Mui 31
1 Ya: igobe da La: iba: ne egefelali ilia sia: i amane, “Ya: igobe da ninia ada ea gagui huluane wamolai dagoi. Ea gagui huluane da ninia ada ea musa: gagui liligi,” amo sia: Ya: igobe da nabi.
But afterwards, he heard the words of the sons of Laban, saying, “Jacob has taken all that was our father’s, and being enlarged by his ability, he has become famous.”
2 Musa: La: iba: ne da ema asigisu be wali da hame asigi, amo amola e da ba: i galu.
Likewise, he observed that Laban’s face was not the same toward him as it was yesterday and the day before.
3 Amalalu, Hina Gode da ema amane sia: i, “Dia ada amola dia fi dunu ilia sogega buhagima. Na da di sigi masunu.”
Most importantly, the Lord was saying to him, “Return to the land of your fathers and to your generation, and I will be with you.”
4 Amaiba: le, Ya: igobe da La: isele amola Lia amo ela da gisi odagiaba sogebi amo ganodini ea sibi gilisili dialebe ba: i, amoga e yosia: musa: misa: ne sia: i.
He sent and called for Rachel and Leah, in the field where he pastured the flocks,
5 E da elama amane sia: i, “Alia ada da ea musa: hou fisili, wali nama hame asigisa, na da ba: i dagoi. Be na ada ea Gode da na fidimusa: lelu.
and he said to them: “I see that your father’s face is not the same toward me as it was yesterday and the day before. But the God of my father has been with me.
6 Alia dawa: ! Na da na gasa huluane amoga dia ada ea hawa: hamosu.
And you know that I have served your father with all my strength.
7 Be e da nama ogogoi. Amola e da na muni logo nabuane afadenei. Be Gode da fidibiba: le, e da na hame wadela: lesi.
Even so, your father has circumvented me, and he has changed my wages ten times. And yet God has not permitted him to harm me.
8 La: iba: ne da, ‘Daginisisi gadofo goudi da dia bidi lamu gala’ amo sia: noba, goudi huluane da daginisisi agoane lalelegei. Amola e da, ‘gadofo fifi hamoi goudi amola da dia bidi lamu gala’ amo sia: noba, goudi huluane da gadofo fifi agoane ba: i.
Whenever he said, ‘The speckled will be your wages,’ all the sheep gave birth to speckled newborns. Yet truly, when he said the contrary, ‘You will take whatever is white for your wages,’ all the flocks gave birth to white ones.
9 Gode da dia ada gebo fi huluane fadegale, nama i dagoi.
And it is God who has taken your father’s substance and given it to me.
10 Eso afaega, eso amoga lai ohe fi da mano lasu hou hamosa, amo esoga na da simasia ba: i agoane, goudi gawali huluane da aseme ilima mano lama: ne hamomusa: doaga: loba, ilia huluane da fifi amola daginisisi amola hoholei agoane ba: i.
For after the time had arrived for the ewes to conceive, I lifted up my eyes, and I saw in my sleep that the males climbing on the females were of variegated, and spotted, and diverse colors.
11 Simasia ganodini, Gode Ea a: igele dunu da nama amane sia: i, ‘Ya: igobe!’ Na bu adole i, ‘Na wea!’
And the Angel of God said to me in my sleep, ‘Jacob.’ And I responded, ‘Here I am.’
12 Amalalu, E da amane sia: i, ‘Ba: le gadoma! Goudi gawali huluane da mano lasu hou hamosa, huluane da fifi amola daginisisi amola hoholei fawane. Na da La: iba: ne ea hou dima hamonana, amo Na ba: i dagoiba: le, amo hou hamoi dagoi.
And he said: ‘Lift up your eyes, and see that all the males climbing on the females are variegated, spotted, and also speckled. For I have seen all that Laban has done to you.
13 Na da Bedele (amoga di da igi busafugulu modale ligiagamusa: , olife susuligi sogadigili, gasa bagade Nama fa: no bobogema: ne sia: i) amo sogebi Gode esala. Wahadafa dia liligi momagele, amo soge yolesili dia sogedafa amoga buhagima.’”
I am the God of Bethel, where you anointed the stone and made a vow to me. Now therefore arise, and depart from this land, returning to the land of your nativity.’”
14 La: isele amola Lia da Ya: igobema bu adole i, “Ania ada ema ani nana liligi lamu da hamedei.
And Rachel and Leah responded: “Have we anything left behind among the resources and inheritance of our father’s house?
