Kejadian 29
1 Yakub meneruskan perjalanannya dan pergi ke negeri di sebelah timur Kanaan.
And Jacob lifts up his feet, and goes toward the land of the sons of the east;
2 Tiba-tiba dilihatnya sebuah sumur di padang, dan di dekatnya berbaringlah tiga kawanan kambing domba yang biasanya diberi minum di situ. Sumur itu tertutup batu besar.
and he looks, and behold, a well in the field, and behold, there [are] three droves of a flock crouching by it, for they water the droves from that well, and the great stone [is] on the mouth of the well.
3 Kalau semua kawanan kambing domba sudah berkumpul di tempat itu, para gembala menggulingkan batu itu ke samping, lalu kambing domba itu diberi minum. Setelah itu para gembala menutup sumur itu kembali.
(When all the droves have been gathered there, and they have rolled the stone from off the mouth of the well, and have watered the flock, then they have turned back the stone on the mouth of the well to its place.)
4 Lalu bertanyalah Yakub kepada para gembala yang ada di situ, "Hai kawan, dari mana kalian ini?" "Dari Haran," jawab mereka.
And Jacob says to them, “My brothers, where [are] you from?” And they say, “We [are] from Haran.”
5 Yakub bertanya lagi, "Kenalkah kalian kepada Laban anak Nahor?" "Kenal," jawab mereka.
And he says to them, “Have you known Laban, son of Nahor?” And they say, “We have known.”
6 "Bagaimana keadaannya?" tanya Yakub lagi. "Baik-baik saja," jawab mereka. "Lihatlah, itu anaknya perempuan yang bernama Rahel. Ia datang membawa kawanan kambing domba ayahnya."
And he says to them, “Does he have peace?” And they say, “Peace; and behold, his daughter Rachel is coming with the flock.”
7 Kata Yakub, "Hari masih siang dan belum tiba waktunya kambing domba dimasukkan ke dalam kandang. Mengapa binatang-binatang itu tidak kalian beri minum, lalu kalian biarkan makan rumput lagi?"
And he says, “Behold, the day [is] still great, [it is] not time for the livestock to be gathered; water the flock, and go, delight yourselves.”
8 Jawab mereka, "Kami baru dapat memberi minum domba-domba itu kalau semua kawanan domba sudah berkumpul di sini dan batu penutup sudah digulingkan."
And they say, “We are not able, until all the droves be gathered together, and they have rolled away the stone from the mouth of the well, and we have watered the flock.”
9 Selagi Yakub berbicara dengan mereka, Rahel datang dengan kawanan kambing dombanya.
He is yet speaking with them, and Rachel has come with the flock which her father has, for she [is] shepherdess;
10 Ketika Yakub melihat Rahel bersama kawanannya itu, pergilah Yakub ke sumur itu, lalu menggulingkan batu penutupnya ke samping dan memberi minum kawanan itu.
and it comes to pass, when Jacob has seen Rachel, daughter of his mother’s brother Laban, and the flock of his mother’s brother Laban, that Jacob comes near and rolls the stone from off the mouth of the well, and waters the flock of his mother’s brother Laban.
11 Kemudian ia mencium Rahel, dan menangis karena terharu.
And Jacob kisses Rachel, and lifts up his voice, and weeps,
12 Katanya kepada Rahel, "Saya anak Ribka, saudara ayahmu." Lalu berlarilah Rahel pulang ke rumahnya untuk menceritakan hal itu kepada ayahnya.
and Jacob declares to Rachel that he [is] her father’s brother, and that he [is] Rebekah’s son, and she runs and declares [it] to her father.
13 Ketika Laban mendengar berita tentang Yakub, kemanakannya itu, berlarilah ia hendak menemuinya. Laban memeluk Yakub dan menciumnya, lalu membawanya masuk ke dalam rumah. Setelah Yakub menceritakan segala hal ihwalnya kepada Laban,
And it comes to pass, when Laban hears the report of his sister’s son Jacob, that he runs to meet him, and embraces him, and kisses him, and brings him into his house; and he recounts to Laban all these things,
14 Laban berkata, "Memang benar, engkau keluarga dekat dengan saya." Yakub tinggal di rumah itu sebulan penuh.
and Laban says to him, “You [are] surely my bone and my flesh”; and he dwells with him a month of days.
15 Pada suatu hari berkatalah Laban kepada Yakub, "Tidak patut engkau bekerja padaku dengan cuma-cuma, hanya karena engkau sanak saudaraku. Berapa upah yang kauinginkan?"
And Laban says to Jacob, “Is it because you [are] my brother that you have served me for nothing? Declare to me what your hire [is].”
16 Adapun Laban mempunyai dua anak perempuan; yang sulung bernama Lea, dan adiknya bernama Rahel.
And Laban has two daughters, the name of the older [is] Leah, and the name of the younger Rachel,
17 Lea matanya indah, sedangkan Rahel bertubuh molek dan berwajah cantik.
and the eyes of Leah [are] tender, and Rachel has been beautiful of form and beautiful of appearance.
18 Yakub telah jatuh cinta kepada Rahel, sebab itu ia menjawab kepada Laban, "Saya mau bekerja selama tujuh tahun jika Paman mengizinkan saya kawin dengan Rahel."
