Genesi (تكوين) 30

SMITH VAN DYKE	NEW AMERICAN BIBLE
1 فلما رأت راحيل انها لم تلد ليعقوب غارت راحيل من اختها وقالت ليعقوب هب لي بنين. وإلا فانا اموت.	1 When Rachel saw that she failed to bear children to Jacob, she became envious of her sister. She said to Jacob, "Give me children or I shall die!"
2 فحمي غضب يعقوب على راحيل وقال ألعلي مكان الله الذي منع عنك ثمرة البطن.	2 In anger Jacob retorted, "Can I take the place of God, who has denied you the fruit of the womb?"
3 فقالت هوذا جاريتي بلهة. ادخل عليها فتلد على ركبتيّ وأرزق انا ايضا منها بنين.	3 She replied, "Here is my maidservant Bilhah. Have intercourse with her, and let her give birth on my knees, so that I too may have offspring, at least through her."
4 . فاعطته بلهة جاريتها زوجة. فدخل عليها يعقوب	4 So she gave him her maidservant Bilhah as a consort, and Jacob had intercourse with her.
5 . فحبلت بلهة وولدت ليعقوب ابنا	5 When Bilhah conceived and bore a son,
6 فقالت راحيل قد قضى لي الله وسمع ايضا لصوتي واعطاني ابنا. لذلك دعت اسمه دانا.	6 Rachel said, "God has vindicated me; indeed he has heeded my plea and given me a son." Therefore she named him Dan.
7 وحبلت ايضا بلهة جارية راحيل وولدت ابنا ثانيا ليعقوب.	7 Rachel's maidservant Bilhah conceived again and bore a second son,
8 فقالت راحيل مصارعات الله قد صارعت اختي وغلبت. فدعت اسمه نفتالي	8 and Rachel said, "I engaged in a fateful struggle with my sister, and I prevailed." So she named him Naphtali.
9 ولما رأت ليئة انها توقّفت عن الولادة اخذت زلفة جاريتها واعطتها ليعقوب زوجة.	9 When Leah saw that she had ceased to bear children, she gave her maidservant Zilpah to Jacob as a consort.
10 فولدت زلفة جارية ليئة ليعقوب ابنا.	10 So Jacob had intercourse with Zilpah, and she conceived and bore a son.
11 فقالت ليئة بسعد. فدعت اسمه جادا.	11 Leah then said, "What good luck!" So she named him Gad.
12 وولدت زلفة جارية ليئة ابنا ثانيا ليعقوب.	12 Then Leah's maidservant Zilpah bore a second son to Jacob;
13 فقالت ليئة بغبطتي لانه تغبطني بنات. فدعت اسمه اشير	13 and Leah said, "What good fortune!"--meaning, "Women call me fortunate." So she named him Asher.
14 ومضى رأوبين في ايام حصاد الحنطة فوجد لفّاحا في الحقل وجاء به الى ليئة امه. فقالت راحيل لليئة اعطني من لفّاح ابنك.	14 One day, during the wheat harvest, when Reuben was out in the field, he came upon some mandrakes which he brought home to his mother Leah. Rachel asked Leah, "Please let me have some of your son's mandrakes."
15 فقالت لها أقليل انك اخذت رجلي فتاخذين لفّاح ابني ايضا. فقالت راحيل اذا يضطجع معك الليلة عوضا عن لفّاح ابنك.	15 Leah replied, "Was it not enough for you to take away my husband, that you must now take my son's mandrakes too?" "Very well, then!" Rachel answered. "In exchange for your son's mandrakes, Jacob may lie with you tonight."
16 فلما اتى يعقوب من الحقل في المساء خرجت ليئة لملاقاته وقالت اليّ تجيء لاني قد استأجرتك بلفّاح ابني. فاضطجع معها تلك الليلة.	16 That evening, when Jacob came home from the fields, Leah went out to meet him. "You are now to come in with me," she told him, "because I have paid for you with my son's mandrakes." So that night he slept with her,
17 وسمع الله لليئة فحبلت وولدت ليعقوب ابنا خامسا.	17 and God heard her prayer; she conceived and bore a fifth son to Jacob.
18 فقالت ليئة قد اعطاني الله اجرتي لاني اعطيت جاريتي لرجلي. فدعت اسمه يسّاكر.	18 Leah then said, "God has given me my reward for having let my husband have my maidservant"; so she named him Issachar.
19 وحبلت ايضا ليئة وولدت ابنا سادسا ليعقوب.	19 Leah conceived again and bore a sixth son to Jacob;
20 فقالت ليئة قد وهبني الله هبة حسنة. الآن يساكنني رجلي لاني ولدت له ستة بنين. فدعت اسمه زبولون.	20 and she said, "God has brought me a precious gift. This time my husband will offer me presents, now that I have borne him six sons"; so she named him Zebulun.
21 ثم ولدت ابنة ودعت اسمها دينة	21 Finally, she gave birth to a daughter, and she named her Dinah.
22 وذكر الله راحيل وسمع لها الله وفتح رحمها.	22 Then God remembered Rachel; he heard her prayer and made her fruitful.
23 فحبلت وولدت ابنا. فقالت قد نزع الله عاري.	23 She conceived and bore a son, and she said, "God has removed my disgrace."
