30 Mo Reyitšhele a bona gore aa soko belegela Jakobo bana, a jelasela sesi wage ke mokane a re ga Jakobo: “Nneye bana, mo o sa nneye ke nyoko kgwa.” 2 Mo a reyane, Jakobo a kwatela Reyitšhele a re: “A yi nna Modimo nna, Modimo ke yene a makiyeng gore o sa belege.” 3 Byalo Reyitšhele a re: “Lelata laka la ngwannyana Bhilha ke lowa.+ Yetsela naye gore a thogo mpelegela bana, gore le nna ke thogo ba le bana ka taba lage.” 4 A napa a mo neya lelata lage Bhilha gore go be mosadi wage, ke mokane Jakobo a yetsela naye.+ 5 Bhilha a yima, fote mo nako yi kene yi ya a belegela Jakobo morwayi. 6 Ke mokane Reyitšhele a re: “Modimo ke yene wa go n’yahlula fote o kwile lentsu laka a nneya morwayi.” Nka taba lo a mo reyyeng gore ke Dani.*+ 7 Bhilha lelata la Reyitšhele a yima fote, ke mokane a belegela Jakobo morwayi wa mabedi. 8 Reyitšhele a re: “Ke lwile ka matla le sesi waka. Ka fetsa ke hludiye!” A reya ngwanene gore ke Nafthali.*+

9 Mo Lliya a di bona gore aa sa belega, a tseya lelata lage Zilpa a le neya Jakobo gore go be mosadi wage.+ 10 Ke mokane Zilpa lelata la Lliya a belegela Jakobo morwayi. 11 Lliya a re: “Di n’sepelele gabutši!” Byalo a mo reya gore ke Ghada.*+ 12 Ka nthago, Zilpa lelata la Lliya a belegela Jakobo morwayi wa mabedi. 13 Lliya a re: “A ke ya jabola lona! Basadi ba bangwana ba nyoko di bona gore le nna ke jabodiye.”+ A mo reya gore ke Aša.*+

14 Byalo, Rubeni+ o yitseri a sepela tšatši le lengwana ka nako ya go buna korong, a kraya dikgalaka* mone mašomong. A ya a di neya mmane wage Lliya. Ke mokane Reyitšhele a re ga Lliya: “Ke kgopela o ntshele dikgalaka tsone tsa morwayi wago.” 15 Mo a reyane, Lliya a re: “O bona nkare go ntseyela monna ke taba ye nyana?+ O sa nyaka go tseya dikgalaka tsa morwayi waka?” Reyitšhele a re: “Go lukiye. Mo o ka nneya dikgalaka tsa morwayi wago, Jakobo o ko yetsela nago lekgono.”

16 Mo Jakobo a boya mašomong ka malobana, Lliya a tšwa a ye mo gahlanetseng ke mokane a re: “O nyoko yetsela le nna lekgono, ka taba la gore ke patele ka dikgalaka tsa morwayi waka gore o yetsele le nna.” Byalo, Jakobo a yetsela naye. 17 Modimo o mo kwile ga Lliya ke mokane a mo fetola, a yima a belegela Jakobo morwayi wa kapheta. 18 Lliya a re: “Modimo o mpatele ka gore ke neyye monna waka lelata laka.” A mo reya gore ke Isakhara.*+ 19 Lliya a yima fote, mo nako yi kene yi ya a belegela Jakobo morwayi wa kobodi.+ 20 Ke mokane Lliya a re: “Modimo o nneyye selo sa gabutši. Byalo gona, monna waka o nyoko n’yamogela+ ka gore ke mmelegele kobodi ya barwayi.”+ Byalo, a mo reya gore ke Zebhuloni.*+ 21 Ka nthago, a belega morwediya a mo reya gore ke Dina.+

22 Modimo a fetsa a gupudiye Reyitšhele, Modimo a mo kwa ke mokane a mo fetola, a maka gore a yime.*+ 23 A yima, a belega morwayi. Ke mokane a re: “Modimo o mmakiye motho!”+ 24 Reyitšhele a mo reya gore ke Josefa,*+ ka gore ke mo a re: “Jehova o nneyye morwayi ye mongwana.”

