< Genesis 29 >

1 Then Jacob went on his journey, and came to the land of the people of the east.
Jekopu'a masetere hume vuno, zage hanati kaziga vahe'mofo mopafi uhanati'ne.
2 He looked and saw a well in the field, and look, three flocks of sheep lying there by it. For out of that well they watered the flocks. The stone on the well's mouth was large.
Agra kesga huno trazampi keana, tinkerire tagufa afu kevu masenageno ke'ne, ana tikerireti sipisipiramina tina afi'za nezmize. Hanki ana tinkerimofo agitera ra have runkani rente'naze.
3 Now all the flocks would be gathered there, and they would roll the stone from the well's mouth, and water the sheep, and put the stone again on the well's mouth in its place.
Anante mika sipisipi kva vahe'mo'za utru hute'za, kerimofo agiteti havea atufe ante'ne'za, tina afi'za sipisipi zamia zamite'za, ete ana havea atufe'za ana kerimofo avazare runkani rentetere nehazane.
4 Jacob said to them, "My brothers, where are you from?" They said, "We are from Haran."
Hagi Jekopu'a zamagrikura amanage hu'ne, Nafuheta tamagra igatire? Hige'za kenona hu'za, Tagra Haranitire.
5 He said to them, "Do you know Laban, the grandson of Nahor?" They said, "We know him."
Hazageno Agra amanage huno zamasmi'ne, Nahori negeho Lebanina ke'nazo? Hige'za zamagra kenona amanage hu'naze, Tagra agrira ke'none.
6 He said to them, "Is it well with him?" They said, "It is well. See, Rachel, his daughter, is coming with the sheep."
Hazageno Jekopu'a zamagrira amanage huno zamasmi'ne, Lebani'a knare huno mani'nefi? Hige'za zamagra hu'za, Agra knare huno mani'ne. Hanki antu ko, agri'mofa Resoli'a sipisipi zaga'ane ne-e.
7 He said, "Look, it is still the middle of the day, not time to gather the livestock together. Water the sheep, and go, pasture them."
Hazageno Jekopu'a anage huno zamasmine, Keho, zagea anamifi megeno afu'zagarami eritru hukna omane'neanki, sipisipi afuzaga tina nezmita zamavareta vinke'za trazana ome neho, huno nehige'za,
8 They said, "We can't, until all the flocks are gathered together, and they roll the stone from the well's mouth. Then we water the sheep."
zamagra amanage hu'naze, E'inahura osu'nenunkeno mika'a emetru hute'nageta, tinkeriretira have avaza'a eritreta tina afi zamisunke'za negahaze.
9 While he was yet speaking with them, Rachel came with her father's sheep, for she was tending them.
Hagi Jekopu'a nanekea zamagrane nehigeno, Resoli'a agra sipisipi kva nehia mofakino, nefa sipisipi zamavareno e'ne.
10 It happened, when Jacob saw Rachel the daughter of Laban, his mother's brother, and the sheep of Laban, his mother's brother, that Jacob went over and rolled the stone from the well's mouth and watered the flock of Laban his mother's brother.
Jekopu'a nenogo Lebani mofa Resoli'ma sipisipi'ane ne-egeno, negeno vuno tin keriretira havea ome rekrehe huno, nerera nesaro Lebani sipisipia ti afizmi'ne.
11 Jacob kissed Rachel, and wept loudly.
Anante Jekopu'a Resolina antako hunenteno, ranke huno zavi ate'ne.
12 Jacob told Rachel that he was her father's brother, and that he was Rebekah's son. She ran and told her father.
Jekopu'a Resolina amanage huno asamine, Nafakamofo nesaro Rebeka mofavre mani'noe, higeno Resoli'a agareno vuno nefa ome asmi'ne.
13 It happened, when Laban heard the news of Jacob, his sister's son, that he ran to meet Jacob, and embraced him, and kissed him, and brought him to his house. Jacob told Laban all these things.
Hanki Lebani'a nesaro mofavre nenogo nenekema nentahino'a, ome ke'naku agareno vuno, ome anukino antako hunenteno avreno noma'afi e'ne. Ana higeno Jekopu'a hakare'a kea asami vaga'rene.
14 Laban said to him, "Surely you are my bone and my flesh." He lived with him for a month.
Ana hutegeno Lebani'a amanage huno asami'ne, Kagra nagri kora mani'nane. Higeno Jekopu'a anante mago ika agrane mani'ne.
15 Laban said to Jacob, "Because you are my brother, should you therefore serve me for nothing? Tell me what your wages should be?"
Hagi Lebani'a amanage huno Jekopuna asami'ne, Kagra nagri kora mani'nankure hunka amne eri'zana e'origahane. Nama'a kagrira miza hugantegahufi nasamio?
16 Laban had two daughters. The name of the older was Leah, and the name of the younger was Rachel.
Lebani'a tare mofatre zanante'ne, kotamofo agi'a Lia'e, osi'mofo agi'a Resoli'e.
17 Leah looked rather plain, but Rachel was beautiful in form and beautiful in appearance.
Lia avurgamo'a kazakiri'ne, hagi Resoli avurgamo'ene, avufgamo enena knarezantfa hu'ne.
