¹And when Rachel saw that she bare Jacob no children, Rachel envied her sister; and said unto Jacob, Give me children, or else I die.

¹فلما رأت راحيل انها لم تلد ليعقوب غارت راحيل من اختها وقالت ليعقوب هب لي بنين. وإلا فانا اموت.

²And Jacob's anger was kindled against Rachel: and he said, Am I in God's stead, who hath withheld from thee the fruit of the womb?

²فحمي غضب يعقوب على راحيل وقال ألعلي مكان الله الذي منع عنك ثمرة البطن.

³And she said, Behold my maid Bilhah, go in unto her; and she shall bear upon my knees, that I may also have children by her.

³فقالت هوذا جاريتي بلهة. ادخل عليها فتلد على ركبتيّ وأرزق انا ايضا منها بنين.

⁴And she gave him Bilhah her handmaid to wife: and Jacob went in unto her.

⁴. فاعطته بلهة جاريتها زوجة. فدخل عليها يعقوب

⁵And Bilhah conceived, and bare Jacob a son.

⁵. فحبلت بلهة وولدت ليعقوب ابنا

⁶And Rachel said, God hath judged me, and hath also heard my voice, and hath given me a son: therefore called she his name Dan.

⁶فقالت راحيل قد قضى لي الله وسمع ايضا لصوتي واعطاني ابنا. لذلك دعت اسمه دانا.

⁷And Bilhah Rachel's maid conceived again, and bare Jacob a second son.

⁷وحبلت ايضا بلهة جارية راحيل وولدت ابنا ثانيا ليعقوب.

⁸And Rachel said, With great wrestlings have I wrestled with my sister, and I have prevailed: and she called his name Naphtali.

⁸فقالت راحيل مصارعات الله قد صارعت اختي وغلبت. فدعت اسمه نفتالي

⁹When Leah saw that she had left bearing, she took Zilpah her maid, and gave her Jacob to wife.

⁹ولما رأت ليئة انها توقّفت عن الولادة اخذت زلفة جاريتها واعطتها ليعقوب زوجة.

¹⁰And Zilpah Leah's maid bare Jacob a son.

¹⁰فولدت زلفة جارية ليئة ليعقوب ابنا.

¹¹And Leah said, A troop cometh: and she called his name Gad.

¹¹فقالت ليئة بسعد. فدعت اسمه جادا.

¹²And Zilpah Leah's maid bare Jacob a second son.

¹²وولدت زلفة جارية ليئة ابنا ثانيا ليعقوب.

¹³And Leah said, Happy am I, for the daughters will call me blessed: and she called his name Asher.

¹³فقالت ليئة بغبطتي لانه تغبطني بنات. فدعت اسمه اشير

¹⁴And Reuben went in the days of wheat harvest, and found mandrakes in the field, and brought them unto his mother Leah. Then Rachel said to Leah, Give me, I pray thee, of thy son's mandrakes.

¹⁴ومضى رأوبين في ايام حصاد الحنطة فوجد لفّاحا في الحقل وجاء به الى ليئة امه. فقالت راحيل لليئة اعطني من لفّاح ابنك.

¹⁵And she said unto her, Is it a small matter that thou hast taken my husband? and wouldest thou take away my son's mandrakes also? And Rachel said, Therefore he shall lie with thee to night for thy son's mandrakes.

¹⁵فقالت لها أقليل انك اخذت رجلي فتاخذين لفّاح ابني ايضا. فقالت راحيل اذا يضطجع معك الليلة عوضا عن لفّاح ابنك.

¹⁶And Jacob came out of the field in the evening, and Leah went out to meet him, and said, Thou must come in unto me; for surely I have hired thee with my son's mandrakes. And he lay with her that night.

¹⁶فلما اتى يعقوب من الحقل في المساء خرجت ليئة لملاقاته وقالت اليّ تجيء لاني قد استأجرتك بلفّاح ابني. فاضطجع معها تلك الليلة.

¹⁷And God hearkened unto Leah, and she conceived, and bare Jacob the fifth son.

¹⁷وسمع الله لليئة فحبلت وولدت ليعقوب ابنا خامسا.

¹⁸And Leah said, God hath given me my hire, because I have given my maiden to my husband: and she called his name Issachar.

¹⁸فقالت ليئة قد اعطاني الله اجرتي لاني اعطيت جاريتي لرجلي. فدعت اسمه يسّاكر.

¹⁹And Leah conceived again, and bare Jacob the sixth son.

¹⁹وحبلت ايضا ليئة وولدت ابنا سادسا ليعقوب.

²⁰And Leah said, God hath endued me with a good dowry; now will my husband dwell with me, because I have born him six sons: and she called his name Zebulun.

²⁰فقالت ليئة قد وهبني الله هبة حسنة. الآن يساكنني رجلي لاني ولدت له ستة بنين. فدعت اسمه زبولون.

²¹And afterwards she bare a daughter, and called her name Dinah.

²¹ثم ولدت ابنة ودعت اسمها دينة

²²And God remembered Rachel, and God hearkened to her, and opened her womb.

²²وذكر الله راحيل وسمع لها الله وفتح رحمها.

²³And she conceived, and bare a son; and said, God hath taken away my reproach:

²³فحبلت وولدت ابنا. فقالت قد نزع الله عاري.

²⁴And she called his name Joseph; and said, The LORD shall add to me another son.

²⁴ودعت اسمه يوسف قائلة يزيدني الرب ابنا آخر

²⁵And it came to pass, when Rachel had born Joseph, that Jacob said unto Laban, Send me away, that I may go unto mine own place, and to my country.

