Bilowgii 29
1 Yacquubna sodcaalkiisii buu iska sii watay, oo wuxuu yimid dalkii reer bari.
Jacob resumed his journey and came to the land of the people of the east.
2 Kolkaasuu wax fiiriyey, oo wuxuu arkay ceel berrinka ku dhex yaal, oo waxaa joogay saddex qaybood oo ido ah oo agtiisa jiifjiifa, maxaa yeelay, ceelkaasay idaha ka waraabin jireen. Dhagaxa ceelka afkiisa saarnaana aad buu u weynaa.
He looked and saw a well in the field, and near it lay three flocks of sheep, because the sheep were watered from this well. And a large stone covered the mouth of the well.
3 Oo halkaasaa idaha oo dhan lagu soo ururin jiray: kolkaasay dhagaxa ceelka afkiisa ka rogi jireen, oo idaha ka waraabin jireen, markaasay mar labaad dhagaxa ceelka afkiisa saari jireen oo ku celin jireen meeshiisii.
When all the flocks had been gathered there, the shepherds would roll away the stone from the mouth of the well and water the sheep. Then they would return the stone to its place over the mouth of the well.
4 Markaasaa Yacquub ku yidhi, Walaalahayow, xaggaad ka timaadeen? Iyana waxay yidhaahdeen, Waxaannu ka nimid Haaraan.
“My brothers,” Jacob asked the shepherds, “where are you from?” “We are from Haran,” they answered.
5 Markaasuu ku yidhi, Ma taqaaniin Laabaan oo ah ina Naaxoor? Markaasay ku yidhaahdeen, Waannu naqaan.
“Do you know Laban the grandson of Nahor?” Jacob asked. “We know him,” they replied.
6 Markaasuu ku yidhi, Ma nabad qabaa? Iyana waxay yidhaahdeen, Haah, wuu nabad qabaa. Waa taas gabadhiisii Raaxeel idaha soo kaxaynaysa.
“Is he well?” Jacob inquired. “Yes,” they answered, “and here comes his daughter Rachel with his sheep.”
7 Oo wuxuu ku yidhi iyagii, Bal eega, weli waa maalin weyn, mana aha goortii xoolaha la soo wada ururin lahaa. Idaha waraabiya, oo kaxeeya oo daajiya.
“Look,” said Jacob, “it is still broad daylight; it is not yet time to gather the livestock. Water the sheep and take them back to pasture.”
8 Iyana waxay yidhaahdeen, Ma yeeli karno taas, jeeray idoyowga oo dhammu isu yimaadaan, oo dhagaxa ceelka afkiisa laga rogo; markaasaannu idaha waraabinaynaa.
But they replied, “We cannot, until all the flocks have been gathered and the stone has been rolled away from the mouth of the well. Then we will water the sheep.”
9 Oo intuu weli la hadlayay ayaa Raaxeel keentay idihii aabbeheed, waayo, iyadaa ilaalin jirtay.
While he was still speaking with them, Rachel arrived with her father’s sheep, for she was a shepherdess.
10 Oo Yacquub markuu arkay Raaxeel oo ahayd gabadhii abtigiis Laabaan, iyo idihii abtigiis Laabaan, ayuu u dhowaaday, oo dhagaxii ka rogay ceelka afkiisa, oo uu waraabiyey idihii abtigiis Laabaan.
As soon as Jacob saw Rachel, the daughter of his mother’s brother Laban, with Laban’s sheep, he went up and rolled the stone away from the mouth of the well and watered his uncle’s sheep.
11 Markaasuu Yacquub Raaxeel dhunkaday, wuuna qayliyey oo ooyay.
Then Jacob kissed Rachel and wept aloud.
12 Yacquubna wuxuu Raaxeel u sheegay inuu yahay aabbeheed xigaalkiis, oo uu yahay wiilkii Rebeqah; kolkaasay orodday oo u sheegtay aabbeheed.
He told Rachel that he was Rebekah’s son, a relative of her father, and she ran and told her father.
13 Oo Laabaan markuu maqlay warkii Yacquub oo ahaa wiilkii walaashiis ayuu ku orday inuu ka hor tago, markaasuu isku duubay, oo dhunkaday, oo uu gurigiisii keenay. Isna wuxuu Laabaan u sheegay waxyaalahan oo dhan.
When Laban heard the news about his sister’s son Jacob, he ran out to meet him. He embraced him and kissed him and brought him to his home, where Jacob told him all that had happened.
14 Laabaanna wuxuu ku yidhi isagii, Hubaal waxaad tahay laftayda iyo jidhkayga. Wuxuuna la joogay isagii intii bil ah.
Then Laban declared, “You are indeed my own flesh and blood.” After Jacob had stayed with him a month,
15 Markaasaa Laabaan Yacquub ku yidhi, Walaalkayga aad tahay aawadeed ma habboon tahay inaad mushahaarola'aan iigu shaqaysid? Bal ii sheeg, mushahaaradaadu maxay ahaan doontaa?
Laban said to him, “Just because you are my relative, should you work for nothing? Tell me what your wages should be.”
16 Laabaanna wuxuu lahaa laba gabdhood: midda weyn magaceedu wuxuu ahaa Lee'ah, tan yar magaceeduna wuxuu ahaa Raaxeel.
Now Laban had two daughters; the older was named Leah, and the younger was named Rachel.
17 Lee'ahna way indha darnayd, laakiinse Raaxeel way quruxsanayd, suurad wanaagsanna way lahayd.
Leah had weak eyes, but Rachel was shapely and beautiful.
