Genesis 30
1 And Rachel having perceived that she bore Jacob no children, was jealous of her sister; and said to Jacob, Give me children; and if not, I shall die.
Lè Rachèl wè li pa t' kapab fè pitit pou Jakòb, li vin gen yon sèl jalouzi kont sè li a, li di Jakòb: -Fè m' fè pitit! Si se pa sa m'ap mouri sou kont ou!
2 And Jacob was angry with Rachel, and said to her, Am I in the place of God, who has deprived you of the fruit of the womb?
Jakòb fè kòlè sou Rachèl, li di li: -Eske se mwen ki Bondye? Se li menm ki anpeche ou fè pitit.
3 And Rachel said to Jacob, Behold my handmaid Balla, go in to her, and she shall bear upon my knees, and I also shall have children by her.
Rachèl di li: -Bon. Men Bila, sèvant mwen an. Kouche avè l'. La fè yon pitit pou mwen. Konsa, gremesi Bila, m'a gen pitit tou.
4 And she gave him Balla her maid, for a wife to him; and Jacob went in to her.
Se konsa, Rachèl te pran sèvant li a, li bay Jakòb pou madanm. Jakòb kouche ak Bila.
5 And Balla, Rachel's maid, conceived, and bore Jacob a son.
Bila vin ansent, li fè yon ti gason pou Jakòb.
6 And Rachel said, God has given judgment for me, and listened to my voice, and has given me a son; therefore she called his name, Dan.
Lè sa a, Rachèl di: -Seyè a rann mwen jistis. Li tande vwa mwen. Li ban m' yon gason. Se poutèt sa Rachèl te rele pitit la Dann.
7 And Balla, Rachel's maid, conceived yet again, and bore a second son to Jacob.
Apre sa, Bila, sèvant Rachèl la, vin ansent ankò, li fè yon dezyèm gason pou Jakòb.
8 And Rachel said, God has helped me, and I contended with my sister and prevailed; and she called his name, Nephthalim.
Rachèl di: -Mwen t'ap mennen yon gwo batay kont sè m' lan devan Bondye. Men se mwen ki genyen. Se konsa li rele pitit la Nèftali.
9 And Lea saw that she ceased from bearing, and she took Zelpha her maid, and gave her to Jacob for a wife; and he went in to her.
Lè Leya wè li te sispann fè pitit, li pran Zilpa, sèvant li a, bay Jakòb pou madanm tou.
10 And Zelpha the maid of Lea conceived, and bore Jacob a son.
Zilpa, sèvant Leya a, fè yon ti gason pou Jakòb.
11 And Lea said, [It is] happily: and she called his name, Gad.
Leya di: -Ala fanm gen chans se mwen menm! Se konsa li rele pitit la Gad.
12 And Zelpha the maid of Lea conceived yet again, and bore Jacob a second son.
Zilpa, sèvant Lea a, fè yon dezyèm pitit gason pou Jakòb.
13 And Lea said, I am blessed, for the women will pronounce me blessed; and she called his name, Aser.
Leya di konsa: -Ala benediksyon mwen jwenn! Koulye a medam yo pral di jan mwen se yon fanm ki beni. Se konsa li rele pitit la Asè.
14 And Ruben went in the day of barley harvest, and found apples of mandrakes in the field, and brought them to his mother Lea; and Rachel said to Lea her sister, Give me of your son's mandrakes.
Pandan rekòt ble a, Woubenn soti al nan jaden, li jwenn kèk mandragò. Li pote rasen yo bay Leya, manman li. Rachèl di Leya konsa: -Tanpri, ban m' kèk moso rasen mandragò pitit ou pote pou ou a.
15 And Lea said, [Is it] not enough for you that you have taken my husband, will you also take my son's mandrakes? And Rachel said, Not so: let him lie with you tonight for your son's mandrakes.
Leya reponn li: -Atò ou pa fè m' ase? Ou fin pran mari m', koulye a ou vle pran mandragò pitit gason m' lan tou? Rachèl di l': -Enben, Jakòb va kouche avè ou aswè a pou mandragò pitit gason ou lan.
16 And Jacob came in out of the field at even; and Lea went forth to meet him, and said, You shall come in to me this day, for I have hired you for my son's mandrakes; and he lay with her that night.
