1 R aaxeelna markay aragtay inaanay Yacquub carruur u dhalin, ayay walaasheed ka masayrtay; oo waxay Yacquub ku tidhi, Carruur i sii, haddii kalese waan dhiman.

When Rachel saw that she had not given birth to any children for Jacob, she became jealous of her sister. She said to Jacob, “Give me children, or else I am going to die!”

2 M arkaasaa Yacquub aad ugu cadhooday Raaxeel; oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Ma anigaa ku jira meeshii Ilaaha midhihii maxalka kuu diiday?

Then Jacob became angry with Rachel. He said, “Am I taking God’s place, Who has kept you from giving birth?”

3 M arkaasay tidhi, Bal eeg addoontayda Bilhah, u tag iyada, inay jilbahayga ku dul dhasho, oo aan anna carruur ku helo iyada.

Then she said, “Here is Bilhah, the woman who serves me. Go in to her, and let her give birth for me. Even I may have children through her.”

4 M arkaasay isagii siisay addoonteedii Bilhah inuu naag ka dhigto; Yacquubna wuu u tegey iyadii.

So she gave Bilhah to him for a wife, the woman who served her. And Jacob went in to her.

5 B ilhahna way uuraysatay, oo Yacquub wiil bay u dhashay.

Bilhah was going to have a child and she gave birth to a son.

6 R aaxeelna waxay tidhi, Ilaah waa i xukumay, codkaygiina wuu maqlay, oo wiil buu i siiyey. Sidaas daraaddeed magiciisii waxay u bixisay Daan.

Then Rachel said, “God has done the right thing for me. He has heard my voice and has given me a son.” So she gave him the name Dan.

7 B ilhah oo ahayd addoontii Raaxeel mar kalay uuraysatay, oo waxay Yacquub u dhashay wiil labaad.

Bilhah, the woman who served Rachel, was going to have another child. And she gave birth to another son for Jacob.

8 O o Raaxeelna waxay tidhi, Legdan aad u weyn baan walaashay la legdamay, waanan ka adkaaday. Magiciisiina waxay u bixisay Naftaali.

So Rachel said, “I have fought a hard fight with my sister, and I have won.” She gave him the name Naphtali.

9 L ee'ahna markay aragtay inay dhalmo daysay ayay kaxaysay addoonteedii Silfah, oo waxay siisay Yacquub inuu naag ka dhigto.

Leah saw that she had stopped giving birth. So she took Zilpah, the woman who served her, and gave her to Jacob as a wife.

10 L ee'ah addoonteedii Silfah ahaydna Yacquub wiil bay u dhashay.

And a son was born to Jacob through Zilpah, the woman who served Leah.

11 O o Lee'ahna waxay tidhi, Ayaan weynaa! Magiciisiina waxay u bixisay Gaad.

Then Leah said, “Good things have happened to me!” So she gave him the name Gad.

12 L ee'ah addoonteedii Silfah ahaydna wiil labaad bay u dhashay Yacquub.

A second son was born to Jacob through Zilpah, the woman who served Leah.

13 O o Lee'ahna waxay tidhi, Waan faraxsanahay! waayo, naaguhu waxay iigu yeedhi doonaan tan faraxsan. Magiciisiina waxay u bixisay Aasheer.

Then Leah said, “I am happy! For women will say that I am happy.” So she gave him the name Asher.

14 M aalmihii sarreenka la goosanayay ayaa Ruubeen tegey berrinka oo ka dhex helay ubax, oo wuxuu u keenay hooyadiis Lee'ah. Markaasay Raaxeel waxay Lee'ah ku tidhi, Waan ku baryayaaye, wax iga sii ubaxa wiilkaaga.

During the time of gathering grain, Reuben went out in the field and found some fruit. He brought it to his mother Leah. Then Rachel said to Leah, “Give me some of your son’s fruit.”

15 I yana waxay ku tidhi, Ma wax yar baa inaad ninkaygii iga qaadday? Weliba ubaxa wiilkaygana ma iga qaadan lahayd? Raaxeelna waxay tidhi, Haddaba wiilkaaga ubaxiisa aawadiis isagu caawa wuu kula seexan doonaa.

But Leah said, “Is it not enough to take my husband? Would you take my son’s fruit also?” So Rachel said, “Jacob may lie with you tonight if you give me your son’s fruit.”

