Jenesis 30

1 Resoli'a mofavrea Jekopuna kase omino nuna'amofo kaniverenenteno, amanage huno Jekopuna asami'ne, Mofavre onte manine'na frisugi, Mofavre eri fore hunamio.

When Rachel saw that she was not bearing any children for Jacob, she envied her sister. “Give me children, or I will die!” she said to Jacob.

2 Higeno Jekopuna asi vazigeno Resolina rinkfa henenteno amanage hu'ne, Nagra Anumzana omani'noanki, aza karimpa erikigenka mofavrea kamu'enena hunka kasenontane.

Jacob became angry with Rachel and said, “Am I in the place of God, who has withheld children from you?”

3 Higeno Resoli'a amanage hu'ne, Kato mofani'a Bilha'a ama mani'neanki, antenka masegeno mofavre kase naminkeno, agripinti nagranena ana zanke hu'na mofavrea eri fore haneno.

Then she said, “Here is my maidservant Bilhah. Sleep with her, that she may bear children for me, so that through her I too can build a family.”

4 Anage nehuno kato mofa'a Bilhana amigeno anaroza higeno, Jekopu'a anteno mase'ne.

So Rachel gave Jacob her servant Bilhah as a wife, and he slept with her,

5 Ana higeno Bilha'a Jekopunteti amu'ene huno ne'mofavre kasente'ne.

and Bilhah conceived and bore him a son.

6 Resoli'a amanage hu'ne, Anumzamo'a fatgoza hu'nane nehuno, nunamuni'a antahinamino ne'mofavre namie. Nehuno agi'a Dani'e huno ante'ne.

Then Rachel said, “God has vindicated me; He has heard my plea and given me a son.” So she named him Dan.

7 Resoli kato mofa Bilha'a ete mago'ene amu'ene huno Jekopuna ne'mofavre kase amigeno tare se'ne.

And Rachel’s servant Bilhah conceived again and bore Jacob a second son.

8 Resoli'a nevreno anage hu'ne, nuna nimofona tusiza hu'na kruno renente'na agateroe. Anage nehuno ana mofavremofo agi'a Naftali'e huno ante'ne.

Then Rachel said, “In my great struggles, I have wrestled with my sister and won.” So she named him Naphtali.

9 Hanki Lia'a mago'ene mofavre onte mani'neno keana higeno, kato mofa'a Zilpana avreno Jekopu nenaroza hinogu eme ami'ne.

When Leah saw that she had stopped having children, she gave her servant Zilpah to Jacob as a wife.

10 Lia kato mofa Zilpa'a Jekopuna ne'mofavre kase ami'ne.

And Leah’s servant Zilpah bore Jacob a son.

11 Anante Lia'a amanage hu'ne, Na knare'za hue, nehuno agi'a Gati'e huno antemi'ne.

Then Leah said, “How fortunate!” So she named him Gad.

12 Lia kato a'mo Zilpa'a ne'mofavre Jekopuna kase amigeno tare se'ne.

When Leah’s servant Zilpah bore Jacob a second son,

13 Ana higeno Lia'a anage hu'ne, Nagra muse huankino, a'nemo'za muse hu'mo'e hugahaze. Nehuno Asa'e huno agi'a antemi'ne.

Leah said, “How happy I am! For the women call me happy.” So she named him Asher.

14 Witi taga hu'za eme vatu nehaza knare, Rubeni'a vano hiregati mago'a rone hunte flaua raga (Mandrake) erino nerera Lia hirega e'ne. Higeno Resoli'a amanage huno Liana antahige'ne, Muse (plis) hugantoanki Rubeni'ma rone hu flaua'mofo raga'a eme kami'nefintira mago'a namio.

Now during the wheat harvest, Reuben went out and found some mandrakes in the field. When he brought them to his mother, Rachel begged Leah, “Please give me some of your son’s mandrakes.”

15 Hianagi Lia'a amanage hu'ne, Kagrama nenavema hanre'nanana, e'i osi zampi? Hutenka menina ne' mofavrenimo'ma ronema hu flauama erino'ma e'nea erisue hunka nehano? Higeno Resoli anage hu'ne, Ha knarere, ana ronehu flauama namisana nona'a Jekopu'a meni kenage kagrane emasegahie.

But Leah replied, “Is it not enough that you have taken away my husband? Now you want to take my son’s mandrakes as well?” “Very well,” said Rachel, “he may sleep with you tonight in exchange for your son’s mandrakes.”

16 Higeno ana zupa kinaga Jekopu'a hozaregati ne-egeno, Lia'a kantegati ome nevreno anage huno asmi'ne, mofavre'nimo'ma rone hu flauama erino e'nea flauateti Resolina nemina, kagrira ko miza se'noanki, kagra enka nagrane emasegahane. Higeno ana kenege Jekopu'a Lia'ene umase'ne.

