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.
E vendo Raquel que não dava filhos a Jacó, teve inveja de sua irmã, e dizia a Jacó: Dá-me filhos, ou senão, morro.
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?
E Jacó se irritava contra Raquel, e dizia: Estou eu em lugar de Deus, que te impediu o fruto de teu ventre?
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.
E ela disse: Eis aqui minha serva Bila; deita-te com ela, e dará à luz sobre meus joelhos, e eu também terei filhos por meio dela.
4 And she gave him Balla her maid, for a wife to him; and Jacob went in to her.
Assim lhe deu a Bila sua serva por mulher; e Jacó se deitou com ela.
5 And Balla, Rachel's maid, conceived, and bore Jacob a son.
E concebeu Bila, e deu à luz a Jacó um filho.
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.
E disse Raquel: Julgou-me Deus, e também ouviu minha voz, e deu-me um filho. Portanto chamou seu nome Dã.
7 And Balla, Rachel's maid, conceived yet again, and bore a second son to Jacob.
E concebeu outra vez Bila, a serva de Raquel, e deu à luz o segundo filho a Jacó.
8 And Rachel said, God has helped me, and I contended with my sister and prevailed; and she called his name, Nephthalim.
E disse Raquel: Com lutas de Deus disputei com minha irmã, e venci. E chamou seu nome Naftali.
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.
E vendo Lia que havia deixado de dar à luz, tomou a Zilpa sua serva, e deu-a a Jacó por mulher.
10 And Zelpha the maid of Lea conceived, and bore Jacob a son.
E Zilpa, serva de Lia, deu à luz a Jacó um filho.
11 And Lea said, [It is] happily: and she called his name, Gad.
E disse Lia: Veio a boa sorte. E chamou seu nome Gade.
12 And Zelpha the maid of Lea conceived yet again, and bore Jacob a second son.
E Zilpa, a sirva de Lia, deu à luz outro filho a Jacó.
13 And Lea said, I am blessed, for the women will pronounce me blessed; and she called his name, Aser.
E disse Lia: Para alegria minha; porque as mulheres me chamarão de feliz; e chamou seu nome Aser.
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.
E foi Rúben em tempo da colheita dos trigos, e achou mandrágoras no campo, e trouxe-as a sua mãe Lia; e disse Raquel a Lia: Rogo-te que me dês das mandrágoras de teu filho.
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.
E ela respondeu: É pouco que tenhas tomado meu marido, mas também levarás as mandrágoras de meu filho? E disse Raquel: Ele, pois, dormirá contigo esta noite pelas mandrágoras de teu filho.
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.
E quando Jacó voltava do campo à tarde, Lia saiu ao encontro dele, e lhe disse: Deitarás comigo, porque em verdade te aluguei em troca das mandrágoras de meu filho. E dormiu com ela naquela noite.
17 And God listened to Lea, and she conceived, and bore Jacob a fifth son.
E ouviu Deus a Lia; e concebeu, e deu à luz a Jacó o quinto filho.
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.
E disse Lia: Deus me deu minha recompensa, porque dei minha serva a meu marido; por isso chamou seu nome Issacar.
19 And Lea conceived again, and bore Jacob a sixth son.
E concebeu Lia outra vez, e deu à luz o sexto filho a Jacó.
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.
E disse Lia: Deus me deu uma boa dádiva: agora meu marido morará comigo, porque lhe dei seis filhos; e chamou seu nome Zebulom.
21 And after this she bore a daughter; and she called her name, Dina.
E depois deu à luz uma filha, e chamou seu nome Diná.
22 And God remembered Rachel, and God listened to her, and he opened her womb.
E lembrou-se Deus de Raquel, e Deus a ouviu, e abriu sua madre.
23 And she conceived, and bore Jacob a son; and Rachel said, God has taken away my reproach.
E concebeu, e deu à luz um filho: e disse: Deus tirou minha humilhação;
24 And she called his name Joseph, saying, Let God add to me another son.
E chamou seu nome José, dizendo: Acrescente-me o SENHOR outro filho.
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.
E aconteceu, quando Raquel havia dado à luz a José, que Jacó disse a Labão: Permite-me ir embora, e irei a meu lugar, e à minha terra.
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.
Dá-me minhas mulheres e meus filhos, pelas quais servi contigo, e deixa-me ir; pois tu sabes os serviços que te fiz.
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.
E Labão lhe respondeu: Ache eu agora favor em teus olhos, e fica-te; experimentei que o SENHOR me abençoou por tua causa.
28 Appoint me your wages, and I will give [them].
E disse: Define-me teu salário, que eu o darei.
29 And Jacob said, You know in what things I have served you, and how many cattle of your are with me.
E ele respondeu: Tu sabes como te servi, e como esteve teu gado comigo;
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?
Porque pouco tinhas antes de minha vinda, e cresceu em grande número; e o SENHOR te abençoou com minha chegada: e agora quando tenho de fazer eu também por minha própria casa?
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.
E ele disse: Que te darei? E respondeu Jacó: Não me dês nada; se fizeres por mim isto, voltarei a apascentar tuas ovelhas.
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.
Eu passarei hoje por todas tuas ovelhas, pondo à parte todas as reses manchadas e de cor variada, e todas as reses de cor escura entre as ovelhas, e as manchadas e de cor variada entre as cabras; e isto será meu salário.
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.
Assim responderá por mim minha justiça amanhã quando me vier meu salário diante de ti: toda a que não for pintada nem manchada nas cabras e de cor escura nas ovelhas minhas, se me há de ter para furto.
34 And Laban said to him, Let it be according to your word.
E disse Labão: Eis que seja como tu dizes.
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.
Porém ele separou naquele mesmo dia os machos de bode rajados e manchados; e todas as cabras manchadas e de cor variada, e toda rês que tinha em si algo de branco, e todas as de cor escura entre as ovelhas, e as pôs em mãos de seus filhos;
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.
E pôs três dias de caminho entre si e Jacó: e Jacó apascentava as outras ovelhas de Labão.
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.
E tomou para si Jacó varas de álamo verdes, e de aveleira, e de plátano, e descascou nelas mondaduras brancas, descobrindo assim o branco das varas.
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.
E pôs as varas que havia riscado nos bebedouros, diante do gado, nos bebedouros da água aonde vinham a beber as ovelhas, as quais se aqueciam vindo a beber.
39 So the cattle conceived at the rods, and the cattle brought forth [young] speckled, and streaked and spotted with ash-coloured [spots].
E concebiam as ovelhas diante das varas, e geravam crias listradas, pintadas e salpicadas de diversas cores.
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.
E separava Jacó os cordeiros, e os punha com seu rebanho, os listradas, e tudo o que era escuro no rebanho de Labão. E punha seu rebanho à parte, e não o punha com as ovelhas de Labão.
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.
E sucedia que quantas vezes se aqueciam as fortes, Jacó punha as varas diante das ovelhas nos bebedouros, para que concebessem à vista das varas.
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.
E quando vinham as ovelhas fracas, não as punha: assim eram as fracas para Labão, e as fortes para Jacó.
43 And the man became very rich, and he had many cattle, and oxen, and servants, and maidservants, and camels, and asses.
E cresceu o homem muito, e teve muitas ovelhas, e servas, servos, camelos, e asnos.
