Genesis 38:26-28

Revised Geneva Translation

²⁶ Then Judah knew, and said, “She is more righteous than me. For she has done it because I did not give her to Shelah, my son.” So, he lay with her no more.

²⁷ Now, when the time had come that she should give birth, behold, there were twins in her womb.

²⁸ And when she was in labor, one put out his hand. And the midwife took and bound a red thread around his hand, saying, “This has come out first.”
