Genesis 31
1 And Jacob heard the words of the sons of Laban, saying, Jacob has taken all that was our father's, and of our father's property has he gotten all this glory.
Jakobo nowinjo ni yawuot Laban ne wacho niya, “Jakobo osekawo gik ma wuonwa nigo duto kendo oseyudo mwandugi duto koa kuom wuonwa.”
2 And Jacob saw the countenance of Laban, and behold it was not toward him as before.
Kendo Jakobo noneno ni pach Laban ok nikode kaka chon.
3 And the Lord said to Jacob, Return to the land of thy father, and to thy family, and I will be with thee.
Eka Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Jakobo niya, “Dogi e pinyu ir oweteni kendo abiro bet kodi.”
4 And Jacob sent and called Lea and Rachel to the plain where the flocks were.
Kuom mano Jakobo nooro wach ne Rael kod Lea mondo gibi e lek kumane okwayoe.
5 And he said to them, I see the face of your father, that it is not toward me as before, but the God of my father was with me.
Nowachonegi niya, “Aneno ni paro ma wuonu nigo koda ok en paro mane en-go mokwongo, kata kamano Nyasach wuora osebedo koda.
6 And ye too know that with all my might I have served your father.
Ungʼeyo kaka asetiyo ne wuonu gi tekra duto.
7 But your father deceived me, and changed my wages for the ten lambs, yet God gave him not [power] to hurt me.
To wuonu osewuonda ka oloko chudona nyadipar. To kata kamano, Nyasaye ok oseweyo otimona marach.
8 If he should say thus, The speckled shall be thy reward, then all the cattle would bear speckled; and if he should say, The white shall be thy reward, then would all the cattle bear white.
Wuonu nowacho ni, ‘Mago ma kitgi angʼech nobed pokni;’ eka jamni duto nonywolo mago ma kitgi angʼech kende, to bende kane owacho ni, ‘Mago ma kitgi rabok nobed pokni,’ eka jamni duto nonywolo mana mago ma kitgi rabok.
9 So God has taken away all the cattle of your father, and given them to me.
Kuom mano Nyasaye osekawo kweth mag jamni mag wuonu kendo osemiyagi.
10 And it came to pass when the cattle conceived and were with young, that I beheld with mine eyes in sleep, and behold the he-goats and the rams leaping on the sheep and the she-goats, speckled and variegated and spotted with ash-coloured spots.
“E kinde mane jamni mathuondi dwaro luwo jamni mamon, naleko ni nywogi duto mane oluwo jamni mamon ne gin mago man-gi kido marabok gi mago man-gi kido marangʼech kod mago man-gi kido mopogore opogore.
11 And the angel of God said to me in a dream, Jacob; and I said, What is it?
Malaika mar Nyasaye noluonga e lek ni, ‘Jakobo.’ Eka nadwoke ni, ‘An ka.’
12 And he said, Look up with thine eyes, and behold the he-goats and the rams leaping on the sheep and the she-goats, speckled and variegated and spotted with ash-coloured spots; for I have seen all things that Laban does to thee.
Eka malaika nomedo wachona ni, ‘Tingʼ wangʼi kendo ineye kaka nywogi duto maluwo diek gin rabok, angʼech kod ma dikiyo, nimar aseneno gik moko duto ma Laban osebedo katimoni.
13 I am God that appeared to thee in the place of God where thou anointedst a pillar to me, and vowedst to me there a vow; now then arise and depart out of this land, depart into the land of thy nativity, and I will be with thee.
An e Nyasaye mane ofwenyoreni Bethel kamane iwiroe siro gi mo kendo kama ne isingori kikwongʼori ne an. Koro wuogi ia e pinyni kendo idog thuru.’”
14 And Rachel and Lea answered and said to him, Have we yet a part or inheritance in the house of our father?
Eka Rael kod Lea nodwoke niya, “Bende pod wadongʼ gi pok moro amora e mwandu wuonwa?