Nan aswè, lè Jakòb parèt sot nan jaden, Leya soti al kontre l', li di l' konsa: -Se pou ou vin kouche avè m' aswè a, paske mwen bay mandragò pitit gason m' lan pou sa. Se konsa, jou swa sa a, Jakòb kouche avèk Leya.
17 And God listened to Lea, and she conceived, and bore Jacob a fifth son.
Bondye reponn lapriyè Leya a. Li vin ansent, epi li fè yon senkyèm pitit gason pou Jakòb.
18 And Lea said, God has given me my reward, because I gave my maid to my husband; and she called his name Issachar, which is, Reward.
Leya di: -Bondye ban m' sa m' merite a, paske mwen te bay mari m' sèvant mwen an pou madanm. Se konsa, Leya rele pitit gason an Isaka.
19 And Lea conceived again, and bore Jacob a sixth son.
Leya vin ansent ankò, li fè yon sizyèm pitit gason pou Jakòb.
20 And Lea said, God has given me a good gift in this time; my husband will choose me, for I have born him six sons: and she called his name, Zabulon.
Leya di: -Bondye fè m' yon bèl kado. Fwa sa a, mari m' pral pou mwen nèt, paske mwen fè sis pitit gason pou li. Se konsa li rele pitit la Zabilon.
21 And after this she bore a daughter; and she called her name, Dina.
Apre sa, li fè yon pitit fi. Li rele l' Dena.
22 And God remembered Rachel, and God listened to her, and he opened her womb.
Lè sa a, Bondye vin chonje Rachèl, li reponn lapriyè li, li fè l' ka fè pitit.
23 And she conceived, and bore Jacob a son; and Rachel said, God has taken away my reproach.
Se konsa Rachèl vin ansent, li fè yon pitit gason. Li di: -Bondye fè yo sispann pase m' nan rizib.
24 And she called his name Joseph, saying, Let God add to me another son.
Epi Rachèl rele pitit gason an Jozèf, paske li te di: -Se pou Seyè a ba m' yon lòt gason ankò.
25 And it came to pass when Rachel had born Joseph, Jacob said to Laban, Send me away, that I may go to my place and to my land.
Apre Rachèl te fè Jozèf, Jakòb di Laban konsa: -Kite m' pati pou m ale lakay mwen nan peyi mwen.
26 Restore my wives and my children, for whom I have served you, that I may depart, for you know the service wherewith I have served you.
Ban mwen madanm mwen yo ansanm ak timoun yo pou m' ka ale, paske se pou yo mwen t'ap sèvi ak ou. Ou konnen tout kantite sèvis mwen rann ou.
27 And Laban said to him, If I have found grace in your sight, I would augur [well], for the Lord has blessed me at your coming in.
Laban reponn li: -Fè m' plezi sa a: mwen rekonèt se poutèt ou Seyè a beni m' tout beni sa a.
28 Appoint me your wages, and I will give [them].
Di m' sa pou m' peye ou, m'a ba ou li.
29 And Jacob said, You know in what things I have served you, and how many cattle of your are with me.
Jakòb di l': -Ou konnen jan mwen sèvi avè ou. Ou wè ki jan bann bèt ou yo peple depi yo nan men m'.
30 For it was little you had before my time, and it is increased to a multitude, and the Lord God has blessed you since my coming; now then, when shall I set up also my own house?
Ti sa ou te genyen anvan m' te vini an tounen yon kantite depi mwen mete pye m' isit la. Akòz mwen Seyè a pa manke beni ou. Alekile, li lè pou m' al travay pou tèt pa mwen.
31 And Laban said to him, What shall I give you? and Jacob said to him, You shall not give me anything; if you will do this thing for me, I will again tend your flocks and keep them.
Laban di l': -Kisa pou m' ba ou? Jakòb reponn li: -Ou pa bezwen peye m' pou sa. Men si ou dakò avèk sa mwen pral di ou la, m'a rete ankò pou okipe bèt ou yo.
32 Let all your sheep pass by today, and separate thence every grey sheep among the rams, and every one that is speckled and spotted among the goats—[this] shall be my reward.
