Genesis 30
1 Then Rachel, discerning that she was infertile, envied her sister, and so she said to her husband, “Give me children, otherwise I will die.”
Видевши же Рахиль, яко не роди Иакову, и поревнова Рахиль сестре своей и рече Иакову: даждь ми чада: аще же ни, умру аз.
2 Jacob, being angry, responded to her, “Am I in the place of God, who has deprived you of the fruit of your womb?”
Разгневався же Иаков на Рахиль, рече ей: еда вместо Бога аз есмь, Иже лиши тя плода утробнаго?
3 But she said: “I have a handmaid Bilhah. Go in to her, so that she may give birth upon my knees, and I may have sons by her.”
Рече же Рахиль Иакову: се, раба моя Валла: вниди к ней, и да родит на коленах моих, и чадо сотворю и аз от нея.
4 And she gave him Bilhah in marriage.
И даде ему Валлу рабу свою ему в жену: и вниде к ней Иаков.
5 And when her husband had gone in to her, she conceived and bore a son.
И зача Валла раба Рахилина и роди Иакову сына.
6 And Rachel said, “The Lord has judged for me, and he has heeded my voice, giving me a son.” And because of this, she called his name Dan.
И рече Рахиль: суди ми Бог и послуша гласа моего, и даде ми сына. Сего ради прозва имя ему Дан.
7 And conceiving again, Bilhah bore another,
И зачат еще Валла раба Рахилина и роди сына втораго Иакову.
8 about whom Rachel said, “God has compared me with my sister, and I have prevailed.” And she called him Naphtali.
И рече Рахиль: подя мя Бог, и сравнихся с сестрою моею, и возмогох. И прозва имя его Неффалим.
9 Leah, perceiving that she had desisted from child-bearing, delivered Zilpah, her handmaid, to her husband.
Виде же Лиа, яко преста раждати, и взя Зелфу рабу свою и даде ю Иакову в жену: и вниде к ней.
10 And she, after having borne a son with difficulty,
И зачат Зелфа раба Лиина и роди Иакову сына.
11 said: “Happiness!” And for this reason, she called his name Gad.
И рече Лиа: благо мне случися. И нарече имя ему Гад.
12 Likewise, Zilpah bore another.
И зачат еще Зелфа раба Лиина и роди Иакову сына втораго.
13 And Leah said, “This one is for my happiness. Indeed, women will call me blessed.” Because of this, she called him Asher.
И рече Лиа: блажена аз, яко ублажат мя жены. И прозва имя ему Асир.
14 Then Reuben, going out into the field at the time of the wheat harvest, found mandrakes. These he brought to his mother Leah. And Rachel said, “Give me a portion of your son’s mandrakes.”
Иде же Рувим в день жатвы пшеницы и обрете яблока мандрагорова на поли, и принесе я к Лии матери своей. Рече же Рахиль к Лии сестре своей: даждь ми от мандрагоров сына твоего.
15 She responded, “Does it seem like such a small matter to you, that you have usurped from me my husband, unless you will also take my son’s mandrakes?” Rachel said, “He will sleep with you this night because of your son’s mandrakes.”
Рече же Лиа: не доволно ли тебе, яко взяла еси мужа моего? Еда и мандрагоры сына моего возмеши? Рече же Рахиль: не тако: да будет сея нощи с тобою за мандрагоры сына твоего.
16 And when Jacob returned from the field in the evening, Leah went out to meet him, and she said, “You will enter to me, because I have hired you for the reward of my son’s mandrakes.” And he slept with her that night.
Прииде же Иаков с поля в вечер, и изыде Лиа во сретение ему и рече: ко мне внидеши днесь: наяла бо тя есмь за мандрагоры сына моего. И бысть с нею тоя нощи.
17 And God heard her prayers. And she conceived and bore a fifth son.
И послуша Бог Лию, и заченши роди Иакову сына пятаго.
18 And she said, “God has given a reward to me, because I gave my handmaid to my husband.” And she called his name Issachar.
И рече Лиа: даде ми Бог мзду мою, зане дах рабу мою мужу моему. И прозва имя ему Иссахар, еже есть мзда.
19 Conceiving again, Leah bore a sixth son.
И зачат еще Лиа и роди сына шестаго Иакову.
20 And she said: “God has endowed me with a good dowry. And now, at this turn, my husband will be with me, because I have conceived six sons for him.” And therefore she called his name Zebulun.
И рече Лиа: дарова ми Бог дар добр в нынешнее время: возлюбит мя муж мой: родих бо ему шесть сынов. И прозва имя ему Завулон.
21 After him, she bore a daughter, named Dinah.
И посем роди дщерь, и прозва имя ей Дина.
22 The Lord, likewise remembering Rachel, heeded her and opened her womb.
Помяну же Бог Рахиль, и услыша ю Бог, и отверзе утробу ея:
23 And she conceived and bore a son, saying, “God has taken away my reproach.”
и заченши, роди Иакову сына. И рече Рахиль: отя Бог укоризну мою.
24 And she called his name Joseph, saying, “The Lord has added to me another son.”
И нарече имя ему Иосиф, глаголющи: да придаст ми Бог сына другаго.
25 But when Joseph was born, Jacob said to his father-in-law: “Release me, so that I may return to my native country and to my land.
