< Genesis 30 >

1 And when Rachel saw that she bare Jacob no children, Rachel envied her sister; and said unto Jacob, Give me children, or else I die.
فَلَمَّا رَأَتْ رَاحِيلُ أَنَّهَا لَمْ تَلِدْ لِيَعْقُوبَ، غَارَتْ رَاحِيلُ مِنْ أُخْتِهَا، وَقَالَتْ لِيَعْقُوبَ: «هَبْ لِي بَنِينَ، وَإِلَا فَأَنَا أَمُوتُ!».١
2 And Jacob's anger was kindled against Rachel: and he said, Am I in Elohim's stead, who hath withheld from thee the fruit of the womb?
فَحَمِيَ غَضَبُ يَعْقُوبَ عَلَى رَاحِيلَ وَقَالَ: «أَلَعَلِّي مَكَانَ ٱللهِ ٱلَّذِي مَنَعَ عَنْكِ ثَمْرَةَ ٱلْبَطْنِ؟».٢
3 And she said, Behold my maid Bilhah, go in unto her; and she shall bear upon my knees that I may also have children by her.
فَقَالَتْ: «هُوَذَا جَارِيَتِي بِلْهَةُ، ٱدْخُلْ عَلَيْهَا فَتَلِدَ عَلَى رُكْبَتَيَّ، وَأُرْزَقُ أَنَا أَيْضًا مِنْهَا بَنِينَ».٣
4 And she gave him Bilhah her handmaid to wife: and Jacob went in unto her.
فَأَعْطَتْهُ بِلْهَةَ جَارِيَتَهَا زَوْجَةً، فَدَخَلَ عَلَيْهَا يَعْقُوبُ،٤
5 And Bilhah conceived, and bare Jacob a son.
فَحَبِلَتْ بِلْهَةُ وَوَلَدَتْ لِيَعْقُوبَ ٱبْنًا،٥
6 And Rachel said, Elohim hath judged me, and hath also heard my voice, and hath given me a son: therefore called she his name Dan.
فَقَالَتْ رَاحِيلُ: «قَدْ قَضَى لِيَ ٱللهُ وَسَمِعَ أَيْضًا لِصَوْتِي وَأَعْطَانِيَ ٱبْنًا». لِذَلِكَ دَعَتِ ٱسْمَهُ «دَانًا».٦
7 And Bilhah Rachel's maid conceived again, and bare Jacob a second son.
وَحَبِلَتْ أَيْضًا بِلْهَةُ جَارِيَةُ رَاحِيلَ وَوَلَدَتِ ٱبْنًا ثَانِيًا لِيَعْقُوبَ،٧
8 And Rachel said, With great wrestlings have I wrestled with my sister, and I have prevailed: and she called his name Naphtali.
فَقَالَتْ رَاحِيلُ: «مُصَارَعَاتِ ٱللهِ قَدْ صَارَعْتُ أُخْتِي وَغَلَبْتُ». فَدَعَتِ ٱسْمَهُ «نَفْتَالِي».٨
9 When Leah saw that she had left bearing, she took Zilpah her maid, and gave her Jacob to wife.
وَلَمَّا رَأَتْ لَيْئَةُ أَنَّهَا تَوَقَّفَتْ عَنِ ٱلْوِلَادَةِ، أَخَذَتْ زِلْفَةَ جَارِيَتَهَا وَأَعْطَتْهَا لِيَعْقُوبَ زَوْجَةً،٩
10 And Zilpah Leah's maid bare Jacob a son.
فَوَلَدَتْ زِلْفَةُ جَارِيَةُ لَيْئَةَ لِيَعْقُوبَ ٱبْنًا.١٠
11 And Leah said, A troop cometh: and she called his name Gad.
فَقَالَتْ لَيْئَةُ: «بِسَعْدٍ». فَدَعَتِ ٱسْمَهُ «جَادًا».١١
12 And Zilpah Leah's maid bare Jacob a second son.
وَوَلَدَتْ زِلْفَةُ جَارِيَةُ لَيْئَةَ ٱبْنًا ثَانِيًا لِيَعْقُوبَ،١٢
13 And Leah said, Happy am I, for the daughters will call me blessed: and she called his name Asher.
فَقَالَتْ لَيْئَةُ: «بِغِبْطَتِي، لِأَنَّهُ تُغَبِّطُنِي بَنَاتٌ». فَدَعَتِ ٱسْمَهُ «أَشِيرَ».١٣
14 And Reuben went in the days of wheat harvest, and found mandrakes in the field, and brought them unto his mother Leah. Then Rachel said to Leah, Give me, I pray thee, of thy son's mandrakes.