18 Jacob loved Rachel. He said, "I will serve you seven years for Rachel, your younger daughter."
Jekopu'a Resolina avesinenteno amanage hu'ne, Nagra 7ni'a kafufi mofaka'a Resolima a'ma erinte'nakura erizanka'a erigantegahue.
19 Laban said, "It is better that I give her to you, than that I should give her to another man. Stay with me."
Higeno Lebani'a amanage hu'ne, Ru vahe ami'zankura kagri'ma kamisuana knare hu'neanki nagrane manio.
20 Jacob served seven years for Rachel, and it seemed only a few days to him because of his love for her.
Jekopu'a 7ni'a zagegfufi Resolima a'ma erikura eri'zana eri'neankino, ana knamo'a agritera osi knasente'ne. Na'ankure agrama Resolima avesinte'negu anara hu'ne.
21 Jacob said to Laban, "Give me my wife, for my time is completed, so that I may sleep with her."
Hagi henka ana knamo'a vagaregeno Jekopu'a amanage huno Lebanikura hu'ne, Knama nami'nana knamo'a hago vagareanki, a'ni'a namige'na ara eri'neno.
22 Laban gathered together all the people of the place, and gave a feast.
Higeno Lebani'a ana kumate vahera miko zamare tru huno, aravema hu ne'za kre'ne.
23 It happened in the evening, that he took Leah his daughter and brought her to him, and he slept wit her.
Ana kenegera Lebani'a Lia avreno Jekopu ome amigeno anteno mase'ne.
24 Laban gave Zilpah his female servant to his daughter Leah as a servant.
Lebani'a eri'za erinentea a' Zilpa avreno mofa'a Lia katoza huminogu eme ami'ne.
25 It happened in the morning that, look, it was Leah. He said to Laban, "What is this you have done to me? Did I not work for you to have Rachel? Why then have you deceived me?"
Hanki Jekopu'a maseno kotigeno nanterama keana Lia mani'negeno keteno, agra amanage Lebanikura hu'ne, Resolinte eri'zana eri kantenoanki, kagra na'a amazana hunantane? Nahigenka renavatga hane?
26 Laban said, "It is not our custom here to give the younger before the firstborn.
Anage hianagi Lebani'a ana kenona amanage hu'ne, Tagri kumapina nagna'amo nuna'amofo agatereno ve' eri'zana omane'ne.
27 Finish the week of this one, and I will give you the other also in exchange for the work which you are to serve with me for another seven years."
Mago sonta manitegeta, tagra mago'mofona kamisnunkenka ara erigahananki, ete mago'ene 7ni'a zagegafu eri'zana eri nantegahane.
28 Then Jacob did so, and fulfilled her week. He gave him Rachel his daughter as wife.
Higeno Jekopu'a mago sonta Lia'ene mani vagare'tegeno, Lebani'a mofa'a Resolina avreno Jekopuna amigeno nenaro'za hu'ne.
29 Laban gave to Rachel his daughter Bilhah, his female servant, to be her servant.
Lebani'a, katozama'a e'neri a' Bilhana avreno Resoli katoza eri aminogu ami'ne.
30 So he slept with Rachel also, and he loved Rachel more than Leah. And he worked with him another seven years.
Hanki Jekopu'a Resolina anteno mase'ne, agra Liama avesi nenteama'a agatereno Resolina tusiza huno avesintene. Agra ana nehuno Lebanina erizana 7ni'a zagegafufi erinte'ne.
31 Jehovah saw that Leah was unloved, so he made her fertile, but Rachel was barren.
Hanki Ra Anumzamo'ma keana Jekopu'a Liana avesi ontegeno, Anumzamo'a rimpa eri vasne'ne, ana hianagi Resoli'a narvo a' mani'ne.
32 Leah conceived, and bore a son, and she named him Reuben. For she said, "Because God has looked at my affliction, and given me a son. For now my husband will love me."
Lia'a amu'ene huno ne' kasenteno agi'a Rubeni'e huno nenteno anage hu'ne, Na'ankure Ra Anumzamo natazani'a nazeri knare hiankino, nenave'a avesi nantegahie.
33 She conceived again, and bore a son, and said, "Because God has heard that I am unloved, he has therefore given me this son also." So she named him Simeon.
Anante Lia'a mago'ene amu'ene huno ne' kasenteno amanage hu'ne, nenave'a avesi onantegeno Ra Anumzamo antahi namino mago'ene ama mofavrea nenamie, nehuno Simioni'e huno agia antemi'ne.
34 She conceived again, and bore a son. She said, "Now this time my husband will become attached to me, since I have given him three sons." Therefore he was named Levi.
Anante Lia'a amu'ene huno ne' kasenteno amanage hu'ne, Menina ama knarera, nenave'a tvaonire manigahie. Na'ankure nagra tagufa ne'mofavre kase amue. Ana hu'negu agi'a Levi'e huno antemi'ne.
35 She conceived again, and bore a son. She said, "This time will I praise God." Therefore she named him Judah. Then she stopped bearing.
Anante Lia'a mago'ene amu'ene huno, ne'mofavre kasenteno amanage hu'ne, Menina nagra Ra Anumzamofo agi'a erisga hue. Ana hu'negu agi'a Juda'e hu'ne. Ana huteno ana a'mo'a mago'ene mofavrea onte'ne.
