UGenesisi 30
1 Kwathi uRasheli esebonile ukuthi wayengamzaleli uJakobe, uRasheli waba lomona ngodadewabo, wathi kuJakobe: Nginika abantwana, kodwa nxa kungenjalo ngife.
Te Rahel nda feꞌe bꞌonggi sa. Naa de, ana horo-mbala aꞌa na. De ana olaꞌ no sao na nae, “Aꞌa! Fee au anaꞌ dei! Mete ma hokoꞌ, malole lenaꞌ, au mateꞌ a.”
2 Ngakho lwavutha ulaka lukaJakobe kuRasheli, wathi: Ngisesikhundleni sikaNkulunkulu okwenqabele isithelo sesizalo yini?
Boe ma, Yakob bua e nae, “Ho mae au ia, Lamatualain, fo bisa fee ho anaꞌ, do?”
3 Wasesithi: Khangela, incekukazi yami uBiliha, ngena kuye, ukuze azalele emadolweni ami, ukuze lami ngakhiwe kuye.
Rahel olaꞌ nae, “Taꞌo ia! Malole lenaꞌ, aꞌa haꞌi mala ate ngga Bilha. Muu sungguꞌ mo e, fo ana bꞌonggi fee au anaꞌ.”
4 Wasemnika uBiliha incekukazi yakhe abe ngumkakhe; uJakobe wasengena kuye.
Boe ma, ana fee Bilha neu Yakob, de ana sungguꞌ no e.
5 UBiliha wasethatha isisu, wamzalela uJakobe indodana.
Bilha o nairu boe, de bꞌonggi ana touꞌ esa.
6 URasheli wasesithi: UNkulunkulu ungahlulele, njalo uzwile ilizwi lami, wanginika indodana. Ngakho wayitha ibizo layo uDani.
Rahel olaꞌ nae, “Lamatualain rena au hule-oꞌe ngga. Naa de, Ana fee au ana touꞌ esa. Ana naꞌetuꞌ au dedꞌea ngga no ndoo-tetuꞌ.” Rahel babꞌae anaꞌ naa, Dan (sosoa na ‘neꞌetuꞌ dedꞌeat’).
7 UBiliha incekukazi kaRasheli wasebuya ethatha isisu, wamzalela uJakobe indodana yesibili.
Basa ma, Bilha nairu seluꞌ, de bꞌonggi ana touꞌ esa fai.
8 URasheli wasesithi: Ngibindene lokubindana okulamandla lodadewethu, njalo ngehlula; ngakho wayitha ibizo layo uNafithali.
Rahel olaꞌ nae, “Au ukusosoek o aꞌa ngga ena, ma au uꞌsenggiꞌ e.” Naa de, ana babꞌae anaꞌ naa, Naftali (sosoa na ‘esa nda nau kala saꞌ boe’).
9 Kwathi uLeya esebonile ukuthi usemi ukuzala, wathatha uZilipa incekukazi yakhe, wamnika uJakobe abe ngumkakhe.
Lea duꞌa nae eni nda bꞌonggi sa ena ma, ana fee Yakob sao nala ate na Silpa.
10 UZilipa incekukazi kaLeya wasemzalela uJakobe indodana.
Boe ma Silpa bꞌonggi ana touꞌ esa.
11 ULeya wasesithi: Kuyeza inhlanhla. Wayitha ibizo layo uGadi.
Lea olaꞌ nae, “Au uanale ngga, malole ena.” Naa de, ana babꞌae anaꞌ naa, Gad (sosoa na ‘uanale maloleꞌ’).
12 UZilipa incekukazi kaLeya wasemzalela uJakobe indodana yesibili.
Basa ma, Silpa bꞌonggi ana touꞌ esa fai.
13 ULeya wasesithi: Kungokwentokozo yami, ngoba amadodakazi azakuthi ngilentokozo. Wayitha ibizo layo uAsheri.
Lea olaꞌ nae, “Weh! Ia naa, au feꞌe umuhoꞌo na! Mete te, basa inaꞌ ra olaꞌ-olaꞌ rae, au onton seli.” Naa de, ana babꞌae anaꞌ naa, Aser (sosoa na ‘nemehoꞌo’).