15 Ea da ani ga fi agoane ba: sa. E da ani bidi lai dagoi amola wali e da muni huluane ani bidi lama: ne lai, amo huluane e da ha: digi dagoi.
Has he not considered us as foreigners, and sold us, and consumed our price?
16 Muni amola liligi huluane amo Gode da La: iba: nema fadegai, amo huluane da ninia: amola ninia mano ilia: Di Gode Ea hamoma: ne sia: i defele hamoma.”
But God has taken our father’s riches and handed these to us and to our sons. Therefore, do all that God has instructed you.”
17 Amalalu Ya: igobe da ea liligi huluane momagele, ea ada ea diasu Ga: ina: ne soge ganodini amoga buhagimusa: momagei. E da ea mano huluane amola ea uda ga: mele da: iya fila heda: ma: ne sia: i. Ea sibi amola ea goudi gilisisu, e bisima: ne sefasi. E da liligi huluane e da Mesoubouda: imia sogega lai, amo gaguli asi.
And so Jacob rose up, and having placed the children and his wives upon camels, he went forth.
And he took all his substance and flocks, and whatever he had acquired in Mesopotamia, and he journeyed to his father Isaac, in the land of Canaan.
19 La: iba: ne da ea sibi hinabo damumusa: asi dagoi ba: i. La: isele da ea ada ea loboga hamoi ogogosu ‘gode’ liligi amo wamolai.
At that time, Laban had gone to shear the sheep, and so Rachel stole her father’s idols.
20 Ya: igobe amola da La: iba: nema ogogoi. E da hobea: i be La: iba: ne hame adoi.
And Jacob was not willing to confess to his father-in-law that he was fleeing.
21 Amaiba: le, ea liligi huluane gaguli, e da hobea: i. E da Iufala: idisi Hano degele, Gilia: de goumi soge amoga doaga: musa: asi.
And when he had gone away with all such things that were justly his, and, having crossed the river, was continuing on toward Mount Gilead,
22 Eso udiana asili, La: iba: ne da Ya: igobe ea hobea: i nabi.
it was reported to Laban on the third day that Jacob had fled.
23 E da ea fi dunu sigi asili, eso fesuale fa: no bobogele, Gilia: de goumi sogega, Ya: igobema doaga: i.
And taking his brothers with him, he pursued him for seven days. And he overtook him at Mount Gilead.
24 Amalalu, La: iba: ne da simasia, Gode da ema amane sia: i, “Dawa: ma! Ya: igobema maedafa baduguma!”
And he saw in a dream, God saying to him, “Beware that you not speak anything harsh against Jacob.”
25 La: iba: ne da Ya: igobema doaga: loba, Ya: igobe da ea abula diasu Gilia: de goumi soge amo ganodini gagui dialebe ba: i. La: iba: ne amola ea fi dunu da amoga ilia abula diasu gaguli esalu.
And now Jacob had pitched his tent at the mountain. And when he, with his brothers, had overtaken him, he set his tent at the same place at Mount Gilead.
26 Amalalu, La: iba: ne da Ya: igobema amane sia: i, “Di da abuliba: le nama ogogoi, amola na uda mano amo uda da gasawane gegei ganodini suguli lai defele, hiouginana asi dagoi.
And he said to Jacob: “Why have you acted this way, departing from me in secret, with my daughters like captives of the sword?
27 Abuli nama ogogole, mae adole udigili hobea: i. Di da nama adole ba: loba, na da di hahawane asigi gesami hea: su amola sani baidama amola eno liligi dusa asili, di asunasila: loba.
Why would you want to flee without my knowledge and without telling me, though I might have led you forward with gladness, and songs, and timbrels, and lyres?
28 Di udigili hobea: iba: le, na mano amola na aowa asigibio nonogomu da hamedei ba: i. Amo da gagaoui hou di da hamoi.
You have not permitted me to kiss my sons and daughters. You have acted foolishly. And now, indeed,
29 Na da di wadela: musa: gasa gala. Be aya gasia Gode da nama sisasu. E da di mae badugama: ne, nama sia: i.
my hand has power to repay you with harm. But the God of your father said to me yesterday, ‘Beware that you not speak anything stern against Jacob.’
30 Di da dia sogedafa amoga buhagimu hanaiba: le fisili asi, amo na dawa: Be di da abuliba: le na fi loboga hamoi ‘gode’ liligi wamolabala?”
It may be that you desired to go to your own, and that you longed for the house of your father. But why have you stolen my gods?”
