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.
Raahel yommuu akka Yaaqoobiif ijoollee tokko iyyuu hin daʼin argitetti obboleettii isheetti hinaafte. Yaaqoobiinis, “Ijoollee naa kenni, yoo kanaa achii nan duʼa!” jette.
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?
Yaaqoobis isheetti aaree, “Anatu iddoo Waaqa isa ijoollee si dhowwate sanaa jira moo?” jedheen.
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.
Isheenis, “Xomboreen koo Bilihaan kunoo ti; akka isheen qooda koo ijoollee naaf deessee anis karaa isheetiin ijoollee argadhuuf dhaqii ishee bira gaʼi” jette.
4 And she gave him Balla her maid, for a wife to him; and Jacob went in to her.
Isheenis xomboree ishee Bilihaa akka niitii isaa taatuuf kenniteef. Yaaqoobis ishee bira gaʼe;
5 And Balla, Rachel's maid, conceived, and bore Jacob a son.
isheenis ulfooftee ilma isaaf deesse.
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.
Kana irratti Raahel, “Waaqni naa murteesseera; kadhannaa koos dhagaʼee ilma naa kenneera” jette. Kanaafuu maqaa isaa Daan jettee moggaafte.
7 And Balla, Rachel's maid, conceived yet again, and bore a second son to Jacob.
Xomboreen Raahel Bilihaan ammas ulfooftee Yaaqoobiif ilma lammaffaa deesse.
8 And Rachel said, God has helped me, and I contended with my sister and prevailed; and she called his name, Nephthalim.
Raahelis, “Ani obboleettii koo walʼaansoo guddaa qabee moʼadheera” jette. Maqaa isaa Niftaalem jettee moggaafte.
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.
Liyaan akka ijoollee daʼuu dhiifte hubatte; xomboree ishee Zilfaa fuutee akka niitii isaa taatuuf Yaaqoobiif kennite.
10 And Zelpha the maid of Lea conceived, and bore Jacob a son.
Xomboreen Liyaa Zilfaanis Yaaqoobiif ilma deesse.
11 And Lea said, [It is] happily: and she called his name, Gad.
Liyaan immoo, “Maal milkiin akkanaa!” jettee maqaa isaa Gaad jettee moggaafte.
12 And Zelpha the maid of Lea conceived yet again, and bore Jacob a second son.
Xomboreen Liyaa Zilfaan Yaaqoobiif ilma lammaffaa deesse.
13 And Lea said, I am blessed, for the women will pronounce me blessed; and she called his name, Aser.
Ergasiis Liyaan, “Ani akkaman gammade! Dubartoonnis, ‘Eebbifamtuu’ naan jedhu” jette. Kanaafuu maqaa isaa Aasheer jettee moggaafte.
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.
Yeroo haamaa qamadiitti Ruubeen gara bakkeetti baʼee ija hudhaa argatee haadha isaa Liyaadhaaf fide. Raahelis Liyaadhaan, “Maaloo ija hudhaa ilma keetii irraa waa naa kenni” jette.
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.
Liyaan immoo, “Dhirsa koo narraa fudhachuun kee sitti xinnaatee? Hudhaa ilma koos ni fudhattaa?” jetteen. Raahelis, “Qooda hudhaa ilma keetii inni edana si wajjin haa bulu” jetteen.
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.
Gaafa sana galgala yeroo Yaaqoob lafa qotiisaatii galetti Liyaan isa simachuuf gad baatee, “Waan ani hudhaa ilma kootiin si kireeffadheef ati harʼa na wajjin bulu qabda” jetteen. Yaaqoobis halkan sana ishee wajjin bule.
17 And God listened to Lea, and she conceived, and bore Jacob a fifth son.
Waaqnis Liyaa dhagaʼe; isheenis ulfooftee Yaaqoobiif ilma shanaffaa deesse.
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.
Liyaanis, “Waan ani xomboree koo dhirsa kootiif kenneef Waaqni gatii koo naa baaseera” jette. Kanaafuu Yisaakor jettee isa moggaafte.
19 And Lea conceived again, and bore Jacob a sixth son.
Liyaan ammas ulfooftee Yaaqoobiif ilma jaʼaffaa deesse.
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.
Liyaanis, “Waaqni kennaa gaarii naaf kenneera; sababii ani ilmaan jaʼa isaaf daʼeef dhirsi koo siʼachi ulfina naa kenna” jette. Kanaafuu maqaa isaa Zebuuloon jettee moggaafte.
21 And after this she bore a daughter; and she called her name, Dina.
Ergasiis intala tokko deessee Diinaa jettee moggaafte.
22 And God remembered Rachel, and God listened to her, and he opened her womb.
Waaqnis Raahelin yaadate; kadhannaa ishees dhagaʼee gadameessa ishee baneef.
23 And she conceived, and bore Jacob a son; and Rachel said, God has taken away my reproach.
Isheenis ulfooftee ilma deessee, “Waaqni qaanii koo narraa fuudheera” jette.
