< UGenesisi 29 >

1 UJakhobe waseqhubeka ngohambo lwakhe wayafika elizweni labantu bempumalanga.
Niongake am-pandia amy zao t’Ia­kòbe nimb’ an-tane’ o anan-tatiñanañeo.
2 Wabona khonale umthombo esiqintini, kulemihlambi yezimvu emithathu ilele eduzane kwawo ngoba imihlambi yayinatha khonapho emthonjeni lowo. Ilitshe elalivale umlomo womthombo lalilikhulu.
Tinalake’e te heheke ty vovoñe an-kivoke ey aman’ añondry telo troke mandre marine aze, amy te fampinomañe o mpirai-liao i vovoñey; le vato jabajaba ty nikapeke i vovoñey.
3 Kwakusithi yonke imihlambi ingabuthana khona, abelusi baligiqe ilitshe balisuse emlonyeni womthombo banathise izimvu. Besebelibuyisela ilitshe endaweni yalo emlonyeni womthombo.
Ie hene vory o mpirai-liao le adariso’ o mpiarakeo i vato fikape’ i vovoñeiy, vaho ampinomeñe o añondrio; heneke izay vaho ampolie’ iareo am-bava’ i vovoñey i vatoy.
4 UJakhobe wabuza abelusi wathi, “Bafowethu, livela ngaphi?” Baphendula bathi, “Sivela eHarani.”
Hoe t’Iakòbe am’iereo, O rahalahikoo, boak’ aia nahareo? Hoe iereo, Hirik’e Kharane añe.
5 Wathi, “Liyamazi yini uLabhani, umzukulu kaNahori?” Baphendula bathi, “Yebo, siyamazi.”
Hoe re tam’ iereo, Fohi’ areo hao t’i Labàne ana’ i Nakore? Hoe iereo, Eka apota’ay.
6 UJakhobe wasebabuza wathi, “Uyaphila yini?” Bathi, “Yebo, uyaphila; nansi indodakazi yakhe uRasheli esiza lezimvu.”
Hoe re tam’iereo, Jangam-bao? Janga, hoe iereo, le ingo t’i Rahkele, anak’ ampela’e minday o añondrio.
7 Wathi, “Khangelani, ilanga lilokhu lisemini; akukabi yisikhathi sokuthi imihlambi ibuthwe. Zinathiseni izimvu lezi lizibuyisele emadlelweni.”
Hoe re, Hehe, mbe tsingilingilieñe ty àndro, tsy fanontoñañe añondry hey henaneo. Ampinomo o añondrio vaho akia andrazo.
8 Baphendula bathi, “Asingeke, ize iqale iqoqane yonke imihlambi, ilitshe beselisuswa emlonyeni womthombo. Besesizinathisa-ke izimvu.”
Fa hoe ka iereo, Tsy mete zahay naho tsy fa vory iaby o mpirai-liao naho avarimbari’ iareo boak’ am-bava’ o vovoñeo o vatoo; izay vaho ampinome’ay o añondrio.
9 Wathi elokhu esakhuluma labo uRasheli wafika lezimvu zikayise, kalokho wayengumelusi.
Ie mbe nifanaontsy, pok’ eo t’i Rahkele ninday o añondrin-drae’eo, amy t’ie mpiarake.
10 UJakhobe wathi ebona uRasheli indodakazi kaLabhani, umnewabo kanina esiza lezimvu zikaLabhani, wahamba wayagiqa ilitshe elalisemlonyeni womthombo wanathisa izimvu zikamalumakhe.
Ie nahaoniñe i Rahkele, ana’ i Labàne renelahi’e, naho o añondri’ i Labàne rene­lahi’eo t’Iakòbe le niharinea’e naho navari’e boak’ am-bava’ i vovoñey i vatoy vaho nampinome’e i lia-rai’ i Labàne renelahi’eoy.
11 UJakhobe wasesanga uRasheli njalo wakhala kakhulu.
Le norofa’ Ia­kòbe t’i Rahkele vaho nipoña-peo an-drovetse,
12 Wayesemtshelile uRasheli ukuthi wayeyisihlobo sikayise lokuthi wayeyindodana kaRabheka. Ngakho intombi yagijima yayabikela uyise.
naho nitoñone’ Iakòbe amy Rahkele t’ie longon-drae’e naho ana’ i Ribkae; le nilay re hitalily aman-drae’e.