31 Ya: igobe da bu adole i, “Di da dia uda mano amo bu samogesa: besa: le, na hobea: i.
Jacob answered: “I set out, unknown to you, because I feared that you might take away your daughters by violence.
32 Be nowa da dia loboga hamoi ‘gode’ liligi wamolai, amo ninia da fane legemu. Wali ninia fi dunu da ba: su dunu esala. Di hogoi helema. Adi liligi da dia liligi ba: sea, defea, bu lama.” La: isele da La: iba: ne ea ‘gode’ liligi wamolai, amo Ya: igobe da hame dawa: i galu.
But, since you accuse me of theft, with whomever you will find your gods, let him be slain in the sight of our brothers. Search; anything of yours that you will find with me, take it away.” Now when he said this, he did not know that Rachel had stolen the idols.
33 La: iba: ne da asili, Ya: igobe ea abula diasu ganodini hogoi. Amalalu, e da Lia abula diasuga asi, amola udigili hawa: hamosu uda aduna amo ela diasu. Be ea ‘gode’ liligi hame ba: i. Amalalu, e da La: isele ea diasuga asi.
And so Laban, entering the tent of Jacob, and of Leah, and of both the handmaids, did not find them. And when he had entered the tent of Rachel,
34 La: isele da amo ‘gode’ liligi lale, ga: mele ea baligiga legesu esa amo ganodini salawane, amo da: iya fi galu. La: iba: ne da abula diasu huluane hogoi helele, hame ba: i.
she quickly hid the idols under the camel’s bedding, and she sat upon them. And when he had searched the entire tent and found nothing,
35 La: isele da ea adama amane sia: i, “Ada! Nama mae ougima! Na da wa: legadomu gogolei galebe. Na da oubiga sioi fi galebe,” e ogogole amane sia: i. La: iba: ne da hogoi helele, be ea loboga hamoi ‘gode’ hame ba: i.
she said: “Do not be angry, my lord, that I am unable to rise up in your sight, because it has now happened to me according to the custom of women.” So his careful search was thwarted.
36 Amalalu, Ya: igobe da mi hanai galu. E ougili amane sia: i, “Na da adi wadela: i hou hamobela: ? Na da adi sema fibiba: le, di da nama benea ahoasu dunu defele nama se bobogebela: ?
And Jacob, being inflated, said with contention: “For which fault of mine, or for what sin of mine, have you become so enraged against me
37 Di da na liligi ganodini hogoi helebeba: le, dia liligi ba: bela: ? Amai galea, gadili ligisili, dia dunu amola na dunu da fofada: lalu, ninia da moloidafa dunu ba: mu.
and searched all the items of my house? What have you found from all the substance of your house? Place it here before my brothers, and your brothers, and let them judge between me and you.
38 Na da wali ode 20 agoane, dia hawa: hamosu. Dia sibi amola dia goudi da mano bagohame lai dagoi. Sibi gawali dia sibi gilisisu amo ganodini esalebe, na da hamedafa mai.
For what reason have I been with you for twenty years? Your ewes and she-goats were not barren; the rams of your flocks I did not consume.
39 Sibi da gasonasu ohe fi amoga medole legei ba: loba, na da nisu dabe i. Na da na hou dodofemusa: amo medole legei liligi dima hame gaguli misi. Esoga o gasi ganodini, liligi wamolai ba: loba, di da nama fawane dabe lai dagoi.
Neither did I reveal to you what was seized by the wild beast. I replaced all that was damaged. Whatever was lost by theft, you collected it from me.
40 Eso bagohame na da se nabi. Esoga eso gia: i bagade amola gasi ganodini anegagi. Na da golamu gogolei.
Day and night, I was burned by heat and by frost, and sleep fled from my eyes.
41 Amo hou da ode 20 agoane na da dia sogega esalu, agoaiwane ba: i. Ode 14 na da dia uda mano aduna bidi lama: ne udigili hawa: hamosu. Ode 6 amoga na da dia lai gebo gilisisu ouligisu. Na da na sibi amola goudi gilisisu lama: ne hawa: hamosu. Di amola da amo ganodini na bidi nabuane agoane afadenei.
And in this way, for twenty years, I have served you in your house: fourteen for your daughters, and six for your flocks. You have also changed my wages ten times.
42 Na ada A: ibalaha: me amola Aisage ela Gode da na hame fidi ganiaba, di da na udigili bidi mae lalewane asunasila: loba. Be Gode da na se nabasu amola na hawa: hamosu ba: i dagoi. Aya gasia E da dima gagabole sia: ne, Ea fofada: su hamoi dima olelei dagoi.”
