Ӂенеза 29
1 Иаков а порнит ла друм ши с-а дус ын цара челор че локуеск ла Рэсэрит.
Then Jacob went on his journey till he came to the land of the children of the East.
2 С-а уйтат ынаинте ши ятэ кэ пе кымп ера о фынтынэ, ши лынгэ еа ерау трей турме де ой каре се одихняу, кэч ла фынтына ачаста обишнуяу чобаний сэ-шь адапе турмеле. Ши пятра де пе гура фынтыний ера маре.
And there he saw a water-hole in a field, and by the side of it three flocks of sheep, for there they got water for the sheep: and on the mouth of the water-hole there was a great stone.
3 Тоате турмеле се стрынӂяу аколо; чобаний прэвэляу пятра де пе гура фынтыний, адэпау турмеле ши апой пуняу пятра ярэшь ла лок пе гура фынтыний.
And all the flocks would come together there, and when the stone had been rolled away, they would give the sheep water, and put the stone back again in its place on the mouth of the water-hole.
4 Иаков а зис пэсторилор: „Фрацилор, де унде сунтець?” „Дин Харан”, ау рэспунс ей.
Then Jacob said to the herdmen, My brothers, where do you come from? And they said, From Haran.
5 Ел ле-а зис: „Куноаштець пе Лабан, фиул луй Нахор?” „Ыл куноаштем”, й-ау рэспунс ей.
And he said to them, Have you any knowledge of Laban, the son of Nahor? And they said, We have.
6 Ел ле-а зис: „Есте сэнэтос?” „Сэнэтос”, ау рэспунс ей. Ши токмай атунч веня Рахела, фата луй, ку оиле.
And he said to them, Is he well? And they said, He is well, and here is Rachel his daughter coming with the sheep.
7 Ел а зис: „Ятэ, соареле есте ынкэ сус ши-й пря девреме ка сэ стрынӂець вителе: адэпаць оиле, апой дучеци-вэ ши паштеци-ле ярэшь.”
Then Jacob said, The sun is still high and it is not time to get the cattle together: get water for the sheep and go and give them their food.
8 Ей ау рэспунс: „Ну путем пынэ ну се вор стрынӂе тоате турмеле; атунч се прэвэлеште пятра де пе гура фынтыний ши вом адэпа оиле.”
And they said, We are not able to do so till all the flocks have come together and the stone has been rolled away from the mouth of the water-hole; then we will get water for the sheep.
9 Пе кынд ле ворбя ел ынкэ, вине Рахела ку оиле татэлуй сэу, кэч еа ле пэзя.
While he was still talking with them, Rachel came with her father's sheep, for she took care of them.
10 Кынд а вэзут Иаков пе Рахела, фата луй Лабан, фрателе мамей сале, ши турма луй Лабан, фрателе мамей сале, с-а апропият, а прэвэлит пятра де пе гура фынтыний ши а адэпат турма луй Лабан, фрателе мамей сале.
Then when Jacob saw Rachel, the daughter of Laban, his mother's brother, coming with Laban's sheep, he came near, and rolling the stone away from the mouth of the hole, he got water for Laban's flock.
11 Апой Иаков а сэрутат пе Рахела ши а ынчепут сэ плынгэ таре.
And weeping for joy, Jacob gave Rachel a kiss.
12 Иаков а спус Рахелей кэ есте рудэ ку татэл ей, кэ есте фиул Ребекэй. Ши еа а дат фуга де а спус татэлуй сэу.
And Rachel, hearing from Jacob that he was her father's relation and that he was the son of Rebekah, went running to give her father news of it.
13 Кум а аузит Лабан де Иаков, фиул сурорий сале, й-а алергат ынаинте, л-а ымбрэцишат, л-а сэрутат ши л-а адус ын касэ. Иаков а историсит луй Лабан тоате челе ынтымплате.
And Laban, hearing news of Jacob, his sister's son, came running, and took Jacob in his arms, and kissing him, made him come into his house. And Jacob gave him news of everything.
14 Ши Лабан й-а зис: „Ку адевэрат, ту ешть ос дин оаселе меле ши карне дин карня мя!” Иаков а стат ла Лабан о лунэ.
And Laban said to him, Truly, you are my bone and my flesh. And he kept Jacob with him for the space of a month.
15 Апой Лабан а зис луй Иаков: „Фииндкэ ешть рудэ ку мине, сэ-мь служешть оаре деӂяба? Спуне-мь че симбрие врей?”
Then Laban said to Jacob, Because you are my brother are you to be my servant for nothing? say now, what is your payment to be?
16 Лабан ынсэ авя доуэ фете: чя май маре се нумя Лея ши чя май микэ, Рахела.
Now Laban had two daughters: the name of the older was Leah, and the name of the younger was Rachel.
17 Лея авя окий слабь, дар Рахела ера фрумоасэ ла статурэ ши мындрэ ла фацэ.
And Leah's eyes were clouded, but Rachel was fair in face and form.
