1Ἰδοῦσα δὲ Ραχηλ ὅτι οὐ τέτοκεν τῷ Ιακωβ, καὶ ἐζήλωσεν Ραχηλ τὴν ἀδελφὴν αὐτῆς καὶ εἶπεν τῷ Ιακωβ Δός μοι τέκνα· εἰ δὲ μή, τελευτήσω ἐγώ.  When Rachel saw that she bore Jacob no children, she envied her sister; and she said to Jacob, "Give me children, or I shall die!"וַתֵּרֶא רָחֵל כִּי לֹא יָלְדָה לְיַעֲקֹב וַתְּקַנֵּא רָחֵל בַּאֲחֹתָהּ וַתֹּאמֶר אֶל־יַעֲקֹב הָבָה־לִּי בָנִים וְאִם־אַיִן מֵתָה אָנֹכִי׃ 1
2ἐθυμώθη δὲ Ιακωβ τῇ Ραχηλ καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῇ Μὴ ἀντὶ θεοῦ ἐγώ εἰμι, ὃς ἐστέρησέν σε καρπὸν κοιλίας;  Jacob's anger was kindled against Rachel, and he said, "Am I in the place of God, who has withheld from you the fruit of the womb?"וַיִּחַר־אַף יַעֲקֹב בְּרָחֵל וַיֹּאמֶר הֲתַחַת אֱלֹהִים אָנֹכִי אֲשֶׁר־מָנַע מִמֵּךְ פְּרִי־בָטֶן׃ 2
3εἶπεν δὲ Ραχηλ τῷ Ιακωβ Ἰδοὺ ἡ παιδίσκη μου Βαλλα· εἴσελθε πρὸς αὐτήν, καὶ τέξεται ἐπὶ τῶν γονάτων μου, καὶ τεκνοποιήσομαι κἀγὼ ἐξ αὐτῆς.  Then she said, "Here is my maid Bilhah; go in to her, that she may bear upon my knees, and even I may have children through her."וַתֹּאמֶר הִנֵּה אֲמָתִי בִלְהָה בֹּא אֵלֶיהָ וְתֵלֵד עַל־בִּרְכַּי וְאִבָּנֶה גַם־אָנֹכִי מִמֶּנָּה׃ 3
4καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτῷ Βαλλαν τὴν παιδίσκην αὐτῆς αὐτῷ γυναῖκα· εἰσῆλθεν δὲ πρὸς αὐτὴν Ιακωβ.  So she gave him her maid Bilhah as a wife; and Jacob went in to her.וַתִּתֶּן־לֹו אֶת־בִּלְהָה שִׁפְחָתָהּ לְאִשָּׁה וַיָּבֹא אֵלֶיהָ יַעֲקֹב׃ 4
5καὶ συνέλαβεν Βαλλα ἡ παιδίσκη Ραχηλ καὶ ἔτεκεν τῷ Ιακωβ υἱόν.  And Bilhah conceived and bore Jacob a son.וַתַּהַר בִּלְהָה וַתֵּלֶד לְיַעֲקֹב בֵּן׃ 5
6καὶ εἶπεν Ραχηλ Ἔκρινέν μοι ὁ θεὸς καὶ ἐπήκουσεν τῆς φωνῆς μου καὶ ἔδωκέν μοι υἱόν· διὰ τοῦτο ἐκάλεσεν τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ Δαν.  Then Rachel said, "God has judged me, and has also heard my voice and given me a son"; therefore she called his name Dan.וַתֹּאמֶר רָחֵל דָּנַנִּי אֱלֹהִים וְגַם שָׁמַע בְּקֹלִי וַיִּתֶּן־לִי בֵּן עַל־כֵּן קָרְאָה שְׁמֹו דָּן׃ 6
7καὶ συνέλαβεν ἔτι Βαλλα ἡ παιδίσκη Ραχηλ καὶ ἔτεκεν υἱὸν δεύτερον τῷ Ιακωβ.  Rachel's maid Bilhah conceived again and bore Jacob a second son.וַתַּהַר עֹוד וַתֵּלֶד בִּלְהָה שִׁפְחַת רָחֵל בֵּן שֵׁנִי לְיַעֲקֹב׃ 7