If the God of my father Abraham and the fear of Isaac had not been close to me, perhaps by now you would have sent me away naked. But God looked kindly on my affliction and the labor of my hands, and he rebuked you yesterday.”
43 La: iba: ne da Ya: igobema bu adole i, “Amo uda da na mano esala. Ilia manolali da na manolali. Lai gebo gilisisu huluane guiguda: goe da na: Liligi huluane di guiguda: ba: sa, amo da na liligi. Be na da na mano amola ilia mano gagumusa: hamedei ba: sa.
Laban answered him: “My daughters and sons, and your flocks, and all that you discern are mine. What can I do to my sons and grandchildren?
44 Amaiba: le, na da dima gousa: su hamomu gala. Ninia amo mae gogolema: ne, igi gilisili bi ilegele hamomu da defea.”
Come, therefore, let us enter into a pact, so that it may be a testimony between me and you.”
45 Amaiba: le, Ya: igobe da igi afae lale, wanonesisu hamoma: ne ligisi.
And so Jacob took a stone, and he set it up as a memorial.
46 Ea sia: beba: le, ea dunu da igi eno gilisili, bi hamoi. Amalalu, amo igi gilisi bi dafulili, ilia da lolo mai.
And he said to his brothers, “Bring stones.” And they, gathering together stones, made a tomb, and they ate upon it.
47 La: iba: ne da amo igi bi dio asuli amo Yiga Sa: ihaduda. Ya: igobe da amo igi bi dio eno asuli amo Ga: liede. (Hibulu sia: - Mae Gogolema: ne Bi Gagui).
And Laban called it, ‘Tomb of Witness,’ and Jacob, ‘Pile of Testimony;’ each of them according to the fitness of his own language.
48 La: iba: ne da Ya: igobema amane sia: i, “Amo igi bi da anima mae gogolema: ne ilegei dialumu.” Amaiba: le, amo sogebi ea dio da Ga: liede.
And Laban said: “This tomb will be a witness between me and you this day.” (And for this reason, its name has been called Gilead, that is, ‘Tomb of Witness.’)
49 La: iba: ne da eno amane sia: i, “Ania da afafamuba: le, Gode da ani noga: le ba: mu da defea.” Amaiba: le, amo sogebi dio eno da Misiba. (Ba: su Sogebi).
“May the Lord consider and judge between us, when we will have withdrawn from one another.
50 La: iba: ne e da amane sia: i, “Di da na uda mano wadela: lesisia o eno uda lasea, ania da afafamuba: le na da hame dawa: mu. Be mae gogolema. Gode da ani ba: lala.
If you afflict my daughters, and if you bring in other wives over them, no one is a witness of our words except God, who understands beforehand.”
51 Igi bi na hamoi da goea. Amola amo da mae gogolema: ne igi diala.
And again he said to Jacob. “Lo, this tomb and the stone that I have set up between me and you,
52 Amo igi bi amola igi ilegei da agoane olelesa. Na da di doagala: musa: masea, amo igi bi baligimu da sema bagade. Amola di da nama doagala: musa: ahoasea, amo baligimu da sema bagade.
will be a witness. This tomb,” I say, “and the stone, they are for testimony, in case either I cross beyond it going toward you, or you cross beyond it thinking to harm me.
53 A: ibalaha: me ea Gode amola Na: iho ea Gode da anima fofada: su dunu esala.” Amalalu Ya: igobe da Gode (Ema ea eda Aisage da nodone sia: ne gadosu) amo Ea Dioba: le, amo sema noga: le dawa: ma: ne, dafawane ilegele sia: i.
May the God of Abraham, and the God of Nahor, the God of their father, judge between us.” Therefore, Jacob swore by the fear of his father Isaac.
54 E da ohe afae fane, gobele salasu hou amo goumia hamone, ea fi dunu amo lolo moma: ne sia: i. Ha: i nanu, ilia amo gasia goumi da: iya esalu.
And after he had immolated sacrifices on the mountain, he called his brothers to eat bread. And when they had eaten, they lodged there.
55 Hahabedafa, La: iba: ne da ea aowa huluane amola ea uda mano ilima asigibio nonogonanu, hi diasuga buhagimusa: fisili asi.
In truth, Laban rose up in the night, and he kissed his sons and daughters, and he blessed them. And he returned to his place.
