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.
Jinanji’e ty enta’ o ana-dahi’ i Labaneo, nanao ty hoe, Finao’ Iakòbe ze fonga fanañan-drae’ay; le ty varan-drae’ay ty nampañefoefo aze.
2 And Jacob saw the countenance of Laban, and behold it was not towards him as before.
Ie niisa’ Iakòbe ty vinta’ i Labàne le naheo’e te tsy niatrefa’e manahake te taolo.
3 And the Lord said to Jacob, Return to the land of your father, and to your family, and I will be with you.
Aa le hoe t’Iehovà am’ Iakòbe, Mibaliha mb’an-tanen-droae’o mb’aman-drolongo’o mb’eo fa indrezako.
4 And Jacob sent and called Lea and Rachel to the plain where the flocks were.
Aa le nampihitrife’e an-koike t’i Rahkele naho i Leae t’ie homb’ am-piandrazañe mb’am-pirai-lia’e mb’eo.
5 And he said to them, I see the face of your father, that it is not towards me as before, but the God of my father was with me.
Le nanoa’e ty hoe, Treako ty vintan-drae’areo te tsy iatrefa’e manahake taolo, fe mañimb’ ahy t’i Andrianañaharen-draeko.
6 And you too know that with all my might I have served your father.
Fohi’areo t’ie nitoroñ’ an-drae’areo an-kaozarako iaby,
7 But your father deceived me, and changed my wages for the ten lambs, yet God gave him not [power] to hurt me.
fe nifañahian-drae’areo naho novae’e im-polo o tambekoo, f’ie tsy nimetean’ Añahare hijoy ahy.
8 If he should say thus, The speckled shall be your reward, then all the cattle would bear speckled; and if he should say, The white shall be your reward, then would all the cattle bear white.
Ie nanao ty hoe: O varevareo ro tambe’o, le songa niterake varevare o hare’eo, aa ie nanao ty hoe, O tanteharañeo ro tambe’o. Le hene nampipoke tanteharañe o hareo.
9 So God has taken away all the cattle of your father, and given them to me.
Aa le sininton’ Añahare aman-drae’areo o hare’eo vaho natolo’e ahy.
10 And it came to pass when the cattle conceived and were with young, that I saw 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.
Teo te indraik’ amy sam-pisaheañey le nañinofy Iraho naho niandra vaho nahatrea te hene tanteharañe ndra varevare ndra poake o oselahy nitongoa amo mpirai-liao.
11 And the angel of God said to me in a dream, Jacob; and I said, What is it?
Le hoe t’i anjelin’ Añahare amako ama’ nofy, O Iakòbe, vaho natoiko ty hoe, Intoy iraho.
12 And he said, Look up with your 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 you.
Le hoe re, Ampiandrao fihaino vaho mahaoniña te songa tanteharañe ndra varevare ndra poake ty oselahy misahe o hareo, amy te nitreako iaby ze nanoe’ i Labàne ama’o.
13 I am God that appeared to you in the place of God where you anointed a pillar to me, and vowed to me there a vow; now then arise and depart out of this land, depart into the land of your nativity, and I will be with you.
Izaho i Andrianañahare’ i Beteley, i nañoriza’o i vatolahiy naho nifanta’oy. Miongaha arè, engao ty toetse toy vaho mimpolia mb’an-tanen-dongo’o añe.
14 And Rachel and Lea answered and said to him, Have we yet a part or inheritance in the house of our father?
Aa le hoe ty natoi’ i Rahkele naho i Leae, Mbe aman’ anjara ndra lova añ’anjomban-drae’ay hao zahay?
15 Are we not considered strangers by him? for he has sold us, and quite devoured our money.
Tsy mone atao’e te ambahiny kanao naleta’e? mbore nabotse’e iaby o lafitihi’aio.
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 whatever God has said to you.
Toe anay naho a o keleia’aio ze fonga hanaña’e nasintan’ Añahare aman-drae’ay; aa le ano ze tsinaran’ Añahare ama’o.
