< Gênesis 30 >

1 Vendo pois Rachel que não paria filhos a Jacob, teve Rachel inveja de sua irmã, e disse a Jacob: Dá-me filhos, ou se não morro.
And when Rachel saw that she bore Jacob no sons, Rachel envied her sister, and she said to Jacob, Give me sons, or else I die.
2 Então se accendeu a ira de Jacob contra Rachel, e disse: Estou eu no logar de Deus, que te impediu o fructo de teu ventre?
And Jacob's anger was kindled against Rachel, and he said, Am I in God's stead, who has withheld from thee the fruit of the womb?
3 E ella disse: Eis aqui minha serva Bilha; entra a ella, para que pára sobre os meus joelhos, e eu tambem seja edificada d'ella.
And she said, Behold, my maid Bilhah, go in to her, that she may bear upon my knees, and I also may obtain sons by her.
4 Assim lhe deu a Bilha sua serva por mulher: e Jacob entrou a ella.
And she gave him Bilhah her handmaid to wife, and Jacob went in to her.
5 E concebeu Bilha, e pariu a Jacob um filho.
And Bilhah conceived, and bore Jacob a son.
6 Então disse Rachel: Julgou-me Deus, e tambem ouviu a minha voz, e me deu um filho; por isso chamou o seu nome Dan.
And Rachel said, God has judged me, and has also heard my voice, and has given me a son. Therefore she called his name Dan.
7 E Bilha, serva de Rachel, concebeu outra vez, e pariu a Jacob o segundo filho.
And Bilhah Rachel's handmaid conceived again, and bore Jacob a second son.
8 Então disse Rachel: Com luctas de Deus tenho luctado com minha irmã, tambem venci; e chamou o seu nome Naphtali.
And Rachel said, With mighty wrestlings have I wrestled with my sister, and have prevailed. And she called his name Naphtali.
9 Vendo pois Leah que cessava de parir, tomou tambem a Zilpah sua serva, e deu-a a Jacob por mulher.
When Leah saw that she had left off bearing, she took Zilpah her handmaid, and gave her to Jacob to wife.
10 E pariu Zilpah, serva de Leah, um filho a Jacob.
And Zilpah Leah's handmaid bore Jacob a son.
11 Então disse Leah: Vem uma turba: e chamou o seu nome Gad.
And Leah said, Fortunate! And she called his name Gad.
12 Depois pariu Zilpah, serva de Leah, um segundo filho a Jacob.
And Zilpah Leah's handmaid bore Jacob a second son.
13 Então disse Leah: Para minha ventura; porque as filhas me terão por bemaventurada: e chamou o seu nome Asher.
And Leah said, Happy am I! For the daughters will call me happy. And she called his name Asher.
14 E foi Ruben nos dias da sega do trigo, e achou mandrágoras no campo. E trouxe-as a Leah, sua mãe. Então disse Rachel a Leah: Ora dá-me das mandrágoras do teu filho.
And Reuben went in the days of wheat harvest, and found mandrakes in the field, and brought them to his mother Leah. Then Rachel said to Leah, Give me, I pray thee, of thy son's mandrakes.
15 E ella lhe disse: É já pouco que hajas tomado o meu marido, tomarás tambem as mandrágoras do meu filho? Então disse Rachel: Por isso se deitará comtigo esta noite pelas mandrágoras de teu filho.
And she said to her, Is it a small matter that thou have taken away my husband? And would thou take away my son's mandrakes also? And Rachel said, Therefore he shall lie with thee tonight for thy son's mandrakes.
16 Vindo pois Jacob á tarde do campo, saiu-lhe Leah ao encontro, e disse: A mim entrarás, porque certamente te aluguei com as mandrágoras do meu filho. E deitou-se com ella aquella noite.
And Jacob came from the field in the evening, and Leah went out to meet him, and said, Thou must come in to me, for I have surely hired thee with my son's mandrakes. And he lay with her that night.
17 E ouviu Deus a Leah, e concebeu, e pariu um quinto filho.
And God hearkened to Leah, and she conceived, and bore Jacob a fifth son.
18 Então disse Leah: Deus me tem dado o meu galardão, pois tenho dado minha serva ao meu marido: e chamou o seu nome Issacar.
And Leah said, God has given me my hire, because I gave my handmaid to my husband. And she called his name Issachar.
19 E Leah concebeu outra vez, e pariu a Jacob um sexto filho.
And Leah conceived again, and bore a sixth son to Jacob.
20 E disse Leah: Deus me deu a mim uma boa dadiva; d'esta vez morará o meu marido commigo, porque lhe tenho parido seis filhos: e chamou o seu nome Zebulon.
And Leah said, God has endowed me with a good dowry. Now my husband will dwell with me, because I have borne him six sons. And she called his name Zebulun.
21 E depois pariu uma filha, e chamou o seu nome Dinah.
And afterwards she bore a daughter, and called her name Dinah.
22 E lembrou-se Deus de Rachel, e Deus a ouviu, e abriu a sua madre,
And God remembered Rachel. And God hearkened to her, and opened her womb.
23 E ella concebeu, e pariu um filho, e disse: Tirou-me Deus a minha vergonha.
And she conceived, and bore a son, and said, God has taken away my reproach.
24 E chamou o seu nome José, dizendo: O Senhor me accrescente outro filho.
And she called his name Joseph, saying, Jehovah adds another son to me.