8καὶ εἶπεν Ραχηλ Συνελάβετό μοι ὁ θεός, καὶ συνανεστράφην τῇ ἀδελφῇ μου καὶ ἠδυνάσθην· καὶ ἐκάλεσεν τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ Νεφθαλι.  Then Rachel said, "With mighty wrestlings I have wrestled with my sister, and have prevailed"; so she called his name Naph'tali.וַתֹּאמֶר רָחֵל נַפְתּוּלֵי אֱלֹהִים נִפְתַּלְתִּי עִם־אֲחֹתִי גַּם־יָכֹלְתִּי וַתִּקְרָא שְׁמֹו נַפְתָּלִי׃ 8
9Εἶδεν δὲ Λεια ὅτι ἔστη τοῦ τίκτειν, καὶ ἔλαβεν Ζελφαν τὴν παιδίσκην αὐτῆς καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτὴν τῷ Ιακωβ γυναῖκα.  When Leah saw that she had ceased bearing children, she took her maid Zilpah and gave her to Jacob as a wife.וַתֵּרֶא לֵאָה כִּי עָמְדָה מִלֶּדֶת וַתִּקַּח אֶת־זִלְפָּה שִׁפְחָתָהּ וַתִּתֵּן אֹתָהּ לְיַעֲקֹב לְאִשָּׁה׃ 9
10εἰσῆλθεν δὲ πρὸς αὐτὴν Ιακωβ, καὶ συνέλαβεν Ζελφα ἡ παιδίσκη Λειας καὶ ἔτεκεν τῷ Ιακωβ υἱόν.  Then Leah's maid Zilpah bore Jacob a son.וַתֵּלֶד זִלְפָּה שִׁפְחַת לֵאָה לְיַעֲקֹב בֵּן׃ 10
11καὶ εἶπεν Λεια Ἑν τύχῃ· καὶ ἐπωνόμασεν τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ Γαδ.  And Leah said, "Good fortune!" so she called his name Gad.וַתֹּאמֶר לֵאָה [כ= בְּגָד] [ק= בָּא] [ק= גָד] וַתִּקְרָא אֶת־שְׁמֹו גָּד׃ 11
12καὶ συνέλαβεν Ζελφα ἡ παιδίσκη Λειας καὶ ἔτεκεν ἔτι τῷ Ιακωβ υἱὸν δεύτερον.  Leah's maid Zilpah bore Jacob a second son.וַתֵּלֶד זִלְפָּה שִׁפְחַת לֵאָה בֵּן שֵׁנִי לְיַעֲקֹב׃ 12
13καὶ εἶπεν Λεια Μακαρία ἐγώ, ὅτι μακαρίζουσίν με αἱ γυναῖκες· καὶ ἐκάλεσεν τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ Ασηρ.  And Leah said, "Happy am I! For the women will call me happy"; so she called his name Asher.וַתֹּאמֶר לֵאָה בְּאָשְׁרִי כִּי אִשְּׁרוּנִי בָּנֹות וַתִּקְרָא אֶת־שְׁמֹו אָשֵׁר׃ 13
14Ἑπορεύθη δὲ Ρουβην ἐν ἡμέραις θερισμοῦ πυρῶν καὶ εὗρεν μῆλα μανδραγόρου ἐν τῷ ἀγρῷ καὶ ἤνεγκεν αὐτὰ πρὸς Λειαν τὴν μητέρα αὐτοῦ. εἶπεν δὲ Ραχηλ τῇ Λεια Δός μοι τῶν μανδραγορῶν τοῦ υἱοῦ σου.  In the days of wheat harvest Reuben went and found mandrakes in the field, and brought them to his mother Leah. Then Rachel said to Leah, "Give me, I pray, some of your son's mandrakes."וַיֵּלֶךְ רְאוּבֵן בִּימֵי קְצִיר־חִטִּים וַיִּמְצָא דוּדָאִים בַּשָּׂדֶה וַיָּבֵא אֹתָם אֶל־לֵאָה אִמֹּו וַתֹּאמֶר רָחֵל אֶל־לֵאָה תְּנִי־נָא לִי מִדּוּדָאֵי בְּנֵךְ׃ 14