17 And Jacob arose and took his wives and his children up on the camels;
Niongak’ amy zao t’Iakòbe naho nampiningire’e an-drameva o vali’eo naho o ana’eo,
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.
vaho niroahe’e mb’eo ze hene hare’e naho o vara fa natonto’eo, o hanaña’e naho hare niazo’e e Padan’ arameo, vaho nitehafe’e mb’aman-drae’e Ietsake an-tane Kanàne añe.
19 And Laban went to shear his sheep; and Rachel stole her father's images.
Aa ie fa nimb’am-pañitsifan’ añondri’e mb’eo t’i Labàne, le kinizo’ i Rahkele o ndraharen’ anjomba an-drae’eo.
20 And Jacob hid [the matter from] Laban the Syrian, so as not to tell him that he ran away.
Toe nifañahie’ Iakòbe t’i Labàne t’ie tsy nitalily ama’e te nienga,
21 And he departed himself and all that belonged to him, and passed over the river, and went into the mountain Galaad.
ie nimotiotse mb’eo naho ze ama’e iaby. Niongake re nitsake i sakay, le nitandrifie’e mb’am-bohibohi’ i Gilade mb’eo ty lahara’e.
22 But it was told Laban the Syrian on the third day, that Jacob was fled.
Natalily amy Labàne amy andro fahateloy te nibioñe t’Iakòbe.
23 And having taken his brethren with him, he pursued after him seven days' journey, and overtook him on Mount Galaad.
Aa le nendese’e o longo’eo naho nihoridañe’e fito andro vaho nahatratse aze am-bohibohi’ i Gilade eo.
24 And God came to Laban the Syrian in sleep by night, and said to him, Take heed to yourself that you speak not at any time to Jacob evil things.
Le niheo amy Labàne nte-Arame ami’ty nofy t’i Andrianañahare nanao ama’e ty hoe, Mitomira, tsy hisaontsy am’ Iakòbe ndra ty soa ndra ty raty.
25 And Laban overtook Jacob; and Jacob pitched his tent in the mountain; and Laban stationed his brothers in the mount Galaad.
Aa le nitra’ i Labàne t’Iakòbe. Fa nañoren-kibohotse am-bohitse ey t’Iakòbe, le nitobe am-bohibohi’ i Gilade ao t’i Labàne mirolongo.
26 And Laban said to Jacob, What have you done? therefore did you run away secretly, and pillage me, and lead away my daughters as captives taken with the sword?
Hoe t’i Labàne am’ Iakòbe, Ino o nanoe’oo? Ie niponiora’o am-pamañahiañe vaho namaoke o anak’ ampelakoo hoe mpirohy nitsepahem-pibara.
27 Whereas if you had told me, I would have sent you away with mirth, and with songs, and timbrels, and harp.
Ino ty nibioña’o am-pañahy naho nivokake amako tsy nitalily, ie ho nampionjoneko an-drebeke naho sabo vaho kantsàñe miharo kararàke.
28 And I was not counted worthy to embrace my children and my daughters; now then you have wrought foolishly.
Tsy nimea’o ty hañondrohako o ana-dahiko naho anak’ ampelakoo? Toe nanao hagegean-drehe te nanoa’o.
29 And now my hand has power to hurt you; but the God of your father spoke to me yesterday, saying, Take heed to yourself that you speak not evil words to Jacob.
An-tañako ty haozarañe hañoho-doza ama’ areo fe nitsara amako ami’ty nofy aniankale t’i Andrianañaharen-drae’o, ty hoe, Mitomira tsy hivolañe ndra soa ndra raty am’ Iakòbe.
30 Now then go on your way, for you have earnestly desired to depart to the house of your father; therefore have you stolen my gods?
Ie amy zao, ndra te tsy nete tsy nionjom-b’eo irehe ami’ty hamaniña’o ty anjomban-drae’o, manao akore te nikamere’o o ndraharekoo?