And Jacob loves Rachel and says, “I serve you seven years for Rachel your younger daughter”:
19 Kata Laban, "Lebih baik saya berikan dia kepadamu daripada kepada orang lain; jadi tinggallah di sini."
and Laban says, “It is better for me to give her to you than to give her to another man; dwell with me”;
20 Maka bekerjalah Yakub selama tujuh tahun untuk mendapat Rahel, dan baginya tahun-tahun itu berlalu seperti beberapa hari saja, karena cintanya kepada gadis itu.
and Jacob serves for Rachel seven years; and they are in his eyes as some days, because of his loving her.
21 Sesudah itu Yakub berkata kepada Laban, "Tujuh tahun sudah lewat; izinkanlah saya kawin dengan anak Paman."
And Jacob says to Laban, “Give up my wife, for my days have been fulfilled, and I go in to her”;
22 Lalu Laban mengadakan pesta perkawinan dan mengundang semua orang di kota itu.
and Laban gathers all the men of the place, and makes a banquet.
23 Tetapi pada malam itu, bukan Rahel, melainkan Lea yang diantarkan Laban kepada Yakub, dan Yakub bersetubuh dengan dia.
And it comes to pass in the evening, that he takes his daughter Leah, and brings her to him, and he goes in to her;
24 (Laban memberikan hambanya perempuan yang bernama Zilpa kepada Lea, untuk menjadi hambanya.)
and Laban gives his maidservant Zilpah to her, to his daughter Leah, [for] a maidservant.
25 Baru keesokan harinya Yakub mengetahui bahwa Lea yang dikawininya. Lalu pergilah Yakub kepada Laban dan berkata, "Mengapa Paman perlakukan saya begini? Bukankah saya bekerja untuk mendapat Rahel? Mengapa Paman menipu saya?"
And it comes to pass in the morning, that behold, it [is] Leah; and he says to Laban, “What [is] this you have done to me? Have I not served with you for Rachel? And why have you deceived me?”
26 Laban menjawab, "Menurut adat di sini, adik tidak boleh kawin lebih dahulu daripada kakak.
And Laban says, “It is not done so in our place, to give the younger before the firstborn;
27 Tunggulah sampai selesai pesta tujuh hari perkawinan, nanti saya berikan Rahel kepadamu juga, asal engkau mau bekerja tujuh tahun lagi."
fulfill the period of seven [for] this one, and we also give to you this one, for the service which you serve with me yet seven other years.”
28 Yakub setuju, dan setelah pesta itu lewat, Laban memberikan kepadanya Rahel menjadi istrinya.
And Jacob does so, and fulfills the period of seven [for] this one, and he gives his daughter Rachel to him for a wife for him;
29 (Laban memberikan hambanya perempuan yang bernama Bilha kepada Rahel, untuk menjadi hambanya.)
and Laban gives his maidservant Bilhah to his daughter Rachel for a maidservant for her.
30 Yakub bersetubuh dengan Rahel juga, dan ia lebih mencintai Rahel daripada Lea. Kemudian ia bekerja tujuh tahun lagi.
And he also goes in to Rachel, and he also loves Rachel more than Leah; and he serves with him yet seven other years.
31 Ketika TUHAN melihat bahwa Lea tidak begitu dicintai seperti Rahel, TUHAN mengizinkan Lea melahirkan anak, tetapi Rahel tetap tidak mendapat anak.
And YHWH sees that Leah [is] the hated one, and He opens her womb, and Rachel [is] barren;
32 Lea mengandung lalu melahirkan seorang anak laki-laki. Katanya, "TUHAN telah melihat kesusahan saya, dan sekarang suami saya akan mencintai saya." Lalu dinamakannya anaknya itu Ruben.
and Leah conceives, and bears a son, and calls his name Reuben, for she said, “Because YHWH has looked on my affliction; because now does my husband love me.”
33 Lea mengandung lagi lalu melahirkan seorang anak laki-laki. Kata Lea, "TUHAN telah memberikan kepada saya anak ini pula karena didengarnya bahwa saya tidak dicintai." Lalu dinamakannya anaknya itu Simeon.
And she conceives again, and bears a son, and says, “Because YHWH has heard that I [am] the hated one, He also gives to me even this [one]”; and she calls his name Simeon.
34 Lea mengandung lagi lalu melahirkan seorang anak laki-laki. Katanya, "Sekarang suami saya akan lebih terikat kepada saya karena saya telah melahirkan tiga anak laki-laki." Lalu dinamakannya anaknya itu Lewi.
And she conceives again and bears a son, and says, “Now [is] the time, my husband is joined to me, because I have born to him three sons,” therefore has [one] called his name Levi.
35 Kemudian Lea hamil lagi dan melahirkan seorang anak laki-laki. Katanya, "Kali ini saya akan memuji TUHAN." Lalu dinamakannya anaknya itu Yehuda. Sesudah itu Lea tidak melahirkan lagi.
And she conceives again and bears a son, and this time says, “I praise YHWH”; therefore has she called his name Judah; and she ceases from bearing.
