Olubereberye 29
1 Awo Yakobo ne yeeyongerayo mu lugendo lwe, n’atuuka mu nsi y’abantu b’ebuvanjuba.
Yakob toaa nʼakwantuo so kɔduruu apueeɛfoɔ asase so.
2 Bwe yatunula n’alaba oluzzi mu nnimiro, ng’ebisibo bisatu eby’endiga zigalamidde awo ku lwo, kubanga awo we zaanywesezebwanga. Ejjinja eryasaanikiranga ku mumwa gw’oluzzi olwo lyali ddene,
Asase no so baabi na ɔkɔhunuu abura bi a nnwankuo mmiɛnsa butubutu ho. Ɛfiri sɛ, saa abura no mu nsuo na wɔsa ma nnwan no nom. Na ɛboɔ kɛseɛ bi na ɛkata abura no so.
3 era ebisibo bwe byakuŋŋaananga, abasumba ne balyoka baliyiringisa okuliggya ku mumwa gw’oluzzi ne banywesa endiga; bwe zaamalanga ne balizzaako.
Ɛberɛ biara a nnwankuo no bɛboa wɔn ho ano wɔ hɔ no, nnwanhwɛfoɔ no pire ɛboɔ no firi abura no ano ma nnwan no nsuo nom. Sɛ nnwan no nom nsuo no wie a, na nnwanhwɛfoɔ no asane de ɛboɔ no akata abura no ano.
4 Awo Yakobo n’abuuza abasumba nti, “Abooluganda muva wa?” Ne bamuddamu nti, “Tuva Kalani.”
Yakob bisaa wɔn sɛ, “Anuanom, mofiri he na mobaa ha?” Wɔbuaa Yakob sɛ, “Yɛfiri Haran.”
5 Kwe kubabuuza nti, “Labbaani mutabani wa Nakoli mumumanyi?” Ne bamuddamu nti, “Tumumanyi.”
Yakob sane bisaa wɔn sɛ, “Monim Nahor nana Laban anaa?” Nnwanhwɛfoɔ no nso buaa no sɛ, “Aane, yɛnim no.”
6 N’abuuza nti, “Ali bulungi?” Ne baddamu nti, “Ali bulungi, era laba Laakeeri muwala we wuuli ajja n’endiga!”
Afei, Yakob bisaa wɔn sɛ, “Na ne ho te sɛn?” Wɔbuaa no sɛ, “Ne ho yɛ. Na ne babaa Rahel koraa na ɔne ne nnwan reba yi.”
7 N’abagamba nti, “Mulabe, obudde bukyali bwa ttuntu, ekiseera tekinnatuuka okukuŋŋaanya ensolo awamu, muzinywese mulyoke mugende muzirunde.”
Yakob kaa sɛ, “Monhwɛ. Owia no ano yɛ den dodo. Ɛberɛ a ɛsɛ sɛ wɔboaboa mmoa no ano nnuruiɛ. Momma wɔn nsuo nnom, na monka wɔn nkɔ wɔn adidibea.”
8 Bo kwe kumuddamu nti, “Ekyo tetusobola kukikola ng’ebisibo byonna tebinnakuŋŋaanyizibwa, nga n’ejjinja terinaggyibwa ku mumwa gw’oluzzi, olwo ne tunywesa endiga.”
Nnwanhwɛfoɔ no buaa Yakob sɛ, “Sɛ yɛmmoaboaa nnwan no nyinaa ano, na yɛmpiree ɛboɔ no mfirii abura no ano a, yɛrentumi mma wɔn nsuo nnom.”
9 Yakobo bwe yali akyayogera nabo, Laakeeri n’atuuka n’endiga za kitaawe. Kubanga ye yali azirunda.
Yakob gu so ne wɔn rekasa no ara na Rahel a ɔno nso yɛ odwanhwɛfoɔ no de nʼagya nnwan baa hɔ.
10 Yakobo bwe yalaba Laakeeri, muwala wa Labbaani, mwannyina nnyina, n’endiga za Labbaani, n’agenda n’ayiringisa ejjinja okuva ku mumwa gw’oluzzi n’anywesa endiga za Labbaani.
Ɛberɛ a Yakob hunuu ne maame nuabarima Laban babaa Rahel ne ne wɔfa Laban nnwan no, ɔkɔpiree ɛboɔ no firii abura no ano. Afei, wɔmaa nnwan no nsuo nomeeɛ.
11 Yakobo n’alyoka agwa Laakeeri mu kifuba, n’ayimusa eddoboozi n’akaaba.
Afei, Yakob fee Rahel ano, na ɔsuiɛ.
12 Yakobo n’alyoka ategeeza Laakeeri nti, waluganda ne kitaawe, era ye mutabani wa Lebbeeka. Laakeeri kwe kudduka n’ategeeza kitaawe.
