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.”
Slišal pa je besede Labánovih sinov, rekoč: »Jakob je vzel vse, kar je bilo našega očeta, in od tega, kar je bilo našega očeta, je dobil vso to slavo.«
2 And Jacob saw from the countenance of Laban that his attitude toward him had changed.
Jakob je gledal Labánovo obličje in glej, ni bilo proti njemu kakor poprej.
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.”
Gospod je Jakobu rekel: »Vrni se v deželo svojih očetov in k svojemu sorodstvu in jaz bom s teboj.«
4 So Jacob sent word and called Rachel and Leah to the field where his flocks were,
Jakob je poslal in poklical Rahelo in Leo na polje k svojemu tropu
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.
ter jima rekel: »Vidim obličje vajinega očeta, da le-to do mene ni kakor poprej, toda Bog mojega očeta je bil z menoj.
6 You know that I have served your father with all my strength.
Vedve vesta, da sem z vso svojo močjo služil vajinemu očetu.
7 And although he has cheated me and changed my wages ten times, God has not allowed him to harm me.
Vajin oče pa me je zavedel in mi desetkrat spremenil moja plačila, toda Bog mu ni dovolil, da bi me prizadel.
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.
Če je rekel tako: ›Lisasta bodo tvoja plačila; ‹ potem je vsa živina kotila lisaste. Če pa je rekel tako: ›Krožno progasta bodo tvoja najemnina, ‹ potem je vsa živina kotila krožno progaste.
9 Thus God has taken away your father’s livestock and given them to me.
Tako je Bog odvzel živino od vajinega očeta in jo dal meni.
10 When the flocks were breeding, I saw in a dream that the streaked, spotted, and speckled males were mating with the females.
Pripetilo se je ob času, ko se je živina obrejila, da sem povzdignil svoje oči in videl sanje in glej ovni, ki so skakali na živino, so bili krožno progasti, lisasti in sivi.
11 In that dream the angel of God said to me, ‘Jacob!’ And I replied, ‘Here I am.’
In Božji angel mi je v sanjah spregovoril, rekoč: ›Jakob.‹ Rekel sem: ›Tukaj sem.‹
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.
Rekel je: ›Povzdigni torej svoje oči in poglej, vsi ovni, ki skačejo na živino, so krožno progasti, lisasti in sivi, kajti videl sem vse, kar ti je Labán storil.
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.’”
Jaz sem Bog Betela, kjer si mazilil steber in mi zaobljubil prisego. Sedaj vstani, pojdi ven iz te dežele in se vrni v deželo svojega sorodstva.‹«
14 And Rachel and Leah replied, “Do we have any portion or inheritance left in our father’s house?
Rahela in Lea sta mu odgovorili in rekli: » Ali je še kak delež ali dediščina za naju v hiši najinega očeta?
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.
Ali nisva pri njem šteti [kakor] tujki? Kajti prodal naju je in popolnoma požrl tudi najin denar.
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.”
Kajti vsa bogastva, ki jih je Bog vzel od najinega očeta, ta so najina in najinih otrok. Sedaj torej karkoli ti je Bog rekel, stôri.«
17 Then Jacob got up and put his children and his wives on camels,
Potem je Jakob vstal in svoje sinove in svoji ženi posadil na kamele
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.
in odvedel proč vso svojo živino in vse svoje dobrine, ki jih je pridobil, živino od svojega zaslužka, ki jo je pridobil v Padan–aramu, da bi šel k svojemu očetu Izaku v kánaansko deželo.
19 Now while Laban was out shearing his sheep, Rachel stole her father’s household idols.
Labán je odšel, da ostriže svoje ovce. Rahela pa je ukradla malike, ki so bili [od] njenega očeta.
20 Moreover, Jacob deceived Laban the Aramean by not telling him that he was running away.
Jakob se je nenadoma odtihotapil od Sirca Labána, v tem, da mu ni povedal, da je pobegnil.
21 So he fled with all his possessions, crossed the Euphrates, and headed for the hill country of Gilead.
Tako je pobegnil z vsem, kar je imel in vstal ter prečkal reko in svoje obličje nameril proti gori Gileád.
22 On the third day Laban was informed that Jacob had fled.
Labánu je bilo tretji dan povedano, da je Jakob pobegnil.
23 So he took his relatives with him, pursued Jacob for seven days, and overtook him in the hill country of Gilead.
S seboj je vzel svoje brate in ga zasledoval sedem dni potovanja in dohiteli so ga na gori Gileád.
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.”
Bog je prišel ponoči, v sanjah, k Sircu Labánu ter mu rekel: »Pazi, da Jakobu ne govoriš niti dobrega niti slabega.«
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.
Potem je Labán dohitel Jakoba. Torej Jakob je svoj šotor postavil na gori, Labán pa se je s svojimi brati utaboril na gori Gileád.
26 Then Laban said to Jacob, “What have you done? You have deceived me and carried off my daughters like captives of war!
Labán je rekel Jakobu: »Kaj si storil, da si se nenadoma odtihotapil od mene in odvedel moji hčeri kakor ujetnici vzeti z mečem?
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.
Zakaj si skrivaj pobegnil in se odtihotapil od mene in mi nisi povedal, da bi te lahko odposlal z veseljem in s pesmimi, z bobniči in s harfo?
28 But you did not even let me kiss my grandchildren and my daughters goodbye. Now you have done a foolish thing.
Nisi mi dovolil, da poljubim svoje sinove in svoje hčere? To si torej s takšnim početjem storil nespametno.
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.’
