Genesis 38:9 in Hindi

ओनान तो जानता था कि सन्तान तो मेरी न ठहरेगी: सो ऐसा हुआ, कि जब वह अपनी भौजाई के पास गया, तब उस ने भूमि पर वीर्य गिराकर नाश किया, जिस से ऐसा न हो कि उसके भाई के नाम से वंश चले।

Onaan to jaanataa thaa ki santaan to meree na thaharegee: so aisaa huaa, ki jab vah apanee bhaujaaee ke paas gayaa, tab us ne bhoomi par veery giraakar naash kiyaa, jis se aisaa na ho ki usake bhaaee ke naam se vansh chale.
