Genesis 30
1 And Rachel, seeing herself without children, envied her sister, and said to her husband: Give me children, otherwise I shall die.
Te Rahel nda feꞌe bꞌonggi sa. Naa de, ana horo-mbala aꞌa na. De ana olaꞌ no sao na nae, “Aꞌa! Fee au anaꞌ dei! Mete ma hokoꞌ, malole lenaꞌ, au mateꞌ a.”
2 And Jacob being angry with her, answered: Am I as God, who hath deprived thee of the fruit of thy womb?
Boe ma, Yakob bua e nae, “Ho mae au ia, Lamatualain, fo bisa fee ho anaꞌ, do?”
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.
Rahel olaꞌ nae, “Taꞌo ia! Malole lenaꞌ, aꞌa haꞌi mala ate ngga Bilha. Muu sungguꞌ mo e, fo ana bꞌonggi fee au anaꞌ.”
4 And she gave him Bala in marriage: who,
Boe ma, ana fee Bilha neu Yakob, de ana sungguꞌ no e.
5 When her husband had gone in unto her, conceived and bore a son.
Bilha o nairu boe, de bꞌonggi ana touꞌ esa.
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.
Rahel olaꞌ nae, “Lamatualain rena au hule-oꞌe ngga. Naa de, Ana fee au ana touꞌ esa. Ana naꞌetuꞌ au dedꞌea ngga no ndoo-tetuꞌ.” Rahel babꞌae anaꞌ naa, Dan (sosoa na ‘neꞌetuꞌ dedꞌeat’).
7 And again Bala conceived and bore another,
Basa ma, Bilha nairu seluꞌ, de bꞌonggi ana touꞌ esa fai.
8 For whom Rachel said: God hath compared me with my sister, and I have prevailed: and she called him Nephtali.
Rahel olaꞌ nae, “Au ukusosoek o aꞌa ngga ena, ma au uꞌsenggiꞌ e.” Naa de, ana babꞌae anaꞌ naa, Naftali (sosoa na ‘esa nda nau kala saꞌ boe’).
9 Lia, perceiving that she had left off bearing, gave Zelpha her handmaid to her husband.
Lea duꞌa nae eni nda bꞌonggi sa ena ma, ana fee Yakob sao nala ate na Silpa.
10 And when she had conceived and brought forth a son,
Boe ma Silpa bꞌonggi ana touꞌ esa.
11 She said: Happily. And therefore called his name Gad.
Lea olaꞌ nae, “Au uanale ngga, malole ena.” Naa de, ana babꞌae anaꞌ naa, Gad (sosoa na ‘uanale maloleꞌ’).
12 Zelpha also bore another.
Basa ma, Silpa bꞌonggi ana touꞌ esa fai.
13 And Lia said: This is for my happiness: for women will call me blessed. Therefore she called him Aser.
Lea olaꞌ nae, “Weh! Ia naa, au feꞌe umuhoꞌo na! Mete te, basa inaꞌ ra olaꞌ-olaꞌ rae, au onton seli.” Naa de, ana babꞌae anaꞌ naa, Aser (sosoa na ‘nemehoꞌo’).
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.
Lao esa, nandaa no fai etu-oru are ma, Ruben lao lasi neu, de nita hau modꞌo sa bisa tao atahori hambu anaꞌ. De ana nendi fee ina na Lea. Rahel nita taꞌo naa ma, ana noꞌe Lea nae, “Aꞌa e! Fee au modꞌo fo Ruben nendiꞌ a mbei dei.”
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.
Te Lea nataa nae, “We! Ho ia, manaseliꞌ! Rambas mala au sao ngga. Ia ma, ho mae rambas mala modꞌo naa mia au ana ngga fai, do? Ho, nda mo mamaem sa!” Te Rahel olaꞌ nae, “Taꞌo ia, aꞌa. Mete ma au hambu modꞌo na, tetembaꞌ ia, muu sungguꞌ mo Ako.” Ma Lea nau boe.
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.
Bꞌobꞌo na ma, Yakob baliꞌ mia osi nema. Ma Lea neu nandaa no e, de olaꞌ nae, “Aꞌa! Tetembaꞌ ia, aꞌa musi sungguꞌ mo au! Huu au bae basa aꞌa endiꞌ ana ngga modꞌo na ena.” De tetembaꞌ na, Yakob sungguꞌ no Lea.
17 And God heard her prayers: and she conceived and bore the fifth son,
Boe ma Lamatualain rena Lea hule-oꞌe na. Ana nairu, de bꞌonggi ana touꞌ kaliman.
18 And said: God hath given me a reward, because I gave my handmaid to my husband. And she called his name Issachar.
Ana nae, “Lamatualain bae basa au bebꞌengge ngga ena, huu au fee Silpa sao nala sao ngga.” Naa de, ana babꞌae anaꞌ naa, Isaskar (sosoa na ‘bae bebꞌenggeꞌ’).
19 And Lia conceived again, and bore the sixth son,
Basa ma Lea nairu seluꞌ, de bꞌonggi ana kanee na.
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.
Ana olaꞌ nae, “Lamatualain fee papala-babꞌanggiꞌ maloleꞌ neu au. De ia naa, au sao ngga musi fee hadat neu au, huu au bꞌonggi fee ne ana moneꞌ nee ena.” Naa de, ana babꞌae anaꞌ naa Sebulon (sosoa na ‘fee hadat’).
21 After whom she bore a daughter, named Dina.
Lea o bꞌonggi ana inaꞌ esa, de babꞌae e Dina.
