< 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.
Rachel ni Jakop hanlah camo a khe pouh hoeh e a hmu toteh, a hmau hah a ut teh Jakop koe, Camo na poe, nahoeh pawiteh ka due han, telah atipouh.
2 And Jacob’s anger was kindled against Rachel: and he said, Am I in God’s stead, who has withheld from you the fruit of the womb?
Jakop teh Rachel koe a lungkhuek teh, ca khe han ka pasoung hoeh e Cathut yueng lah maw ka o, telah ati.
3 And she said, Behold my maid Bilhah, go in to her; and she shall bear on my knees, that I may also have children by her.
Napui ni, khenhaw! ka sannu Bilhah heh ipkhai nateh kai ni hai ahni koehoi camo ka tawn thai nahanlah, ka phai dawk camo a khe han, telah ati.
4 And she gave him Bilhah her handmaid to wife: and Jacob went in to her.
Hatdawkvah, a sannu Bilhah teh a yu hanlah a poe teh Jakop ni a ikhai.
5 And Bilhah conceived, and bore Jacob a son.
Bilhah ni camo a vawn teh Jakop hanlah ca tongpa a khe pouh.
6 And Rachel said, God has judged me, and has also heard my voice, and has given me a son: therefore called she his name Dan.
Rachel ni, Cathut ni na pouk teh ka lawk hai a thai dawkvah, ca tongpa na poe, telah ati. Hatdawkvah, a min lah Dan a phung.
7 And Bilhah Rachel’s maid conceived again, and bore Jacob a second son.
Rachel e a sannu teh camo bout a vawn teh Jakop hanlah ca tongpa apâhni bout a khe pouh.
8 And Rachel said, With great wrestlings have I wrestled with my sister, and I have prevailed: and she called his name Naphtali.
Rachel ni, ka hmau hoi kâthe teh ka tâ toe telah ati. Hatdawkvah, a min lah Naptali a phung.
9 When Leah saw that she had left bearing, she took Zilpah her maid, and gave her Jacob to wife.
Leah ni camo ka khe thai hoeh toe tie a kâpanue dawkvah, a sannu Zilpah hah a ceikhai teh a yu hanlah Jakop hah a poe.
10 And Zilpah Leah’s maid bore Jacob a son.
Hatdawkvah, Leah e a sannu, Zilpah ni camo tongpa Jakop hanlah a khe pouh.
11 And Leah said, A troop comes: and she called his name Gad.
Leah ni, a yawhawi, telah ati teh, a min lah Gad a phung.
12 And Zilpah Leah’s maid bore Jacob a second son.
Leah e a sannu Zilpah ni ca tongpa Jakop hanlah bout a khe pouh.
13 And Leah said, Happy am I, for the daughters will call me blessed: and she called his name Asher.
Leah ni, Ka yaw ahawi, napuinaw ni a yaw kahawi poung katang e na ti pouh han, telah ati teh a min lah Asher a phung.
14 And Reuben went in the days of wheat harvest, and found mandrakes in the field, and brought them to his mother Leah. Then Rachel said to Leah, Give me, I pray you, of your son’s mandrakes.
Canga tue nah Reuben teh law vah a cei teh, hloisi hah a hmu teh a manu Leah koevah a thokhai. Hatdawkvah, Rachel ni Leah koevah, pahren lahoi na capa hloisi youn touh na poe haw, telah atipouh.
15 And she said to her, Is it a small matter that you have taken my husband? and would you take away my son’s mandrakes also? And Rachel said, Therefore he shall lie with you to night for your son’s mandrakes.
Ahni ni, ka vâ na lawp e heh hno tica e lah maw na pouk, ka capa hloisi totouh lawp han e na kâcai telah atipouh. Rachel ni, hat boi pawiteh, na capa e hloisi yueng lah atu tangmin na ikhai han, telah atipouh.
16 And Jacob came out of the field in the evening, and Leah went out to meet him, and said, You must come in to me; for surely I have hired you with my son’s mandrakes. And he lay with her that night.
Tangmin lah Jakop teh law hoi a tho teh, Leah ni a dawn hanlah a thaw teh, Na ikhai roeroe han, bangkongtetpawiteh, ka capa koe e hloisi heh ka hlai toe, telah ati dawkvah, hote tangmin teh a ikhai.
