17And he said, I will send a kid from the flock. And she said, Wilt thou give a pledge, till thou send
18And he said, What pledge shall I give thee? And she said, Thy signet, and thy bracelets, and thy staff that in thine hand. And he gave her, and came in unto her, and she conceived by him.
19And she arose, and went away, and laid by her vail from her, and put on the garments of her widowhood.
20And Judah sent the kid by the hand of his friend the Adullamite, to receive pledge from the woman’s hand: but he found her not.
21Then he asked the men of that place, saying, Where the harlot, that openly by the way side? And they said, There was no harlot in this
22And he returned to Judah, and said, I cannot find her; and also the men of the place said, there was no harlot in this
23And Judah said, Let her take to her, lest we be shamed: behold, I sent this kid, and thou hast not found her.