15εἶπεν δὲ Λεια Οὐχ ἱκανόν σοι ὅτι ἔλαβες τὸν ἄνδρα μου; μὴ καὶ τοὺς μανδραγόρας τοῦ υἱοῦ μου λήμψῃ; εἶπεν δὲ Ραχηλ Οὐχ οὕτως· κοιμηθήτω μετὰ σοῦ τὴν νύκτα ταύτην ἀντὶ τῶν μανδραγορῶν τοῦ υἱοῦ σου.  But she 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, "Then he may lie with you tonight for your son's mandrakes."וַתֹּאמֶר לָהּ הַמְעַט קַחְתֵּךְ אֶת־אִישִׁי וְלָקַחַת גַּם אֶת־דּוּדָאֵי בְּנִי וַתֹּאמֶר רָחֵל לָכֵן יִשְׁכַּב עִמָּךְ הַלַּיְלָה תַּחַת דּוּדָאֵי בְנֵךְ׃ 15
16εἰσῆλθεν δὲ Ιακωβ ἐξ ἀγροῦ ἑσπέρας, καὶ ἐξῆλθεν Λεια εἰς συνάντησιν αὐτῷ καὶ εἶπεν Πρός με εἰσελεύσῃ σήμερον· μεμίσθωμαι γάρ σε ἀντὶ τῶν μανδραγορῶν τοῦ υἱοῦ μου. καὶ ἐκοιμήθη μετ' αὐτῆς τὴν νύκτα ἐκείνην.  When Jacob came from the field in the evening, Leah went out to meet him, and said, "You must come in to me; for I have hired you with my son's mandrakes." So he lay with her that night.וַיָּבֹא יַעֲקֹב מִן־הַשָּׂדֶה בָּעֶרֶב וַתֵּצֵא לֵאָה לִקְרָאתֹו וַתֹּאמֶר אֵלַי תָּבֹוא כִּי שָׂכֹר שְׂכַרְתִּיךָ בְּדוּדָאֵי בְּנִי וַיִּשְׁכַּב עִמָּהּ בַּלַּיְלָה הוּא׃ 16
17καὶ ἐπήκουσεν ὁ θεὸς Λειας, καὶ συλλαβοῦσα ἔτεκεν τῷ Ιακωβ υἱὸν πέμπτον.  And God hearkened to Leah, and she conceived and bore Jacob a fifth son.וַיִּשְׁמַע אֱלֹהִים אֶל־לֵאָה וַתַּהַר וַתֵּלֶד לְיַעֲקֹב בֵּן חֲמִישִׁי׃ 17
18καὶ εἶπεν Λεια Ἔδωκεν ὁ θεὸς τὸν μισθόν μου ἀνθ' οὗ ἔδωκα τὴν παιδίσκην μου τῷ ἀνδρί μου· καὶ ἐκάλεσεν τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ Ισσαχαρ, ὅ ἐστιν Μισθός.  Leah said, "God has given me my hire because I gave my maid to my husband"; so she called his name Is'sachar.וַתֹּאמֶר לֵאָה נָתַן אֱלֹהִים שְׂכָרִי אֲשֶׁר־נָתַתִּי שִׁפְחָתִי לְאִישִׁי וַתִּקְרָא שְׁמֹו יִשָּׂשכָר׃ 18
19καὶ συνέλαβεν ἔτι Λεια καὶ ἔτεκεν υἱὸν ἕκτον τῷ Ιακωβ.  And Leah conceived again, and she bore Jacob a sixth son.וַתַּהַר עֹוד לֵאָה וַתֵּלֶד בֵּן־שִׁשִּׁי לְּיַעֲקֹב׃ 19
20καὶ εἶπεν Λεια Δεδώρηταί μοι ὁ θεὸς δῶρον καλόν· ἐν τῷ νῦν καιρῷ αἱρετιεῖ με ὁ ἀνήρ μου, ἔτεκον γὰρ αὐτῷ υἱοὺς ἕξ· καὶ ἐκάλεσεν τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ Ζαβουλων.  Then Leah said, "God has endowed me with a good dowry; now my husband will honor me, because I have borne him six sons"; so she called his name Zeb'ulun.וַתֹּאמֶר לֵאָה זְבָדַנִי אֱלֹהִים אֹתִי זֵבֶד טֹוב הַפַּעַם יִזְבְּלֵנִי אִישִׁי כִּי־יָלַדְתִּי לֹו שִׁשָּׁה בָנִים וַתִּקְרָא אֶת־שְׁמֹו זְבֻלוּן׃ 20
