Genesis 30
1 And Rachel, seeing herself without children, envied her sister, and said to her husband: Give me children, otherwise I shall die.
Kad nu Rahēle redzēja, ka tā Jēkabam nedzemdēja, tad tā apskauda savu māsu un sacīja uz Jēkabu: dabū man bērnus, bet ja ne, tad man jāmirst.
2 And Jacob being angry with her, answered: Am I as God, who hath deprived thee of the fruit of thy womb?
Tad Jēkabs apskaitās uz Rahēli un sacīja: vai es esmu Dieva vietā, kas tev miesas augļus liedzis?
3 But she said: I have here my servant Bala: go in unto her, that she may bear upon my knees, and I may have children by her.
Un tā sacīja: redzi, še ir mana kalpone Bilha, ej pie tās, ka tā uz manu klēpi dzemdē, un es arīdzan caur viņu augļojos.
4 And she gave him Bala in marriage: who,
Un viņa tam deva Bilu, savu kalponi par sievu, un Jēkabs gāja pie tās.
5 When her husband had gone in unto her, conceived and bore a son.
Un Bilha tapa grūta un dzemdēja Jēkabam dēlu.
6 And Rachel said: The Lord hath judged for me, and hath heard my voice, giving me a son, and therefore she called his name Dan.
Tad Rahēle sacīja: Dievs man tiesu ir iznesis un arī manu balsi paklausījis un man dēlu devis. Tādēļ tā viņa vārdu nosauca Danu.
7 And again Bala conceived and bore another,
Un Bilha, Rahēles kalpone, tapa atkal grūta un dzemdēja Jēkabam otru dēlu.
8 For whom Rachel said: God hath compared me with my sister, and I have prevailed: and she called him Nephtali.
Tad Rahēle sacīja: Dieva cīnīšanos esmu cīnījusies ar savu māsu un arī uzvarējusi, - un nosauca viņa vārdu Naftali.
9 Lia, perceiving that she had left off bearing, gave Zelpha her handmaid to her husband.
Kad nu Lea redzēja, ka bija mitējusies dzemdēt, tad tā arīdzan ņēma savu kalponi Zilfu un to Jēkabam deva par sievu.
10 And when she had conceived and brought forth a son,
Un Zilfa, Leas kalpone, dzemdēja Jēkabam dēlu.
11 She said: Happily. And therefore called his name Gad.
Tad Lea sacīja: laime, - un nosauca viņa vārdu Gadu.
12 Zelpha also bore another.
Un Zilfa, Leas kalpone, dzemdēja Jēkabam otru dēlu.
13 And Lia said: This is for my happiness: for women will call me blessed. Therefore she called him Aser.
Tad Lea sacīja: labi man, jo meitas mani teiks svētīgu, - un tā nosauca viņa vārdu Ašeru.
14 And Ruben, going out in the time of the wheat harvest into the field, found mandrakes: which he brought to his mother Lia. And Rachel said: Give me part of thy son’s mandrakes.
Un Rūbens gāja kviešu pļaujamā laikā un atrada dudaīm (mīlestības ābols) laukā un atnesa tos Leai, savai mātei, un Rahēle sacīja uz Leū: dod man jel no tava dēla dudaīm.
15 She answered: Dost thou think it a small matter, that thou hast taken my husband from me, unless thou take also my son’s mandrakes? Rachel said: He shall sleep with thee this night, for thy son’s mandrakes.
Un viņa uz to sacīja: vai tā ir maza lieta, ka tu manu vīru esi atņēmusi, un tu arī mana dēla dudaīm gribi ņemt? Tad Rahēle sacīja: tam būs šo nakti pie tevis gulēt par tava dēla dudaīm.
16 And when Jacob returned at even from the field, Lia went out to meet him, and said: Thou shalt come in unto me, because I have hired thee for my son’s mandrakes. And he slept with her that night.
