Genesis 38:13-15
New Living Translation
13 Someone told Tamar, “Look, your father-in-law is going up to Timnah to shear his sheep.”
14 Tamar was aware that Shelah had grown up, but no arrangements had been made for her to come and marry him. So she changed out of her widow’s clothing and covered herself with a veil to disguise herself. Then she sat beside the road at the entrance to the village of Enaim, which is on the road to Timnah. 15 Judah noticed her and thought she was a prostitute, since she had covered her face.

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.
