Genesis 31

1 Then heard he the words of the sons of Laban, saying, Jacob hath taken away all that belonged to our father; Yea out of what belonged to our father, hath he made all this wealth.

Jakọbu sì gbọ́ pé àwọn ọmọ Labani ń wí pé, “Jakọbu ti gba gbogbo ohun ìní baba wa, ó sì ti kó ọrọ̀ jọ fún ara rẹ̀ lára àwọn ohun tí í ṣe ti baba wa.”

2 And Jacob looked upon the face of Laban, —and lo! it was not with him as afore-time.

Jakọbu sì ṣàkíyèsí pé ìwà Labani sí òun ti yí padà sí ti àtẹ̀yìnwá.

3 Then said Yahweh unto Jacob, Return unto the land of thy fathers and to thy kindred, —that I may be with thee.

Nígbà náà ni Olúwa wí fún Jakọbu pé, “Padà lọ sí ilẹ̀ àwọn baba à rẹ, sí ọ̀dọ̀ àwọn ará rẹ, èmi ó sì wà pẹ̀lú rẹ.”

4 So Jacob sent, and called for Rachel and for Leah, to the field unto his flock;

Jakọbu sì ránṣẹ́ pe Rakeli àti Lea sí pápá níbi tí àwọn ohun ọ̀sìn rẹ̀ wà.

5 and said to them, Beholding, am I the face of your father, that it is not towards me as aforetime, —nevertheless, the God of my father, hath been with me;

Ó sì wí fún wọn pé, “Mo rí i wí pé ìwà baba yín sí mi ti yí padà sí ti tẹ́lẹ̀, ṣùgbọ́n Ọlọ́run baba mi wà pẹ̀lú mi.

6 and, ye, know that with all my vigour, have I served your father.

Ẹ sá à mọ̀ pé, mo ti fi gbogbo agbára mi ṣiṣẹ́ fún baba yín,

7 But, your father, hath deceived me, and hath changed my wages ten times, —yet God hath not suffered him to deal harmfully with me.

síbẹ̀síbẹ̀ baba yín ti rẹ́ mi jẹ ní ẹ̀ẹ̀mẹwàá ọ̀tọ̀ọ̀tọ̀ ni ó sì ti yí owó iṣẹ́ mi padà. Ṣùgbọ́n Ọlọ́run kò jẹ́ kí ó le è pa mi lára.

8 If thus he saith, The speckled, shall be thy wages, then do all the flock bring forth speckled, —But if thus he saith, The ring-straked, shall be thy wages, then do all the flock bring forth ring-straked.

Tí ó bá wí pé, ‘Àwọn ẹran onílà ni yóò dúró fún owó iṣẹ́ rẹ,’ nígbà náà ni gbogbo àwọn ẹran ń bí onílà; bí ó bá sì wí pé, ‘Àwọn ẹran onítótòtó ni yóò dúró fún owó iṣẹ́ rẹ,’ nígbà náà ni gbogbo ẹran ń bi onítótòtó.

9 So hath God stripped away the herds of your father, and given them to me.

Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Ọlọ́run gba ẹran baba yín, ó sì fi fún mi.

10 And it came to pass in the season when the flock were in heat, then lifted I mine eyes and beheld in a dream, —and lo! the he-goats that were leaping upon the flock, were ring-straked speckled and dappled.

“Ní àsìkò tí àwọn ẹran ń gùn, mo la àlá mo sì ri pé àwọn òbúkọ tí wọ́n ń gun àwọn ẹran jẹ́ onítótòtó, onílà àti alámì.

11 And the messenger of God said unto me in a dream, Jacob! and I said, Behold me!

Angẹli Ọlọ́run wí fún mi nínú àlá náà pé, ‘Jakọbu.’ Mo sì wí pé, ‘Èmi nìyí.’

12 Then he said Lift, I pray thee, thine eyes and behold All, the he-goats that are leaping upon the flock are ring-straked, speckled, and dappled, —for I have seen all that Laban, has been doing to thee.

Ó sì wí pé, ‘Gbé ojú rẹ sókè kí o sì wò ó, gbogbo àwọn òbúkọ tí ó ń gun àwọn ẹran jẹ́ onítótòtó, onílà àti alámì, nítorí mo ti rí gbogbo ohun ti Labani ń ṣe sí ọ.

