Uumama 31
1 Yaaqoobis akka ilmaan Laabaa, “Yaaqoob waan abbaan keenya qabu hunda fudhateera; qabeenya kana hundas waanuma kan abbaa keenyaa ture irraa argate” jedhan dhagaʼe.
Wasesizwa amazwi amadodana kaLabani esithi: UJakobe uthethe konke okukababa; langalokho okwakungokukababa wenza lonke loludumo.
2 Yaaqoobis fuula Laabaa ilaale; kunoo fuulli isaa akka duraatti isatti hin tolle.
UJakobe wasebona ubuso bukaLabani, futhi khangela, babunganjengamandulo kuye.
3 Waaqayyos Yaaqoobiin, “Biyya abbaa keetii fi fira keetti deebiʼi; anis si wajjin nan taʼa” jedhe.
INkosi yasisithi kuJakobe: Buyela elizweni laboyihlo lezihlotsheni zakho; njalo ngizakuba lawe.
4 Kanaafuu Yaaqoob akka isaan bakkeetti lafa bushaayeen isaa jiranitti gad baʼaniif gara Raahelii fi Liyaatti ergaa erge.
UJakobe wasethuma wababiza oRasheli loLeya emadlelweni emhlanjini wakhe,
5 Innis akkana isaaniin jedhe; “Ani akka abbaan keessan akka kanaan duraa sana fuula natti hin tolle hubadheera; garuu Waaqni abbaa kootii na wajjin jira.
wathi kibo: Ngiyabona ubuso bukayihlo ukuthi kabunjengamandulo kimi; kodwa uNkulunkulu kababa ube lami.
6 Akka ani humna koo guutuudhaan abbaa keessaniif hojjedhe isinuu beektu;
Futhi lina liyazi ukuthi ngamandla ami wonke ngimsebenzele uyihlo.
7 taʼus abbaan keessan mindaa koo yeroo kudhan geeddaruudhaan na gowwoomse. Waaqni garuu akka inni na miidhu hin eeyyamneef.
Kodwa uyihlo ungikhohlisile, waphendula iholo lami okwezikhathi ezilitshumi, kanti uNkulunkulu kamvumelanga ukwenza okubi kimi.
8 Yeroo inni, ‘Bushaayeen cocorreen mindaa kee taʼu’ jedhetti, bushaayeen hundi ilmaan cocorree dhalan; yeroo inni, ‘warri halluu qaxxaamuroo qaban mindaa kee taʼu’ jedhetti immoo bushaayeen hundi ilmaan qaxxaamuroo qaban dhalan.
Kwathi esitsho njalo: Ezilamabala zizakuba liholo lakho, khona umhlambi wonke wazala ezilamabala. Kwathi esitsho njalo: Ezingamaqamule zizakuba liholo lakho, khona umhlambi wonke wazala ezingamaqamule.
9 Waaqni karaa kanaan horii abbaa keessanii fuudhee naa kenne.
Ngokunjalo uNkulunkulu uthethe izifuyo zikayihlo, wanginika.
10 “Anis gaaf tokko waqtii gaana bushaayeetti abjuu keessa ol ilaalee kunoo korbeeyyiin reʼootatti hobobsan akka halluu qaxxaamuroo qaban, cocorree fi buburree taʼan nan arge.
Kwasekusithi, ngesikhathi umhlambi umitha, ngaphakamisa amehlo ami ngabona ephutsheni, khangela-ke, izimpongo ezikhwela umhlambi zazingamaqamule, zilamabala, lezizinala.
11 Ergamaan Waaqayyoos abjuu keessa, ‘Yaaqoob’ naan jedhe. Ani, ‘Kunoo asan jira’ jedheen deebise.
Ingilosi kaNkulunkulu yasisithi kimi ephutsheni: Jakobe! Ngathi: Khangela ngilapha.
12 Inni immoo akkana naan jedhe; ‘Akka korbeeyyiin reʼootaa kanneen bushaayeetti hobobsan hundinuu halluu qaxxaamuroo qaban, cocorree fi buburree taʼan ol jedhii ilaali. Ani waan Laabaan sitti hojjete hunda argeeraatii.
