¹When Rachel saw that she bore Jacob no children, Rachel envied her sister. She said to Jacob, “Give me children, or else I will die.”

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

²Jacob’s anger was kindled against Rachel, and he said, “Am I in God’s place, who has withheld from you the fruit of the womb?”

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

³She said, “Behold, my maid Bilhah. Go in to her, that she may bear on my knees, and I also may obtain children by her.”

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

⁴She gave him Bilhah her handmaid as wife, and Jacob went in to her.

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

⁵Bilhah conceived, and bore Jacob a son.

⁵Bilhahna way uuraysatay, oo Yacquub wiil bay u dhashay.

⁶Rachel said, “God has judged me, and has also heard my voice, and has given me a son.” Therefore called she his name Dan.

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

⁷Bilhah, Rachel’s handmaid, conceived again, and bore Jacob a second son.

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

⁸Rachel said, “With mighty wrestlings have I wrestled with my sister, and have prevailed.” She named him Naphtali.

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

⁹When Leah saw that she had finished bearing, she took Zilpah, her handmaid, and gave her to Jacob as a wife.

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

¹⁰Zilpah, Leah’s handmaid, bore Jacob a son.

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

¹¹Leah said, “How fortunate!” She named him Gad.

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

¹²Zilpah, Leah’s handmaid, bore Jacob a second son.

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

¹³Leah said, “Happy am I, for the daughters will call me happy.” She named him Asher.

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

¹⁴Reuben went in the days of wheat harvest, and found mandrakes in the field, and brought them to his mother, Leah. Then Rachel said to Leah, “Please give me some of your son’s mandrakes.”

¹⁴Maalmihii 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.

¹⁵She said to her, “Is it a small matter that you have taken away my husband? Would you take away my son’s mandrakes, also?” Rachel said, “Therefore he will lie with you tonight for your son’s mandrakes.”

¹⁵Iyana 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.

¹⁶Jacob came from the field in the evening, and Leah went out to meet him, and said, “You must come in to me; for I have surely hired you with my son’s mandrakes.” He lay with her that night.

¹⁶Yacquubna 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.

¹⁷God listened to Leah, and she conceived, and bore Jacob a fifth son.

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

¹⁸Leah said, “God has given me my hire, because I gave my handmaid to my husband.” She named him Issachar.

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

¹⁹Leah conceived again, and bore a sixth son to Jacob.

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

²⁰Leah said, “God has endowed me with a good dowry. Now my husband will live with me, because I have borne him six sons.” She named him Zebulun.

²⁰Lee'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.

²¹Afterwards, she bore a daughter, and named her Dinah.

²¹Dabadeedna waxay dhashay gabadh, magaceediina waxay u bixisay Diinah.

²²God remembered Rachel, and God listened to her, and opened her womb.

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

²³She conceived, bore a son, and said, “God has taken away my reproach.”

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

²⁴She named him Joseph, Joseph means “may he add.” saying, “May Yahweh add another son to me.”

²⁴Magiciisiina waxay u bixisay Yuusuf, iyadoo leh Rabbigu wiil kale ha iigu daro.

²⁵It happened, when Rachel had borne Joseph, that Jacob said to Laban, “Send me away, that I may go to my own place, and to my country.

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

²⁶Give me my wives and my children for whom I have served you, and let me go; for you know my service with which I have served you.”

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

²⁷Laban said to him, “If now I have found favor in your eyes, stay here, for I have divined that Yahweh has blessed me for your sake.”

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

²⁸He said, “Appoint me your wages, and I will give it.”

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

²⁹He said to him, “You know how I have served you, and how your livestock have fared with me.

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

³⁰For it was little which you had before I came, and it has increased to a multitude. Yahweh has blessed you wherever I turned. Now when will I provide for my own house also?”

³⁰Waayo, 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?

³¹He said, “What shall I give you?” Jacob said, “You shall not give me anything. If you will do this thing for me, I will again feed your flock and keep it.

³¹Oo 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.

³²I will pass through all your flock today, removing from there every speckled and spotted one, and every black one among the sheep, and the spotted and speckled among the goats. This will be my hire.

³²Maanta 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.

³³So my righteousness will answer for me hereafter, when you come concerning my hire that is before you. Every one that is not speckled and spotted among the goats, and black among the sheep, that might be with me, will be counted stolen.”

³³Oo 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.

³⁴Laban said, “Behold, let it be according to your word.”

³⁴Laabaanna wuxuu yidhi, Waa hagaag, sidaad tidhi ha noqoto.

³⁵That day, he removed the male goats that were streaked and spotted, and all the female goats that were speckled and spotted, every one that had white in it, and all the black ones among the sheep, and gave them into the hand of his sons.

³⁵Oo 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;

³⁶He set three days’ journey between himself and Jacob, and Jacob fed the rest of Laban’s flocks.

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

³⁷Jacob took to himself rods of fresh poplar, almond, plane tree, peeled white streaks in them, and made the white appear which was in the rods.

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

³⁸He set the rods which he had peeled opposite the flocks in the gutters in the watering-troughs where the flocks came to drink. They conceived when they came to drink.

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

³⁹The flocks conceived before the rods, and the flocks produced streaked, speckled, and spotted.

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

⁴⁰Jacob separated the lambs, and set the faces of the flocks toward the streaked and all the black in the flock of Laban: and he put his own droves apart, and didn’t put them into Laban’s flock.

⁴⁰Markaasuu 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.

⁴¹It happened, whenever the stronger of the flock conceived, that Jacob laid the rods before the eyes of the flock in the gutters, that they might conceive among the rods;

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

⁴²but when the flock were feeble, he didn’t put them in. So the feebler were Laban’s, and the stronger Jacob’s.

⁴²laakiinse adhiga qaarkii caatada ahaa, uma uu dhex gelin jirin; sidaas daraaddeed intii caatada ahayd waxaa lahaa Laabaan, intii xoogga lahaydna waxaa lahaa Yacquub.Ninkiina aad buu u xoolo batay, wuxuuna lahaa adhi badan, iyo naago addoommo ah, iyo niman addoommo ah, iyo geel, iyo dameerro.

⁴³The man increased exceedingly, and had large flocks, female servants and male servants, and camels and donkeys.

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