16 Y acquubna fiidkii buu beertii ka yimid, markaasay Lee'ah ka hor tagtay oo waxay tidhi, Waa inaad ii timaadaa, waayo, hubaal waxaan kugu kiraystay ubaxii wiilkayga. Habeenkaasna iyadii buu la seexday.

When Jacob came in from the field in the evening, Leah went to meet him. She said, “You must sleep with me tonight. For I have paid for you with my son’s fruit.” So he lay with her that night.

17 I laahna wuu maqlay Lee'ah, wayna uuraysatay, oo Yacquub bay u dhashay wiil shanaad.

And God heard Leah and she gave birth to a fifth son for Jacob.

18 L ee'ahna waxay tidhi, Ilaah waa i siiyey kiradaydii, maxaa yeelay, addoontaydii waxaan siiyey ninkayga. Wiilkii magiciisiina waxay u bixisay Isaakaar.

Leah said, “God has given me my pay because I gave my husband the woman who serves me.” So she gave him the name Issachar.

19 L ee'ahna mar kalay uuraysatay, oo waxay Yacquub u dhashay wiil lixaad.

Leah was going to have another child and she gave birth to a sixth son for Jacob.

20 L ee'ahna waxay tidhi, Ilaah dhiibaad wanaagsan buu igu dhiibaadiyey, haatan buu ninkaygu ila joogi doonaa, maxaa yeelay, waxaan u dhalay lix wiil. Wiilkii magiciisiina waxay u bixisay Sebulun.

Then Leah said, “God has given me a good gift. Now my husband will live with me, because I have given birth to six sons.” So she gave him the name of Zebulun.

21 D abadeedna waxay dhashay gabadh, magaceediina waxay u bixisay Diinah.

Later she gave birth to a daughter, and gave her the name Dinah.

22 I laahna wuu xusuustay Raaxeel, oo Ilaah wuu maqlay iyada, maxalkeediina wuu u furay.

Then God remembered Rachel. God listened to her, and made her able to have a child,

23 O o way uuraysatay, oo wiil bay dhashay; oo waxay tidhi, Ilaah baa ceebtaydii iga qaaday.

and she gave birth to a son. Then she said, “God has taken away my shame.”

24 M agiciisiina waxay u bixisay Yuusuf, iyadoo leh Rabbigu wiil kale ha iigu daro. Xoolihii Yacquub Oo Batay

She gave him the name Joseph, saying, “May the Lord give me another son.”

25 M arkii Raaxeel Yuusuf dhashay ka dib ayaa Yacquub Laabaan ku yidhi, Iska kay dir, si aan u tago meeshaydii, iyo dalkaygii.

When Rachel had given birth to Joseph, Jacob said to Laban, “Send me away, so I may go to my own place and my own country.

26 I sii naagahayga iyo carruurtayda aan daraaddood kuugu adeegay, oo aan iska tago; waayo waad og tahay adeegiddii aan kuu adeegi jiray.

Give me my wives and my children for whom I have served. Let me leave, for you know how much I have served you.”

27 L aabaanna wuxuu ku yidhi isagii, Haddaad raalli iga tahay, joog, waayo, waxaan faal ku gartay in Rabbigu daraaddaa ii barakeeyey.

But Laban said to him, “If now it pleases you, stay with me. I have learned that the Lord has brought good to me because of you.”

28 O o wuxuu yidhi, Mushahaaradaada ii sheeg, oo waan ku siin doonaa.

Then he said, “Tell me what you want to be paid, and I will pay it.”

29 O o isna wuxuu ku yidhi, Waad og tahay sidii aan kuugu adeegay, iyo sidii xoolahaagii aan daaqi jiray xaalkoodu ahaa.

Jacob said to him, “You know how much I have served you and how I have cared for your cattle.

30 W aayo, waxaad haysan jirtay wax yar bay ahayd intaanan iman ka hor, waana ay korodhay oo waxay noqotay wax faro badan; Rabbiguna wuu kugu barakeeyey dhinacii aan u kacayba; de haddaba goormaan reerkaygana wax u dhaqan doonaa?

For you had little before I came. But now it has become very much. The Lord has brought good to you everywhere I turned. But when will I be able to give much to those of my own house also?”

31 O o isna wuxuu yidhi, Maxaan ku siiyaa? Yacquubna wuxuu yidhi, Waa inaanad waxba i siin, laakiin haddaad waxan ii samaysid, adhigaaga haddana waan daajin oo waan ilaalin doonaa.

