16 拉班有两个女儿，大的名叫利亚，小的名叫拉结。
Now Laban had two daughters； the name of the older was Leah； and the name of the younger was Rachel。
17 利亚的眼睛没有神气，拉结却生得美貌俊秀。
Leah had weak eyes； but Rachel was lovely in form； and beautiful。
18 雅各爱拉结，就说，我愿为你小女儿拉结服事你七年。
Jacob was in love with Rachel and said； 〃I'll work for you seven years in return for your younger daughter Rachel。〃
19 拉班说，我把她给你，胜似给别人，你与我同住吧。
Laban said； 〃It's better that I give her to you than to some other man。 Stay here with me。〃
20 雅各就为拉结服事了七年。他因为深爱拉结，就看这七年如同几天。
So Jacob served seven years to get Rachel； but they seemed like only a few days to him because of his love for her。
21 雅各对拉班说，日期已经满了，求你把我的妻子给我，我好与她同房。
Then Jacob said to Laban； 〃Give me my wife。 My time is pleted； and I want to lie with her。〃
22 拉班就摆设筵席，请齐了那地方的众人。
So Laban brought together all the people of the place and gave a feast。
23 到晚上，拉班将女儿利亚送来给雅各，雅各就与她同房。
But when evening came； he took his daughter Leah and gave her to Jacob； and Jacob lay with her。
24 拉班又将婢女悉帕给女儿利亚作使女。
And Laban gave his servant girl Zilpah to his daughter as her maidservant。
25 到了早晨，雅各一看是利亚，就对拉班说，你向我作的是什么事呢？我服事你，不是为拉结吗？你为什么欺哄我呢？
When morning came； there was Leah！ So Jacob said to Laban； 〃What is this you have done to me？ I served you for Rachel； didn't I？ Why have you deceived me？〃
26 拉班说，大女儿还没有给人，先把小女儿给人，在我们这地方没有这规矩。
Laban replied； 〃It is not our custom here to give the younger daughter in marriage before the older one。
27 你为这个满了七日，我就把那个也给你，你再为她服事我七年。
Finish this daughter's bridal week； then we will give you the younger one also； in return for another seven years of work。〃
28 雅各就如此行。满了利亚的七日，拉班便将女儿拉结给雅各为妻。
And Jacob did so。 He finished the week with Leah； and then Laban gave him his daughter Rachel to be his wife。
29 拉班又将婢女辟拉给女儿拉结作使女。
Laban gave his servant girl Bilhah to his daughter Rachel as her maidservant。
30 雅各也与拉结同房，并且爱拉结胜似爱利亚，于是又服事了拉班七年。
Jacob lay with Rachel also； and he loved Rachel more than Leah。 And he worked for Laban another seven years。
31 耶和华见利亚失宠（原文作被恨下同），就使她生育，拉结却不生育。
When the LORD saw that Leah was not loved； he opened her womb； but Rachel was barren。
32 利亚怀孕生子，就给他起名叫流便（就是有儿子的意思），因而说，耶和华看见我的苦情，如今我的丈夫必爱我。
Leah became pregnant and gave birth to a son。 She named him Reuben； for she said； 〃It is because the LORD has seen my misery。 Surely my husband will love me now。〃
33 她又怀孕生子，就说，耶和华因为听见我失宠，所以又赐给我这个儿子。于是给他起名叫西缅（就是听见的意思）。
She conceived again； and when she gave birth to a son she said； 〃Because the LORD heard that I am not loved； he gave me this one too。〃 So she named him Simeon。
34 她又怀孕生子，起名叫利未（就是联合的意思），说，我给丈夫生了三个儿子，他必与我联合。
Again she conceived； and when she gave birth to a son she said； 〃Now at last my husband will bee attached to me； because I have borne him three sons。〃 So he was named Levi。
35 她又怀孕生子，说，这回我要赞美耶和华，因此给他起名叫犹大（就是赞美的意思）。这才停了生育。
She conceived again； and when she gave birth to a son she said； 〃This time I will praise the LORD。〃 So she named him Judah。 Then she stopped having children。
1 拉结见自己不给雅各生子，就嫉妒她姐姐，对雅各说，你给我孩子，不然我就死了。
When Rachel saw that she was not bearing Jacob any children； she became jealous of her sister。 So she said to Jacob； 〃Give me children； or I'll die！〃
2 雅各向拉结生气，说，叫你不生育的是神，我岂能代替他作主呢？
Jacob became angry with her and said； 〃Am I in the place of God； who has kept you from having children？〃
3 拉结说，有我的使女辟拉在这里，你可以与她同房，使她生子在我膝下，我便因她也得孩子（得孩子原文作被建立）。
Then she said； 〃Here is Bilhah； my maidservant。 Sleep with her so that she can bear children for me and that through her I too can build a family。〃
4 拉结就把她的使女辟拉给丈夫为妾。雅各便与她同房，
So she gave him her servant Bilhah as a wife。 Jacob slept with her；
5 辟拉就怀孕，给雅各生了一个儿子。
and she became pregnant and bore him a son。
