Genesis 29
1 And he lifted up Jacob feet his and he went [the] land of towards [the] people of [the] east.
Derpå fortsatte Jakob sin Vandring og drog til Østens Børns Land.
2 And he saw and there! a well [was] in the field and there! there three flocks of sheep [were] lying down at it for from the well that people watered the flocks and the stone [was] large over [the] mouth of the well.
Da fik han Øje på en Brønd på Marken og tre Hjorde af Småkvæg, der var lejrede ved den. Ved den Brønd vandede man Hjordene; og over Hullet lå der en stor Sten,
3 And they were gathered there towards all the flocks and they rolled the stone from over [the] mouth of the well and they watered the sheep and they put back the stone over [the] mouth of the well to place its.
som man først væltede bort, når alle Hjordene var samlede, for siden, når Dyrene var vandet, at vælte den på Plads igen.
4 And he said to them Jacob O brothers my from where? [are] you and they said [are] from Haran we.
Jakob spurgte dem: "Hvor er I fra, Brødre?" De svarede: "Fra Karan!"
5 And he said to them ¿ do you know Laban [the] son of Nahor and they said we know [him].
Da spurgte han dem: "Kender I Laban, Nakors Søn?" De svarede: "Ja, ham kender vi godt."
6 And he said to them ¿ [does] health [belong] to him and they said health and there! Rachel daughter his [is] coming with the sheep.
Han spurgte da: "Går det ham vel? De svarede: "Ja, det går ham vel; se, hans Datter Rakel kommer netop med Hjorden derhenne!"
7 And he said here! still the day [is] great not [the] time of [the] being gathered of the livestock water the sheep and go pasture [them].
Da sagde han: "Det er jo endnu højlys Dag og for tidligt at drive Kvæget sammen; vand Dyrene og før dem ud på Græsgangene!"
8 And they said not we are able until that they will be gathered all the flocks and people will roll the stone from over [the] mouth of the well and we will water the sheep.
Men de svarede: "Det kan vi ikke, før alle Hyrderne er samlede; først når de vælter Stenen fra Brøndhullet, kan vi vande Dyrene."
9 Still [was] he speaking with them and Rachel - she came with the sheep which [belonged] to father her for [was] a shepherdess she.
Medens han således stod og talte med dem, var Rakel kommet derhen med sin Faders Hjord, som hun vogtede;
10 And it was just as he saw Jacob Rachel [the] daughter of Laban [the] brother of mother his and [the] sheep of Laban [the] brother of mother his and he drew near Jacob and he rolled the stone from over [the] mouth of the well and he watered [the] sheep of Laban [the] brother of mother his.
og så snart Jakob så sin Morbroder Labans Datter Rakel og hans Hjord, gik han hen og væltede Stenen fra Brøndhullet og vandede sin Morbroder Labans Hjord.
11 And he kissed Jacob Rachel and he lifted up voice his and he wept.
Så kyssede han Rakel og brast i Gråd;
12 And he told Jacob to Rachel that [was] [the] relative of father her he and that [was] [the] son of Rebekah he and she ran and she told to father her.
og han fortalte hende; at han var hendes Faders Frænde, en Søn af Rebekka: Da skyndte hun sig hjem til sin Fader og fortalte ham det"
13 And it was when heard Laban [the] report of - Jacob [the] son of sister his and he ran to meet him and he embraced him and he kissed him and he brought him to house his and he recounted to Laban all the things these.
og så snart Laban hørte om sin Søstersøn Jakob, løb han ham i Møde, omfavnede og kyssede ham og førte ham hjem til sit Hus. Så fortalte Jakob ham alt, hvad der var sket;
14 And he said to him Laban surely [are] bone my and flesh my you and he remained with him a month of days.
og Laban sagde: "Ja, du er mit Kød og Blod!" Han blev nu hos ham en Månedstid.
15 And he said Laban to Jacob ¿ for relative my [are] you and you will serve me for nothing tell! to me what? [is] wage[s] your.
Så sagde Laban til Jakob: "Skulde du tjene mig for intet fordi du er min Frænde? Sig mig. hvad du vil have i Løn!"
16 And [belonged] to Laban two daughters [the] name of the old [one] [was] Leah and [the] name of the young [one] [was] Rachel.
Nu havde Laban to Døtre; den ældste hed Lea, den yngste Rakel;
17 And [the] eyes of Leah [were] weak and Rachel she was beautiful of form and beautiful of appearance.
Leas Øjne var matte, men Rakel havde en dejlig Skikkelse og så dejlig ud,
18 And he loved Jacob Rachel and he said I will serve you seven years for Rachel daughter your young.
og Jakob elskede Rakel; derfor sagde han: "Jeg vil tjene dig syv År for din yngste Datter Rakel."