25 Ka nthago ga gore Reyitšhele a belege Josefa, Jakobo a napa a re ga Labane: “Ntisetse ke sepele ke ye nageng ya geru ga mašaga yaka.+ 26 Nneye basadi baka le bana baka ba gore ke go berekele gore ke ba kraye, gore ke sepele ka gore le wene wa di tšiba gore ke go berekele.”+ 27 Labane a re gage: “Ke kgopela gore o sa sepele, di šupa nkare Jehova o nrufa ka taba lago.” 28 A tokegela ka gore: “Mpotse gore ke go patele ka ying, ke nyoko go neya tsona.”+ 29 Byalo Jakobo a re gage: “Le wene wa di tšiba gore ne ke go berekela fote morape wago wo šinnye wo gola ka taba la gore ne wo disa ke nna;+ 30 ke mo go le wo monyana nakwela ke soko tla, mara gana byalo ke wo mogolo ka matla fote Jehova o go rufiye go tlugisela ke segele. Byalo nna mutši waka ke nyoko wo berekela neng?”+

31 Labane a re: “O nyaka ke go neye ying?” Ke mokane Jakobo a re: “O sa nneye selo! Mo o ka mmakela selo sowa ka ssoši ke nyoko ya mahlong ke disa morape wago fote ke wo pasopa.+ 32 Ke nyoko ya hala morapeng wago lekgono. Hlawola dinku tsa go ba le ditwabatwaba, mabalabala le tse dibhraweni ga dinku tso tse dinyana tsa phoolo, o hlawole le dipudi tsa tshadi tsa go ba le mabalabala le ditwabatwaba. Go tlugisela gana byalo, tsowa go nyoko ba patela yaka.+ 33 Tšatši lo o tlang o tl’le bona morape waka o ko di bona gore ne ke tshepega; mo o ka kraya dipudi tsa tshadi tsa gore a di na ditwabatwaba kela mabalabala ga tso tsaka le dinku tse dinyana tsa phoolo tse dibhraweni di ra gore nko ba ke di yetswiye.”

34 Mo a reyane, Labane a re: “Go lukiye! Go be ka mokgo o hlayang.”+ 35 Ka tšatši lone, a hlawola dipudi tsa phoolo tsa go ba le methalothalo le tsa mabalabala, a hlawola le dipudi tsa tshadi tsa go ba le ditwabatwaba le mabalabala, a hlawola dinku ka mokana ga tsona tse dinyana tsa phoolo tsa go ba le botšhwewu le tse dibhraweni a di neya barwayi bage gore ba di pasope. 36 Ka nthago, Labane a tseya morape wage a sepela nawo leyeto la go ka lekana kararo ya matšatši, ke mokane Jakobo a šala a disa merape ya Labane yo yi šeleng.

37 Jakobo a kupa diphate tsa mohlare wa storeksi,* wa alimondi le wa mophleyini,* a di betla gore di be le ditwabatwaba tse ditšhwewu. 38 Ke mokane a beya diphate tsone tsa gore o di betliye mahlong ga morape, a di beya mo dikareng ga gore di nwela gona meetši gore mo di tl’le nwa meetši di gowele mahlong ga diphate tsone.

39 Byalo, morape ke mo wo gowela mahlong ga diphate tsone, fote wo tswala tsa go ba le methalothalo, ditwabatwaba le mabalabala. 40 Ke mokane Jakobo a hlawola dinku tse dinyana tsa phoolo a di beyela ka thoko, a maka gore morape wo libane le tso tsa go ba le methalothalo le tse dibhraweni ga morape wa Labane. Jakobo a hlawola morape wage, a sa wo gahlanisi le wa Labane. 41 Fote mo tso tsa gore di tiyelele di gowela, Jakobo ne a beya diphate tsela mo dikareng, a di beya mo mahlong ga merape gore di gowele mahlong ga diphate tsone. 42 Mara ne a sa beye diphate mo go gowela tso tsa gore di ya lelemela. Byalo, tso tsa go lelemela ke mo go ba tsa Labane mara tso tsa go philega ke mo go ba tsa Jakobo.+

43 Jakobo a napa a ghanya ka matla, a ba le merape ye megolo le malata ya banna le ya basadi le dikamela le dibhongholo.+
