< 創世記 29 >
And he lifted up Jacob feet his and he went [the] land of towards [the] people of [the] east.
2 舉目看見田間有口井,還有三群羊,臥在井旁。--因為人慣常由這井取水飲羊,井口上蓋著塊大石頭;
And he saw and there! a well [was] in the field and there! there three flocks of sheep [were] lying down at it for from the well that people watered the flocks and the stone [was] large over [the] mouth of the well.
3 幾時羊群都聚集在那裏,人就將井口的石頭挪開,取水飲羊;然後再將石頭蓋在井口原處。
And they were gathered there towards all the flocks and they rolled the stone from over [the] mouth of the well and they watered the sheep and they put back the stone over [the] mouth of the well to place its.
4 雅各伯對他們說:「弟兄們,你們是那裏的﹖」他們答說:「我們是哈蘭人。」
And he said to them Jacob O brothers my from where? [are] you and they said [are] from Haran we.
5 雅各伯問他們說:「你們認識納曷爾的兒子拉班嗎﹖」他們答說:「我們認識。」
And he said to them ¿ do you know Laban [the] son of Nahor and they said we know [him].
6 雅各伯又問說:「他好嗎﹖」他們答說:「他好。看,那不是他的女兒辣黑耳領著羊群來了。」
And he said to them ¿ [does] health [belong] to him and they said health and there! Rachel daughter his [is] coming with the sheep.
7 雅各伯說:「看,太陽還很高,尚不到聚集家畜的時候,你們取水飲了羊,然後再領去牧放。」
And he said here! still the day [is] great not [the] time of [the] being gathered of the livestock water the sheep and go pasture [them].
8 他們回答說:「不能夠;因為除非等所有羊群都聚集起來,才可挪開井口的石頭,取水飲羊。」
And they said not we are able until that they will be gathered all the flocks and people will roll the stone from over [the] mouth of the well and we will water the sheep.
9 他還同他們說話的時候,辣黑耳領著他父親的羊群到了;因為她是個牧羊女。
Still [was] he speaking with them and Rachel - she came with the sheep which [belonged] to father her for [was] a shepherdess she.
10 雅各伯一見了舅父拉班的女兒辣黑耳,和舅父拉班的羊群,就上前去,挪開井口的石頭,取水飲他舅父拉班的羊。
And it was just as he saw Jacob Rachel [the] daughter of Laban [the] brother of mother his and [the] sheep of Laban [the] brother of mother his and he drew near Jacob and he rolled the stone from over [the] mouth of the well and he watered [the] sheep of Laban [the] brother of mother his.
And he kissed Jacob Rachel and he lifted up voice his and he wept.
12 告訴辣黑耳,自己是她父親的外甥,黎貝加的兒子。辣黑耳便跑回去,告訴她父親。
And he told Jacob to Rachel that [was] [the] relative of father her he and that [was] [the] son of Rebekah he and she ran and she told to father her.
13 拉班一聽得了關於他外甥雅各伯的消息,就跑來迎接他,抱住他,親他,領他到自己的家中。雅各伯遂將所遇的事全告訴了拉班。
And it was when heard Laban [the] report of - Jacob [the] son of sister his and he ran to meet him and he embraced him and he kissed him and he brought him to house his and he recounted to Laban all the things these.
14 拉班對他說:「你實在是我的骨肉。」雅各伯遂同他住下了。過了一月,
And he said to him Laban surely [are] bone my and flesh my you and he remained with him a month of days.
15 拉班對雅各伯說:「豈可因為你是我的外甥,就該白白服事我﹖告訴我,你要什麼報酬﹖」
And he said Laban to Jacob ¿ for relative my [are] you and you will serve me for nothing tell! to me what? [is] wage[s] your.
16 拉班有兩個女兒:大的名叫肋阿,小的名叫辣黑耳。
And [belonged] to Laban two daughters [the] name of the old [one] [was] Leah and [the] name of the young [one] [was] Rachel.