When Jacob came in from the field that evening, Leah went out to meet him and said, “You must come with me, for I have hired you with my son’s mandrakes.” So he slept with her that night.

17 Anumzamo'a Leana antahi amigeno, amu'ene huno 5fu'mofona ne'mofavre Jekopu'na kase ami'ne.

And God listened to Leah, and she conceived and bore a fifth son to Jacob.

18 Lia anage hu'ne, Anumzamo'a mizani'a namie, na'ankure eri'za mofani'a nenave avre amugeno anteno masegeno mofavre kase nami'ne. Huteno agi'a Isaka'e huno antemi'ne.

Then Leah said, “God has rewarded me for giving my maidservant to my husband.” So she named him Issachar.

19 Lia'a Isaka amageteti amu'ene huno 6simofona ne'mofavre Jekopuna kase ami'ne.

Again Leah conceived and bore a sixth son to Jacob.

20 Lia'a anage hu'ne, Anumzamo'a mareri'nea miza muse hunanteno nami'neankino, menina nenave'a nagrira antahinamigahie. Na'ankure 6si'a ne'mofavre kase amue. Nehuno agi'a Zebuluni'e huno ante'ne.

“God has given me a good gift,” she said. “This time my husband will honor me, because I have borne him six sons.” And she named him Zebulun.

21 Henka'a Lia'a Zebuluni amagetetira mofara mago anteno agi'a Daina'e hu'ne.

After that, Leah gave birth to a daughter and named her Dinah.

22 Anantera Anumzamo'a Resoli nunamuna antahi'nemino mofavre ante ku'a eri vasanente'ne.

Then God remembered Rachel. He listened to her and opened her womb,

23 Ana higeno amu'ene huno ne'mofavre kasenenteno anage hu'ne, Anumzamo'a nagaze zana eri amne hunante huno nehuno,

and she conceived and gave birth to a son. “God has taken away my shame,” she said.

24 agi'a Josefe'e huno antenemi'no anage hu'ne, Anumzamo'a ne'mofavrea mago'ene namisie.

She named him Joseph, and said, “May the LORD add to me another son.”

25 Hagi Resoli'a Josefema kasentetegeno Jekopu'a Lebanina amanage huno asami'ne, nonkuma'niare mopani'arega vunaku huanki hunantege'na va'neno.

Now after Rachel had given birth to Joseph, Jacob said to Laban, “Send me on my way so I can return to my homeland.

26 A'neni'ane mofavre nagani'ane zamagriku hu'na eri'zanka'a eri'na e'noanki natregena va'neno. Hagi kagrake'za eri'zama erigante'noa zana kenka antahinka hu'nane.

Give me my wives and children for whom I have served you, that I may go on my way. You know how hard I have worked for you.”

27 Hianagi Lebani'a amanage huno Jekopuna asami'ne, Nagrama kasnampa hu'na kagri'ma kagoana, nagrane mani'nankeno Ra Anumzamo'a kagriku huno asomura hunenante. Hagi menima kagrama kavesi nantesunka nagrane manio.

But Laban replied, “If I have found favor in your eyes, please stay. I have learned by divination that the LORD has blessed me because of you.”

28 Nehuno Lebani'a ru'ene kea avazu huno anage hu'ne, Kema hananama'a ana avamente kamigahue. Hagi miza agi ahenanto.

And he added, “Name your wages, and I will pay them.”

29 Higeno Jekopu'a amanage huno asami'ne, nagrama eri'zanka'a eri'na neogeno maka afukamo knareke huno e'neana, kagra kenka antahinka hu'nane.

Then Jacob answered, “You know how I have served you and how your livestock have thrived under my care.

30 Nagrama ome'nogenka, kagra osi'a sipisipi afuzaga ante'nananagi, nagrama erua eri'zampi Ra Anumzamo'a asomu hugantegeno rukazi huno rama'a fore hu'ne. Hagi ina zupa natre'nankena a' mofavreni'a zamaza hugahue?

Indeed, you had very little before my arrival, but now your wealth has increased many times over. The LORD has blessed you wherever I set foot. But now, when may I also provide for my own household?”

31 Higeno Lebani'a amanage huno Jekopuna asmi'ne, Na'a nagra kamigahue? Higeno Jekopu'a anage hu'ne, Kagra mago zane hunka onamigahane. Kagra magoke zantfa nagrira hunantegahane, nagra mago'ene afuzagaka'a traza me'nesirega kegava hugantegahue.

“What can I give you?” Laban asked. “You do not need to give me anything,” Jacob replied. “If you do this one thing for me, I will keep on shepherding and keeping your flocks.

