1 T hen Jacob went on his way and came to the land of the people of the east.

Yacquubna sodcaalkiisii buu iska sii watay, oo wuxuu yimid dalkii reer bari.

2 H e looked up and saw a well in the field where three flocks of sheep were lying beside it. The people gave water to the flocks from that well. The stone covering the top of the well was large.

Kolkaasuu wax fiiriyey, oo wuxuu arkay ceel berrinka ku dhex yaal, oo waxaa joogay saddex qaybood oo ido ah oo agtiisa jiifjiifa, maxaa yeelay, ceelkaasay idaha ka waraabin jireen. Dhagaxa ceelka afkiisa saarnaana aad buu u weynaa.

3 W hen all the flocks were gathered there, the men would roll the stone from the top of the well. Then after giving water to the sheep, they would put the stone again in its place on top of the well.

Oo halkaasaa idaha oo dhan lagu soo ururin jiray: kolkaasay dhagaxa ceelka afkiisa ka rogi jireen, oo idaha ka waraabin jireen, markaasay mar labaad dhagaxa ceelka afkiisa saari jireen oo ku celin jireen meeshiisii.

4 J acob said to them, “My brothers, where are you from?” They said, “We are from Haran.”

Markaasaa Yacquub ku yidhi, Walaalahayow, xaggaad ka timaadeen? Iyana waxay yidhaahdeen, Waxaannu ka nimid Haaraan.

5 H e said to them, “Do you know Laban the son of Nahor?” They said, “We know him.”

Markaasuu ku yidhi, Ma taqaaniin Laabaan oo ah ina Naaxoor? Markaasay ku yidhaahdeen, Waannu naqaan.

6 H e asked them, “Is he well?” They said, “He is well. And see, his daughter Rachel is coming with the sheep.”

Markaasuu ku yidhi, Ma nabad qabaa? Iyana waxay yidhaahdeen, Haah, wuu nabad qabaa. Waa taas gabadhiisii Raaxeel idaha soo kaxaynaysa.

7 J acob said, “See, the sun is still high. It is not time for the flocks to be gathered. Give water to the sheep, and return them to their field.”

Oo wuxuu ku yidhi iyagii, Bal eega, weli waa maalin weyn, mana aha goortii xoolaha la soo wada ururin lahaa. Idaha waraabiya, oo kaxeeya oo daajiya.

8 B ut they said, “We cannot, until all the flocks are gathered and they roll the stone from the top of the well. Then we will give the sheep water.”

Iyana waxay yidhaahdeen, Ma yeeli karno taas, jeeray idoyowga oo dhammu isu yimaadaan, oo dhagaxa ceelka afkiisa laga rogo; markaasaannu idaha waraabinaynaa.

9 H e was still talking with them when Rachel came with her father’s sheep, for she cared for them.

Oo intuu weli la hadlayay ayaa Raaxeel keentay idihii aabbeheed, waayo, iyadaa ilaalin jirtay.

10 W hen Jacob saw Rachel the daughter of his mother’s brother Laban, and the sheep of his mother’s brother Laban, Jacob went near and rolled the stone from the top of the well. And he gave water to the flock of his mother’s brother Laban.

Oo Yacquub markuu arkay Raaxeel oo ahayd gabadhii abtigiis Laabaan, iyo idihii abtigiis Laabaan, ayuu u dhowaaday, oo dhagaxii ka rogay ceelka afkiisa, oo uu waraabiyey idihii abtigiis Laabaan.

11 T hen Jacob kissed Rachel and began to cry for joy.

Markaasuu Yacquub Raaxeel dhunkaday, wuuna qayliyey oo ooyay.

12 J acob told Rachel that he was of her father’s family, the son of Rebekah. And she ran and told her father.

Yacquubna wuxuu Raaxeel u sheegay inuu yahay aabbeheed xigaalkiis, oo uu yahay wiilkii Rebeqah; kolkaasay orodday oo u sheegtay aabbeheed.

13 W hen Laban heard the news of his sister’s son Jacob, he ran to meet him. He put his arms around him and kissed him, and brought him to his house. Then Jacob told Laban all these things.

Oo Laabaan markuu maqlay warkii Yacquub oo ahaa wiilkii walaashiis ayuu ku orday inuu ka hor tago, markaasuu isku duubay, oo dhunkaday, oo uu gurigiisii keenay. Isna wuxuu Laabaan u sheegay waxyaalahan oo dhan. Guurkii Yacquub Ee Lee'ah Iyo Raaxeel

14 L aban said to him, “For sure you are my bone and my flesh.” And Jacob stayed with him a month. Jacob Works for Laban

Laabaanna wuxuu ku yidhi isagii, Hubaal waxaad tahay laftayda iyo jidhkayga. Wuxuuna la joogay isagii intii bil ah.

15 T hen Laban said to Jacob, “Because you are one of my family, should you serve me for nothing? Tell me, what do you want to be paid?”

Markaasaa Laabaan Yacquub ku yidhi, Walaalkayga aad tahay aawadeed ma habboon tahay inaad mushahaarola'aan iigu shaqaysid? Bal ii sheeg, mushahaaradaadu maxay ahaan doontaa?

16 N ow Laban had two daughters. The name of the older one was Leah, and the name of the younger one was Rachel.

Laabaanna wuxuu lahaa laba gabdhood: midda weyn magaceedu wuxuu ahaa Lee'ah, tan yar magaceeduna wuxuu ahaa Raaxeel.

17 L eah’s eyes were weak. But Rachel was beautiful in body and face.

Lee'ahna way indha darnayd, laakiinse Raaxeel way quruxsanayd, suurad wanaagsanna way lahayd.