Бысть же яко роди Рахиль Иосифа, рече Иаков Лавану: отпусти мя, да иду на место мое и в землю мою:
26 Give me my wives, and my children, for whom I have served you, so that I may depart. You know the servitude with which I have served you.”
отдаждь ми жены моя и дети моя, ихже ради работах тебе, да отиду: ты бо веси работу, юже работах ти.
27 Laban said to him: “May I find grace in your sight. I have learned by experience that God has blessed me because of you.
Рече же ему Лаван: аще обретох благодать пред тобою: усмотрих бо, яко благослови мя Бог пришествием твоим:
28 Choose your wages, which I will give you.”
раздели мзду свою у мене, и дам ти.
29 But he responded: “You know how I have served you, and how great your possession became in my hands.
Рече же Иаков: ты веси, яже работах тебе, и колико бе скота твоего у мене:
30 You had little before I came to you, and now you have achieved riches. And the Lord has blessed you since my arrival. It is just, therefore, that at some time I also should provide for my own house.”
мало бо бе елико твоего у мене и возрасте во множество: и благослови тя Господь пришествием моим: ныне убо когда сотворю и аз себе дом?
31 And Laban said, “What shall I give to you?” But he said, “I want nothing. But if you will do what I ask, I will feed and guard your sheep again.
И рече к нему Лаван: что ти дам? Рече же ему Иаков: не даси ми ничтоже: аще сотвориши ми глагол сей, паки пасти имам овцы твоя, и сохраню:
32 Go around through all your flocks and separate all the sheep of variegated or spotted fleece; and whatever will be darkened or blemished or variegated, as much among the sheep as among the goats, will be my wages.
оыди вся овцы твоя ныне и разлучи оттуду всякую овцу пелесую во овцах, и всяку беловатую и пеструю в козах, будет ми мзда (и будет мое):
33 And my justice will answer on my behalf tomorrow, when the time of settlement arrives before you. And all that is not variegated or blemished or darkened, as much among the sheep as among the goats, these will prove me to be a thief.”
и послушает мене правда моя во утрешний день, яко есть мзда моя пред тобою: все еже аще не будет пестро и беловатое в козах, и пелесо во овцах, за украденое будет мною.
34 And Laban said, “I hold favor for this request.”
Рече же ему Лаван: буди по словеси твоему.
35 And on that day he separated the she-goats, and the sheep, and the he-goats, and the rams with variegations or with blemishes. But every one of the flock which was of one color, that is, of white or of black fleece, he delivered into the hands of his sons.
И разлучи в той день козлы пестрыя и беловатыя, и вся козы пестрыя и беловатыя, и все еже бе пелесо во овцах, и все еже бяше белое в них: и даде в руце сыном своим:
36 And he established a distance of three days journey between himself and his son-in-law, who pastured the remainder of his flock.
и разстави путем трех дний, и между ими и между Иаковом: Иаков же пасяше овцы Лавановы оставшыяся.
37 Then Jacob, taking green branches of poplar, and almond, and sycamore trees, debarked them in part. And when the bark was pulled off, in the parts that were stripped, there appeared whiteness, yet the parts that were left whole, remained green. And so, in this way the color was made variegated.
Взя же Иаков себе жезл стиракинов зеленый, и орехов, и яворовый: и острога я Иаков пестрением белым, сострогая кору: являшеся же на жезлах белое, еже острога, пестро.
38 And he placed them in the troughs, where the water was poured out, so that when the flocks had arrived to drink, they would have the branches before their eyes, and in their sight they might conceive.
И положи жезлы, яже острога, в поилных корытех воды: да егда приидут овцы пити, пред жезлы пришедшым им пити, зачнут овцы по жезлом:
39 And it happened that, in the very heat of joining together, the sheep looked upon the branches, and they bore the blemished and the variegated, those speckled with diverse color.
и зачинаху овцы по жезлом, и раждаху овцы беловатыя и пестрыя и пепеловидныя пестрыя.
40 And Jacob divided the flock, and he set the branches in the troughs before the eyes of the rams. Now whatever was white or black belonged to Laban, but, in truth, the others belonged to Jacob, for the flocks were dispersed among one another.
Агницы же разлучи Иаков и постави прямо овцам овна беловатаго и всякое пестрое во агнцах: и разлучи себе стада по себе, и не смеси сих со овцами Лавановыми.
41 Therefore, when the first to arrive were climbing on the ewes, Jacob placed the branches in the troughs of water before the eyes of the rams and the sheep, so that they might conceive while they were gazing upon them.
Бысть же во время, в неже зачинаху овцы во чреве приемлющя, положи Иаков жезлы пред овцами в корытех, еже зачинати им по жезлом:
42 Yet when the late arrivals and the last to conceive were let in, he did not place these. And so those that arrived late became Laban’s, and those that arrived first became Jacob’s.
егда же раждаху овцы, не полагаше: быша же неназнаменаныя Лавановы, а знаменаныя Иаковли.
43 And the man was enriched beyond limit, and he had many flocks, women servants and men servants, camels and donkeys.
И разбогате человек зело зело: и быша ему скоти мнози, и волове, и раби, и рабыни, и велблюды, и ослы.