Kad nu Jēkabs vakarā no lauka nāca, tad Lea tam izgāja pretī un sacīja: tev būs nākt pie manis, jo es tevi ar maksu esmu saderējusi par sava dēla dudaīm. Un viņš pie tās gulēja tanī naktī.
17 And God heard her prayers: and she conceived and bore the fifth son,
Un Dievs paklausīja Leū, un tā tapa grūta un dzemdēja Jēkabam piekto dēlu.
18 And said: God hath given me a reward, because I gave my handmaid to my husband. And she called his name Issachar.
Tad Lea sacīja: Dievs man to atmaksājis, ka es savam vīram esmu devusi savu kalponi, - un tā nosauca viņa vārdu Īsašaru.
19 And Lia conceived again, and bore the sixth son,
Un Lea tapa atkal grūta un dzemdēja Jēkabam sesto dēlu.
20 And said: God hath endowed me with a good dowry: this turn also my husband will be with me, because I have borne him six sons: and therefore she called his name Zabulon.
Tad Lea sacīja: Dievs mani apdāvinājis ar labu dāvanu, nu mans vīrs pie manis dzīvos, tāpēc, ka es viņam esmu dzemdējusi sešus dēlus - un tā nosauca viņa vārdu Zebulonu.
21 After whom she bore a daughter, named Dina.
Un pēc tam viņa dzemdēja meitu un nosauca viņas vārdu Dinu.
22 The Lord also remembering Rachel, heard her, and opened her womb.
Un Dievs pieminēja Rahēli un paklausīja viņu un darīja viņu auglīgu.
23 And she conceived, and bore a son, saying: God hath taken away my reproach.
Un viņa tapa grūta un dzemdēja dēlu un sacīja: Dievs manu apsmieklu no manis atņēmis.
24 And she called his name Joseph, saying: The Lord give me also another son.
Un tā nosauca viņa vārdu Jāzepu, sacīdama: lai Tas Kungs mani apdāvina vēl ar citu dēlu.
25 And when Joseph was born, Jacob said to his father in law: Send me away that I may return into my country, and to my land.
Un notikās, kad Rahēle Jāzepu bija dzemdējusi, tad Jēkabs sacīja uz Lābanu: atlaid mani, ka es noeju uz savu vietu savā zemē,
26 Give me my wives, and my children, for whom I have served thee, that I may depart: thou knowest the service that I have rendered thee.
Dod man manas sievas un manus bērnus, kuru dēļ tev esmu kalpojis, tad es iešu, jo tu gan zini to kalpošanu, ko tev esmu kalpojis.
27 Laban said to him: Let me find favour in thy sight: I have learned by experience, that God hath blessed me for thy sake.
Un Lābans uz to sacīja: kaut es būtu atradis žēlastību tavās acīs! - es esmu nopratis, ka Tas Kungs mani tevis dēļ ir svētījis.
28 Appoint thy wages which I shall give thee.
Un viņš sacīja: prasi savu algu no manis, tad es to došu.
29 But he answered: Thou knowest how I have served thee, and how great thy possession hath been in my hands.
Un tas uz viņu sacīja: tu zini, kā es tev esmu kalpojis, un kā tavi lopi pie manis ir izdevušies.
30 Thou hadst but little before I came to thee, and now thou art become rich: and the Lord hath blessed thee at my coming. It is reasonable therefore that I should now provide also for my own house.
Jo priekš manas atnākšanas tev bija mazums, un tas ir lielā pulkā vairojies, un Tas Kungs tevi svētījis caur maniem soļiem; un nu, kad tad man būs apgādāt savu namu?
31 And Laban said: What shall I give thee? But he said: I require nothing: but if thou wilt do what I demand, I will feed, and keep thy sheep again.
Un viņš sacīja: ko lai tev dodu? Tad Jēkabs sacīja: tev man nekā nav jādod; ja tu man šo darīsi, tad es atkal ganīšu un sargāšu tavas avis.