22 The Lord also remembering Rachel, heard her, and opened her womb.
Basa ma, Lamatualain nasanedꞌa Rahel, ma rena hule-oꞌe na. Naa de, Ana soi mamana ana na.
23 And she conceived, and bore a son, saying: God hath taken away my reproach.
Boe ma, Rahel nairu, de bꞌonggi ana touꞌ esa. Ana nae, “Lamatualain nggari hendi au mamaet ngga ena.”
24 And she called his name Joseph, saying: The Lord give me also another son.
Ana olaꞌ nae, “Au oꞌe fo Lamatualain fee seluꞌ au ana touꞌ esa fai.” Naa de, ana babꞌae anaꞌ naa, Yusuf (sosoa na ‘hule fo fee seluꞌ’).
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.
Rahel bꞌonggi Yusuf ma, Yakob olaꞌ no Labꞌan nae, “Amaꞌ! Mete ma bisa, naa, au ae baliꞌ isiꞌ nusa ngga dei.
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.
Fee au baliꞌ o sao-ana ngga ra. Amaꞌ bubꞌuluꞌ au tao ues naeꞌ fee amaꞌ ena, de au bae etu se ena. Huu naa, au hak se.”
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.
Boe ma, ama ari na nataa nae, “Ana ngge! Rena dei. Au sangga basa uanaleꞌ, de bubꞌuluꞌ ae Lamatualain fee papala-babꞌanggiꞌ neu au, huu ho.
28 Appoint thy wages which I shall give thee.
De ia naa, ho mae moꞌe baꞌu sa o, au bae! Sadꞌi ho leo sia ia, ma tao ues mukundoo fee au.”
29 But he answered: Thou knowest how I have served thee, and how great thy possession hath been in my hands.
Ma Yakob nataa nae, “Amaꞌ mita no mata ma, au tao ues no manggateeꞌ. Naa de, banda mara boe ramaheta.
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.
Leleꞌ au nda feꞌe uma sa, amaꞌ suꞌi na nda naeꞌ sa. Te aleꞌ ia, amaꞌ namasuꞌi ena. Lamatualain pala-banggi fee amaꞌ ena, huu au ue-tatao ngga. Ia naa, au ae ue-tao fee sao-ana ngga ra.”
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.
Te Labꞌan natane nae, “Au musi bae ho taꞌo bee?” Yakob nataa nae, “Amaꞌ sudꞌi fee au saa-saa boe. Au uꞌuboi ukundoo banda mara, sadꞌi au bisa tao dalaꞌ esa.
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.
Fee isin au faiꞌ ia boe, uu sia amaꞌ banda nara, fo hii ala hiek-lombo. Bee nda kokotoꞌ sa, ma nda eꞌetaꞌ sa, naa ra, amaꞌ ena na. Te bee kokotoꞌ, ma eꞌetaꞌ, naa, au ena ngga. Ma au o haꞌi ala basa lombo nggeoꞌ ra. Basa naa ra, bae neu bebꞌengge ngga.
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.
Sia fai maꞌabui na, dei fo amaꞌ nahine au ia ndoos, do hokoꞌ. Sudꞌi a fai hiraꞌ amaꞌ nema paresaꞌ au banda nggara. Mete ma hambu hiek nda kokotoꞌ sa, ldo nda eꞌetaꞌ sa, do lombo mutiꞌ, naa, amaꞌ nahine au umunaꞌo banda mara.”
34 And Laban said: I like well what thou demandest.
Boe ma Labꞌan nau nae, “Malole! Taꞌo naa leo.”
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.
Faiꞌ naa boe, Labꞌan banggi fea banda kokotoꞌ, eꞌetaꞌ ra, ma lombo nggeoꞌ ra. Ana denu ana nara reu tao mataꞌ neu banda naa ra.
36 And he set the space of three days’ journey betwixt himself and his son in law, who fed the rest of his flock.
Ma ara rendi se risiꞌ mamanaꞌ esa dodꞌoo na lao eiꞌ fai telu mia Yakob e. Ma Yakob feꞌe naꞌabꞌoi ama ari na hiek-lombo feaꞌ nara.
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.
Basa ma, Yakob tati nala hau mataꞌ telu dana nara, de ana fina se dudꞌuiꞌ ra.
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.
Basa de, ana mbedaꞌ hau naa ra, sia banda ra mamana nininu na. Banda ra hiiꞌ a rahoo sia mamana nininuꞌ naa.
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.
Banda naa ra rahoo sia hau madꞌudꞌuiꞌ ra mata na, naa fo, ara bꞌonggi na ana nara fulu na kokotoꞌ ma eꞌeꞌtaꞌ.
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.
Dadꞌi Labꞌan banda nara, rae rahoo naa, Yakob fee se mbali banda kokotoꞌ ma eꞌeꞌta ra. De ana nara o kokotoꞌ ma ꞌeꞌeta ra. Naa de, banda nara boe ramaheta. Basa de, ana tadꞌa fea se mia Labꞌan banda nara.
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:
Banda maꞌadereꞌ ra rahoo naa, Yakob tao hau madꞌudꞌuiꞌ ra neu mata nara, sia mamana nininu na.
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.
Te mete ma banda manamaleꞌ ra rahoo na, ana nda tao hau naa ra sa. Naa de, Labꞌan hambu basa banda manamaleꞌ ra. Ma Yakob hambu basa banda maꞌadereꞌ ra.
43 And the man was enriched exceedingly, and he had many flocks, maid servants and men servants, camels and asses.
No taꞌo naa, Yakob namasuꞌi seli. Hiek-lombo, banda onta, keledei, no ate nara nae na seli.