وَمَضَى رَأُوبَيْنُ فِي أَيَّامِ حَصَادِ ٱلْحِنْطَةِ فَوَجَدَ لُفَّاحًا فِي ٱلْحَقْلِ وَجَاءَ بِهِ إِلَى لَيْئَةَ أُمِّهِ. فَقَالَتْ رَاحِيلُ لِلَيْئَةَ: «أَعْطِينِي مِنْ لُفَّاحِ ٱبْنِكِ».١٤
15 And she said unto her, Is it a small matter that thou hast taken my husband? and wouldest thou take away my son's mandrakes also? And Rachel said, Therefore he shall lie with thee to night for thy son's mandrakes.
فَقَالَتْ لَهَا: «أَقَلِيلٌ أَنَّكِ أَخَذْتِ رَجُلِي فَتَأْخُذِينَ لُفَّاحَ ٱبْنِي أَيْضًا؟» فَقَالَتْ رَاحِيلُ: «إِذًا يَضْطَجِعُ مَعَكِ ٱللَّيْلَةَ عِوَضًا عَنْ لُفَّاحِ ٱبْنِكِ».١٥
16 And Jacob came out of the field in the evening, and Leah went out to meet him, and said, Thou must come in unto me; for surely I have hired thee with my son's mandrakes. And he lay with her that night.
فَلَمَّا أَتَى يَعْقُوبُ مِنَ ٱلْحَقْلِ فِي ٱلْمَسَاءِ، خَرَجَتْ لَيْئَةُ لِمُلَاقَاتِهِ وَقَالَتْ: «إِلَيَّ تَجِيءُ لِأَنِّي قَدِ ٱسْتَأْجَرْتُكَ بِلُفَّاحِ ٱبْنِي». فَٱضْطَجَعَ مَعَهَا تِلْكَ ٱللَّيْلَةَ.١٦
17 And Elohim hearkened unto Leah, and she conceived, and bare Jacob the fifth son.
وَسَمِعَ ٱللهُ لِلَيْئَةَ فَحَبِلَتْ وَوَلَدَتْ لِيَعْقُوبَ ٱبْنًا خَامِسًا.١٧
18 And Leah said, Elohim hath given me my hire, because I have given my maiden to my husband: and she called his name Issachar.
فَقَالَتْ لَيْئَةُ: «قَدْ أَعْطَانِي ٱللهُ أُجْرَتِي، لِأَنِّي أَعْطَيْتُ جَارِيَتِي لِرَجُلِي». فَدَعَتِ ٱسْمَهُ «يَسَّاكَرَ».١٨
19 And Leah conceived again, and bare Jacob the sixth son.
وَحَبِلَتْ أَيْضًا لَيْئَةُ وَوَلَدَتِ ٱبْنًا سَادِسًا لِيَعْقُوبَ،١٩
20 And Leah said, Elohim hath 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.
فَقَالَتْ لَيْئَةُ: «قَدْ وَهَبَنِي ٱللهُ هِبَةً حَسَنَةً. ٱلْآنَ يُسَاكِنُنِي رَجُلِي، لِأَنِّي وَلَدْتُ لَهُ سِتَّةَ بَنِينَ». فَدَعَتِ ٱسْمَهُ «زَبُولُونَ».٢٠
21 And afterwards she bare a daughter, and called her name Dinah.
ثُمَّ وَلَدَتِ ٱبْنَةً وَدَعَتِ ٱسْمَهَا «دِينَةَ».٢١
22 And Elohim remembered Rachel, and Elohim hearkened to her, and opened her womb.
وَذَكَرَ ٱللهُ رَاحِيلَ، وَسَمِعَ لَهَا ٱللهُ وَفَتَحَ رَحِمَهَا،٢٢
23 And she conceived, and bare a son; and said, Elohim hath taken away my reproach:
فَحَبِلَتْ وَوَلَدَتِ ٱبْنًا فَقَالَتْ: «قَدْ نَزَعَ ٱللهُ عَارِي».٢٣
24 And she called his name Joseph; and said, YHWH shall add to me another son.
وَدَعَتِ ٱسْمَهُ «يُوسُفَ» قَائِلَةً: «يَزِيدُنِي ٱلرَّبُّ ٱبْنًا آخَرَ».٢٤
25 And it came to pass, when Rachel had born Joseph, that Jacob said unto Laban, Send me away, that I may go unto mine own place, and to my country.
