< Genesis 31 >
1 And he hears the words of Laban’s sons, saying, “Jacob has taken all that our father has; indeed, from that which our father has, he has made all this glory”;
Lao esa, Yakob rena Labꞌan ana nara ola-olaꞌ rae, “Yakob namasuꞌi seli, huu ana ao nabasaꞌ hita ama na hata-heto nara.”
2 and Jacob sees the face of Laban, and behold, it is not with him as before.
Yakob o mete ama ari na matan nda matetuꞌ sa ena, ma nda malole onaꞌ feꞌesaꞌan sa.
3 And YHWH says to Jacob, “Return to the land of your fathers, and to your family, and I am with you.”
Basa ma, LAMATUALAIN olaꞌ no Yakob nae, “Ia naa, fai na losa ena. Ho musi baliꞌ misiꞌ ina-ama mara. Dei fo Au o nggo.”
4 And Jacob sends and calls for Rachel and for Leah to the field to his flock;
Basa naa ma, Yakob denu reu roꞌe Rahel no Lea, fo reu randaa ro e sia mooꞌ mamana banda ra.
5 and says to them, “I am beholding your father’s face—that it is not toward me as before, and the God of my father has been with me,
Boe ma nafadꞌe se nae, “Fai maꞌabui na ia, au mete hei ama ma mata na nasat, ma nda maloleꞌ no au sa onaꞌ maꞌahulu na. Te Lamatualain fo ama ngga namahereꞌ a, no au.
6 and you have known that with all my power I have served your father,
Hei ruꞌa nggi bubꞌuluꞌ, doo basa ia, au tao ues itaꞌ mamate ngga fee hei ama ma!
7 and your father has played on me, and has changed my hire ten times; and God has not permitted him to do evil with me.
Te onaꞌ naa o, ana eꞌedik au lao hetar ena. Ana nggati au bebꞌengge ngga losa lao sanahulu. Mae onaꞌ naa o, Lamatualain nanea nahereꞌ au.
8 If he says thus: The speckled are your hire, then all the flock bore speckled ones; and if he says thus: The striped are your hire, then all the flock bore striped;
Leleꞌ hei ama ma olaꞌ nae, ‘Banda kokotoꞌ ra, seba neu ho,” boe ma, banda ra bꞌonggi na basa se kokotoꞌ. Faiꞌ ruma te, ana olaꞌ fai nae, ‘Ia naa, banda eꞌeꞌta ra dadꞌi ena ma,’ boe ma banda ra bꞌonggi na akaꞌ a eꞌeꞌta ra.
9 and God takes away the substance of your father, and gives to me.
Lamatualain tao taꞌo naa, fo Ana haꞌi nala ama ma banda nara, fee neu au.
10 And it comes to pass at the time of the flock conceiving, that I lift up my eyes and see in a dream, and behold, the male goats, which are going up on the flock, [are] striped, speckled, and spotted;
Lao esa, leleꞌ banda ra fula-fai rahoo na, au ulumein, ae basa banda mone mana mahooꞌ ra, akaꞌ a kokotoꞌ ma eꞌetaꞌ.
11 and the Messenger of God says to me in the dream, Jacob, and I say, Here I [am].
Au ulumein onaꞌ a Lamatualain ate na mia sorga noꞌe au nae, ‘We! Yakob!’ De au utaa ae, ‘Taꞌo bee, Lamatuaꞌ?’
12 And He says, Now lift up your eyes and see [that] all the male goats which are going up on the flock [are] striped, speckled, and spotted, for I have seen all that Laban is doing to you;
Ma ana nafadꞌe nae, ‘Mete dei! Basa banda mana mahooꞌ ra, akaꞌ a kokotoꞌ ma eꞌetaꞌ ra. Au mana tao naa ra, huu Au ita Labꞌan tatao na neu nggo.
13 I [am] the God of Bethel where you have anointed a standing pillar, where you have vowed a vow to me; now, arise, go out from this land, and return to the land of your birth.”
