Genesis 38:29 in other translations
And it came to pass, as he drew back his hand, that, behold, his brother came out: and she said, How hast thou broken forth? this breach be upon thee: therefore his name was called Pharez.
But when he pulled his hand back and his brother came out, she said, “You have broken out first!” So he was named Perez.
As he drew back his hand, behold, his brother came out, and she said, “Why have you made a breach for yourself?” Therefore his name was called Perez.

In context
26 Juda les reconnut, et dit: Elle est moins coupable que moi, puisque je ne l’ai pas donnée à Schéla, mon fils. Et il ne la connut plus.
27 Quand elle fut au moment d’accoucher, voici, il y avait deux jumeaux dans son ventre.
28 Et pendant l’accouchement il y en eut un qui présenta la main; la sage-femme la prit, et y attacha un fil cramoisi, en disant: Celui-ci sort le premier.
29 Mais il retira la main, et son frère sortit. Alors la sage-femme dit: Quelle brèche tu as faite! Et elle lui donna le nom de Pérets.
30 Ensuite sortit son frère, qui avait à la main le fil cramoisi; et on lui donna le nom de Zérach.
