Genesis 30
1 And when Rachel saw that she bore Jacob no children, Rachel envied her sister, and said to Jacob, Give me children, or else I die.
Tango Rasheli amonaki ete azali kobotela Jakobi bana te, akomaki na zuwa mpo na ndeko na ye ya mwasi. Boye alobaki na Jakobi: — Pesa ngai bana, noki te nakokufa.
2 And Jacob's anger was kindled against Rachel, and he said, Am I in God's stead, who has withheld from thee the fruit of the womb?
Jakobi asilikaki makasi mpo na Rasheli mpe alobaki: — Boni, ngai nakomi nde Nzambe oyo akangi yo mabota?
3 And she said, Behold, there is my maid, Bilhah: go in to her, in order that she may bear on my knees, and I may also be built up by her.
Rasheli alobaki: — Tala Bila, mwasi mowumbu na ngai; sangisa na ye nzoto mpo ete abotela ngai bana, mpe na nzela na ye, ngai mpe nakoka kotonga libota.
4 And she gave him Bilhah her maidservant as wife, and Jacob went in to her.
Rasheli apesaki ye Bila, mwasi mosali na ye, mpo ete akoma mwasi na ye. Jakobi asangisaki na ye nzoto,
5 And Bilhah conceived, and bore Jacob a son.
mpe Bila akomaki na zemi. Abotelaki Jakobi mwana mobali.
6 And Rachel said, God has done me justice, and has also heard my voice, and given me a son; therefore she called his name Dan.
Rasheli alobaki: « Nzambe alongisi ngai, ayoki kolela na ngai mpe apesi ngai mwana mobali. » Boye apesaki ye kombo « Dani. »
7 And Bilhah Rachel's maidservant again conceived, and bore Jacob a second son.
Sima na yango, Bila, mwasi mosali ya Rasheli, azwaki lisusu zemi mpe abotelaki Jakobi mwana mobali ya mibale.
8 And Rachel said, Wrestlings of God have I wrestled with my sister, and have prevailed; and she called his name Naphtali.
Rasheli alobaki: « Nabundisi ndeko na ngai ya mwasi bitumba ya Nzambe mpe nalongi. » Boye apesaki ye kombo « Nefitali. »
9 And when Leah saw that she had ceased to bear, she took Zilpah her maidservant and gave her to Jacob as wife.
Tango Lea amonaki ete azali kobota lisusu te, azwaki Zilipa, mwasi mosali na ye, mpe apesaki ye epai ya Jakobi mpo ete akoma mwasi na ye.
10 And Zilpah Leah's maidservant bore Jacob a son.
Zilipa, mwasi mosali ya Lea, abotelaki Jakobi mwana mobali.
11 And Leah said, Fortunately! and she called his name Gad.
Lea alobaki: « Oyo nde esengo! » Boye apesaki ye kombo « Gadi. »
12 And Zilpah Leah's maidservant bore Jacob a second son.
Sima na yango, Zilipa, mwasi mosali ya Lea, abotelaki Jakobi mwana mobali ya mibale.
13 And Leah said, Happy am I; for the daughters will call me blessed! and she called his name Asher.
Lea alobaki: « Oyo esengo ya ndenge nini nakomi na yango! Pamba te basi bakobenga ngai moto ya esengo. » Boye apesaki ye kombo « Aseri. »
14 And Reuben went out in the days of wheat-harvest, and found mandrakes in the fields; and he brought them to his mother Leah. And Rachel said to Leah, Give me, I pray thee, of thy son's mandrakes.
Na eleko ya kokata ble, Ribeni akendeki na bilanga mpe amonaki bambuma ya mandragore; amemelaki yango Lea, mama na ye. Bongo Rasheli alobaki na Lea: — Nabondeli yo, pesa ngai ndambo ya bambuma ya mandragore oyo mwana na yo amemaki.
15 And she said to her, Is it [too] little that thou hast taken my husband, that thou wilt take my son's mandrakes also? And Rachel said, Therefore he shall lie with thee to-night for thy son's mandrakes.
Kasi Lea azongiselaki ye: — Boni, ndenge ozwi mobali na ngai, ekoki te? Olingi lisusu kozwa bambuma ya mandragore ya mwana na ngai? Rasheli alobaki na ye: — Malamu! Soki opesi ngai bambuma ya mandragore ya mwana na yo, Jakobi akolala epai na yo na butu ya lelo.
16 And when Jacob came from the fields in the evening, Leah went out to meet him, and said, Thou must come in to me, for indeed I have hired thee with my son's mandrakes. And he lay with her that night.