Yasisithi: Ake uphakamise amehlo akho ubone, zonke impongo ezikhwela umhlambi zingamaqamule, zilamabala lezizinala; ngoba ngibonile konke uLabani akwenze kuwe.
13 Ani Waaqa Beetʼeel lafa ati itti utubaa dibdee wareega naaf wareegde sanaa ti. Amma kaʼiitii biyya kana keessaa baʼiitii gara biyya fira keetiitti deebiʼi.’”
NginguNkulunkulu weBhetheli lapho owagcoba khona insika, owathembisa khona isithembiso kimi. Khathesi, vuka, uphume kulelilizwe, ubuyele elizweni lokuzalwa kwakho.
14 Kana irratti Raahelii fi Liyaan akkana jedhanii deebisan; “Qoodni yookaan dhaalli mana abbaa keenyaatti nuu hafe jiraa?
ORasheli loLeya baphendula bathi kuye: Siselesabelo lelifa endlini kababa yini?
15 Inni akkuma ormaatti nu ilaala mitii? Inni nu gurgurateeraatii maallaqa sababii keenyaaf kenname nyaatee fixeera.
Kasibalwa njengabezizwe kuye yini? Ngoba wasithengisa, futhi wadla lokudla imali yethu.
16 Qabeenyi Waaqni abbaa keenya irraa fuudhe hundi kan keenyaa fi kan ijoollee keenyaa ti. Egaa waan Waaqni sitti hime hunda godhi.”
Ngoba inotho yonke uNkulunkulu ayemuke ubaba ingeyethu leyabantwana bethu; khathesi-ke, konke uNkulunkulu akutsho kuwe, kwenze.
17 Yaaqoobis ijoollee isaatii fi niitota isaa gaalawwan irra kaaʼate;
UJakobe wasesukuma, wakhweza amadodana akhe labomkakhe emakameleni;
18 horii fi qabeenya kaaba dhiʼa Phaadaan Arraamiitti horatte hunda of dura oofee gara biyya Kanaʼaan abbaa isaa Yisihaaq bira dhaquuf kaʼe.
waqhuba izifuyo zakhe zonke, layo impahla yakhe yonke abeyizuzile, izifuyo zenzuzo yakhe, ayezizuze ePadani-Arama, ukuze aye kuIsaka uyise elizweni leKhanani.
19 Laabaan hoolota isaa irraa rifeensa murmuruu dhaqe; Raahel immoo waaqota abbaa ishee hatte.
Njalo uLabani esehambile ukuyagunda izimvu zakhe, uRasheli weba izithombe uyise ayelazo.
20 Yaaqoobis akka isa dhiisee baqachuu yaade isa dhoksuudhaan Laabaan namicha Arraam sana gowwoomse.
UJakobe wasuka enyenya engananzelelwe kuLabani umSiriya, ngoba kamazisanga ukuthi uyabaleka.
21 Innis waan qabu hunda fudhatee baqate; laga Efraaxiis ceʼee biyya gaara Giliʼaaditti qajeele.
Wasebaleka, yena lakho konke ayelakho, wasukuma, wachapha umfula, wakhangelisa ubuso bakhe entabeni yeGileyadi.
22 Akka Yaaqoob baqate guyyaa sadaffaatti Laabaatti himame.
Kwasekusaziswa uLabani ngosuku lwesithathu ukuthi uJakobe ubalekile.
23 Laabaanis firoota isaa fudhatee guyyaa torba Yaaqoob duukaa buʼee biyya gaara Giliʼaaditti isa qaqqabe.
Wasethatha abafowabo kanye laye, waxotshana laye ibanga lensuku eziyisikhombisa, wamfica entabeni yeGileyadi.
24 Waaqnis halkan abjuudhaan gara Laabaan namicha biyya Arraam sanaa dhufee, “Ati waan gaariis taʼu hamaa tokko iyyuu Yaaqoobitti akka hin dubbanne of eeggadhu” isaan jedhe.
UNkulunkulu wasesiza kuLabani umSiriya ephutsheni lebusuku, wathi kuye: Ziqaphele, hlezi ukhulume loJakobe okuhle kumbe okubi.
25 Yaaqoob yeroo Laabaan isa qaqqabetti, biyya gaaraa Giliʼaad keessa dunkaana isaa dhaabbatee ture; Laabaa fi firoonni isaas achi qubatan.