13 I, am the GOD of Beth-el, where thou didst anoint a pillar, where thou didst vow to me a vow, —Now, rise, go forth out of this land, and return unto the land of thy kindred.

Èmi ni Ọlọ́run Beteli, níbi tí ìwọ ti ta òróró sí ọ̀wọ́n, ìwọ sì jẹ́ ẹ̀jẹ́ láti sìn mi. Nísinsin yìí, kúrò ní ilẹ̀ yìí kíákíá kí o sì padà sí ilẹ̀ ibi tí a gbé ti bí ọ.’”

14 Then responded Rachel and Leah, and said to him, —Have we any longer a portion or an inheritance in the house of our father?

Nígbà náà ni Rakeli àti Lea dáhùn pé, “Ìpín wo ní a ní nínú ogún baba wa?

15 Are we not accounted, aliens, to him seeing that having sold us, he hath then gone on devouring, our silver?

Àjèjì ha kọ́ ni ó kà wá sí? Kì í ṣe torí pé ó tà wá nìkan, ṣùgbọ́n ó ti ná gbogbo owó tí ó gbà lórí wa tán.

16 Surely all the riches which God hath stripped off from our father, unto us, it belongeth, and unto our sons, —Now, therefore, whatsoever God hath said unto thee, do.

Dájúdájú gbogbo ọrọ̀ ti Ọlọ́run gbà lọ́wọ́ baba wa fún ọ, tiwa àti ti àwọn ọmọ wa ní í ṣe. Nítorí náà ohun gbogbo tí Ọlọ́run bá pàṣẹ fun ọ láti ṣe ni kí ìwọ kí ó ṣe.”

17 So Jacob arose, —and mounted his sons and his wives on the camels;

Nígbà náà ni Jakọbu gbé àwọn ọmọ àti aya rẹ̀ gun ìbákasẹ.

18 and drave away all his herds and all his goods which he had gathered, the gains he had gained, which he had gathered in Padan-aram; that he might go in unto Isaac his father unto the land of Canaan.

Ó sì da gbogbo agbo ẹran rẹ̀ ṣáájú pẹ̀lú gbogbo ọrọ̀ tí ó ti kójọ ni Padani-Aramu, láti lọ sí ọ̀dọ̀ Isaaki baba rẹ̀ ni ilẹ̀ Kenaani.

19 Now, Laban, had gone, to shear his sheep, —so Rachel stole the household gods that belonged to her father,

Nígbà tí Labani sì lọ láti rẹ́run àgùntàn, Rakeli sì jí àwọn ère òrìṣà ilé baba rẹ̀.

20 Thus Jacob stole away unawares to Laban, the Syrian, —in that he had not told him that he was about to flee.

Síwájú sí i, Jakọbu tan Labani ará Aramu, nítorí kò sọ fún un wí pé òun ń sálọ.

21 So he fled, he—and all that he had, and he arose, and passed over the River, —and set his face towards the mountain of Gilead.

Ó sì sálọ pẹ̀lú ohun gbogbo tí ó ni, ó sì la odò kọjá (Eufurate), ó sì kọrí sí àwọn ilẹ̀ olókè ti Gileadi.

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

Ní ọjọ́ kẹta ni Labani gbọ́ pé Jakọbu ti sálọ.

23 So he took his brethren with him, and pursued after him a journey of seven days—and overtook him in the mountain of Gilead.

Ó sì mú àwọn arákùnrin rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú rẹ̀, ó sì lépa Jakọbu, ó sì lépa wọn fún ọjọ́ méje, ó sì bá wọn ní òkè Gileadi.

24 And God went in unto Laban the Syrian in a dream of the night, —and said to him Take heed to thyself that thou speak not with Jacob either good or bad.

Ọlọ́run sì yọ sí Labani ará Aramu lójú àlá ní òru, ó sì wí fun un pé, “Ṣọ́ra, má ṣe sọ ohunkóhun fún Jakọbu, ìbá à ṣe rere tàbí búburú.”

25 So then Laban came up with Jacob, —Jacob, having pitched his tent in the mountain, Laban, also, with his brethren pitched in the mountain of Gilead.

Jakọbu ti pa àgọ́ rẹ̀ si orí òkè kan, nígbà tí Labani bá a. Labani àti àwọn tí ó wá pẹ̀lú rẹ̀ sì pàgọ́ tì wọ́n sí ilẹ̀ òkè Gileadi.

