Genesis 31

1 And he heard [the] words of [the] sons of Laban saying he has taken Jacob all that [belonged] to father our and from [that] which [belonged] to father our he has acquired all the abundance this.

Pea fanongo ia ki he lea ʻae ngaahi foha ʻo Lepani, ʻo pehē, “Kuo toʻo ʻe Sēkope ʻae ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē ʻa ʻetau tamai; pea kuo ne maʻu ʻae nāunau ni kotoa pē ʻi he meʻa ʻa ʻetau tamai.”

2 And he saw Jacob [the] face of Laban and there! not [was] he with him as yesterday three days ago.

Pea naʻe mamata ʻa Sēkope ki he mata ʻo Lepani, pea vakai, naʻe ʻikai lelei ia kiate ia ʻo hangē ko ia ʻi muʻa.

3 And he said Yahweh to Jacob return to [the] land of fathers your and to kindred your so I may be with you.

Pea pehē ʻe Sihova kia Sēkope, “Foki atu ki he fonua ʻo hoʻo ngaahi tamai mo ho ngaahi kāinga; pea te u ʻiate koe.”

4 And he sent Jacob and he summoned Rachel and Leah the field to flock his.

Pea ʻalu ʻa Sēkope ʻo ne ui mai ʻa Lesieli mo Lia kiate ia ki he ngoue, ki he fanga manu.

5 And he said to them [am] seeing I [the] face of father your that not [is] he to me as yesterday three days ago and [the] God of father my he has been with me.

Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinaua, “ʻOku ou sio ki he mata ʻo hoʻomo tamai ʻoku ʻikai kei ʻiate au, ʻo hangē ko ia ʻi muʻa; ka kuo ʻiate au ʻae ʻOtua ʻo ʻeku tamai.

6 And you you know that with all strength my I have served father your.

Pea ʻoku mo ʻilo naʻaku ngāue ki hoʻomo tamai, ʻaki ʻa ʻeku mālohi kotoa.

7 And father your he has deceived me and he has changed wage[s] my ten times and not he has permitted him God to do harm with me.

Pea kuo kākaaʻi au ʻe hoʻomo tamai, mo ne fakakehe ʻeku totongi ʻo liunga hongofulu; ka naʻe ʻikai tuku ia ʻe he ʻOtua ke u kovi ai.

8 If thus he said speckled [ones] it will be wage[s] your and they bore all the flock speckled [ones] and if thus he said striped [ones] it will be wage[s] your and they bore all the flock striped [ones].

Kapau naʻa ne pehē ʻe ia, ‘Ke ʻoʻou ʻae pulepule ko hoʻo totongi,’ pea fānau leva ʻae fanga manu kotoa pē ko e pulepule: pea kapau naʻa ne pehē, ‘Ko hoʻo totongi ʻae ilaila;’ pea fānau leva ʻae fanga manu kotoa pē ko e ilaila.

9 And he has taken away God [the] livestock of father your and he has given [it] to me.

Ko ia kuo toʻo ʻe he ʻOtua ʻae fanga manu ʻa hoʻomo tamai ʻo foaki ia kiate au.

10 And it was at [the] time mated the flock and I lifted up eyes my and I saw in a dream and there! the male goats which were going up on the flock [were] striped speckled and mottled.

“Pea ʻi he tuituʻia ʻae fanga manu, naʻaku hanga hake hoku mata, ʻo mamata ʻi he misi, pea vakai, ko e fanga sipitangata, naʻe hopo ki he fanga manu naʻe ilaila mo e pulepule mo e kelo.

11 And he said to me [the] angel of God in a dream O Jacob and I said here [am] I.

Pea lea ʻae ʻāngelo ʻae ʻOtua kiate au ʻi he misi, ʻo pehē, ‘Sēkope:’ pea naʻaku pehē, ‘Ko au eni.’

12 And he said lift up please eyes your and see all the male goats which are going up on the flock [are] striped speckled and mottled for I have seen all that Laban [is] doing to you.

Pea pehē ʻe ia, “Hanga hake eni ho mata”, ʻo vakai, ‘Ko e fanga sipitangata ʻoku hopo ki he fanga manu, ko e ilaila mo e pulepule, mo e kelo; he kuo u mamata ki he meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku fai ʻe Lepani kiate koe.

13 I [am] the God of Beth-el where you anointed there a pillar where you vowed to me there a vow now arise go out from the land this and return to [the] land of kindred your.

