Genesis 38:16

וַיֵּ֨ט אֵלֶ֜יהָ אֶל־הַדֶּ֗רֶךְ וַיֹּ֨אמֶר֙ הָֽבָה־נָּא֙ אָבֹ֣וא אֵלַ֔יִךְ כִּ֚י לֹ֣א יָדַ֔ע כִּ֥י כַלָּתֹ֖ו הִ֑וא וַתֹּ֨אמֶר֙ מַה־תִּתֶּן־לִּ֔י כִּ֥י תָבֹ֖וא אֵלָֽי׃

And he turned to her by the road and said, “Come now, let me come to you,” for he did not know that she was his daughter-in-law. And she said, “What will you give me to come to me?”