And [the] eyes of Leah [were] weak and Rachel she was beautiful of form and beautiful of appearance.
18 為此雅各伯喜愛辣黑耳,遂回答說:「我願為你小女兒辣黑耳服事你七年。」
And he loved Jacob Rachel and he said I will serve you seven years for Rachel daughter your young.
19 拉班答說:「我將她給你,比給外人好;你就同我住下。」
And he said Laban ([is] good *LB(ah)*) to give I her to you more than to give I her to a man another remain! with me.
20 這樣,雅各伯為得到辣黑耳,服事了拉班七年;由於他喜愛這少女,看七年好像幾天。
And he served Jacob for Rachel seven years and they were in view his like days one in love his her.
21 雅各伯遂對拉班說:「期限已滿,請將我的妻子給我,我好與她親近。」
And he said Jacob to Laban give! wife my for they have been completed days my so I may go into her.
And he gathered Laban all [the] people of the place and he prepared a feast.
23 到了晚上,他卻將自己的女兒肋阿,引到雅各伯前,雅各伯就親近了她。--
And it was in the evening and he took Leah daughter his and he brought her to him and he went into her.
24 拉班且將自己的婢女齊耳帕給了女兒肋阿作婢女。--
And he had given Laban to her Zilpah maidservant his to Leah daughter his a maidservant.
25 到了早晨,他一見是肋阿,便對拉班說:「你對我作的是什麼事﹖我服事你,豈不是為了辣黑耳﹖你為什麼欺騙我﹖」
And it was in the morning and there! she [was] Leah and he said to Laban what? this have you done to me ¿ not for Rachel have I served with you and why? have you deceived me.
26 拉班回答說:「我們這地方沒有先嫁幼女,而後嫁長女的風俗。
And he said Laban not it is done thus in place our to give the young before the firstborn.
27 你同長女滿了七天以後,我也將幼女給你,只要你再服事我七年。」
Complete [the] week of this [one] so let us give to you also this [one] for [the] service which you will serve with me again seven years another.
28 雅各伯就這樣做了。與肋阿滿了七天以後,拉班便將自己的女兒辣黑耳給了他為妻。--
And he did Jacob thus and he completed [the] week of this [one] and he gave to him Rachel daughter his of him to a wife.
29 拉班且將自己的婢女彼耳哈給了女兒辣黑耳作婢女。--
And he had given Laban to Rachel daughter his Bilhah maidservant his to her to [be] a maidservant.
30 雅各伯也親近了辣黑耳,而且他愛辣黑耳甚於肋阿;於是又服事了拉班七年。
And he went also into Rachel and he loved also Rachel more than Leah and he served with him again seven years another.
31 上主見肋阿失寵,便開了她的胎;但辣黑耳卻荒胎不孕。
And he saw Yahweh that [was] hated Leah and he opened womb her and Rachel [was] barren.
32 肋阿懷孕生了一子,給他起名叫勒烏本,說:「上主垂視了我的苦衷,現在我的丈夫會愛我了。」
And she conceived Leah and she bore a son and she called name his Reuben for she said that he has looked Yahweh on affliction my for now he will love me husband my.
33 她又懷孕生了一子,說:「上主聽說我失了寵,又給了我一個。」遂給他起名叫西默盎。
And she conceived again and she bore a son and she said that he has heard Yahweh that [am] hated I and he has given to me also this [one] and she called name his Simeon.
34 她又懷孕生了一子,說:「這次,我的丈夫可要戀住我了,因為我已給他生了三個兒子。」遂給他起名叫肋未。
And she conceived again and she bore a son and she said now this time he will join himself husband my to me for I have borne to him three sons there-fore he called name his Levi.
35 她又懷孕生了一子,說:「這次我要讚頌上主。」為此給他起名叫猶大。以後就停止生育。
And she conceived again and she bore a son and she said this time I will praise Yahweh there-fore she called name his Judah and she stopped from bearing children.