19 And he said Laban ([is] good *LB(ah)*) to give I her to you more than to give I her to a man another remain! with me.
Laban svarede: "Jeg giver hende hellere til dig end til en fremmed; bliv kun hos mig!"
20 And he served Jacob for Rachel seven years and they were in view his like days one in love his her.
Så tjente Jakob syv År for Rakel; og de syntes ham kun nogle få Dage, fordi han elskede hende.
21 And he said Jacob to Laban give! wife my for they have been completed days my so I may go into her.
Derefter sagde Jakob til Laban: "Giv mig min Hustru, nu min Tjenestetid er ude, at jeg kan gå ind til hende!"
22 And he gathered Laban all [the] people of the place and he prepared a feast.
Så indbød Laban alle Mændene på Stedet til Gæstebud.
23 And it was in the evening and he took Leah daughter his and he brought her to him and he went into her.
Men da Aftenen kom, tog han sin, Datter Lea og bragte hende til ham, og han gik ind til hende.
24 And he had given Laban to her Zilpah maidservant his to Leah daughter his a maidservant.
Og Laban gav sin Datter Lea sin Trælkvinde Zilpa til Trælkvinde.
25 And it was in the morning and there! she [was] Leah and he said to Laban what? this have you done to me ¿ not for Rachel have I served with you and why? have you deceived me.
Da det nu om Morgenen viste sig at være Lea, sagde Jakob til Laban: "Hvad er det, du har gjort imod mig? Er det ikke for Rakel, jeg, har tjent hos dig? Hvorfor har, du bedraget mig?"
26 And he said Laban not it is done thus in place our to give the young before the firstborn.
Laban svarede: "Det er ikke Skik og Brug her til Lands at give den yngste bort før den ældste;
27 Complete [the] week of this [one] so let us give to you also this [one] for [the] service which you will serve with me again seven years another.
men lad nu Bryllupsugen gå til Ende, så vil, jeg også give dig hende, imod at du bliver i min Tjeneste syv År til."
28 And he did Jacob thus and he completed [the] week of this [one] and he gave to him Rachel daughter his of him to a wife.
Det gik Jakob ind på, og da Bryllupsugen var til Ende, gav Laban ham sin Datter Rakel til Hustru.
29 And he had given Laban to Rachel daughter his Bilhah maidservant his to her to [be] a maidservant.
Og Laban gav sin Datter Rakel sin Trælkvinde Bilha til Trælkvinde.
30 And he went also into Rachel and he loved also Rachel more than Leah and he served with him again seven years another.
Så gik Jakob også ind til Rakel, og han elskede Rakel højere end Lea. Derpå blev han i Labans Tjeneste syv År til.
31 And he saw Yahweh that [was] hated Leah and he opened womb her and Rachel [was] barren.
Da HERREN så, at Lea blev tilsidesat, åbnede han hendes Moderliv, medens Rakel var ufrugtbar.
32 And she conceived Leah and she bore a son and she called name his Reuben for she said that he has looked Yahweh on affliction my for now he will love me husband my.
Så blev Lea frugtsommelig og fødte en Søn, som hun gav Navnet Ruben; thi hun sagde: "HERREN har set til min Ulykke; nu vil min Mand elske mig!"
33 And she conceived again and she bore a son and she said that he has heard Yahweh that [am] hated I and he has given to me also this [one] and she called name his Simeon.
Siden blev hun frugtsommelig igen og fødte en Søn; og hun sagde: "HERREN hørte, at jeg var tilsidesat, så gav han mig også ham!" Derfor gav hun ham Navnet Simeon.
34 And she conceived again and she bore a son and she said now this time he will join himself husband my to me for I have borne to him three sons there-fore he called name his Levi.
Siden blev hun frugtsommelig igen og fødte en Søn; og hun sagde: "Nu må da endelig min Mand bolde sig til mig, da jeg har født ham tre Sønner." Derfor gav hun ham Navnet Levi.
35 And she conceived again and she bore a son and she said this time I will praise Yahweh there-fore she called name his Judah and she stopped from bearing children.
Siden blev hun frugtsommelig igen og fødte en Søn; og hun sagde:"Nu vil jeg prise HERREN!" Derfor gav hun ham Navnet Juda. Så fik hun ikke flere Børn.
