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.
Now Rachel, because she had no children, was full of envy of her sister; and she said to Jacob, If you do not give me children I will not go on living.
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?
But Jacob was angry with Rachel, and said, Am I in the place of God, who has kept your body from having fruit?
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.
Then she said, Here is my servant Bilhah, go in to her, so that she may have a child on my knees, and I may have a family by her.
4 Assim lhe deu a Bilha sua serva por mulher: e Jacob entrou a ella.
So she gave him her servant Bilhah as a wife, and Jacob went in to her.
5 E concebeu Bilha, e pariu a Jacob um filho.
And Bilhah became with child, and gave birth to 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.
Then Rachel said, God has been my judge, and has given ear to my voice, and has given me a son; so he was named Dan.
7 E Bilha, serva de Rachel, concebeu outra vez, e pariu a Jacob o segundo filho.
And again Bilhah, Rachel's servant, was with child, and gave birth to 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, I have had a great fight with my sister, and I have overcome her: and she gave the child the name Naphtali.
9 Vendo pois Leah que cessava de parir, tomou tambem a Zilpah sua serva, e deu-a a Jacob por mulher.
When it was clear to Leah that she would have no more children for a time, she gave Zilpah, her servant, to Jacob as a wife.
10 E pariu Zilpah, serva de Leah, um filho a Jacob.
And Zilpah, Leah's servant, gave birth to a son.
11 Então disse Leah: Vem uma turba: e chamou o seu nome Gad.
And Leah said, It has gone well for me: and she gave him the name Gad.
12 Depois pariu Zilpah, serva de Leah, um segundo filho a Jacob.
And Zilpah, Leah's servant, gave birth to 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! and all women will give witness to my joy: and she gave him the 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.
Now at the time of the grain-cutting, Reuben saw some love-fruits in the field, and took them to his mother Leah. And Rachel said to her, Let me have some of your son's love-fruits.
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.
But Leah said to her, Is it a small thing that you have taken my husband from me? and now would you take my son's love-fruits? Then Rachel said, You may have him tonight in exchange for your son's love-fruits.
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.
In the evening, when Jacob came in from the field, Leah went out to him and said, Tonight you are to come to me, for I have given my son's love-fruits as a price for you. And he went in to her that night.
17 E ouviu Deus a Leah, e concebeu, e pariu um quinto filho.
And God gave ear to her and she became with child, and gave 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.
Then Leah said, God has made payment to me for giving my servant-girl to my husband: so she gave her son the name Issachar.
19 E Leah concebeu outra vez, e pariu a Jacob um sexto filho.
And again Leah became with child, and she gave Jacob a sixth son.
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 she said, God has given me a good bride-price; now at last will I have my husband living with me, for I have given him six sons: and she gave him the name Zebulun.
21 E depois pariu uma filha, e chamou o seu nome Dinah.
After that she had a daughter, to whom she gave the name Dinah.
22 E lembrou-se Deus de Rachel, e Deus a ouviu, e abriu a sua madre,
Then God gave thought to Rachel, and hearing her prayer he made her fertile.
23 E ella concebeu, e pariu um filho, e disse: Tirou-me Deus a minha vergonha.
And she was with child, and gave birth to a son: and she said, God has taken away my shame.
24 E chamou o seu nome José, dizendo: O Senhor me accrescente outro filho.
And she gave him the name Joseph, saying, May the Lord give me another son.
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.
Now after the birth of Joseph, Jacob said to Laban, Let me go away to my place and 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 been your servant, and let me go: for you have knowledge of all the work I have done for you.
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, If you will let me say so, do not go away; for I have seen by the signs that the Lord has been good to me because of you.
28 E disse mais: Determina-me o teu salario, que t'o darei.
Say then what your payment is to be and I will give it.
29 Então lhe disse: Tu sabes como te tenho servido, e como passou o teu gado commigo.
Then Jacob said, You have seen what I have done for you, and how your cattle have done well under my care.
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 before I came you had little, and it has been greatly increased; and the Lord has given you a blessing in everything I have done; but when am I to do something for my family?
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 Laban said, What am I to give you? And Jacob said, Do not give me anything; but I will again take up the care of your flock if you will only do this for me:
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.
Let me go through all your flock today, taking out from among them all the sheep which are marked or coloured or black, and all the marked or coloured goats: these will be my payment.
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.
And so you will be able to put my honour to the test in time to come; if you see among my flocks any goats which are not marked or coloured, or any sheep which is not black, you may take me for a thief.
34 Então disse Labão: Eis que oxalá seja conforme á tua palavra.
And Laban said, Let it be as you say.
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.
So that day he took all the he-goats which were banded or coloured, and all the she-goats which were marked or coloured or had white marks, and all the black sheep, and gave them into the care of his sons;
36 E poz tres dias de caminho entre si e Jacob: e Jacob apascentava o resto dos rebanhos de Labão.
And sent them three days' journey away: and Jacob took care of the rest of Laban's flock.
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,
Then Jacob took young branches of trees, cutting off the skin so that the white wood was seen in bands.
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 put the banded sticks in the drinking-places where the flock came to get water; and they became with young when they came to the water.
39 E concebia o rebanho diante das varas, e as ovelhas pariam listrados, salpicados e malhados.
And because of this, the flock gave birth to young which were marked with bands of colour.
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.
These lambs Jacob kept separate; and he put his flock in a place by themselves and not with 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 whenever the stronger ones of the flock became with young, Jacob put the sticks in front of them in the drinking-places, so that they might become with young when they saw the sticks.
42 Mas quando enfraqueceu o rebanho, não as poz. Assim as fracas eram de Labão, e as fortes de Jacob.
But when the flocks were feeble, he did not put the sticks before them; so that the feebler flocks were Laban's and the stronger were Jacob's.
43 E cresceu o varão em grande maneira, e teve muitos rebanhos, e servas, e servos, e camelos e jumentos.
So Jacob's wealth was greatly increased; he had great flocks and women-servants and men-servants and camels and asses.
