Genesisy 30

1 Ary rehefa hitan-dRahely fa tsy mba niteraka tamin’ i Jakoba izy, dia nialona ny rahavaviny izy, ka hoy izy tamin’ i Jakoba: Mba omeo zaza aho, fa raha tsy izany, dia ho faty aho.

And Rachel having perceived that she bore Jacob no children, was jealous of her sister; and said to Jacob, Give me children; and if not, I shall die.

2 Dia nirehitra tamin-dRahely ny fahatezeran’ i Jakoba, ka hoy izy: Solon’ Andriamanitra, Izay nahamomba anao tsy hiteraka, va aho?

And Jacob was angry with Rachel, and said to her, Am I in the place of God, who has deprived thee of the fruit of the womb?

3 Ary hoy izy: Indro Bila ankizivaviko, vadio izy; dia hiteraka eo am-pofoako izy, mba hahazoako zaza aminy.

And Rachel said to Jacob, Behold my handmaid Balla, go in to her, and she shall bear upon my knees, and I also shall have children by her.

4 Dia nomeny azy Bila ankizivaviny ho vadiny; ary dia novadin’ i Jakoba koa izy.

And she gave him Balla her maid, for a wife to him; and Jacob went in to her.

5 Dia nanan’ anaka Bila ka niteraka zazalahy tamin’ i Jakoba.

And Balla, Rachel's maid, conceived, and bore Jacob a son.

6 Ary hoy Rahely: Andriamanitra efa nanome ahy ny rariny sady efa nihaino ny feoko, ka nomeny zazalahy aho; izany no nanaovany ny anarany hoe Dana.

And Rachel said, God has given judgment for me, and hearkened to my voice, and has given me a son; therefore she called his name, Dan.

7 Dia nanan’ anaka indray Bila, ankizivavin-Rahely, ka niteraka zazalahy faharoany tamin’ i Jakoba.

And Balla, Rachel's maid, conceived yet again, and bore a second son to Jacob.

8 Ary hoy Rahely: Fitolomana mafy dia mafy no nitolomako tamin’ ny rahavaviko, ka nahery aho; dia nataony hoe Naftaly ny anarany.

And Rachel said, God has helped me, and I contended with my sister and prevailed; and she called his name, Nephthalim.

9 Ary rehefa hitan’ i Lea fa efa nitsaha-jaza izy, dia naka an’ i Zilpa ankizivaviny izy, ka nomeny ho vadin’ i Jakoba koa.

And Lea saw that she ceased from bearing, and she took Zelpha her maid, and gave her to Jacob for a wife; and he went in to her.

10 Ary Zilpa, ankizivavin’ i Lea, dia niteraka zazalahy tamin’ i Jakoba.

And Zelpha the maid of Lea conceived, and bore Jacob a son.

11 Ary hoy Lea: Manan-jara re aho! dia nataony hoe Gada ny anarany.

And Lea said, [It is] happily: and she called his name, Gad.

12 Ary Zilpa, ankizivavin’ i Lea, dia niteraka zazalahy faharoany tamin’ i Jakoba.

And Zelpha the maid of Lea conceived yet again, and bore Jacob a second son.

13 Ary hoy Lea: Sambatra aho, fa hataon’ ny zanakavavin’ ny olona hoe sambatra aho; dia nataony hoe Asera ny anarany.

And Lea said, I am blessed, for the women will pronounce me blessed; and she called his name, Aser.

14 Ary nivoaka nitsangantsangana Robena tamin’ ny andro fijinjam-bary ka nahita dodaima naniry tany an-tsaha, dia nitondra azy ho any amin’ i Lea reniny. Ary hoy Rahely tamin’ i Lea: Veloma ianao, mba anomezo ahy kely ny dodaiman’ ny zanakao.

And Ruben went in the day of barley-harvest, and found apples of mandrakes in the field, and brought them to his mother Lea; and Rachel said to Lea her sister, Give me of thy son's mandrakes.

15 Ary hoy izy taminy: Moa zavatra kely va ny nakanao ny vadiko? Dia halainao koa va ny dodaiman’ ny zanako? Ary hoy Rahely: Aoka handry aminao ihany ary izy anio alina noho ny dodaiman’ ny zanakao.

And Lea said, [Is it] not enough for thee that thou hast taken my husband, wilt thou also take my son's mandrakes? And Rachel said, Not so: let him lie with thee to-night for thy son's mandrakes.

