1 Thuutha ũcio Jakubu agĩthiĩ na mbere na rũgendo rwake, agĩkinya bũrũri wa andũ a mwena wa irathĩro.
Then Iacob lyfte vp his fete and wet toward the east countre.
2 Na rĩrĩ, akĩona gĩthima werũ-inĩ, na ndũũru ithatũ cia mbũri ikomete hakuhĩ nakĩo, tondũ cianyuithagio maaĩ kuuma gĩthima-inĩ kĩu. Narĩo ihiga rĩrĩa rĩakunĩkĩte mũromo wa gĩthima kĩu rĩarĩ inene mũno.
And as he loked aboute behold there was a well in the feld and. iij. flockes of shepe laye therby (for at that well were the flockes watered) and there laye a great stone at the well mouth
3 Na ndũũru ciothe ciarĩkia kũrũrũngana hau, arĩithi nao maagaragaragia ihiga rĩkeherio mũromo-inĩ wa gĩthima, makahe ndũũru maaĩ. Magacooka magacookia ihiga handũ harĩo mũromo-inĩ wa gĩthima.
And the maner was to brynge the flockes thyther and to roull the stone fro the welles mouth and to water the shepe and to put the stone agayne vppon the wells mouth vnto his place.
4 Jakubu akĩũria arĩithi acio atĩrĩ, “Ariũ a baba, muumĩte kũ?” Nao makĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Tuumĩte Harani.”
And Iacob sayde vnto the: brethern whece be ye? and they sayde: of Haran ar we.
5 Akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Nĩ mũũĩ Labani mũrũ wa Nahoru?” Nao magĩcookia “Ĩĩ, nĩ tũmũũĩ.”
And he sayde vnto the: knowe ye Laban the sonne of Nahor. And they sayde: we knowe him.
6 Ningĩ Jakubu akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “No mwega?” Makiuga atĩrĩ, “Ĩĩ, nĩ mwega. Na rĩrĩ, mwarĩ Rakeli-rĩ, nĩwe ũũrĩa ũroka na ngʼondu.”
And he sayde vnto the: is he in good health? And they sayde: he is in good health: and boholde his doughter Rahel cometh with ye shepe.
7 Nake Jakubu akĩmeera ũũ, “Atĩrĩrĩ, riũa rĩrĩ o igũrũ; na ti ihinda rĩa gũcookanĩrĩria ndũũru. Heei ngʼondu maaĩ, mũcooke mũthiĩ mũgacirĩithie.”
And he sayde: lo it is yet a great whyle to nyghte nether is it tyme yt the catell shulde be gathered together: water the shepe and goo and fede the.
8 Nao makĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Tũtingĩĩka ũguo o nginya ndũũru ciothe icookanĩrĩrio, narĩo ihiga rĩgaragario kuuma mũromo wa gĩthima, tũcooke tũhe ngʼondu maaĩ.”
And they sayde: we maye not vntill all ye flockes be brought together and the stone be roulled fro the wells mouth and so we water oure shepe.
9 O akĩmaragĩria-rĩ, Rakeli agĩkinya na ngʼondu cia ithe, tondũ aarĩ mũrĩithi.
Whyle he yet talked with the Rahel came with hir fathers shepe for she kepte them.
10 Rĩrĩa Jakubu onire Rakeli mwarĩ wa Labani, mũrũ wa nyina na nyina, na ngʼondu cia Labani, agĩthiĩ, akĩgaragaria ihiga, akĩrĩeheria mũromo-inĩ wa gĩthima na akĩhe ngʼondu cia mamawe maaĩ.
As soone As Iacob sawe Rahel the doughter of Laban his mothers brother and the shepe of Laban his mothers brother he went and rowled the stone fro the wells mouth and watered the shepe of Laba his mothers brother
11 Ningĩ Jakubu akĩmumunya Rakeli, na akĩrĩra anĩrĩire.
And Iacob kyssed Rahel and lyfte vp his voyce and wepte:
12 Jakubu nĩeerĩte Rakeli atĩ nĩ metainwo na ithe, na atĩ aarĩ mũrũ wa Rebeka. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Rakeli agĩtengʼera akĩĩra ithe ũhoro ũcio.
and tolde her also yt he was hir fathers brother and Rebeccas sonne. The Rahel ranne and tolde hir father.
