1 Raheli alipoona hamzalii Yakobo watoto, akamwonea ndugu yake wivu. Hivyo akamwambia Yakobo, “Nipe watoto, la sivyo nitakufa!”
Resoli'a mofavrea Jekopuna kase omino nuna'amofo kaniverenenteno, amanage huno Jekopuna asami'ne, Mofavre onte manine'na frisugi, Mofavre eri fore hunamio.
2 Yakobo akamkasirikia, akamwambia, “Je, mimi ni badala ya Mungu, ambaye amekuzuia usizae watoto?”
Higeno Jekopuna asi vazigeno Resolina rinkfa henenteno amanage hu'ne, Nagra Anumzana omani'noanki, aza karimpa erikigenka mofavrea kamu'enena hunka kasenontane.
3 Ndipo Raheli akamwambia, “Hapa yupo Bilha, mtumishi wangu wa kike. Kutana naye kimwili ili aweze kunizalia watoto na kwa kupitia yeye mimi pia niweze kuwa na uzao.”
Higeno Resoli'a amanage hu'ne, Kato mofani'a Bilha'a ama mani'neanki, antenka masegeno mofavre kase naminkeno, agripinti nagranena ana zanke hu'na mofavrea eri fore haneno.
4 Hivyo Raheli akampa Yakobo Bilha awe mke wake. Yakobo akakutana naye kimwili,
Anage nehuno kato mofa'a Bilhana amigeno anaroza higeno, Jekopu'a anteno mase'ne.
5 Bilha akapata mimba, naye akamzalia Yakobo mwana.
Ana higeno Bilha'a Jekopunteti amu'ene huno ne'mofavre kasente'ne.
6 Ndipo Raheli akasema, “Mungu amenipa haki yangu, amesikiliza maombi yangu na kunipa mwana.” Kwa sababu hiyo akamwita Dani.
Resoli'a amanage hu'ne, Anumzamo'a fatgoza hu'nane nehuno, nunamuni'a antahinamino ne'mofavre namie. Nehuno agi'a Dani'e huno ante'ne.
7 Bilha mtumishi wa kike wa Raheli akapata mimba tena, akamzalia Yakobo mwana wa pili.
Resoli kato mofa Bilha'a ete mago'ene amu'ene huno Jekopuna ne'mofavre kase amigeno tare se'ne.
8 Ndipo Raheli akasema, “Nilikuwa na mashindano makubwa na ndugu yangu, nami nimeshinda.” Kwa hiyo akamwita Naftali.
Resoli'a nevreno anage hu'ne, nuna nimofona tusiza hu'na kruno renente'na agateroe. Anage nehuno ana mofavremofo agi'a Naftali'e huno ante'ne.
9 Lea alipoona kuwa amekoma kuzaa watoto, alimchukua mtumishi wake wa kike Zilpa, naye akampa Yakobo awe mke wake.
Hanki Lia'a mago'ene mofavre onte mani'neno keana higeno, kato mofa'a Zilpana avreno Jekopu nenaroza hinogu eme ami'ne.
10 Mtumishi wa Lea yaani Zilpa, akamzalia Yakobo mwana.
Lia kato mofa Zilpa'a Jekopuna ne'mofavre kase ami'ne.
11 Ndipo Lea akasema, “Hii ni bahati nzuri aje!” Kwa hiyo akamwita Gadi.
Anante Lia'a amanage hu'ne, Na knare'za hue, nehuno agi'a Gati'e huno antemi'ne.
12 Mtumishi wa kike wa Lea akamzalia Yakobo mwana wa pili.
Lia kato a'mo Zilpa'a ne'mofavre Jekopuna kase amigeno tare se'ne.
13 Ndipo Lea aliposema, “Jinsi gani nilivyo na furaha! Wanawake wataniita furaha.” Kwa hiyo akamwita Asheri.
Ana higeno Lia'a anage hu'ne, Nagra muse huankino, a'nemo'za muse hu'mo'e hugahaze. Nehuno Asa'e huno agi'a antemi'ne.
14 Wakati wa kuvuna ngano, Reubeni akaenda shambani akakuta tunguja, ambazo alizileta kwa Lea mama yake. Raheli akamwambia Lea, “Tafadhali nakuomba unipe baadhi ya tunguja za mwanao.”
