1 Jacob el fahsr liki acn sac ac som tulanya facl sin mwet layen nu kutulap.
UJakhobe waseqhubeka ngohambo lwakhe wayafika elizweni labantu bempumalanga.
2 El fahsr nwe liyauk lufin kof se inimae ac u tolu ke sheep oan mongla siska. Mwet uh elos kite sheep natulos ke kof in luf se inge. Oasr eot tupasrpasr lulap se sang afin luf sac.
Wabona khonale umthombo esiqintini, kulemihlambi yezimvu emithathu ilele eduzane kwawo ngoba imihlambi yayinatha khonapho emthonjeni lowo. Ilitshe elalivale umlomo womthombo lalilikhulu.
3 Pacl se ma un sheep nukewa ac fahsreni uh, mwet karingin sheep inge ac epusla eot sac ac kiteya sheep natulos. Na toko elos fah sifil oakeang eot sac in afinya.
Kwakusithi yonke imihlambi ingabuthana khona, abelusi baligiqe ilitshe balisuse emlonyeni womthombo banathise izimvu. Besebelibuyisela ilitshe endaweni yalo emlonyeni womthombo.
4 Jacob el siyuk sin mwet liyaung sheep uh, “Kowos mwet ya?” Elos fahk, “Kut mwet Haran.”
UJakhobe wabuza abelusi wathi, “Bafowethu, livela ngaphi?” Baphendula bathi, “Sivela eHarani.”
5 El siyuk selos, “Ku kowos etal Laban, su ac ma natul Nahor?” Ac elos fahk, “Aok, kut etal.”
Wathi, “Liyamazi yini uLabhani, umzukulu kaNahori?” Baphendula bathi, “Yebo, siyamazi.”
6 Na el siyuk, “Ac el fuka?” Elos topuk, “El ku na. Ngetot liye, tulik mutan se natul pa pwen un sheep natul fahsru ingo. El pa Rachel.”
UJakhobe wasebabuza wathi, “Uyaphila yini?” Bathi, “Yebo, uyaphila; nansi indodakazi yakhe uRasheli esiza lezimvu.”
7 Jacob el fahk, “Liye, srakna infulwen len, soenna pacl in utukeni sheep uh. Kowos ku tia kiteya ke kof ac folokunulosla nu inima elos in mongo we?”
Wathi, “Khangelani, ilanga lilokhu lisemini; akukabi yisikhathi sokuthi imihlambi ibuthwe. Zinathiseni izimvu lezi lizibuyisele emadlelweni.”
8 Elos fahk, “Kut tia wi oru angan. Ac soaneyuk nwe ke na un sheep nukewa faseni, ac eot se inge ipisyukla, na kut fah sang kof nimalos.”
Baphendula bathi, “Asingeke, ize iqale iqoqane yonke imihlambi, ilitshe beselisuswa emlonyeni womthombo. Besesizinathisa-ke izimvu.”
9 Ke Jacob el srakna kaskas nu selos, Rachel el tuku wi un sheep nutin papa tumal ah.
Wathi elokhu esakhuluma labo uRasheli wafika lezimvu zikayise, kalokho wayengumelusi.
10 Ke Jacob el liyalak Rachel, el som nu ke lufin kof uh ac epusla eot sac, na sang kof nimen sheep natul Laban, su ma loun nina kial.
UJakhobe wathi ebona uRasheli indodakazi kaLabhani, umnewabo kanina esiza lezimvu zikaLabhani, wahamba wayagiqa ilitshe elalisemlonyeni womthombo wanathisa izimvu zikamalumakhe.
11 Na Jacob el ngok mutal Rachel, ac tung ke sripen engan lal.
UJakhobe wasesanga uRasheli njalo wakhala kakhulu.
12 El fahkang nu sel, “Nga wen natul Rebecca, sou lun papa tomom.” Na Rachel el yula ac fahkang nu sin papa tumal ah.
Wayesemtshelile uRasheli ukuthi wayeyisihlobo sikayise lokuthi wayeyindodana kaRabheka. Ngakho intombi yagijima yayabikela uyise.
