< Genesis 30 >

1 Rachel realized that she was not becoming pregnant and giving birth to any children for Jacob. So she became jealous of her older sister, Leah, because Leah had given birth to four sons. She said to Jacob, “Enable me to become pregnant and give birth to children. If you do not do that, I [think I will]!”
Idi nakita ni Raquel a saanna a maipaayan ni Jacob iti annak, inapalanna ti kabsatna. Kinunana kenni Jacob, “Ikkannak kadagiti annak, ta no saan ket matayak.”
2 Jacob became angry with Rachel and said, “(I am not God!/Am I God?) [RHQ] He is the one who has prevented you from becoming pregnant!”
Nakaunget ni Jacob kenni Raquel. Kinunana, “Addaak kadi iti lugar ti Dios a manglaplapped kenka a maaddaan kadagiti annak?”
3 Then she said, “Look, here is my female slave, Bilhah. (Sleep with/Have sex with) [EUP] her, so that she may become pregnant and give birth to children for me. In that way it will be as though (I have children/her children are mine).”
Kinunana, “Kitaem, daydiay ni Bilha nga adipenko. Makikaiddaka kenkuana, ta bareng no makaanak para kaniak, ket maaddaanakto kadagiti annak babaen kenkuana.”
4 So she gave him her slave, Bilhah, to be another wife for him, and Jacob had sex [EUP] with her.
Inted ngarud ni Raquel kenni Jacob ni Bilha nga adipenna kas maysa nga asawa, ket nakikaidda ni Jacob kenkuana.
5 She became pregnant and bore Jacob a son.
Nagsikog ni Bilha ket naganak iti lalaki para kenni Jacob.
6 Rachel said, “God has (vindicated me/judged my case and has decided that what I have done is right). He has also heard my requests and has given me a son.” So she named him Dan, [which sounds like the Hebrew word that means ‘he judged’].
Ket kinuna ni Raquel, “Dinengngegnak ti Dios. Pudno a nangngegna ti timekko ket inikkannak iti anak a lalaki.” Isu a pinanagananna daytoy iti Dan.
7 Later, Rachel’s slave Bilhah became pregnant again and gave birth to another son for Jacob.
Nagsikog manen ni Bilha nga adipen ni Raquel ket naganak iti maikadua a lalaki para kenni Jacob.
8 Then Rachel said, “I have had a great struggle to have children like my older sister, but truly I have a son.” So she named him Naphtali, [which sounds like the Hebrew word that means ‘struggle’].
Kinuna ni Raquel, “Sipipinget a pannakigabbo ti pannakigabbok iti kabsatko ket nangabakak.” Pinanagananna daytoy iti Neftali.
9 When Leah realized that she was not becoming pregnant and giving birth to any more children, she took her female slave, Zilpah, and gave her to Jacob to be another wife for him.
Idi nakita ni Lea a nagsardengen isuna a maaddaan kadagiti annak, innalana ni Zilpa, nga adipenna, ket intedna kenni Jacob kas asawana.
10 Zilpah soon became pregnant and gave birth to a son for Jacob.
Naganak ni Zilpa nga adipen ni Lea iti lalaki para kenni Jacob.
11 Leah said, “I am truly fortunate!” So she named him Gad, [which means ‘fortunate’].
Kinuna ni Lea, “Kinagasat daytoy!” isu a pinanagananna daytoy iti Gad.
12 Later Leah’s slave, Zilpah, gave birth to another son for Jacob.
Kalpasanna, naganak ni Zilpa nga adipen ni Lea iti maikadua a lalaki para kenni Jacob.
13 Leah said, “Now I am very happy, and people will call me happy.” So she named him Asher, [which means ‘happy].’
Kinuna ni Lea, “Naragsakak! Ta awagandakto dagiti annak a babbai iti naragsak.” Isu a pinanagananna iti Aser.
14 When it was time to harvest wheat, Reuben went out into the fields and saw some (mandrakes/plants that women eat to help them to become pregnant). He brought some of them to his mother Leah. But Rachel saw them and said to Leah, “Please give me some of those plants that your son brought to you!”
Kadagiti aldaw ti panagapit iti trigo, napan ni Ruben iti talon ket nakasarak kadagiti mandragoras. Insangpetna dagitoy kenni nanangna a Lea. Ket kinuna ni Raquel kenni Lea, “Ikkannak iti sumagmamano kadagiti mandragoras ti anakmo.”
15 But Leah said to her, “No! (It was bad that you stole my husband!/Is it not bad enough that you stole my husband?) [RHQ] Now (are you going to take my son’s mandrake plants?/You want to take my son’s mandrake plants also, [so that you can become pregnant]!)” [RHQ] So Rachel said, “All right, Jacob can sleep with you tonight, if you give me some of your son’s mandrake plants.” [So Leah (agreed/gave her some)].
Kinuna ni Lea kenkuana, “Bassit laeng kadi a banag kenka, nga innalam ti asawak? Ita, kayatmo pay nga alaen dagiti mandragoras ti anakko?” Kinuna ni Raquel, “No kasta, makikaidda kenka ni Jacob inton rabii, kas kasukat dagiti mandragoras ti anakmo.”
