< Genesis 31 >

1 Now Jacob heard that Laban’s sons were saying, “Jacob has taken away all that belonged to our father and built all this wealth at our father’s expense.”
Lebani mofavre naga'mo'za agriku'ma nehaza ke'ma Jekopu'ma antahi'neana amanage hu'naze, Jekopu'a nerafa zana maka eri vaganereno, nerafa zanteti agra feno vahe fore huno manie.
2 And Jacob saw from the countenance of Laban that his attitude toward him had changed.
Hanki Jekopu'a Lebani avu'ava'ma keana ko'ma nehiaza osuno, avugosa hunenanteno ha' vahe'mo hiaza hu'ne.
3 Then the LORD said to Jacob, “Go back to the land of your fathers and to your kindred, and I will be with you.”
Ana nehigeno Ra Anumzamo'a anage huno Jekopuna asmi'ne, Nagra kagrane manigahuanki ete negafane vaheka'a moparega vuo.
4 So Jacob sent word and called Rachel and Leah to the field where his flocks were,
Higeno Jekopu'a ana kema nentahino'a afu'zagama zamavareno ome zamate'noma mani'nerega e'ogu, Resoline, Liagiznirega ke atreznantegeke,
5 and he told them, “I can see from your father’s countenance that his attitude toward me has changed; but the God of my father has been with me.
anante akeno amanage huno zanasmi'ne, neranafa'a ko'ma nehiaza huno nagranena kiza zokago huno menina omanie. Hagi avugosamo'a ruzahu nehige'na negoe. Hianagi nenfa Anumzamo'a nagrane mani'ne.
6 You know that I have served your father with all my strength.
Nagrama neranafa eri'zama tusi namu'na sisi nehige'na hanaveni'a atre'nama eri'noana, tanagra nageta antahita hu'na'e.
7 And although he has cheated me and changed my wages ten times, God has not allowed him to harm me.
Anama hu'nogura agesa ontahino, renavatga huno mizani'a 10ni'a zupa eri antenaga henka hu'ne. Hianagi Anumzamo'a atregeno nazeri havizana osu'ne.
8 If he said, ‘The speckled will be your wages,’ then the whole flock bore speckled offspring. If he said, ‘The streaked will be your wages,’ then the whole flock bore streaked offspring.
Kora Lebani'a amanage huno nasmi'neane, maka'a tupri tapri azoka'ene afu'zaga eri'za enerina mizanka'e, higeno tupri tapri ke'za fore hu'ne. Hagi agrono tegre ramira mizanka'e hiana, anazanke hu'ne.
9 Thus God has taken away your father’s livestock and given them to me.
E'ina higeno Anumzamo'a neranafa azampintira memeramine, sipisipiramine, rama'a nagri avre nami vagare'ne.
10 When the flocks were breeding, I saw in a dream that the streaked, spotted, and speckled males were mating with the females.
Hanki afu'zagamo'ma agafima ahea knafi amanahu ava'na ke'noe. Maka'a ve mememofo avufgarera tupri tapri ene agrono krerami krerami hu'nea azoka me'nege'na negogeno, a' mememofo agumpina mareri'ne.
11 In that dream the angel of God said to me, ‘Jacob!’ And I replied, ‘Here I am.’
Anumzamofo ankeromo'a ava'nafi amanage huno nagia ahe'ne. Jekopuo! Hige'na ama mani'noe hu'na hugeno,
12 ‘Look up,’ he said, ‘and see that all the males that are mating with the flock are streaked, spotted, or speckled; for I have seen all that Laban has done to you.
Anumzamofo ankeromo'a amanage hu'ne, tupri tapri'ene avon krerami'nea ve meme zagamo'a a' meme agumpima marerime neviana, kesga hunka ko, Lebani'ma maka'a avu'ava zama hunegante'mofona, Nagra ko ke'noe.
13 I am the God of Bethel, where you anointed the pillar and made a solemn vow to Me. Now get up and leave this land at once, and return to your native land.’”
Nagra Betelima efore'ma hugenka have eri atru hunka masave taginka frenentenka navufi huvempa hu'nana Anumzamo'na nehuanki menina otinka ama kumara atrenka, fore'ma hu'nana kumatega vuo huno hu'ne.
14 And Rachel and Leah replied, “Do we have any portion or inheritance left in our father’s house?
Higeke Resolike, Liakea ana naneke nentahi'ne, amanage hu'na'e. Tagra nerafa afu fenompintira mago'zama erisu'a zana huhampri orante'neanki, na'a hugahu'e?
15 Are we not regarded by him as outsiders? Not only has he sold us, but he has certainly squandered what was paid for us.