14 URubeni wasehamba ngensuku zokuvuna ingqoloyi, wafica amamandrake ensimini, wawaletha kuLeya unina. URasheli wasesithi kuLeya: Ake ungiphe emamandrakeni endodana yakho.
Lao esa, nandaa no fai etu-oru are ma, Ruben lao lasi neu, de nita hau modꞌo sa bisa tao atahori hambu anaꞌ. De ana nendi fee ina na Lea. Rahel nita taꞌo naa ma, ana noꞌe Lea nae, “Aꞌa e! Fee au modꞌo fo Ruben nendiꞌ a mbei dei.”
15 Wasesithi kuye. Kuyinto encinyane yini ukuthi uthethe indoda yami? Usuzathatha lamamandrake endodana yami yini? URasheli wasesithi: Ngakho uzalala lawe ngalobubusuku ngenxa yamamandrake endodana yakho.
Te Lea nataa nae, “We! Ho ia, manaseliꞌ! Rambas mala au sao ngga. Ia ma, ho mae rambas mala modꞌo naa mia au ana ngga fai, do? Ho, nda mo mamaem sa!” Te Rahel olaꞌ nae, “Taꞌo ia, aꞌa. Mete ma au hambu modꞌo na, tetembaꞌ ia, muu sungguꞌ mo Ako.” Ma Lea nau boe.
16 Kwathi uJakobe esebuya evela emasimini kusihlwa, uLeya waphuma ukumhlangabeza, wathi: Kimi uzangena, ngoba ukukuqhatsha ngikuqhatshile ngamamandrake endodana yami. Waselala laye ngalobobusuku.
Bꞌobꞌo na ma, Yakob baliꞌ mia osi nema. Ma Lea neu nandaa no e, de olaꞌ nae, “Aꞌa! Tetembaꞌ ia, aꞌa musi sungguꞌ mo au! Huu au bae basa aꞌa endiꞌ ana ngga modꞌo na ena.” De tetembaꞌ na, Yakob sungguꞌ no Lea.
17 UNkulunkulu wasemuzwa uLeya; wasethatha isisu, wamzalela uJakobe indodana yesihlanu.
Boe ma Lamatualain rena Lea hule-oꞌe na. Ana nairu, de bꞌonggi ana touꞌ kaliman.
18 ULeya wasesithi: UNkulunkulu unginikile umvuzo wami, ngoba ngayinika indoda yami incekukazi yami; waseyitha ibizo layo uIsakari.
Ana nae, “Lamatualain bae basa au bebꞌengge ngga ena, huu au fee Silpa sao nala sao ngga.” Naa de, ana babꞌae anaꞌ naa, Isaskar (sosoa na ‘bae bebꞌenggeꞌ’).
19 ULeya wasephinda ethatha isisu, wamzalela uJakobe indodana yesithupha.
Basa ma Lea nairu seluꞌ, de bꞌonggi ana kanee na.
20 ULeya wasesithi: UNkulunkulu unginikile mina isipho esihle; khathesi indoda yami izahlala lami, ngoba ngiyizalele amadodana ayisithupha, waseyitha ibizo layo uZebuluni.
Ana olaꞌ nae, “Lamatualain fee papala-babꞌanggiꞌ maloleꞌ neu au. De ia naa, au sao ngga musi fee hadat neu au, huu au bꞌonggi fee ne ana moneꞌ nee ena.” Naa de, ana babꞌae anaꞌ naa Sebulon (sosoa na ‘fee hadat’).
21 Emva kwalokhu wasezala indodakazi, wayitha ibizo layo uDina.
Lea o bꞌonggi ana inaꞌ esa, de babꞌae e Dina.
22 UNkulunkulu wasemkhumbula uRasheli, uNkulunkulu wasemuzwa, wavula isizalo sakhe.
Basa ma, Lamatualain nasanedꞌa Rahel, ma rena hule-oꞌe na. Naa de, Ana soi mamana ana na.
23 Wasethatha isisu, wazala indodana, wathi: UNkulunkulu ususile ihlazo lami.
Boe ma, Rahel nairu, de bꞌonggi ana touꞌ esa. Ana nae, “Lamatualain nggari hendi au mamaet ngga ena.”
