Holman Christian Standard Bible
Then Judah said to his daughter-in-law Tamar, “ Remain a widow in your father’s house until my son Shelah grows up.” For he thought, “ He might die too, like his brothers.” So Tamar went to live in her father’s house.

New American Standard Bible
Then Judah said to his daughter-in-law Tamar, "Remain a widow in your father's house until my son Shelah grows up"; for he thought, "[I am afraid] that he too may die like his brothers." So Tamar went and lived in her father's house.

King James Bible
Then said Judah to Tamar his daughter in law, Remain a widow at thy father's house, till Shelah my son be grown: for he said, Lest peradventure he die also, as his brethren [did]. And Tamar went and dwelt in her father's house. International Standard Version
After this, Judah told his daughter-in-law Tamar, "Go live as a widow in your father's house until my son Shelah grows up." But he was really thinking, "…otherwise, Shelah might die like his brothers." So Tamar left and lived in her father's house.

American Standard Version
Then said Judah to Tamar his daughter-in-law, Remain a widow in thy father's house, till Shelah my son be grown up; for he said, Lest he also die, like his brethren. And Tamar went and dwelt in her father's house.

Young's Literal Translation
And Judah saith to Tamar his daughter-in-law, 'Abide a widow at thy father's house, till Shelah my son groweth up;' for he said, 'Lest he die -- even he -- like his brethren;' and Tamar goeth and dwelleth at her father's house.Genesis 38:11 • Genesis 38:11 NIV • Genesis 38:11 NLT • Genesis 38:11 ESV • Genesis 38:11 NASB • Genesis 38:11 KJV • Genesis 38:11 Commentaries • Genesis 38:11 Bible Apps • Genesis 38:11 Biblia Paralela • Genesis 38:11 Chinese Bible • Genesis 38:11 French Bible • Genesis 38:11 German Bible