Witi taga hu'za eme vatu nehaza knare, Rubeni'a vano hiregati mago'a rone hunte flaua raga (Mandrake) erino nerera Lia hirega e'ne. Higeno Resoli'a amanage huno Liana antahige'ne, Muse (plis) hugantoanki Rubeni'ma rone hu flaua'mofo raga'a eme kami'nefintira mago'a namio.
15 Lakini Lea akamwambia, “Haikukutosha kumtwaa mume wangu? Je, utachukua na tunguja za mwanangu pia?” Raheli akasema, “Vema sana! Yakobo atakutana nawe kimwili leo usiku, kwa malipo ya tunguja za mwanao.”
Hianagi Lia'a amanage hu'ne, Kagrama nenavema hanre'nanana, e'i osi zampi? Hutenka menina ne' mofavrenimo'ma ronema hu flauama erino'ma e'nea erisue hunka nehano? Higeno Resoli anage hu'ne, Ha knarere, ana ronehu flauama namisana nona'a Jekopu'a meni kenage kagrane emasegahie.
16 Kwa hiyo Yakobo alipokuja kutoka shambani jioni ile, Lea akaenda kumlaki, akamwambia, “Lazima ukutane nami kimwili. Nimekukodisha kwa tunguja za mwanangu.” Kwa hiyo akakutana naye kimwili usiku ule.
Higeno ana zupa kinaga Jekopu'a hozaregati ne-egeno, Lia'a kantegati ome nevreno anage huno asmi'ne, mofavre'nimo'ma rone hu flauama erino e'nea flauateti Resolina nemina, kagrira ko miza se'noanki, kagra enka nagrane emasegahane. Higeno ana kenege Jekopu'a Lia'ene umase'ne.
17 Mungu akamsikiliza Lea, naye akapata mimba akamzalia Yakobo mwana wa tano.
Anumzamo'a Leana antahi amigeno, amu'ene huno 5fu'mofona ne'mofavre Jekopu'na kase ami'ne.
18 Ndipo Lea akasema, “Mungu amenizawadia kwa kumpa mume wangu mtumishi wangu wa kike.” Kwa hiyo akamwita Isakari.
Lia anage hu'ne, Anumzamo'a mizani'a namie, na'ankure eri'za mofani'a nenave avre amugeno anteno masegeno mofavre kase nami'ne. Huteno agi'a Isaka'e huno antemi'ne.
19 Lea akapata mimba tena akamzalia Yakobo mwana wa sita.
Lia'a Isaka amageteti amu'ene huno 6simofona ne'mofavre Jekopuna kase ami'ne.
20 Ndipo Lea aliposema, “Mungu amenizawadia kwa zawadi ya thamani sana. Wakati huu mume wangu ataniheshimu kwa sababu nimemzalia wana sita.” Kwa hiyo akamwita Zabuloni.
Lia'a anage hu'ne, Anumzamo'a mareri'nea miza muse hunanteno nami'neankino, menina nenave'a nagrira antahinamigahie. Na'ankure 6si'a ne'mofavre kase amue. Nehuno agi'a Zebuluni'e huno ante'ne.
21 Baadaye akamzaa mtoto wa kike akamwita Dina.
Henka'a Lia'a Zebuluni amagetetira mofara mago anteno agi'a Daina'e hu'ne.
22 Ndipo Mungu akamkumbuka Raheli, akasikia maombi yake na akafungua tumbo lake.
Anantera Anumzamo'a Resoli nunamuna antahi'nemino mofavre ante ku'a eri vasanente'ne.
23 Akapata mimba na akamzaa mwana na kusema, “Mungu ameniondolea aibu yangu.”
Ana higeno amu'ene huno ne'mofavre kasenenteno anage hu'ne, Anumzamo'a nagaze zana eri amne hunante huno nehuno,
24 Akamwita Yosefu na kusema, “Bwana na anipe mwana mwingine.”
agi'a Josefe'e huno antenemi'no anage hu'ne, Anumzamo'a ne'mofavrea mago'ene namisie.
25 Baada ya Raheli kumzaa Yosefu, Yakobo akamwambia Labani, “Nipe ruhusa nirudi katika nchi yangu.
Hagi Resoli'a Josefema kasentetegeno Jekopu'a Lebanina amanage huno asami'ne, nonkuma'niare mopani'arega vunaku huanki hunantege'na va'neno.
