Kinohi 30
1 A IKE ae la o Rahela, aole ia i hanau i na keiki na Iakoba, huahuwa aku la o Rahela i kona kaikaana; i mai la ia ia Iakoba, E haawi, mai oe i keiki na'u, o make au.
When Rachel realized she was unable to give Jacob any children she was jealous of her sister. She complained to Jacob, “I'll die if you don't give me children!”
2 Hoaaia ka inaina o Iakoba ia Rahela; i aku la ia, Owau no anei ka panihakahaka no ke Akua, nana i aua mai ka hua o kou opu?
Jacob became angry with Rachel and told her, “Am I God? Do you think I'm the one stopping you having children?”
3 I mai la ia, Aia hoi kuu kauwawahine o Bileha, e komo aku oe io na la; a e hanau mai auanei ia maluna o kuu mau kuli, i keiki ai hoi au ma ona la.
“Here's my personal maid Bilhah,” Rachel replied. “Sleep with her and she can have children for me so I'll have a family too.”
4 Haawi mai la oia ia Bileha i kana kauwawahine, i wahine nana: a komo aku la o Iakoba io na la.
She gave her personal maid Bilhah to him as a wife and Jacob slept with her.
5 Hapai iho la o Bileha, a hanau mai la, he keikikane na Iakoba.
Bilhah became pregnant and had a son for Jacob.
6 I mai la o Rahela, Ua hoapono mai ke Akua ia'u, ua hoolohe mai hoi ia i ko'u leo, a ua haawi mai ia i keiki na'u: nolaila, kapa iho la ia i kona inoa, o I Dana.
Rachel said, “God has judged in my favor! He listened to me and gave me a son.” So she named him Dan.
7 Hapai hou iho la o Bileha ke kauwawahine a Rahela, a hanau mai la, o ka lua ia o kana keikikane na Iakoba.
Rachel's personal maid Bilhah became pregnant again and had second son for Jacob.
8 I mai la o Rahela, Me na hakoko nui ka'u i hakoko pu ai me kuu kaikuaana, a ua lanakila au: a kapa iho la ia i kona inoa, o I Napetali.
Rachel said, “I've had a hard struggle with my sister, but I've won.” So she named him Naphtali.
9 A ike iho la o Lea, ua oki kona hanau ana, lalau aku la ia ia Zilepa, i kana kauwawahine, a haawi aku la ia ia i wahine na Iakoba.
Leah realized she wasn't having any more children, so she gave her personal maid Zilpah to Jacob as a wife.
10 A hanau mai la o Zilepa ke kauwawahine a Lea i keikikane na Iakoba.
Zilpah had a son for Jacob.
11 I mai la o Lea, Pomaikai; a kapa iho la ia i kona inoa, o I Gada,
Leah said, “I'm really fortunate!” So she named him Gad.
12 Hanau mai la hoi o Zilepa o ke kauwawahine a Lea i ka lua o ke keikikane na Iakoba.
Leah's personal maid Zilpah became pregnant again and had a second son for Jacob.
13 I mai la o Lea, Pomaikai no wau, no ka mea, e hoomaikai mai auanei na kaikamahine ia'u: a kapa iho la i kona inoa o I Asera.
Leah said, “I'm so happy, and the other women will say I'm happy too!” So she named him Asher.
14 Hele aku la o Reubena i na la o ka ohi palaoa ana, a loaa ia ia ma ke kula na hua dudaima, a lawe mai la ia mau mea i kona makuwahine ia Lea. Alaila, i mai la o Rahela ia Lea, Ke noi aku nei au ia oe, o haawi mai na'u i kekahi mau dudaima a kau keikikane.
At the time of the wheat harvest Reuben found some mandrake plants when he was out in the fields. He took them back to his mother Leah. Rachel asked Leah, “Please give me some of the mandrakes your son found.”
15 I aku la kela ia ia, He mea uuku anei kou lawe ana aku i ka'u kane? a manao anei hoi oe o lawe aku i na dudaima a kuu keiki? I mai la o Rahela, Nolaila, e moe pu ia me oe i neia po no na dudaima a kau keiki.
“Aren't you satisfied with stealing my husband?” Leah replied. “Are you going to take my son's mandrakes too?” “Fine, he can sleep with you tonight if you give me some mandrakes in return,” Rachel responded.
