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.
Tango Rasheli amonaki ete azali kobotela Jakobi bana te, akomaki na zuwa mpo na ndeko na ye ya mwasi. Boye alobaki na Jakobi: — Pesa ngai bana, noki te nakokufa.
2 And Jacob’s anger was kindled against Rachel: and he said, [Am] I in God’s stead, who hath withheld from thee the fruit of the womb?
Jakobi asilikaki makasi mpo na Rasheli mpe alobaki: — Boni, ngai nakomi nde Nzambe oyo akangi yo mabota?
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.
Rasheli alobaki: — Tala Bila, mwasi mowumbu na ngai; sangisa na ye nzoto mpo ete abotela ngai bana, mpe na nzela na ye, ngai mpe nakoka kotonga libota.
4 And she gave him Bilhah her handmaid to wife: and Jacob went in unto her.
Rasheli apesaki ye Bila, mwasi mosali na ye, mpo ete akoma mwasi na ye. Jakobi asangisaki na ye nzoto,
5 And Bilhah conceived, and bare Jacob a son.
mpe Bila akomaki na zemi. Abotelaki Jakobi mwana mobali.
6 And Rachel said, God hath judged me, and hath also heard my voice, and hath given me a son: therefore called she his name Dan.
Rasheli alobaki: « Nzambe alongisi ngai, ayoki kolela na ngai mpe apesi ngai mwana mobali. » Boye apesaki ye kombo « Dani. »
7 And Bilhah Rachel’s maid conceived again, and bare Jacob a second son.
Sima na yango, Bila, mwasi mosali ya Rasheli, azwaki lisusu zemi mpe abotelaki Jakobi mwana mobali ya mibale.
8 And Rachel said, With great wrestlings have I wrestled with my sister, and I have prevailed: and she called his name Naphtali.
Rasheli alobaki: « Nabundisi ndeko na ngai ya mwasi bitumba ya Nzambe mpe nalongi. » Boye apesaki ye kombo « Nefitali. »
9 When Leah saw that she had left bearing, she took Zilpah her maid, and gave her Jacob to wife.
Tango Lea amonaki ete azali kobota lisusu te, azwaki Zilipa, mwasi mosali na ye, mpe apesaki ye epai ya Jakobi mpo ete akoma mwasi na ye.
10 And Zilpah Leah’s maid bare Jacob a son.
Zilipa, mwasi mosali ya Lea, abotelaki Jakobi mwana mobali.
11 And Leah said, A troop cometh: and she called his name Gad.
Lea alobaki: « Oyo nde esengo! » Boye apesaki ye kombo « Gadi. »
12 And Zilpah Leah’s maid bare Jacob a second son.
Sima na yango, Zilipa, mwasi mosali ya Lea, abotelaki Jakobi mwana mobali ya mibale.
13 And Leah said, Happy am I, for the daughters will call me blessed: and she called his name Asher.
Lea alobaki: « Oyo esengo ya ndenge nini nakomi na yango! Pamba te basi bakobenga ngai moto ya esengo. » Boye apesaki ye kombo « Aseri. »
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.
Na eleko ya kokata ble, Ribeni akendeki na bilanga mpe amonaki bambuma ya mandragore; amemelaki yango Lea, mama na ye. Bongo Rasheli alobaki na Lea: — Nabondeli yo, pesa ngai ndambo ya bambuma ya mandragore oyo mwana na yo amemaki.
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.
Kasi Lea azongiselaki ye: — Boni, ndenge ozwi mobali na ngai, ekoki te? Olingi lisusu kozwa bambuma ya mandragore ya mwana na ngai? Rasheli alobaki na ye: — Malamu! Soki opesi ngai bambuma ya mandragore ya mwana na yo, Jakobi akolala epai na yo na butu ya lelo.
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.
Na pokwa, wana Jakobi awutaki bilanga, Lea akendeki kokutana na ye mpe alobaki na ye: « Okolala epai na ngai, pamba te napesi bambuma ya mandragore ya mwana na ngai mpo na yo. » Boye Jakobi asangisaki na ye nzoto na butu wana.
17 And God hearkened unto Leah, and she conceived, and bare Jacob the fifth son.
Nzambe ayokelaki Lea mawa, akomaki na zemi mpe abotelaki Jakobi mwana mobali ya mitano.
18 And Leah said, God hath given me my hire, because I have given my maiden to my husband: and she called his name Issachar.
Lea alobaki: « Nzambe apesi ngai lifuti na ngai lokola napesaki mosali na ngai ya mwasi epai ya mobali na ngai. » Boye apesaki ye kombo « Isakari. »
19 And Leah conceived again, and bare Jacob the sixth son.
Lea azwaki lisusu zemi mpe abotelaki Jakobi mwana mobali ya motoba.
20 And Leah said, God 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.
Lea alobaki: « Nzambe apesi ngai likabo ya motuya. Sik’oyo, mobali na ngai akopesa ngai lokumu mpo ete naboteli ye bana mibali motoba. » Boye apesaki ye kombo « Zabuloni. »
21 And afterwards she bare a daughter, and called her name Dinah.
Sima na mikolo, abotaki lisusu mwana mwasi mpe apesaki ye kombo « Dina. »
22 And God remembered Rachel, and God hearkened to her, and opened her womb.
Nzambe akaniselaki Rasheli, ayokaki kolela na ye mpe afungolaki ye mabota.