ULabani wasemfica uJakobe. Njalo uJakobe wayemise ithente lakhe entabeni; uLabani laye kanye labafowabo bamisa entabeni yeGileyadi.
26 Laabaanis Yaaqoobiin akkana jedhe; “Ati na gowwoomsitee intallan koo akka boojiʼamtoota waraanaatti fudhattee deemuun kee maal gochuu kee ti?
ULabani wasesithi kuJakobe: Wenzeni, ukuthi usuke unyenye ngingananzelele, uthathe amadodakazi ami ngamandla njengabathunjiweyo ngenkemba?
27 Ati maaliif dhoksaan baqatte? Maaliifis na gowwoomsite? Akka ani gammachuu fi faarfannaadhaan, dibbee fi baganaadhaan si geggeessuuf maaliif natti himuu didde?
Ubalekeleni ngasese, unginyenyela, ungangazisanga, ukuthi ngabe ngikuvalelise ngokuthokoza langengoma, ngesigubhu langechacho?
28 Ati akka ani ijoollee ijoollee kootiitii fi intallan koo dhungadhee nagaatti jedhu naaf hin eeyyamne. Ati hojii gowwummaa hojjete.
Njalo kawungivumelanga ukuthi ngange amadodana ami lamadodakazi ami. Khathesi wenze ubuthutha ngokwenza lokho.
29 Ani isin miidhuuf humna qaba; garuu eda Waaqni abbaa keessanii, ‘Ati waan gaariis taʼu hamaa tokko illee Yaaqoobitti akka hin dubbanne of eeggadhu’ naan jedhe.
Kusemandleni esandla sami ukwenza okubi kini; kodwa uNkulunkulu kayihlo ukhulumile kimi ebusuku obudlulileyo wathi: Ziqaphele ukuthi ungakhulumi loJakobe okuhle kumbe okubi.
30 Ati sababii mana abbaa keetiitti deebiʼuu akka malee hawwiteef deemteerta; garuu maaliif waaqota koo hatte?”
Khathesi-ke, ukuhamba uhambile, ngoba ngokukhanuka ukhanukile indlu kayihlo; webeleni onkulunkulu bami?
31 Yaaqoobis akkana jedhee Laabaaf deebii kenne; “Ati intallan kee humnaan narraa fudhatta jedhee waanan sodaadheef nan deeme.
UJakobe wasephendula wathi kuLabani: Ngoba ngesaba, ngoba wathi: Hlezi ungihluthunele amadodakazi akho.
32 Namni ati waaqota kee isa biratti argattu jiraachuu hin qabu. Akka wanni kan kee taʼe na bira jiruu fi akka hin jirre atuu fuula firoota keenyaa duratti sakattaʼi; yoo jiraate immoo fudhadhu.” Yaaqoob Raahel waaqota sana hattuu ishee Yaaqoob hin beeku ture.
Lowo ozathola kuye onkulunkulu bakho kangaphili; phambi kwabafowethu zinanzelelele okungokwakho okukimi, uzithathele. Ngoba uJakobe wayengazi ukuthi uRasheli wayebebile.
33 Laabaanis dunkaana Yaaqoob, dunkaana Liyaatii fi dunkaana xomboreewwan lamaanii seenee homaa dhabe. Erga dunkaana Liyaatii baʼee booddees dunkaana Raahel seene.
ULabani wasengena ethenteni likaJakobe lethenteni likaLeya, lethenteni lezincekukazi ezimbili, kodwa katholanga. Waphuma ethenteni likaLeya, wangena ethenteni likaRasheli.
34 Raahel immoo waaqota mana keessaa hatte sana kooraa gaalawwan ishee jala keessee irra taaʼaa turte. Laabaanis waan dunkaanicha keessa jiru hunda keessa barbaade; garuu homaa hin arganne.
Kodwa uRasheli wayethethe izithombe, wazifaka esikhwameni sesihlalo sekamela, wahlala phezu kwazo. ULabani waphumputha ithente lonke kodwa katholanga.
35 Raahelis abbaa isheetiin, “Yaa gooftaa ko, sababii ani kaʼee fuula kee dura dhaabachuu dadhabeef hin aarin; ani xuriin of irraa qabaa” jette. Innis ni sakattaʼe malee waaqota sana hin arganne.