Hagi nerfa'a ko hurantegeta ruregati emani vahe kna hu'noe. Tagrira ko mizante tatre'ne, Tagriteti afufeno eriana ko ana afu fenona atre hana hu'ne.
16 Surely all the wealth that God has taken away from our father belongs to us and to our children. So do whatever God has told you.”
Tamage nerfa azampinti Anumzamo'a maka zana kagri hanare kamiana, e'i ana maka zana tagri'ene mofavre'tine suzane. E'ina hu'negu Anumzamo'ma kasami'niaza huo.
17 Then Jacob got up and put his children and his wives on camels,
Hagi Jekopu'a maka a'mofavre'a, kemori afutamimofo zamagumpi zamavarentere nehuno,
18 and he drove all his livestock before him, along with all the possessions he had acquired in Paddan-aram, to go to his father Isaac in the land in Canaan.
maka'a afu'ane, fenoma'ane emani'neno eritru hu'nea zana zogi hana huno Padan-Aram mopa atreno, Kenani moparega nefa Aisaki'ma mani'nerega vu'ne.
19 Now while Laban was out shearing his sheep, Rachel stole her father’s household idols.
Hagi Lebani'a afete umani'neno, sipisipi azoka neharegeno, Kenanima vunaku'ma retrotra nehazageno'a, Resoli'a nompi marerino Lebani'ma havi anumzante mono hunentea zana, musufa seno erino vu'ne.
20 Moreover, Jacob deceived Laban the Aramean by not telling him that he was running away.
Jekopu'a Arameania nera Lebanina osami revatga nehuno freno vu'ne.
21 So he fled with all his possessions, crossed the Euphrates, and headed for the hill country of Gilead.
Jekopu'a maka zama'a enerino otino fre'no vuno, Yufretis tina takaheno Gileati agonarega avugosa hunteno vu'ne.
22 On the third day Laban was informed that Jacob had fled.
Hagi taregna evutege'za anante knazupa mago'a vahe'mo'za, Jekopu'a hago katreno fre'ne hu'za Lebanina ome asami'naze.
23 So he took his relatives with him, pursued Jacob for seven days, and overtook him in the hill country of Gilead.
Lebani'a ananke nentahino naga'a nezamavareno Jekopuna arotgo hu'za vu'naze. Hagi agene re'nazana 7ni'a hanine, zagene karanka mase'naze. Hagi Jekopu'a Gileati agonafi mani'nege'za ome azeri'naze.
24 But that night God came to Laban the Aramean in a dream and warned him, “Be careful not to say anything to Jacob, either good or bad.”
Hianagi Anumzamo'a Arameani ne' Lebanina kenage ava'nafi efore humino anage huno asami'ne, Kva huo, Jekopuna magore hunka so'e kefi havigea huonto.
25 Now Jacob had pitched his tent in the hill country of Gilead when Laban overtook him, and Laban and his relatives camped there as well.
Jekopu'a seli no omegino agonafi mase'negeno, Lebani'a ana agonafi Jekopu'na ome azeri'ne. Hagi Lebani'a vahe'ane mago kaziga seli no omegino, Gileati agonafi mase'naze.
26 Then Laban said to Jacob, “What have you done? You have deceived me and carried off my daughters like captives of war!
Lebani'a anage huno Jekopuna asami'ne, Kagra nahigenka renavatga hutenka mofani'ararena hapinti kina huzmante'za zamavare'za frazankna hunka zamavarenka e'nane?
27 Why did you run away secretly and deceive me, without even telling me? I would have sent you away with joy and singing, with tambourines and harps.
Nahigenka okura frenka renavatga hu'nane, nasminke'nasinia, muse nehu'za tambori'nine, zavena nehe'za hugantagenka tatrenka asine.
28 But you did not even let me kiss my grandchildren and my daughters goodbye. Now you have done a foolish thing.
Hagi nahigenka nasminke'na nagehe'ine, mofani'ararena zamantako nehu'na huso'e huzmantogenka zamavarenka ome'nane? Kagra mago kefo avu'avaza hu'nane.
29 I have power to do you great harm, but last night the God of your father said to me, ‘Be careful not to say anything to Jacob, either good or bad.’
Nagrira hanaveni'a me'neankina, kagrira ha' kahenaku e'noanagi, meni kenagera masenogeno negafa Anumzamo'a amanage huno nasmi'ne, Jekopuna azeri koro osuo, magore hunka havi keo, so'e keo huonto huno nasmi'ne.
30 Now you have gone off because you long for your father’s house. But why have you stolen my gods?”
Nagra antahi'noe natrenka'ma anana, na'ankure negafa nonku tusiza huno kvenesigenke. Hianagi nahigenka anumzani'a noni'afintira kumzafa senka e'nane?
31 “I was afraid,” Jacob answered, “for I thought you would take your daughters from me by force.
