1 Mojzes 30

1 Ko je Rahela videla, da Jakobu ne rojeva otrok, je Rahela zavidala svoji sestri in Jakobu rekla: »Daj mi otroke, sicer umrem.«

And when Rachel saw that she bare Jacob no children, Rachel envied her sister; and she said unto Jacob, Give me children, or else I die.

2 Jakobova jeza je bila vžgana zoper Rahelo in rekel je: » Sem jaz namesto Boga, ki je pred teboj zadržal sad tvoje maternice?«

And Jacob’s anger was kindled against Rachel: and he said, Am I in God’s stead, who hath withheld from thee the fruit of the womb?

3 Rekla je: »Glej, moja služabnica Bilha, pojdi noter vanjo in rodila bo na mojih kolenih, da bom po njej tudi jaz lahko imela otroke.«

And she said, Behold, my maid Bilhah, go in unto her; that she may bear upon my knees, and I also may obtain children by her.

4 In dala mu je za ženo Bilho, svojo pomočnico, in Jakob je šel noter k njej.

And she gave him Bilhah her handmaid to wife: and Jacob went in unto her.

5 Bilha je spočela in Jakobu rodila sina.

And Bilhah conceived, and bare Jacob a son.

6 Rahela je rekla: »Bog me je sodil in je tudi slišal moj glas in mi dal sina, « zato je njegovo ime imenovala Dan.

And Rachel said, God hath judged me, and hath also heard my voice, and hath given me a son: therefore called she his name Dan.

7 Rahelina služabnica Bilha je ponovno spočela in Jakobu rodila drugega sina.

And Bilhah Rachel’s handmaid conceived again, and bare Jacob a second son.

8 Rahela je rekla: »Z velikimi boji sem se bojevala s svojo sestro in sem prevladala, « in njegovo ime je imenovala Neftáli.

And Rachel said, With mighty wrestlings have I wrestled with my sister, and have prevailed: and she called his name Naphtali.

9 Ko je Lea videla, da je prenehala rojevati, je vzela svojo služabnico Zilpo in jo dala Jakobu za ženo.

When Leah saw that she had left off bearing, she took Zilpah her handmaid, and gave her to Jacob to wife.

10 Leina služabnica Zilpa je Jakobu rodila sina.

And Zilpah Leah’s handmaid bare Jacob a son.

11 Lea je rekla: »Prihaja krdelo, « in njegovo ime je imenovala Gad.

And Leah said, Fortunate! and she called his name Gad.

12 Leina služabnica Zilpa je Jakobu rodila drugega sina.

And Zilpah Leah’s handmaid bare Jacob a second son.

13 Lea je rekla: »Srečna sem, kajti hčere me bodo imenovale blagoslovljena, « in njegovo ime je imenovala Aser.

And Leah said, Happy am I! for the daughters will call me happy: and she called his name Asher.

14 Ruben je šel v dneh pšenične žetve in na polju našel nadliščke in jih prinesel svoji materi Lei. Potem je Rahela rekla Lei: »Daj mi, prosim te, nadliščke svojega sina.«

And Reuben went in the days of wheat harvest, and found mandrakes in the field, and brought them unto his mother Leah. Then Rachel said to Leah, Give me, I pray thee, of thy son’s mandrakes.

15 Ta pa ji je rekla: » Je to majhna zadeva, da si mi vzela soproga? In hočeš mi vzeti tudi nadliščke mojega sina?« Rahela je rekla: »Zato bo to noč ležal s teboj za nadliščke tvojega sina.«

And she said unto her, Is it a small matter that thou hast taken away my husband? and wouldest thou take away my son’s mandrakes also? And Rachel said, Therefore he shall lie with thee to-night for thy son’s mandrakes.

16 Jakob je zvečer prišel iz polja in Lea je odšla ven, da ga sreča ter mu rekla: »Moraš priti noter k meni, kajti zagotovo sem te najela z nadliščki svojega sina.« In to noč je ležal z njo.

And Jacob came from the field in the evening, and Leah went out to meet him, and said, Thou must come in unto me; for I have surely hired thee with my son’s mandrakes. And he lay with her that night.

17 Bog je prisluhnil Lei in je spočela in Jakobu rodila petega sina.

And God hearkened unto Leah, and she conceived, and bare Jacob a fifth son.

18 Lea je rekla: »Bog mi je dal najemnino, ker sem svojo deklo dala svojemu soprogu, « in njegovo ime je imenovala Isahár.

And Leah said, God hath given me my hire, because I gave my handmaid to my husband: and she called his name Issachar.

19 Lea je ponovno spočela in Jakobu rodila šestega sina.

And Leah conceived again, and bare a sixth son to Jacob.

20 Lea je rekla: »Bog me je opremil z dobro doto. Sedaj bo moj soprog prebival z menoj, ker sem mu rodila šest sinov« in njegovo ime je imenovala Zábulon.

And Leah said, God hath endowed me with a good dowry; now will my husband dwell with me, because I have borne him six sons: and she called his name Zebulun.

21 Potem je rodila hčer in njeno ime je imenovala Dina.

And afterwards she bare a daughter, and called her name Dinah.

22 Bog pa se je spomnil Rahele in Bog ji je prisluhnil ter odprl njeno maternico.

And God remembered Rachel, and God hearkened to her, and opened her womb.

