וַיֹּ֤אמֶר יְהוּדָה֙ תִּֽקַּֽח־לָ֔הּ פֶּ֖ן נִהְיֶ֣ה לָב֑וּז הִנֵּ֤ה שָׁלַ֙חְתִּי֙ הַגְּדִ֣י הַזֶּ֔ה וְאַתָּ֖ה לֹ֥א מְצָאתָֽהּ׃
Lalu Yehuda berkata, “Biarlah ia memiliki barang-barang itu, supaya kita jangan menjadi bahan ejekan. Lihat, aku sudah mengirimkan anak kambing ini, tetapi engkau tidak menemukan perempuan itu.”
Targum Jonathan
And Jehuda said, Lest she should have taken the pledge, lest we become a laughing stock, behold, I have sent this goat, and thou canst not find her.