32 Go round through all thy flocks, and separate all the sheep of divers colours, and speckled: and all that is brown and spotted, and of divers colours, as well among the sheep, as among the goats, shall be my wages.
Es izstaigāšu šodien pa visu tavu ganāmo pulku un atšķiršu no turienes visus raibos un lāsainos un visus melnos starp jēriem un visus lāsainos un raibos starp kazām, - un tās būs man par algu.
33 And my justice shall answer for me tomorrow before thee when the time of the bargain shall come: and all that is not of divers colours, and spotted, and brown, as well among the sheep as among the goats, shall accuse me of theft.
Tad mana taisnība liecinās par mani nākamās dienās, kad tu nāksi, manu algu raudzīt: viss, kas nav raibs un lāsains starp kazām un melns starp jēriem, to es būšu zadzis.
34 And Laban said: I like well what thou demandest.
Tad Lābans sacīja: redzi, lai jel notiek pēc tava vārda.
35 And he separated the same day the she goats, and the sheep, and the he goats, and the rams of divers colours, and spotted: and all the flock of one colour, that is, of white and black fleece, he delivered into the hands of his sons.
Un viņš atšķīra tanī dienā tos lāsainos un raibos āžus, un visas lāsainās un raibās kazas, visu, pie kā bija baltums, un visu, kas bija melns starp jēriem, un viņš tos iedeva savu bērnu rokā;
36 And he set the space of three days’ journey betwixt himself and his son in law, who fed the rest of his flock.
Un lika starpu treju dienu gājumā starp sevi un Jēkabu. Un Jēkabs ganīja Lābana citas avis.
37 And Jacob took green rods of poplar, and of almond, and of plane trees, and pilled them in part: so when the bark was taken off, in the parts that were pilled, there appeared whiteness: but the parts that were whole remained green: and by this means the colour was divers.
Tad Jēkabs ņēma rīkstes no zaļām apsēm un mandeļu kokiem un kļavām, un nodrāza tām baltas strīpas, atklādams to baltumu pie tām rīkstēm.
38 And he put them in the troughs, where the water was poured out: that when the flocks should come to drink, they might have the rods before their eyes, and in the sight of them might conceive.
Un tos kociņus, ko bija nomizojis, viņš ielika ūdens silēs un dzeramos traukos avīm priekšā, ka tās nākdamas dzert apietos.
39 And it came to pass that in the very heat of coition, the sheep beheld the rods, and brought forth spotted, and of divers colours, and speckled.
Un tās avis apgājās pār tām rīkstēm, un vedās strīpainas, lāsainas un raibas.
40 And Jacob separated the flock, and put the rods in the troughs before the eyes of the rams: and all the white and the black were Laban’s: and the rest were Jacob’s, when the flocks were separated one from the other.
Un Jēkabs šķīra tos jērus, un lika tām mātēm skatīties uz tām strīpainām un melnām starp Lābana avīm, un lika savus ganāmos pulkus atsevišķi, un nelika tos pie Lābana avīm.
41 So when the ewes went first to ram, Jacob put the rods in the troughs of water before the eyes of the rams, and of the ewes, that they might conceive while they were looking upon them:
Un notikās allažiņ, kad tās agrās avis apgājās, tad Jēkabs to avju priekšā tos kociņus ielika ūdens silēs, ka tās pār tiem kokiem apietos.
42 But when the latter coming was, and the last conceiving, he did not put them. And those that were lateward, became Laban’s: and they of the first time, Jacob’s.
Bet kad tās vēlās avis apgājās, tad Jēkabs tos kociņus nelika iekšā, tad tie atpīļi(vājie) kļuva Lābanam un tie agrējie(spēcīgie) Jēkabam.
43 And the man was enriched exceedingly, and he had many flocks, maid servants and men servants, camels and asses.
Un tas vīrs auga ļoti varens, un tam bija daudz avju, kalpoņu un kalpu, kamieļu un ēzeļu.