16 Ary nony hariva, rehefa tonga avy tany an-tsaha Jakoba, dia nivoaka nitsena azy Lea ka nanao hoe: Ho ato amiko no halehanao; fa ny dodaiman’ ny zanako no efa nakaramako anao tokoa. Dia nandry taminy izy tamin’ iny alina iny.

And Jacob came in out of the field at even; and Lea went forth to meet him, and said, Thou shalt come in to me this day, for I have hired thee for my son's mandrakes; and he lay with her that night.

17 Ary Andriamanitra nihaino an’ i Lea, dia nanan’ anaka izy ka niteraka zazalahy fahadiminy tamin’ i Jakoba.

And God hearkened to Lea, and she conceived, and bore Jacob a fifth son.

18 Ary hoy Lea: Efa nomen’ Andriamanitra ny karamako, satria nomeko hovadin’ ny vadiko ny ankizivaviko; dia nataony hoe Isakara ny anarany.

And Lea said, God has given me my reward, because I gave my maid to my husband; and she called his name Issachar, which is, Reward.

19 Dia nanan’ anaka indray Lea ka niteraka zazalahy faheniny tamin’ i Jakoba.

And Lea conceived again, and bore Jacob a sixth son.

20 Ary hoy Lea: Efa nanome anjara soa ho ahy Andriamanitra; amin’ izao vao hitoetra amiko ny vadiko, fa efa niteraka zaza enin-dahy ho azy aho; dia nataony hoe Zebolona ny anarany.

And Lea said, God has given me a good gift in this time; my husband will choose me, for I have born him six sons: and she called his name, Zabulon.

21 Ary rehefa afaka izany, dia niteraka zazavavy izy, ka nataony hoe Dina ny anarany.

And after this she bore a daughter; and she called her name, Dina.

22 Ary Andriamanitra nahatsiaro an-dRahely, dia nihaino azy ka nampanan’ anaka azy.

And God remembered Rachel, and God hearkened to her, and he opened her womb.

23 Ary nanan’ anaka izy ka niteraka zazalahy; dia hoy izy: Efa nahafa-tondromaso ahy Andriamanitra.

And she conceived, and bore Jacob a son; and Rachel said, God has taken away my reproach.

24 Dia nataony hoe Josefa ny anarany, ka hoy izy: Jehovah anie mbola hanampy zazalahy iray ho ahy koa.

And she called his name Joseph, saying, Let God add to me another son.

25 Ary rehefa niteraka an’ i Josefa Rahely, dia hoy Jakoba tamin’ i Labana: Alefaso aho hankany amin’ ny fonenako sy ny taniko.

And it came to pass when Rachel had born Joseph, Jacob said to Laban, Send me away, that I may go to my place and to my land.

26 Omeo ahy ny vadiko aman-janako, izay nanompoako anao, dia handeha aho; fa fantatrao ny fanompoana izay nanompoako anao.

Restore my wives and my children, for whom I have served thee, that I may depart, for thou knowest the service wherewith I have served thee.

27 Ary hoy Labana taminy: Masìna ianao, raha nahita fitia eo imasonao aho, mitoera eto amiko, efa namantatra aho, ka fantatro fa avy taminao no nitahian’ i Jehovah ahy.

And Laban said to him, If I have found grace in thy sight, I would augur [well], for the Lord has blessed me at thy coming in.

28 Ary hoy koa izy: Tonony izay ho karamanao, dia homeko anao.

Appoint me thy wages, and I will give [them].

29 Ary hoy Jakoba taminy; Fantatrao ny nanompoako anao sy ny toetry ny omby aman’ ondrinao tato amiko.

And Jacob said, Thou knowest in what things I have served thee, and how many cattle of thine are with me.

30 Fa kely ny fanananao, fony tsy mbola tonga aho, fa efa nitombo be dia be izy; ary efa nitahy anao Jehovah tamin’ ny diako rehetra; ary ankehitriny, rahoviana kosa aho no mba hihary ho an’ ny ao an-tranoko?

For it was little thou hadst before my time, and it is increased to a multitude, and the Lord God has blessed thee since my coming; now then, when shall I set up also my own house?

31 Ary hoy izy: Inona ary no homeko anao? Ary hoy Jakoba: Tsy hanome ahy na inona na inona ianao; raha hataonao amiko izao zavatra izao, dia mbola handrasako sy hotandremako ihany ny ondry aman’ osinao:

And Laban said to him, What shall I give thee? and Jacob said to him, Thou shalt not give me anything; if thou wilt do this thing for me, I will again tend thy flocks and keep them.