13 Ac ke papa sac lohng pweng kacl Jacob, mukul se nutin ma loul, el kasrusr som in sonol. El sruokilya ac ngok mutal, na el usalla nu in lohm sel. Ke Jacob el srumunang nu sel Laban ma nukewa ma sikyak nu sel ah,
ULabhani wonela ukuwuzwa umbiko ngoJakhobe, indodana kadadewabo, wahle waphuthuma wayamhlangabeza. Wamgona, wamanga, wamletha ngekhaya, lapho uJakhobe amtshela khona izinto lezi.
14 Laban el fahk, “Pwaye na pwaye lah kut srah sefanna.” Na Jacob el muta yorol malem se.
ULabhani wasesithi kuye, “Uyinyama yami legazi lami.” UJakhobe esehlale laye okwenyanga yonke,
15 Laban el fahk nu sel Jacob, “Kut finne sou, kom fah tia orekma nu sik ke wangin molo. Nga ac akfalye nu sum fuka?”
uLabhani wathi kuye, “Kambe sekungathi ngoba uyisihlobo sami ubusungisebenzela ungaholi lutho? Akungitshele ukuthi umholo wakho ungaba yini?”
16 Oasr acn luo natul Laban — inen ma se ma matu ah pa Leah, ac ma se ma srik ah pa Rachel.
ULabhani wayelamadodakazi amabili; ibizo lendala lalinguLeya, encinyane inguRasheli.
17 Wo mutal Leah, tusruktu Rachel el arulana oasku ac wo pac lumahl.
ULeya wayelamehlo abuthakathaka, kodwa uRasheli wayelesimo esibukekayo, emuhle.
18 Jacob el arulana lungse Rachel, ac el fahk, “Nga ac orekma nu sum yac itkosr, kom fin usalu Rachel kiuk.”
UJakhobe wezwa emthanda uRasheli wasesithi, “Ngizakusebenzela okweminyaka eyisikhombisa ukuze ungiphe indodakazi yakho encane uRasheli.”
19 Laban el topuk, “Nga ac lungse eisalot nu sum liki na in eisalang nu sin kutena mwet saya. Tari, mutana yuruk.”
ULabhani wathi, “Kungcono ngimuphe wena kulokuba ngimuphe enye indoda. Hlala lapha lami.”
20 Jacob el orekma yac itkosr elan mau ku in eisal Rachel, ac ke sripen el lungse el yohk, yac itkosr sac oana in pacl na fototo se nu sel.
UJakhobe waseyisebenza iminyaka eyisikhombisa ukuze azuze uRasheli, kodwa yakhanya ingathi yizinsukwana ezimbalwa kuye ngenxa yothando kuye.
21 Na Jacob el fahk nu sel Laban, “Sun tari lusen pacl sac. Fuhlela nga in payukyak sin acn nutum.”
UJakhobe wasesithi kuLabhani, “Ngipha-ke umkami. Isikhathi sami sesigcwalisekile, sengifuna ukwembatha laye.”
22 Ouinge Laban el oru kufwen marut se ac suli mwet nukewa.
Ngakho uLabhani wasenxusa bonke abantu bendawo wenza idili.
23 Tusruktu in fong sac, el tia usal Rachel, a el eisalang Leah nu sel Jacob, ac Jacob el ona yorol. (
Kodwa kwathi sekusihlwa, wathatha indodakazi yakhe uLeya wamupha uJakhobe, uJakhobe wembatha laye.
24 Laban el eisalang Zilpah, mutan kulansap lal, nu sel Leah, acn natul, tuh elan mutan kulansap lal.)
ULabhani waphinda wapha uLeya incekukazi yakhe uZilipha ukuba ibe yincekukazi yakhe.
25 Jacob el tiana etu nwe ke lotutang tok ah lah Leah pa oan yorol ah. El som nu yorol Laban ac fahk, “Efu kom ku oru ange nu sik? Nga orekma kacl Rachel, na efu kom ku kiapweyula?”
