[0:00 - The Broken Promise] (Sound Effects: Dry wind, goats bleating in the distance) (Male Bass Voice - Narrator - Low & Gritty) Three sons born to the line, but the first two passed away. Judah told the woman: "In your father’s house you stay." He feared for the last child, he kept the truth inside. A widow left in shadows, with nowhere left to hide. [Hebrew] וַיֹּאמֶר יְהוּדָה לְתָמָר כַּלָּתוֹ שְׁבִי אַלְמָנָה בֵּית אָבִיךְ. (Va-yo-mer Ye-hu-da le-Ta-mar ka-la-to: she-vi al-ma-na be-et a-vi-ch) [1:00 - The Crossroad / The Veiled Woman] (Slow, heavy stomp rhythm, slide guitar starts weeping) (Female Vocals - Tamar - Soulful & Strong) I waited for the promise, but the season turned to gray. So I took off my mourning clothes and sat beside the way. I covered up my face, I stood where the roads divide. He didn't know his daughter-in-law was standing by his side. [Hebrew] וַתָּסַר בִּגְדֵי אַלְמְנוּתָהּ מֵעָלֶיהָ... וַתֵּשֶׁב בְּפֶתַח עֵינַיִם. (Va-ta-sar big-dei al-me-nu-tah me-a-le-ha... va-te-shev be-pe-tach ei-na-yim) [1:50 - The Pledge / The Transaction] (Music slows down, intimate guitar picking) (Male Bass Voice - Judah - Deep & Rough) "What will you give me?" she asked with a hidden smile. "I’ll send a kid from the flock, if you wait a little while." "Give me your seal, your cord, and the staff that’s in your hand." He gave away his honor, to the stranger in the land. [2:20 - The Judgement & The Truth] (Tension builds, heavy bass pulses) (Male Bass Voice - Judah - Shouting) "She has played the harlot! Bring her out to the flame!" (Female Vocals - Tamar - Calm & Clear) "Look at these items, Judah... do you recognize the name?" (Male Bass Voice - Judah - Quiet, Broken, Realization) "The seal is mine... the staff is in my grip." "She is more righteous than I. The truth is on her lip." [Hebrew] צָדְקָה מִמֶּנִּי. (Tzad-ka mi-me-ni) [3:00 - Ending] (Slide guitar fades into the desert wind) [Hebrew] וַיְהִי בְּעֵת לִדְתָּהּ, וְהִנֵּה תְאוֹמִים בְּבִטְנָהּ. (Va-ye-hi be-et lid-tah, ve-hi-ne te-o-mim be-vit-nah) Truth in the dust. [Clean Cut]