18 Иаков юбя пе Рахела ши а зис: „Ыць вой служи шапте ань пентру Рахела, фата та чя май микэ.”
And Jacob was in love with Rachel; and he said, I will be your servant seven years for Rachel, your younger daughter.
19 Ши Лабан а рэспунс: „Май бине сэ ць-о дау цие, декыт с-о дау алтуя. Рэмый ла мине!”
And Laban said, It is better for you to have her than another man: go on living here with me.
20 Астфел, Иаков а служит шапте ань пентру Рахела; ши аний ачештя и с-ау пэрут ка врео кытева зиле, пентру кэ о юбя.
And Jacob did seven years' work for Rachel; and because of his love for her it seemed to him only a very little time.
21 Ын урмэ, Иаков а зис луй Лабан: „Дэ-мь неваста, кэч ми с-а ымплинит сорокул, ка сэ интру ла еа.”
Then Jacob said to Laban, Give me my wife so that I may have her, for the days are ended.
22 Лабан а адунат пе тоць оамений локулуй ши а фэкут ун оспэц.
And Laban got together all the men of the place and gave a feast.
23 Сяра, а луат пе фийкэ-са Лея ши а адус-о ла Иаков, каре с-а кулкат ку еа.
And in the evening he took Leah, his daughter, and gave her to him, and he went in to her.
24 Ши Лабан а дат ка роабэ фетей сале Лея пе роаба са Зилпа.
And Laban gave Zilpah, his servant-girl, to Leah, to be her waiting-woman.
25 А доуа зи диминяцэ, ятэ кэ ера Лея. Атунч, Иаков а зис луй Лабан: „Че мь-ай фэкут? Ну ць-ам служит оаре пентру Рахела? Пентру че м-ай ыншелат?”
And in the morning Jacob saw that it was Leah: and he said to Laban, What have you done to me? was I not working for you so that I might have Rachel? why have you been false to me?
26 Лабан а рэспунс: „Ын локул ачеста ну-й обичей сэ се дя чя май тынэрэ ынаинтя челей май марь.
And Laban said, In our country we do not let the younger daughter be married before the older.
27 Испрэвеште сэптэмына ку ачаста, ши-ць вом да ши пе чялалтэ пентру служба пе каре о вей май фаче ла мине алць шапте ань.”
Let the week of the bride-feast come to its end and then we will give you the other in addition, if you will be my servant for another seven years.
28 Иаков а фэкут аша ши а испрэвит сэптэмына ку Лея; апой, Лабан й-а дат де невастэ пе фийкэ-са Рахела.
And Jacob did so; and when the week was ended, Laban gave him his daughter Rachel for his wife.
29 Ши Лабан а дат ка роабэ фетей сале Рахела пе роаба са Билха.
And Laban gave Rachel his servant-girl Bilhah to be her waiting-woman.
30 Иаков а интрат ши ла Рахела, пе каре о юбя май мулт декыт пе Лея, ши а май служит ла Лабан алць шапте ань.
Then Jacob took Rachel as his wife, and his love for her was greater than his love for Leah; and he went on working for Laban for another seven years.
31 Домнул а вэзут кэ Лея ну ера юбитэ ши а фэкут-о сэ айбэ копий, пе кынд Рахела ера стярпэ.
Now the Lord, seeing that Leah was not loved, gave her a child; while Rachel had no children.
32 Лея а рэмас ынсэрчинатэ ши а нэскут ун фиу, кэруя й-а пус нумеле Рубен; „кэч”, а зис еа, „Домнул а вэзут мыхниря мя, ши акум бэрбатул меу аре сэ мэ юбяскэ негрешит”.
And Leah was with child, and gave birth to a son to whom she gave the name Reuben: for she said, The Lord has seen my sorrow; now my husband will have love for me.
33 А рэмас ярэшь ынсэрчинатэ ши а нэскут ун фиу ши а зис: „Домнул а аузит кэ ну ерам юбитэ ши мь-а дат ши пе ачеста.” Де ачея, й-а пус нумеле Симеон.
Then she became with child again, and gave birth to a son; and said, Because it has come to the Lord's ears that I am not loved, he has given me this son in addition: and she gave him the name Simeon.
34 Яр а рэмас ынсэрчинатэ ши а нэскут ун фиу ши а зис: „Де дата ачаста, бэрбатул меу се ва алипи де мине, кэч й-ам нэскут трей фий.” Де ачея й-а пус нумеле Леви.
And she was with child again, and gave birth to a son; and said, Now at last my husband will be united to me, because I have given him three sons: so he was named Levi.
35 А рэмас ярэшь ынсэрчинатэ ши а нэскут ун фиу, ши а зис: „Де дата ачаста, вой лэуда пе Домнул.” Де ачея й-а пус нумеле Иуда. Ши а ынчетат сэ май наскэ.
And she was with child again, and gave birth to a son: and she said, This time I will give praise to the Lord: so he was named Judah; after this she had no more children for a time.