وَحَدَثَ لَمَّا وَلَدَتْ رَاحِيلُ يُوسُفَ أَنَّ يَعْقُوبَ قَالَ لِلَابَانَ: «ٱصْرِفْنِي لِأَذْهَبَ إِلَى مَكَانِي وَإِلَى أَرْضِي.٢٥
26 Give me my wives and my children, for whom I have served thee, and let me go: for thou knowest my service which I have done thee.
أَعْطِنِي نِسَائِي وَأَوْلَادِي ٱلَّذِينَ خَدَمْتُكَ بِهِمْ فَأَذْهَبَ، لِأَنَّكَ أَنْتَ تَعْلَمُ خِدْمَتِي ٱلَّتِي خَدَمْتُكَ».٢٦
27 And Laban said unto him, I pray thee, if I have found favour in thine eyes, tarry: for I have learned by experience that YHWH hath blessed me for thy sake.
فَقَالَ لَهُ لَابَانُ: «لَيْتَنِي أَجِدُ نِعْمَةً فِي عَيْنَيْكَ. قَدْ تَفَاءَلْتُ فَبَارَكَنِي ٱلرَّبُّ بِسَبَبِكَ».٢٧
28 And he said, Appoint me thy wages, and I will give it.
وَقَالَ: «عَيِّنْ لِي أُجْرَتَكَ فَأُعْطِيَكَ».٢٨
29 And he said unto him, Thou knowest how I have served thee, and how thy cattle was with me.
فَقَالَ لَهُ: «أَنْتَ تَعْلَمُ مَاذَا خَدَمْتُكَ، وَمَاذَا صَارَتْ مَوَاشِيكَ مَعِي،٢٩
30 For it was little which thou hadst before I came, and it is now increased unto a multitude; and YHWH hath blessed thee since my coming: and now when shall I provide for mine own house also?
لِأَنَّ مَا كَانَ لَكَ قَبْلِي قَلِيلٌ فَقَدِ ٱتَّسَعَ إِلَى كَثِيرٍ، وَبَارَكَكَ ٱلرَّبُّ فِي أَثَرِي. وَٱلْآنَ مَتَى أَعْمَلُ أَنَا أَيْضًا لِبَيْتِي؟».٣٠
31 And he said, What shall I give thee? And Jacob said, Thou shalt not give me any thing: if thou wilt do this thing for me, I will again feed and keep thy flock:
فَقَالَ: «مَاذَا أُعْطِيكَ؟» فَقَالَ يَعْقُوبُ: «لَا تُعْطِينِي شَيْئًا. إِنْ صَنَعْتَ لِي هَذَا ٱلْأَمْرَ أَعُودُ أَرْعَى غَنَمَكَ وَأَحْفَظُهَا:٣١
32 I will pass through all thy flock to day, removing from thence 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.
أَجْتَازُ بَيْنَ غَنَمِكَ كُلِّهَا ٱلْيَوْمَ، وَٱعْزِلْ أَنْتَ مِنْهَا كُلَّ شَاةٍ رَقْطَاءَ وَبَلْقَاءَ، وَكُلَّ شَاةٍ سَوْدَاءَ بَيْنَ ٱلْخِرْفَانِ، وَبَلْقَاءَ وَرَقْطَاءَ بَيْنَ ٱلْمِعْزَى. فَيَكُونَ مِثْلُ ذَلِكَ أُجْرَتِي.٣٢
33 So shall my righteousness answer for me in time to come, when it shall come for my hire before thy face: every one that is not speckled and spotted among the goats, and brown among the sheep, that shall be counted stolen with me.
وَيَشْهَدُ فِيَّ بِرِّي يَوْمَ غَدٍ إِذَا جِئْتَ مِنْ أَجْلِ أُجْرَتِي قُدَّامَكَ. كُلُّ مَا لَيْسَ أَرْقَطَ أَوْ أَبْلَقَ بَيْنَ ٱلْمِعْزَى وَأَسْوَدَ بَيْنَ ٱلْخِرْفَانِ فَهُوَ مَسْرُوقٌ عِنْدِي».٣٣
34 And Laban said, Behold, I would it might be according to thy word.
فَقَالَ لَابَانُ: «هُوَذَا لِيَكُنْ بِحَسَبِ كَلَامِكَ».٣٤
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.
