Genesis 30
1 And Rachel having perceived that she bore Jacob no children, was jealous of her sister; and said to Jacob, Give me children; and if not, I shall die.
Tedae Rakhel loh Jakob ham ca cun pawh tila a hmuh vaengah Rakhel te a maya taengah thatlai. Te dongah Jakob la, “Kai he capa m'pae lah, te pawt koinih ka duek ni,” a ti nah.
2 And Jacob was angry with Rachel, and said to her, Am I in the place of God, who has deprived you of the fruit of the womb?
Te dongah Jakob kah a thintoek te Rakhel taengah sai tih, “Kai he nang bung kah a thaih aka hloh Pathen yueng la ka om a?,” a ti nah.
3 And Rachel said to Jacob, Behold my handmaid Balla, go in to her, and she shall bear upon my knees, and I also shall have children by her.
Tedae, “Ka taengom Bilhah taengah kun mai saw he. Te daengah ni ka khuklu ah ca han sak vetih anih lamloh kai khaw ka thoh eh?,” a ti nah.
4 And she gave him Balla her maid, for a wife to him; and Jacob went in to her.
Te dongah a taengom Bilhah te a yuu la a paek tih Jakob loh anih taengah ip.
5 And Balla, Rachel's maid, conceived, and bore Jacob a son.
Bilhah khaw pumrhih tih Jakob ham ca a cun pah.
6 And Rachel said, God has given judgement for me, and listened to my voice, and has given me a son; therefore she called his name, Dan.
Te vaengah Rakhel loh, “Pathen loh kai n'yan cakhaw ka ol te a yaak bal tih kai he ca tongpa m'paek coeng,” a ti. Te dongah anih ming te Dan a sui.
7 And Balla, Rachel's maid, conceived yet again, and bore a second son to Jacob.
Te phoeiah koep pumrhih tih Rakhel kah taengom Bilhah loh Jakob ham capa pabae te a cun pah.
8 And Rachel said, God has helped me, and I contended with my sister and prevailed; and she called his name, Nephthalim.
Te vaengah Rakhel loh, “Pathen kah rhaknah dongah ka maya te ka hnueih tih ka na coeng,” a ti. Te dongah anih ming te Naphtali a sui.
9 And Lea saw that she ceased from bearing, and she took Zelpha her maid, and gave her to Jacob for a wife; and he went in to her.
Tedae Leah loh ca cun ham bawt coeng tila a hmuh dongah a taengom Zilpah te a khuen tih Jakob taengah a yuu la a paek.
10 And Zelpha the maid of Lea conceived, and bore Jacob a son.
Te dongah Leah kah taengom Zilpah loh Jakob ham capa a cun pah.
11 And Lea said, [It is] happily: and she called his name, Gad.
Te vaengah Leah loh, “Yoekam loh a loh,” a ti dongah anih ming te Gad a sui.
12 And Zelpha the maid of Lea conceived yet again, and bore Jacob a second son.
Te phoeiah Leah kah taengom Zilpah loh Jakob ham capa pabae a cun pah hatah,
13 And Lea said, I am blessed, for the women will pronounce me blessed; and she called his name, Aser.
Leah loh, “Kai bahoeng ka omngaih, te dongah tanu rhoek loh kai he n'uem uh ni,” a ti tih anih ming te Asher a sak.
14 And Ruben went in the day of barley harvest, and found apples of mandrakes in the field, and brought them to his mother Lea; and Rachel said to Lea her sister, Give me of your son's mandrakes.
Cang ah tue vaengah Reuben te a caeh hantah lohma ah hloih a hmuh tih a manu Leah taengla a khuen. Te vaengah Rakhel loh Leah taengah, “Na capa kah hloih te kai hamla khueh mai,” a ti nah.
15 And Lea said, [Is it] not enough for you that you have taken my husband, will you also take my son's mandrakes? And Rachel said, Not so: let him lie with you tonight for your son's mandrakes.
Tedae Leah loh anih la, “Ka va te nan rhawt tih rhoeh dae ka ca kah hloih te khaw na lo a ya? a ti nah hatah Rakhel loh, “Then, na capa kah hloih yueng la khoyin ah nang taengla yalh saeh,” a ti nah.
16 And Jacob came in out of the field at even; and Lea went forth to meet him, and said, You shall come in to me this day, for I have hired you for my son's mandrakes; and he lay with her that night.
