Genesis 30
1 When Rachel saw that she was not bearing any children for Jacob, she envied her sister. “Give me children, or I will die!” she said to Jacob.
Ary rehefa hitan-dRahely fa tsy mba niteraka tamin’ i Jakoba izy, dia nialona ny rahavaviny izy, ka hoy izy tamin’ i Jakoba: Mba omeo zaza aho, fa raha tsy izany, dia ho faty aho.
2 Jacob became angry with Rachel and said, “Am I in the place of God, who has withheld children from you?”
Dia nirehitra tamin-dRahely ny fahatezeran’ i Jakoba, ka hoy izy: Solon’ Andriamanitra, Izay nahamomba anao tsy hiteraka, va aho?
3 Then she said, “Here is my maidservant Bilhah. Sleep with her, that she may bear children for me, so that through her I too can build a family.”
Ary hoy izy: Indro Bila ankizivaviko, vadio izy; dia hiteraka eo am-pofoako izy, mba hahazoako zaza aminy.
4 So Rachel gave Jacob her servant Bilhah as a wife, and he slept with her,
Dia nomeny azy Bila ankizivaviny ho vadiny; ary dia novadin’ i Jakoba koa izy.
5 and Bilhah conceived and bore him a son.
Dia nanan’ anaka Bila ka niteraka zazalahy tamin’ i Jakoba.
6 Then Rachel said, “God has vindicated me; He has heard my plea and given me a son.” So she named him Dan.
Ary hoy Rahely: Andriamanitra efa nanome ahy ny rariny sady efa nihaino ny feoko, ka nomeny zazalahy aho; izany no nanaovany ny anarany hoe Dana.
7 And Rachel’s servant Bilhah conceived again and bore Jacob a second son.
Dia nanan’ anaka indray Bila, ankizivavin-Rahely, ka niteraka zazalahy faharoany tamin’ i Jakoba.
8 Then Rachel said, “In my great struggles, I have wrestled with my sister and won.” So she named him Naphtali.
Ary hoy Rahely: Fitolomana mafy dia mafy no nitolomako tamin’ ny rahavaviko, ka nahery aho; dia nataony hoe Naftaly ny anarany.
9 When Leah saw that she had stopped having children, she gave her servant Zilpah to Jacob as a wife.
Ary rehefa hitan’ i Lea fa efa nitsaha-jaza izy, dia naka an’ i Zilpa ankizivaviny izy, ka nomeny ho vadin’ i Jakoba koa.
10 And Leah’s servant Zilpah bore Jacob a son.
Ary Zilpa, ankizivavin’ i Lea, dia niteraka zazalahy tamin’ i Jakoba.
11 Then Leah said, “How fortunate!” So she named him Gad.
Ary hoy Lea: Manan-jara re aho! dia nataony hoe Gada ny anarany.
12 When Leah’s servant Zilpah bore Jacob a second son,
Ary Zilpa, ankizivavin’ i Lea, dia niteraka zazalahy faharoany tamin’ i Jakoba.
13 Leah said, “How happy I am! For the women call me happy.” So she named him Asher.
Ary hoy Lea: Sambatra aho, fa hataon’ ny zanakavavin’ ny olona hoe sambatra aho; dia nataony hoe Asera ny anarany.
14 Now during the wheat harvest, Reuben went out and found some mandrakes in the field. When he brought them to his mother, Rachel begged Leah, “Please give me some of your son’s mandrakes.”
Ary nivoaka nitsangantsangana Robena tamin’ ny andro fijinjam-bary ka nahita dodaima naniry tany an-tsaha, dia nitondra azy ho any amin’ i Lea reniny. Ary hoy Rahely tamin’ i Lea: Veloma ianao, mba anomezo ahy kely ny dodaiman’ ny zanakao.
15 But Leah replied, “Is it not enough that you have taken away my husband? Now you want to take my son’s mandrakes as well?” “Very well,” said Rachel, “he may sleep with you tonight in exchange for your son’s mandrakes.”
Ary hoy izy taminy: Moa zavatra kely va ny nakanao ny vadiko? Dia halainao koa va ny dodaiman’ ny zanako? Ary hoy Rahely: Aoka handry aminao ihany ary izy anio alina noho ny dodaiman’ ny zanakao.
16 When Jacob came in from the field that evening, Leah went out to meet him and said, “You must come with me, for I have hired you with my son’s mandrakes.” So he slept with her that night.