21καὶ μετὰ τοῦτο ἔτεκεν θυγατέρα καὶ ἐκάλεσεν τὸ ὄνομα αὐτῆς Δινα.  Afterwards she bore a daughter, and called her name Dinah.וְאַחַר יָלְדָה בַּת וַתִּקְרָא אֶת־שְׁמָהּ דִּינָה׃ 21
22Ἑμνήσθη δὲ ὁ θεὸς τῆς Ραχηλ, καὶ ἐπήκουσεν αὐτῆς ὁ θεὸς καὶ ἀνέῳξεν αὐτῆς τὴν μήτραν,  Then God remembered Rachel, and God hearkened to her and opened her womb.וַיִּזְכֹּר אֱלֹהִים אֶת־רָחֵל וַיִּשְׁמַע אֵלֶיהָ אֱלֹהִים וַיִּפְתַּח אֶת־רַחְמָהּ׃ 22
23καὶ συλλαβοῦσα ἔτεκεν τῷ Ιακωβ υἱόν. εἶπεν δὲ Ραχηλ Ἀφεῖλεν ὁ θεός μου τὸ ὄνειδος·  She conceived and bore a son, and said, "God has taken away my reproach";וַתַּהַר וַתֵּלֶד בֵּן וַתֹּאמֶר אָסַף אֱלֹהִים אֶת־חֶרְפָּתִי׃ 23
24καὶ ἐκάλεσεν τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ Ιωσηφ λέγουσα Προσθέτω ὁ θεός μοι υἱὸν ἕτερον.  and she called his name Joseph, saying, "May the LORD add to me another son!"וַתִּקְרָא אֶת־שְׁמֹו יֹוסֵף לֵאמֹר יֹסֵף יְהוָה לִי בֵּן אַחֵר׃ 24
25Ἑγένετο δὲ ὡς ἔτεκεν Ραχηλ τὸν Ιωσηφ, εἶπεν Ιακωβ τῷ Λαβαν Ἀπόστειλόν με, ἵνα ἀπέλθω εἰς τὸν τόπον μου καὶ εἰς τὴν γῆν μου. Jacob's bargain with Laban. Gn.30.25-43When Rachel had borne Joseph, Jacob said to Laban, "Send me away, that I may go to my own home and country.וַיְהִי כַּאֲשֶׁר יָלְדָה רָחֵל אֶת־יֹוסֵף וַיֹּאמֶר יַעֲקֹב אֶל־לָבָן שַׁלְּחֵנִי וְאֵלְכָה אֶל־מְקֹומִי וּלְאַרְצִי׃ 25
26ἀπόδος τὰς γυναῖκάς μου καὶ τὰ παιδία, περὶ ὧν δεδούλευκά σοι, ἵνα ἀπέλθω· σὺ γὰρ γινώσκεις τὴν δουλείαν, ἣν δεδούλευκά σοι.  Give me my wives and my children for whom I have served you, and let me go; for you know the service which I have given you."תְּנָה אֶת־נָשַׁי וְאֶת־יְלָדַי אֲשֶׁר עָבַדְתִּי אֹתְךָ בָּהֵן וְאֵלֵכָה כִּי אַתָּה יָדַעְתָּ אֶת־עֲבֹדָתִי אֲשֶׁר עֲבַדְתִּיךָ׃ 26
27εἶπεν δὲ αὐτῷ Λαβαν Εἰ εὗρον χάριν ἐναντίον σου, οἰωνισάμην ἄν· εὐλόγησεν γάρ με ὁ θεὸς τῇ σῇ εἰσόδῳ.  But Laban said to him, "If you will allow me to say so, I have learned by divination that the LORD has blessed me because of you;וַיֹּאמֶר אֵלָיו לָבָן אִם־נָא מָצָאתִי חֵן בְּעֵינֶיךָ נִחַשְׁתִּי וַיְבָרֲכֵנִי יְהוָה בִּגְלָלֶךָ׃ 27
