1 Jekopu'a masetere hume vuno, zage hanati kaziga vahe'mofo mopafi uhanati'ne.
Then Jacob went on his journey till he came to the land of the children of the East.
2 Agra kesga huno trazampi keana, tinkerire tagufa afu kevu masenageno ke'ne, ana tikerireti sipisipiramina tina afi'za nezmize. Hanki ana tinkerimofo agitera ra have runkani rente'naze.
And there he saw a water-hole in a field, and by the side of it three flocks of sheep, for there they got water for the sheep: and on the mouth of the water-hole there was a great stone.
3 Anante mika sipisipi kva vahe'mo'za utru hute'za, kerimofo agiteti havea atufe ante'ne'za, tina afi'za sipisipi zamia zamite'za, ete ana havea atufe'za ana kerimofo avazare runkani rentetere nehazane.
And all the flocks would come together there, and when the stone had been rolled away, they would give the sheep water, and put the stone back again in its place on the mouth of the water-hole.
4 Hagi Jekopu'a zamagrikura amanage hu'ne, Nafuheta tamagra igatire? Hige'za kenona hu'za, Tagra Haranitire.
Then Jacob said to the herdmen, My brothers, where do you come from? And they said, From Haran.
5 Hazageno Agra amanage huno zamasmi'ne, Nahori negeho Lebanina ke'nazo? Hige'za zamagra kenona amanage hu'naze, Tagra agrira ke'none.
And he said to them, Have you any knowledge of Laban, the son of Nahor? And they said, We have.
6 Hazageno Jekopu'a zamagrira amanage huno zamasmi'ne, Lebani'a knare huno mani'nefi? Hige'za zamagra hu'za, Agra knare huno mani'ne. Hanki antu ko, agri'mofa Resoli'a sipisipi zaga'ane ne-e.
And he said to them, Is he well? And they said, He is well, and here is Rachel his daughter coming with the sheep.
7 Hazageno Jekopu'a anage huno zamasmine, Keho, zagea anamifi megeno afu'zagarami eritru hukna omane'neanki, sipisipi afuzaga tina nezmita zamavareta vinke'za trazana ome neho, huno nehige'za,
Then Jacob said, The sun is still high and it is not time to get the cattle together: get water for the sheep and go and give them their food.
8 zamagra amanage hu'naze, E'inahura osu'nenunkeno mika'a emetru hute'nageta, tinkeriretira have avaza'a eritreta tina afi zamisunke'za negahaze.
And they said, We are not able to do so till all the flocks have come together and the stone has been rolled away from the mouth of the water-hole; then we will get water for the sheep.
9 Hagi Jekopu'a nanekea zamagrane nehigeno, Resoli'a agra sipisipi kva nehia mofakino, nefa sipisipi zamavareno e'ne.
While he was still talking with them, Rachel came with her father's sheep, for she took care of them.
10 Jekopu'a nenogo Lebani mofa Resoli'ma sipisipi'ane ne-egeno, negeno vuno tin keriretira havea ome rekrehe huno, nerera nesaro Lebani sipisipia ti afizmi'ne.
Then when Jacob saw Rachel, the daughter of Laban, his mother's brother, coming with Laban's sheep, he came near, and rolling the stone away from the mouth of the hole, he got water for Laban's flock.
11 Anante Jekopu'a Resolina antako hunenteno, ranke huno zavi ate'ne.
And weeping for joy, Jacob gave Rachel a kiss.
12 Jekopu'a Resolina amanage huno asamine, Nafakamofo nesaro Rebeka mofavre mani'noe, higeno Resoli'a agareno vuno nefa ome asmi'ne.
And Rachel, hearing from Jacob that he was her father's relation and that he was the son of Rebekah, went running to give her father news of it.
13 Hanki Lebani'a nesaro mofavre nenogo nenekema nentahino'a, ome ke'naku agareno vuno, ome anukino antako hunenteno avreno noma'afi e'ne. Ana higeno Jekopu'a hakare'a kea asami vaga'rene.
And Laban, hearing news of Jacob, his sister's son, came running, and took Jacob in his arms, and kissing him, made him come into his house. And Jacob gave him news of everything.
14 Ana hutegeno Lebani'a amanage huno asami'ne, Kagra nagri kora mani'nane. Higeno Jekopu'a anante mago ika agrane mani'ne.
And Laban said to him, Truly, you are my bone and my flesh. And he kept Jacob with him for the space of a month.
15 Hagi Lebani'a amanage huno Jekopuna asami'ne, Kagra nagri kora mani'nankure hunka amne eri'zana e'origahane. Nama'a kagrira miza hugantegahufi nasamio?
Then Laban said to Jacob, Because you are my brother are you to be my servant for nothing? say now, what is your payment to be?
16 Lebani'a tare mofatre zanante'ne, kotamofo agi'a Lia'e, osi'mofo agi'a Resoli'e.
Now Laban had two daughters: the name of the older was Leah, and the name of the younger was Rachel.
17 Lia avurgamo'a kazakiri'ne, hagi Resoli avurgamo'ene, avufgamo enena knarezantfa hu'ne.
And Leah's eyes were clouded, but Rachel was fair in face and form.
18 Jekopu'a Resolina avesinenteno amanage hu'ne, Nagra 7ni'a kafufi mofaka'a Resolima a'ma erinte'nakura erizanka'a erigantegahue.