24 And she called his name Joseph, saying, Let God add to me another son.
Isheenis maqaa isaa Yoosef jettee moggaaftee, “Waaqayyo ilma biraa naaf haa dabalu” jette.
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.
Erga Raahel Yoosefin deessee booddee Yaaqoob Laabaadhaan akkana jedhe; “Akka ani biyya dhalootaa kootti deebiʼuuf, gad na dhiisi.
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.
Ani nan deemaatii niitota koo fi ijoollee koo warra ani isaaniif jedhee siif tajaajile naa kenni. Akka ani hojii baayʼee siif hojjedhe ati iyyuu beekta.”
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.
Laabaan garuu akkana jedheen; “Maaloo yoo ani fuula kee duratti fudhatama argadhee jiraadhe asuma turi; ani akka Waaqayyo sababii keetiin na eebbise mulʼataan beekeeraatii.”
28 Appoint me your wages, and I will give [them].
Itti fufees, “Mee mindaa ani siif kaffaluu qabu natti himi; ani siifin kaffalaatii” jedhe.
29 And Jacob said, You know in what things I have served you, and how many cattle of your are with me.
Yaaqoobis akkana jedheen; “Akka ani hammam siif hojjedhe, horiin kees hammam akka harka kootti baayʼate atuu ni beekta.
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?
Wanni xinnaan ati utuu ani hin dhufin dura qabdu sun amma akka malee siif baayʼateera; lafa ani ture kamitti iyyuu Waaqayyo si eebbiseera. Garuu yeroon ani itti maatii kootiif yaadu yoomi ree?”
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.
Innis, “Wanni ani siif kennu maali ree?” jedhee gaafate. Yaaqoob immoo akkana jedhee deebise; “Homaa naaf hin kennin; garuu yoo ati waan kana naaf goote ani ittuma fufee bushaayee kee nan tiksa; nan eegas;
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.
ani harʼa bushaayee kee hunda keessa baʼee hoolota cocorree fi buburree hunda, hoolaa magaalaa fi reʼoota cocorree yookaan buburree hunda addaan nan baasa; isaan kunneen mindaa koo taʼu.
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.
Yeroo ati mindaa naa kennite sana toʼachuu dhuftutti, amanamummaan koo dhugaa naa baʼa. Hoolotaa fi reʼoota koo keessatti reʼeen cocorree yookaan buburree hin taʼin kam iyyuu, hoolaa keessaa immoo kan gurraacha hin taʼin kam iyyuu yoo argame akka waan hatameetti haa ilaalamu.”
34 And Laban said to him, Let it be according to your word.
Laabaanis, “Tole, akkuma ati jette haa taʼu” jedhe.
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.
Guyyuma sana Laabaan korbeeyyii reʼee halluu qaxxaamuroo qabanii fi buburree hunda, goromii reʼee cocorree fi buburree kanneen adaadii qaban hunda, akkasumas hoolota gugurraacha hunda fuudhee ilmaan isaatti kenne.
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.
Innis ofii isaatii fi Yaaqoob gidduutti lafa adeemsa guyyaa sadii hambise; Yaaqoob immoo bushaayee Laabaa kanneen hafan tiksuu itti fufe.
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.
Yaaqoobis damee alaltuu, kan looziitii fi hadheessa jiidhaa isaa darbee darbee naannessee qoola isaa irraa quncisuudhaan dhagna mukichaa isa keessaa adii sana mulʼise.
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.
Yaaqoobis yeroo bushaayeen sun bishaan dhuguuf dhufanitti damee qolli irraa quncifame sana fuula isaanii dura bidiruu bishaan itti obaasan keessa kaaʼe. Bushaayeen yeroo sun bishaan dhuguu dhufanitti gojomaʼanii
39 So the cattle conceived at the rods, and the cattle brought forth [young] speckled, and streaked and spotted with ash-colored [spots].
ulee sana duratti wal hobobsu turan; isaanis ilmoolee halluu qaxxaamuroo qaban, cocorree fi buburree dhalan.
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.
Yaaqoobis ilmoolee bushaayee kophaatti baase; bushaayee Laabaa kanneen hafan garuu warra halluu qaxxaamuroo qabanii fi gurraacha dura dhaabe. Akkasitti hoolota isaa addaan baase malee bushaayee Laabaatti hin makne.
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.
Yeroo dhaltuuwwan jajjaboon gojomaʼan kam iyyuu, Yaaqoob akka isaan ulee sana biratti wal hobobsaniif jedhee ulee sana fuula isaanii dura bidiruu keessa kaaʼaa ture;
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.
dhaltuuwwan dadhaboo dura garuu ulee sana hin keenye. Kanaafuu warri dadhaboon kan Laabaa, warri jajjaboon immoo kan Yaaqoob taʼan.
43 And the man became very rich, and he had many cattle, and oxen, and servants, and maidservants, and camels, and asses.
Namichi kun haala kanaan akka malee soorome; innis bushaayee baayʼee, garboota dubartootaatii fi dhiirotaa, gaalawwanii fi harroota qaba ture.