17 And God listened to Leah, and she conceived, and bore Jacob the fifth son.
Cathut ni Leah e ratoumnae hah a tarawi, camo a vawn teh Jakop hanlah ca tongpa panganae a khe pouh.
18 And Leah said, God has given me my hire, because I have given my maiden to my husband: and she called his name Issachar.
Leah ni, Ka sannu hah ka vâ koe ka poe dawkvah, Cathut ni ka tawknae aphu hah na poe van, telah a titeh a min lah Issakhar a phung.
19 And Leah conceived again, and bore Jacob the sixth son.
Leah ni, Camo bout a vawn teh Jakop hanlah ca tongpa ataruknae bout a khe pouh.
20 And Leah said, God has endued me with a good dowry; now will my husband dwell with me, because I have born him six sons: and she called his name Zebulun.
Leah ni, Cathut ni kahawi poung e kamthoupnae hoi na pathoup, ka vâ hanelah ca tongpa taruk touh ka khe pouh toung dawkvah, kai koe ao han toe, telah a titeh a min lah Zebulun a phung.
21 And afterwards she bore a daughter, and called her name Dinah.
Hathnukkhu, napuica bout a khe teh a min lah Dinah a phung.
22 And God remembered Rachel, and God listened to her, and opened her womb.
Cathut ni Rachel hah pahnim hoeh. Hatdawkvah, Cathut ni a ratoumnae a tarawi pouh teh, camo im a kamawng sak.
23 And she conceived, and bore a son; and said, God has taken away my reproach:
Hahoi, camo a vawn teh ca tongpa a khe. Cathut ni ka min mathoenae na ramuk pouh, telah ati.
24 And she called his name Joseph; and said, The LORD shall add to me another son.
Hahoi, BAWIPA ni capa alouke bout na poe ei naseh, a titeh a min lah Joseph a phung.
25 And it came to pass, when Rachel had born Joseph, that Jacob said to Laban, Send me away, that I may go to my own place, and to my country.
Rachel ni Joseph a khe hnukkhu hettelah ao. Jakop ni Laban koevah, ka onae ram lah ka ban thai nahanlah na cetsak leih.
26 Give me my wives and my children, for whom I have served you, and let me go: for you know my service which I have done you.
Na thaw na tawk pouh toe. Hatdawkvah, ka yunaw hoi ka canaw na poe nateh na cetsak leih, bangkongtetpawiteh na thaw ka tawk e naw hah na panue, telah atipouh.
27 And Laban said to him, I pray you, if I have found favor in your eyes, tarry: for I have learned by experience that the LORD has blessed me for your sake.
Laban ni, Na pahren thai pawiteh, awm ei. Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA ni nang pawlawk dawk hoi yawhawinae na poe e hah ka mithmu vah ka panue, telah atipouh.
28 And he said, Appoint me your wages, and I will give it.
Ama roeroe ni na hmu hane to nateh na poe han, telah ati.
29 And he said to him, You know how I have served you, and how your cattle was with me.
Jakop ni ahni koevah, bangtelamaw na thaw ka tawk tie hoi na saring hah bangtelamaw kai koe ao ti hah na panue.
30 For it was little which you had before I came, and it is now increased to a multitude; and the LORD has blessed you since my coming: and now when shall I provide for my own house also?
Ka tho hoehnahlan teh yitca doeh na tawnh, atuteh moikapap a kampung. Pek ka tho hoi BAWIPA ni yawhawinae hah na poe. Nâtuek maw ka imthungkhu hanelah thaw ka tawk van han telah ati.
31 And he said, What shall I give you? And Jacob said, You shall not give me any thing: if you will do this thing for me, I will again feed and keep your flock.
Hatdawkvah ahni koe, bangmaw na poe han telah atipouh. Jakop ni, banghai na poe hanh. Hetheh na sak pouh boipawiteh, na saringnaw teh bout na khoum pouh han.
32 I will pass through all your flock to day, removing from there all the speckled and spotted cattle, and all the brown cattle among the sheep, and the spotted and speckled among the goats: and of such shall be my hire.