18 J acob loved Rachel. So he said, “I will serve you seven years for your younger daughter Rachel.”

Yacquubna wuxuu jeclaa Raaxeel; markaasuu yidhi, Toddoba sannadood baan kuugu shaqayn gabadhaada yar oo Raaxeel ah.

19 L aban said, “It is better that I give her to you than to another man. Stay with me.”

Laabaanna wuxuu yidhi, Waa wanaagsan tahay inaan adiga ku siiyo intii aan iyada nin kale siin lahaa, ee ila joog.

20 S o Jacob worked seven years for Rachel. It was only like a few days to him, because of his love for her.

Yacquubna toddoba sannadood buu u shaqaynayay Raaxeel aawadeed; waxayna la ahaayeen maalmo yar, waana jacaylkii uu iyada u qabay aawadiis.

21 T hen Jacob said to Laban, “Give me my wife so I may go in to her. For my time is finished.”

Yacquubna wuxuu Laabaan ku yidhi, Maalmahaygii way dhammaystirmeen; ee naagtayda i sii, si aan ugu tago iyada.

22 A nd Laban gathered all the men of the place together, and made a special supper.

Markaasuu Laabaan soo ururiyey nimankii meeshaas joogay oo dhan, oo wuxuu sameeyey diyaafad.

23 B ut in the evening he took his daughter Leah to him. Jacob went in to her.

Oo waxay noqotay inuu fiidkii kaxeeyey gabadhiisii Lee'ah, oo uu u geeyey isagii; isna wuu u tegey iyadii.

24 L aban also took Zilpah, a woman who served him, and gave her to his daughter Leah, to serve her.

Laabaanna wuxuu gabadhiisii Lee'ah siiyey Silfah oo isaga addoon u ahayd inay iyada addoon u noqoto.

25 W hen the morning came, Jacob saw that it was Leah. He said to Laban, “What have you done to me? Did I not work for you for Rachel? Why have you fooled me?”

Yacquubna wuxuu aroortii arkay inay tahay Lee'ah, oo wuxuu Laabaan ku yidhi, Waa maxay waxan aad igu samaysay? Miyaanan Raaxeel kuugu shaqaynayn? De maxaad haddaba ii khiyaanaysay?

26 L aban said, “It is not allowed in our country to give the younger in marriage before the first-born.

Laabaanna wuxuu yidhi, Dhulkayaga sidaas laguma sameeyo in tan yar curadda la dhaafiyo.

27 C omplete the wedding week of this one. Then we will give you the other one also if you work for me seven years more.”

Bal tan toddobaadkeeda dhammee, tan kalena waxaannu kugu siin doonnaa shuqulka aad toddoba sannadood oo kale ii shaqayn doontid.

28 J acob did so and completed her wedding week. And Laban gave him his daughter Rachel as his wife.

Yacquubna sidii buu yeelay, toddobaadkeediina wuu dhammeeyey. Markaasuu Laabaan Yacquub siiyey gabadhiisii Raaxeel inay naag u noqoto.

29 L aban also took Bilhah, a woman who served him, and gave her to his daughter Rachel, to serve her.

Laabaanna wuxuu gabadhiisii Raaxeel siiyey Bilhah oo isaga addoon u ahayd inay iyada addoon u noqoto.

30 S o Jacob went in to Rachel also. He loved Rachel more than Leah. And he worked for Laban seven years more. Jacob’s Children

Oo Raaxeelna wuu u tegey, oo isna Raaxeel aad buu uga jeclaa Lee'ah, toddoba sannadood oo kalena wuu u shaqeeyey isaga. Ilmihii Yacquub

31 W hen the Lord saw that Leah was not loved, He made her able to give birth. But Rachel could not give birth.

Rabbiguna wuxuu arkay in Lee'ah la nebcaaday, markaasuu maxalkeedii furay; laakiinse Raaxeel waxay ahayd madhalays.

32 L eah was able to have a child and she gave birth to a son. She gave him the name Reuben. For she said, “The Lord has seen my trouble. Now my husband will love me.”

Lee'ahna way uuraysatay, oo waxay dhashay wiil, magiciisiina waxay u bixisay Ruubeen, oo waxay tidhi, Sababtu waxaa weeye inuu Rabbigu dhibaatadayda arkay, oo haatan ninkaygu wuu i jeclaan doonaa.

33 T hen she was going to have another child and she gave birth to a son. She said, “The Lord has given me this son also, because He has heard that I am not loved.” So she gave him the name Simeon.

Oo haddana way uuraysatay mar labaad, waxayna dhashay wiil, oo waxay tidhi, Rabbigu waa maqlay in lay nebcaaday, oo haddaba taas aawadeed ayuu ii siiyey wiilkanna; magiciisiina waxay u bixisay Simecoon.

34 S he was going to have another child and she gave birth to a son. She said, “Now this time my husband will be joined to me because I have given birth to his three sons.” So she gave him the name Levi.

Oo haddana mar kalay uuraysatay, oo waxay dhashay wiil, waxayna tidhi, Haatan ninkayga ayaa ila jiri doona, maxaa yeelay, saddex wiil baan u dhalay isaga; sidaas daraaddeed magiciisii waxaa loo bixiyey Laawi.

35 S he was going to have another child and she gave birth to a son. And she said, “This time I will praise the Lord.” So she gave him the name of Judah. Then she stopped giving birth.

Oo haddana way uuraysatay, oo waxay dhashay wiil; oo waxay tidhi, Haatan Rabbigaan ammaani, sidaas daraaddeed waxay magiciisii u bixisay Yahuudah; wayna dhalmo daysay.