V moči moje roke je, da vam škodujem. Toda sinoči mi je govoril Bog tvojega očeta, rekoč: ›Pazi se, da Jakobu ne govoriš niti dobrega niti slabega.‹
30 Now you have gone off because you long for your father’s house. But why have you stolen my gods?”
In sedaj, čeprav imaš potrebo oditi, ker si že dolgo hrepenel po hiši svojega očeta, zakaj si vendar ukradel moje bogove?«
31 “I was afraid,” Jacob answered, “for I thought you would take your daughters from me by force.
Jakob je odgovoril in Labánu rekel: »Ker sem se bal, kajti rekel sem: ›Morda mi hočeš s silo odvzeti svoji hčeri.‹
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.
Pri komerkoli najdeš svoje bogove, naj ta ne živi. Pred svojimi brati spoznaj kar je tvojega z menoj in to vzemi k sebi.« Kajti Jakob ni vedel, da jih je ukradla Rahela.
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.
Labán je odšel v Jakobov šotor in v Lein šotor in v šotore obeh dekel, toda ni jih našel. Potem je odšel od Leinega šotora in vstopil v Rahelin šotor.
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.
Torej Rahela je vzela družinske malike in jih položila na kamelino opravo in sedla nanje. Labán pa je preiskal ves šotor, toda ni jih našel.
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.
Svojemu očetu pa je rekla: »Naj moj gospod ne bo razžaljen, da ne morem vstati pred teboj, kajti običaj žensk je nad menoj.« In iskal je, toda podob ni našel.
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?
Jakob je bil ogorčen in se pričkal z Labánom in Jakob je odgovoril ter Labánu rekel: »Kaj je moj prekršek? Kaj je moj greh, da si me tako silovito zasledoval?
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.
Glede na to, da si preiskal vse moje stvari, kaj si našel od vseh svojih družinskih stvari? Položi to tukaj pred mojimi brati in svojimi brati, da lahko sodijo med nama obema.
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.
Teh dvajset let sem bil s teboj. Tvoje ovce in tvoje koze niso zavrgle svojih mladičev in ovnov tvojega tropa nisem jedel.
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.
Tega, kar je bilo raztrganega od živali, nisem prinesel k tebi. Sam sem nosil to izgubo. Iz mojih rok si zahteval karkoli je bilo ukradenega podnevi ali ukradenega ponoči.
40 As it was, the heat consumed me by day and the frost by night, and sleep fled from my eyes.
Tak sem bil. Podnevi me je požirala suša in zmrzal ponoči in moje spanje je odšlo izpred mojih oči.
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!
Tako sem bil dvajset let v tvoji hiši. Služil sem ti štirinajst let za tvoji hčeri in šest let za tvojo živino, ti pa si mi desetkrat spremenil moja plačila.
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.”
Razen če ne bi bil z menoj Bog mojega očeta, Abrahamov Bog in Izakov strah, bi me sedaj zagotovo odposlal praznega. Bog je videl mojo stisko in trud mojih rok in te je včerajšnjo noč oštel.«
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?
Labán je odgovoril in Jakobu rekel: » Ti hčeri sta moji hčeri in ti otroci so moji otroci in ta živina je moja živina in vse, kar vidiš, je moje. In kaj naj danes storim tema svojima hčerama ali njunim otrokom, ki sta jih rodili?
44 Come now, let us make a covenant, you and I, and let it serve as a witness between you and me.”
Zdaj torej pridi, skleniva zavezo, ti in jaz; in naj bo to za pričo med menoj in teboj.«
45 So Jacob picked out a stone and set it up as a pillar,
Jakob je vzel kamen in ga postavil za steber.
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.
Jakob je rekel svojim bratom: »Zberite kamne; « in vzeli so kamne ter naredili kup in jedli tam na kupu.
47 Laban called it Jegar-sahadutha, and Jacob called it Galeed.
Labán ga je imenoval Jegár Sahadutá, toda Jakob ga je imenoval Galéd.
48 Then Laban declared, “This mound is a witness between you and me this day.” Therefore the place was called Galeed.
Labán je rekel: »Ta kup je danes priča med menoj in teboj.« Zato je bilo ime le-tega imenovano Galéd
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.
in Micpa, kajti rekel je: » Gospod gleda med menoj in teboj, ko smo odsotni eden od drugega.
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.”
Če boš prizadel moji hčeri ali če boš poleg mojih hčera vzel druge žene, ni z nama nobenega človeka. Glej, Bog je priča med menoj in teboj.«
51 Laban also said to Jacob, “Here is the mound, and here is the pillar I have set up between you and me.
Labán je rekel Jakobu: »Glej ta kup in glej ta steber, ki sem ga postavil med menoj in teboj.
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.
Ta kup naj bo priča in ta steber naj bo priča, da ne bom šel čez ta kup k tebi in da ne boš šel čez ta kup k meni zaradi škodovanja.
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.
Bog Abrahamov in Bog Nahórjev, Bog njunega očeta, [naj] sodi med nama.« In Jakob je prisegel pri strahu svojega očeta Izaka.
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.
Potem je Jakob na gori žrtvoval klavno daritev in poklical svoje brate, da jedo kruh. Jedli so kruh in se vso noč zadrževali na gori.
55 Early the next morning, Laban got up and kissed his grandchildren and daughters and blessed them. Then he left to return home.
Zgodaj zjutraj je Labán vstal, poljubil svoje sinove in svoje hčere ter jih blagoslovil in Labán je odpotoval ter se vrnil na svoj kraj.