And Jacob was in love with Rachel; and he said, I will be your servant seven years for Rachel, your younger daughter.
19 Higeno Lebani'a amanage hu'ne, Ru vahe ami'zankura kagri'ma kamisuana knare hu'neanki nagrane manio.
And Laban said, It is better for you to have her than another man: go on living here with me.
20 Jekopu'a 7ni'a zagegfufi Resolima a'ma erikura eri'zana eri'neankino, ana knamo'a agritera osi knasente'ne. Na'ankure agrama Resolima avesinte'negu anara hu'ne.
And Jacob did seven years' work for Rachel; and because of his love for her it seemed to him only a very little time.
21 Hagi henka ana knamo'a vagaregeno Jekopu'a amanage huno Lebanikura hu'ne, Knama nami'nana knamo'a hago vagareanki, a'ni'a namige'na ara eri'neno.
Then Jacob said to Laban, Give me my wife so that I may have her, for the days are ended.
22 Higeno Lebani'a ana kumate vahera miko zamare tru huno, aravema hu ne'za kre'ne.
And Laban got together all the men of the place and gave a feast.
23 Ana kenegera Lebani'a Lia avreno Jekopu ome amigeno anteno mase'ne.
And in the evening he took Leah, his daughter, and gave her to him, and he went in to her.
24 Lebani'a eri'za erinentea a' Zilpa avreno mofa'a Lia katoza huminogu eme ami'ne.
And Laban gave Zilpah, his servant-girl, to Leah, to be her waiting-woman.
25 Hanki Jekopu'a maseno kotigeno nanterama keana Lia mani'negeno keteno, agra amanage Lebanikura hu'ne, Resolinte eri'zana eri kantenoanki, kagra na'a amazana hunantane? Nahigenka renavatga hane?
And in the morning Jacob saw that it was Leah: and he said to Laban, What have you done to me? was I not working for you so that I might have Rachel? why have you been false to me?
26 Anage hianagi Lebani'a ana kenona amanage hu'ne, Tagri kumapina nagna'amo nuna'amofo agatereno ve' eri'zana omane'ne.
And Laban said, In our country we do not let the younger daughter be married before the older.
27 Mago sonta manitegeta, tagra mago'mofona kamisnunkenka ara erigahananki, ete mago'ene 7ni'a zagegafu eri'zana eri nantegahane.
Let the week of the bride-feast come to its end and then we will give you the other in addition, if you will be my servant for another seven years.
28 Higeno Jekopu'a mago sonta Lia'ene mani vagare'tegeno, Lebani'a mofa'a Resolina avreno Jekopuna amigeno nenaro'za hu'ne.
And Jacob did so; and when the week was ended, Laban gave him his daughter Rachel for his wife.
29 Lebani'a, katozama'a e'neri a' Bilhana avreno Resoli katoza eri aminogu ami'ne.
And Laban gave Rachel his servant-girl Bilhah to be her waiting-woman.
30 Hanki Jekopu'a Resolina anteno mase'ne, agra Liama avesi nenteama'a agatereno Resolina tusiza huno avesintene. Agra ana nehuno Lebanina erizana 7ni'a zagegafufi erinte'ne.
Then Jacob took Rachel as his wife, and his love for her was greater than his love for Leah; and he went on working for Laban for another seven years.
31 Hanki Ra Anumzamo'ma keana Jekopu'a Liana avesi ontegeno, Anumzamo'a rimpa eri vasne'ne, ana hianagi Resoli'a narvo a' mani'ne.
Now the Lord, seeing that Leah was not loved, gave her a child; while Rachel had no children.
32 Lia'a amu'ene huno ne' kasenteno agi'a Rubeni'e huno nenteno anage hu'ne, Na'ankure Ra Anumzamo natazani'a nazeri knare hiankino, nenave'a avesi nantegahie.
And Leah was with child, and gave birth to a son to whom she gave the name Reuben: for she said, The Lord has seen my sorrow; now my husband will have love for me.
33 Anante Lia'a mago'ene amu'ene huno ne' kasenteno amanage hu'ne, nenave'a avesi onantegeno Ra Anumzamo antahi namino mago'ene ama mofavrea nenamie, nehuno Simioni'e huno agia antemi'ne.
Then she became with child again, and gave birth to a son; and said, Because it has come to the Lord's ears that I am not loved, he has given me this son in addition: and she gave him the name Simeon.
34 Anante Lia'a amu'ene huno ne' kasenteno amanage hu'ne, Menina ama knarera, nenave'a tvaonire manigahie. Na'ankure nagra tagufa ne'mofavre kase amue. Ana hu'negu agi'a Levi'e huno antemi'ne.
And she was with child again, and gave birth to a son; and said, Now at last my husband will be united to me, because I have given him three sons: so he was named Levi.
35 Anante Lia'a mago'ene amu'ene huno, ne'mofavre kasenteno amanage hu'ne, Menina nagra Ra Anumzamofo agi'a erisga hue. Ana hu'negu agi'a Juda'e hu'ne. Ana huteno ana a'mo'a mago'ene mofavrea onte'ne.
And she was with child again, and gave birth to a son: and she said, This time I will give praise to the Lord: so he was named Judah; after this she had no more children for a time.