Ko au ko e ʻOtua ʻo Peteli, ʻaia naʻa ke fakatapui ai ʻae pou, mo ke fai ʻae fuakava kiate au; pea ko eni, ke ke tuʻu, pea ke ʻalu ʻi he fonua ni, ʻo toe ʻalu ki he fonua ʻo ho ngaahi kāinga.’”

14 And she answered Rachel and Leah and they said to him ¿ still [belong] to us [does] a share and an inheritance in [the] household of father our.

Pea pehēange ʻe Lesieli mo Lia kiate ia, “He ʻoku kei ai ha ʻinasi pe tufakanga kiate kimaua ʻi he fale ʻoe ma tamai?

15 ¿ Not foreigners are we accounted by him for he has sold us and he has consumed also continuously money our.

‌ʻIkai kuo ne lau ʻakimaua ko e ongo muli? He kuo ne fakatau ʻakimaua, pea kuo ne fakaʻosiʻosi foki ʻe ma paʻanga.

16 For all the wealth which he has taken away God from father our [belongs] to us it and to children our and therefore all that he has said God to you do.

He ko e koloa kotoa pē kuo toʻo ʻe he ʻOtua mei heʻetau tamai ʻoku ʻatautolu ia, pea mo e tau fānau: pea ko eni, ko e meʻa kotoa pē kuo lea ʻaki ʻe he ʻOtua kiate koe, ke ke fai.”

17 And he arose Jacob and he lifted up children his and wives his on camels.

Pea tuʻu hake ʻa Sēkope, ʻo ne fakaheka ʻa ʻene fānau, mo hono ngaahi uaifi ki he fanga kāmeli;

18 And he drove all livestock his and all possession[s] his which he had accumulated [the] livestock of acquisition his which he had accumulated in Paddan Aram to go to Isaac father his [the] land of towards Canaan.

Pea naʻa ne ʻave ʻene fanga manu kotoa pē, mo ʻene meʻa kotoa pē ʻaia naʻa ne maʻu, ʻae fanga manu naʻe tupu kiate ia, ʻaia naʻa ne maʻu ʻi Petanalami, ke ʻalu ia ki heʻene tamai ko ʻAisake ki he fonua ko Kēnani.

19 And Laban he had gone to shear sheep his and she stole Rachel the teraphim which [belonged] to father her.

Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻa Lepani ke kosi ʻene fanga sipi: pea naʻe kaihaʻasi ʻe Lesieli ʻae ngaahi tamapua ʻa ʻene tamai.

20 And he stole Jacob [the] heart of Laban the Aramean on not he told to him that [was] fleeing he.

Pea ʻalu fakafufū pe ʻa Sēkope meia Lepani, ko e [tangata ]Silia, he naʻe ʻikai te ne tala kiate ia ʻene hola.

21 And he fled he and all that [belonged] to him and he arose and he passed over the river and he set face his [the] hill country of Gilead.

Ko ia naʻe hola ia mo ʻene meʻa kotoa pē: pea tuʻu hake ia ʻo ne laka ʻi he vaitafe, pea hanga hono mata ki he moʻunga ko Kiliate.

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

Pea ʻi hono tolu ʻoe ʻaho, naʻe fakahā kia Lepani, ʻae hola ʻa Sēkope.

23 And he took relatives his with him and he pursued after him a journey of seven days and he overtook him in [the] hill country of Gilead.

Pea naʻa ne ʻalu mo hono kāinga tangata, pea nau tuli ia ʻi he ʻaho ʻe fitu; pea naʻa nau maʻu ia ʻi he moʻunga ko Kiliate.

24 And he came God to Laban the Aramean in [the] dream of the night and he said to him take heed to yourself lest you should speak with Jacob from good unto bad.

Pea naʻe hāʻele mai ʻae ʻOtua kia Lepani ko e [tangata ]Silia, ʻi he misi ʻi he pō, ʻo ne pehē kiate ia, “Vakai, ʻoua naʻa ke lea kia Sēkope ʻi he lelei pe ʻi he kovi.”

25 And he overtook Laban Jacob and Jacob he had pitched tent his in the hill country and Laban he pitched tent with relatives his in [the] hill country of Gilead.

Pea maʻu ʻe Lepani ʻa Sēkope. He naʻe fokotuʻu ʻe Sēkope hono fale fehikitaki ʻi he moʻunga; pea pehē foki ʻa Lepani mo hono kāinga, naʻa nau fokotuʻu fale fehikitaki ʻi he moʻunga ko Kiliate.

26 And he said Laban to Jacob what? have you done and you have stolen heart my and you have led away daughters my like captives of [the] sword.