Sahnin vah tuhu, hmaehu, thung ka cei teh, tarakcak e hmaenaw, humtamang e tunaw pueng hah koung a kapek toe. Hathnukkhu ka tarakcak e hmae, humtamang e tunaw teh kai ni ka coe hane aphu lah ao han.
33 So shall my righteousness answer for me in time to come, when it shall come for my hire before your face: every one that is not speckled and spotted among the goats, and brown among the sheep, that shall be counted stolen with me.
Hatdawkvah, atotovah kaie tawkphu ka hmu hane teh na hmalah a pha to vah, ka lannae ni na pathung han doeh. Hmae thung dawk tarakcak lah a em ka pangaw hoeh e, a em kasawlah ka pangaw hoeh e, tu thung dawk ka tamang hoeh e kai koe na hmawt pawiteh, ka paru e lah na pouk han, telah atipouh.
34 And Laban said, Behold, I would it might be according to your word.
Laban ni, Oe, na dei e patetlah tho lawiseh, telah ati.
35 And he removed that day the he goats that were ringstraked and spotted, and all the she goats that were speckled and spotted, and every one that had some white in it, and all the brown among the sheep, and gave them into the hand of his sons.
Hot hnin totouh hoi, hmaetan tarakcak ni teh kasawlah a em kaawmnaw pueng hoi, Hmae manu tarakcak ni teh kasawlah a em kaawm e naw pueng, ka pangaw pueng hoi tu thung dawk ka tamangnaw pueng hah a kapek pouh teh a capanaw e a kut dawk a poe.
36 And he set three days’ journey between himself and Jacob: and Jacob fed the rest of Laban’s flocks.
Ahni hoi Jakop rahak vah hnin thum lamcei koe ao sak teh, Jakop ni Laban e saringnaw pueng hah bout a thak pouh.
37 And Jacob took him rods of green poplar, and of the hazel and chestnut tree; and pilled white strakes in them, and made the white appear which was in the rods.
Jakop ni poplar hoi hazel hoi almond thing e akangnaw hah a la teh tarakcak lah a tarik.
38 And he set the rods which he had pilled before the flocks in the gutters in the watering troughs when the flocks came to drink, that they should conceive when they came to drink.
Saringnaw ni tui ouk a neinae dokko hoi palang dawkvah, saringnaw e hmalah sonron hah a ta. Bangkongtetpawiteh, tui nei hanlah ouk a tho awh nah saring hah âvâ ouk a cu awh.
39 And the flocks conceived before the rods, and brought forth cattle ringstraked, speckled, and spotted.
Hatdawkvah, saring hah sonron teng âvâ ouk a cu nah, a em tarakcak lah ouk a khe.
40 And Jacob did separate the lambs, and set the faces of the flocks toward the ringstraked, and all the brown in the flock of Laban; and he put his own flocks by themselves, and put them not to Laban’s cattle.
Hahoi, Jakop ni tucanaw a kapek teh, Laban e saringhu thung dawk e a em kaawm hoi katamangnaw pueng koe lah a kangvawi sak. Amae saring hah a kapek teh Laban e saring hoi rei hrueng hoeh.
41 And it came to pass, whenever the stronger cattle did conceive, that Jacob laid the rods before the eyes of the cattle in the gutters, that they might conceive among the rods.
Atha bet kaawm hnawn e saring âvâcu toteh, sonron hmalah âvâcu thai nahanlah, Jakop ni tui a lawngnae koe saringnaw e a hmaitung vah, sonron hah ouk a ta pouh.
42 But when the cattle were feeble, he put them not in: so the feebler were Laban’s, and the stronger Jacob’s.
Hatei, saring hah kamsoe pawiteh tat pouh hoeh. Hottelah, ka kamsoe e a canaw teh Laban e lah ao teh, a tha bet kaawm e naw hah Jakop e lah ao.
43 And the man increased exceedingly, and had much cattle, and maidservants, and menservants, and camels, and asses.
Hatdawkvah, Jakop koe moi kapap lah a kampung teh saringhu moi kapap, sannu hoi sanpa naw hoi, kalauknaw hoi lanaw hah a tawn.
