Kejadian 30

1 Tetapi Rahel belum juga mendapat anak. Sebab itu dia menjadi cemburu kepada kakaknya, lalu berkata kepada Yakub, "Berikanlah anak kepada saya, kalau tidak, saya akan mati."

And when Rachel saw that she bare Jacob no children, Rachel envied her sister; and said unto Jacob, Give me children, or else I die.

2 Yakub marah kepada Rahel dan berkata, "Saya ini bukan Allah. Dialah yang membuat engkau tidak mendapat anak."

And Jacob's anger was kindled against Rachel: and he said, Am I in God's position, who has withheld from you the fruit of the womb?

3 Lalu kata Rahel, "Ini hamba saya Bilha; tidurlah dengan dia supaya ia melahirkan. Dengan demikian saya bisa menjadi ibu melalui dia."

And she said, Behold my maid Bilhah, go in unto her; and she shall bear upon my knees, that I may also have children by her.

4 Lalu diberikannya Bilha kepada suaminya, dan Yakub bersetubuh dengan hamba itu.

And she gave him Bilhah her handmaid to wife: and Jacob went in unto her.

5 Bilha mengandung lalu melahirkan seorang anak laki-laki.

And Bilhah conceived, and bare Jacob a son.

6 Rahel berkata, "Allah telah mengadili untuk kepentingan saya. Didengarnya doaku dan diberikannya seorang anak laki-laki kepada saya." Lalu dinamakannya anak itu Dan.

And Rachel said, God has judged me, and has also heard my voice, and has given me a son: therefore called she his name Dan.

7 Bilha mengandung lagi dan melahirkan seorang anak laki-laki.

And Bilhah Rachel's maid conceived again, and bare Jacob a second son.

8 Kata Rahel, "Saya telah berjuang mati-matian melawan kakak saya, dan saya menang," karena itu dinamakannya anak itu Naftali.

And Rachel said, With great wrestlings have I wrestled with my sister, and I have prevailed: and she called his name Naphtali.

9 Ketika Lea menyadari bahwa ia tidak bisa mendapat anak lagi, diberikannya hambanya, yaitu Zilpa, kepada Yakub untuk menjadi istri.

When Leah saw that she had left bearing, she took Zilpah her maid, and gave her Jacob to wife.

10 Zilpa melahirkan seorang anak laki-laki.

And Zilpah Leah's maid bare Jacob a son.

11 Lea berkata, "Saya beruntung," lalu dinamakannya anak itu Gad.

And Leah said, A troop comes: and she called his name Gad.

12 Zilpa melahirkan seorang anak laki-laki lagi,

And Zilpah Leah's maid bare Jacob a second son.

13 dan Lea berkata, "Alangkah berbahagia saya! Sekarang semua wanita akan mengatakan saya berbahagia." Karena itu dinamakannya anak itu Asyer.

And Leah said, Happy am I, for the daughters will call me blessed: and she called his name Asher.

14 Pada musim panen gandum, Ruben pergi ke padang dan ditemukannya di sana sejenis tanaman obat, lalu dibawanya kepada Lea, ibunya. Rahel berkata kepada Lea, "Berikanlah kepada saya sedikit dari tanaman obat yang ditemukan anakmu itu."

And Reuben went in the days of wheat harvest, and found mandrakes in the field, and brought them unto his mother Leah. Then Rachel said to Leah, Give me, I pray you, of your son's mandrakes.

15 Jawab Lea, "Belum cukupkah engkau mengambil suami saya? Sekarang engkau malahan mencoba pula mengambil tanaman obat yang ditemukan anak saya." Kata Rahel, "Jika engkau mau memberikan tanaman obat anakmu itu kepada saya, engkau boleh tidur dengan Yakub malam ini."

And she said unto her, Is it a small matter that you have taken my husband? and would you take away my son's mandrakes also? And Rachel said, Therefore he shall lie with you to night for your son's mandrakes.

16 Ketika Yakub pulang ke rumah dari padang sore itu, Lea menyambutnya sambil berkata, "Tidurlah bersama saya malam ini karena saya telah membayar untuk itu dengan tanaman obat dari anak saya." Lalu Yakub bersetubuh dengan dia pada malam itu.