Au ia, Lamatualain mana natudꞌu Ao na neu nggo mia Betel. Sia naa, ho muririi fatu, ma mbori mina neu ata, de beꞌutee neu Au. Boe ma ho tao hehelu-fufuliꞌ mo Au sia naa. Ia naa, ho musi lao hela nusaꞌ ia, fo baliꞌ misiꞌ ina-ama ma nusa na.’”
14 And Rachel answers—Leah also—and says to him, “Have we yet a portion and inheritance in the house of our father?
Boe ma Lea no Rahel rataa rae, “Neu! Hai tunggaꞌ a! Hai nda afiꞌ miꞌena hata-hetoꞌ saa-saa mia ama Labꞌan sa ena.
15 Have we not been reckoned strangers to him? For he has sold us, and he also utterly consumes our money;
Dꞌoo na basa ia, toulasiꞌ a tao hai onaꞌ a atahori feaꞌ. Ana seo hendi hai ma naa hendi hai feli ma ena.
16 for all the wealth which God has taken away from our father, it [is] ours, and our children’s; and now, all that God has said to you—do.”
Basa hata-heto fo Lamatualain haꞌi mia ama Labꞌan, ia naa dadꞌi hita to tititi-nonosiꞌ tara hata-heto na ena. De mete ma Lamatualain nae taꞌo bee, naa, hai tunggaꞌ a!”
17 And Jacob rises, and lifts up his sons and his wives on the camels,
Basa naa ma, Yakob mbedꞌaꞌ-nggao sudꞌi a saa nara, de nafufuaꞌ sao-ana nara reu banda onta ata. Ana o mboo nendi basa banda nara, ma nendi sudꞌi a saa nara fo ana hambu mia Padan Aram, fo baliꞌ Kanaꞌan reu.
18 and leads all his livestock, and all his substance which he has acquired, the livestock of his getting, which he has acquired in Padan-Aram, to go to his father Isaac, to the land of Canaan.
19 And Laban has gone to shear his flock, and Rachel steals the teraphim which her father has;
Leleꞌ naa, Labꞌan neu nggute hiek-lombo ra fulu nara. De Rahel namanaꞌo nendi ama na paton sosonggo na.
20 and Jacob deceives the heart of Laban the Aramean, because he has not declared to him that he is fleeing;
Basa ma, Yakob se lao neneeꞌ a, nda rafadꞌe ama ari na sa.
21 and he flees, he and all that he has, and rises, and passes over the River, and sets his face [toward] the Mount of Gilead.
Ana haꞌi nendi basa hata-heto nara, ma lao haelalai tungga loe Efrat, mbali lete Gilead reu.
22 And it is told to Laban on the third day that Jacob has fled,
Seli fai telu ma, Labꞌan hambu haraꞌ oi, Yakob se rela ena.
23 and he takes his brothers with him, and pursues after him a journey of seven days, and overtakes him in the Mount of Gilead.
Ana naꞌabꞌue atahori nara, de reu oi tungga ana mone feu na. Ara oi tungga se basa fai hitu, dei de hambu se mia lete-leteꞌ mana sia Gilead.
24 And God comes to Laban the Aramean in a dream of the night and says to him, “Take heed to yourself lest you speak with Jacob from good to evil.”
Tetembaꞌ naa, Lamatualain natudꞌu ao na neu Labꞌan mia meit rala. Ana nae, “Labꞌan! Mete ma olaꞌ mo Yakob, naa, munea mulolole bafa ma.”
25 And Laban overtakes Jacob; and Jacob has fixed his tent in the mountain; and Laban with his brothers have fixed [theirs] in the Mount of Gilead.
Tetembaꞌ naa, Yakob naririi lalaat sia lete Gilead. Ma Labꞌan se o raririi sira lalaat na nda naꞌadꞌodꞌooꞌ no naa sa.
