< 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.
Nígbà tí Rakeli rí i pe òun kò bímọ, ó bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí ṣe ìlara sí Lea, arábìnrin rẹ̀, ó sì wí fún Jakọbu pé, “Fún mi lọ́mọ, bí kò ṣe bẹ́ẹ̀, èmi ó kú!”
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?
Inú sì bí Jakọbu sí i, ó sì wí pé, “Èmi ha wà ní ipò Ọlọ́run, ẹni tí ó mú ọ yàgàn bí?”
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.
Nígbà náà ni Rakeli wí pé, “Biliha ìránṣẹ́bìnrin mi nìyìí, bá a lòpọ̀, kí ó ba à le bí ọmọ fún mi, kí èmi si le è tipasẹ̀ rẹ̀ ní ọmọ.”
4 And she gave him Balla her maid, for a wife to him; and Jacob went in to her.
Báyìí ni Rakeli fi Biliha fún Jakọbu ní aya, ó sì bá a lòpọ̀.
5 And Balla, Rachel's maid, conceived, and bore Jacob a son.
Biliha sì lóyún, ó sì bí ọmọkùnrin kan fún Jakọbu.
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.
Rakeli sì wí pé, “Ọlọ́run ti ṣe ìdájọ́ mi; ó sì ti gbọ́ ohùn ẹ̀bẹ̀ mi, ó sì fún mi ni ọmọkùnrin kan.” Nítorí ìdí èyí ni ó ṣe pe orúkọ rẹ̀ ní Dani.
7 And Balla, Rachel's maid, conceived yet again, and bore a second son to Jacob.
Biliha, ọmọ ọ̀dọ̀ Rakeli sì tún lóyún, ó sì bí ọmọkùnrin kejì fún Jakọbu.
8 And Rachel said, God has helped me, and I contended with my sister and prevailed; and she called his name, Nephthalim.
Nígbà náà ni Rakeli wí pé, “Mo ti bá ẹ̀gbọ́n mi ja ìjàkadì ńlá, èmi sì ti borí.” Ó sì pe orúkọ rẹ̀ ní Naftali.
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.
Nígbà tí Lea sì ri pé òun ko tún lóyún mọ́, ó sì fi ọmọ ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ̀ obìnrin, Silipa fún Jakọbu bí aya.
10 And Zelpha the maid of Lea conceived, and bore Jacob a son.
Silipa ọmọ ọ̀dọ̀ Lea sì bí ọmọkùnrin kan fún Jakọbu.
11 And Lea said, [It is] happily: and she called his name, Gad.
Nígbà náà ni Lea wí pé, “Orí rere ni èyí!” Ó sì pe orúkọ rẹ̀ ní Gadi.
12 And Zelpha the maid of Lea conceived yet again, and bore Jacob a second son.
Silipa ọmọ ọ̀dọ̀ Lea sì tún bí ọmọkùnrin kejì fún Jakọbu.
13 And Lea said, I am blessed, for the women will pronounce me blessed; and she called his name, Aser.
Nígbà náà ni Lea wí pé, “Mo ní ayọ̀ gidigidi! Àwọn ọmọbìnrin yóò sì máa pe mí ní Alábùkún fún.” Ó sì pe orúkọ rẹ̀ ní Aṣeri.
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.
Ní ọjọ́ kan, ní àkókò ìkórè ọkà jéró, Reubeni jáde lọ sí oko, ó sì rí èso mándrákì, ó sì mú un tọ Lea ìyá rẹ̀ wá. Rakeli sì wí fún Lea pé, “Jọ̀wọ́ fún mi ní ara èso mándrákì tí ọmọ rẹ mú wá.”
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.
Ṣùgbọ́n Lea dalóhùn pé, “Ọkọ mi tí o gbà kò tó kọ́? Ṣe ìwọ yóò tún gba èso mándrákì ọmọ mi pẹ̀lú?” Rakeli sì dáhùn pé, “Ó dára, yóò sùn tì ọ́ lálẹ́ yìí nítorí èso mándrákì ọmọ rẹ.”
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.
