Lexham English Bible
8 Then Judah said to Onan, “Go in to the wife of your brother and perform the duty of a brother-in-law to her, and raise up offspring for your brother.” 9 But Onan knew that the offspring would not be for him, so whenever he went in to the wife of his brother he would waste it on the ground[a] so as not to give offspring to his brother. 10 And what he did was evil in the sight of Yahweh, so he killed him also.