28διάστειλον τὸν μισθόν σου πρός με, καὶ δώσω.  name your wages, and I will give it."וַיֹּאמַר נָקְבָה שְׂכָרְךָ עָלַי וְאֶתֵּנָה׃ 28
29εἶπεν δὲ αὐτῷ Ιακωβ Σὺ γινώσκεις ἃ δεδούλευκά σοι καὶ ὅσα ἦν κτήνη σου μετ' ἐμοῦ·  Jacob said to him, "You yourself know how I have served you, and how your cattle have fared with me.וַיֹּאמֶר אֵלָיו אַתָּה יָדַעְתָּ אֵת אֲשֶׁר עֲבַדְתִּיךָ וְאֵת אֲשֶׁר־הָיָה מִקְנְךָ אִתִּי׃ 29
30μικρὰ γὰρ ἦν ὅσα σοι ἦν ἐναντίον ἐμοῦ, καὶ ηὐξήθη εἰς πλῆθος, καὶ ηὐλόγησέν σε κύριος ἐπὶ τῷ ποδί μου. νῦν οὖν πότε ποιήσω κἀγὼ ἐμαυτῷ οἶκον;  For you had little before I came, and it has increased abundantly; and the LORD has blessed you wherever I turned. But now when shall I provide for my own household also?"כִּי מְעַט אֲשֶׁר־הָיָה לְךָ לְפָנַי וַיִּפְרֹץ לָרֹב וַיְבָרֶךְ יְהוָה אֹתְךָ לְרַגְלִי וְעַתָּה מָתַי אֶעֱשֶׂה גַם־אָנֹכִי לְבֵיתִי׃ 30
31καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ Λαβαν Τί σοι δώσω; εἶπεν δὲ αὐτῷ Ιακωβ Οὐ δώσεις μοι οὐθέν· ἐὰν ποιήσῃς μοι τὸ ῥῆμα τοῦτο, πάλιν ποιμανῶ τὰ πρόβατά σου καὶ φυλάξω.  He said, "What shall I give you?" Jacob said, "You shall not give me anything; if you will do this for me, I will again feed your flock and keep it:וַיֹּאמֶר מָה אֶתֶּן־לָךְ וַיֹּאמֶר יַעֲקֹב לֹא־תִתֶּן־לִי מְאוּמָה אִם־תַּעֲשֶׂה־לִּי הַדָּבָר הַזֶּה אָשׁוּבָה אֶרְעֶה צֹאנְךָ אֶשְׁמֹר׃ 31
32παρελθάτω πάντα τὰ πρόβατά σου σήμερον, καὶ διαχώρισον ἐκεῖθεν πᾶν πρόβατον φαιὸν ἐν τοῖς ἀρνάσιν καὶ πᾶν διάλευκον καὶ ῥαντὸν ἐν ταῖς αἰξίν· ἔσται μοι μισθός.  let me pass through all your flock today, removing from it every speckled and spotted sheep and every black lamb, and the spotted and speckled among the goats; and such shall be my wages.אֶעֱבֹר בְּכָל־צֹאנְךָ הַיֹּום הָסֵר מִשָּׁם כָּל־שֶׂה נָקֹד וְטָלוּא וְכָל־שֶׂה־חוּם בַּכְּשָׂבִים וְטָלוּא וְנָקֹד בָּעִזִּים וְהָיָה שְׂכָרִי׃ 32
33καὶ ἐπακούσεταί μοι ἡ δικαιοσύνη μου ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τῇ αὔριον, ὅτι ἐστὶν ὁ μισθός μου ἐνώπιόν σου· πᾶν, ὃ ἐὰν μὴ ᾖ ῥαντὸν καὶ διάλευκον ἐν ταῖς αἰξὶν καὶ φαιὸν ἐν τοῖς ἀρνάσιν, κεκλεμμένον ἔσται παρ' ἐμοί.  So my honesty will answer for me later, when you come to look into my wages with you. Every one that is not speckled and spotted among the goats and black among the lambs, if found with me, shall be counted stolen."וְעָנְתָה־בִּי צִדְקָתִי בְּיֹום מָחָר כִּי־תָבֹוא עַל־שְׂכָרִי לְפָנֶיךָ כֹּל אֲשֶׁר־אֵינֶנּוּ נָקֹד וְטָלוּא בָּעִזִּים וְחוּם בַּכְּשָׂבִים גָּנוּב הוּא אִתִּי׃ 33
