Genesis 31

1 And he heard the words of Laban's sons, saying: 'Jacob hath taken away all that was our father's; and of that which was our father's hath he gotten all this wealth.'

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 beheld the countenance of Laban, and, behold, it was not toward him as beforetime.

Jakob je gledal Labánovo obličje in glej, ni bilo proti njemu kakor poprej.

3 And the LORD said unto Jacob: 'Return unto the land of thy fathers, and to thy kindred; and I will be with thee.'

Gospod je Jakobu rekel: »Vrni se v deželo svojih očetov in k svojemu sorodstvu in jaz bom s teboj.«

4 And Jacob sent and called Rachel and Leah to the field unto his flock,

Jakob je poslal in poklical Rahelo in Leo na polje k svojemu tropu

5 and said unto them: 'I see your father's countenance, that it is not toward me as beforetime; but the God of my father hath 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 And ye know that with all my power I have served your father.

Vedve vesta, da sem z vso svojo močjo služil vajinemu očetu.

7 And your father hath mocked me, and changed my wages ten times; but God suffered him not to hurt 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 thus: The speckled shall be thy wages; then all the flock bore speckled; and if he said thus: The streaked shall be thy wages; then bore all the flock streaked.

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 hath taken away the cattle of your father, and given them to me.

Tako je Bog odvzel živino od vajinega očeta in jo dal meni.

10 And it came to pass at the time that the flock conceived, that I lifted up mine eyes, and saw in a dream, and, behold, the he-goats which leaped upon the flock were streaked, speckled, and grizzled.

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 And the angel of God said unto me in the dream: Jacob; and I said: Here am I.

In Božji angel mi je v sanjah spregovoril, rekoč: ›Jakob.‹ Rekel sem: ›Tukaj sem.‹

12 And he said: Lift up now thine eyes, and see, all the he-goats which leap upon the flock are streaked, speckled, and grizzled; for I have seen all that Laban doeth unto thee.

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 Beth-el, where thou didst anoint a pillar, where thou didst vow a vow unto Me. Now arise, get thee out from this land, and return unto the land of thy nativity.'

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 answered and said unto him: 'Is there yet any portion or inheritance for us 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 accounted by him strangers? for he hath sold us, and hath also quite devoured our price.

Ali nisva pri njem šteti [kakor] tujki? Kajti prodal naju je in popolnoma požrl tudi najin denar.

16 For all the riches which God hath taken away from our father, that is ours and our children's. Now then, whatsoever God hath said unto thee, do.'

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 rose up, and set his sons and his wives upon the camels;

Potem je Jakob vstal in svoje sinove in svoji ženi posadil na kamele

18 and he carried away all his cattle, and all his substance which he had gathered, the cattle of his getting, which he had gathered in Paddan-aram, to go to Isaac his father unto the land of 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 Laban was gone to shear his sheep. And Rachel stole the teraphim that were her father's.

Labán je odšel, da ostriže svoje ovce. Rahela pa je ukradla malike, ki so bili [od] njenega očeta.

20 And Jacob outwitted Laban the Aramean, in that he told him not that he fled.

Jakob se je nenadoma odtihotapil od Sirca Labána, v tem, da mu ni povedal, da je pobegnil.

21 So he fled with all that he had; and he rose up, and passed over the River, and set his face toward the mountain of Gilead.

Tako je pobegnil z vsem, kar je imel in vstal ter prečkal reko in svoje obličje nameril proti gori Gileád.

22 And it was told Laban on the third day that Jacob was fled.

Labánu je bilo tretji dan povedano, da je Jakob pobegnil.

23 And he took his brethren with him, and pursued after him seven days' journey; and he overtook him in the mountain of Gilead.

S seboj je vzel svoje brate in ga zasledoval sedem dni potovanja in dohiteli so ga na gori Gileád.

24 And God came to Laban the Aramean in a dream of the night, and said unto him: 'Take heed to thyself that thou speak not 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 And Laban came up with Jacob. Now Jacob had pitched his tent in the mountain; and Laban with his brethren pitched in the mountain of Gilead.

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 And Laban said to Jacob: 'What hast thou done, that thou hast outwitted me, and carried away my daughters as though captives of the sword?

Labán je rekel Jakobu: »Kaj si storil, da si se nenadoma odtihotapil od mene in odvedel moji hčeri kakor ujetnici vzeti z mečem?

27 Wherefore didst thou flee secretly, and outwit me; and didst not tell me, that I might have sent thee away with mirth and with songs, with tabret and with harp;

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 and didst not suffer me to kiss my sons and my daughters? now hast thou done foolishly.

Nisi mi dovolil, da poljubim svoje sinove in svoje hčere? To si torej s takšnim početjem storil nespametno.

29 It is in the power of my hand to do you hurt; but the God of your father spoke unto me yesternight, saying: Take heed to thyself that thou speak not 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 And now that thou art surely gone, because thou sore longest after thy father's house, wherefore hast thou 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 And Jacob answered and said to Laban: 'Because I was afraid; for I said: Lest thou shouldest take thy 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 With whomsoever thou findest thy gods, he shall not live; before our brethren discern thou what is thine with me, and take it to thee.' — For Jacob knew not that Rachel had stolen them. —

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 And Laban went into Jacob's tent, and into Leah's tent, and into the tent of the two maid-servants; but he found them not. And he went out of Leah's tent, and entered into 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 the teraphim, and put them in the saddle of the camel, and sat upon them. And Laban felt about all the tent, but found them not.

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 And she said to her father: 'Let not my lord be angry that I cannot rise up before thee; for the manner of women is upon me.' And he searched, but found not the teraphim.

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 And Jacob was wroth, and strove with Laban. And Jacob answered and said to Laban: 'What is my trespass? what is my sin, that thou hast hotly pursued after 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 Whereas thou hast felt about all my stuff, what hast thou found of all thy household stuff? Set it here before my brethren and thy brethren, that they may judge betwixt us two.

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 These twenty years have I been with thee; thy ewes and thy she-goats have not cast their young, and the rams of thy flocks have I not eaten.

Teh dvajset let sem bil s teboj. Tvoje ovce in tvoje koze niso zavrgle svojih mladičev in ovnov tvojega tropa nisem jedel.

39 That which was torn of beasts I brought not unto thee; I bore the loss of it; of my hand didst thou require it, whether stolen by day or stolen by 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 Thus I was: in the day the drought consumed me, and the frost by night; and my sleep fled from mine eyes.

Tak sem bil. Podnevi me je požirala suša in zmrzal ponoči in moje spanje je odšlo izpred mojih oči.

41 These twenty years have I been in thy house: I served thee fourteen years for thy two daughters, and six years for thy flock; and thou hast 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 Except the God of my father, the God of Abraham, and the Fear of Isaac, had been on my side, surely now hadst thou sent me away empty. God hath seen mine affliction and the labour of my hands, and gave judgment yesternight.'

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 And Laban answered and said unto Jacob: 'The daughters are my daughters, and the children are my children, and the flocks are my flocks, and all that thou seest is mine; and what can I do this day for these my daughters, or for their children whom 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 And now come, let us make a covenant, I and thou; and let it be for a witness between me and thee.'

Zdaj torej pridi, skleniva zavezo, ti in jaz; in naj bo to za pričo med menoj in teboj.«

45 And Jacob took a stone, and set it up for a pillar.

Jakob je vzel kamen in ga postavil za steber.

46 And Jacob said unto his brethren: 'Gather stones'; and they took stones, and made a heap. And they did eat there by the heap.

Jakob je rekel svojim bratom: »Zberite kamne; « in vzeli so kamne ter naredili kup in jedli tam na kupu.

47 And Laban called it Jegar-sahadutha; but Jacob called it Galeed.

Labán ga je imenoval Jegár Sahadutá, toda Jakob ga je imenoval Galéd.

48 And Laban said: 'This heap is witness between me and thee this day.' Therefore was the name of it called Galeed;

Labán je rekel: »Ta kup je danes priča med menoj in teboj.« Zato je bilo ime le-tega imenovano Galéd

49 and Mizpah, for he said: 'The LORD watch between me and thee, when we are absent one from another.

in Micpa, kajti rekel je: » Gospod gleda med menoj in teboj, ko smo odsotni eden od drugega.

50 If thou shalt afflict my daughters, and if thou shalt take wives beside my daughters, no man being with us; see, God is witness betwixt me and thee.'

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 And Laban said to Jacob: 'Behold this heap, and behold the pillar, which I have set up betwixt me and thee.

Labán je rekel Jakobu: »Glej ta kup in glej ta steber, ki sem ga postavil med menoj in teboj.

52 This heap be witness, and the pillar be witness, that I will not pass over this heap to thee, and that thou shalt not pass over this heap and this pillar unto me, for harm.

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 The God of Abraham, and the God of Nahor, the God of their father, judge betwixt us.' And 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 And Jacob offered a sacrifice in the mountain, and called his brethren to eat bread; and they did eat bread, and tarried all night in 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 And early in the morning Laban rose up, and kissed his sons and his daughters, and blessed them. And Laban departed, and returned unto his place.

Zgodaj zjutraj je Labán vstal, poljubil svoje sinove in svoje hčere ter jih blagoslovil in Labán je odpotoval ter se vrnil na svoj kraj.