32 Handeha hitety ny ondry aman’ osinao rehetra aho anio ka hanavaka ny mara sy ny sada rehetra, ary ny mainty rehetra eo amin’ ny ondry ary ny sada sy ny mara eo amin’ ny osy; koa ireny no ho karamako.

Let all thy sheep pass by to-day, and separate thence every grey sheep among the rams, and every one that is speckled and spotted among the goats—[this] shall be my reward.

33 Ny fahamarinako no ho vavolombeloko amin’ ny andro ho avy, raha tonga ianao handinika ny karamako: izay rehetra tsy mara ary tsy sada eo amin’ ny osy, ary izay tsy mainty eo amin’ ny ondry, dia ho halatro izany.

And my righteousness shall answer for me on the morrow, for it is my reward before thee: whatever shall not be spotted and speckled among the goats, and grey among the rams, shall be stolen with me.

34 Ary hoy Labana: Eny, aoka ho araka ny teninao ary.

And Laban said to him, Let it be according to thy word.

35 Dia navahany tamin’ izany andro izany ny osilahy sadika sy sada, ary izay osivavy rehetra mara sy sada, dia izay rehetra nisy fotsy, ary ny mainty rehetra teo amin’ ny ondry; dia natolony teo an-tanan’ ny zananilahy ireny.

And he separated in that day the spotted and speckled he-goats, and all the spotted and speckled she-goats, and all that was grey among the rams, and every one that was white among them, and he gave them into the hand of his sons.

36 Ary nasiany lalan-kateloana teo anelanelan’ izy sy Jakoba; ary Jakoba niandry ny ondry aman’ osin’ i Labana sisa.

And he set a distance of a three days' journey between them and Jacob. And Jacob tended the cattle of Laban that were left behind.

37 Ary Jakoba dia naka tsorakazo maro tamin’ ny hazo popola maitso sy tamin’ ny hazo lozy sy tamin’ ny hazo platana; ka nataony ofy vandana ireny hisehoan’ ny fotsy izay teo amin’ ny tsorakazo.

And Jacob took to himself green rods of storax tree and walnut and plane-tree; and Jacob peeled in them white stripes; and as he drew off the green, the white stripe which he had made appeared alternate on the rods.

38 Ary ireny tsorakazo voaofiny ireny dia napetrany teo anoloan’ ny ondry aman’ osy, teo anatin’ ny tavin-drano, dia teo amin’ ny fisotroan-drano, izay nalehan’ ny ondry aman’ osy hisotro, ka nikambana teo ny lahy sy ny vavy, raha avy hisotro rano izy.

And he laid the rods which he had peeled, in the hollows of the watering-troughs, that whensoever the cattle should come to drink, as they should have come to drink before the rods, the cattle might conceive at the rods.

39 Dia nikambana tandrifin’ ny tsorakazo ny ondry aman’ osy ka niteraka sadika sy mara ary sada.

So the cattle conceived at the rods, and the cattle brought forth [young] speckled, and streaked and spotted with ash-coloured [spots].

40 Ary ny zanak’ ondry navahan’ i Jakoba, ary ny ondry sisa dia nataony manatrika ny sadika sy ny mainty rehetra teo amin’ ny ondry aman’ osin’ i Labana; ary natokany izay ondry aman’ osy ho azy ka tsy navelany hiharo tamin’ ny ondry aman’ osin’ i Labana.

And Jacob separated the lambs, and set before the sheep a speckled ram, and every variegated one among the lambs, and he separated flocks for himself alone, and did not mingle them with the sheep of Laban.

41 Ary na oviana na oviana no hikambanan’ ny ondry aman’ osy matanjaka, dia napetrak’ i Jakoba teo anatin’ ny tavin-drano teo anoloan’ ny mason’ ny ondry aman’ osy ireny tsorakazo ireny, mba hikambanany eo anilan’ ny tsorakazo.

And it came to pass in the time wherein the cattle became pregnant, conceiving in the belly, Jacob put the rods before the cattle in the troughs, that they might conceive by the rods.

42 Fa raha osaosa kosa ny ondry aman’ osy, dia tsy mba napetrany teo ireny; ka dia ny osaosa no an’ i Labana, fa ny matanjaka kosa no an’ i Jakoba.

But he did not put them in [indiscriminately] whenever the cattle happened to bring forth, but the unmarked ones were Laban's, and the marked ones were Jacob's.

43 Dia nitombo harena indrindra ralehilahy ka nanana ondry aman’ osy betsaka ary andevovavy sy andevolahy ary rameva sy boriky.

And the man became very rich, and he had many cattle, and oxen, and servants, and maid-servants, and camels, and asses.