And Jacob came out of the field in the evening, and Leah went out to meet him, and said, You must come in unto me; for surely I have hired you with my son's mandrakes. And he lay with her that night.

17 Allah mengabulkan doa Lea, dan ia mengandung lalu melahirkan anak yang kelima.

And God hearkened unto Leah, and she conceived, and bare Jacob the fifth son.

18 Kata Lea, "Allah telah memberi saya upah sebab saya telah menyerahkan Zilpa kepada suami saya," karena itu dinamakannya anaknya itu Isakhar.

And Leah said, God has given me my hire, because I have given my maiden to my husband: and she called his name Issachar.

19 Lea mengandung lagi dan melahirkan anaknya yang keenam.

And Leah conceived again, and bare Jacob the sixth son.

20 Katanya, "Allah telah memberikan kepada saya hadiah yang indah sekali. Sekarang suami saya akan menghargai saya, sebab saya telah melahirkan enam anak laki-laki," karena itu dinamakannya anaknya itu Zebulon.

And Leah said, God has imbued me with a good dowry; now will my husband dwell with me, because I have born him six sons: and she called his name Zebulun.

21 Sesudah itu Lea melahirkan seorang anak perempuan yang dinamakannya Dina.

And afterwards she bare a daughter, and called her name Dinah.

22 Lalu ingatlah Allah akan Rahel; Allah mengabulkan doanya dan memungkinkan dia melahirkan anak.

And God remembered Rachel, and God hearkened to her, and opened her womb.

23 Maka Rahel mengandung dan melahirkan seorang anak laki-laki. Kata Rahel, "Allah telah menghilangkan kehinaan saya.

And she conceived, and bare a son; and said, God has taken away my reproach:

24 Semoga TUHAN memberikan kepada saya anak laki-laki seorang lagi." Karena itu dinamakannya anaknya itu Yusuf.

And she called his name Joseph; and said, The LORD shall add to me another son.

25 Sesudah Rahel melahirkan Yusuf, Yakub berkata kepada Laban, "Izinkanlah saya pulang ke negeri saya.

And it came to pass, when Rachel had born Joseph, that Jacob said unto Laban, Send me away, that I may go unto mine own place, and to my country.

26 Biarkan saya pergi membawa kedua istri serta anak-anak saya. Mereka telah saya peroleh dengan bekerja pada Paman. Paman tahu, saya sudah bekerja keras sekali."

Give me my wives and my children, for whom I have served you, and let me go: for you know my service which I have done you.

27 Laban berkata kepadanya, "Dengar dulu: Saya mendapat ramalan bahwa TUHAN telah memberkati saya karena engkau.

And Laban said unto him, I pray you, if I have found favour in your eyes, tarry: for I have learned by experience that the LORD has blessed me for your sake.

28 Katakan saja berapa yang kauminta."

And he said, Appoint me your wages, and I will give it.

29 Jawab Yakub, "Paman sendiri tahu saya sudah bekerja keras sekali, dan ternak Paman bertambah banyak karena pemeliharaan saya.

And he said unto him, You know how I have served you, and how your cattle was with me.

30 Sebelum saya datang, harta milik Paman tidak seberapa, tetapi sekarang Paman sudah kaya. TUHAN telah memberkati Paman karena saya. Sekarang sudah waktunya saya bekerja untuk keluarga saya sendiri."

For it was little which you had before I came, and it is now increased unto a multitude; and the LORD has blessed you since my coming: and now when shall I provide for mine own house also?

31 Kata Laban, "Jadi apa yang harus kuberikan kepadamu?" Yakub menjawab, "Tak usah Paman berikan apa-apa. Saya akan tetap memelihara ternak Paman, asal Paman setuju dengan usul saya ini:

And he said, What shall I give you? And Jacob said, You shall not give me any thing: if you will do this thing for me, I will again feed and keep your flock.