16 When Jacob returned from the wheat fields that evening, Leah went out to meet him. She said, “You must sleep with me tonight, because I gave Rachel some of my son’s mandrakes [that enable women to become pregnant], to pay her for allowing us to do that.” So Jacob slept with her that night.
Simmangpet ni Jacob manipud iti talon iti rabii. Rimmuar ni Lea tapno sabtenna isuna ket kinunana, “Masapul a makikaiddaka kaniak ita a rabii, ta inabanganka babaen kadagiti mandragoras ti anakko.” Isu a nakikaidda ni Jacob kenni Lea iti dayta a rabii.
17 God answered Leah’s prayers, and she became pregnant and bore a fifth son to Jacob.
Dinengngeg ti Dios ni Lea, ket nagsikog ken naganak iti maikalima a lalaki para kenni Jacob.
18 Leah said, “God has rewarded me for giving my slave to my husband to be another wife for him.” So she named him Issachar, [which sounds like the Hebrew word that means ‘reward’].
Kinuna ni Lea, “Inikkannak ti Dios iti tangdanko, gapu ta intedko ti adipenko a babai iti asawak.” Pinanagananna daytoy iti Issacar.
19 Leah became pregnant again and bore a sixth son for Jacob.
Nagsikog manen ni Lea ket naganak iti maika-innem a lalaki para kenni Jacob.
20 Leah said, “God has given me a precious gift. (This time/Now) my husband will honor/respect me, because I have given birth to six sons for him.” So she named him Zebulon, [which sounds like the Hebrew word that means ‘accepted gift’].
Kinuna ni Lea, “Inikkannak ti Dios iti nasayaat a sagut. Raemennakon ita ti asawak, gapu ta naganakak iti innem a lallaki para kenkuana.” Pinanagananna daytoy iti Zabulon.
21 Later she gave birth to a daughter, and named her Dinah.
Kalpasanna, naganak iti babai ket pinanagananna iti Dina.
22 Then God thought about what Rachel wanted. He heard her prayers and enabled her to become pregnant.
Linagip ti Dios ni Raquel ket dinengngegna isuna. Pinagsikogna daytoy.
23 She became pregnant and gave birth to a son. She said, “God has caused that no longer will I be ashamed [for not having children].”
Nagsikog ket naganak iti lalaki. Kinunana, “Inikkat ti Dios ti pannakaibabainko.”
24 She named him Joseph, [which sounds like the Hebrew words that mean ‘may he give another’] and she said, ‘want Yahweh to give me another son.’
Pinanagananna daytoy iti Jose, a kunana, “Innayon ni Yahweh kaniak ti maysa pay nga anak a lalaki.”
25 After Rachel had given birth to Joseph, Jacob said to Laban, “Now allow me to quit working for you and let me return to my own land.
Kalpasan nga inyanak ni Raquel ni Jose, kinuna ni Jacob kenni Laban, “Ipalubosmo koma a pumanawak, tapno makaapanak iti bukodko a pagtaengan ken iti pagiliak.
26 You know the work that I have done for you [for a long time to get my wives]. So let me take my wives and my children, and leave.”
Itedmo kaniak dagiti assawak ken dagiti annakko a gapuanan ti panagserbik kenka, ket palubosannak a pumanaw, ta ammom ti panagserbi nga impaayko kenka.”
27 But Laban said to him, “If you are pleased with me, stay here, because I have found out by performing a magic ritual that Yahweh has blessed me because of what you have done for me.
Kinuna ni Laban kenkuana, “No ita ket nakabirokak iti pabor kadagita matam, aguray, gapu ta natakkuatak a binendisionannak ti Dios gapu kenka.”
28 Tell me what you want me to pay you for continuing to work for me, and that is what I will pay you.”
Ket kinunana, “Naganam dagiti tangdanmo, ket bayadak dagitoy.”
29 Jacob replied, “You know how I have worked for you, and you know that your livestock have increased greatly as I have taken care of them.
Kinuna ni Jacob kenkuana, “Ammom no kasano iti pinagserbik kenka, ken no kasano nga immadu dagiti arbanmo kaniak.
30 You had only a few animals before I came here. But now you have very many, and Yahweh has caused them to increase greatly in number wherever I have taken them. But now I need to start taking care of the needs of my own family.”
Ta addaanka laeng iti bassit sakbay nga immayak, ket immadu dagitoy iti kasta unay. Binendisionannaka ti Dios iti sadinoman a nagtrabahoak. Ita, kaanoakto ngay met a mangisabet para iti bukodko a pagtaengan?”
31 Laban replied, “What do you want me to give you?” Jacob replied, “I do not want you to pay me anything. But if you will do this one thing for me, I will continue to take care of your flocks and protect them.
Isu a kinuna ni Laban, “Ania ti ibayadko kenka?” Kinuna ni Jacob, “Saannak nga ikkan iti aniaman. No aramidem daytoy a banag para kaniak, pakanek manen dagiti arbanmo ken aywanak dagitoy.