13 ULabhani wonela ukuwuzwa umbiko ngoJakhobe, indodana kadadewabo, wahle waphuthuma wayamhlangabeza. Wamgona, wamanga, wamletha ngekhaya, lapho uJakhobe amtshela khona izinto lezi.
Ie jinanji’ i Labàne ty talili’ Iakòbe ana-drahavave’e, le nihitrihitry hifañaoñe ama’e; finorokoko’e naho norofa’e vaho nendese’e mb’ añ’ an­jom­ba’e ao vaho hene natalili’e amy Labàne i nife­tsake rezay,
14 ULabhani wasesithi kuye, “Uyinyama yami legazi lami.” UJakhobe esehlale laye okwenyanga yonke,
le hoe t’i Labàne ama’e, Toe taolako naho nofoko irehe! Aa le niam­be­sara’e volañe raike.
15 uLabhani wathi kuye, “Kambe sekungathi ngoba uyisihlobo sami ubusungisebenzela ungaholi lutho? Akungitshele ukuthi umholo wakho ungaba yini?”
Le hoe t’i Labàne am’ Iakòbe, Aa ndra t’ie longoko, hifanehake ho ahy tsy aman-tambe hao? Volaño arè, ino ty ho tambe’o.
16 ULabhani wayelamadodakazi amabili; ibizo lendala lalinguLeya, encinyane inguRasheli.
Ie amy zao, roe ty anak’ ampela’ i Labàne; Leae ty añara’ ty zoke’e naho i Rahkele ty añaran-jai’e.
17 ULeya wayelamehlo abuthakathaka, kodwa uRasheli wayelesimo esibukekayo, emuhle.
Naleme ty maso’ i Leae, le nimontramontra naho soa vintañe t’i Rahkele.
18 UJakhobe wezwa emthanda uRasheli wasesithi, “Ngizakusebenzela okweminyaka eyisikhombisa ukuze ungiphe indodakazi yakho encane uRasheli.”
Nikokoa’ Iakòbe t’i Rahkele, le hoe re, Ho toroñeko fito taon-drehe ho a i Rahkele, anak’ ampela’o zai’e.
19 ULabhani wathi, “Kungcono ngimuphe wena kulokuba ngimuphe enye indoda. Hlala lapha lami.”
Hoe t’i Labàne, Hamake hato­loko azo ta te hatoloko amy ze ondaty ila’e; mimoneña amako.
20 UJakhobe waseyisebenza iminyaka eyisikhombisa ukuze azuze uRasheli, kodwa yakhanya ingathi yizinsukwana ezimbalwa kuye ngenxa yothando kuye.
Aa le nito­roñe fito taoñe t’Iakòbe haha­zoa’e i Rahkele, le nihoe andro tsy ampe-ampe am-pihaino’eo ty amy fikokoa’e azey.
21 UJakhobe wasesithi kuLabhani, “Ngipha-ke umkami. Isikhathi sami sesigcwalisekile, sengifuna ukwembatha laye.”
Le hoe t’Iakòbe amy Labàne, Ato­loro ahy i valikoy hiharoako fa heneke o androkoo.
22 Ngakho uLabhani wasenxusa bonke abantu bendawo wenza idili.
Aa le natonto’ i Labàne ze hene ondati’ i tanañey vaho nañalankañe takataka.
23 Kodwa kwathi sekusihlwa, wathatha indodakazi yakhe uLeya wamupha uJakhobe, uJakhobe wembatha laye.
Ie hariva i àndroy le nasese’ i Labàne am’Iakòbe t’i Leae vaho niolore’e.
24 ULabhani waphinda wapha uLeya incekukazi yakhe uZilipha ukuba ibe yincekukazi yakhe.
Le natolo’ i Labàne amy Leae ty mpitoro-ampela’e Zilpae ho mpiatrak’ aze.