15 Are we not considered strangers by him? for he has sold us, and quite devoured our money.
Donge tinde okwanowa mana kaka jomoko nono? Ok en mana ni osechiwowa kende, to osechano nyaka mwandu duto mane okendwa.
16 All the wealth and the glory which God has taken from our father, it shall be our's and our children's; now then do whatsoever God has said to thee.
Adier mwandu duto ma Nyasaye osegolo kuom wuonwa gin mawa kod nyithindwa. Omiyo tim gimoro amora ma Nyasaye osenyisi.”
17 And Jacob arose and took his wives and his children up on the camels;
Eka Jakobo nokawo nyithinde kod monde mi oketo ewi ngamia,
18 and he took away all his possessions and all his store, which he had gotten in Mesopotamia, and all that belonged to him, to depart to Isaac his father in the land of Chanaan.
kendo nosembo jambe duto e nyime kaachiel gi gik moko duto mane osechoko e piny Padan Aram, mondo odhi ir Isaka wuon-gi e piny Kanaan.
19 And Laban went to shear his sheep; and Rachel stole her father's images.
Kane Laban osedhi ngʼado yie rombe, Rael nokwalo nyiseche mag wuon-gi.
20 And Jacob hid [the matter from] Laban the Syrian, so as not to tell him that he ran away.
To kata kamano, Jakobo nowuondo Laban ja-Aram ka ok onyise ni odok thurgi.
21 And he departed himself and all that belonged to him, and passed over the river, and went into the mountain Galaad.
Kuom mano noringo gi mago mane en-go duto, kendo nongʼado Aora koluwo yo mochomo piny gode mag Gilead.
22 But it was told Laban the Syrian on the third day, that Jacob was fled.
E odiechiengʼ mar adek Laban nowinjo ni Jakobo osepondo modhi.
23 And having taken his brethren with him, he pursued after him seven days' journey, and overtook him on Mount Galaad.
Nokawo wedene molawo Jakobo; kuom ndalo abiriyo; kendo nojuke e piny gode mag Gilead.
24 And God came to Laban the Syrian in sleep by night, and said to him, Take heed to thyself that thou speak not at any time to Jacob evil things.
Eka Nyasaye nofwenyore ne Laban ja-Aram gotieno e lek mi owachone niya, “Ne ni ok iwachone Jakobo gimoro amora, maber kata marach.”
25 And Laban overtook Jacob; and Jacob pitched his tent in the mountain; and Laban stationed his brothers in the mount Galaad.
Ka Laban nojuko Jakobo noyudo ka oseguro hembe e piny gode mag Gilead kendo mi en bende gi wedene noguro hembe kanyo.
26 And Laban said to Jacob, What hast thou done? wherefore didst thou run away secretly, and pillage me, and lead away my daughters as captives taken with the sword?
Eka Laban nopenjo Jakobo niya, “En angʼo ma isetimoni? Isewuonda kendo iseringa gi nyiga mana ka joma omak e lweny.
27 Whereas if thou hadst told me, I would have sent thee away with mirth, and with songs, and timbrels, and harp.
Ere gima nomiyo iringo lingʼ-lingʼ ka akia? Angʼo ma nomoni nyisa, mondo omi asewi gi mor kiwerni kendo igoni thum?
28 And I was not counted worthy to embrace my children and my daughters; now then thou hast wrought foolishly.
Bende ne ok iweyo agoyoni oriti gi nyiga gi nyikwaya. Kuom mano isetimo gima ofuwo.
29 And now my hand has power to hurt thee; but the God of thy father spoke to me yesterday, saying, Take heed to thyself that thou speak not evil words to Jacob.
Ngʼe ni an-gi teko mar hinyi, to Nyasach wuonu ne onyisa otieno manyoro ni, ‘Ne ni ok iwachone Jakobo gimoro amora, maber kata marach.’
30 Now then go on thy way, for thou hast earnestly desired to depart to the house of thy father; wherefore hast thou stolen my gods?
Angʼeyo ni nyoro iwuok nikech siso ma in-go mar dok ir joodu. To angʼo momiyo nyoro ikwalo nyisechena?”