26 And Laban says to Jacob, “What have you done that you deceive my heart, and lead away my daughters as captives of the sword?
Basa ma, Labꞌan nema nandaa no Yakob. Ana olaꞌ nae, “He! Yakob! Taꞌo bee de ho mela mendi au ana feto nggara neuꞌ ena taꞌo ia? Onaꞌ a rambas mala se mia musu a.
27 Why have you hidden yourself to flee, and deceive me, and have not declared to me, and I send you away with joy and with songs, with tambourine and with harp,
Hieꞌ o ho mela neeneeꞌ a, nda mutea au saꞌ boe! Onaꞌ a ho mufadꞌe au no malolole na, au tao fefetas, fo ro hei mo lii-liiꞌ ra, basa fo mboꞌi hei lao.
28 and have not permitted me to kiss my sons and my daughters? Now you have acted foolishly in doing [so];
Ho sala ma esa fai, ho nda fee au idꞌu umbu-ana nggara, dei fo mboꞌi hei sa. Tatao ma ia, nggoaꞌ!
29 my hand is to God to do evil with you, but the God of your father last night has spoken to me, saying, Take heed to yourself from speaking with Jacob from good to evil.
Au bisa tao deꞌulaka neu nggo no mudaꞌ! Te tembaꞌ a, Lamatualain, fo ama ma namahereꞌ a, ai au nae, mete ma au olaꞌ o nggo, naa, musi unea bafa ngga malolole.
30 And now, you have certainly gone, because you have been very desirous for the house of your father; why have you stolen my gods?”
Memaꞌ ho mae lao o nda saa saꞌ boe, huu hii maeꞌ a baliꞌ ena. Te taꞌo bee de ho feꞌe mumunaꞌo mendi au paton sosonggo nggara?”
31 And Jacob answers and says to Laban, “Because I was afraid, for I said, Lest you violently take away your daughters from me;
Yakob nataa nae, “Toꞌo afiꞌ mumunasa au! Au lao nenee na, huu umutau, afiꞌ losa toꞌo ai hela ana nggara, naa, taꞌo bee?”
32 with whomsoever you find your gods—he must not live; before our brothers discern for yourself what [is] with me, and take to yourself”: and Jacob has not known that Rachel has stolen them.
Te Yakob nda nahine nae sao na Rahel haꞌi nendi paton naa ra sa. De ana nae, “Toꞌo! Paton naa ra sangga neuꞌ ena! Mete ma hambu sia seka, naa, hukun misa e. Lengga-ofe basa e! Mete ma toꞌo hambu bua pusaka feaꞌ mara, naa, haꞌi mala baliꞌ se. Hela fo basa atahori ia ra, dadꞌi sakasii.”
33 And Laban goes into the tent of Jacob, and into the tent of Leah, and into the tent of the two handmaidens, and has not found; and he goes out from the tent of Leah, and goes into the tent of Rachel.
Boe ma Labꞌan neu lengga-ofe esa-esaꞌ lalaat na. Naꞌahuluꞌ mia Yakob lalaat na. Basa de, mia Lea lalaat na. Dei de ate ina karuaꞌ ra lalaat nara. Te nda nita paton na sa. Dei de, ana nisiꞌ Rahel lalaat na.
34 And Rachel has taken the teraphim, and puts them in the furniture of the camel, and sits on them; and Laban feels all the tent, and has not found;
Te Rahel funi paton naa ra sia banda onta lalakat na raeꞌ. De ana endoꞌ neu lalakat naa ataꞌ. Labꞌan lengga-ofe lutuꞌ-leloꞌ sia Rahel lalaat na, te nda nita sa.
35 and she says to her father, “Let it not be displeasing in the eyes of my lord that I am not able to rise at your presence, for the way of women [is] on me”; and he searches, and has not found the teraphim.
Ma Rahel olaꞌ no ama na nae, “Amaꞌ afiꞌ mumunasa. Au nda umburiiꞌ ala sa, te au hambu hedꞌi inaꞌ.” Boe ma Labꞌan sangga fai, te nda nita paton naa ra sa.