Nítorí náà, nígbà tí Jakọbu ti oko dé ní ìrọ̀lẹ́ ọjọ́ náà, Lea jáde lọ pàdé rẹ̀, ó sì wí pé, “O ní láti sun ọ̀dọ̀ mi ní alẹ́ yìí nítorí mo ti fi èso mándrákì tí ọmọ mi wá bẹ̀ ọ́ lọ́wẹ̀.” Nítorí náà ni Jakọbu sùn tì í ní alẹ́ ọjọ́ náà.
17 And God listened to Lea, and she conceived, and bore Jacob a fifth son.
Ọlọ́run sì gbọ́ ti Lea, ó sì lóyún, ó sì bí ọmọkùnrin karùn-ún fún Jakọbu.
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.
Nígbà náà ni Lea wí pé, “Ọlọ́run ti sẹ̀san ọmọ ọ̀dọ̀ mi ti mo fi fún ọkọ mi fún mi,” ó sì pe orúkọ rẹ̀ ní Isakari.
19 And Lea conceived again, and bore Jacob a sixth son.
Lea sì tún lóyún, ó sì bí ọmọkùnrin kẹfà fún Jakọbu.
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.
Nígbà náà ni Lea tún wí pé “Ọlọ́run ti fún mi ní ẹ̀bùn iyebíye, nígbà yìí ni ọkọ mi yóò máa bu ọlá fún mi.” Nítorí náà ni ó ṣe pe orúkọ rẹ̀ ni Sebuluni.
21 And after this she bore a daughter; and she called her name, Dina.
Lẹ́yìn èyí, ó sì bí ọmọbìnrin kan, ó sì pe orúkọ rẹ̀ ní Dina.
22 And God remembered Rachel, and God listened to her, and he opened her womb.
Nígbà náà ni Ọlọ́run rántí Rakeli, Ọlọ́run sì gbọ́ tirẹ̀, ó sì ṣí i ní inú.
23 And she conceived, and bore Jacob a son; and Rachel said, God has taken away my reproach.
Ó lóyún, ó sì bí ọmọkùnrin kan ó sì wí pé, “Ọlọ́run ti mú ẹ̀gàn mi kúrò.”
24 And she called his name Joseph, saying, Let God add to me another son.
Ó sì pe orúkọ rẹ̀ ni Josẹfu, ó sì wí pé, “Ǹjẹ́ kí Olúwa kí ó fi ọmọkùnrin mìíràn kún un fún mi.”
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.
Lẹ́yìn tí Rakeli ti bí Josẹfu, Jakọbu wí fún Labani pé, “Jẹ́ kí èmi máa lọ sí ilẹ̀ mi tí mo ti wá.
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.
Kó àwọn ọmọ àti ìyàwó mi fún mi, àwọn ẹni tí mo ti torí wọn sìn ọ́. Ki èmi lè máa bá ọ̀nà mi lọ. O sá à mọ bí mo ti ṣiṣẹ́ sìn ọ́ tó.”
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.
Ṣùgbọ́n Labani wí fún un pé, “Bí o bá ṣe pé mo rí ojúrere rẹ, jọ̀wọ́ dúró, nítorí, mo ti ṣe àyẹ̀wò rẹ, mo sì rí i pé Olúwa bùkún mi nítorí rẹ.
28 Appoint me your wages, and I will give [them].
Sọ ohun tí o fẹ́ gẹ́gẹ́ bí owó iṣẹ́ ẹ̀ rẹ, èmi yóò sì san án.”
29 And Jacob said, You know in what things I have served you, and how many cattle of your are with me.
Jakọbu sì wí fún un pé, “Ìwọ sá à mọ bí mo ti ṣiṣẹ́ sìn ọ́ àti bí ẹran ọ̀sìn rẹ ti pọ̀ si lábẹ́ ìtọ́jú mi.
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?
Ìwọ̀nba díẹ̀ sá à ni o ní kí èmi tó dé, ó sì ti pọ̀ sí i gidigidi, Olúwa sì ti bùkún ọ nínú gbogbo èyí tí mo ṣe. Ṣùgbọ́n nísinsin yìí, nígbà wo ní èmi yóò pèsè fún ìdílé tèmi.”