18 Yacquubna wuxuu jeclaa Raaxeel; markaasuu yidhi, Toddoba sannadood baan kuugu shaqayn gabadhaada yar oo Raaxeel ah.
Since Jacob loved Rachel, he answered, “I will serve you seven years for your younger daughter Rachel.”
19 Laabaanna wuxuu yidhi, Waa wanaagsan tahay inaan adiga ku siiyo intii aan iyada nin kale siin lahaa, ee ila joog.
Laban replied, “Better that I give her to you than to another. Stay here with me.”
20 Yacquubna toddoba sannadood buu u shaqaynayay Raaxeel aawadeed; waxayna la ahaayeen maalmo yar, waana jacaylkii uu iyada u qabay aawadiis.
So Jacob served seven years for Rachel, yet it seemed but a few days because of his love for her.
21 Yacquubna wuxuu Laabaan ku yidhi, Maalmahaygii way dhammaystirmeen; ee naagtayda i sii, si aan ugu tago iyada.
Finally Jacob said to Laban, “Grant me my wife, for my time is complete, and I want to sleep with her.”
22 Markaasuu Laabaan soo ururiyey nimankii meeshaas joogay oo dhan, oo wuxuu sameeyey diyaafad.
So Laban invited all the men of that place and prepared a feast.
23 Oo waxay noqotay inuu fiidkii kaxeeyey gabadhiisii Lee'ah, oo uu u geeyey isagii; isna wuu u tegey iyadii.
But when evening came, Laban took his daughter Leah and gave her to Jacob, and he slept with her.
24 Laabaanna wuxuu gabadhiisii Lee'ah siiyey Silfah oo isaga addoon u ahayd inay iyada addoon u noqoto.
And Laban gave his servant girl Zilpah to his daughter Leah as her maidservant.
25 Yacquubna wuxuu aroortii arkay inay tahay Lee'ah, oo wuxuu Laabaan ku yidhi, Waa maxay waxan aad igu samaysay? Miyaanan Raaxeel kuugu shaqaynayn? De maxaad haddaba ii khiyaanaysay?
When morning came, there was Leah! “What have you done to me?” Jacob said to Laban. “Wasn’t it for Rachel that I served you? Why have you deceived me?”
26 Laabaanna wuxuu yidhi, Dhulkayaga sidaas laguma sameeyo in tan yar curadda la dhaafiyo.
Laban replied, “It is not our custom here to give the younger daughter in marriage before the older.
27 Bal tan toddobaadkeeda dhammee, tan kalena waxaannu kugu siin doonnaa shuqulka aad toddoba sannadood oo kale ii shaqayn doontid.
Finish this week’s celebration, and we will give you the younger one in return for another seven years of work.”
28 Yacquubna sidii buu yeelay, toddobaadkeediina wuu dhammeeyey. Markaasuu Laabaan Yacquub siiyey gabadhiisii Raaxeel inay naag u noqoto.
And Jacob did just that. He finished the week’s celebration, and Laban gave him his daughter Rachel as his wife.
29 Laabaanna wuxuu gabadhiisii Raaxeel siiyey Bilhah oo isaga addoon u ahayd inay iyada addoon u noqoto.
Laban also gave his servant girl Bilhah to his daughter Rachel as her maidservant.
30 Oo Raaxeelna wuu u tegey, oo isna Raaxeel aad buu uga jeclaa Lee'ah, toddoba sannadood oo kalena wuu u shaqeeyey isaga.
Jacob slept with Rachel as well, and indeed, he loved Rachel more than Leah. So he worked for Laban another seven years.
31 Rabbiguna wuxuu arkay in Lee'ah la nebcaaday, markaasuu maxalkeedii furay; laakiinse Raaxeel waxay ahayd madhalays.
When the LORD saw that Leah was unloved, He opened her womb; but Rachel was barren.
32 Lee'ahna way uuraysatay, oo waxay dhashay wiil, magiciisiina waxay u bixisay Ruubeen, oo waxay tidhi, Sababtu waxaa weeye inuu Rabbigu dhibaatadayda arkay, oo haatan ninkaygu wuu i jeclaan doonaa.
And Leah conceived and gave birth to a son, and she named him Reuben, for she said, “The LORD has seen my affliction. Surely my husband will love me now.”
33 Oo haddana way uuraysatay mar labaad, waxayna dhashay wiil, oo waxay tidhi, Rabbigu waa maqlay in lay nebcaaday, oo haddaba taas aawadeed ayuu ii siiyey wiilkanna; magiciisiina waxay u bixisay Simecoon.
Again she conceived and gave birth to a son, and she said, “Because the LORD has heard that I am unloved, He has given me this son as well.” So she named him Simeon.
34 Oo haddana mar kalay uuraysatay, oo waxay dhashay wiil, waxayna tidhi, Haatan ninkayga ayaa ila jiri doona, maxaa yeelay, saddex wiil baan u dhalay isaga; sidaas daraaddeed magiciisii waxaa loo bixiyey Laawi.
Once again Leah conceived and gave birth to a son, and she said, “Now at last my husband will become attached to me, because I have borne him three sons.” So he was named Levi.
35 Oo haddana way uuraysatay, oo waxay dhashay wiil; oo waxay tidhi, Haatan Rabbigaan ammaani, sidaas daraaddeed waxay magiciisii u bixisay Yahuudah; wayna dhalmo daysay.
And once more she conceived and gave birth to a son and said, “This time I will praise the LORD.” So she named him Judah. Then Leah stopped having children.
