창세기 30
1 라헬이 자기가 야곱에게 아들을 낳지 못함을 보고 그 형을 투기하여 야곱에게 이르되 `나로 자식을 낳게 하라 그렇지 아니하면 내가 죽겠노라'
And Rachel sees that she has not borne to Jacob, and Rachel is envious of her sister, and says to Jacob, “Give me sons, and if there is none—I die.”
2 야곱이 라헬에게 노를 발하여 가로되 `그대로 성태치 못하게 하시는 이는 하나님이시니 내가 하나님을 대신하겠느냐?'
And Jacob’s anger burns against Rachel, and he says, “Am I in stead of God who has withheld from you the fruit of the womb?”
3 라헬이 가로되 `나의 여종 빌하에게로 들어가라 그가 아들을 낳아 내 무릎에 두리니 그러면 나도 그를 인하여 자식을 얻겠노라' 하고
And she says, “Behold, my handmaid Bilhah, go in to her, and she bears on my knees, and I am built up, even I, from her”;
4 그 시녀 빌하를 남편에게 첩으로 주매 야곱이 그에게로 들어갔더니
and she gives Bilhah her maidservant to him for a wife, and Jacob goes in to her;
5 빌하가 잉태하여 야곱에게 아들을 낳은지라
and Bilhah conceives, and bears a son to Jacob,
6 라헬이 가로되 `하나님이 내 억울함을 푸시려고 내 소리를 들으사 내게 아들을 주셨다' 하고 이로 인하여 그 이름을 단이라 하였으며
and Rachel says, “God has decided for me, and has also listened to my voice, and gives a son to me”; therefore she has called his name Dan.
7 라헬의 시녀 빌하가 다시 잉태하여 둘째 아들을 야곱에게 낳으매
And Bilhah, Rachel’s maidservant, conceives again, and bears a second son to Jacob,
8 라헬이 가로되 `내가 형과 크게 경쟁하여 이기었다' 하고 그 이름을 납달리라 하였더라
and Rachel says, “With wrestlings of God I have wrestled with my sister, indeed, I have prevailed”; and she calls his name Napthali.
9 레아가 자기의 생산이 멈춤을 보고 그 시녀 실바를 취하여 야곱에게 주어 첩을 삼게 하였더니
And Leah sees that she has ceased from bearing, and she takes Zilpah her maidservant, and gives her to Jacob for a wife;
10 레아의 시녀 실바가 야곱에게 아들을 낳으매
and Zilpah, Leah’s maidservant, bears a son to Jacob,
11 레아가 가로되 `복되도다' 하고 그 이름을 갓이라 하였으며
and Leah says, “A troop is coming”; and she calls his name Gad.
12 레아의 시녀 실바가 둘째 아들을 야곱에게 낳으매
And Zilpah, Leah’s maidservant, bears a second son to Jacob,
13 레아가 가로되 `기쁘도다 모든 딸들이 나를 기쁜 자라 하리로다' 하고 그 이름을 아셀이라 하였더라
and Leah says, “Because of my happiness, for daughters have pronounced me blessed”; and she calls his name Asher.
14 맥추 때에 르우벤이 나가서 들에서 합환채를 얻어 어미 레아에게 드렸더니 라헬이 레아에게 이르되 `형의 아들의 합환채를 청구하노라'
And Reuben goes in the days of wheat-harvest, and finds love-apples in the field, and brings them to his mother Leah, and Rachel says to Leah, “Please give to me of the love-apples of your son.”
15 레아가 그에게 이르되 `네가 내 남편을 빼앗은 것이 작은 일이냐? 네가 내 아들의 합환채도 빼앗고자 하느냐?' 라헬이 가로되 `그러면 형의 아들의 합환채 대신에 오늘밤에 내 남편이 형과 동침하리라' 하리라
And she says to her, “Is your taking my husband a little thing, that you have also taken the love-apples of my son?” And Rachel says, “He therefore lies with you tonight, for your son’s love-apples.”
16 저물 때에 야곱이 들에서 돌아오매 레아가 나와서 그를 영접하며 이르되 `내게로 들어오라 내가 내 아들의 합환채로 당신을 샀노라' 그 밤에 야곱이 그와 동침하였더라
And Jacob comes in from the field at evening; and Leah goes to meet him and says, “You come in to me, for [in] hiring I have hired you with my son’s love-apples”; and he lies with her during that night.
17 하나님이 레아를 들으셨으므로 그가 잉태하여 다섯째 아들을 야곱에게 낳은지라
And God listens to Leah, and she conceives, and bears a son to Jacob, a fifth,
18 레아가 가로되 `내가 내 시녀를 남편에게 주었으므로 하나님이 내게 그 값을 주셨다' 하고 그 이름을 잇사갈이라 하였으며
and Leah says, “God has given my hire, because I have given my maidservant to my husband”; and she calls his name Issachar.