25 Kwathi sokusile, wabona kunguLeya! UJakhobe wathi kuLabhani, “Kuyini lokhu okwenzileyo kimi? Mina ngasebenzela uRasheli, kakunjalo na? Kungani ungikhohlisile?”
Aa ie nanjirike ty hamaray, hehe te i Leae! le hoe t’Iakòbe amy Labàne: Ino o nanoe’o amakoo? Tsy i Rahkele hao ty nitoroñako azo? Akore arè ty namitaha’o ahy?
26 ULabhani waphendula wathi, “Kakusiwo mkhuba wethu lapha ukwendisa indodakazi encane endala ingakendi.
Hoe t’i Labàne, Tsy sata an-tane atoy ty anolorañe ty zai’e aolo’ ty tañoloñoloñan-ampela’e.
27 Qeda iviki yokucola lo omdala; besesikupha lalo omncane njalo ngemva kokumsebenzela eminye iminyaka eyisikhombisa.”
Foniro i hafitoa’ey, le hatolo’ay azo ka i raikey, ho ami’ty fito taoñe tovo’e hitoroña’o ahy.
28 UJakhobe wenza njalo. Waqeda iviki eloLeya, uLabhani wasemupha indodakazi yakhe uRasheli ukuba ibe ngumkakhe.
Aa le nanoe’ Iakòbe. Nihenefe’e i hereñandroy, vaho natolo’e aze ty anak’ampela’e Rahkele ho vali’e.
29 ULabhani wanika indodakazi yakhe uRasheli incekukazi yakhe uBhiliha ukuba abe yincekukazi yakhe.
Natolo’ i Labàne amy Rahkele ana’e t’i Bilhae mpiatra’ey ho mpiatrak’ aze.
30 UJakhobe waselala loRasheli, wamthanda ukwedlula uLeya. Wasesebenzela uLabhani okweminye iminyaka eyisikhombisa njalo.
Niolotse amy Rahkele ka t’Iakòbe le ie ty nikokoa’e te amy Leae, vaho nitoroñe i Labàne fito taoñe indraike.
31 UThixo wathi ngokubona ukuthi uLeya wayengathandwa, wavula inzalo yakhe, kodwa uRasheli wayeyinyumba.
Ie nivazoho’ Iehovà te tsy nikokoañe t’i Leae, le sinoka’e ty trañon’ ana’e, fe betsiterake t’i Rahkele.
32 ULeya wathatha isisu wazala indodana. Wamutha ibizo wathi nguRubheni, ngoba wathi, “Kungenxa yokuthi uThixo usebonile ukuhlupheka kwami. Ngempela umkami usezangithanda manje.”
Niareñe t’i Leae vaho nahatoly ana-dahy. Natao’e Reòbene ty añara’e fa hoe ty asa’e, amy te nivazoho’ Iehovà ty haferenaiñako. Aa le hikoko ahy ty valiko henanekeo.
33 Wathatha isisu njalo, wathi esephinde umfana njalo wathi, “Ngoba uThixo wezwa ukuthi kangithandwa, wanginika lo njalo.” Ngakho wamutha wathi nguSimiyoni.
Niareñe indraike re nisamak’ ana-dahy, vaho hoe re, Jinanji’ Iehovà t’ie firihia’e le nomei’e itoañe ka, le natao’e Simòne ty añara’e.
34 Wasithatha njalo isisu, kwathi esezele omunye umfana wathi, “Khathesi-ke umkami usezabambelela kimi ngoba sengimzalele amadodana amathathu.” Yikho wathiwa nguLevi.
Mbe niareñe indraike re, nahatoly ana-dahy, le hoe ty asa’e, Sandrake henane zao te hipiteham-baliko, izaho nisamake telo ho aze. Aa le natao’e Levy ty añara’e.
35 Waphinda wasithatha isisu, wazuza umfana wathi, “Ngalesisikhathi ngizadumisa uThixo.” Wamutha wathi nguJuda. Wasesima ukuzuza abantwana.
Mbe niareñe indraike re, le nisamak’ ana-dahy vaho nanao ty hoe, Handrenge Iehovà Iraho henane zao. Le natao’e Iehodà ty ­añara’e vaho nitampets’ anake.