13 Labani aarĩkia kũigua ũhoro wa Jakubu, mũriũ wa mwarĩ wa nyina, akĩhiũha agĩthiĩ kũmũtũnga. Akĩmũhĩmbĩria akĩmũmumunya, na akĩmũtwara mũciĩ, na arĩ kũu mũciĩ Jakubu akĩhe Labani ũhoro ũcio wothe.
When Laban herd tell of Iacob his sisters sonne he ranne agaynst him and embraced hi and kyssed him ad broughte him in to his house. And the Iacob told Laba all ye matter
14 Nake Labani akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ti-itherũ, ũrĩ wa mũthiimo wakwa na thakame yakwa.” Thuutha wa Jakubu gũikara nake mweri mũgima,
And the Laba sayde: well thou art my bone and my flesh. Abyde with me the space of a moneth.
15 Labani akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Ũrĩndutagĩra wĩra o ũguo tũhũ tondũ ũrĩ wa mbarĩ ciitũ? Njĩĩra mũcaara ũrĩa ũkwenda.”
And afterward Laban sayd vnto Iacob: though thou be my brother shuldest thou therfore serue me for nought? tell me what shall thi wages be?
16 Na rĩrĩ, Labani aarĩ na airĩtu eerĩ; ũrĩa mũkũrũ eetagwo Lea, nake ũrĩa mũnini eetagwo Rakeli.
And Laban had. ij. doughters the eldest called Lea and the yongest Rahel.
17 Lea aarĩ na maitho mataarĩ na hinya, no Rakeli oombĩtwo arĩ kĩĩrorerwa na aarĩ mũthaka.
Lea was tender eyed: But Rahel was bewtifull ad well fauored.
18 Jakubu eendete Rakeli, nake akiuga atĩrĩ, “Nĩngũgũtungatĩra mĩaka mũgwanja, ũndĩhe na kũũhe Rakeli, mwarĩguo ũrĩa mũnini.”
And Iacob loued her well and sayde: I will serue the. vij. yere for Rahel thy yongest doughter.
19 Labani agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kaba ndĩmũheanĩte kũrĩ we gũkĩra ndĩmũhe mũndũ ũngĩ. Ikara gũkũ na niĩ, ũndungate.”
And Laban answered: it is better yt I geue her the than to another man? byde therfore with me.
20 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Jakubu agĩtungata mĩaka mũgwanja nĩguo aheo Rakeli, no harĩ we yarĩ o ta matukũ manini nĩ ũndũ wa ũrĩa aamwendete.
And Iacob serued. vij. yeres for Rahel and they semed vnto him but a fewe dayes for the loue he had to her.
21 Mĩaka ĩyo yathira Jakubu akĩĩra Labani atĩrĩ, “Rĩu kĩĩhe mũtumia wakwa ndĩmũhikie, tondũ nĩndĩrarĩkirie ihinda rĩakwa rĩa gũtungata.”
And Iacob sayde vnto Laban geue me my wife that I maye lye with hir for the tyme appoynted me is come.
22 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Labani agĩkĩũngania andũ a kũu othe, akĩmarugĩra iruga.
Than Laban bade all the men of that place and made a feast.
23 No rĩrĩa hwaĩ-inĩ wakinyire-rĩ, akĩoya mwarĩ Lea, akĩmũnengera Jakubu, nake Jakubu agĩkoma nake.
And when eue was come he toke Lea his doughter and broughte her to him and he went in vnto her.
24 Ningĩ Labani akĩheana Zilipa, ndungata yake ya mũirĩtu kũrĩ mwarĩ ĩmũtungatagĩre.
And Laban gaue vnto his doughter Lea Zilpha his mayde to be hir seruaunte.
