Бытие 29
1 И востав Иаков на нозе, иде в землю восточную к Лавану сыну Вафуила Сирина, брату же Ревекки матере Иаковли и Исавли.
And Jacob started and went to the land of the east to Laban, the son of Bathuel the Syrian, and the brother of Rebecca, mother of Jacob and Esau.
2 Узре же, и се, кладязь на поли: и бяху тамо три стада овец, почивающе при нем: от того бо кладязя напаяхуся стада. Камень же велий бяше над устием кладязя.
And he looks, and behold! a well in the plain; and there were there three flocks of sheep resting at it, for out of that well they watered the flocks, but there was a great stone at the mouth of the well.
3 И собирахуся тамо вся стада: и отваляху камень от устия кладязя и напаяху овцы: и паки полагаху камень на устии кладязя на месте своем.
And there were all the flocks gathered, and they used to roll away the stone from the mouth of the well, and water the flocks, and set the stone again in its place on the mouth of the well.
4 Рече же им Иаков: братия, откуду есте вы? Они же реша: от Харрана есмы.
And Jacob said to them, Brethren, whence are ye? and they said, We are of Charrhan.
5 Рече же им: знаете ли Лавана сына Нахорова? Они же реша: знаем.
And he said to them, Know ye Laban, the son of Nachor? and they said, We do know [him].
6 Рече же им: здравствует ли? Они же реша: здравствует. И се, Рахиль дщи его идяше со овцами.
And he said to them, Is he well? And they said, He is well. And behold Rachel his daughter came with the sheep.
7 И рече Иаков: еще есть дне много, не у час собирати скота: напоивше овцы, шедше пасите.
And Jacob said, it is yet high day, it is not yet time that the flocks be gathered together; water ye the flocks, and depart and feed them.
8 Они же реша: не можем, дондеже соберутся вси пастуси и отвалят камень от устия кладязя, и напоим овцы.
And they said, We shall not be able, until all the shepherds be gathered together, and they shall roll away the stone from the mouth of the well, then we will water the flocks.
9 Еще ему глаголющу к ним, и се, Рахиль дщи Лаваня грядяше со овцами отца своего: она бо пасяше овцы отца своего.
While he was yet speaking to them, behold, Rachel the daughter of Laban came with her father's sheep, for she fed the sheep of her father.
10 Бысть же яко узре Иаков Рахиль дщерь Лавана брата матере своея и овцы Лавана брата матере своея, и приступив Иаков отвали камень от устия кладязя:
And it came to pass when Jacob saw Rachel the daughter of Laban, his mother's brother, and the sheep of Laban, his mother's brother, that Jacob came and rolled away the stone from the mouth of the well, and watered the sheep of Laban, his mother's brother.
11 и напои овцы Лавана брата матере своея, и целова Иаков Рахиль, и возопив гласом своим, восплакася:
And Jacob kissed Rachel, and cried with a loud voice and wept.
12 и поведа Рахили, яко брат отца ея есть и яко сын Ревеккин есть. И текши поведа отцу своему по словесем сим.
And he told Rachel that he was the near relative of her father, and the son of Rebecca; and she ran and reported to her father according to these words.
13 Бысть же яко услыша Лаван имя Иакова сына сестры своея, тече во сретение ему и объемь его лобза, и введе его в дом свой. И поведа Лавану вся словеса сия.
And it came to pass when Laban heard the name of Jacob, his sister's son, he ran to meet him, and embraced and kissed him, and brought him into his house; and he told Laban all these sayings.
14 И рече ему Лаван: от костей моих и от плоти моея еси ты. И бе с ним месяц дний.
And Laban said to him, Thou art of my bones and of my flesh; and he was with him a full month.
15 Рече же Лаван Иакову: понеже брат мой еси ты, да не поработаеши мне туне: повеждь ми, что мзда твоя есть?
And Laban said to Jacob, Surely thou shalt not serve me for nothing, because thou art my brother; tell me what thy reward is to be.
16 У Лавана же бесте две дщери: имя старейшей Лиа, имя же юнейшей Рахиль.
Now Laban had two daughters, the name of the elder was Lea, and the name of the younger, Rachel.
17 Очи же Лиины болезненны: Рахиль же бе добра видом и красна взором зело.