فَعَزَلَ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلتُّيُوسَ ٱلْمُخَطَّطَةَ وَٱلْبَلْقَاءَ، وَكُلَّ ٱلْعِنَازِ ٱلرَّقْطَاءِ وَٱلْبَلْقَاءِ، كُلَّ مَا فِيهِ بَيَاضٌ وَكُلَّ أَسْوَدَ بَيْنَ ٱلْخِرْفَانِ، وَدَفَعَهَا إِلَى أَيْدِي بَنِيهِ.٣٥
36 And he set three days' journey betwixt himself and Jacob: and Jacob fed the rest of Laban's flocks.
وَجَعَلَ مَسِيرَةَ ثَلَاثَةِ أَيَّامٍ بَيْنَهُ وَبَيْنَ يَعْقُوبَ، وَكَانَ يَعْقُوبُ يَرْعَى غَنَمَ لَابَانَ ٱلْبَاقِيَةَ.٣٦
37 And Jacob took him rods of green poplar, and of the hazel and chesnut tree; and pilled white strakes in them, and made the white appear which was in the rods.
فَأَخَذَ يَعْقُوبُ لِنَفْسِهِ قُضْبَانًا خُضْرًا مِنْ لُبْنَى وَلَوْزٍ وَدُلْبٍ، وَقَشَّرَ فِيهَا خُطُوطًا بِيضًا، كَاشِطًا عَنِ ٱلْبَيَاضِ ٱلَّذِي عَلَى ٱلْقُضْبَانِ.٣٧
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.
وَأَوْقَفَ ٱلْقُضْبَانَ ٱلَّتِي قَشَّرَهَا فِي ٱلْأَجْرَانِ فِي مَسَاقِي ٱلْمَاءِ حَيْثُ كَانَتِ ٱلْغَنَمُ تَجِيءُ لِتَشْرَبَ، تُجَاهَ ٱلْغَنَمِ، لِتَتَوَحَّمَ عِنْدَ مَجِيئِهَا لِتَشْرَبَ.٣٨
39 And the flocks conceived before the rods, and brought forth cattle ringstraked, speckled, and spotted.
فَتَوَحَّمَتِ ٱلْغَنَمُ عِنْدَ ٱلْقُضْبَانِ، وَوَلَدَتِ ٱلْغَنَمُ مُخَطَّطَاتٍ وَرُقْطًا وَبُلْقًا.٣٩
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 unto Laban's cattle.
وَأَفْرَزَ يَعْقُوبُ ٱلْخِرْفَانَ وَجَعَلَ وُجُوهَ ٱلْغَنَمِ إِلَى ٱلْمُخَطَّطِ وَكُلِّ أَسْوَدَ بَيْنَ غَنَمِ لَابَانَ. وَجَعَلَ لَهُ قُطْعَانًا وَحْدَهُ وَلَمْ يَجْعَلْهَا مَعَ غَنَمِ لَابَانَ.٤٠
41 And it came to pass, whensoever 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.
وَحَدَثَ كُلَّمَا تَوَحَّمَتِ ٱلْغَنَمُ ٱلْقَوِيَّةُ أَنَّ يَعْقُوبَ وَضَعَ ٱلْقُضْبَانَ أَمَامَ عُيُونِ ٱلْغَنَمِ فِي ٱلْأَجْرَانِ لِتَتَوَحَّمَ بَيْنَ ٱلْقُضْبَانِ.٤١
42 But when the cattle were feeble, he put them not in: so the feebler were Laban's, and the stronger Jacob's.
وَحِينَ ٱسْتَضْعَفَتِ ٱلْغَنَمُ لَمْ يَضَعْهَا، فَصَارَتِ ٱلضَّعِيفَةُ لِلَابَانَ وَٱلْقَوِيَّةُ لِيَعْقُوبَ.٤٢
43 And the man increased exceedingly, and had much cattle, and maidservants, and menservants, and camels, and asses.
فَٱتَّسَعَ ٱلرَّجُلُ كَثِيرًا جِدًّا، وَكَانَ لَهُ غَنَمٌ كَثِيرٌ وَجَوَارٍ وَعَبِيدٌ وَجِمَالٌ وَحَمِيرٌ.٤٣