24 Waseyitha ibizo layo uJosefa, esithi: INkosi kayengeze kimi enye indodana.
Ana olaꞌ nae, “Au oꞌe fo Lamatualain fee seluꞌ au ana touꞌ esa fai.” Naa de, ana babꞌae anaꞌ naa, Yusuf (sosoa na ‘hule fo fee seluꞌ’).
25 Kwasekusithi uRasheli esemzele uJosefa, uJakobe wathi kuLabani: Ngiyekela ngihambe ukuze ngiye endaweni yakithi, lelizweni lakithi.
Rahel bꞌonggi Yusuf ma, Yakob olaꞌ no Labꞌan nae, “Amaꞌ! Mete ma bisa, naa, au ae baliꞌ isiꞌ nusa ngga dei.
26 Ngipha omkami labantwana bami engibasebenzele kuwe ukuze ngihambe, ngoba wena uyazi umsebenzi wami engikusebenzele wona.
Fee au baliꞌ o sao-ana ngga ra. Amaꞌ bubꞌuluꞌ au tao ues naeꞌ fee amaꞌ ena, de au bae etu se ena. Huu naa, au hak se.”
27 ULabani wasesithi kuye: Uba-ke ngithole umusa emehlweni akho; sengibonile ngokukhangela ukuthi iNkosi ingibusisile ngenxa yakho.
Boe ma, ama ari na nataa nae, “Ana ngge! Rena dei. Au sangga basa uanaleꞌ, de bubꞌuluꞌ ae Lamatualain fee papala-babꞌanggiꞌ neu au, huu ho.
28 Wathi futhi: Ngimisela iholo lakho, njalo ngizakupha.
De ia naa, ho mae moꞌe baꞌu sa o, au bae! Sadꞌi ho leo sia ia, ma tao ues mukundoo fee au.”
29 Wasesithi kuye: Wena yazi ukuthi ngikusebenzele njani lokuthi izifuyo zakho bezinjani lami.
Ma Yakob nataa nae, “Amaꞌ mita no mata ma, au tao ues no manggateeꞌ. Naa de, banda mara boe ramaheta.
30 Ngoba okulutshwana owawulakho mandulo kwami, kwanda kakhulu kwaba yinkithinkithi; iNkosi ikubusisile ekufikeni kwami; pho-ke, ngizayisebenzela nini lami indlu yami?
Leleꞌ au nda feꞌe uma sa, amaꞌ suꞌi na nda naeꞌ sa. Te aleꞌ ia, amaꞌ namasuꞌi ena. Lamatualain pala-banggi fee amaꞌ ena, huu au ue-tatao ngga. Ia naa, au ae ue-tao fee sao-ana ngga ra.”
31 Wasesithi: Ngizakuphani? UJakobe wasesithi: Kawuyikunginika lutho, uba uzangenzela le into; ngizabuya ngeluse izimvu zakho ngizilinde.
Te Labꞌan natane nae, “Au musi bae ho taꞌo bee?” Yakob nataa nae, “Amaꞌ sudꞌi fee au saa-saa boe. Au uꞌuboi ukundoo banda mara, sadꞌi au bisa tao dalaꞌ esa.
32 Ngizadabula phakathi komhlambi wonke wakho lamuhla, ngehlukanise lapho yonke imvu elamabala lelamachatha, layo yonke imvu ensundu phakathi kwezimvu, lezilamabala lezilamachatha ezimbuzini, zibe liholo lami.
Fee isin au faiꞌ ia boe, uu sia amaꞌ banda nara, fo hii ala hiek-lombo. Bee nda kokotoꞌ sa, ma nda eꞌetaꞌ sa, naa ra, amaꞌ ena na. Te bee kokotoꞌ, ma eꞌetaꞌ, naa, au ena ngga. Ma au o haꞌi ala basa lombo nggeoꞌ ra. Basa naa ra, bae neu bebꞌengge ngga.
33 Njalo ukulunga kwami kuzangifakazela ngosuku oluzayo, uba usiza mayelana leholo lami, phambi kwakho; konke okungelamabala lamachatha ezimbuzini, lokunsundu emawundlwini, kuyabe kuntshontshiwe uba kukimi.