36 And it is displeasing to Jacob, and he strives with Laban; and Jacob answers and says to Laban, “What [is] my transgression? What my sin, that you have burned after me?
Boe ma Yakob namanasa, de bua Labꞌan nae, “Au tao salaꞌ saa o toꞌo? De toꞌo nema oi tungga au, onaꞌ au atahori deꞌulakaꞌ!
37 For you have felt all my vessels: what have you found of all the vessels of your house? Set here before my brothers, and your brothers, and they decide between us both.
Toꞌo lengga-ofe basa sudꞌi a saa ra ena. De toꞌo hambu saa? Tao sobꞌa se reu mataꞌ ia fo basa nggita mete! Naa fo atahori ia ra raꞌetuꞌ, sudꞌiꞌ a saa ra, seka ena na.
38 These twenty years I [am] with you: your ewes and your female goats have not miscarried, and the rams of your flock I have not eaten;
Au dadꞌi toꞌo kuli na, too rua nulu ena. Au unea toꞌo banda nara, esa nda hendir saꞌ boe. Ma au nda ua esa saꞌ boe!
39 the torn I have not brought to you—I repay it—from my hand you seek it; I have been deceived by day, and I have been deceived by night;
Mete ma banda fui ra tao risa toꞌo banda na esa, au nda ufadꞌe toꞌo sa, te au nggati. Ma mete ma atahori ramanaꞌo toꞌo banda na, toꞌo fee au nggati, mae au nda sala sa o.
40 I have been [thus]: drought has consumed me in the day, and frost by night, and my sleep wanders from my eyes.
Rereloꞌ na, relo a haa au. Ma tetembaꞌ na, au maꞌarini huu maꞌasufuꞌ a. Au beꞌe nda sungguꞌ ala sa, huu unea toꞌo banda nara.
41 This [is] to me twenty years in your house: I have served you fourteen years for your two daughters, and six years for your flock; and you change my hire ten times;
Memaꞌ taꞌo naa, losa too rua nulu. Au tao ues too sanahulu haa, de hambu toꞌo ana feto nara. Basa ma, tao ues too nee fai, de hambu banda nggara. Tao ues doo basa na, te toꞌo nggati naꞌamiminaꞌ au sesebꞌa ngga lao sanahulu.
42 unless the God of my father, the God of Abraham, and the Fear of Isaac, had been for me, surely now you had sent me away empty; God has seen my affliction and the labor of my hands, and reproves last night.”
Andiꞌ a Lamatualain, fo baꞌi Abraham no baꞌi Isak ramahereꞌ a. Onaꞌ Ana nda nanea au sa, naa, toꞌo denu oi hendi au ena, no lima rouꞌ. Te Lamatualain nda naꞌapopokeꞌ mata Na neu au sususa ngga sa, ma Ana nita basa ue-taos nggara. Naa de, tembaꞌ a, Ana nema ai toꞌo.”
43 And Laban answers and says to Jacob, “The daughters [are] my daughters, and the sons my sons, and the flock my flock, and all that you are seeing [is] mine; and to my daughters—what do I to these today, or to their sons whom they have born?
Labꞌan rena Yakob olaꞌ taꞌo naa ma, ana nataa nae, “Taꞌo ia! Ana ina karuaꞌ ra naa ra, au ana nggara. Ara bꞌonggi ralaꞌ ra, au umbu nggara. Basa banda ia ra, au ena nggara. Basa ho mitaꞌ ra, memaꞌ au ena ngga. Te au ae tao saa? Au nda bisa ai se sa.
44 And now, come, let us make a covenant, I and you, and it has been for a witness between me and you.”
Malole lenaꞌ, ruꞌa nggita tao hehelu-fufuliꞌ, fo tasodꞌa tungga e.”