Ary nony hariva, rehefa tonga avy tany an-tsaha Jakoba, dia nivoaka nitsena azy Lea ka nanao hoe: Ho ato amiko no halehanao; fa ny dodaiman’ ny zanako no efa nakaramako anao tokoa. Dia nandry taminy izy tamin’ iny alina iny.
17 And God listened to Leah, and she conceived and bore a fifth son to Jacob.
Ary Andriamanitra nihaino an’ i Lea, dia nanan’ anaka izy ka niteraka zazalahy fahadiminy tamin’ i Jakoba.
18 Then Leah said, “God has rewarded me for giving my maidservant to my husband.” So she named him Issachar.
Ary hoy Lea: Efa nomen’ Andriamanitra ny karamako, satria nomeko hovadin’ ny vadiko ny ankizivaviko; dia nataony hoe Isakara ny anarany.
19 Again Leah conceived and bore a sixth son to Jacob.
Dia nanan’ anaka indray Lea ka niteraka zazalahy faheniny tamin’ i Jakoba.
20 “God has given me a good gift,” she said. “This time my husband will honor me, because I have borne him six sons.” And she named him Zebulun.
Ary hoy Lea: Efa nanome anjara soa ho ahy Andriamanitra; amin’ izao vao hitoetra amiko ny vadiko, fa efa niteraka zaza enin-dahy ho azy aho; dia nataony hoe Zebolona ny anarany.
21 After that, Leah gave birth to a daughter and named her Dinah.
Ary rehefa afaka izany, dia niteraka zazavavy izy, ka nataony hoe Dina ny anarany.
22 Then God remembered Rachel. He listened to her and opened her womb,
Ary Andriamanitra nahatsiaro an-dRahely, dia nihaino azy ka nampanan’ anaka azy.
23 and she conceived and gave birth to a son. “God has taken away my shame,” she said.
Ary nanan’ anaka izy ka niteraka zazalahy; dia hoy izy: Efa nahafa-tondromaso ahy Andriamanitra.
24 She named him Joseph, and said, “May the LORD add to me another son.”
Dia nataony hoe Josefa ny anarany, ka hoy izy: Jehovah anie mbola hanampy zazalahy iray ho ahy koa.
25 Now after Rachel had given birth to Joseph, Jacob said to Laban, “Send me on my way so I can return to my homeland.
Ary rehefa niteraka an’ i Josefa Rahely, dia hoy Jakoba tamin’ i Labana: Alefaso aho hankany amin’ ny fonenako sy ny taniko.
26 Give me my wives and children for whom I have served you, that I may go on my way. You know how hard I have worked for you.”
Omeo ahy ny vadiko aman-janako, izay nanompoako anao, dia handeha aho; fa fantatrao ny fanompoana izay nanompoako anao.
27 But Laban replied, “If I have found favor in your eyes, please stay. I have learned by divination that the LORD has blessed me because of you.”
Ary hoy Labana taminy: Masìna ianao, raha nahita fitia eo imasonao aho, mitoera eto amiko, efa namantatra aho, ka fantatro fa avy taminao no nitahian’ i Jehovah ahy.
28 And he added, “Name your wages, and I will pay them.”
Ary hoy koa izy: Tonony izay ho karamanao, dia homeko anao.
29 Then Jacob answered, “You know how I have served you and how your livestock have thrived under my care.
Ary hoy Jakoba taminy; Fantatrao ny nanompoako anao sy ny toetry ny omby aman’ ondrinao tato amiko.
30 Indeed, you had very little before my arrival, but now your wealth has increased many times over. The LORD has blessed you wherever I set foot. But now, when may I also provide for my own household?”
Fa kely ny fanananao, fony tsy mbola tonga aho, fa efa nitombo be dia be izy; ary efa nitahy anao Jehovah tamin’ ny diako rehetra; ary ankehitriny, rahoviana kosa aho no mba hihary ho an’ ny ao an-tranoko?
31 “What can I give you?” Laban asked. “You do not need to give me anything,” Jacob replied. “If you do this one thing for me, I will keep on shepherding and keeping your flocks.
Ary hoy izy: Inona ary no homeko anao? Ary hoy Jakoba: Tsy hanome ahy na inona na inona ianao; raha hataonao amiko izao zavatra izao, dia mbola handrasako sy hotandremako ihany ny ondry aman’ osinao:
32 Let me go through all your flocks today and remove from them every speckled or spotted sheep, every dark-colored lamb, and every spotted or speckled goat. These will be my wages.
