Context
15Yuda alipomwona alifikiri ni kahaba, kwa sababu alikuwa amefunika uso wake. 16Pasipo kutambua kwamba alikuwa mkwe wake, akamwendea kando ya njia na kumwambia, “Njoo sasa, nikutane na wewe kimwili.”
Yule mkwewe akamuuliza, “Utanipa nini nikikutana nawe kimwili?” 17Akamwambia, “Nitakutumia mwana-mbuzi kutoka kundi langu.”
Akamuuliza, “Utanipa kitu chochote kama amana mpaka utakapompeleka?” 18Akamuuliza, “Nikupe amana gani?”
Akamjibu, “Pete yako na kamba yake pamoja na fimbo iliyo mkononi mwako.” Kwa hiyo akampa vitu hivyo kisha akakutana naye kimwili, naye akapata mimba yake. 19Tamari akaondoka, akavua shela yake akavaa tena nguo zake za ujane.