45 And Jacob takes a stone, and lifts it up [for] a standing pillar;
Basa ma, Yakob haꞌi fatu monaeꞌ esa, de naririi neu naa, dadꞌi tatandaꞌ.
46 and Jacob says to his brothers, “Gather stones,” and they take stones, and make a heap; and they eat there on the heap;
Ana o denu atahori nara, reu kumbu fatu, fo lutu mbatu. Basa ma, ara endoꞌ raa deka fatu naa ra.
47 and Laban calls it Jegar-Sahadutha; and Jacob has called it Galeed.
Labꞌan babꞌae lutu mbatu naa, Yegar Sahaduta. Te Yakob babꞌae naran, Galeed.
48 And Laban says, “This heap [is] witness between me and you today”; therefore has he called its name Galeed;
Boe ma Labꞌan nae, “Fatu nenelutu mbatuꞌ ia dadꞌi sakasii fee ruꞌa nggita.” Naa de, mamanaꞌ naa, naran, Galeed.
49 Mizpah also, for he said, “YHWH watches between me and you, for we are hidden from one another;
Labꞌan o babꞌae mamanaꞌ naa naran, Mispa (onaꞌ dedꞌea feaꞌ esa, fo sosoa na ‘mamana nenea naruꞌ’), huu ana olaꞌ nae, “Dei fo LAMATUALAIN nanea ruꞌa nggita, fo mae hita esa naꞌadooꞌ no esa o, ata afiꞌ liliꞌ hehelu-fufuliꞌ ia.
50 if you afflict my daughters, or take wives beside my daughters—there is no man with us—see, God [is] witness between me and you.”
Mete ma ho tao deꞌulakaꞌ neu au ana ngga ia ra, do sao mo ina feaꞌ fai, naa, au nda bubꞌuluꞌ sa. Te musunedꞌa! Lamatualain dadꞌi sakasii neu rua nggita.
51 And Laban says to Jacob, “Behold, this heap, and behold, the standing pillar which I have cast between me and you;
Mete sobꞌa fatu mana ririiꞌ ia, no fatu manalutu mbatuꞌ ia. Musunedꞌa, fatu ia ra, o dadꞌi lalaneꞌ. Ho afiꞌ lao seli fatu lalaneꞌ ia ra, fo tao deꞌulakaꞌ neu au. Ma au o afiꞌ lao seli fatu ia ra, fo tao deꞌulakaꞌ neu nggo.
52 this heap [is] witness, and the standing pillar [is] witness, that I do not pass over this heap to you, and that you do not pass over this heap and this standing pillar to me—for evil;
53 the God of Abraham and the God of Nahor, judges between us—the God of their father,” and Jacob swears by the Fear of his father Isaac.
Hita tao hehelu-fufuliꞌ ia, tendiꞌ hita bei-baꞌi nara Lamatualain na. Eni, ho baꞌi ma Abraham, ma au baꞌi ngga Nahor Lamatualain na. Dei fo Ana dadꞌi mana maꞌetuꞌ hita dedꞌea na.” Yakob rena taꞌo naa ma, ana soꞌu susumbaꞌ, nendiꞌ Lamatualain naran fo ama na Isak beꞌutee neuꞌ a.
54 And Jacob sacrifices a sacrifice on the mountain, and calls to his brothers to eat bread, and they eat bread, and lodge on the mountain;
Basa naa ma, Yakob hala banda, de nendi dadꞌi tutunu-hohotuꞌ fee Lamatualain sia leteꞌ naa ata. Ana noꞌe basa atahori ra, de raa raꞌabꞌue, ma beꞌe losa fefetun.
55 and Laban rises early in the morning, and kisses his sons and his daughters, and blesses them; and Laban goes on, and turns back to his place.
Mbila fefetu na ma, Labꞌan neu holu-idꞌu basa umbu-ana nara. Ana olaꞌ fee se papala-babꞌanggiꞌ, de baliꞌ nisiꞌ nusa na.