Handeha hitety ny ondry aman’ osinao rehetra aho anio ka hanavaka ny mara sy ny sada rehetra, ary ny mainty rehetra eo amin’ ny ondry ary ny sada sy ny mara eo amin’ ny osy; koa ireny no ho karamako.
33 So my honesty will testify for me when you come to check on my wages in the future. If I have any goats that are not speckled or spotted, or any lambs that are not dark-colored, they will be considered stolen.”
Ny fahamarinako no ho vavolombeloko amin’ ny andro ho avy, raha tonga ianao handinika ny karamako: izay rehetra tsy mara ary tsy sada eo amin’ ny osy, ary izay tsy mainty eo amin’ ny ondry, dia ho halatro izany.
34 “Agreed,” said Laban. “Let it be as you have said.”
Ary hoy Labana: Eny, aoka ho araka ny teninao ary.
35 That very day Laban removed all the streaked or spotted male goats and every speckled or spotted female goat—every one that had any white on it—and every dark-colored lamb, and he placed them under the care of his sons.
Dia navahany tamin’ izany andro izany ny osilahy sadika sy sada, ary izay osivavy rehetra mara sy sada, dia izay rehetra nisy fotsy, ary ny mainty rehetra teo amin’ ny ondry; dia natolony teo an-tanan’ ny zananilahy ireny.
36 Then he put a three-day journey between himself and Jacob, while Jacob was shepherding the rest of Laban’s flocks.
Ary nasiany lalan-kateloana teo anelanelan’ izy sy Jakoba; ary Jakoba niandry ny ondry aman’ osin’ i Labana sisa.
37 Jacob, however, took fresh branches of poplar, almond, and plane trees, and peeled the bark, exposing the white inner wood of the branches.
Ary Jakoba dia naka tsorakazo maro tamin’ ny hazo popola maitso sy tamin’ ny hazo lozy sy tamin’ ny hazo platana; ka nataony ofy vandana ireny hisehoan’ ny fotsy izay teo amin’ ny tsorakazo.
38 Then he set the peeled branches in the watering troughs in front of the flocks coming in to drink. So when the flocks were in heat and came to drink,
Ary ireny tsorakazo voaofiny ireny dia napetrany teo anoloan’ ny ondry aman’ osy, teo anatin’ ny tavin-drano, dia teo amin’ ny fisotroan-drano, izay nalehan’ ny ondry aman’ osy hisotro, ka nikambana teo ny lahy sy ny vavy, raha avy hisotro rano izy.
39 they mated in front of the branches. And they bore young that were streaked or speckled or spotted.
Dia nikambana tandrifin’ ny tsorakazo ny ondry aman’ osy ka niteraka sadika sy mara ary sada.
40 Jacob set apart the young, but made the rest face the streaked dark-colored sheep in Laban’s flocks. Then he set his own stock apart and did not put them with Laban’s animals.
Ary ny zanak’ ondry navahan’ i Jakoba, ary ny ondry sisa dia nataony manatrika ny sadika sy ny mainty rehetra teo amin’ ny ondry aman’ osin’ i Labana; ary natokany izay ondry aman’ osy ho azy ka tsy navelany hiharo tamin’ ny ondry aman’ osin’ i Labana.
41 Whenever the stronger females of the flock were in heat, Jacob would place the branches in the troughs, in full view of the animals, so that they would breed in front of the branches.
Ary na oviana na oviana no hikambanan’ ny ondry aman’ osy matanjaka, dia napetrak’ i Jakoba teo anatin’ ny tavin-drano teo anoloan’ ny mason’ ny ondry aman’ osy ireny tsorakazo ireny, mba hikambanany eo anilan’ ny tsorakazo.
42 But if the animals were weak, he did not set out the branches. So the weaker animals went to Laban and the stronger ones to Jacob.
Fa raha osaosa kosa ny ondry aman’ osy, dia tsy mba napetrany teo ireny; ka dia ny osaosa no an’ i Labana, fa ny matanjaka kosa no an’ i Jakoba.
43 Thus Jacob became exceedingly prosperous. He owned large flocks, maidservants and menservants, and camels and donkeys.
Dia nitombo harena indrindra ralehilahy ka nanana ondry aman’ osy betsaka ary andevovavy sy andevolahy ary rameva sy boriky.