34εἶπεν δὲ αὐτῷ Λαβαν Ἔστω κατὰ τὸ ῥῆμά σου.  Laban said, "Good! Let it be as you have said."וַיֹּאמֶר לָבָן הֵן לוּ יְהִי כִדְבָרֶךָ׃ 34
35καὶ διέστειλεν ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ τοὺς τράγους τοὺς ῥαντοὺς καὶ τοὺς διαλεύκους καὶ πάσας τὰς αἶγας τὰς ῥαντὰς καὶ τὰς διαλεύκους καὶ πᾶν, ὃ ἦν λευκὸν ἐν αὐτοῖς, καὶ πᾶν, ὃ ἦν φαιὸν ἐν τοῖς ἀρνάσιν, καὶ ἔδωκεν διὰ χειρὸς τῶν υἱῶν αὐτοῦ.  But that day Laban removed the he-goats that were striped and spotted, and all the she-goats that were speckled and spotted, every one that had white on it, and every lamb that was black, and put them in charge of his sons;וַיָּסַר בַּיֹּום הַהוּא אֶת־הַתְּיָשִׁים הָעֲקֻדִּים וְהַטְּלֻאִים וְאֵת כָּל־הָעִזִּים הַנְּקֻדֹּות וְהַטְּלֻאֹת כֹּל אֲשֶׁר־לָבָן בֹּו וְכָל־חוּם בַּכְּשָׂבִים וַיִּתֵּן בְּיַד־בָּנָיו׃ 35
36καὶ ἀπέστησεν ὁδὸν τριῶν ἡμερῶν ἀνὰ μέσον αὐτῶν καὶ ἀνὰ μέσον Ιακωβ· Ιακωβ δὲ ἐποίμαινεν τὰ πρόβατα Λαβαν τὰ ὑπολειφθέντα. -  and he set a distance of three days' journey between himself and Jacob; and Jacob fed the rest of Laban's flock.וַיָּשֶׂם דֶּרֶךְ שְׁלֹשֶׁת יָמִים בֵּינֹו וּבֵין יַעֲקֹב וְיַעֲקֹב רֹעֶה אֶת־צֹאן לָבָן הַנֹּותָרֹת׃ 36
37ἔλαβεν δὲ ἑαυτῷ Ιακωβ ῥάβδον στυρακίνην χλωρὰν καὶ καρυίνην καὶ πλατάνου, καὶ ἐλέπισεν αὐτὰς Ιακωβ λεπίσματα λευκὰ περισύρων τὸ χλωρόν· ἐφαίνετο δὲ ἐπὶ ταῖς ῥάβδοις τὸ λευκόν, ὃ ἐλέπισεν, ποικίλον.  Then Jacob took fresh rods of poplar and almond and plane, and peeled white streaks in them, exposing the white of the rods.וַיִּקַּח־לֹו יַעֲקֹב מַקַּל לִבְנֶה לַח וְלוּז וְעֶרְמֹון וַיְפַצֵּל בָּהֵן פְּצָלֹות לְבָנֹות מַחְשֹׂף הַלָּבָן אֲשֶׁר עַל־הַמַּקְלֹות׃ 37
38καὶ παρέθηκεν τὰς ῥάβδους, ἃς ἐλέπισεν, ἐν ταῖς ληνοῖς τῶν ποτιστηρίων τοῦ ὕδατος, ἵνα, ὡς ἂν ἔλθωσιν τὰ πρόβατα πιεῖν ἐνώπιον τῶν ῥάβδων, ἐλθόντων αὐτῶν εἰς τὸ πιεῖν,  He set the rods which he had peeled in front of the flocks in the runnels, that is, the watering troughs, where the flocks came to drink. And since they bred when they came to drink,וַיַּצֵּג אֶת־הַמַּקְלֹות אֲשֶׁר פִּצֵּל בָּרֳהָטִים בְּשִׁקֲתֹות הַמָּיִם אֲשֶׁר תָּבֹאןָ הַצֹּאן לִשְׁתֹּות לְנֹכַח הַצֹּאן וַיֵּחַמְנָה בְּבֹאָן לִשְׁתֹּות׃ 38