24 ودعت اسمه يوسف قائلة يزيدني الرب ابنا آخر	24 So she named him Joseph, meaning, "May the LORD add another son to this one for me!"
25 وحدث لما ولدت راحيل يوسف ان يعقوب قال للابان اصرفني لاذهب الى مكاني والى ارضي.	25 After Rachel gave birth to Joseph, Jacob said to Laban: "Give me leave to go to my homeland.
26 اعطني نسائي واولادي الذين خدمتك بهم فاذهب. لانك انت تعلم خدمتي التي خدمتك.	26 Let me have my wives, for whom I served you, and my children, too, that I may depart. You know very well the service that I have rendered you."
27 فقال له لابان ليتني اجد نعمة في عينيك. قد تفاءلت فباركني الرب بسببك.	27 Laban answered him: "If you will please. . . . "I have learned through divination that it is because of you that God has blessed me.
28 وقال عيّن لي اجرتك فاعطيك.	28 So," he continued, "state what wages you want from me, and I will pay them."
29 فقال له انت تعلم ماذا خدمتك وماذا صارت مواشيك معي.	29 Jacob replied: "You know what work I did for you and how well your livestock fared under my care;
30 لان ما كان لك قبلي قليل فقد اتّسع الى كثير وباركك الرب في اثري. والآن متى اعمل انا ايضا لبيتي.	30 the little you had before I came has grown into very much, since the LORD'S blessings came upon you in my company. Therefore I should now do something for my own household as well."
31 فقال ماذا اعطيك. فقال يعقوب لا تعطيني شيئا. ان صنعت لي هذا الامر اعود ارعى غنمك واحفظها.	31 "What should I pay you?" Laban asked. Jacob answered: "You do not have to pay me anything outright. I will again pasture and tend your flock, if you do this one thing for me:
32 اجتاز بين غنمك كلها اليوم. وأعزل انت منها كل شاة رقطاء وبلقاء وكل شاة سوداء بين الخرفان وبلقاء ورقطاء بين المعزى. فيكون مثل ذلك اجرتي	32 go through your whole flock today and remove from it every dark animal among the sheep and every spotted or speckled one among the goats. Only such animals shall be my wages.
33 ويشهد فيّ برّي يوم غد اذا جئت من اجل اجرتي قدامك. كل ما ليس ارقط او ابلق بين المعزى واسود بين الخرفان فهو مسروق عندي.	33 In the future, whenever you check on these wages of mine, let my honesty testify against me: any animal in my possession that is not a speckled or spotted goat, or a dark sheep, got there by theft!"
34 فقال لابان هوذا ليكن بحسب كلامك.	34 "Very well," agreed Laban. "Let it be as you say."
35 فعزل في ذلك اليوم التيوس المخطّطة والبلقاء وكل العناز الرقطاء والبلقاء. كل ما فيه بياض وكل اسود بين الخرفان. ودفعها الى ايدي بنيه.	35 That same day Laban removed the streaked and spotted he-goats and all the speckled and spotted she-goats, all those with some white on them, as well as the fully dark-colored sheep; these he left. . . in charge of his sons.
36 وجعل مسيرة ثلاثة ايام بينه وبين يعقوب. وكان يعقوب يرعى غنم لابان الباقية	36 Then he put a three days' journey between himself and Jacob, while Jacob continued to pasture the rest of Laban's flock.
37 فأخذ يعقوب لنفسه قضبانا خضرا من لبنى ولوز ودلب وقشر فيها خطوطا بيضا كاشطا عن البياض الذي على القضبان.	37 Jacob, however, got some fresh shoots of poplar, almond and plane trees, and he made white stripes in them by peeling off the bark down to the white core of the shoots.
38 واوقف القضبان التي قشرها في الاجران في مساقي الماء حيث كانت الغنم تجيء لتشرب. تجاه الغنم. لتتوحم عند مجيئها لتشرب.	38 The rods that he had thus peeled he then set upright in the watering troughs, so that they would be in front of the animals that drank from the troughs. When the animals were in heat as they came to drink,
39 فتوحّمت الغنم عند القضبان وولدت الغنم مخطّطات ورقطا وبلقا.	39 the goats mated by the rods, and so they brought forth streaked, speckled and spotted kids.
40 وافرز يعقوب الخرفان وجعل وجوه الغنم الى المخطّط وكل اسود بين غنم لابان. وجعل له قطعانا وحده ولم يجعلها مع غنم لابان.	40 The sheep, on the other hand, Jacob kept apart, and he set these animals to face the streaked or fully dark-colored animals of Laban. Thus he produced special flocks of his own, which he did not put with Laban's flock.
41 وحدث كلما توحّمت الغنم القوية ان يعقوب وضع القضبان امام عيون الغنم في الاجران. لتتوحّم بين القضبان.	41 Moreover, whenever the hardier animals were in heat, Jacob would set the rods in the troughs in full view of these animals, so that they mated by the rods;
42 وحين استضعفت الغنم لم يضعها. فصارت الضعيفة للابان والقوية ليعقوب.	42 but with the weaker animals he would not put the rods there. So the feeble animals would go to Laban, but the sturdy ones to Jacob.
43 فاتّسع الرجل كثيرا جدا. وكان له غنم كثير وجوار وعبيد وجمال وحمير	43 Thus the man grew increasingly prosperous, and he came to own not only large flocks but also male and female servants and camels and asses.