Te dongah pong lamkah Jakob halo hlaem ah anih aka doe la Leah te cet tih, “Ka capa kah hloih neh nang a paang la kan paang coeng dongah kai taengah na ip ni,” a ti nah. Te dongah tekah khoyin ah anih taengla yalh.
17 And God listened to Lea, and she conceived, and bore Jacob a fifth son.
Tedae Pathen loh Leah te a yaak dongah pumrhih tih Jakob ham a panga nah capa a cun pah.
18 And Lea said, God has given me my reward, because I gave my maid to my husband; and she called his name Issachar, which is, Reward.
Te vaengah Leah loh, “Ka va taengah kamah taengom ka paek dongah kai khaw Pathen loh thapang m'paek,” a ti tih anih ming te Issakhar a sui.
19 And Lea conceived again, and bore Jacob a sixth son.
Te phoeiah Leah te koep pumrhih tih Jakob ham parhuk nah capa a cun.
20 And Lea said, God has given me a good gift in this time; my husband will choose me, for I have born him six sons: and she called his name, Zabulon.
Te vaengah Leah loh, “Pathen loh kai he kutdoe then koep m'paek tih anih ham capa parhuk ka cun pah. Te dongah ka va loh kai n'hmaiben pawn ni,” a ti tih a ming te Zebulun a sui.
21 And after this she bore a daughter; and she called her name, Dina.
Te phoeiah a hnuk la canu a cun tih a ming te Dinah a sui.
22 And God remembered Rachel, and God listened to her, and he opened her womb.
Tedae Pathen loh Rakhel te a poek. Te dongah Pathen loh anih ol te a hnatun tih a bung te a ong pah.
23 And she conceived, and bore Jacob a son; and Rachel said, God has taken away my reproach.
Te dongah pumrhih tih capa a cun hatah, “Kai kah kokhahnah he Pathen loh a coi sak,” a ti.
24 And she called his name Joseph, saying, Let God add to me another son.
“BOEIPA loh kai ham capa a tloe han thap saeh,” a ti tih anih ming te Joseph a sui.
25 And it came to pass when Rachel had born Joseph, Jacob said to Laban, Send me away, that I may go to my place and to my land.
Tedae Rakhel loh Joseph a sak phoeiah tah Jakob loh Laban taengah, “Kai he kamah hmuen la, kamah khohmuen ah pongpa ham n'tueih laeh.
26 Restore my wives and my children, for whom I have served you, that I may depart, for you know the service wherewith I have served you.
Ka yuu rhoek neh ka ca rhoek te m'pae. Amih ham nang taengah ka thotat tih ka thohtatnah khaw nang ham ni ka thohtat tila na ming coeng dongah ka cet pawn ni,” a ti nah.
27 And Laban said to him, If I have found grace in your sight, I would augur [well], for the Lord has blessed me at your coming in.
Tedae anih te Laban loh, “Nang kong ah BOEIPA loh ka yoe han then sak tila ka hmuhming. Nang mikhmuh ah mikdaithen la ka om atah bet om mai dae,” a ti nah.
28 Appoint me your wages, and I will give [them].
Te phoeiah, “Kai taengkah na thapang te mingpha sak lamtah kan paek bitni,” a ti nah.
29 And Jacob said, You know in what things I have served you, and how many cattle of your are with me.
Te dongah Jakob loh Laban te, “Nang taengah ka thohtat te khaw, na boiva loh kai taengah a om te khaw na ming.
30 For it was little you had before my time, and it is increased to a multitude, and the Lord God has blessed you since my coming; now then, when shall I set up also my own house?
Ka mikhmuh ah nang kah a yol ni a om dae a cungkuem te pungtai coeng. Te dongah BOEIPA loh nang te ka kho kung ah yoethen m'paek. Tedae me vaengah lae kai loh ka imkhui ham khaw ka saii coeng?,” a ti nah.
31 And Laban said to him, What shall I give you? and Jacob said to him, You shall not give me anything; if you will do this thing for me, I will again tend your flocks and keep them.
Te vaengah, “Nang te balae kan paek eh?,” a ti nah. Jakob loh, “Kai he pakhat khaw m'pae boeh, he ol he kai hamla nan khueh atah, ka mael neh na boiva te ka luem puei vetih ka dawn mai bitni.
