創世記 30
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
World English Bible
1拉結 見自己不給 雅各 生子，就嫉妒她姊姊，對 雅各 說：「你給我孩子，不然我就死了。」
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.”
2雅各 向 拉結 生氣，說：「叫你不生育的是上帝，我豈能代替他 作主 呢？」
2Jacob’s anger burned against Rachel, and he said, “Am I in God’s place, who has withheld from you the fruit of the womb?”
3拉結 說：「有我的使女 辟拉 在這裏，你可以與她同房，使她生子在我膝下，我便因她也得孩子。」
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.”
4拉結 就把她的使女 辟拉 給丈夫為妾； 雅各 便與她同房，
4She gave him Bilhah her servant as wife, and Jacob went in to her.
5辟拉 就懷孕，給 雅各 生了一個兒子。
5Bilhah conceived, and bore Jacob a son.
6拉結 說：「上帝伸了我的冤，也聽了我的聲音，賜我一個兒子」，因此給他起名叫 但 。
6Rachel said, “God has judged me, and has also heard my voice, and has given me a son.” Therefore she called his name Dan.
7拉結 的使女 辟拉 又懷孕，給 雅各 生了第二個兒子。
7Bilhah, Rachel’s servant, conceived again, and bore Jacob a second son.
8拉結 說：「我與我姊姊大大相爭，並且得勝」，於是給他起名叫 拿弗他利 。
8Rachel said, “I have wrestled with my sister with mighty wrestlings, and have prevailed.” She named him Naphtali.
9利亞 見自己停了生育，就把使女 悉帕 給 雅各 為妾。
9When Leah saw that she had finished bearing, she took Zilpah, her servant, and gave her to Jacob as a wife.
10利亞 的使女 悉帕 給 雅各 生了一個兒子。
10Zilpah, Leah’s servant, bore Jacob a son.
11利亞 說：「萬幸！」於是給他起名叫 迦得 。
11Leah said, “How fortunate!” She named him Gad.
12利亞 的使女 悉帕 又給 雅各 生了第二個兒子。
12Zilpah, Leah’s servant, bore Jacob a second son.
13利亞 說：「我有福啊，眾女子都要稱我是有福的」，於是給他起名叫 亞設 。
13Leah said, “Happy am I, for the daughters will call me happy.” She named him Asher.
14割麥子的時候， 呂便 往田裏去，尋見風茄，拿來給他母親 利亞 。 拉結 對 利亞 說：「請你把你兒子的風茄給我些。」
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.”
15利亞 說：「你奪了我的丈夫還算小事嗎？你又要奪我兒子的風茄嗎？」 拉結 說：「為你兒子的風茄，今夜他可以與你同寢。」
15Leah 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.”
16到了晚上， 雅各 從田裏回來， 利亞 出來迎接他，說：「你要與我同寢，因為我實在用我兒子的風茄把你雇下了。」那一夜， 雅各 就與她同寢。
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.
17上帝應允了 利亞 ，她就懷孕，給 雅各 生了第五個兒子。
17God listened to Leah, and she conceived, and bore Jacob a fifth son.
18利亞 說：「上帝給了我價值，因為我把使女給了我丈夫」，於是給他起名叫 以薩迦 。
18Leah said, “God has given me my hire, because I gave my servant to my husband.” She named him Issachar.
19利亞 又懷孕，給 雅各 生了第六個兒子。
19Leah conceived again, and bore a sixth son to Jacob.
20利亞 說：「上帝賜我厚賞；我丈夫必與我同住，因我給他生了六個兒子」，於是給他起名 西布倫 。
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.
21後來又生了一個女兒，給她起名叫 底拿 。
21Afterwards, she bore a daughter, and named her Dinah.
22上帝顧念 拉結 ，應允了她，使她能生育。
22God remembered Rachel, and God listened to her, and opened her womb.
23拉結 懷孕生子，說：「上帝除去了我的羞恥」，
23She conceived, bore a son, and said, “God has taken away my reproach.”
24就給他起名叫 約瑟 ，意思說：「願耶和華再增添我一個兒子。」
24She named him Joseph, saying, “May the LORD add another son to me.”