Higeno Jekopu'a ana kemofo nona'a amanage huno Lebanina asami'ne, Na'ankure nagrama antahuana hanavetinka mofa trenka'a hanaregahane nehu'na koro hu'na oku'a e'no'e.
32 If you find your gods with anyone here, he shall not live! In the presence of our relatives, see for yourself if anything is yours, and take it back.” For Jacob did not know that Rachel had stolen the idols.
Aza'o mago'mo'ma ana anumzanka'a erino e'nesnimofona hakrenka erifore hanankeno'a, anamo'a frigahie. Nege'nagenka nagati'amofo zamufi mago'a kagri zama nagri fenompima me'neniana erigahane. Hagi Resoli'ma musufa seno e'negura Jekopu'a ontahi'neno, anahu kea hu'ne.
33 So Laban went into Jacob’s tent, then Leah’s tent, and then the tents of the two maidservants, but he found nothing. Then he left Leah’s tent and entered Rachel’s tent.
Lebani'a, Jekopu seli nompi ome agafa huno hakreteno, Lia seli nompi ome keteno, tare eri'za a' tremokizni seli nompi keme viana onke'ne. Anantera Lia seli nona atreno Resoli seli nompi umareri'ne.
34 Now Rachel had taken Laban’s household idols, put them in the saddlebag of her camel, and was sitting on them. And Laban searched everything in the tent but found nothing.
Resoli'a ana havi anumza erino vuno kemorimofo agofetu ante'za nemaniza tra'mofo agu'afinka ome anteteno, agofetu manino rentrako hu'ne. Hagi Lebani'a hakreno vano hiana keno eri fore osu'ne.
35 Rachel said to her father, “Sir, do not be angry that I cannot stand up before you; for I am having my period.” So Laban searched, but could not find the household idols.
Resoli'a amanage huno nefana asami'ne, O'maotisnua zankura ranimoka kea onasuo, ika kri'ma enerua kna ege'na mani'noe. Lebani'a maka zampina hakreno keno eviana ana havi anumzama'a kefore osu'ne.
36 Then Jacob became incensed and challenged Laban. “What is my crime?” he said. “For what sin of mine have you so hotly pursued me?
Jekopuna asi vazigeno ke ha' Lebanina renteno, Lebaninkura amanage hu'ne, Nagra mago zanka'a eri haviza hu'nogenka amanahura nehano? Naza mago havizana hugante'nogenka navaririnka ne-enka, haha'ene kea hunenantane?
37 You have searched all my goods! Have you found anything that belongs to you? Put it here before my brothers and yours, that they may judge between the two of us.
Nagri feno zama re'nanana, naza magora kagri zana nonka'afintira eri'na e'nogenka hakrenka erifore hane? Hakrenkama erifore hu'nenunka, tavufi eri atru hugeta, nagri vahe'ene, kagri vahe enena negeta eri fatgo ha'mneno.
38 I have been with you for twenty years now. Your sheep and goats have not miscarried, nor have I eaten the rams of your flock.
Hagi 20'a kafumofo agu'afima eri'za erigante'noana a' sipisipimo'o, a' mememo'o magore huno anentara kase havizana, nosige'na ve sipisipi afu zagaka'afintira magore hu'na ahena one'noe.
39 I did not bring you anything torn by wild beasts; I bore the loss myself. And you demanded payment from me for what was stolen by day or night.
Hanki afi zagamo'ma afu'zagama aheno nege'na, kagrira eme onkasami'na, ferupi kenagepi afu'zagafinti kumazafa sazage'na, nona'a nagra'a suampinti avre'na kegina ka'afi eme antetere hu'noe.
40 As it was, the heat consumed me by day and the frost by night, and sleep fled from my eyes.
Ana nehu'na zage knafina zage hara tusiza huno nave'nesigeno, kenagera tusiza huno zasimo'a nazeri kragenefege'na, magore hu'na navura mase so'e hutere osu'noe.
41 Thus for twenty years I have served in your household—fourteen years for your two daughters and six years for your flocks—and you have changed my wages ten times!
Hagi nagra kagri nompina e'inahu zana 20'a zagegafu hu'noe. Nagra 14ni'a zagegfufi tarega mofaka'ama eri'nakura eri'zana eri'noe. 6si'a kafufina afu'zagaka'ama kegava hu eri'za eri'noe. Ana nehugenka mizani'a 10ni'a zupa eri fenka anaga hu'nane.
42 If the God of my father, the God of Abraham and the Fear of Isaac, had not been with me, surely by now you would have sent me away empty-handed. But God has seen my affliction and the toil of my hands, and last night He rendered judgment.”