16 I ke ahiahi, hoi mai la o Iakoba mai ke kula mai, a hele aku la o Lea e halawai me ia, i aku la, E komo mai oe io'u nei; no ka mea, he oiaio no, ua hoolimalima au ia oe me na dudaima a ka'u keiki. A moe pu iho la oia me ia ia po.
When Jacob came in from the fields that evening, Leah went out to meet him. “You have to sleep with me because I've paid for you with my son's mandrakes,” she told him. So he slept with her that night.
17 Hoolohe mai la ke Akua ia Lea a hapai iho la o Lea, a hanau mai la na Iakoba i ka lima o kana keikikane.
God heard Leah's request, and she became pregnant and had a fifth son for Jacob.
18 I mai la o Lea, Ua haawi mai la ke Akua i ka'u uku, no kuu haawi ana aku i ka'u kauwawahine na kuu kane: a kapa iho la ia i kona inoa o I Isakara.
Leah said, “The Lord has rewarded me for giving my personal maid to my husband.” So she named him Issachar.
19 Hapai hoa iho la o Lea, a hanau mai na Iakoba i ke ono o kana keikikane.
Then Leah became pregnant again and had a sixth son for Jacob.
20 I mai la o Lea, Ua haawi mai ke Akua ia'u i ka haawina maikai; ano la, e noho pu auanei ka'u kane me a'u, no ka mea, ua hanau no au i na keikikane eono nana: a kapa iho la ia i kona inoa o I Zebuluna.
Leah said, “God has given me a good gift. Now my husband will honor me because I've given him six sons.” So she named him Zebulun.
21 A mahope iho, hanau mai la ia i kaikamahine, a kapa iho la i kona inoa o I Dina.
Later she had a daughter she named Dinah.
22 Hoomanao mai la ke Akua ia Rahela, a hoolohe mai la ke Akua ia ia, a hoohua mai la i kona opu.
Then God paid attention to Rachel and listened to her appeals, and helped her to have children.
23 Hapai iho la oia, a hanau mai la he keikikane: i mai la ia, Ua lawe aku no ke Akua i kuu hoinoia.
She became pregnant and had a son. “God has removed my disgrace,” she said.
24 Kapa iho la ia i kona inoa o I Iosepa; i iho la, E haawi mai ke Akua i keikikane hou na'u.
She named him Joseph, saying, “May the Lord give me an additional son.”
25 I ka manawa a Rahela i hanau ai ia Iosepa, i aku la o Iakoba ia Labana, E hoihoi aku oe ia'u, i hele aku ai au i ko'u wahi, a i ko'u aina.
Once Rachel had given birth to Joseph, Jacob said to Laban, “Let me leave so I can return to my home and my own country.
26 E haawi mai oe i ka'u mau wahine, a me ka'u mau kamalii, i na mea a'u i hooikaika aku ai nau, a e kuu ae oe ia'u e hele: no ka mea, ua ike oe i ka hana au i hana aku ai nau.
Give me my wives and children because I worked for you to have them. Let me go now because you know very well how much work I've done for you.”
27 I mai la o Labana ia ia, Ke noi aku nei au ia oe, ina i loaa ia'u ke aloha imua ou, e noho; ua ike no wau ma ka hoao ana, nou no ka Iehova i hoopomaikai mai ai ia'u.
“Please be so kind as to stay,” Laban replied, “because I have discovered that the Lord has blessed me because of you.”
28 I mai la hoi oia, E hai mai oe i kau uku, a e haawi aku no wau.
Then Laban continued, “Tell me how much to pay you and I'll give it to you.”
29 I aku la kela ia Labana, Ua ike no oe i ko'u hooikaika ana aku nau, a me ka pono o kau poe holoholona.
“You certainly know how much work I've done for you, and how well your flocks have done under my care.
30 No ka mea, he mea uuku kau mamua o ko'u hiki ana mai, a hoomahuahuaia'e ia he lehulehu loa: a ua hoopomaikai mai o Iehova ia oe, mahope mai o kuu hele ana mai: ano hoi, ahea la au e hoolako ai i ko ka hale o'u kekahi?
You hardly had anything before I arrived, but now you have so much! The Lord has blessed you through what I've done. When am I going to be able to provide for my own family?”
