D) to disguise herself, and then sat down(E) at the entrance to Enaim, which is on the road to Timnah.(F) For she saw that, though Shelah(G) had now grown up, she had not been given to him as his wife.
15 When Judah saw her, he thought she was a prostitute,(H) for she had covered her face.