26 Then said Laban to Jacob, What hadst thou done, that thou shouldst steal away unawares to me, —and shouldst carry off my daughters, as captives of the sword?

Nígbà náà ni Labani wí fún Jakọbu pé, “Èwo ni ìwọ ṣe yìí? Tí ìwọ sì tàn mi, ó sì kó àwọn ọmọbìnrin mi bi ìgbèkùn tí a fi idà mú.

27 Wherefore didst thou secretly flee, and rob me, —and didst not tell me, that I might send thee away with rejoicing and with songs, with timbrel and with lyre;

Èéṣe tí ìwọ yọ́ lọ tí ìwọ sì tàn mi? Kí ló dé tí ìwọ kò sọ fún mi pé ìwọ ń lọ, kí èmi fi ayọ̀ àti orin, pẹ̀lú ìlù àti ohun èlò orin sìn ọ́.

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

Ìwọ kò tilẹ̀ jẹ́ kí èmi fi ẹnu ko àwọn ọmọ ọmọ mi lẹ́nu, pẹ̀lú àwọn ọmọbìnrin mi pé ó dìgbà? Ìwọ ṣiwèrè ní ohun tí ìwọ ṣe yìí.

29 It is in the power of my hand, to deal with thee for harm, —but the God of your father, last night, spake unto me, saying, Take heed to thyself that thou speak not with Jacob, either good or bad.

Mo ní agbára láti ṣe ọ ni ibi, ṣùgbọ́n ní òru àná, Ọlọ́run baba rẹ sọ fún mi pé, kí èmi ṣọ́ra, kí èmi má ṣe sọ ohun kan fún Jakọbu, ìbá à ṣe rere tàbí búburú.

30 But, now, though thou, didst even take thy journey, because thou, didst sorely long, for the house of thy father, wherefore didst thou steal away my gods?

Nísinsin yìí, ìwọ ti lọ nítorí ìwọ fẹ́ láti padà lọ sí ilé baba rẹ, ṣùgbọ́n èéṣe tí ìwọ fi jí àwọn òrìṣà mi?”

31 And Jacob answered and said unto Laban, —Because I was afraid, for I said, Lest thou take by force thy daughters from me!

Jakọbu dá Labani lóhùn pé, “Ẹ̀rù ni ó bà mi nítorí, mo rò pé ìwọ le fi tipátipá gba àwọn ọmọbìnrin rẹ lọ́wọ́ mi.

32 He with whom thou find thy gods, shall not live! Before our brethren, note thou for thyself what is with me and take what is thine. Neither did Jacob know that, Rachel, had stolen them.

Ṣùgbọ́n bí o bá ri ẹnikẹ́ni pẹ̀lú ère rẹ, kí ẹni náà di òkú. Ó tún wí pé, níwájú gbogbo ìbátan wa báyìí, wò ó fúnra rẹ̀, bí o bá rí ohunkóhun tí í ṣe tìrẹ, mú un.” Jakọbu kò sì mọ̀ pé, Rakeli ni ó jí àwọn òrìṣà náà.

33 Then entered Laban into the tent of Jacob and into the tent of Leah and into the tent of the two handmaids, and found nothing, —then went he forth out of the tent of Leah, and entered into the tent of Rachel.

Labani sì lọ sínú àgọ́ Jakọbu àti ti Lea àti ti àwọn ìránṣẹ́bìnrin méjèèjì, kò sì rí ohunkóhun. Lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí ó jáde nínú àgọ́ Lea ni ó lọ sí àgọ́ Rakeli.

34 Now Rachel, had taken the household gods and put them in the basket-saddle of the camel, and taken her seat upon them. And Laban felt about throughout all the tent, and found them not.

Rakeli sì gbé àwọn òrìṣà náà sínú gàárì ìbákasẹ, ó sì jókòó lé e lórí. Labani sì wá gbogbo inú àgọ́, kò sì rí ohunkóhun.

35 And she said unto her father, Let it not be vexing in the eyes of my lord that I cannot rise up at thy presence, for, the way of women, is upon me. So he made search, but found not the household gods,

Rakeli sì wí fún baba rẹ̀ pé, “Má ṣe bínú pé èmi ò le dìde dúró níwájú rẹ baba à mi, ohun tí ó fà á ni pé, mò ń ṣe nǹkan oṣù lọ́wọ́.” Ó sì wá àgọ́ kiri, kò sì rí àwọn òrìṣà ìdílé náà.