39ἐγκισσήσωσιν τὰ πρόβατα εἰς τὰς ῥάβδους· καὶ ἔτικτον τὰ πρόβατα διάλευκα καὶ ποικίλα καὶ σποδοειδῆ ῥαντά.  the flocks bred in front of the rods and so the flocks brought forth striped, speckled, and spotted.וַיֶּחֱמוּ הַצֹּאן אֶל־הַמַּקְלֹות וַתֵּלַדְןָ הַצֹּאן עֲקֻדִּים נְקֻדִּים וּטְלֻאִים׃ 39
40τοὺς δὲ ἀμνοὺς διέστειλεν Ιακωβ καὶ ἔστησεν ἐναντίον τῶν προβάτων κριὸν διάλευκον καὶ πᾶν ποικίλον ἐν τοῖς ἀμνοῖς· καὶ διεχώρισεν ἑαυτῷ ποίμνια καθ' ἑαυτὸν καὶ οὐκ ἔμιξεν αὐτὰ εἰς τὰ πρόβατα Λαβαν.  And Jacob separated the lambs, and set the faces of the flocks toward the striped and all the black in the flock of Laban; and he put his own droves apart, and did not put them with Laban's flock.וְהַכְּשָׂבִים הִפְרִיד יַעֲקֹב וַיִּתֵּן פְּנֵי הַצֹּאן אֶל־עָקֹד וְכָל־חוּם בְּצֹאן לָבָן וַיָּשֶׁת־לֹו עֲדָרִים לְבַדֹּו וְלֹא שָׁתָם עַל־צֹאן לָבָן׃ 40
41ἐγένετο δὲ ἐν τῷ καιρῷ, ᾧ ἐνεκίσσησεν τὰ πρόβατα ἐν γαστρὶ λαμβάνοντα, ἔθηκεν Ιακωβ τὰς ῥάβδους ἐναντίον τῶν προβάτων ἐν ταῖς ληνοῖς τοῦ ἐγκισσῆσαι αὐτὰ κατὰ τὰς ῥάβδους·  Whenever the stronger of the flock were breeding Jacob laid the rods in the runnels before the eyes of the flock, that they might breed among the rods,וְהָיָה בְּכָל־יַחֵם הַצֹּאן הַמְקֻשָּׁרֹות וְשָׂם יַעֲקֹב אֶת־הַמַּקְלֹות לְעֵינֵי הַצֹּאן בָּרֳהָטִים לְיַחְמֵנָּה בַּמַּקְלֹות׃ 41
42ἡνίκα δ' ἂν ἔτεκον τὰ πρόβατα, οὐκ ἐτίθει· ἐγένετο δὲ τὰ ἄσημα τοῦ Λαβαν, τὰ δὲ ἐπίσημα τοῦ Ιακωβ.  but for the feebler of the flock he did not lay them there; so the feebler were Laban's, and the stronger Jacob's.וּבְהַעֲטִיף הַצֹּאן לֹא יָשִׂים וְהָיָה הָעֲטֻפִים לְלָבָן וְהַקְּשֻׁרִים לְיַעֲקֹב׃ 42
43καὶ ἐπλούτησεν ὁ ἄνθρωπος σφόδρα σφόδρα, καὶ ἐγένετο αὐτῷ κτήνη πολλὰ καὶ βόες καὶ παῖδες καὶ παιδίσκαι καὶ κάμηλοι καὶ ὄνοι.  Thus the man grew exceedingly rich, and had large flocks, maidservants and menservants, and camels and asses.וַיִּפְרֹץ הָאִישׁ מְאֹד מְאֹד וַיְהִי־לֹו צֹאן רַבֹּות וּשְׁפָחֹות וַעֲבָדִים וּגְמַלִּים וַחֲמֹרִים׃ 43