23 Spočela je in rodila sina in rekla: »Bog je odvzel mojo grajo, «

And she conceived, and bare a son: and said, God hath taken away my reproach:

24 in njegovo ime je imenovala Jožef; in rekla: » Gospod mi bo dodal [še] drugega sina.«

and she called his name Joseph, saying, Jehovah add to me another son.

25 Pripetilo se je, ko je Rahela rodila Jožefa, da je Jakob rekel Labánu: »Pošlji me proč, da lahko grem na svoj lasten kraj in v svojo deželo.

And it came to pass, when Rachel had borne Joseph, that Jacob said unto Laban, Send me away, that I may go unto mine own place, and to my country.

26 Daj mi moje žene in moje otroke, za katere sem ti služil in me pusti iti, kajti poznaš mojo službo, ki sem ti jo opravljal.«

Give me my wives and my children for whom I have served thee, and let me go: for thou knowest my service wherewith I have served thee.

27 Labán mu je rekel: »Prosim te, če sem v tvojih očeh našel naklonjenost, ostani, kajti iz izkušnje sem se naučil, da me je Gospod zaradi tebe blagoslovil.«

And Laban said unto him, If now I have found favor in thine eyes, [tarry]: [for] I have divined that Jehovah hath blessed me for thy sake.

28 In rekel je: »Določi mi svoja plačila in dal ti jih bom.«

And he said, Appoint me thy wages, and I will give it.

29 Rekel mu je: »Ti veš kako sem ti služil in kako je bila tvoja živina z menoj.

And he said unto him, Thou knowest how I have served thee, and how thy cattle have fared with me.

30 Kajti bilo je malo, kar si imel, preden sem prišel in to je sedaj naraslo v množico in Gospod te je od mojega prihoda blagoslavljal. Kdaj bom torej poskrbel tudi za svojo lastno hišo?«

For it was little which thou hadst before I came, and it hath increased unto a multitude; and Jehovah hath blessed thee whithersoever I turned: and now when shall I provide for mine own house also?

31 In rekel je: »Kaj naj ti dam?« Jakob je rekel: »Nobene stvari mi ne boš dal. Če hočeš zame storiti to stvar, bom ponovno pasel in varoval tvoj trop.

And he said, What shall I give thee? And Jacob said, Thou shalt not give me aught: if thou wilt do this thing for me, I will again feed thy flock and keep it.

32 Danes pojdem skozi ves tvoj trop in iz njega odstranim vso lisasto in pikasto živino in vso rjavo živino med ovcami in pikasto ter lisasto med kozami. Od teh bo moja najemnina.

I will pass through all thy flock to-day, removing from thence 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 Tako bo moja pravičnost odgovarjala zame v času, ki pride, ko bo prišel, za moj najem pred tvojim obrazom. Vse, kar ni lisasto in pikasto med kozami in rjavo med ovcami, to bo pri meni šteto za ukradeno.«

So shall my righteousness answer for me hereafter, when thou shalt 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, [if found] with me, shall be counted stolen.

34 Labán je rekel: »Glej, hočem, da bi bilo glede na tvojo besedo.«

And Laban said, Behold, I would it might be according to thy word.

35 In ta dan je odstranil kozle, ki so bili krožno progasti in pikasti in vse koze, ki so bile lisaste in pikaste in vsako, ki je imela na sebi nekaj belega in vse rjavo med ovcami in jih dal v roko svojih sinov.

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 Med seboj in Jakobom je določil tri dni potovanja in Jakob je hranil preostanek Labánovih tropov.

and he set three days’ journey betwixt himself and Jacob: and Jacob fed the rest of Laban’s flocks.

37 Jakob si je vzel šibe zelenega topola in od leskovega in kostanjevega drevesa in na njih olupil bele proge in storil, da se prikaže belina, ki je bila na šibah.

And Jacob took him rods of fresh poplar, and of the almond and of the plane-tree; and peeled white streaks in them, and made the white appear which was in the rods.

38 Palice, ki jih je olupil, je postavljal pred trope v žlebove, v napajalna korita, ko so tropi prišli, da pijejo, da bi se obrejili, ko so prišli pit.

And he set the rods which he had peeled over against the flocks in the gutters in the watering-troughs where the flocks came to drink; and they conceived when they came to drink.

39 Tropi so se obrejili pred palicami in skotili krožno progasto, lisasto in pikasto živino.

And the flocks conceived before the rods, and the flocks brought forth ringstreaked, speckled, and spotted.

40 Jakob je v Labánovem tropu ločeval jagnjeta in postavljal obraze tropov h krožno progastemu in vsemu rjavemu. Svoje lastne trope pa je spravljal posebej in jih ni spravljal v Labánovo živino.

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 droves apart, and put them not unto Laban’s flock.

41 Pripetilo se je, da kadarkoli se je brejila močnejša živina, je Jakob polagal šibe pred očmi živine v žlebove, da bi se lahko obrejile med palicami.

And it came to pass, whensoever the stronger of the flock did conceive, that Jacob laid the rods before the eyes of the flock in the gutters, that they might conceive among the rods;

42 Toda ko je bila živina slabotna, jih ni polagal. Tako je bila slabotnejša živina Labánova, močnejša pa Jakobova.

but when the flock were feeble, he put them not in: so the feebler were Laban’s, and the stronger Jacob’s.

43 Mož je silno narasel in imel mnogo živine, dekel, slug, kamel in oslov.

And the man increased exceedingly, and had large flocks, and maid-servants and men-servants, and camels and asses.
