Genesis 29
1 And Jacob continued his journey, and went into the land of the children of the east.
Te phoeiah Jakob loh a khoa kan tih khothoeng ca rhoek kah khohmuen la cet.
2 And he looked, and behold, there was a well in the fields, and behold there, three flocks of sheep were lying by it; for out of that well they watered the flocks, and a great stone was at the mouth of the well.
Te vaengaha sawt hatah lohma kah tuito khaw, tekah tuito lamkah tui te tupinga tul dongah tuping loh a kaepah pathumlaa kol uh khaw, tuito kah a rhai kah lungrhang te khaw lawta hmuh.
3 And when all the flocks were gathered there, they rolled the stone from the mouth of the well, and watered the sheep, and put the stone again on the mouth of the well in its place.
Te la tuping boeiha tingtun vaengah tuito rhai kah lungto tea paluet uh tih boiva tea tul uh. Te phoeiah lungto te tuito kah a rhai ah amah hmuen laa khueh uh.
4 And Jacob said to them, My brethren, whence are ye? And they said, Of Haran are we.
Te dongah Jakob loh amih te, “Ka manucarhoek nangmih he me lamkah rhoek lae,” a tinah hatah, “Kaimih he Haran lamkah ni,” a ti uh.
5 And he said to them, Do ye know Laban the son of Nahor? And they said, We do know [him].
Te phoeiah amih te, “Nakhaw capa Laban tena ming uh a? a tinah hatah, “Ka ming uh ta,” a ti uh.
6 And he said to them, Is he well? And they said, [He is] well; and behold, there comes Rachel his daughter with the sheep.
Te dongah Jakob loh amih taengah, “Anih tea sading ngawn a? a tinah hatah, “A sading tih a canu Rakhel khaw boiva neh halo ke,” a ti na uh.
7 And he said, Behold, it is yet high day; it is not time that the cattle should be gathered together; water the sheep, and go, feed [them].
Te vaengah, “Kho muep om pueng ta he, boivaa tingtun tue moenih. Boiva te tuitul, te phoeiah hlah lamtah luem sak,” a ti nah.
8 And they said, We cannot until all the flocks are gathered together, and they roll the stone from the mouth of the well, and we water the sheep.
Tedae amih loh, “Tupingrhoek boeih tingtun tih tuito rhai lamkah lungto te ka paluet uh daengah ni boiva khaw tui ka tuluh. Ka paluet thai uh pawt atah ka tul uh thai pawh,” a ti uh.
9 While he was still speaking to them, Rachel came with her father's sheep, for she was a shepherdess.
Amih te a voek li vaengah Rakhel loh a napa kah tu dawn ham tu neh ha puei uh.
10 And it came to pass when Jacob saw Rachel the daughter of Laban his mother's brother, and the sheep of Laban his mother's brother, that Jacob went near, and rolled the stone from the mouth of the well, and watered the sheep of Laban his mother's brother.
Tedae Jakob loh a nupu Laban canu Rakhel te khaw, a nupu Laban kah boiva te khawa hmuh vanbangla Jakobte thoeih tih tuito rhai lamkah lungto tea paluet. Te phoeiah a nupu Laban kah boiva te tui a tul pah.
11 And Jacob kissed Rachel, and lifted up his voice and wept.
Te phoeiah Jakob loh Rakhel tea mok dae a ola huel tih rhap.
12 And Jacob told Rachel that he was a brother of her father, and that he was Rebecca's son; and she ran and told her father.
Tedae Jakob loh Rakhel taengah amahte a napa kah huiko neh Rebekah capa ni tilaa puen dongah Rakhel te yong tih a napa taengah puen.
13 And it came to pass when Laban heard the tidings of Jacob his sister's son, that he ran to meet him, and embraced him, and kissed him, and brought him to his house; and he told Laban all these things.
Laban long khaw a ngannu capa Jakob kah olthang tea yaak van neh anih doe ham yong tiha kop phoeiaha mok tih amah im laa khuen vaengah hekah olka boeih te Laban taengaha tae pah.
14 And Laban said to him, Thou art indeed my bone and my flesh. And he abode with him a month's time.
Te dongah Laban loh Jakob taengah, “Nang tah kamah rhuh neh saa pai ni,” a ti nah. Tedae anih taengaha khohnin hla la puet kho a sak.
15 And Laban said to Jacob, Because thou art my brother, shouldest thou serve me for nothing? tell me, what shall be thy wages?
Te vaengah Laban loh Jakob taengah, “Nang he kamah huiko la na om dongaha hoeihae lam a kai taengah na thohtat eh? Kai taengah na thapang te thui,” a ti nah.
16 And Laban had two daughters: the name of the elder was Leah, and the name of the younger, Rachel.
Te vaengkah Laban canu rhoi tah, a ham mingte Leah tih, a noe ming te Rakhel la om.
17 And the eyes of Leah were tender; but Rachel was of beautiful form and beautiful countenance.
Te vaengah Leah kah a mikte mongkawt dae Rakhel tah a suisak sakthen neh mueimae sakthen la om.