32 Allow me to go and look at all of your flocks today and remove from them all the speckled sheep, all the spotted sheep, and every dark-colored lamb, all the goats that are speckled, and all the goats that are spotted, [and keep them for myself]. They will be my wages.
Palubosannak koma laeng a mapan kadagiti amin nga arbanmo ita nga aldaw, ket ikkatek dagiti turikturikan ken labang a karnero, ken tunggal nangisit kadagiti karnero, ken dagiti labang ken turikturikan kadagiti kalding. Dagitoyto dagiti tangdanko.”
33 In that way, in the future, you will be able to know whether I have been honest regarding what you have paid me. If any of my goats are neither speckled or spotted, or if any of my lambs are not dark-colored, you will know that I have stolen them from you.”
Ti kinapudnok ti mangpaneknekto kaniak iti masakbayan, inton umayka a mangsukimat kadagiti tangdanko. Tunggal maysa a saan a turikturikan ken labang kadagiti kalding, ken nangisit kadagiti karnero, no addaman ti masarakam kaniak, ket maibilangto a natakaw.”
34 Laban agreed and said, “Okay, we will do as you have said.”
Kinuna ni Laban, “Umanamongak. Maaramid koma ngarud, kas iti sinaom.”
35 But that same day Laban removed all the male goats that had black and white stripes on them or were spotted, and all the female goats that were speckled or spotted, all the goats that were partly white, and all the dark-colored lambs. He separated them and told his sons to take care of them.
Iti dayta nga aldaw, inikkat ni Laban dagiti amin a kalakian a kalding a garitan ken labang, ken amin a kabaian a kalding a turikturikan ken labang, amin nga adda purawna, ken amin a nangisit kadagiti karnero, ket impaimana kadagiti annakna a lallaki.
36 Then he took these flocks and walked a distance of three days, in order that he could be that far from Jacob. Jacob continued to take care of the rest of Laban’s flocks.
Nangikabil met ni Laban iti tallo nga aldaw a panagdaliasat iti nagbaetanda kenni Jacob. Intuloy ngarud ni Jacob nga inay-aywanan dagiti nabati kadagiti arban ni Laban.
37 Then Jacob cut some branches of (poplar, almond, and plane trees/three kinds of trees that had white wood). He peeled strips of bark from the branches, so that where the bark had been peeled off, the branches were light in color.
Nangala ni Jacob kadagiti kaputputed a sanga dagiti alamo, ken kadagiti almendras ken kadagiti kastanio a kayo, sana inikkat ti dadduma nga ukisda tapno kasla garitan ti langada.
38 Then he placed the peeled branches in the troughs where they put the water for the animals to drink, so that the branches would be in front of the flocks when they came to drink.
Kalpasanna, inkabilna dagiti sanga nga inukisanna iti sango dagiti arban, iti sango ti kahon a pagkargaan iti danum a pagin-inumanda. Agtitinnakbada no kasta nga umayda uminum.
39 The animals also mated in front of the branches, and eventually they gave birth to animals that were speckled, or to animals that were spotted, or to animals that had black and white stripes on them.
Agtitinnakba dagiti ayup iti sango dagiti sanga, ket naganak dagiti arban iti garitan, turikturikan, ken labang nga urbon.
40 Furthermore, Jacob separated the female sheep in his flock from the other sheep and goats in Laban’s flock. And when his female sheep mated, he made them look toward the animals that belonged to Laban that had black and white stripes on them, and the dark-colored animals. He did that so that the female sheep would give birth to animals that were striped or dark-colored. By doing that, he made bigger flocks for himself, and he kept them separate from Laban’s flocks.
Insina ni Jacob dagiti kabaian a karnero ket inturongna dagiti rupada kadagiti garitan nga ayup ken amin a nangisit a karnero iti arban ni Laban. Ket insinana dagiti arbanna ken saanna nga inlaok kadagiti arban ni Laban.
41 In addition, whenever the stronger female sheep were ready to mate, Jacob put some of those peeled branches in the troughs in front of them, so that they would mate in front of the branches.
Tunggal agmaya dagiti napipigsa a karnero iti arban, ikabil ni Jacob dagiti sanga iti pagin-inumanda iti sangoanan dagiti arban, tapno agtitinnakbada iti ayan dagiti sanga.
42 But when weak animals were ready to mate, he did not put the branches in their troughs. So the weak ones became part of Laban’s flock, and the strong ones became part of Jacob’s flock.
Ngem no kasta nga umay dagiti nakakapsut nga ayup iti arban, saanna nga ikabil dagiti sanga iti sangoananda. Kukua ngarud ni Laban dagiti nakakapsut nga ayup, ket kukua ni Jacob dagiti napipigsa nga ayup.
43 As a result, Jacob became very rich. He owned many large flocks of sheep and goats, and many male and female slaves, and many camels and donkeys.
Rimmang-ay iti kasta unay ti lalaki. Addaan isuna kadagiti adu nga arban, adipen a babbai ken adipen a lallaki, ken kadagiti kamelio ken asno.