Na pokwa, wana Jakobi awutaki bilanga, Lea akendeki kokutana na ye mpe alobaki na ye: « Okolala epai na ngai, pamba te napesi bambuma ya mandragore ya mwana na ngai mpo na yo. » Boye Jakobi asangisaki na ye nzoto na butu wana.
17 And God hearkened to Leah, and she conceived, and bore Jacob a fifth son.
Nzambe ayokelaki Lea mawa, akomaki na zemi mpe abotelaki Jakobi mwana mobali ya mitano.
18 And Leah said, God has given me my hire, because I have given my maidservant to my husband; and she called his name Issachar.
Lea alobaki: « Nzambe apesi ngai lifuti na ngai lokola napesaki mosali na ngai ya mwasi epai ya mobali na ngai. » Boye apesaki ye kombo « Isakari. »
19 And Leah again conceived, and bore Jacob a sixth son;
Lea azwaki lisusu zemi mpe abotelaki Jakobi mwana mobali ya motoba.
20 and Leah said, God has endowed me with a good dowry; this time will my husband dwell with me, because I have borne him six sons. And she called his name Zebulun.
Lea alobaki: « Nzambe apesi ngai likabo ya motuya. Sik’oyo, mobali na ngai akopesa ngai lokumu mpo ete naboteli ye bana mibali motoba. » Boye apesaki ye kombo « Zabuloni. »
21 And afterwards she bore a daughter, and called her name Dinah.
Sima na mikolo, abotaki lisusu mwana mwasi mpe apesaki ye kombo « Dina. »
22 And God remembered Rachel, and God listened to her, and opened her womb.
Nzambe akaniselaki Rasheli, ayokaki kolela na ye mpe afungolaki ye mabota.
23 And she conceived, and bore a son, and said, God has taken away my reproach.
Akomaki na zemi, abotaki mwana mobali mpe alobaki: « Nzambe alongoli soni na ngai. »
24 And she called his name Joseph; and said, Jehovah will add to me another son.
Apesaki ye kombo « Jozefi, » mpe alobaki: « Tika ete Yawe abakisela ngai mwana mosusu ya mobali! »
25 And it came to pass when Rachel had borne Joseph, that Jacob said to Laban, Send me away, that I may go to my place and to my country.
Sima na Rasheli kobota Jozefi, Jakobi alobaki na Labani: — Pesa ngai nzela mpo ete nazonga na mboka na ngai.
26 Give [me] my wives for whom I have served thee, and my children; that I may go away, for thou knowest my service which I have served thee.
Pesa ngai mpe basi mpe bana na ngai, ba-oyo mpo na bango nasaleli yo; bongo nakokende na ngai. Pamba te oyebi malamu mosala makasi oyo nasaleli yo.
27 And Laban said to him, I pray thee, if I have found favour in thine eyes — I have discovered that Jehovah has blessed me for thy sake.
Kasi Labani alobaki na ye: — Soki nazwi ngolu na miso na yo, nabondeli yo, kokende te; pamba te nasosoli na bosoloka ete Yawe apamboli ngai na nzela na yo.
28 And he said, Appoint to me thy wages, and I will give it.
Abakisaki: — Katela ngai lifuti na yo mpe nakofuta yo yango.
29 And he said to him, Thou knowest how I have served thee, and what thy cattle has become with me.
Jakobi alobaki na ye: — Oyebi yo moko ndenge nini ngai nasaleli yo mpe ndenge nini, na nzela na ngai, bibwele na yo ekomi ebele.
30 For it was little that thou hadst before me, and it is increased to a multitude, and Jehovah has blessed thee from the time I came; and now, when shall I also provide for my house?
Moke oyo ozalaki na yango, liboso ete ngai naya, ekomi ebele penza. Yawe apamboli yo na nzela na ngai. Kasi sik’oyo, nakosala tango nini mpo na libota na ngai moko?
31 And he said, What shall I give thee? And Jacob said, Thou shalt not give me anything. If thou doest this for me, I will again feed [and] keep thy flock:
Labani atunaki ye: — Nasengeli kopesa yo nini? Jakobi azongisaki: — Okopesa ngai eloko te. Kasi soki olingi kosala likambo oyo mpo na ngai, nakokoba koleisa mpe kobatela bibwele na yo.
32 I will pass through all thy flock to-day, to remove thence all the speckled and spotted sheep, and all the brown lambs, and the spotted and speckled among the goats; and [that] shall be my hire.