31 And Jacob answered and said to Laban, Because I was afraid; for I said, Lest at any time thou shouldest take away thy daughters from me, and all my possessions.
Jakobo nodwoko Laban niya, “Ne aluor nikech nyo aparo ni dipo ka imaya nyigi githuon.
32 And Jacob said, With whomsoever thou shalt find thy gods, he shall not live in the presence of our brethren; take notice of what I have of thy property, and take it; and he observed nothing with him, but Jacob knew not that his wife Rachel had stolen them.
To ngʼato angʼata ma iyudo gi nyisechegi ok nokwo. E nyim jowagi, rang in iwuon giri moro amora madabedgo kendo ka iyudo to kaw.” To Jakobo ne ok ongʼeyo ni Rael nosekwalo nyisechego.
33 And Laban went in and searched in the house of Lea, and found [them] not; and he went out of the house of Lea, and searched in the house of Jacob, and in the house of the two maid-servants, and found them not; and he went also into the house of Rachel.
Eka Laban nodonjo ei hemb Jakobo kendo ei hemb Lea kendo ei hemb jotichgi ariyo ma nyiri to ne ok oyudo gimoro. Bangʼ kane osea ei hemb Lea nodonjo ei hemb Rael.
34 And Rachel took the idols, and cast them among the camel's packs, and sat upon them.
Noyudo ka Rael osekawo nyisechego mopando e bwo kom ngamia mobetie. Laban nodwaro gik moko duto mane ni ei hema to ne ok oyudo gimoro.
35 And she said to her father, Be not indignant, Sir; I cannot rise up before thee, for it is with me according to the manner of women. Laban searched in all the house, and found not the images.
Rael nowacho ni wuon-gi niya, “Yaye ruodha, kik mirima maki koda ni atamora chungʼ e nyimi nikech an e kindena mag neno malo.” Kuom mano Laban nomanyo nyisechenego to ne ok oyudo.
36 And Jacob was angry, and strove with Laban; and Jacob answered and said to Laban, What is my injustice, and what my sin, that thou hast pursued after me,
Jakobo mirima nomako mi odhawo gi Laban. Nopenje niya, “En richo mane masetimo momiyo ilawa matek kama?
37 and that thou hast searched all the furniture of my house? what hast thou found of all the furniture of thine house? set it here between thy relations and my relations, and let them decide between us two.
Koro ero isemanyo giga duto, angʼo ma iyudo ma mari? Kete e lela e nyim oweteni kod owetena kendo we gingʼad bura e kindwa.
38 These twenty years have I been with thee; thy sheep, and thy she-goats have not failed in bearing; I devoured not the rams of thy cattle.
“Asebedo kodi koro higni piero ariyo, to rombi kata dieki pok obwogo bende achamo imi kata achiel.
39 That which was taken of beasts I brought not to thee; I made good of myself the thefts of the day, and the thefts of the night.
Ne ok akeloni chiayo ma ondiek ochamo; to ne achulo chiayo mangima an awuon. Bende ne iketo ni achuli kuom gimoro amora mane okwal gotieno kata godiechiengʼ.
40 I was parched with heat by day, and [chilled] with frost by night, and my sleep departed from my eyes.
Kamano e kaka ne abet; chiengʼ nochama godiechiengʼ kendo koyo nochama gotieno, kendo nindo noringo oa e wangʼa.
41 These twenty years have I been in thy house; I served thee fourteen years for thy two daughters, and six years among thy sheep, and thou didst falsely rate my wages for ten lambs.
Ne en kama kuom higni piero ariyo kane an e odi. Ne atiyoni kuom higni apar gangʼwen ne nyigi ariyo, kendo higni auchiel ne jambi, kendo ne imaya pokna nyadipar.
42 Unless I had the God of my father Abraam, and the fear of Isaac, now thou wouldest have sent me away empty; God saw my humiliation, and the labour of my hands, and rebuked thee yesterday.