Sia fai maꞌabui na, dei fo amaꞌ nahine au ia ndoos, do hokoꞌ. Sudꞌi a fai hiraꞌ amaꞌ nema paresaꞌ au banda nggara. Mete ma hambu hiek nda kokotoꞌ sa, ldo nda eꞌetaꞌ sa, do lombo mutiꞌ, naa, amaꞌ nahine au umunaꞌo banda mara.”
34 ULabani wasesithi: Khangela, ye, kakube njengelizwi lakho.
Boe ma Labꞌan nau nae, “Malole! Taꞌo naa leo.”
35 Wasezehlukanisa mhlalokho impongo ezingamaqamule lezilamabala lazo zonke izibhuzikazi ezilamabala lezilamachatha, lakho konke okulokumhlophe, lakho konke okunsundu emawundlwini, wakunikela esandleni samadodana akhe.
Faiꞌ naa boe, Labꞌan banggi fea banda kokotoꞌ, eꞌetaꞌ ra, ma lombo nggeoꞌ ra. Ana denu ana nara reu tao mataꞌ neu banda naa ra.
36 Wabeka ummango wensuku ezintathu phakathi kwakhe loJakobe. UJakobe waseselusa imihlambi eseleyo kaLabani.
Ma ara rendi se risiꞌ mamanaꞌ esa dodꞌoo na lao eiꞌ fai telu mia Yakob e. Ma Yakob feꞌe naꞌabꞌoi ama ari na hiek-lombo feaꞌ nara.
37 UJakobe wasezithathela ingatsha ezimanzi zephophula leze-alimondi lezingelamaxolo, webula kuzo imizila emhlophe, wembula okumhlophe okwakusezingatsheni.
Basa ma, Yakob tati nala hau mataꞌ telu dana nara, de ana fina se dudꞌuiꞌ ra.
38 Wasefaka ingatsha ayezebulile emigelweni lemikolweni yokunathela yamanzi maqondana lemihlambi, lapho imihlambi efika khona ukunatha; yamitha ekufikeni kwayo ukuzanatha.
Basa de, ana mbedaꞌ hau naa ra, sia banda ra mamana nininu na. Banda ra hiiꞌ a rahoo sia mamana nininuꞌ naa.
39 Kwathi imihlambi isimithi ezingatsheni, imihlambi yazala amaqamule, alamabala lalamachatha.
Banda naa ra rahoo sia hau madꞌudꞌuiꞌ ra mata na, naa fo, ara bꞌonggi na ana nara fulu na kokotoꞌ ma eꞌeꞌtaꞌ.
40 UJakobe wasesehlukanisa amawundlu; wakhangelisa ubuso bomhlambi kwezingamaqamule lazo zonke ezinsundu zomhlambi kaLabani; wabeka imihlambi yakhe yodwa, engayibeki emhlanjini kaLabani.
Dadꞌi Labꞌan banda nara, rae rahoo naa, Yakob fee se mbali banda kokotoꞌ ma eꞌeꞌta ra. De ana nara o kokotoꞌ ma ꞌeꞌeta ra. Naa de, banda nara boe ramaheta. Basa de, ana tadꞌa fea se mia Labꞌan banda nara.
41 Kwasekusithi loba nini eziqinileyo zomhlambi sezimitha, uJakobe wafaka izingatsha phambi kwamehlo omhlambi emigelweni, ukuze zidabule phakathi kwezingatsha.
Banda maꞌadereꞌ ra rahoo naa, Yakob tao hau madꞌudꞌuiꞌ ra neu mata nara, sia mamana nininu na.
42 Kodwa nxa umhlambi ububuthakathaka kazifakanga; ngalokhu ebuthakathaka yaba ngekaLabani, leqinileyo ngekaJakobe.
Te mete ma banda manamaleꞌ ra rahoo na, ana nda tao hau naa ra sa. Naa de, Labꞌan hambu basa banda manamaleꞌ ra. Ma Yakob hambu basa banda maꞌadereꞌ ra.
43 Lendoda yaqhamuka yaba nkulu kakhulu, yaba lemihlambi eminengi lezincekukazi lezinceku lamakamela labobabhemi.
No taꞌo naa, Yakob namasuꞌi seli. Hiek-lombo, banda onta, keledei, no ate nara nae na seli.