Wasesithi kuyise: Kalungavuthi ulaka emehlweni enkosi yami ukuthi ngingesukume phambi kwakho, ngoba indlela yabesifazana ikimi. Wabhudula, kodwa kazitholanga izithombe.
36 Yaaqoobis Laabaatti aaree isatti dheekkame. Innis akkana jedhee gaafate; “Yakki koo maali? Wanni ati akkana na adamsituuf ani cubbuu maalii hojjedheeti?
UJakobe wasethukuthela, waphikisana loLabani; uJakobe waphendula wathi kuLabani: Isiphambeko sami siyini, isono sami siyini, ukuthi ungixotshe ngokutshiseka?
37 Ati miʼa koo hunda sakattaateerta; egaa miʼa mana keetii keessaa maal argatte? Yoo jiraate firoota keetii fi firoota koo duratti dhiʼeessiitii isaan nu lamaan gidduutti murtii haa kennan.
Njengoba usubambabambe kuyo impahla yami yonke, utholeni okwayo impahla yonke yendlu yakho? Ibeke lapha phambi kwabafowethu labafowenu ukuze baqume phakathi kwethu sobabili.
38 “Ani waggoota digdaman kana si wajjin jiraadheera. Hoolonnii fi reʼoonni kee tokko iyyuu hin gatanne; ani bushaayee kee keessaas korbeeyyii hin nyaanne.
Iminyaka le engamatshumi amabili ngangilawe; izimvukazi zakho lezibhuzikazi zakho kaziphunzanga, lezinqama zemihlambi yakho kangizidlanga.
39 Ani horii bineensi cabse gara keetti hin fidne; horii bades anatu kaffalaa ture. Waan guyyaas taʼu halkan hatame hundaaf ati na kaffalchiifatta turte.
Ezadatshulwayo kangizilethanga kuwe, mina ngazihlawula; esandleni sami wazibiza, zebiwe emini loba zebiwe ebusuku.
40 Haalli ani keessa jiraadhe kana ture; guyyaa hoʼa, halkan immoo dhaamochatu na waxala ture; hirribnis ija koo irraa bade.
Nganginjalo emini imbalela yangidla, lamakhaza ebusuku, ubuthongo babaleka emehlweni ami.
41 Akkasiin ani waggoota digdamman kana mana kee ture. Ani waggaa kudha afur intallan kee lamaaniif jedhee, waggaa jaʼa immoo bushaayee keetiif jedhee siif hojjedheera; ati immoo yeroo kudhan mindaa koo geeddarte.
Iminyaka le engamatshumi amabili bengisemzini wakho, ngakusebenzela okweminyaka elitshumi lane ngenxa yamadodakazi akho amabili, leminyaka eyisithupha ngenxa yomhlambi wakho; njalo waphendula iholo lami okwezikhathi ezilitshumi.
42 Waaqni abbaa ko, Waaqni Abrahaam, Sodaan Yisihaaq utuu na wajjin jiraachuu baate ati silaa harka duwwaa na baasta turte. Waaqni garuu rakkina koo fi dadhabbii koo argee eda sitti dheekkame.”
Ngaphandle kokuthi uNkulunkulu kababa, uNkulunkulu kaAbrahama lokwesaba kukaIsaka ubengelami, isibili khathesi ubuzangixotsha ngize. Inhlupheko zami lomtshikatshika wezandla zami uNkulunkulu ubonile, wakusola izolo ebusuku.
43 Laabaan akkana jedhee Yaaqoobiif deebise; “Dubartoonni kunneen intallan koo ti; ijoolleen kunneenis ijoolluma koo ti; bushaayeen kunneenis bushaayee koo ti. Wanni ati argitu hundi kanuma koo ti. Yoos ani waaʼee intallan koo kanneeniitii fi waaʼee ijoollee isaan daʼanii harʼa maal gochuun dandaʼa?
ULabani wasephendula wathi kuJakobe: Amadodakazi angamadodakazi ami, lamadodana angamadodana ami, lomhlambi ngumhlambi wami, lakho konke okubonayo kungokwami; lemadodakazini ami ngizakwenzani kuwo lamuhla, loba kubantwana bawo abawazeleyo?