Ka dine ni Nyasach wuora, Nyasach Ibrahim, kod luor mane Isaka nigo, ne ok ni koda, adier dine iriemba gi lweta nono. To Nyasaye oseneno chandruokna gi tich matek mar lweta, kendo nyo okweri otieno manyoro ni kik itimna gimoro marach.”
43 And Laban answered and said to Jacob, The daughters are my daughters, and the sons my sons, and the cattle are my cattle, and all things which thou seest are mine, and [the property] of my daughters; what shall I do to them to-day, or their children which they bore?
Laban nodwoko Jakobo niya, “Mon-go gin nyiga, nyithindogo gin nyithinda, kendo kwethgo gin kwethga. Gik moko duto minenogo gin maga. To koro en angʼo marach madatimne nyigagi, kata ne nyithindo ma ginywolo?
44 Now then come, let me make a covenant, both I and thou, and it shall be for a witness between me and thee; and he said to him, Behold, there is no one with us; behold, God is witness between me and thee.
Bi, mondo watim singruok, in kod an, kendo we obed kaka ranyisi e kindwa kodi.”
45 And Jacob having taken a stone, set it up for a pillar.
Omiyo Jakobo nokawo kidi mochunge ka siro.
46 And Jacob said to his brethren, Gather stones; and they gathered stones and made a heap, and ate there upon the heap; and Laban said to him, This heap witnesses between me and thee to-day.
Nowacho ne wedene niya, “Chokuru kite moko.” Kuom mano negikawo kite kendo negichokogi pith mine gichiemo but pidhno.
47 And Laban called it, the Heap of Testimony; and Jacob called it, the Witness Heap.
Laban nochako nying kanyo ni Jegar-Sahadutha; kendo Jakobo nochake ni Galeed.
48 And Laban said to Jacob, Behold this heap, and the pillar, which I have set between me and thee; this heap witnesses, and this pillar witnesses; therefore its name was called, the Heap witnesses.
Laban nowacho niya, “Pidhni en janeno e kinda kodi kawuono!” Mano emomiyo iluonge ni Galeed.
49 And the vision of which he said—Let God look to it between me and thee, because we are about to depart from each other, —
Bende kanyo nochak ni Mizpa (tiende ni kar ngʼicho), nikech Laban nowacho niya, “Mad Jehova Nyasaye bed jarit e kinda kodi ka wan mabor.
50 If thou shalt humble my daughters, if thou shouldest take wives in addition to my daughters, see, there is no one with us looking on. God [is] witness between me and thee.
Ka isando nyiga kata ikendo nyiri mamoko bangʼ nyigagi, kata obedoni onge janeno kae, to ngʼe malongʼo ni Nyasaye e janeno e kindwa.”
51 And Laban said to Jacob, Behold, this heap, and this pillar are a witness.
Laban nomedo wacho ne Jakobo niya, “Ne pidhni kendo ne sironi maseketo e kinda kodi.
52 For if I should not cross over unto thee, neither shouldest thou cross over to me, for mischief beyond this heap and this pillar.
Pidhni kata sironi gin joneno ni ok nakadh pidhni mondo amonji kendo in bende ok nikadh pidhni kata sironi mondo imonja.
53 The God of Abraam and the God of Nachor judge between us; and Jacob swore by the Fear of his father Isaac.
Mad Nyasach Ibrahim, kod Nahor, gi Nyasach kwereni obed jangʼad bura e kindwa.” Omiyo Jakobo notimo kwongʼruok e nying Nyasach Isaka wuon-gi.
54 And he offered a sacrifice in the mountain, and called his brethren, and they ate and drank, and slept in the mountain.
Notimo misango e godno kendo noluongo wedene e nyasino. Bangʼ kane gisechiemo, ne ginindo kanyo.
55 And Laban rose up in the morning, and kissed his sons and his daughters, and blessed them; and Laban having turned back, departed to his place.
Kiny ne gokinyi mangʼich, Laban nogone nyige gi nyikwaye oriti kendo nogwedhogi. Eka nowuok modok dala.