Kwathi sokusile, wabona kunguLeya! UJakhobe wathi kuLabhani, “Kuyini lokhu okwenzileyo kimi? Mina ngasebenzela uRasheli, kakunjalo na? Kungani ungikhohlisile?”
26 Laban el fahk, “Ouiya lasr uh, kut tia ku in sang el su srik in payukyak meet liki el su matu.
ULabhani waphendula wathi, “Kakusiwo mkhuba wethu lapha ukwendisa indodakazi encane endala ingakendi.
27 Tupan in safla wik in akfulat lun marut uh, na nga fah eisalot Rachel nu sum, kom fin sifilpa orekma luk ke yac itkosr.”
Qeda iviki yokucola lo omdala; besesikupha lalo omncane njalo ngemva kokumsebenzela eminye iminyaka eyisikhombisa.”
28 Jacob el insese nu kac, ac ke safla wik in akfulat ke marut uh, Laban el eisalang Rachel, acn natul, tuh elan mutan pac kial. (
UJakhobe wenza njalo. Waqeda iviki eloLeya, uLabhani wasemupha indodakazi yakhe uRasheli ukuba ibe ngumkakhe.
29 Laban el eisalang Bilhah, mutan kulansap lal, nu sel Rachel, acn natul, tuh elan mutan kulansap lal.)
ULabhani wanika indodakazi yakhe uRasheli incekukazi yakhe uBhiliha ukuba abe yincekukazi yakhe.
30 Jacob el ona yorol Rachel pac, ac el lungse Rachel yohk lukel Leah. Ouinge el sifilpa orekma nu sel Laban ke yac itkosr pac.
UJakhobe waselala loRasheli, wamthanda ukwedlula uLeya. Wasesebenzela uLabhani okweminye iminyaka eyisikhombisa njalo.
31 Ke LEUM GOD El liye lah srik lungse lal Jacob nu sel Leah lukel Rachel, El oru tuh in oasr tulik natul Leah, a funu Rachel, wangin tulik natul.
UThixo wathi ngokubona ukuthi uLeya wayengathandwa, wavula inzalo yakhe, kodwa uRasheli wayeyinyumba.
32 Leah el pitutuyak ac oswela wen se. El fahk, “LEUM GOD El liye keok luk, ac inge mukul tumuk uh ac fah lungsela nga.” Ouinge el sang inen tulik sac Reuben.
ULeya wathatha isisu wazala indodana. Wamutha ibizo wathi nguRubheni, ngoba wathi, “Kungenxa yokuthi uThixo usebonile ukuhlupheka kwami. Ngempela umkami usezangithanda manje.”
33 El sifilpa pitutuyak ac oswela pac wen se. El fahk, “LEUM GOD El ase pac wen se inge nutik, mweyen El lohng lah srungayuk na nga.” Ke ma inge el sang inen tulik sac Simeon.
Wathatha isisu njalo, wathi esephinde umfana njalo wathi, “Ngoba uThixo wezwa ukuthi kangithandwa, wanginika lo njalo.” Ngakho wamutha wathi nguSimiyoni.
34 El sifilpa pitutuyak ac oswela pac wen se. Na el fahk, “Inge mukul tumuk uh ac arulana kupasrme nu sik liki na meet ah, mweyen nga osweang wen tolu nu sel.” Ke ma inge el sang inen wen sac Levi.
Wasithatha njalo isisu, kwathi esezele omunye umfana wathi, “Khathesi-ke umkami usezabambelela kimi ngoba sengimzalele amadodana amathathu.” Yikho wathiwa nguLevi.
35 Toko el sifilpa pitutuyak ac oswela wen se. Ac el fahk, “Inge nga fah kaksakin LEUM GOD.” Ouinge el sang inen wen sac Judah. Na wotyak isus lal uh.
Waphinda wasithatha isisu, wazuza umfana wathi, “Ngalesisikhathi ngizadumisa uThixo.” Wamutha wathi nguJuda. Wasesima ukuzuza abantwana.