Lelo, nakoleka na kati-kati ya bibwele na yo, nakolongola kati na bana meme, bameme nyonso ya madodo-madodo mpe oyo ezali ya banzela-nzela ya mwindo; mpe lisusu kati na bantaba nyonso ya madodo-madodo mpe ya banzela-nzela ya pembe. Wana nde ezala lifuti na ngai.
33 And my righteousness shall answer for me hereafter, when thou comest about my hire, before thy face: all that is not speckled and spotted among the goats, and brown among the lambs, let that be stolen with me.
Boye bosembo na ngai ekomonana sima na mikolo tango okoya kotala lifuti na ngai. Soki omoni epai na ngai ntaba ezanga madodo to ezanga banzela ya pembe to mwana meme ezanga madodo to ezanga banzela ya mwindo, wana ekozala lokola nayibi yango.
34 And Laban said, Well, let it be according to thy word.
Labani alobaki: — Iyo! Tika ete ezala ndenge olobi.
35 And he removed that day the he-goats that were ringstraked and spotted, and all the she-goats that were speckled and spotted, every one that had white in it, and all the brown among the lambs, and gave [them] into the hand of his sons.
Kaka na mokolo wana, Labani alongolaki kati na bibwele, bantaba ya mibali ya madodo-madodo mpe ya banzela-nzela ya pembe, bantaba nyonso ya basi ya madodo-madodo mpe ya banzela-nzela ya pembe, mpe bibwele nyonso oyo ezalaki mwa pembe mpe mwa mwindo kati na bana meme. Apesaki yango na maboko ya bana na ye ya mibali.
36 And he put three days' journey between himself and Jacob. And Jacob fed the rest of Laban's flock.
Sima, Labani atambolaki mikolo misato mpo na kokabwana na Jakobi, wana Jakobi akobaki kobatela ndambo ya bibwele ya Labani oyo etikalaki.
37 And Jacob took fresh rods of white poplar, almond-tree, and maple; and peeled off white stripes in them, uncovering the white which was on the rods.
Jakobi azwaki bitape ya mobesu ya nzete ya pepiliye, ya amande mpe ya platane.
38 And he set the rods which he had peeled before the flock, in the troughs at the watering-places where the flock came to drink, and they were ardent when they came to drink.
Bongo atiaki kati na basani mpe kati na bimelelo, liboso ya bibwele, bitape oyo apalolaki, na esika oyo bibwele ezalaki koya komela mayi. Wana bibwele ya basi ezalaki koyoka posa ya mayi, ezalaki mpe koyoka posa ya kosangisa nzoto na bibwele ya mibali.
39 And the flock was ardent before the rods; and the flock brought forth ringstraked, speckled, and spotted.
Boye, bibwele ezalaki koya kosangisa nzoto liboso ya bitape wana; mpe tango ezalaki kobota, bana na yango ezalaki na banzela-nzela ya pembe, banzela-nzela ya mwindo mpe madodo-madodo.
40 And Jacob separated the lambs, and set the faces of the flock toward the ringstraked, and all the brown in the flock of Laban; and he made himself separate flocks, and did not put them with Laban's flock.
Jakobi atiaki pembeni bana meme mpe atindaki yango na esika oyo bana meme ya nzela-nzela mpe ya mwa mwindo ezalaki; pamba te yango ezalaki kobotama mingi kati na bibwele ya Labani. Ezali boye nde akomaki na bibwele ya ye moko oyo asangisaki te na bibwele ya Labani.
41 And it came to pass whensoever the strong cattle were ardent, that Jacob laid the rods before the eyes of the flock in the gutters, that they might become ardent among the rods;
Tango nyonso bibwele ya basi, oyo ezalaki na nzoto minene, ezalaki na posa ya kosangisa nzoto, Jakobi azalaki kotia liboso ya bibwele yango bitape ya nzete kati na basani oyo yango ezalaki komelela mayi mpo ete esangisa nzoto pembeni ya bitape wana.
42 but when the sheep were feeble, he put [them] not in; so the feeble were Laban's, and the strong Jacob's.
Kasi, na esika yango, azalaki kotia te bibwele oyo ekonda. Boye bibwele oyo ekonda ezalaki ya Labani, mpe oyo ya minene ezalaki ya Jakobi.
43 And the man increased very, very much, and had much cattle, and bondwomen, and bondmen, and camels, and asses.
Na nzela wana nde moto oyo akomaki na bozwi mingi koleka. Azwaki bibwele ebele, basali ya basi mpe ya mibali, bashamo mpe ba-ane.