Laban said, “What should I pay you?” Jacob said, “Do not pay me anything. If you will do this one thing for me, I will again feed and take care of your flock.

32 M aanta adhigaaga oo dhan waan dhex mari doonaa, oo waxaan ka sooci doonaa mid kasta oo dhibicyo iyo barbaro leh, iyo mid kasta oo madow oo idaha ku dhex jira, iyo inta barbaraha iyo dhibicyada leh oo riyaha ku jirta; oo waxaasu waxay noqon doonaan mushahaaradayda.

Let me go through your whole flock today. Let me take out of it every sheep and every goat that has spots, and every black lamb. These will be my pay.

33 O o sidaasay xaqnimadaydu iigu jawaabi doontaa hadda ka dib, goortaad timaadid oo ka hadlaysid mushahaaradayda ku hor taal. Mid kasta oo aan dhibicyo ama barbaro lahayn oo riyaha ku jira, iyo mid kasta oo aan madoobayn oo idaha ku jira, haddii layga helo, waxaa lagu tirin doonaa wax la soo xaday.

So my fair actions will answer for me later, when you come to look at what I have been paid. If you find any sheep or goat without spots or any lamb that is not black, you may think of them as stolen.”

34 L aabaanna wuxuu yidhi, Waa hagaag, sidaad tidhi ha noqoto.

And Laban said, “Good! Let it be done as you say.”

35 O o maalintaasuu wada soocay orgidii xariijimaha iyo barbaraha lahayd, iyo riyihii dhibicyada iyo barbaraha lahaa oo dhan, mid kasta oo caddaani ku jirto, iyo kuwa madmadow oo idaha ku jira oo dhan, oo wuxuu gacanta u geliyey wiilashiisii;

That day Laban took out all the male goats with spots and all the female goats with spots, every one with white on it, and every black sheep. And he put them into the care of his sons.

36 O o wuxuu Yacquub ka fogaaday intii saddex maalmood loo socdo, Yacquubna wuxuu daajin jiray Laabaan adhigiisii intii ka hadhay.

Then he traveled three days away from Jacob. And Jacob was left to care for the rest of Laban’s flocks.

37 Y acquubna wuxuu qaatay dhengedo qoyan oo ah geedihii la odhan jiray libneh iyo yicib iyo carmon, kolkaasuu diiray oo xariijimo cadcad ku sameeyey.

Then Jacob took green sticks of three kinds of trees. And he cut white marks in them, showing the white which was in the sticks.

38 M arkaasuu dhengedihii uu diiray adhigii hor dhigay oo ku riday dararkii berkedaha oo adhigu ka cabbi jiray; wayna rimeen markay soo arooreen.

He took these sticks which he had cut and set them in front of the flocks, in the place where the flocks came to drink. And the animals mated when they came to drink.

39 A dhigiina dhengedihii hortooda ayuu ku rimay, wuxuuna dhalay maqal xariijimo iyo dhibicyo iyo barbaro leh.

So the flocks mated in front of the sticks. And the young that were born had spots.

40 M arkaasuu Yacquub naylihii ka soocay oo wuxuu adhigii u jeediyey xagga kuwii xariijimaha lahaa iyo intii madmadoobayd oo dhan ee adhigii Laabaan; markaasuu gooni u soocay goosankiisii, kumana uu darin adhigii Laabaan.

Then Jacob divided the lambs. He made the flocks look toward Laban’s flock of the animals which were black or with spots. And he put his own flocks by themselves. He did not put them with Laban’s flock.

41 M arkii adhiga intiisii xoogga lahayd rintay ayaa Yacquub dhengedihii adhiga indhihiisa hor dhigay intuu dararkii ku riday, inay dhengedihii ku dhex rimaan;

When the stronger animals of the flock were mating, Jacob would put the sticks in the water in front of the flock so they would mate by the sticks.

42 l aakiinse adhiga qaarkii caatada ahaa, uma uu dhex gelin jirin; sidaas daraaddeed intii caatada ahayd waxaa lahaa Laabaan, intii xoogga lahaydna waxaa lahaa Yacquub.

But when the flock was weak, Jacob did not put the sticks in. So the weaker animals went to Laban and the stronger ones went to Jacob.

43 N inkiina aad buu u xoolo batay, wuxuuna lahaa adhi badan, iyo naago addoommo ah, iyo niman addoommo ah, iyo geel, iyo dameerro.

Jacob became very rich. He had large flocks and camels and donkeys, and men and women servants.