25 E aconteceu que, como Rachel pariu a José, disse Jacob a Labão: Deixa-me ir, que me vá ao meu logar, e á minha terra.
And it came to pass, when Rachel had borne Joseph, that Jacob said to Laban, Send me away, that I may go to my own place, and to my country.
26 Dá-me as minhas mulheres, e os meus filhos, pelas quaes te tenho servido, e ir-me-hei; pois tu sabes o meu serviço, que te tenho feito.
Give me my wives and my children for whom I have served thee, and let me go, for thou know my service with which I have served thee.
27 Então lhe disse Labão: Se agora tenho achado graça em teus olhos, fica commigo. Tenho experimentado que o Senhor me abençoou por amor de ti.
And Laban said to him, If now I have found favor in thine eyes, tarry, for I have learned by experience that Jehovah has blessed me for thy sake.
28 E disse mais: Determina-me o teu salario, que t'o darei.
And he said, Appoint for me thy wages, and I will give it.
29 Então lhe disse: Tu sabes como te tenho servido, e como passou o teu gado commigo.
And he said to him, Thou know how I have served thee, and how thy cattle have fared with me.
30 Porque o pouco que tinhas antes de mim, é augmentado até uma multidão: e o Senhor te tem abençoado por meu trabalho. Agora pois, quando hei-de trabalhar tambem por minha casa?
For it was little which thou had before I came, and it has increased to a multitude, and Jehovah has blessed thee wherever I turned. And now when shall I provide for my own house also?
31 E disse elle: Que te darei? Então disse Jacob: Nada me darás; se me fizeres isto, tornarei a apascentar e a guardar o teu rebanho.
And he said, What shall I give thee? And Jacob said, Thou shall not give me anything. If thou will do this thing for me, I will again feed thy flock and keep it.
32 Passarei hoje por todo o teu rebanho, separando d'elle todos os salpicados e malhados, e todos os morenos entre os cordeiros, e os malhados e salpicados entre as cabras: e isto será o meu salario.
I will pass through all thy flock today, removing from there every speckled and spotted one, and every black one among the sheep, and the spotted and speckled among the goats, and of such shall be my hire.
33 Assim testificará por mim a minha justiça no dia d'ámanhã, quando vieres e o meu salario estiver diante de tua face: tudo o que não for salpicado e malhado entre as cabras e moreno entre os cordeiros, ser-me-ha por furto.
So shall my righteousness answer for me after this, when thou shall come concerning my hire that is before thee. Every one that is not speckled and spotted among the goats, and black among the sheep, that is with me, shall be considered stolen.
34 Então disse Labão: Eis que oxalá seja conforme á tua palavra.
And Laban said, Behold, O that it might be according to thy word.
35 E separou n'aquelle mesmo dia os bodes listrados e malhados e todas as cabras salpicadas e malhadas, tudo em que havia brancura, e todo o moreno entre os cordeiros; e deu-os nas mãos dos seus filhos.
And he removed that day the he-goats that were ringstreaked and spotted, and all the she-goats that were speckled and spotted, every one that had white in it, and all the black ones among the sheep, and gave them into the hand of his sons.
36 E poz tres dias de caminho entre si e Jacob: e Jacob apascentava o resto dos rebanhos de Labão.
And he set three days' journey between himself and Jacob. And Jacob fed the rest of Laban's flocks.
37 Então tomou Jacob varas verdes d'alamo, e d'aveleira e de castanheiro, e descascou n'ellas riscas brancas, descobrindo a brancura que nas varas havia,
And Jacob took for him rods of fresh poplar, and of the almond and of the plane tree, and peeled white streaks in them, and made the white which was in the rods appear.
38 E poz estas varas, que tinha descascado, em frente do rebanho, nos canos e nas pias d'agua, aonde o rebanho vinha a beber, e conceberam vindo a beber.
And he set the rods which he had peeled before the flocks in the gutters in the watering troughs where the flocks came to drink. And they conceived when they came to drink.
39 E concebia o rebanho diante das varas, e as ovelhas pariam listrados, salpicados e malhados.
And the flocks conceived before the rods, and the flocks brought forth ringstreaked, speckled, and spotted.
40 Então separou Jacob os cordeiros, e poz as faces do rebanho para os listrados, e todo o moreno entre o rebanho de Labão; e poz o seu rebanho á parte, e não o poz com o rebanho de Labão.
And Jacob separated the lambs, and set the faces of the flocks toward the ringstreaked and all the black in the flock of Laban. And he put his own herds apart, and did not put them near Laban's flock.
41 E succedia que cada vez que concebiam as ovelhas fortes, punha Jacob as varas diante dos olhos do rebanho nos canos, para que concebessem diante das varas.
And it came to pass, whenever the stronger of the flock conceived, that Jacob laid the rods before the eyes of the flock in the gutters, that they might conceive among the rods,
42 Mas quando enfraqueceu o rebanho, não as poz. Assim as fracas eram de Labão, e as fortes de Jacob.
but when the flock were weak, he did not put them in. So the weaker were Laban's, and the stronger Jacob's.
43 E cresceu o varão em grande maneira, e teve muitos rebanhos, e servas, e servos, e camelos e jumentos.
And the man increased exceedingly, and had large flocks, and maid-servants and men-servants, and camels and donkeys.
