Testament of Judah
Chapter 11
- 1 And I knew that the race of the Canaanites was wicked, but the impulse of youth blinded my
- 2 mind. And when I saw her pouring out wine, owing to the intoxication of wine I was deceived, and
- 3 took her although my father had not counselled (it). And while I was away she went and took for
- 4 Shelah a wife from Canaan. And when I knew what she had done, I cursed her in the anguish of
- 5 my soul. And she also died through her wickedness together with her sons.