Jòdi a, mwen pral pwonmennen mache nan mitan tout bèt ou yo. M'ap pran tout ti mouton nwa, ak tout ti kabrit ki takte osinon pentle yo, m'ap mete yo apa. Se sa ase w'a ban mwen pou sèvis mwen.
33 And my righteousness shall answer for me on the morrow, for it is my reward before you: whatever shall not be spotted and speckled among the goats, and grey among the rams, shall be stolen with me.
Lè w'a vin wè sa ou dakò ban mwen an, w'a konnen si m' te fè vis, wi ou non. Lè w'a vin kontwole sa ki pou mwen yo, si mwen gen yon mouton ki pa nwa, osinon yon kabrit ki pa takte ou ki pa pentle, ou mèt konnen se vòlè mwen vòlè ou.
34 And Laban said to him, Let it be according to your word.
Laban reponn li: -Dakò. n'a fè l' jan ou di l' la.
35 And he separated in that day the spotted and speckled he-goats, and all the spotted and speckled she-goats, and all that was grey among the rams, and every one that was white among them, and he gave them into the hand of his sons.
Men menm jou a, Laban wete tout bouk kabrit ki te gen pwal takte osinon ki te gen re sou tout kò yo, ak tout fenmèl kabrit ki te gen pwal takte osinon pentle, ou ankò ki te gen tach blan sou yo. Li wete tout mouton nwa yo, li pran tout bèt sa yo, li renmèt yo bay pitit gason l' yo.
36 And he set a distance of a three days' journey between them and Jacob. And Jacob tended the cattle of Laban that were left behind.
Apre sa, li pati byen lwen Jakòb avèk bann bèt li yo, li mache pandan twa jou epi li rete. Jakòb menm te pran swen rès mouton ak kabrit Laban yo.
37 And Jacob took to himself green rods of storax tree and walnut and plane tree; and Jacob peeled in them white stripes; and as he drew off the green, the white stripe which he had made appeared alternate on the rods.
Jakòb koupe kèk branch vèt nan pye sikren, pye zanmann ak pye bwadòm, li wete kèk lèz nan kòs yo. Konsa branch yo te vin gen bann vèt, bann blan sou tout kò yo.
38 And he laid the rods which he had peeled, in the hollows of the watering-troughs, that whenever the cattle should come to drink, as they should have come to drink before the rods, the cattle might conceive at the rods.
Li pran yo, li mete yo tout kote yo bay bèt yo bwè dlo. Li te ranje branch bwa yo la, paske se lè bèt yo vin bwè dlo yo kwaze.
39 So the cattle conceived at the rods, and the cattle brought forth [young] speckled, and streaked and spotted with ash-colored [spots].
Konsa, lè bèt yo kwaze devan branch bwa de koulè yo, yo fè pitit takte, pitit pentle, osinon ak re sou tout kò yo.
40 And Jacob separated the lambs, and set before the sheep a speckled ram, and every variegated one among the lambs, and he separated flocks for himself alone, and did not mingle them with the sheep of Laban.
Jakòb separe mouton yo, li pran tout mouton ki te takte osinon ki te nwa nan mouton Laban yo, li mete yo apa. Se konsa, li te vin gen yon bann bèt apa ki pa t' mele ak bèt Laban yo.
41 And it came to pass in the time wherein the cattle became pregnant, conceiving in the belly, Jacob put the rods before the cattle in the troughs, that they might conceive by the rods.
Lè bèt ki gra yo ap kwaze, Jakòb mete branch yo devan je yo kote y'ap bwè a. Konsa, yo kwaze devan branch yo.
42 But he did not put them in [indiscriminately] whenever the cattle happened to bring forth, but the unmarked ones were Laban's, and the marked ones were Jacob's.
Men, li pa mete branch yo lè se bèt mèg yo k'ap kwaze. Se konsa, bèt mèg yo vin pou Laban, epi bèt gra yo vin pou Jakòb.
43 And the man became very rich, and he had many cattle, and oxen, and servants, and maidservants, and camels, and asses.
Jakòb vin rich anpil, Li te gen anpil bèt. Kanta pou sèvant, domestik, chamo ak bourik, li pa t' manke sa.
