Mui 29
1 Ya: igobe da asili, eso maba la: idi soge amoga asi.
Then Jacob went on his journey till he came to the land of the children of the East.
2 E da hano nasu uli dou gisi soge ganodini diala, amoga doaga: i. Amo uli dogoi gadenene, sibi gilisisu udiana dialebe ba: i. Sibi gilisisu da amo uli dogoiga hano nasu. Uli dogoi da gele bagadega ga: i dagoi.
And there he saw a water-hole in a field, and by the side of it three flocks of sheep, for there they got water for the sheep: and on the mouth of the water-hole there was a great stone.
3 Hou da agoane galu. Sibi gilisisu da uli dogoiga doaga: laloba, sibi ouligisu dunu da gele bagade amo bebesole, hano nasu amo sibima olelesu. Hano nanu, sibi ouligisu da uli dogoi gele bagadega bu ga: su.
And all the flocks would come together there, and when the stone had been rolled away, they would give the sheep water, and put the stone back again in its place on the mouth of the water-hole.
4 Ya: igobe da sibi ouligisu dunuma amane adole ba: i, “Dilia da habidili misibila: ?” Ilia da bu adole i, “Ninia da Halane soge dunu.”
Then Jacob said to the herdmen, My brothers, where do you come from? And they said, From Haran.
5 E da bu adole ba: i, “Dilia da La: iba: ne, Na: iho ea aowa amo dawa: bela: ?” “Ma! Ninia dawa: !” ilia amane sia: i.
And he said to them, Have you any knowledge of Laban, the son of Nahor? And they said, We have.
6 Ya: igobe amane adole ba: i, “E da hahawane esalabala?” Ilia bu adole i, “E da hahawane esala! Ba: ma! Idiwi La: isele, La: iba: ne ea uda mano a: fini da ea sibi gilisisu oule manebe goea!”
And he said to them, Is he well? And they said, He is well, and here is Rachel his daughter coming with the sheep.
7 Ya: igobe da amane sia: i, “Wali da esomogoa fawane. Amaiba: le, sibi amo diasuga gilisimu da hamedei. Dilia sibi ilima hano dili ianu, bu gisi sogega oule masunu da defea.”
Then Jacob said, The sun is still high and it is not time to get the cattle together: get water for the sheep and go and give them their food.
8 Ilia da bu adole i, “Amai da hame hamomu! Sibi gilisisu huluane da doaga: sea fawane, ninia da gele bagade bebesole, sibi ilima hano dili imunu.”
And they said, We are not able to do so till all the flocks have come together and the stone has been rolled away from the mouth of the water-hole; then we will get water for the sheep.
9 Ya: igobe da ilima sia: daloba, La: isele da ea sibi gilisisu oule misini, doaga: i dagoi.
While he was still talking with them, Rachel came with her father's sheep, for she took care of them.
10 Ya: igobe da La: isele amo ea daiya La: iba: ne ea sibi oule manebe ba: loba, e da hano nasu uli dogoi amoga asili, gele bebesole, sibi ilima hano dili i.
Then when Jacob saw Rachel, the daughter of Laban, his mother's brother, coming with Laban's sheep, he came near, and rolling the stone away from the mouth of the hole, he got water for Laban's flock.
11 Amalalu, e da La: isele amo nonogoi, amola hahawane bagadeba: le, dinanu.
And weeping for joy, Jacob gave Rachel a kiss.
12 E da La: iselema amane adole i, “Na da dia ada esoa: bi, Lebega ea mano.” La: isele da ea ada amo adomusa: hehenane asi.
And Rachel, hearing from Jacob that he was her father's relation and that he was the son of Rebekah, went running to give her father news of it.
13 La: iba: ne da esoa: bi Ya: igobe misi dagoi amo nababeba: le, hehenane, ema doaga: le, nonogone, hi diasuga oule asi. Ya: igobe da ea hou huluane ema olelei.
And Laban, hearing news of Jacob, his sister's son, came running, and took Jacob in his arms, and kissing him, made him come into his house. And Jacob gave him news of everything.
14 Amalalu, La: iba: ne da amane sia: i, “Dafawane! Di da na fi dunu maga: me afae amoga hamoi.” Ya: igobe da oubi afae amoga ea diasuga esalu.
And Laban said to him, Truly, you are my bone and my flesh. And he kept Jacob with him for the space of a month.
15 La: iba: ne da Ya: igobema amane sia: i, “Di da na fi dunuba: le na hawa: hamosu udigili hamomu da defea hame galebe. Di da bidi habodayane lama: bela: ?”
Then Laban said to Jacob, Because you are my brother are you to be my servant for nothing? say now, what is your payment to be?
16 La: iba: ne da uda mano aduna esala. Magobo mano da Lia amola eno da La: isele.
Now Laban had two daughters: the name of the older was Leah, and the name of the younger was Rachel.
17 Lia ea si da gasa hame galu. Be La: isele ea da: i hodo da noga: iwane ba: i.
And Leah's eyes were clouded, but Rachel was fair in face and form.
18 Ya: igobe da La: iselema bagade magesa: i. Amaiba: le e da La: iba: nema amane sia: i, “Na da La: isele amo lamusa: , ode fesuale dima hawa: hamomu da defeala: ?”