32 Let all your sheep pass by today, and separate thence every grey sheep amongst the rams, and every one that is speckled and spotted amongst the goats—[this] shall be my reward.
Tihnin ah nang kah boiva boeih taengla ka cet eh. Te lamkah tu boeih te rhikrhak neh a tairhi khaw, tuca khuikah tu pol boeih khaw, maae khuiah a tairhi neh rhikrhak khaw ka khoe saeh lamtah ka thapang la om saeh.
33 And my righteousness shall answer for me on the morrow, for it is my reward before you: whatever shall not be spotted and speckled amongst the goats, and grey amongst the rams, shall be stolen with me.
Na mikhmuh ah maae khui lamkah a rhikrhak neh a tairhi pawt boeih, tu khui lamkah a pol pawt te ka taengla a huen khaw, thangvuen khohnin kah ka thapang dongah na pai vaengah, kai yueng la ka duengnah thui nawn saeh.
34 And Laban said to him, Let it be according to your word.
Te dongah Laban loh, “Namah olka bangla a om saeh ne,” a ti nah.
35 And he separated in that day the spotted and speckled he-goats, and all the spotted and speckled she-goats, and all that was grey amongst the rams, and every one that was white amongst them, and he gave them into the hand of his sons.
Te dongah amah khohnin ah maaetal a rhangcam neh a tairhi te khaw, maae nu rhikrhak neh a tairhi boeih te khaw, a soah aka bok boeih neh tuca khuikah aka pol boeih te a khoe tih a capa kut ah a tloeng pah.
36 And he set a distance of a three days' journey between them and Jacob. And Jacob tended the cattle of Laban that were left behind.
Te phoeiah hnin thum longcaeh te amah neh Jakob laklo ah hnalak a khueh. Te daengah Jakob loh Laban kah boiva la aka sueng rhoek te a luem sak.
37 And Jacob took to himself green rods of storax tree and walnut and plane tree; and Jacob peeled in them white stripes; and as he drew off the green, the white stripe which he had made appeared alternate on the rods.
Tedae Jakob loh amah ham khabok neh yungkha neh hlimbok kah a hlaeng te thingsup la a loh. Te phoeiah a dakda aka bok te a hlih tih cungkui dongah a bok la a tai.
38 And he laid the rods which he had peeled, in the hollows of the watering-troughs, that whenever the cattle should come to drink, as they should have come to drink before the rods, the cattle might conceive at the rods.
Te phoeiah thing hlaeng a baeh te tuilong ah khaw, tuisoi tui taengah khaw, tui ok hamla boiva a kun nah ah khaw, boiva hmai ah khaw a khueh pah. Te dongah tui o la a caeh uh vaengah a pacu uh.
39 So the cattle conceived at the rods, and the cattle brought forth [young] speckled, and streaked and spotted with ash-coloured [spots].
Boiva te cungkui taengah a pacu tih boiva khaw a rhangcam, rhikrhak la thang tih a tairhi pah.
40 And Jacob separated the lambs, and set before the sheep a speckled ram, and every variegated one amongst the lambs, and he separated flocks for himself alone, and did not mingle them with the sheep of Laban.
Te vaengah Jakob loh tuca rhoek te a hoep tih Laban kah boiva khuikah a rhangcam neh aka pol boeih taengla boiva kah a hmai a khueh. Te phoeiah amah loh amah kah tuping te amah la hloep a khueh. Tedae te rhoek te Laban kah boiva taengah khueh pawh.
41 And it came to pass in the time wherein the cattle became pregnant, conceiving in the belly, Jacob put the rods before the cattle in the troughs, that they might conceive by the rods.
Te phoeiah om tih boiva loh a pa a cuk takuem vaengah a tanglue te tah cungkui taengah a pa a cuk sak ham Jakob loh cungkui te tuilong kah boiva hmuh ah a khueh.
42 But he did not put them in [indiscriminately] whenever the cattle happened to bring forth, but the unmarked ones were Laban's, and the marked ones were Jacob's.
Tedae boiva te a rhae ngai atah a khueh pah pawt dongah a rhae rhoek te Laban ham om tih a tanglue te Jakob ham vik om.
43 And the man became very rich, and he had many cattle, and oxen, and servants, and maidservants, and camels, and asses.
Te dongah tekah hlang tah lut lut boei tih anih taengah boiva khaw, taengom neh sal khaw, kalauk neh laak khaw muep om.