31 And Jacob answered and said to Laban, Because I was afraid; for I said, Lest at any time you should take away your daughters from me, and all my possessions.
Le hoe ty natoi’ Iakobe amy Labane, Toe nihemban-draho, nataoko ho nitavane’o amako o anak’ ampela’oo.
32 And Jacob said, With whoever you shall find your gods, he shall not live in the presence of our brethren; take notice of what I have of your property, and take it; and he observed nothing with him, but Jacob knew not that his wife Rachel had stolen them.
Fe tsy ho veloñe ze isa’o mitañe o ndrahare’oo. Itsikaraho añatrefa’ o longon-tikañeo le endeso ze fanaña’o amako. Toe tsy nifohi’ Iakòbe t’ie kinizo’ i Rahkele.
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 maidservants, and found them not; and he went also into the house of Rachel.
Aa le nimoake an-kiboho’ Iakòbe ao t’i Labàne, naho an-kiboho’ i Leae, vaho an-kiboho’ i mpitoro-ampela roe rey fe tsy nahaisake. Niakatse an-kiboho’ i Leae naho nizilik’ an-kiboho’ i Rahkele.
34 And Rachel took the idols, and cast them amongst the camel's packs, and sat upon them.
Ie amy zao fa rinambe’ i Rahkele o ndrahareo naho napo’e ambanen-pitobohañe an-drameva ao vaho nitoboha’e. Nitsitsife’ i Labàne kodaba i kibohotsey fe tsy nahaoniñe.
35 And she said to her father, Be not indignant, Sir; I can’t rise up before you, for it is with me according to the manner of women. Laban searched in all the house, and found not the images.
Le hoe re aman-drae’e, Ehe tsy ho viñera’ ty talèko te tsy imeteako ongake añatrefa’o, fa miampela. Aa le nikodebe re fe tsy nitendreke o samposampon-drahao.
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 you have pursued after me,
Niviñetse amy zao t’Iakòbe le nendaha’e t’i Labàne; hoe t’Iakòbe amy Labàne. Ino o fiolàko? Ino o hakeoko nañoridaña’o ahy an-kelokeo?
37 and that you have searched all the furniture of my house? what have you found of all the furniture of your house? set it here between your relations and my relations, and let them decide between us two.
Aa ndra te nitsitsife’o tsoeke o haraokoo, ino amo haraon’ anjomba’oo ty niisa’o? Apoho añatrefa’ o longokoo naho o longo’oo etoañe, hizaka’ iareo añivon-tika roe.
38 These twenty years have I been with you; your sheep, and your she-goats have not failed in bearing; I devoured not the rams of your cattle.
Fa roapolo taoñe henanekeo ty nitraofako ama’o, le lia’e tsy nañary anake o añondri-vave’o naho o ose-vave’oo vaho tsy nihinanako o añondri-lahin-dia-rai’oo.
39 That which was taken of beasts I brought not to you; I made good of myself the thefts of the day, and the thefts of the night.
Tsy nendeseko ama’o ze nirimitem-biby fa nivavèko i hamotsoañey; pinai’o an-tañako ndra ty kinametse antoandro ndra ty kinizo haleñe.
40 I was parched with heat by day, and [chilled] with frost by night, and my sleep departed from my eyes.
Ie nabotse’ ty fipisañañe te handro, nangoratsake te haleñe vaho nibiòña’ ty roro o masokoo.
41 These twenty years have I been in your house; I served you fourteen years for your two daughters, and six years amongst your sheep, and you did falsely rate my wages for ten lambs.
Inay i roapolo taoñe naha-mpiàmañ’ anjomba’o ahy rezay; nitoroñe azo folo-tao-efats’ amby hahazoako i anak’ ampela’o roe rey, vaho enen-taoñe o hare’oo, mbore novae’o im-polo i tambekoy.
42 Unless I had the God of my father Abraam, and the fear of Isaac, now you would have sent me away empty; God saw my humiliation, and the labour of my hands, and rebuked you yesterday.