19 레아가 다시 잉태하여 여섯째 아들을 야곱에게 낳은지라
And Leah conceives again, and she bears a sixth son to Jacob,
20 레아가 가로되 `하나님이 네게 후한 선물을 주시도다 내가 남편에게 여섯 아들을 낳았으니 이제는 그가 나와 함께 거하리라' 하고 그 이름을 스불론이라 하였으며
and Leah says, “God has endowed me—a good dowry; this time my husband dwells with me, for I have borne six sons to him”; and she calls his name Zebulun;
21 그 후에 그가 딸을 낳고 그 이름을 디나라 하였더라
and afterward she has borne a daughter, and calls her name Dinah.
22 하나님이 라헬을 생각하신지라 하나님이 그를 들으시고 그 태를 여신고로
And God remembers Rachel, and God listens to her, and opens her womb,
23 그가 잉태하여 아들을 낳고 가로되 `하나님이 나의 부끄러움을 씻으셨다' 하고
and she conceives and bears a son, and says, “God has gathered up my reproach”;
24 그 이름을 요셉이라 하니 여호와는 다시 다른 아들을 내게 더하시기를 원하노라 함이었더라
and she calls his name Joseph, saying, “YHWH is adding to me another son.”
25 라헬이 요셉을 낳은 때에 야곱이 라반에게 이르되 `나를 보내어 내 고향 내 본토로 가게 하시되
And it comes to pass, when Rachel has borne Joseph, that Jacob says to Laban, “Send me away, and I go to my place, and to my land;
26 내가 외삼촌에게서 일하고 얻은 처자를 내게 주어 나로 가게 하소서 내가 외삼촌께 한 일은 외삼촌이 아시나이다'
give up my wives and my children, for whom I have served you, and I go; for you have known my service which I have served you.”
27 라반이 그에게 이르되 `여호와께서 너로 인하여 내게 복 주신줄을 내가 깨달았노니 네가 나를 사랑스럽게 여기거든 유하라'
And Laban says to him, “Now if I have found grace in your eyes—I have observed diligently that YHWH blesses me for your sake.”
28 또 가로되 `네 품삯을 정하라 내가 그것을 주리라'
He also says, “Define your hire to me, and I give.”
29 야곱이 그에게 이르되 `내가 어떻게 외삼촌을 섬겼는지, 어떻게 외삼촌의 짐승을 쳤는지 외삼촌이 아시나이다
And he says to him, “You have known that which I have served you [in], and that which your substance was with me;
30 내가 오기 전에는 외삼촌의 소유가 적더니 번성하여 떼를 이루었나이다 나의 공력을 따라 여호와께서 외삼촌에게 복을 주셨나이다 그러나 나는 어느 때에나 내 집을 세우리이까?'
for [it is] little which you have had at my appearance, and it breaks forth into a multitude, and YHWH blesses you at my coming; and now, when do I make, I also, for my own house?”
31 라반이 가로되 내가 무엇으로 네게 주랴 야곱이 가로되 외삼촌께서 아무 것도 내게 주실 것이 아니라 나를 위하여 이 일을 행하시면 내가 다시 외삼촌의 양떼를 먹이고 지키리이다
And he says, “What do I give to you?” And Jacob says, “You do not give me anything; if you do this thing for me, I turn back; I have delight; I watch your flock;
I pass through all your flock today to turn aside every speckled and spotted sheep from there, and every brown sheep among the lambs, and speckled and spotted among the goats—and it has been my hire;
and my righteousness has answered for me in the day to come, when it comes in for my hire before your face—everyone which is not speckled and spotted among [my] goats, and brown among [my] lambs—it is stolen with me.”
And Laban says, “Behold, O that it were according to your word”;
and he turns aside during that day the striped and the spotted male goats, and all the speckled and the spotted female goats, everyone that [has] white in it, and every brown one among the lambs, and he gives into the hand of his sons,
and sets a journey of three days between himself and Jacob; and Jacob is feeding the rest of the flock of Laban.
And Jacob takes to himself a rod of fresh poplar and almond and plane-tree, and peels in them white peelings, making bare the white that [is] on the rods,
and sets up the rods which he has peeled in the gutters in the watering troughs (where the flock comes to drink), in front of the flock, that they may conceive in their coming to drink;
and the flocks conceive at the rods, and the flock bears striped, speckled, and spotted ones.
And Jacob has parted the lambs, and he puts the face of the flock toward the striped, also all the brown in the flock of Laban, and he sets his own droves by themselves, and has not set them near Laban’s flock.
And it has come to pass, whenever the strong ones of the flock conceive, that Jacob sets the rods before the eyes of the flock in the gutters, to cause them to conceive by the rods,
and when the flock is feeble, he does not set [them]; and the feeble ones have been Laban’s, and the strong ones Jacob’s.
And the man increases very exceedingly, and has many flocks, and maidservants, and menservants, and camels, and donkeys.
