Genesis 30
1 When Rachel realized she was unable to give Jacob any children she was jealous of her sister. She complained to Jacob, “I'll die if you don't give me children!”
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 Jacob became angry with Rachel and told her, “Am I God? Do you think I'm the one stopping you having children?”
Boe ma, Yakob bua e nae, “Ho mae au ia, Lamatualain, fo bisa fee ho anaꞌ, do?”
3 “Here's my personal maid Bilhah,” Rachel replied. “Sleep with her and she can have children for me so I'll have a family too.”
Rahel olaꞌ nae, “Taꞌo ia! Malole lenaꞌ, aꞌa haꞌi mala ate ngga Bilha. Muu sungguꞌ mo e, fo ana bꞌonggi fee au anaꞌ.”
4 She gave her personal maid Bilhah to him as a wife and Jacob slept with her.
Boe ma, ana fee Bilha neu Yakob, de ana sungguꞌ no e.
5 Bilhah became pregnant and had a son for Jacob.
Bilha o nairu boe, de bꞌonggi ana touꞌ esa.
6 Rachel said, “God has judged in my favor! He listened to me and gave me a son.” So she named him 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 Rachel's personal maid Bilhah became pregnant again and had second son for Jacob.
Basa ma, Bilha nairu seluꞌ, de bꞌonggi ana touꞌ esa fai.
8 Rachel said, “I've had a hard struggle with my sister, but I've won.” So she named him Naphtali.
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 Leah realized she wasn't having any more children, so she gave her personal maid Zilpah to Jacob as a wife.
Lea duꞌa nae eni nda bꞌonggi sa ena ma, ana fee Yakob sao nala ate na Silpa.
10 Zilpah had a son for Jacob.
Boe ma Silpa bꞌonggi ana touꞌ esa.
11 Leah said, “I'm really fortunate!” So she named him Gad.
Lea olaꞌ nae, “Au uanale ngga, malole ena.” Naa de, ana babꞌae anaꞌ naa, Gad (sosoa na ‘uanale maloleꞌ’).
12 Leah's personal maid Zilpah became pregnant again and had a second son for Jacob.
Basa ma, Silpa bꞌonggi ana touꞌ esa fai.
13 Leah said, “I'm so happy, and the other women will say I'm happy too!” So she named him Asher.
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 At the time of the wheat harvest Reuben found some mandrake plants when he was out in the fields. He took them back to his mother Leah. Rachel asked Leah, “Please give me some of the mandrakes your son found.”
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 “Aren't you satisfied with stealing my husband?” Leah replied. “Are you going to take my son's mandrakes too?” “Fine, he can sleep with you tonight if you give me some mandrakes in return,” Rachel responded.
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 When Jacob came in from the fields that evening, Leah went out to meet him. “You have to sleep with me because I've paid for you with my son's mandrakes,” she told him. So 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 God heard Leah's request, and she became pregnant and had a fifth son for Jacob.
Boe ma Lamatualain rena Lea hule-oꞌe na. Ana nairu, de bꞌonggi ana touꞌ kaliman.
18 Leah said, “The Lord has rewarded me for giving my personal maid to my husband.” So she named him 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 Then Leah became pregnant again and had a sixth son for Jacob.
Basa ma Lea nairu seluꞌ, de bꞌonggi ana kanee na.
20 Leah said, “God has given me a good gift. Now my husband will honor me because I've given him six sons.” So she named him Zebulun.
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 Later she had a daughter she named Dinah.
Lea o bꞌonggi ana inaꞌ esa, de babꞌae e Dina.
22 Then God paid attention to Rachel and listened to her appeals, and helped her to have children.
Basa ma, Lamatualain nasanedꞌa Rahel, ma rena hule-oꞌe na. Naa de, Ana soi mamana ana na.
23 She became pregnant and had a son. “God has removed my disgrace,” she said.
Boe ma, Rahel nairu, de bꞌonggi ana touꞌ esa. Ana nae, “Lamatualain nggari hendi au mamaet ngga ena.”
24 She named him Joseph, saying, “May the Lord give me an additional 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 Once Rachel had given birth to Joseph, Jacob said to Laban, “Let me leave so I can return to my home and my own country.
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 children because I worked for you to have them. Let me go now because you know very well how much work I've done for you.”
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 “Please be so kind as to stay,” Laban replied, “because I have discovered that the Lord has blessed me because of you.”
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 Then Laban continued, “Tell me how much to pay you and I'll give it to you.”
De ia naa, ho mae moꞌe baꞌu sa o, au bae! Sadꞌi ho leo sia ia, ma tao ues mukundoo fee au.”
29 “You certainly know how much work I've done for you, and how well your flocks have done under my care.
Ma Yakob nataa nae, “Amaꞌ mita no mata ma, au tao ues no manggateeꞌ. Naa de, banda mara boe ramaheta.
30 You hardly had anything before I arrived, but now you have so much! The Lord has blessed you through what I've done. When am I going to be able to provide for my own family?”
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 “Well, what do you propose I give you?” Laban asked again. “You don't have to give me anything,” Jacob replied. “If you want to do something for me, then how about this: I'll go on looking after your flocks, making sure they're fed.
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 Let me go through your flocks today and take all the sheep that are speckled or spotted, and all the dark ones, as well as all the speckled and spotted goats. They'll 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 In the future you'll be able to prove that I've been honest. When you check my flock, any goats that don't have speckles or spots, or any sheep that aren't dark will be considered stolen from you.”
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 “Very good,” Laban agreed. “We'll do as you say.”
Boe ma Labꞌan nau nae, “Malole! Taꞌo naa leo.”
35 However, the same day Laban went and removed all the striped and spotted male goats, all the speckled and spotted female goats, and all the dark sheep. He had his sons look after them and sent them away—
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 a three day journey between them and Jacob, while Jacob was looking after the rest of Laban's flocks.
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 Then Jacob cut some sticks from poplar, almond, and plane trees that had white wood under the bark. He peeled off some of the bark, making the sticks look streaked with white.
Basa ma, Yakob tati nala hau mataꞌ telu dana nara, de ana fina se dudꞌuiꞌ ra.
38 He put the sticks he'd peeled in the water troughs where the flocks came to drink because that's where they mated.
Basa de, ana mbedaꞌ hau naa ra, sia banda ra mamana nininu na. Banda ra hiiꞌ a rahoo sia mamana nininuꞌ naa.
39 The flocks mated in front of the sticks and gave birth to young that were streaked, speckled, and spotted.
Banda naa ra rahoo sia hau madꞌudꞌuiꞌ ra mata na, naa fo, ara bꞌonggi na ana nara fulu na kokotoꞌ ma eꞌeꞌtaꞌ.
40 Jacob separated all these ones out. Then he made his flock face towards those in Laban's flock that were streaked and dark. This is the way he kept his flocks apart from Laban's flock.
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 When the strong females were ready to breed, Jacob put the sticks in the troughs where the flocks could see them when they mated.
Banda maꞌadereꞌ ra rahoo naa, Yakob tao hau madꞌudꞌuiꞌ ra neu mata nara, sia mamana nininu na.
42 He didn't do this for the weaker females. The weaker ones went to Laban, and the strong ones went to Jacob.
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 In this way Jacob became an extremely rich man with large flocks, and many male and female slaves, camels, and donkeys.
No taꞌo naa, Yakob namasuꞌi seli. Hiek-lombo, banda onta, keledei, no ate nara nae na seli.