Na Yakob aka akyerɛ Rahel sɛ, ɔno Yakob yɛ Rahel no agya busuani a ɔsane yɛ nʼagya Laban no nuabaa Rebeka babarima. Enti, Rahel tuu mmirika kɔka kyerɛɛ nʼagya.
13 Awo Labbaani bwe yawulira ebya Yakobo, mutabani wa mwannyina, n’adduka okumusisinkana, n’amugwa mu kifuba n’amulamusa bulungi, n’amutwala mu nnyumba ye. Yakobo n’ategeeza Labbaani byonna ebyaliwo.
Laban tee ne nuabaa Rebeka ba Yakob ho asɛm no, ɔyɛɛ ntɛm kɔhyiaa no. Laban yɛɛ no atuu, fee nʼano, de no baa ne fie, maa Yakob bɔɔ no nʼananteseɛ.
14 Labbaani n’agamba nti, “Mazima oli ggumba lyange, era nnyama ya mubiri gwange! N’abeera naye omwezi mulamba.”
Laban ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, nokorɛ ni, “woyɛ me busuani.” Na Yakob tenaa Laban nkyɛn bosome.
15 Awo Labbaani n’agamba Yakobo nti, “Olw’okubanga oli waluganda ky’onoova ompeerereza obwereere? Ntegeeza empeera yo bw’eneebanga.”
Ɛda koro bi, Laban ka kyerɛɛ Yakob sɛ, “Ɛwom sɛ woyɛ me busuani deɛ, nanso ɛno nkyerɛ sɛ, sɛ woyɛ adwuma ma me a ɛnsɛ sɛ metua wo ka. Kyerɛ me akatua a wopɛ na memfa mma wo.”
16 Labbaani yalina bawala be babiri; erinnya ly’omukulu nga ye Leeya ne ly’omuto nga ye Laakeeri.
Na Laban wɔ mmammaa baanu. Na ɔpanin no din de Lea ɛnna akumaa no nso de Rahel.
17 Leeya yali manafu, kyokka ye Laakeeri nga mulungi era nga w’amaanyi.
Na Lea aniwa aba yɛ fɛ, ɛnna Rahel yɛ ɔbaa fɛfɛ a nʼanim yɛ nyam yie.
18 Yakobo yayagala Laakeeri, era n’agamba Labbaani nti, “Nzija kukuweereza emyaka musanvu olwa muwala wo omuto Laakeeri.”
Na Yakob dɔ Rahel awadeɛ kwan so, enti ɔka kyerɛɛ Rahel agya Laban sɛ, “Sɛ wode wo babaa kumaa Rahel bɛma me aware a, anka me nso mɛsom wo mfeɛ nson.”
19 Labbaani kwe kumuddamu nti, “Kituufu okumuwa ggwe ne ssimuwa musajja mulala yenna. Beera nange.”
Laban kaa sɛ, “Mepene so! Ɛyɛ sɛ mede no bɛma wo aware mmom sene sɛ mede no bɛma obi foforɔ bi a mennim no. Enti, tena me nkyɛn.”
20 Bw’atyo Yakobo n’akolerera Laakeeri emyaka musanvu, naye ne giba ng’ennaku obunaku gy’ali kubanga yamwagala nnyo.
Esiane ɔdɔ a na Yakob dɔ Rahel enti, ɔsomm Laban mfeɛ nson, na wanhunu koraa sɛ, wasom akyɛre saa. Ɛyɛɛ no sɛ gyama ɔsomee nnansa bi pɛ.
21 Awo Yakobo n’agamba Labbaani nti, “Kale mpa mukazi wange, mmutwale, kubanga ekiseera kye twalagaana nkimazeeko.”
Yakob som wieeɛ no, ɔka kyerɛɛ Laban sɛ, “Masom awie enti, fa Rahel ma me na menware no.”
22 Labbaani kwe kukuŋŋaanya abantu b’ekifo ekyo, n’akola embaga.
Ɛno enti, Laban too ɛpono kɛseɛ, na ɔtoo nsa frɛɛ nnipa a na ɔne wɔn wɔ hɔ nyinaa baa apontoɔ no ase.
23 Naye mu kiro Labbaani n’atwala muwala we Leeya n’amuwa Yakobo okumutwala okuba mukazi we.
Na ɛduruu anadwo a esum aduru no, Laban de ne babaa Lea kɔmaa Yakob, maa ɔne no daeɛ.
24 Labbaani yali awadde Leeya Zirupa amuweerezenga.
Ɛno akyiri no, Laban de nʼafenawa Silpa kaa Lea ho sɛ ɔnkɔsom no.
25 Bwe bwakya, Yakobo n’alaba nga bamuwadde Leeya. Kwe kugamba Labbaani nti, “Onkoze ki kino? Saakuweereza lwa Laakeeri? Kale lwaki onimbye?”