18 And Jacob loved Rachel, and said, I will serve thee seven years for Rachel thy younger daughter.
Tedae Jakob loh Rakhel tea lungnah dongah, “Na canua noe Rakhel ham nang taengah kum rhih ka tho ka tat ni,” a ti nah.
19 And Laban said, It is better that I give her to thee than that I should give her to another man: abide with me.
Te dongah Laban loh, “Hlang tloe te ka paek lakah nang taengah anih kan paekte then ngai tih kamah taengah khosa mai,” a ti nah.
20 And Jacob served seven years for Rachel; and they were in his eyes as single days, because he loved her.
Te vaengah Jakob loh Rakhel ham kum rhih thotat dae anih te a lungnah dongah a mik ah hnin at bangla om.
21 And Jacob said to Laban, Give [me] my wife, for my days are fulfilled, that I may go in to her.
Te phoeiah Jakob loh Laban te, “Ka khohnin khaw cup coeng tih ka yuu te m'pae lamtah anih taengah ka yalh pawn ni,” a ti nah.
22 And Laban gathered together all the men of the place, and made a feast.
Te dongah Laban loh te hmuen kah hlang boeih tea coi tih buhkoknaha saii.
23 And it came to pass in the evening, that he took Leah his daughter, and brought her to him; and he went in to her.
Tedae hlaema pha vaengah tah a canu Leah tea khuen tiha paek dongah anih taengah Jakob yalh.
24 And Laban gave to her Zilpah, his maidservant, to be maidservant to Leah his daughter.
Te phoeiah Laban loh a canu Leah taengah amah kah taengom Zilpah te taengomlaa paek.
25 And it came to pass in the morning, that behold, it was Leah. And he said to Laban, What is this thou hast done to me? Have I not served thee for Rachel? Why then hast thou deceived me?
Tedae mincang ah tah Leah te tarhaa om pah. Te dongah Laban te, “Kai taengah balaena saii he? Rakhel ham nang taengah ka thoh ka tat moenih a? Tedae balae tih kai nan phok,” a ti nah.
26 And Laban said, It is not so done in our place, to give the younger before the firstborn.
Te vaengah Laban loh, “Kaimih kho ah caming hlanaha noea paek ham tea saii noek moenih.
27 Fulfil the week [with] this one: then we will give thee the other one also, for the service that thou shalt serve me yet seven other years.
Tahae yalh he a boeih phoeiah kai ham kum rhih koepna thohtat atah tekah thohtatnah yuengla anih te nang taengah kan paek bal ni,” a ti nah.
28 And Jacob did so, and fulfilled the week [with] this one, and he gave him Rachel his daughter to be his wife.
Te dongah Jakobloh a saii van tih tekah yalha boeih phoeiah a canu Rakhel te anih yuu la amah taengaha paek.
29 And Laban gave to Rachel his daughter, Bilhah, his maidservant, to be her maidservant.
Te phoeiah Laban loh a canu Rakhel taengah amah kah taengom Bilhahte taengom laa paek.
30 And he went in also to Rachel; and he loved also Rachel more than Leah. And he served with him yet seven other years.
Te vaengah Rakhel taengaha yalh bal hatah Rakhel te Leah lakaha lungnah ngai dongah anih ham kum rhih koep thotat.
31 And when Jehovah saw that Leah was hated, he opened her womb; but Rachel was barren.
Leah te a hnoel te BOEIPAloh a hmuh dongah a bung tah a ong. Tedae Rakhel te a yaa sak.
32 And Leah conceived, and bore a son, and called his name Reuben; for she said, Because Jehovah has looked upon my affliction; for now my husband will love me.
Te dongah Leahte pumrhih tih capaa cun hatah, “BOEIPA loh kai kah phacipphabaem tea hmuh tih ka va loh kai n'lungnah taktak pawn ni,” a ti. Te dongah a mingte Reubena sui.
33 And she again conceived, and bore a son, and said, Because Jehovah has heard that I am hated, he has therefore given me this one also; and she called his name Simeon.
Te phoeiah koep pumrhih tih capaa cun hatah, “Kai n'hnoel te BOEIPAloh a yaak dongah he khaw kai m'paek,” a ti. Te dongah anih mingte Simeona sui.
34 And she again conceived, and bore a son, and said, Now this time will my husband be united to me, for I have borne him three sons; therefore was his name called Levi.
Te phoeiah koep pumrhih tih capaa cun hatah, “Anih ham capa voei thum ka cun pah dongah ka va loh kai taengah naep pawn ni,” a ti. Te dongah anih mingte Levia sui.
35 And she again conceived, and bore a son, and said, This time will I praise Jehovah; therefore she called his name Judah. And she ceased to bear.
Te phoeiah koep pumrhih tih capaa cun hatah, “BOEIPA te voei vai khaw ka uem eh?,” a ti. Te dongah anih mingte Judaha sui. Te phoeiah a ca cun te duem.