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.
Ó sì tún béèrè wí pé, “Kín ni kí èmi ó fi fún ọ?” Jakọbu dáhùn pé, “Má fun mi ni ohunkóhun, ṣùgbọ́n bí ìwọ yóò bá ṣe ohun tí mo fẹ́ sọ yìí, èmi yóò sì máa bá ọ tọ́jú àwọn agbo ẹran rẹ, èmi yóò sì máa bọ́ wọn.
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.

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.
Òtítọ́ inú mi yóò sì jẹ́rìí fún mi ní ọjọ́ iwájú nígbà tí ìwọ bá wo owó iṣẹ́ mi tí ìwọ san fún mi, yóò sì ṣe pé gbogbo èyí tí kì í bá ṣe onílà tàbí alámì nínú ewúrẹ́ tàbí tí kì í ṣe dúdú nínú àgùntàn, tí o bá rí ni ọ̀dọ̀ mi ni kí o kà sí mi lọ́rùn pé jíjí ni mo jí gbé.”
34 And Laban said to him, Let it be according to your word.
Labani sì dáhùn pé, “Mo fi ara mọ́ ọn, ṣe bí ìwọ ti wí.”
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.
Ní ọjọ́ náà gan an ni Labani kó gbogbo ewúrẹ́ tí ó ní àmì tàbí ilà (àti òbúkọ àti abo, tí ó ní funfun díẹ̀ lára), pẹ̀lú gbogbo àgùntàn dúdú, ó sì fi wọ́n sí ìtọ́jú àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀.
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.
Ibi tí Labani àti Jakọbu sì wà sí ara wọn, sì tó ìrìn ọjọ́ mẹ́ta. Jakọbu sì ń tọ́jú agbo ẹran Labani tí ó kù.
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.
Nígbà náà ni Jakọbu gé ọ̀pá tẹ́ẹ́rẹ́ tútù kan lára igi Poplari, àti igi almondi àti igi Pileeni. Ó sì bó èèpo kúrò ní ibi kọ̀ọ̀kan lára igi náà láti fún igi náà ní àwọ̀ ju ẹyọ kan lọ.
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.
Ó sì mú àwọn ọ̀pá wọ̀nyí tì sí ọ̀ọ́kán agbada omi níbi tí àwọn ẹran ti lè rí i nígbà tí wọ́n bá wá mu omi.
39 So the cattle conceived at the rods, and the cattle brought forth [young] speckled, and streaked and spotted with ash-colored [spots].
Tí àwọn ẹran bá sì ń gùn, níwájú àwọn ọ̀pá náà, wọn sì bí àwọn ẹran onílà àti alámì, àwọn tí ó ní tótòtó lára.
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.
Nígbà náà ni ó ya àwọn abo ẹran kúrò nínú agbo ẹran Labani, ó sì yà wọ́n sọ́tọ̀ kúrò lára àgbò, ó sì mú kí wọn máa gùn pẹ̀lú àwọn àgbò Jakọbu dúdú nìkan, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ó kó agbo ẹran jọ fún ara rẹ̀ láti ara agbo ẹran Labani.
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.
Nígbàkígbà tí àwọn ẹran tí ó lera bá ń gùn, Jakọbu yóò fi àwọn ọ̀pá wọ̀nyí lélẹ̀ níwájú wọn, ní ibi tí wọn ti ń mu omi.
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.
Ṣùgbọ́n tí ó bá jẹ́ wí pé wọn kò lera, kò ní fi àwọn ọ̀pá náà lélẹ̀. Nítorí náà, àwọn tí kò lera ń jẹ́ ti Labani, nígbà tí àwọn tí ó lera ń jẹ́ ti Jakọbu.
43 And the man became very rich, and he had many cattle, and oxen, and servants, and maidservants, and camels, and asses.
Nítorí ìdí èyí, Jakọbu di ọlọ́rọ̀ gidigidi, agbo ẹran rẹ̀ pọ̀ àti àwọn ìránṣẹ́kùnrin, ìránṣẹ́bìnrin pẹ̀lú ìbákasẹ àti kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́.