Adeɛ kyeeɛ no, ɔhunuu sɛ Lea mmom na ɔda nʼakyi. Ɛnna Yakob bisaa Laban sɛ, “Asɛm bɛn na wo ne me adi yi? Ɛnyɛ Rahel enti na mesom wo? Adɛn enti na woadaadaa me sei?”
26 Labbaani n’amuddamu nti, “Mu nsi yaffe tekiri mu buwangwa bwaffe, omuto okusooka omukulu okufumbirwa.
Laban buaa Yakob sɛ, “Ɛha deɛ, ɛnyɛ yɛn amanneɛ sɛ yɛde ɔbabaa kumaa ma aware wɔ ɛberɛ a ɔpanin no nwareeɛ.
27 Sooka omale n’ono wiiki eno emu, n’oli tugenda kumukuwa; kyokka olimukolerera okumala emyaka emirala musanvu.”
Ma Lea nni nnawɔtwe wɔ wo nkyɛn, na nnawɔtwe no akyiri no, sɛ wopɛ Rahel ara a, mɛma woasane asom mfirinhyia nson bio, na mede no ama wo aware.”
28 Ekyo Yakobo n’akikkiriza, n’amalako wiiki emu eyo, Labbaani n’alyoka amuwa Laakeeri muwala we okuba mukazi we.
Yakob penee so ne Lea tenaa nnawɔtwe. Ɛno akyiri, ɔsomm mfeɛ nson ansa na Laban de ne babaa Rahel nso maa no wareeɛ.
29 Labbaani n’awa Laakeeri Biira amuweerezenga.
Laban de nʼafenawa Bilha nso maa ne babaa Rahel sɛ ɔnkɔsom no.
30 Yakobo n’atwala Laakeeri n’aba mukazi we; n’ayagala Laakeeri okusinga Leeya, n’aweereza Labbaani emyaka egyo emirala omusanvu.
Yakob de ne ho kaa Rahel nso. Na ɔdɔ Rahel sene Lea. Yakob tenaa Laban nkyɛn, somm no mfirinhyia nson bio sɛdeɛ ɔne no hyehyɛeɛ no.
31 Mukama bwe yalaba nga Leeya akyayibbwa n’aggula olubuto lwe. Laakeeri ye yali mugumba.
Awurade hunuu sɛ Yakob ani nnye Lea ho no, ɔbuee ne yafunu mu, nanso Rahel deɛ, na ɔnwo.
32 Leeya n’aba olubuto, n’azaala omwana wabulenzi. N’amutuuma erinnya Lewubeeni, ng’agamba nti, “Kubanga Mukama alabye okubonyaabonyezebwa kwange: ddala baze ananjagala.”
Lea nyinsɛneeɛ, woo ɔbabarima. Ɔtoo no edin Ruben a asekyerɛ ne “Awurade ahunu mmɔborɔ a meyɛ.” Na Lea kaa sɛ, “Awurade ahunu me mmɔbɔ. Nokorɛm, afei na me kunu ani bɛgye me ho.”
33 N’aba olubuto olulala, n’azaala omwana mulenzi, n’agamba nti, “Kubanga Mukama alabye nga ndi mukyawe, kyavudde ampa omwana owoobulenzi omulala; n’amutuuma erinnya Simyoni.”
Lea nyinsɛnee bio na ɔsane woo ɔbabarima bio no, ɔkaa sɛ, “Esiane sɛ Awurade hunuu sɛ me kunu ani nnye me ho enti, wasane akyɛ me ɔbabarima bio.” Enti, ɔtoo ne din Simeon a asekyerɛ ne “Awurade ate!”
34 Ate n’aba olubuto n’azaala omwana mulenzi, n’agamba nti, “Kale kaakano baze ajja kuba bumu nange, kubanga mmuzaalidde abaana abalenzi basatu.” Omwana kyeyava atuumwa Leevi.
Lea sane nyinsɛnee bio. Na ɔwoo ɔbabarima bio no, ɔkaa sɛ, “Afei deɛ, me kunu de ne ho bɛfam me ho, ɛfiri sɛ, mawo mmammarima baasa ama no.” Ɛno enti, ɔtoo no edin Lewi a asekyerɛ ne “Ahofam.”
35 Era Leeya n’aba olubuto n’azaala omwana wabulenzi, n’agamba nti, “Ku luno nzija kutendereza Mukama,” kyeyava amutuuma Yuda; n’alekayo okuzaala.
Lea sane nyinsɛnee. Ɛberɛ a ɔsane woo ɔbabarima bio no, ɔkaa sɛ, “Saa ɛberɛ yi deɛ, mɛkamfo Awurade.” Ɛno enti, ɔtoo no edin Yuda, a asekyerɛ ne “Nkamfoɔ.” Yei akyiri no, ɔhomee awoɔ so.