32 Hagi menina natrege'na maka afu zagaka'a mani'nafi vano nehu'na, tupri tapri sipisipine, aganumpa lama anenta'ma tegre ramine'niane, tupri tapri hu'nenia memene avre rure ha'nenkeno, e'i ana afu'zagamo nagri miza megahie.

Let me go through all your flocks today and remove from them every speckled or spotted sheep, every dark-colored lamb, and every spotted or speckled goat. These will be my wages.

33 Henka mizama naminaku hanana zupa, havigema hu'zankura e'i anamo eriama hunantegahie. Hakare'a agrono kre ramineni'ane, tupri tapri osu'nenia memempi, aganumpa osu'nenia lama anenta'enema, nagri afupima kenunka kumzafa se'nane huo.

So my honesty will testify for me when you come to check on my wages in the future. If I have any goats that are not speckled or spotted, or any lambs that are not dark-colored, they will be considered stolen.”

34 Higeno Lebani'a amanage hu'ne, Ha knareki, kema hanaza huo.

“Agreed,” said Laban. “Let it be as you have said.”

35 Higeno ana zagekna zupage, agra'a Lebani'a vuno maka'a agrono krerami'neane, tupri taprima hu'nea ve memene tupri tapri hu'nea a' memene, efeke hu'neane, aganumpa sipisipi afura avrezamige'za amohe'za afete'are ome ante'za kegava hu'naze.

That very day Laban removed all the streaked or spotted male goats and every speckled or spotted female goat—every one that had any white on it—and every dark-colored lamb, and he placed them under the care of his sons.

36 Lebani'a Jekopuna atreno taregi magoki zagegna vu'are afete afu'zaga'a avreno umanigeno, Jekopu'a ruga'a afu'zagare kegava krino mani'ne.

Then he put a three-day journey between himself and Jacob, while Jacob was shepherding the rest of Laban’s flocks.

37 Hianagi kegava huno mani'neno tagufa ruzahu ruzahu zafamofo azankunatmi akafrino, ukari'za mago'a nehareno nohareno higeno efeke nehigeno, tupri tapri hu'ne. Ana zafa ukari'ma haregeno'a efeke hu'ne.

Jacob, however, took fresh branches of poplar, almond, and plane trees, and peeled the bark, exposing the white inner wood of the branches.

38 E'i ana zafa azankunatamina erino vuno sipisipine mememo'za ti nenazare zamavuga ana zotaramina mopafi ome rentetere hu'ne. Hagi tima nenaku esanu'za eme nege'za ve afu'moza a' afu'tamimofo zamagumpi marerihogu anara hu'ne.

Then he set the peeled branches in the watering troughs in front of the flocks coming in to drink. So when the flocks were in heat and came to drink,

39 Hanki e'i ana zafa azankunatamima rente'nea tva'ontema ve afu'mo'ma a' afumofo agumpima marerinkeno'a, ana afu'mo'a tupri tapri azoka'ene anenta antegahie.

they mated in front of the branches. And they bore young that were streaked or speckled or spotted.

40 Hanki Jekopu'a tupri tapri' azoka'ene ve afu'zaga agra'a suza refko huganti netreno, aganumpa ve afuzaga zamatrege'za Lebani afuzagafi mani'naze.

Jacob set apart the young, but made the rest face the streaked dark-colored sheep in Laban’s flocks. Then he set his own stock apart and did not put them with Laban’s animals.

41 Hanki hankavenetake ve afu'zagamo'zama a' afumokizmi zamagumpima marerizama nehazageno'a, Jekopu'a ana zafa azankuna zamavuga tinkampi arentetere hu'ne. Ana hige'za zafa azankuna rente'nea tava'onte agumpina mareritere hu'naze.

Whenever the stronger females of the flock were in heat, Jacob would place the branches in the troughs, in full view of the animals, so that they would breed in front of the branches.

42 Hianagi hankave'a omane'nea ve afu'zagamo'zama, a' afu'mokizmi zamagumpima marerizama nehazageno'a, Jekopu'a ana zafa azankunatamina zamavuga ome reonte'ne. Hagi hankave'a omne'nea afu'zaga e'i Lebani afu'zagagi, hanave afu'zaga Jekopu suzane.

But if the animals were weak, he did not set out the branches. So the weaker animals went to Laban and the stronger ones to Jacob.

43 Ana nehuno afu'amo hakare higeno, eri'za vene a'ene, kemorine, donkine, hakare'aza nenteno Jekopu'a feno ne' efore hu'ne.

Thus Jacob became exceedingly prosperous. He owned large flocks, maidservants and menservants, and camels and donkeys.