36 And it was vexing to Jacob and he contended with Laban, —and Jacob responded and said to Laban, What was my trespass, what my sin, that thou shouldst have come burning after me?

Inú sì bí Jakọbu, ó sì pe Labani ní ìjà pé, “Kí ni ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ mi? Ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ wo ni mo ṣẹ̀ ọ tí ìwọ fi ń lépa mi bí ọ̀daràn?

37 Now that thou hast felt about among all my goods, what hast thou found of the goods of thine own house? Set it out here, right before my brethren and thy brethren, —that they may give sentence betwixt us two.

Nísinsin yìí tí ìwọ ti tú gbogbo ẹrù mi wò, kí ni ohun tí í ṣe tirẹ̀ tí ìwọ rí? Kó wọn kalẹ̀ báyìí níwájú gbogbo ìbátan rẹ àti tèmi, kí wọn kí ó sì ṣe ìdájọ́ láàrín àwa méjèèjì.

38 This twenty years’ time, have, I, been with thee—Thy ewes and thy she-goats, have not cast their young, —And the rams of thy flock, have I not eaten,

“Mo ti wà lọ́dọ̀ rẹ fún ogún ọdún, àwọn àgùntàn tàbí ewúrẹ́ rẹ kò sọnù bẹ́ẹ̀ n kò pa ọ̀kan jẹ rí nínú àwọn àgbò rẹ.

39 The torn, have I not brought in unto thee—I bare the loss, At my hand, didst thou require it, —Stolen by day, or stolen by night.

Èmi kò mú ọ̀kankan wá fún ọ rí nínú èyí tí ẹranko búburú fàya, èmi ni ó fi ara mọ́ irú àdánù bẹ́ẹ̀. Ẹrankẹ́ran tí wọ́n bá sì jí lọ, lọ́sàn án tàbí lóru, ìwọ ń gba owó rẹ̀ lọ́wọ́ mi.

40 Thus have I been—By day, drought hath consumed me, And, frost, by, night, —So that my sleep fled away from mine eyes.

Báyìí ni mo wà; oòrùn ń pa mi lọ́sàn án, òtútù ń pa mi lóru, mo sì ń ṣe àìsùn.

41 This, hath been my lot twenty years in thy house, —I served thee fourteen years for thy two daughters, And six years for thy sheep—And thou didst change my wages ten times: —

Báyìí ni ohun gbogbo rí fún ogún ọdún tí mo fi wà nínú ilé rẹ. Ọdún mẹ́rìnlá ni mo fi sìn ọ́ fún àwọn ọmọbìnrin rẹ méjèèjì, mo sì sìn ọ fún ọdún mẹ́fà fún àwọn ẹran ọ̀sìn, lẹ́ẹ̀mẹ́wàá ni o sì yí owó iṣẹ́ mi padà.

42 But that the God of my father—The God of Abraham, and the Dread of Isaac—Proved to be mine, Surely even now, empty, hadst thou let me go? My humiliation and the wearying toil of my hands, God had seen, And therefore gave sentence last night!

Bí ó bá ṣe pé Ọlọ́run àwọn baba mi, Ọlọ́run Abrahamu àti ẹ̀rù Isaaki kò wà pẹ̀lú mi ni, ìwọ ìbá ti lé mi jáde lọ́wọ́ òfo. Ṣùgbọ́n, Ọlọ́run ti rí gbogbo ìpọ́njú mi àti iṣẹ́ àṣekára tí mo fi ọwọ́ mi ṣe, ó sì kìlọ̀ fún ọ lóru àná.”

43 Then responded Laban and said unto Jacob—the daughters, are my daughters, And the sons, are my sons, And the sheep are my sheep, And, all that, thou, beholdest, To me doth it belong! But to my daughters, what can I do to these this day, Or to their sons whom they have borne?

Labani sì dá Jakọbu lóhùn, “Tèmi ni àwọn obìnrin wọ̀nyí, ọmọ mi ni àwọn ọmọ wọ̀nyí pẹ̀lú, àwọn agbo ẹran yìí, tèmi ni wọ́n pẹ̀lú. Gbogbo ohun tí o rí wọ̀nyí, tèmi ni. Kí ni mo wá le ṣe sí àwọn ọmọbìnrin wọ̀nyí àti àwọn ọmọ wọn tí wọn bí?