Aa naho tsy nimpiamako t’i Andrianañaharen-draeko, t’i Andrianañahare’ i Avrahame, naho i nampañeveñe Ietsàkey le toe ho nampolie’o mañomaño. Nahavazoho o hasotriakoo naho o fitoloñan-tañakoo t’i Andrianañahare vaho nañendak’ azo aniankale.
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 you see are mine, and [the property] of my daughters; what shall I do to them today, or their children which they bore?
Aa le hoe ty natoi’ i Labàne am’ Iakòbe: Anak’ ampelako o anak’ ampelao, anadahiko o anadahio, hàreko o hareo vaho hene ahiko naho a i anakampelako rey ze isa’o. Fe ino ty hanoeko anito amo anak’ampelakoo, naho amo ana-dahy nisamahe’eo?
44 Now then come, let me make a covenant, both I and you, and it shall be for a witness between me and you; and he said to him, Behold, there is no one with us; behold, God is witness between me and you.
Mbetoa arè hifañina, izaho naho ihe; le ie ty ho valolombeloñe añivon-tikañe.
45 And Jacob having taken a stone, set it up for a pillar.
Aa le nandrambe vato t’Iakòbe vaho natroa’e ho ajiba.
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 you today.
Le hoe t’Iakòbe aman-drolongo’e, Amorio vato, le nandrambe vato iereo naho navotre, vaho nikama amy votrem-batoy.
47 And Laban called it, the Heap of Testimony; and Jacob called it, the Witness Heap.
Nanoe’ i Labàne ty hoe Iegare-Sahadotà, f’ie natao Iakòbe Galede.
48 And Laban said to Jacob, Behold this heap, and the pillar, which I have set between me and you; this heap witnesses, and this pillar witnesses; therefore its name was called, the Heap witnesses.
Hoe t’i Labàne, Valolombeloñe añivoko naho ihe androany ty votre toy. Aa le natao Galede ty añara’e,
49 And the vision of which he said—Let God look to it between me and you, because we are about to depart from each other, —
naho Mizpa, fa hoe re, Hivazoho añivo’o naho izaho t’Iehovà naho tsy amy ila’ey ty raike.
50 If you shall humble my daughters, if you should take wives in addition to my daughters, see, there is no one with us looking on. God [is] witness between me and you.
Naho sarerahe’o o anak’ ampelakoo, ndra mañenga valy mandikoatse o anakoo, itika tsy amam-pañalañalañe, tiahio te valolombeloñe añivon-tika t’i Andrianañahare.
51 And Laban said to Jacob, Behold, this heap, and this pillar are a witness.
Le hoe t’i Labàne am’Iakòbe, Hehe ty votre tia naho ty ajiba najadoko añivo’o naho izaho.
52 For if I should not cross over to you, neither should you cross over to me, for mischief beyond this heap and this pillar.
Valolombeloñe ty votre tia, naho valolombeloñe ty ajiba toy te tsy handilarako mb’ ama’o mb’eo, vaho tsy ho lika’o ty votre toy ndra ty ajiba toy homb’amako, hañeloke.
53 The God of Abraam and the God of Nachor judge between us; and Jacob swore by the Fear of his father Isaac.
T’i Andrianañahare’ i Avrahame, naho t’i Andrianañahare’ i Nakore, t’i Andrianañaharen-droae’ iareo ty hizaka añivon-tika. Aa le nifanta amy Fañeveñan-drae’e Ietsàke t’Iakòbe,
54 And he offered a sacrifice in the mountain, and called his brethren, and they ate and drank, and slept in the mountain.
le nañenga soroñe ambohitse eo t’Iakòbe naho kinoi’e o longo’eo hikama, le nikama vaho nialeñe amy vohitsey.
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.
Nañaleñaleñe t’i Labàne t’ie nitroatse naho norofa’e o ana’eo naho o anak’ampela’eo vaho nitata’e. Niavotse amy zao t’i Labane nimpoly mb’ama’e añe.
