3 Ke mo ba kgokolosa letlapa lo le kwadiyeng sediba mo merape ka moka yi šele yi le gona, ba yi neya meetši, ka nthago ba kgokolosa letlapa lela gore ba kwale sediba sone.
4 Byalo Jakobo a re ga bona: “Ye bowweru, le tšwa kaye?” bona ba re: “Re tšwa Harane.”
5 A re ga bona: “Le ya mo tšiba Labane motlogolo wa Nahore?” bona ba re: “Re ya mo tšiba.”
6 Mo ba reyane, a re ga bona: “O sa tsugiye?” Bona ba re: “O sa tsugiye. Fote morwediya wage Reyitšhele ke yewa o tla le dinku!”
7 Yene a re: “Go sa le motshegare. A go so be nako ya go kgobaketsa merape. Yi neyeneng meetši, le yi yise gore ye kguleng.”
8 Mo a reyane, ba re: “A re ya tshwanela go yi neya meetši go segela merape ka moka yi kgobakanne, ke gona re nyoko kgokolosang letlapa lowa le kwadiyeng sediba. Ke mokane re nyoko neya dinku tsowa meetši.”
9 Mo a kene a sa bolabola nabo, Reyitšhele a tla le dinku tsa papage ka taba la gore ke mo a disa.
10 Mo Jakobo a bona Reyitšhele morwediya wa Labane bhuti wa mmane wage, a bona le dinku tsa Labane, Jakobo a napa a tlosa letlapa lela hala sedibeng a neya dinku tsa Labane bhuti wa mmane wage meetši.
11 Jakobo a khisa Reyitšhele, a yahlamela ke mokane a lla.
12 Ke mokane Jakobo a thomisa go hlayisela Reyitšhele gore ke lešaga* la papage le gore ke morwayi wa Rebhekha. Reyitšhele a taboga a ye botsa papage.
13 Mo Labane a kwa ka Jakobo morwayi wa sesi wage, a taboga a ye mo gahlanetseng. A segela a mo haka, a mo khisa, a mo yisa ntlong yage. Ke mokane Jakobo a thomisa go botsa Labane dilo tso ka moka.
14 Labane a re gage: “Wene o lešaga laka.”* A dula naye kgwedi ka moka.
15 Labane a re ga Jakobo: “A di nyake o fo mperekela mahala ka taba la gore ke wene lešaga* laka. Mpotse, ke go patele ka ying?”
16 Byalo Labane ke mo a na le barwediya ka babedi. Lebitso la ye mogolo go le Lliya, la ye monyana go le Reyitšhele.
17 Maahlo ya Lliya ke mo ma sa bafala mara Reyitšhele ke mo go le mosadi wa go bafala ka matla.
18 Jakobo ke mo a mo nyaka ka matla ga Reyitšhele, byalo a re: “Ke tikemisele go go berekela mengwaga kašupa ya yona gore ke kraye morwediya wago ye monyana Reyitšhele.”
19 Mo a reyane, Labane a re: “Go kawone gore ke mo neye wene ke sa mo neye monna ye mongwana. Ariye mahlong o dula le nna.”
20 Byalo Jakobo a bereka mengwaga kašupa ya yona gore a kraye Reyitšhele, mara mo gage ke mo go fo ba nkare ke matšatšinyana ka taba la gore ke mo a mo nyaka ka matla.
21 Jakobo a re ga Labane: “Nneye mosadi waka ke ye yetsela naye ka taba la gore matšatši yaka ya gore ke go berekele ma fediye.”
22 Mo a reyane, Labane a hlekeletsa banna ba mone polekeng a maka monyanya.
23 Mara bošego byone, a kgeta go tseya morwediya wage Lliya, a mo neya Jakobo gore a yetsele naye.
24 Labane a tseya le lelata lage la mosadi Zilpa a maka gore go be lelata la morwediya wage Lliya.
25 Ka bošego, Jakobo a di bona gore ke Lliya! Byalo a re ga Labane: “O mmakiye ying? Anthe a ke ya berekela gore ke kraye Reyitšhele? Ke ntaba o mmakiye bošakašakane?”
26 Mo a reyane, Labane a re: “Setšo sa rune a se dumele gore morwediya ye monyana a šadhe ye mogolo a soko šadha.
27 O fo fetsa beke o na le mosadi yewa. Ka nthago ga mone, ke nyoko go neya yewa ye mongwana mo o ka mperekela mengwaga ye mengwana kašupa ya yona.”
28 Jakobo a maka ka mokgonone, a fetsa beke le mosadi yene, ka nthago Labane a mo neya morwediya wage Reyitšhele gore go be mosadi wage.
29 Labane a tseya lelata lage la mosadi Bhilha a maka gore go be lelata la morwediya wage Reyitšhele.
30 Ke mokane Jakobo a yetsela le Reyitšhele, a napa a nyaka Reyitšhele ka matla go phala Lliya, a berekela Labane mengwaga ye mengwana kašupa ya yona.
31 Mo Jehova a di bona gore Lliya a ba mo nyake,* a maka gore a yime mara Reyitšhele ke mo a sa belege.
32 Byalo Lliya a yima a belega morwayi, a mo reya gore ke Rubeni,* ka taba la gore ke mo a re: “Jehova o di bonne gore ke ya hlupega, gana byalo monnaka o nyoko thomisa go nnyaka.”
33 A yima fote a belega morwayi ke mokane a re: “Jehova o ntheetsele, ke mokane a nneya morwayi ye mongwana ka gore monnaka aa nnyake.” A mo reya gore ke Simiyoni.*
34 A boya a yima fote a belega morwayi, a re: “Byalo gona monnaka o nyoko kwana le nna ka taba la gore ke mmelegele barwayi kararo (3) ya bona.” Ba mo reya gore ke Llifi.*
35 A yima fote a belega morwayi, a re: “Gana byalo ke nyoko thanaka Jehova.” A mo reya gore ke Juda.* Ka nthago ga hone, a tšwa a yemme a sa belege.