44 Now, therefore, come on! Let us solemnise a covenant, I and thou, —So shall it be a witness betwixt me and thee.

Wá, jẹ́ kí a dá májẹ̀mú pẹ̀lú ara wa, èyí yóò sì jẹ́ ẹ̀rí ní àárín wa.”

45 So Jacob took a stone, —and set it up as a pillar.

Jakọbu sì mú òkúta kan ó sì gbé e dúró bí ọ̀wọ́n.

46 Then said Jacob to his brethren—Gather stones. And they took stones and made a heap, —and they did eat there, by the heap.

Ó sì wí fún àwọn ìbátan rẹ̀ pé, “Ẹ kó àwọn òkúta díẹ̀ jọ.” Wọ́n sì kó òkúta náà jọ bí òkìtì wọ́n sì jẹun níbẹ̀.

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

Labani sì pe orúkọ rẹ̀ ní Jegari-Sahaduta, ṣùgbọ́n Jakọbu pè é ni Galeedi.

48 Then said Laban: This heap, be witness betwixt me, and thee, to-day. For this cause, is the name thereof called Galeed;

Labani sì wí pé, “Òkìtì yìí jẹ́ ẹ̀rí láàrín èmi àti ìwọ ní òní.” Ìdí nìyí tí a fi pe orúkọ rẹ̀ ni Galeedi.

49 also, The Watch Tower, as to which it is said, Yahweh watch betwixt me and thee, when we are parted one from another.

Ó tún pè é ni Mispa nítorí, ó wí pé, “Kí Olúwa kí ó máa ṣọ́ èmi àti ìwọ nígbà tí a bá yà kúrò lọ́dọ̀ ara wa tán.

50 If thou oppress my daughters, or if thou take wives besides my daughters, —there may be no man with us—see! God, be witness betwixt me, and thee!

Bí o bá fìyà jẹ àwọn ọmọbìnrin mi, tàbí tí o fẹ́ aya mìíràn yàtọ̀ sí wọn, rántí pé, Ọlọ́run ń bẹ láàrín wa bí ẹlẹ́rìí bí ẹnikẹ́ni kò tilẹ̀ sí.”

51 And Laban said to Jacob—Behold this heap, and behold this pillar, which I have set betwixt me, and thee:

Labani tún sọ síwájú fún Jakọbu pé, “Òkìtì àti ọ̀wọ̀n tí mo gbé kalẹ̀ láàrín èmi àti ìwọ yìí,

52 A witness, be this heap, and, a witness, the pillar, —That, I, am not to pass, unto thee, over this heap, And, thou, art not to pass, unto me, over this heap and this pillar for harm.

yóò jẹ́ ẹ̀rí wí pé èmi kò ni ré ọ̀wọ̀n àti òkìtì yìí kọjá láti bá ọ jà àti pé ìwọ pẹ̀lú kì yóò kọjá òkìtì tàbí ọ̀wọ̀n yìí láti ṣe mí ní ibi.

53 The Gods of Abraham and the Gods of Nahor judge betwixt us—the Gods of their fathers. And Jacob sware by the Dread of his father Isaac:

Ǹjẹ́ kí Ọlọ́run Abrahamu àti Ọlọ́run Nahori, àti Ọlọ́run baba wọn ṣe ìdájọ́ láàrín wa.” Jakọbu sì fi ẹ̀rù Isaaki baba rẹ̀ búra.

54 and Jacob offered sacrifice in the mountain, and called on his brethren to eat bread. So they did eat bread, and tarried the night in the mountain.

Jakọbu sì rú ẹbọ níbẹ̀ ni orí òkè, ó sì pe àwọn ẹbí rẹ̀ láti jẹun. Lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí wọ́n ti jẹun, ibẹ̀ náà ni wọ́n sùn ní ọjọ́ náà.

55 And Laban rose up early in the morning, and kissed his sons and his daughters, and blessed them: and Laban went his way and returned to his place.

Ní kùtùkùtù òwúrọ̀ ọjọ́ kejì, Labani fi ẹnu ko àwọn ọmọ ọmọ rẹ̀ lẹ́nu àti àwọn ọmọbìnrin rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú, ó sì súre fún wọn. Labani sì padà lọ sí ilé.