25 Na gwakĩa rũciinĩ-rĩ, Jakubu akĩona atĩ aaheetwo Lea! Tondũ ũcio Jakubu akĩũria Labani atĩrĩ, “Hĩ nĩ atĩa ũũ wanjĩka? Githĩ ndiragũtungatagĩra nĩ ũndũ wa Rakeli? Ũũheenetie nĩkĩ?”
And when the mornynge was come beholde it was Lea. Than sayde he to Laban: wherfore hast thou played thus with me? dyd not I serue the for Rahel wherfore than hast thou begyled me?
26 Labani akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Ti mũtugo witũ gũkũ kũheana mũirĩtu ũrĩa mũnini ahike mbere ya ũrĩa mũkũrũ:
Laban answered: it is not the maner of this place to marke the yongest before the eldest.
27 Rĩĩkia kiumia kĩa mũirĩtu ũyũ wahikia, na nĩtũgũcooka tũkũhe o na ũcio ũngĩ mũnini, nawe ũndutĩre wĩra mĩaka ĩngĩ mũgwanja.”
Passe out this weke and tha shall this also be geuen the for ye seruyce which thou shalt serue me yet. vij. yeres more.
28 Nake Jakubu agĩĩka o ũguo. Akĩrĩkia kiumia kĩa Lea, nake Labani akĩmũnengera mwarĩ Rakeli atuĩke mũtumia wake.
And Iacob dyd eue so and passed out that weke and than he gaue hi Rahel his doughter to wyfe also.
29 Labani akĩheana Biliha, ndungata yake ya mũirĩtu, kũrĩ Rakeli ĩmũtungatagĩre.
And Laban gaue to Rahel his doughter Bilha his handmayde to be hir servaute.
30 Jakubu agĩkoma na Rakeli o nake, na akĩenda Rakeli gũkĩra Lea. Na akĩrutĩra Labani wĩra mĩaka ĩngĩ mũgwanja.
So laye he by Rahel also and loued Rahel more than Lea and serued him yet. vij. yeres more.
31 Rĩrĩa Jehova onire atĩ Lea ndendeetwo-rĩ, akĩhingũra nda yake, no Rakeli aarĩ thaata.
When the LORde sawe that Lea was despised he made her frutefull: but Rahel was baren.
32 Lea akĩgĩa nda na agĩciara kahĩĩ. Nake agĩgatua Rubeni, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Nĩ tondũ Jehova nĩonete mĩnyamaro yakwa. Ti-itherũ, rĩu mũthuuri wakwa nĩekũnyenda.”
And Lea conceaued and bare a sonne ad called his name Rube for she sayde: the LORde hath loked apon my tribulation. And now my husbonde will loue me.
33 Na akĩgĩa nda rĩngĩ, na rĩrĩa aaciarire kahĩĩ, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Tondũ Jehova nĩaiguire atĩ ndirĩ mwende-rĩ, nĩaheete gaka o nako.” Nake agĩgatua Simeoni.
And she conceaued agayne and bare a sonne and sayde: the LORde hath herde that I am despised ad hath therfore geuen me this sonne also and she called him Simeon.
34 O rĩngĩ akĩgĩa nda na rĩrĩa aaciarire kahĩĩ, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ihinda rĩĩrĩ mũthuuri wakwa no ekwĩohania na niĩ tondũ nĩndĩmũciarĩire ihĩĩ ithatũ.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio agĩgatua Lawi.
And she conceaued yet and bare a sonne ad sayde: now this once will my husbonde kepe me company because I haue borne him. iij. sonnes: and therfore she called his name Levi.
35 Agĩcooka akĩgĩa nda rĩngĩ, agĩciara kahĩĩ kangĩ, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ihinda rĩĩrĩ nĩ ngũgooca Jehova.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio agĩgatua Juda. Agĩcooka akĩrũgama kũgĩa ciana.
And she conceaued yet agayne and bare a sonne saynge? Now will I prayse the LORde: therfore she called his name Iuda and left bearynge.