32 Izinkan saya pada hari ini berjalan di tengah-tengah segala kawanan kambing domba Paman, dan mengambil setiap anak domba yang hitam, dan juga setiap kambing muda yang belang atau berbintik-bintik. Itu saja upah yang saya inginkan.

I will pass through all your flock to day, removing from thence all the speckled and spotted cattle, and all the brown cattle among the sheep, and the spotted and speckled among the goats: and of such shall be my hire.

33 Di kemudian hari dengan mudah dapat Paman ketahui apakah saya telah berlaku jujur. Bilamana Paman datang untuk memeriksa upah saya, dan melihat ada kambing yang tidak berbintik-bintik atau belang, atau domba yang tidak hitam, Paman akan tahu bahwa binatang itu telah saya curi."

So shall my righteousness answer for me in time to come, when it shall come for my hire before your face: every one that is not speckled and spotted among the goats, and brown among the sheep, that shall be counted stolen with me.

34 Laban menjawab, "Setuju! Kita akan melakukan apa yang kauusulkan itu!"

And Laban said, Behold, I would it might be according to your word.

35 Tetapi pada hari itu Laban memisahkan semua kambing jantan yang loreng atau belang dan semua kambing betina yang belang, berbintik-bintik, atau yang ada noda putihnya; ia juga memisahkan semua domba yang hitam. Kemudian disuruhnya anak-anaknya mengurus binatang-binatang itu,

And he removed that day the he goats that were striped with bands and spotted, and all the she goats that were speckled and spotted, and every one that had some white in it, and all the brown among the sheep, and gave them into the hand of his sons.

36 lalu pergilah mereka dengan binatang-binatang itu menjauhi Yakub, jaraknya tiga hari perjalanan. Sisa dari kawanan kambing domba milik Laban dipelihara oleh Yakub.

And he set three days' journey between himself and Jacob: and Jacob fed the rest of Laban's flocks.

37 Kemudian Yakub mengambil dahan-dahan hijau dari pohon hawar, pohon badam dan pohon berangan, dan mengupas sebagian dari kulitnya sehingga menjadi belang-belang.

And Jacob took him rods of green poplar, and of the hazel and chestnut tree; and stripped white strakes in them, and made the white appear which was in the rods.

38 Diletakkannya dahan-dahan itu di depan kawanan kambing itu, di dalam tempat minumnya, karena binatang-binatang itu suka kawin waktu hendak minum.

And he set the rods which he had stripped before the flocks in the gutters in the watering troughs when the flocks came to drink, that they should conceive when they came to drink.

39 Jadi jika kambing-kambing itu kawin di depan dahan-dahan itu, anaknya loreng atau belang atau berbintik-bintik.

And the flocks conceived before the rods, and brought forth cattle striped with bands, speckled, and spotted.

40 Kemudian Yakub mengambil domba-domba lalu menghadapkannya ke arah kambing-kambing yang loreng dan hitam. Dengan cara itu ia memperoleh kawanan binatangnya sendiri dan memisahkannya dari kawanan binatang Laban.

And Jacob did separate the lambs, and set the faces of the flocks toward the striped with bands, and all the brown in the flock of Laban; and he put his own flocks by themselves, and put them not unto Laban's cattle.

41 Apabila binatang-binatang yang kuat sedang kawin, Yakub meletakkan dahan-dahan yang dikupasnya itu di depan mereka, di dalam tempat minumnya.

And it came to pass, whenever the stronger cattle did conceive, that Jacob laid the rods before the eyes of the cattle in the gutters, that they might conceive among the rods.

42 Tetapi dahan-dahan itu tidak diletakkannya di depan binatang-binatang yang lemah. Jadi, semua binatang yang putih itu lemah, dan itulah milik Laban, sedangkan semua binatang yang hitam, belang dan berbintik-bintik itu kuat, dan itulah milik Yakub.

But when the cattle were feeble, he put them not in: so the feebler were Laban's, and the stronger Jacob's.

43 Dengan demikian Yakub menjadi kaya raya. Dia mempunyai banyak kawanan kambing domba, unta, keledai dan hamba-hamba.

And the man increased exceedingly, and had much cattle, and maidservants, and male servants, and camels, and asses.