²⁵وحدث لما ولدت راحيل يوسف ان يعقوب قال للابان اصرفني لاذهب الى مكاني والى ارضي.

²⁶Give me my wives and my children, for whom I have served thee, and let me go: for thou knowest my service which I have done thee.

²⁶اعطني نسائي واولادي الذين خدمتك بهم فاذهب. لانك انت تعلم خدمتي التي خدمتك.

²⁷And Laban said unto him, I pray thee, if I have found favor in thine eyes, tarry: for I have learned by experience that the LORD hath blessed me for thy sake.

²⁷فقال له لابان ليتني اجد نعمة في عينيك. قد تفاءلت فباركني الرب بسببك.

²⁸And he said, Appoint me thy wages, and I will give it.

²⁸وقال عيّن لي اجرتك فاعطيك.

²⁹And he said unto him, Thou knowest how I have served thee, and how thy cattle was with me.

²⁹فقال له انت تعلم ماذا خدمتك وماذا صارت مواشيك معي.

³⁰For it was little which thou hadst before I came, and it is now increased unto a multitude; and the LORD hath blessed thee since my coming: and now when shall I provide for mine own house also?

³⁰لان ما كان لك قبلي قليل فقد اتّسع الى كثير وباركك الرب في اثري. والآن متى اعمل انا ايضا لبيتي.

³¹And he said, What shall I give thee? And Jacob said, Thou shalt not give me any thing: if thou wilt do this thing for me, I will again feed and keep thy flock.

³¹فقال ماذا اعطيك. فقال يعقوب لا تعطيني شيئا. ان صنعت لي هذا الامر اعود ارعى غنمك واحفظها.

³²I will pass through all thy flock to day, removing from thence all the speckled and spotted cattle, and all the brown cattle among the sheep, and the spotted and speckled among the goats: and of such shall be my hire.

³²اجتاز بين غنمك كلها اليوم. وأعزل انت منها كل شاة رقطاء وبلقاء وكل شاة سوداء بين الخرفان وبلقاء ورقطاء بين المعزى. فيكون مثل ذلك اجرتي

³³So shall my righteousness answer for me in time to come, when it shall come for my hire before thy face: every one that is not speckled and spotted among the goats, and brown among the sheep, that shall be counted stolen with me.

³³ويشهد فيّ برّي يوم غد اذا جئت من اجل اجرتي قدامك. كل ما ليس ارقط او ابلق بين المعزى واسود بين الخرفان فهو مسروق عندي.

³⁴And Laban said, Behold, I would it might be according to thy word.

³⁴فقال لابان هوذا ليكن بحسب كلامك.

³⁵And he removed that day the he goats that were ring-streaked and spotted, and all the she goats that were speckled and spotted, and every one that had some white in it, and all the brown among the sheep, and gave them into the hand of his sons.

³⁵فعزل في ذلك اليوم التيوس المخطّطة والبلقاء وكل العناز الرقطاء والبلقاء. كل ما فيه بياض وكل اسود بين الخرفان. ودفعها الى ايدي بنيه.

³⁶And he set three days' journey betwixt himself and Jacob: and Jacob fed the rest of Laban's flocks.

³⁶وجعل مسيرة ثلاثة ايام بينه وبين يعقوب. وكان يعقوب يرعى غنم لابان الباقية

³⁷And Jacob took him rods of green poplar, and of the hazel and chestnut tree; and pilled white streaks in them, and made the white appear which was in the rods.

³⁷فأخذ يعقوب لنفسه قضبانا خضرا من لبنى ولوز ودلب وقشر فيها خطوطا بيضا كاشطا عن البياض الذي على القضبان.

³⁸And he set the rods which he had pilled before the flocks in the gutters in the watering troughs when the flocks came to drink, that they should conceive when they came to drink.

³⁸واوقف القضبان التي قشرها في الاجران في مساقي الماء حيث كانت الغنم تجيء لتشرب. تجاه الغنم. لتتوحم عند مجيئها لتشرب.

³⁹And the flocks conceived before the rods, and brought forth cattle ring-streaked, speckled, and spotted.

³⁹فتوحّمت الغنم عند القضبان وولدت الغنم مخطّطات ورقطا وبلقا.

⁴⁰And Jacob did separate the lambs, and set the faces of the flocks toward the ring-streaked, and all the brown in the flock of Laban; and he put his own flocks by themselves, and put them not unto Laban's cattle.

⁴⁰وافرز يعقوب الخرفان وجعل وجوه الغنم الى المخطّط وكل اسود بين غنم لابان. وجعل له قطعانا وحده ولم يجعلها مع غنم لابان.

⁴¹And it came to pass, whensoever the stronger cattle did conceive, that Jacob laid the rods before the eyes of the cattle in the gutters, that they might conceive among the rods.

⁴¹وحدث كلما توحّمت الغنم القوية ان يعقوب وضع القضبان امام عيون الغنم في الاجران. لتتوحّم بين القضبان.

⁴²But when the cattle were feeble, he put them not in: so the feebler were Laban's, and the stronger Jacob's.

⁴²وحين استضعفت الغنم لم يضعها. فصارت الضعيفة للابان والقوية ليعقوب.

⁴³And the man increased exceedingly, and had much cattle, and maidservants, and menservants, and camels, and asses.

⁴³فاتّسع الرجل كثيرا جدا. وكان له غنم كثير وجوار وعبيد وجمال وحمير