6 拉结说，神伸了我的冤，也听了我的声音，赐我一个儿子，因此给他起名叫但（就是伸冤的意思）。
Then Rachel said； 〃God has vindicated me； he has listened to my plea and given me a son。〃 Because of this she named him Dan。
7 拉结的使女辟拉又怀孕，给雅各生了第二个儿子。
Rachel's servant Bilhah conceived again and bore Jacob a second son。
8 拉结说，我与我姐姐大大相争，并且得胜，于是给他起名叫拿弗他利（就是相争的意思）。
Then Rachel said； 〃I have had a great struggle with my sister； and I have won。〃 So she named him Naphtali。
9 利亚见自己停了生育，就把使女悉帕给雅各为妾。
When Leah saw that she had stopped having children； she took her maidservant Zilpah and gave her to Jacob as a wife。
10 利亚的使女悉帕给雅各生了一个儿子。
Leah's servant Zilpah bore Jacob a son。
11 利亚说，万幸，于是给他起名叫迦得（就是万幸的意思）。
Then Leah said； 〃What good fortune！〃 So she named him Gad。
12 利亚的使女悉帕又给雅各生了第二个儿子。
Leah's servant Zilpah bore Jacob a second son。
13 利亚说，我有福阿，众女子都要称我是有福的，于是给他起名叫亚设（就是有福的意思）。
Then Leah said； 〃How happy I am！ The women will call me happy。〃 So she named him Asher。
14 割麦子的时候，流便往田里去，寻见风茄，拿来给他母亲利亚。拉结对利亚说，请你把你儿子的风茄给我些。
During wheat harvest； Reuben went out into the fields and found some mandrake plants； which he brought to his mother Leah。 Rachel said to Leah； 〃Please give me some of your son's mandrakes。〃
15 利亚说，你夺了我的丈夫还算小事吗？你又要夺我儿子的风茄吗？拉结说，为你儿子的风茄，今夜他可以与你同寝。
But she said to her； 〃Wasn't it enough that you took away my husband？ Will you take my son's mandrakes too？〃 〃Very well；〃 Rachel said； 〃he can sleep with you tonight in return for your son's mandrakes。〃
16 到了晚上，雅各从田里回来，利亚出来迎接他，说，你要与我同寝，因为我实在用我儿子的风茄把你雇下了。那一夜，雅各就与她同寝。
So when Jacob came in from the fields that evening； Leah went out to meet him。 〃You must sleep with me；〃 she said。 〃I have hired you with my son's mandrakes。〃 So he slept with her that night。
17 神应允了利亚，她就怀孕，给雅各生了第五个儿子。
God listened to Leah； and she became pregnant and bore Jacob a fifth son。
18 利亚说，神给了我价值，因为我把使女给了我丈夫。于是给他起名叫以萨迦（就是价值的意思）。
Then Leah said； 〃God has rewarded me for giving my maidservant to my husband。〃 So she named him Issachar。
19 利亚又怀孕，给雅各生了第六个儿子。
Leah conceived again and bore Jacob a sixth son。
20 利亚说，神赐我厚赏。我丈夫必与我同住，因我给他生了六个儿子。于是给他起名西布伦（就是同住的意思）。
Then Leah said； 〃God has presented me with a precious gift。 This time my husband will treat me with honor； because I have borne him six sons。〃 So she named him Zebulun。
21 后来又生了一个女儿，给她起名叫底拿。
Some time later she gave birth to a daughter and named her Dinah。
22 神顾念拉结，应允了她，使她能生育。
Then God remembered Rachel； he listened to her and opened her womb。
23 拉结怀孕生子，说，神除去了我的羞耻。
She became pregnant and gave birth to a son and said； 〃God has taken away my disgrace。〃
24 就给他起名叫约瑟（就是增添的意思），意思说，愿耶和华再增添我一个儿子。
She named him Joseph； and said； 〃May the LORD add to me another son。〃
25 拉结生约瑟之后，雅各对拉班说，请打发我走，叫我回到我本乡本土去。
After Rachel gave birth to Joseph； Jacob said to Laban； 〃Send me on my way so I can go back to my own homeland。
26 请你把我服事你所得的妻子和儿女给我，让我走。我怎样服事你，你都知道。
Give me my wives and children； for whom I have served you； and I will be on my way。 You know how much work I've done for you。〃
27 拉班对他说，我若在你眼前蒙恩，请你仍与我同住，因为我已算定，耶和华赐福与我是为你的缘故。
But Laban said to him； 〃If I have found favor in your eyes； please stay。 I have learned by divination that the LORD has blessed me because of you。〃
28 又说，请你定你的工价，我就给你。
He added； 〃Name your wages； and I will pay them。〃
29 雅各对他说，我怎样服事你，你的牲畜在我手里怎样，是你知道的。
Jacob said to him； 〃You know how I have worked for you and how your livestock has fared under my care。
30 我未来之先，你所有的很少，现今却发大众多，耶和华随我的脚步赐福与你。如今，我什么时候才为自己兴家立业呢？
The little you had before I came has increased greatly； and the LORD has blessed you wherever I have been。 But now； when may I do something for my own household？〃
31 拉班说，我当给你什么呢？雅各说，什么你也不必给我，只有一件事，你若应承，我便仍旧牧放你的羊群�
