Genesis 31
1 And he heard the words of Laban's sons, saying, Jacob has taken away all that was our father's; and of that which was our father's has he got all this glory.
Jakòb vin konnen jan pitit gason Laban yo t'ap di: -Jakòb fin pran tou sa ki te pou papa nou. Se byen papa nou li fin ranmase kifè li rich konsa.
2 And Jacob beheld the countenance of Laban, and, behold, it was not toward him as before.
Jakòb vin wè tout Laban pa t' ba li menm karaktè li te konn ba li anvan an.
3 And the LORD said unto Jacob, Return unto the land of your fathers, and to your kindred; and I will be with you.
Lè sa a, Seyè a di l': -Tounen nan peyi kote ou te fèt la, al jwenn fanmi ou. M'ap toujou la avè ou.
4 And Jacob sent and called Rachel and Leah to the field unto his flock,
Se konsa Jakòb fè chache Rachèl ak Leya. Li voye di yo rive kote l' nan savann kote bèt li yo ye a.
5 And said unto them, I see your father's countenance, that it is not toward me as before; but the God of my father has been with me.
Li di yo: -Mwen wè karaktè papa nou pa menm jan avè m' ankò. Li chanje anpil, men Bondye papa m' lan toujou avè m'.
6 And all of you know that with all my power I have served your father.
Nou tout de nou konnen jan mwen te sèvi ak papa nou ak tout kouraj mwen.
7 And your father has deceived me, and changed my wages ten times; but God suffered him not to hurt me.
Men li menm, li toujou ap twonpe mwen. Li chanje lide dis fwa lè lè a rive pou li peye m'. Men, Bondye pa janm kite l' fè m' anyen.
8 If he said thus, The speckled shall be your wages; then all the cattle bare speckled: and if he said thus, The striped with bands shall be your hire; then bare all the cattle striped with bands.
Lè Laban di: ou mèt pran tout kabrit takte yo pou ou, tout bann bèt yo tonbe fè pitit takte. Lè li di: m'ap ba ou tout kabrit ki gen re sou tout kò yo, tout bann bèt yo tonbe fè pitit ak re sou tout kò yo.
9 Thus God has taken away the cattle of your father, and given them to me.
Se Bondye menm ki pran bann bèt papa nou yo, li ban mwen yo.
10 And it came to pass at the time that the cattle conceived, that I lifted up mine eyes, and saw in a dream, and, behold, the rams which leaped upon the cattle were striped with bands, speckled, and greyed.
Lè bèt yo mande kwaze, mwen fè yon rèv, mwen wè tout bouk ki t'ap kwaze yo se bouk ki takte, ki pentle ak sa ki gen re sou tout kò yo.
11 And the angel of God spoke unto me in a dream, saying, Jacob: And I said, Here am I.
Zanj Bondye a pale avè m' nan rèv la, li di m': Jakòb. Mwen reponn li: Men mwen wi.
12 And he said, Lift up now your eyes, and see, all the rams which leap upon the cattle are striped with bands, speckled, and greyed: for I have seen all that Laban does unto you.
Li di m' ankò: Leve je ou gade: tout bouk k'ap vole fenmèl yo se bouk ki takte ak sa ki gen re sou tout kò yo. Se mwen menm k'ap fè sa konsa, paske mwen wè tout sa Laban ap fè ou.
13 I am the God of Bethel, where you anointed the pillar, and where you vowed a vow unto me: now arise, get you out from this land, and return unto the land of your kindred.
Mwen se Bondye ki te parèt devan ou lè ou te Betèl, kote ou te mete gwo wòch la apa pou mwen an. Ou chonje, lè sa a, ou te fè yon pwomès ban mwen. Koulye a, leve, kite peyi sa a. Tounen nan peyi kote ou te fèt la.
14 And Rachel and Leah answered and said unto him, Is there yet any portion or inheritance for us in our father's house?
Rachèl ak Leya reponn Jakòb: -Nou pa gen anyen ankò pou n' eritye nan men papa nou.
15 Are we not counted of him strangers? for he has sold us, and has quite devoured also our money.
Eske li pa konsidere nou tankou etranje? Li vann nou. Koulye a, li fin manje tout lajan yo te ba li pou nou an.
16 For all the riches which God has taken from our father, that is ours, and our children's: now then, whatsoever God has said unto you, do.
Tout richès Bondye wete nan men papa nou an, se pou nou ansanm ak pitit nou yo. Koulye a, se pou ou fè tout sa Bondye di ou fè.
17 Then Jacob rose up, and set his sons and his wives upon camels;
Lè sa a, Jakòb leve, li mete pitit li yo ansanm ak madanm li yo sou chamo.
18 And he carried away all his cattle, and all his goods which he had got, the cattle of his getting, which he had got in Padanaram, in order to go to Isaac his father in the land of Canaan.
Li pran tout bèt li yo ansanm ak tout sa li te rive genyen pandan li te Mezopotami an, li mennen yo ale. Li pati, li al jwenn papa l', Izarak, nan peyi Kanaran.
19 And Laban went to shear his sheep: and Rachel had stolen the images that were her father's.
Lè sa a, Laban t al taye lenn mouton l' yo. Pandan li pa t' la, Rachèl vòlè ti zidòl kay papa l' yo.
20 And Jacob stole away unexpectedly to Laban the Syrian, in that he told him not that he fled.
Se konsa Jakòb twonpe Laban, moun lavil Aram lan, li pati san l' pa di l' sa.
21 So he fled with all that he had; and he rose up, and passed over the river, and set his face toward the mount Gilead.
Li pran tout sa li te genyen, li mete deyò, li ale, li travèse larivyè Lefrat, li pran chemen pou li al sou mòn Galarad.
22 And it was told Laban on the third day that Jacob was fled.
Twa jou apre, Laban pran nouvèl Jakòb te pati.
23 And he took his brethren with him, and pursued after him seven days' journey; and they overtook him in the mount Gilead.
Msye pran moun pa li yo avè l', li pati dèyè Jakòb. Apre sèt jou, li jwenn li sou mòn Galarad.
24 And God came to Laban the Syrian in a dream by night, and said unto him, Take heed that you speak not to Jacob either good or bad.
Men, pandan lannwit, Bondye parèt devan Laban, moun lavil Aram lan, nan yon rèv, li di l': -Piga ou di Jakòb anyen ni an byen, ni an mal.
25 Then Laban overtook Jacob. Now Jacob had pitched his tent in the mount: and Laban with his brethren pitched in the mount of Gilead.
Se konsa, Laban jwenn Jakòb ki te moute tant li sou mòn lan. Laban te moute tant li tout sou mòn Galarad pou li menm ansanm ak moun pa l' yo.
26 And Laban said to Jacob, What have you done, that you have stolen away unexpectedly to me, and carried away my daughters, as captives taken with the sword?
Laban di Jakòb: -Kisa ou fè konsa? Ou twonpe m', ou pran pitit fi mwen yo, ou mennen yo ale tankou prizonye ou fè nan lagè.
27 Wherefore did you flee away secretly, and steal away from me; and did not tell me, that I might have sent you away with delight, and with songs, with timbrel, and with harp?
Poukisa ou twonpe m', ou leve ou pati an kachèt san ou pa avèti m'? Si ou te di m' sa, nou ta fè fèt, nou ta chante, nou ta bat tanbou, nou ta jwe gita anvan nou voye ou ale.
28 And have not suffered me to kiss my sons and my daughters? you have now done foolishly in so doing.
Ou pa menm kite m' bo pitit pitit mwen yo ak pitit fi m' yo. Ou aji tankou moun fou, monchè!
29 It is in the power of my hand to do you hurt: but the God of your father spoke unto me last night, saying, Take you heed that you speak not to Jacob either good or bad.
Mwen gen kont pouvwa anba men m' pou m' ta regle ou. Men yè swa, pandan lannwit lan Bondye papa ou la di m': Piga ou di Jakòb anyen ni an byen, ni an mal.
30 And now, though you would essentially be gone, because you sore longed after your father's house, yet wherefore have you stolen my gods?
Mwen konnen ou pati paske se pa ti anvi ou pa te anvi tounen lakay papa ou. Men, sa ou te bezwen vòlè ti zidòl kay mwen yo fè?
31 And Jacob answered and said to Laban, Because I was afraid: for I said, Possibly you would take by force your daughters from me.
Jakòb reponn Laban, li di l': -Mwen te pè, paske mwen te kwè ou ta ka reprann pitit fi ou yo nan menm.
32 With whomsoever you find your gods, let him not live: before our brethren discern you what is your with me, and take it to you. For Jacob knew not that Rachel had stolen them.
Men, kanta pou ti zidòl kay ou yo, si ou jwenn yo nan men yon moun isit la, se pou moun sa a mouri. Men, mwen pran tout moun sa yo pou temwen, si ou jwenn yon bagay lakay mwen ki pou ou, pran l' pote l' ale. Jakòb pa t' konnen Rachèl te vòlè ti zidòl kay yo.
33 And Laban went into Jacob's tent, and into Leah's tent, and into the two maidservants' tents; but he found them not. Then went he out of Leah's tent, and entered into Rachel's tent.
Laban antre anba tant Jakòb la, li chache, li ale anba tant Leya a, apre sa anba tant de sèvant yo, li pa jwenn anyen. Li soti anba tant Leya a, li antre anba tant Rachèl. la.
34 Now Rachel had taken the images, and put them in the camel's furniture, and sat upon them. And Laban searched all the tent, but found them not.
Rachèl menm te pran ti zidòl kay yo, li te mete yo anba aparèy chamo a, epi li chita sou yo. Laban menm chache tout anba tant lan, li pa jwenn anyen.
35 And she said to her father, Let it not displease my lord that I cannot rise up before you; for the custom of women is upon me. And he searched but found not the images.
Rachèl di papa l' konsa: -Si ou wè mwen pa ka leve kanpe devan ou, ou pa bezwen fache non. Se lalen mwen mwen genyen. Se konsa Laban fouye toupatou, li pa jwenn ti zidòl kay li yo.
36 And Jacob was angry, and find fault with Laban: and Jacob answered and said to Laban, What is my trespass? what is my sin, that you have so hotly pursued after me?
Lè sa a, Jakòb move sou Laban. Li pete yon kabouyay ak li, li di l': -Ki krim mwen fè? Kisa m' fè ki mal pou w'ap pousib mwen konsa?
37 Whereas you have searched all my stuff, what have you found of all your household stuff? set it here before my brethren and your brethren, that they may judge between us both.
Ou fin fouye tout zafè m' yo. Kisa ou jwenn ki pou ou? Mete l' la devan moun pa ou yo ak moun pa m' yo, pou yo ka di ki moun ki gen rezon!
38 This twenty years have I been with you; your ewes and your she goats have not cast their young, and the rams of your flock have I not eaten.
Sa fè ventan depi m avè ou. Mouton ou yo ak kabrit ou yo pa janm manke fè pitit. Mwen pa janm manje yon ti bouk nan bèt ou yo.
39 That which was torn of beasts I brought not unto you; I bare the loss of it; of my hand did you require it, whether stolen by day, or stolen by night.
Lè bèt nan bwa touye yon mouton, mwen pa janm pote l' ba ou. Mwen te pran pèt la sou kont mwen. Ou te rann mwen reskonsab tout bèt yo vòlè, kit se lannwit, kit se lajounen.
40 Thus I was; in the day the drought consumed me, and the frost by night; and my sleep departed from mine eyes.
Lajounen, chalè te fini avè m'. Lannwit, se te fredi, mwen pa t' kapab dòmi.
41 Thus have I been twenty years in your house; I served you fourteen years for your two daughters, and six years for your cattle: and you have changed my wages ten times.
Se konsa sa te ye pandan tout ventan mwen pase lakay ou yo. Mwen travay pandan katòzan pou de pitit fi ou yo. Apre sa, mwen fè sizan ankò ap travay pou bann bèt ou yo. Atousa, ou jwenn mwayen chanje pawòl dis fwa lè lè a rive pou ou peye m'.
42 Except the God of my father, the God of Abraham, and the fear of Isaac, had been with me, surely you had sent me away now empty. God has seen mine affliction and the labour of my hands, and rebuked you last night.
Si Bondye papa m' lan, Bondye Abraram lan, Bondye Izarak respekte a, pa t' la avèk mwen, koulye a ou ta voye m' ale yon men devan yon men dèyè. Men Bondye wè tout traka mwen bay tèt mwen, li wè travay mwen fè, se konsa yè swa li rann jijman li.
43 And Laban answered and said unto Jacob, These daughters are my daughters, and these children are my children, and these cattle are my cattle, and all that you see is mine: and what can I do this day unto these my daughters, or unto their children which they have born?
Laban reponn Jakòb: -Fi sa yo se pitit mwen yo ye. Timoun sa yo, se pa m' yo ye. Bann bèt sa yo se pou mwen yo ye. tout sa ou wè la a, se pou mwen yo ye. Bon, kisa m' ka fè koulye a pou pitit fi mwen yo ak pou pitit pitit mwen yo?
44 Now therefore come you, let us make a covenant, I and you; and let it be for a witness between me and you.
Vini non. Annou pase yon kontra, mwen menm avè ou. Ann kite yon mak ki va sèvi pou fè nou toujou chonje kontra a.
45 And Jacob took a stone, and set it up for a pillar.
Jakòb pran yon gwo wòch, li plante l' nan tè a, li fè l' rete kanpe tankou yon bòn.
46 And Jacob said unto his brethren, Gather stones; and they took stones, and made an heap: and they did eat there upon the heap.
Epi, li di moun li yo: -Ranmase wòch. Mesye yo ranmase wòch, yo anpile yo fè yon gwo pil. Apre sa, yo chita bò pil wòch la, yo manje.
47 And Laban called it Jegarsahadutha: but Jacob called it Galeed.
Laban rele pil wòch la Jega Saadouta nan lang pa l', men Jakòb te rele l' nan lang pa l' Galèd.
48 And Laban said, This heap is a witness between me and you this day. Therefore was the name of it called Galeed;
Laban di: -Pil wòch sa a va sèvi pou fè nou tout de toujou chonje kontra a. Se poutèt sa yo rele kote sa a Galèd.
49 And Mizpah; for he said, The LORD watch between me and you, when we are absent one from another.
Laban di ankò: -Se pou Bondye voye je sou nou tout de lè nou fin separe. Se konsa yo rele kote sa a Mispa.
50 If you shall afflict my daughters, or if you shall take other wives beside my daughters, no man is with us; see, God is witness between me and you.
Laban pale ankò, li di: -Si ou maltrete pitit fi mwen yo, si ou pran lòt fanm ankò sou yo, konnen ou p'ap annafè ak yon moun tankou nou tande. Atansyon, men se ak Bondye menm, ki temwen sa nou sot fè a, w'ap annafè.
51 And Laban said to Jacob, Behold this heap, and behold this pillar, which I have cast between me and you:
Laban di Jakòb ankò: -Men pil wòch mwen mete pou separe nou an. Men bòn ou plante a la.
52 This heap be witness, and this pillar be witness, that I will not pass over this heap to you, and that you shall not pass over this heap and this pillar unto me, for harm.
Ni pil wòch yo ni bòn lan ap sèvi yon mak. Mwen pa gen dwa depase l' pou m' vin atake ou, ni ou pa gen dwa depase l' pou ou vin atake m'.
53 The God of Abraham, and the God of Nahor, the God of their father, judge between us. And Jacob swore by the fear of his father Isaac.
Se pou Bondye Abraram lan, Bondye Nakò a, Bondye papa yo a, mete rezon nan mitan nou. Lè sa a, Jakòb sèmante nan non Bondye Izarak, papa l' respekte a.
54 Then Jacob offered sacrifice upon the mount, and called his brethren to eat bread: and they did eat bread, and tarried all night in the mount.
Apre sa, li touye yon bèt, li ofri l' bay Bondye sou mòn lan, epi li envite moun pa l' yo vin manje. Lè yo fin manje, yo pase nwit la sou mòn lan.
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.
Nan denmen maten byen bonè, Laban leve, li bo pitit pitit li yo ak pitit fi li yo. Li beni yo. Apre sa, li pati, li tounen lakay li.