26 Nipe wake zangu na watoto, ambao nimetumika kuwapata, nami niende zangu. Unajua ni kazi kiasi gani ambayo nimekufanyia.”
A'neni'ane mofavre nagani'ane zamagriku hu'na eri'zanka'a eri'na e'noanki natregena va'neno. Hagi kagrake'za eri'zama erigante'noa zana kenka antahinka hu'nane.
27 Lakini Labani akamwambia, “Ikiwa nimepata kibali machoni pako, tafadhali ukae. Nimegundua kwa njia ya uaguzi kwamba Bwana amenibariki kwa sababu yako.”
Hianagi Lebani'a amanage huno Jekopuna asami'ne, Nagrama kasnampa hu'na kagri'ma kagoana, nagrane mani'nankeno Ra Anumzamo'a kagriku huno asomura hunenante. Hagi menima kagrama kavesi nantesunka nagrane manio.
28 Akaongeza kumwambia, “Taja ujira wako nami nitakulipa.”
Nehuno Lebani'a ru'ene kea avazu huno anage hu'ne, Kema hananama'a ana avamente kamigahue. Hagi miza agi ahenanto.
29 Yakobo akamwambia, “Unajua jinsi ambavyo nimekutumikia na jinsi ambavyo wanyama wako walivyolishwa vizuri chini ya uangalizi wangu.
Higeno Jekopu'a amanage huno asami'ne, nagrama eri'zanka'a eri'na neogeno maka afukamo knareke huno e'neana, kagra kenka antahinka hu'nane.
30 Kidogo ulichokuwa nacho kabla sijaja kimeongezeka sana, naye Bwana amekubariki popote nilipokuwa. Lakini sasa, ni lini nitashughulikia mambo ya nyumba yangu mwenyewe?”
Nagrama ome'nogenka, kagra osi'a sipisipi afuzaga ante'nananagi, nagrama erua eri'zampi Ra Anumzamo'a asomu hugantegeno rukazi huno rama'a fore hu'ne. Hagi ina zupa natre'nankena a' mofavreni'a zamaza hugahue?
31 Labani akamuuliza, “Nikupe nini?” Yakobo akamjibu, “Usinipe chochote lakini kama utanifanyia jambo hili moja, nitaendelea kuchunga na kuyaangalia makundi yako.
Higeno Lebani'a amanage huno Jekopuna asmi'ne, Na'a nagra kamigahue? Higeno Jekopu'a anage hu'ne, Kagra mago zane hunka onamigahane. Kagra magoke zantfa nagrira hunantegahane, nagra mago'ene afuzagaka'a traza me'nesirega kegava hugantegahue.
32 Niruhusu nipite katika makundi yako yote leo niondoe humo kila kondoo mwenye mabakabaka au madoadoa, kila mwana-kondoo mweusi na kila mbuzi mwenye madoadoa au mabakabaka. Hawa watakuwa ujira wangu.
Hagi menina natrege'na maka afu zagaka'a mani'nafi vano nehu'na, tupri tapri sipisipine, aganumpa lama anenta'ma tegre ramine'niane, tupri tapri hu'nenia memene avre rure ha'nenkeno, e'i ana afu'zagamo nagri miza megahie.
33 Uadilifu wangu utanishuhudia siku zijazo, kila utakapochunguza ujira ambao umenilipa mimi. Mbuzi yeyote wangu ambaye hana mabakabaka wala madoadoa, au mwana-kondoo ambaye si mweusi, atahesabika ameibwa.”
Henka mizama naminaku hanana zupa, havigema hu'zankura e'i anamo eriama hunantegahie. Hakare'a agrono kre ramineni'ane, tupri tapri osu'nenia memempi, aganumpa osu'nenia lama anenta'enema, nagri afupima kenunka kumzafa se'nane huo.
34 Labani akasema, “Ninakubali na iwe kama ulivyosema.”
Higeno Lebani'a amanage hu'ne, Ha knareki, kema hanaza huo.
35 Siku ile ile Yakobo akawaondoa beberu wote waliokuwa na mistari au madoadoa na mbuzi wake wote waliokuwa na mistari au madoadoa (wote waliokuwa na alama nyeupe juu yao) na wana-kondoo weusi wote, akawaweka chini ya uangalizi wa wanawe.
