Aile na cibusa wakwe Hira umwina Adulamu. 13Ilyo abantu baeba Tama abati, “Sofyala alaya ku Timuna kukubeya impaanga shakwe,” 14Tama afuula insalu shabumukamfwilwa, aifimba ne citambala pakuti eishibikwa. Elyo aikala pa mpongolo ya ku Enaimu iyabela ku musebo walola ku Timuna, pantu Tama alimwene ukuti nangu Shela nomba nakula, lelo Yuda tamuufishe kuli Shela pakuti abe umukashi wakwe.

15Ilyo Yuda amwene Tama, wena alatontonkanya ukuti ni cilende, pantu Tama alifimbile ku menso yakwe. 16Awe Yuda aya ukwali Tama mumbali ya musebo, pantu taishibe ukuti ni nafyala.

Kanshi Tama epakwimita pa mulandu wakulala na Yuda. 19Elyo aimapo aya nokuya. Afuula icitambala cakwe, afwala nakabili insalu shabumukamfwilwa.

20Yuda alibuulile akana ka mbushi akapeela kuli cibusa wakwe umwina Adulamu pakuti aye mupokela ku mwanakashi ifyo ashile nge cikatilo, lelo tamusangile. 21Elyo aipusha abantu ba kulya kuntu ali ati, “Bushe ulya cilende wa ku mfuba#38:21 cilende wa ku mfuba: Muntu uwasuminishiwe ukucita ubulalelale mu ncende ya mapepo ya milungu iyabufi. aciba mu mbali ya musebo pa mpongolo ya ku Enaimu ali kwi?” Nabo bamwasuka abati, “Awe kuno takwaba cilende wa ku mfuba.” 22Kanshi cibusa wakwe abwelela kuli Yuda amweba ati, “Awe nshimusangile. Kabili na bantu bekala kulya kwine basosele abati ‘Kuno takwaba cilende wa ku mfuba.’” 23Elyo Yuda asosa ati, “Kafisunge pantu kuti twasebaninapofye. Kabili nacimutumina akana ka mbushi, lelo tawacimusangakofye.”

24Papitile nalimo imyeshi itatu, elyo baishile eba Yuda abati, “Nokofyala Tama ni cilende. Kabili ali ne fumo lya mu bulalelale.” Yuda epakusosa ati, “Mufumisheni panse mumoce afwe.” 25Cilya balamufumisha panse Tama atuma amashiwi kuli shifyala Yuda ati, “Ili fumo ndi nalyo, lyafuma ku mwine wa ifi fintu.