25拉結 生 約瑟 之後， 雅各 對 拉班 說：「請打發我走，叫我回到我本鄉本土去。
25When Rachel had borne Joseph, Jacob said to Laban, “Send me away, that I may go to my own place, and to my country.
26請你把我服事你所得的妻子和兒女給我，讓我走；我怎樣服事你，你都知道。」
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.”
27拉班 對他說：「我若在你眼前蒙恩，請你 仍與我同住 ， 因為 我已算定，耶和華賜福與我是為你的緣故」；
27Laban said to him, “If now I have found favor in your eyes, stay here, for I have divined that the LORD has blessed me for your sake.”
28又說：「請你定你的工價，我就給你。」
28He said, “Appoint me your wages, and I will give it.”
29雅各 對他說：「我怎樣服事你，你的牲畜在我手裏怎樣，是你知道的。
29Jacob said to him, “You know how I have served you, and how your livestock have fared with me.
30我未來之先，你所有的很少，現今卻發大眾多，耶和華隨我的腳步賜福與你。如今，我甚麼時候才為自己興家立業呢？」
30For it was little which you had before I came, and it has increased to a multitude. The LORD has blessed you wherever I turned. Now when will I provide for my own house also?”
31拉班 說：「我當給你甚麼呢？」 雅各 說：「甚麼你也不必給我，只有一件事，你若應承，我便仍舊牧放你的羊群。
31Laban 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.
32今天我要走遍你的羊群，把綿羊中凡有點的、有斑的，和黑色的，並山羊中凡有斑的、有點的，都挑出來；將來 這一等的 就算我的工價。
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.
33以後你來查看我的工價，凡在我手裏的山羊不是有點有斑的，綿羊不是黑色的，那就算是我偷的；這樣便可證出我的公義來。」
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 considered stolen.”
34拉班 說：「好啊！我情願照着你的話行。」
34Laban said, “Behold, let it be according to your word.”
35當日， 拉班 把有紋的、有斑的公山羊，有點的、有斑的、有雜白紋的母山羊，並黑色的綿羊，都挑出來，交在他兒子們的手下，
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.
36又使自己和 雅各 相離三天的路程。 雅各 就牧養 拉班 其餘的羊。
36He set three days’ journey between himself and Jacob, and Jacob fed the rest of Laban’s flocks.
37雅各 拿楊樹、杏樹、楓樹的嫩枝，將皮剝成白紋，使枝子露出白的來，
37Jacob took to himself rods of fresh poplar, almond, and plane tree, peeled white streaks in them, and made the white appear which was in the rods.
38將剝了皮的枝子，對着羊群，插在飲羊的水溝裏和水槽裏，羊來喝的時候，牝牡配合。
38He set the rods which he had peeled opposite the flocks in the watering troughs where the flocks came to drink. They conceived when they came to drink.
39羊對着枝子配合，就生下有紋的、有點的、有斑的來。
39The flocks conceived before the rods, and the flocks produced streaked, speckled, and spotted.
40雅各 把羊羔分出來，使 拉班 的羊與這有紋和黑色的羊相對，把自己的羊另放一處，不叫他和 拉班 的羊混雜。
40Jacob separated the lambs, and set the faces of the flocks toward the streaked and all the black in Laban’s flock. He put his own droves apart, and didn’t put them into Laban’s flock.
41到羊群肥壯配合的時候， 雅各 就把枝子插在水溝裏，使羊對着枝子配合。
41Whenever the stronger of the flock conceived, Jacob laid the rods in front of the eyes of the flock in the watering troughs, that they might conceive among the rods;
42只是到羊瘦弱配合的時候就不插枝子。這樣，瘦弱的就歸 拉班 ，肥壯的就歸 雅各 。
42but when the flock were feeble, he didn’t put them in. So the feebler were Laban’s, and the stronger Jacob’s.
43於是 雅各 極其發大，得了許多的羊群、僕婢、駱駝，和驢。
43The man increased exceedingly, and had large flocks, female servants and male servants, and camels and donkeys.
