The Testaments of the Twelve Patriarchs 46
Judah 11
Though he knew the race of Canaan was wicked, the thoughts of youth blinded his heart.
1nd I knew that the race of Canaan was wicked, but the thoughts of youth blinded my heart.
2 And when I saw her pouring out wine, in the drunkenness of wine was I deceived, and I fell before her.
3 And while I was away, she went and took for Shelah a wife from the land of Caanan.
4 And when I knew what she had done, I cursed her in the anguish of my soul, and she also died in the wickedness of her sons.