And Jacob was in love with Rachel; and he said, I will be your servant seven years for Rachel, your younger daughter.
19 La: iba: ne da bu adole i, “Na da dunu enoma imunu higa: i. Dima fawane imunu. Nama ouesaloma!”
And Laban said, It is better for you to have her than another man: go on living here with me.
20 Ya: igobe da ode fesuale La: isele lama: ne hawa: hamosu. E da ema bagade asigiba: le, amo ode da eso bagahame defele ba: i.
And Jacob did seven years' work for Rachel; and because of his love for her it seemed to him only a very little time.
21 Amalalu, Ya: igobe da La: iba: nema amane sia: i, “Na ode da gidigi dagoi. Na da dia mano lamu galebe.”
Then Jacob said to Laban, Give me my wife so that I may have her, for the days are ended.
22 Amaiba: le, La: iba: ne da uda lasu lolo Nasu bagade hamoi. E da dunu huluane misa: ne sia: i.
And Laban got together all the men of the place and gave a feast.
23 Be gasia, e da La: isele fisili, Lia amo Ya: igobema oule misi. Amalalu, Ya: igobe da Lia amo gilisili golai.
And in the evening he took Leah, his daughter, and gave her to him, and he went in to her.
24 (La: iba: ne da ea udigili hawa: hamosu a: fini Siliba amo Lia hi hawa: hamomusa: gini i dagoi.)
And Laban gave Zilpah, his servant-girl, to Leah, to be her waiting-woman.
25 Golale hahabe, Ya: igobe da uda da ema gilisili golai da La: isele hame be Lia ba: i. E da La: iba: nema asili amane sia: i, “Di da abuli amo hou nama hamobela: ? Na da La: isele lamusa: hawa: hamoi dagoi. Di da abuliba: le nama ogogobela: ?”
And in the morning Jacob saw that it was Leah: and he said to Laban, What have you done to me? was I not working for you so that I might have Rachel? why have you been false to me?
26 La: iba: ne da bu adole i, “Ninia hou guiguda: da ninia magobo uda mano bisili dunuga lama: ne iaha. Fa: no eno uda mano iaha.
And Laban said, In our country we do not let the younger daughter be married before the older.
27 Be uda lasu lolo nasu hi afae da dagosea, defea, na da La: isele amola dima imunu. Be amo lama: ne, di da na hawa: hamosu ode fesuale eno hamoma.”
Let the week of the bride-feast come to its end and then we will give you the other in addition, if you will be my servant for another seven years.
28 Ya: igobe da amo hamomu sia: i. Amalalu, hi afae aligili, La: iba: ne da ea mano La: isele amo ema i.
And Jacob did so; and when the week was ended, Laban gave him his daughter Rachel for his wife.
29 (La: iba: ne da ea udigili hawa: hamosu a: fini ea dio amo Biliha amo La: isele fidimusa: i.)
And Laban gave Rachel his servant-girl Bilhah to be her waiting-woman.
30 Ya: igobe da La: isele amo gilisili golai. Ea magesa: i hou ema da ea asigi hou Lia ema baligi dagoi. Amalalu, e da La: iba: ne ea hawa: hamosu ode fesuale eno hamoi.
Then Jacob took Rachel as his wife, and his love for her was greater than his love for Leah; and he went on working for Laban for another seven years.
31 Hina Gode da Ya: igobe ea hou amo La: iselema bagade asigi amola Liama fonobahadi asigi amo ba: beba: le, Gode da Liama mano lama: ne logo fodoi. Be La: isele da aligime esalu.
Now the Lord, seeing that Leah was not loved, gave her a child; while Rachel had no children.
32 Lia da abula agui, dunu mano lalelegei. E amane sia: i, “Hina Gode da na se nabasu ba: i dagoi. Wali nagoa da nama asigimu.” Amaiba: le, e da dio asuli amo Liubene (Se Nabasu Ba: i)
And Leah was with child, and gave birth to a son to whom she gave the name Reuben: for she said, The Lord has seen my sorrow; now my husband will have love for me.
33 Amalalu, e da bu eno abula agui ba: i. Dunu mano eno da lalelegele, Lia da amane sia: i, “Hina Gode da Ya: igobe da nama hame asigi amo nababeba: le, mano nama i.” Amaiba: le, amo manoma e da Simione (Nabasu dunu) dio asuli.
Then she became with child again, and gave birth to a son; and said, Because it has come to the Lord's ears that I am not loved, he has given me this son in addition: and she gave him the name Simeon.
34 E da bu eno abula agui. Dunu mano eno lai. E amane sia: i, “Wali na da dunu mano udiana laiba: le, nagoa da nama la: gi dagoi ba: mu.” Amaiba: le, e da amo manoma Lifai (La: gi) dio asuli.
And she was with child again, and gave birth to a son; and said, Now at last my husband will be united to me, because I have given him three sons: so he was named Levi.
35 Amalalu, e da abula agui, dunu mano eno lai. E da amane sia: i, “Wali na da Hina Godema nodomu.” Amaiba: le, e da amo manoma Yuda (Nodosu) dio asuli. Amalalu, e da mano lasu yolesi.
And she was with child again, and gave birth to a son: and she said, This time I will give praise to the Lord: so he was named Judah; after this she had no more children for a time.