23 And she conceived, and bare a son; and said, God hath taken away my reproach:
Akomaki na zemi, abotaki mwana mobali mpe alobaki: « Nzambe alongoli soni na ngai. »
24 And she called his name Joseph; and said, The LORD shall add to me another son.
Apesaki ye kombo « Jozefi, » mpe alobaki: « Tika ete Yawe abakisela ngai mwana mosusu ya mobali! »
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.
Sima na Rasheli kobota Jozefi, Jakobi alobaki na Labani: — Pesa ngai nzela mpo ete nazonga na mboka na ngai.
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.
Pesa ngai mpe basi mpe bana na ngai, ba-oyo mpo na bango nasaleli yo; bongo nakokende na ngai. Pamba te oyebi malamu mosala makasi oyo nasaleli yo.
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 the LORD hath blessed me for thy sake.
Kasi Labani alobaki na ye: — Soki nazwi ngolu na miso na yo, nabondeli yo, kokende te; pamba te nasosoli na bosoloka ete Yawe apamboli ngai na nzela na yo.
28 And he said, Appoint me thy wages, and I will give [it].
Abakisaki: — Katela ngai lifuti na yo mpe nakofuta yo yango.
29 And he said unto him, Thou knowest how I have served thee, and how thy cattle was with me.
Jakobi alobaki na ye: — Oyebi yo moko ndenge nini ngai nasaleli yo mpe ndenge nini, na nzela na ngai, bibwele na yo ekomi ebele.
30 For [it was] little which thou hadst before I [came], and it is [now] increased unto a multitude; and the LORD hath blessed thee since my coming: and now when shall I provide for mine own house also?
Moke oyo ozalaki na yango, liboso ete ngai naya, ekomi ebele penza. Yawe apamboli yo na nzela na ngai. Kasi sik’oyo, nakosala tango nini mpo na libota na ngai moko?
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:
Labani atunaki ye: — Nasengeli kopesa yo nini? Jakobi azongisaki: — Okopesa ngai eloko te. Kasi soki olingi kosala likambo oyo mpo na ngai, nakokoba koleisa mpe kobatela bibwele na yo.
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.
Lelo, nakoleka na kati-kati ya bibwele na yo, nakolongola kati na bana meme, bameme nyonso ya madodo-madodo mpe oyo ezali ya banzela-nzela ya mwindo; mpe lisusu kati na bantaba nyonso ya madodo-madodo mpe ya banzela-nzela ya pembe. Wana nde ezala lifuti na ngai.
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.
Boye bosembo na ngai ekomonana sima na mikolo tango okoya kotala lifuti na ngai. Soki omoni epai na ngai ntaba ezanga madodo to ezanga banzela ya pembe to mwana meme ezanga madodo to ezanga banzela ya mwindo, wana ekozala lokola nayibi yango.
34 And Laban said, Behold, I would it might be according to thy word.
Labani alobaki: — Iyo! Tika ete ezala ndenge olobi.
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.
Kaka na mokolo wana, Labani alongolaki kati na bibwele, bantaba ya mibali ya madodo-madodo mpe ya banzela-nzela ya pembe, bantaba nyonso ya basi ya madodo-madodo mpe ya banzela-nzela ya pembe, mpe bibwele nyonso oyo ezalaki mwa pembe mpe mwa mwindo kati na bana meme. Apesaki yango na maboko ya bana na ye ya mibali.
36 And he set three days’ journey betwixt himself and Jacob: and Jacob fed the rest of Laban’s flocks.
Sima, Labani atambolaki mikolo misato mpo na kokabwana na Jakobi, wana Jakobi akobaki kobatela ndambo ya bibwele ya Labani oyo etikalaki.
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.
Jakobi azwaki bitape ya mobesu ya nzete ya pepiliye, ya amande mpe ya platane.
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.
Bongo atiaki kati na basani mpe kati na bimelelo, liboso ya bibwele, bitape oyo apalolaki, na esika oyo bibwele ezalaki koya komela mayi. Wana bibwele ya basi ezalaki koyoka posa ya mayi, ezalaki mpe koyoka posa ya kosangisa nzoto na bibwele ya mibali.
39 And the flocks conceived before the rods, and brought forth cattle ringstraked, speckled, and spotted.
Boye, bibwele ezalaki koya kosangisa nzoto liboso ya bitape wana; mpe tango ezalaki kobota, bana na yango ezalaki na banzela-nzela ya pembe, banzela-nzela ya mwindo mpe madodo-madodo.
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.
Jakobi atiaki pembeni bana meme mpe atindaki yango na esika oyo bana meme ya nzela-nzela mpe ya mwa mwindo ezalaki; pamba te yango ezalaki kobotama mingi kati na bibwele ya Labani. Ezali boye nde akomaki na bibwele ya ye moko oyo asangisaki te na bibwele ya Labani.
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.
Tango nyonso bibwele ya basi, oyo ezalaki na nzoto minene, ezalaki na posa ya kosangisa nzoto, Jakobi azalaki kotia liboso ya bibwele yango bitape ya nzete kati na basani oyo yango ezalaki komelela mayi mpo ete esangisa nzoto pembeni ya bitape wana.
42 But when the cattle were feeble, he put [them] not in: so the feebler were Laban’s, and the stronger Jacob’s.
Kasi, na esika yango, azalaki kotia te bibwele oyo ekonda. Boye bibwele oyo ekonda ezalaki ya Labani, mpe oyo ya minene ezalaki ya Jakobi.
43 And the man increased exceedingly, and had much cattle, and maidservants, and menservants, and camels, and asses.
Na nzela wana nde moto oyo akomaki na bozwi mingi koleka. Azwaki bibwele ebele, basali ya basi mpe ya mibali, bashamo mpe ba-ane.