31 I mai la oia, Heaha ka'u e uku aku ai ia oe? I aku la o Iakoba, Aole oe e uku mai ia'u i kekahi mea: ina paha penei oe e hana mai ai ia'u, alaila au e hana hou, a e malama hoi i kau poe holoholona:
“Well, what do you propose I give you?” Laban asked again. “You don't have to give me anything,” Jacob replied. “If you want to do something for me, then how about this: I'll go on looking after your flocks, making sure they're fed.
32 E hele ae au iwaena o kau poe holoholona a pau i neia la, a e hookaawale aku i na holoholona kikokiko a onionio, a me na mea eleele a pau o ka poe hipa, a me na mea onionio a kikokiko o ka poe kao: a oia ka'u uku.
Let me go through your flocks today and take all the sheep that are speckled or spotted, and all the dark ones, as well as all the speckled and spotted goats. They'll be my wages.
33 Pela e hoapono aku ai ho'u pono ia'u i ka wa mahope, i ka wa e lilo mai ai ia i uku na'u imua o kou mau maka: o na mea a pau o ka poe kao me au, aole i kikokiko, aole noi i eleele no ka poe hipa, oia ke oleloia he mea i aihueia.
In the future you'll be able to prove that I've been honest. When you check my flock, any goats that don't have speckles or spots, or any sheep that aren't dark will be considered stolen from you.”
34 I mai la o Labana, Aia hoi, o ko'u makemake no ia, me kau i olelo mai ai.
“Very good,” Laban agreed. “We'll do as you say.”
35 Ia la no, hookaawale ae la oia i na kao kane a pau i onionio a i kikokiko, a me na kao wahine a pau i onionio a kikokiko, me na mea kiko keokeo a pau; a me na mea eleele o na mea keikihipa, a haawi aku la iloko o ka lima o kana mau keikikane.
However, the same day Laban went and removed all the striped and spotted male goats, all the speckled and spotted female goats, and all the dark sheep. He had his sons look after them and sent them away—
36 A hookaawale ae la o Labana i na la hele i ekolu mawaena ona a o Iakoba: a hanai aku la o Iakoba i na poe holoholona a Labana i koe.
a three day journey between them and Jacob, while Jacob was looking after the rest of Laban's flocks.
37 Lawe ae la o Iakoba i na laau popela maka, me na laau alemone, a me na laau pelane, a ihi iho la i na kaha onionio keokeo ma ua mau laau la, i moakaka na wahi keokeo o na mau laau la.
Then Jacob cut some sticks from poplar, almond, and plane trees that had white wood under the bark. He peeled off some of the bark, making the sticks look streaked with white.
38 Kukulu iho la ia i na laau ana i ihi ai, imua o na holoholona, ma na pawai hooinu, i ka wa i hele ai lakou e inu, i hapai ai lakou i ka wa i hele ai lakou e inu.
He put the sticks he'd peeled in the water troughs where the flocks came to drink because that's where they mated.
39 Hapai iho la na holoholona imua o na mau laau la, a hanau mai la i na keiki onionio, kikokiko, a me ke kikohukohu.
The flocks mated in front of the sticks and gave birth to young that were streaked, speckled, and spotted.
40 Hookaawale ae la o Iakoba i na keikihipa, a haliu ae la i na maka o ka poe holoholona ma na mea onionio, a me na mea eleele o ko Labana poe holoholona; hookaawale ae la ia i kona mau poe holoholona, aole i hookokoke aku ia lakou me na holoholona a Labana.
Jacob separated all these ones out. Then he made his flock face towards those in Laban's flock that were streaked and dark. This is the way he kept his flocks apart from Laban's flock.
41 I ka wa i ai ai na holoholona ikaika, alaila, waiho iho la o Iakoba i na laau imua o na maka o na holoholona maloko o na pawaiinu, i hapai ai lakou imua o na laau.
When the strong females were ready to breed, Jacob put the sticks in the troughs where the flocks could see them when they mated.
42 Aka, ina he mau holoholona nawaliwali lakou, aole ia i waiho i na laau iloko; pela no, na Labana ka poe nawaliwali, a na Iakoba ka poe ikaika.
He didn't do this for the weaker females. The weaker ones went to Laban, and the strong ones went to Jacob.
43 A he nui loa ka waiwai o ua kanaka nei: ia ia na holoholona he nui wale, me na kauwawahine, a me na kauwakane, na kamelo, a me na hoki.
In this way Jacob became an extremely rich man with large flocks, and many male and female slaves, camels, and donkeys.