And the eyes of Lea were weak. But Rachel was beautiful in appearance, and exceedingly fair in countenance.
18 Возлюби же Иаков Рахиль. И рече: поработаю тебе седмь лет за Рахиль дщерь твою меншую.
And Jacob loved Rachel, and said, I will serve thee seven years for thy younger daughter Rachel.
19 Рече же ему Лаван: лучше ми тебе дати ю, нежели иному отдати мужеви: со мною живи.
And Laban said to him, [It is] better that I should give her to thee, than that I should give her to another man; dwell with me.
20 И работа Иаков за Рахиль седмь лет: и быша пред ним яко малы дни, занеже любяше ю.
And Jacob served for Rachel seven years, and they were before him as a few days, by reason of his loving her.
21 Рече же Иаков Лавану: даждь ми жену мою, понеже совершишася дние, да вниду к ней.
And Jacob said to Laban, Give me my wife, for my days are fulfilled, that I may go in to her.
22 Собра же Лаван вся мужы места того, и сотвори брак.
And Laban gathered together all the men of the place, and made a marriage-feast.
23 И бысть вечер, и поемь Лаван Лию дщерь свою, введе ко Иакову: и вниде к ней Иаков.
And it was even, and he took his daughter Lea, and brought her in to Jacob, and Jacob went in to her.
24 Даде же Лаван Лии дщери своей Зелфу рабыню свою, ей в рабу.
And Laban gave to his daughter Lea, Zelpha his handmaid, as a handmaid for her.
25 Бысть же заутра, и се, бяше Лиа, и рече Иаков Лавану: что сие сотворил ми еси? Не Рахили ли ради работах у тебе? Вскую же обидел мя еси?
And it was morning, and behold it was Lea; and Jacob said to Laban, What is this that thou hast done to me? did I not serve thee for Rachel? and wherefore hast thou deceived me?
26 Отвеща же Лаван: несть тако в нашем месте вдати меншую прежде старейшия.
And Laban answered, It is not done thus in our country, to give the younger before the elder.
27 Скончай убо седмины сея, и дам ти и сию за дело, еже делаеши у мене еще седмь лет другия.
Fulfil then her sevens, and I will give to thee her also in return for thy labour, which thou labourest with me, yet seven other years.
28 Сотвори же Иаков тако: и исполни седмины сея: и даде ему Лаван Рахиль дщерь свою ему в жену.
And Jacob did so, and fulfilled her sevens; and Laban gave him his daughter Rachel to wife.
29 Даде же Лаван Рахили дщери своей Валлу рабу свою, ей в рабу.
And Laban gave to his daughter his handmaid Balla, for a handmaid to her.
30 И вниде (Иаков) к Рахили: возлюби же Рахиль паче, неже Лию: и работа ему седмь лет другия.
And he went in to Rachel; and he loved Rachel more than Lea; and he served him seven other years.
31 Видев же Господь Бог, яко ненавидима бяше Лиа, отверзе ложесна ея: Рахиль же бяше неплоды.
And when the Lord God saw that Lea was hated, he opened her womb; but Rachel was barren.
32 И зачат Лиа и роди сына Иакову: нарече же имя ему Рувим, глаголя: яко призре Господь на мое смирение и даде ми сына: ныне убо возлюбит мя муж мой.
And Lea conceived and bore a son to Jacob; and she called his name, Ruben; saying, Because the Lord has looked on my humiliation, and has given me a son, now then my husband will love me.
33 И зачат паки Лиа и роди сына втораго Иакову и рече: зане услыша Господь, яко ненавидима есмь, и придаде ми и сего. И нарече имя ему Симеон.
And she conceived again, and bore a second son to Jacob; and she said, Because the Lord has heard that I am hated, he has given to me this one also; and she called his name, Simeon.
34 И зачат еще и роди сына и рече: в нынешнее время у мене будет муж мой, родих бо ему три сыны. Сего ради нарече имя ему Левий.
And she conceived yet again, and bore a son, and said, In the present time my husband will be with me, for I have born him three sons; therefore she called his name, Levi.
35 И заченши еще роди сына и рече: ныне еще сие исповем Господу. Сего ради нарече имя ему Иуда, и преста раждати.
And having conceived yet again, she bore a son, and said, Now yet again this time will I give thanks to the Lord; therefore she called his name, Juda; and ceased bearing.