44 Kottu mee anii fi ati amma walii kakannaa; kakuun kunis anaa fi si gidduutti ragaa haa taʼu.”
Khathesi-ke, woza, asenze isivumelwano, mina lawe, njalo sibe yibufakazi phakathi kwami lawe.
45 Yaaqoobis dhagaa tokko fuudhee akka utubaatti dhaabe.
UJakobe wasethatha ilitshe, walimisa laba yinsika.
46 Innis firoota isaatiin, “Dhagaa walitti qabaa” jedhe. Isaanis dhagaa walitti qabanii tuulan; jarris tuullaa sana biratti nyaata nyaatan.
UJakobe wasesithi kubafowabo: Buthani amatshe. Basebethatha amatshe, benza inqumbi; badla khona phezu kwenqumbi.
47 Laabaan tuullaa sanaan “Yigaarsahaadutaa” jedhee moggaase; Yaaqoob immoo “Giliʼaad” jedheen.
ULabani waseyibiza ngokuthi yiJegari-Sahadutha, kodwa uJakobe wayibiza ngokuthi yiGaledi.
48 Laabaanis, “Tuullaan kun anaa fi si gidduutti ragaa dha” jedhe. Gaalaʼaad jedhamuun isaa kanumaaf.
ULabani wasesithi: Linqwaba iyibufakazi phakathi kwami lawe lamuhla. Ngakho bayitha ibizo layo iGaledi,
49 Akkasumas Miisphaa jedhame; Laabaan akkana jedhee tureetii; “Yeroo nu gargar baanutti Waaqayyo sii fi ana gidduutti eegduu haa taʼu.
leMizipa, ngoba wathi: INkosi kayilinde phakathi kwami lawe, lapho singabonani omunye lomunye.
50 Yoo ati intallan koo rakkifte yookaan yoo ati intallan koo irratti niitota biraa fuute, yoo namni tokko iyyuu nu bira hin jirre kunoo Waaqni anaa fi siʼi gidduutti ragaa dha.”
Uba uhlupha amadodakazi ami, njalo uba uthatha abafazi phezu kwamadodakazi ami, kakulamuntu olathi, bona, uNkulunkulu ungumfakazi phakathi kwami lawe.
51 Laabaan ammas Yaaqoobiin akkana jedhe; “Tuullaa kanaa fi utubaa ani sii fi ana gidduu dhaabe kana ilaali.
ULabani wasesithi kuJakobe: Khangela linqwaba, khangela-ke lensika engiyiphosileyo phakathi kwami lawe.
52 Akka ani si miidhuuf jedhee tuullaa kana darbee gara keetti hin ceene, akka atis na miidhuuf jettee tuullaa kanaa fi utubaa kana dabartee gara kootti hin ceene tuullaan kun ragaa dha; utubaan kunis ragaa dha.
Linqwaba kayibe yibufakazi, lensika kayibe yibufakazi, bokuthi mina kangiyikuyidlula linqwaba ngiye kuwe, lawe kawuyikuyidlula linqwaba lalinsika uze kimi ngokubi.
53 Waaqni Abrahaam, Waaqni Naahoor, Waaqni abbootii isaanii nu gidduutti murtii haa kennu.” Yaaqoobis akkasitti maqaa Sodaa abbaa isaa Yisihaaqiin kakate.
UNkulunkulu kaAbrahama loNkulunkulu kaNahori, kahlulele phakathi kwethu, uNkulunkulu kayise wabo. UJakobe wasefunga ngokwesaba kayise uIsaka.
54 Innis biyya gaaraa sanatti aarsaa dhiʼeessee firoota isaa nyaatatti waame. Isaanis erga nyaatanii booddee achuma bulan.
UJakobe wasehlaba umhlatshelo entabeni, wabiza abafowabo ukuthi badle isinkwa; basebesidla isinkwa, balala entabeni.
55 Laabaanis guyyaa itti aanu ganama bariidhaan kaʼee ijoollee ijoollee isaatii fi intallan isaa dhungatee isaan eebbise. Ergasiis achii kaʼee gara iddoo isaatti deebiʼe.
ULabani wasevuka ekuseni kakhulu, wanga amadodana akhe lamadodakazi akhe, wawabusisa; uLabani wasehamba wabuyela endaweni yakhe.