Higeno ana zagekna zupage, agra'a Lebani'a vuno maka'a agrono krerami'neane, tupri taprima hu'nea ve memene tupri tapri hu'nea a' memene, efeke hu'neane, aganumpa sipisipi afura avrezamige'za amohe'za afete'are ome ante'za kegava hu'naze.
36 Kisha Labani akamwacha Yakobo kwa mwendo wa safari ya siku tatu kati yake na Yakobo, wakati Yakobo akiendelea kuchunga lile kundi la Labani lililobaki.
Lebani'a Jekopuna atreno taregi magoki zagegna vu'are afete afu'zaga'a avreno umanigeno, Jekopu'a ruga'a afu'zagare kegava krino mani'ne.
37 Hata hivyo, Yakobo, akachukua fito mbichi zilizokatwa wakati huo huo za miti ya mlubna, mlozi na mwaramoni akazibambua ili mistari myeupe ionekane katika fito hizo.
Hianagi kegava huno mani'neno tagufa ruzahu ruzahu zafamofo azankunatmi akafrino, ukari'za mago'a nehareno nohareno higeno efeke nehigeno, tupri tapri hu'ne. Ana zafa ukari'ma haregeno'a efeke hu'ne.
38 Kisha akaweka fito alizozibambua kwenye mabirika yote ya kunyweshea mifugo, ili ziwe mbele ya makundi walipokuja kunywa maji. Wanyama walipokuja kunywa maji, hali wakiwa wanahitaji mbegu,
E'i ana zafa azankunatamina erino vuno sipisipine mememo'za ti nenazare zamavuga ana zotaramina mopafi ome rentetere hu'ne. Hagi tima nenaku esanu'za eme nege'za ve afu'moza a' afu'tamimofo zamagumpi marerihogu anara hu'ne.
39 wakapandwa hizo fito zikiwa mbele yao. Wanyama waliopata mimba mbele ya hizo fito walizaa wanyama wenye mistari, madoadoa na mabakabaka.
Hanki e'i ana zafa azankunatamima rente'nea tva'ontema ve afu'mo'ma a' afumofo agumpima marerinkeno'a, ana afu'mo'a tupri tapri azoka'ene anenta antegahie.
40 Yakobo akawatenga wadogo wa kundi peke yao, lakini akazielekeza nyuso za hao waliobaki kwenye wale wenye mistari na weusi waliokuwa mali ya Labani. Hivyo akatenga makundi yake mwenyewe, na wala hakuwachanganya na wanyama wa Labani.
Hanki Jekopu'a tupri tapri' azoka'ene ve afu'zaga agra'a suza refko huganti netreno, aganumpa ve afuzaga zamatrege'za Lebani afuzagafi mani'naze.
41 Kila mara wanyama wenye nguvu walipohitaji mbegu, Yakobo aliweka zile fito kwenye mabirika mbele ya hao wanyama, ili wapandwe karibu na hizo fito,
Hanki hankavenetake ve afu'zagamo'zama a' afumokizmi zamagumpima marerizama nehazageno'a, Jekopu'a ana zafa azankuna zamavuga tinkampi arentetere hu'ne. Ana hige'za zafa azankuna rente'nea tava'onte agumpina mareritere hu'naze.
42 lakini ikiwa wanyama walikuwa wadhaifu hakuziweka hizo fito. Hivyo wanyama wadhaifu wakawa wa Labani, na wanyama wenye nguvu wakawa wa Yakobo.
Hianagi hankave'a omane'nea ve afu'zagamo'zama, a' afu'mokizmi zamagumpima marerizama nehazageno'a, Jekopu'a ana zafa azankunatamina zamavuga ome reonte'ne. Hagi hankave'a omne'nea afu'zaga e'i Lebani afu'zagagi, hanave afu'zaga Jekopu suzane.
43 Kwa njia hii Yakobo akastawi sana, tena akawa na makundi makubwa, watumishi wa kike na wa kiume na ngamia na punda.
Ana nehuno afu'amo hakare higeno, eri'za vene a'ene, kemorine, donkine, hakare'aza nenteno Jekopu'a feno ne' efore hu'ne.