Hianagi nenageho Abrahamu Anumzama, nafa'nia Aisaki'ma koro hunenteno mono'ma hunentea Anumzamo'ma nagranema omani'nesina, antahuana kagra menina naza navapa hunantanke'na osine. Hianagi narimpa knazampi mani'noa zane hanave eri'zama eri'noa zanena Anumzamo'a nenageno, kenagera hanavetino nanekea eme hugantene.
43 But Laban answered Jacob, “These daughters are my daughters, these sons are my sons, and these flocks are my flocks! Everything you see is mine! Yet what can I do today about these daughters of mine or the children they have borne?
Lebani'a ke nona amanage huno Jekopuna asmi'ne, Tare mofatrena nagri mofatre mani'na'e. Hanki mofavre zaga nagri mofavre zage, afu'zaga nagri afu'zage, maka zama neganana nagrike zane. Hianagi mofatreni'ane mofavrema kase zamante'na'ana menina nagra inankna huzmantegahue?
44 Come now, let us make a covenant, you and I, and let it serve as a witness between you and me.”
E'ina hu'negu menina egeta, naneke huvempa huteta, have zogita emeri atru huntesukeno amu'nonti'afi me'nena, henka ama ana avamezama negenuta'a, amama huhagerafu'a zankura tagesa antahitere hugahu'e.
45 So Jacob picked out a stone and set it up as a pillar,
Jekopu'a mago avame'za za'za have ome erino anante retrureno asenenteno,
46 and he said to his relatives, “Gather some stones.” So they took stones and made a mound, and there by the mound they ate.
naga'a ke hige'za mago'ene havea eri'za anante kevu vazintete'za, ana have kevumofo tvaonte kave ne'naze.
47 Laban called it Jegar-sahadutha, and Jacob called it Galeed.
Lebani'a ana havemofo agi'a Jegar-sahaduta'e huno Aramea kefina nehuno, Ama have atrumo huragesa hugahie huno ante'ne. Hianagi Jekopu'a Hibru kefina Galitie huno agi'a nenteno, ama have atrumo hu tagesa hugahie huno ante'ne.
48 Then Laban declared, “This mound is a witness between you and me this day.” Therefore the place was called Galeed.
Lebani'a amanage hu'ne, amama eritru hu'a havemo menina avame'za amu'nonti'afina megahie. Hu'ne nehu'ne ana havemofo agi'a Galitie hu'ne ante'na'e.
49 It was also called Mizpah, because Laban said, “May the LORD keep watch between you and me when we are absent from each other.
Ete mago agi'a Mizpae hu'ne ante'na'e. Lebani'a amanage hu'ne. Tagra afete mani'neta oge age osuta mani'neta maka avu'ava'ma hanu'ana, Ra Anumzamo agrake tagegahie.
50 If you mistreat my daughters or take other wives, although no one is with us, remember that God is a witness between you and me.”
Hagi kagrama mofa'nimokizni hazenke ati zanamige, mago ru a'ne erige hananana, amunonti'afina magora vahera omani'nazanki Anumzamo agrake tagegahie.
51 Laban also said to Jacob, “Here is the mound, and here is the pillar I have set up between you and me.
Lebani'a mago'ene Jekopuna anage huno asami'ne, Antahio, za'za havema asento'a negenka, amama oti'no'a amu'nontiafima eri atru hu'a havea ko.
52 This mound is a witness, and this pillar is a witness, that I will not go past this mound to harm you, and you will not go past this mound and pillar to harm me.
Amama mani'neta huvempa huta asento'a havemo, amu'nontiafi me'nena, nagra ama ana havea agatere'na krimpa eri haviza hu'zana osugahue. Hagi kagra eri atru hunto'a havene, asento'a havene agaterenka narimpa eri havizana osuo.
53 May the God of Abraham and the God of Nahor, the God of their father, judge between us.” So Jacob swore by the Fear of his father Isaac.
Hagi Abrahamu Anumzane, Nahori Anumzane, neznafa Anumzamo amu'nontiafina refko hurantegahie. Hagi Jekopu'a nefa Aisaki'ma koro hunenteno mono'ma hunentea Anumzamofonte huvempa hu'ne.
54 Then Jacob offered a sacrifice on the mountain and invited his relatives to eat a meal. And after they had eaten, they spent the night on the mountain.
Jekopu'a e'i ana agonafi Kresramana vu ne'za kreno Anumzamofontega ofa hunenteno naga'a zamagi hutru hige'za nete'za, ana agonafi mase'naze.
55 Early the next morning, Laban got up and kissed his grandchildren and daughters and blessed them. Then he left to return home.
Lebani'a nanterame otino mofatrema'ane, agehe'ine nezmavatagino zamantako nehuno, asomu ke huzmante'ne. Ana huteno, Lebani'a kuma'arega ete vu'ne.