Pea pehē ʻe Lepani kia Sēkope, “Ko e hā eni kuo ke fai, koeʻuhi kuo ke ʻalu fakafokifā pe, mo ke ʻave hoku ngaahi ʻofefine, ʻo hangē ko e ngaahi pōpula kuo maʻu ʻaki ʻae heletā?

27 Why? did you hide yourself to flee and did you steal? me and not did you tell? to me and I sent away you with gladness and with songs with tambourine and with harp.

Ko e hā kuo ke hola fakafufū ai, hangē ha kaihaʻa meiate au: pea naʻe ʻikai te ke tala kiate au, koeʻuhi ke u tuku ko e ke ʻalu ʻi he fiefia, mo e fai hiva, mo e tā ʻae lali mo e haʻape?

28 And not did you allow? me to kiss sons my and daughters my now you have behaved foolishly to do.

Pea naʻe ʻikai te ke tuku ke u uma ki ho ngaahi foha, mo hoku ngaahi ʻofefine? Kuo ke fai vale ʻi hoʻo fai pehē.

29 There [is] to [the] power of hand my to do with you harm and [the] God of father your last night - he said to me saying take heed to yourself from speaking with Jacob from good unto bad.

‌ʻOku ai ʻae mālohi ʻi hoku nima ke fai kovi kiate koe: ka ko e ʻOtua ʻo hoʻo tamai naʻa ne folofola mai kiate au ʻanepō, ʻo pehē, ‘Vakai, ʻoua naʻa ke lea kia Sēkope, ʻi he lelei, pe ʻi he kovi.’

30 And now certainly you have gone for certainly you longed for [the] household of father your why? did you steal gods my.

Pea ko eni, naʻe totonu hoʻo holi ke ʻalu, he ʻoku ke holi ki he fale ʻo hoʻo tamai, ka ko e hā kuo ke kaihaʻa ai hoku ngaahi ʻotua?”

31 And he answered Jacob and he said to Laban that I was afraid for I said lest you should tear away daughters your from with me.

Pea lea ʻa Sēkope, ʻo ne pehē kia Lepani, “Koeʻuhi naʻaku manavahē, he naʻaku pehē, telia naʻa ke toʻo fakamālohi pe, ʻa ho ngaahi ʻofefine ʻiate au.

32 With [anyone] whom you will find gods your not he will live before relatives our investigate for yourself what? [is] with me and take [it] for yourself and not he knew Jacob that Rachel she had stolen them.

Pea ko ia te ke ʻilo ki ai ʻa ho ngaahi ʻotua ke ʻoua naʻa moʻui ia; ʻi he ʻao ʻo ho ta kāinga, ke ke vakai ʻae meʻa ʻaʻau, pea ke toʻo ia kiate koe.” He naʻe ʻikai ʻilo ʻe Sēkope kuo kaihaʻasi ia ʻe Lesieli.

33 And he went Laban in [the] tent of Jacob - and in [the] tent of Leah and in [the] tent of [the] two the maidservants and not he found [them] and he came out from [the] tent of Leah and he went in [the] tent of Rachel.

Pea hū atu ʻa Lepani ki he fale fehikitaki ʻo Sēkope, mo e fale fehikitaki ʻo Lia, pea mo e fale fehikitaki ʻe ua ʻoe ongo kaunanga; ka naʻe ʻikai te ne ʻilo ia. Pea ʻalu ia mei he fale fehikitaki ʻo Lia, mo ne hū ki he fale fehikitaki ʻo Lesieli.

34 And Rachel she had taken the teraphim and she had put them in [the] saddlebag of the camel and she sat on them and he searched Laban all the tent and not he found [them].

Ka kuo toʻo ʻe Lesieli ʻae ngaahi tamapua, ʻo ne ʻai ia ki he nāunau ʻoe fanga kāmeli, pea heka ai ia. Pea kumi ʻe Lepani ʻi he potu kotoa pē ʻoe fale fehikitaki, ka naʻe ʻikai te ne ʻilo ia.

35 And she said to father her may not it burn in [the] eyes of lord my that not I am able to rise from before you for [the] way of women [belongs] to me and he searched and not he found the teraphim.

Pea pehē ʻe ia ki heʻene tamai. “Ke ʻoua naʻa tuputāmaki ʻa ʻeku ʻeiki, koeʻuhi ʻoku ʻikai te u faʻa tuʻu; he ʻoku ʻiate au ʻae anga fakafefine.” Pea naʻe kumi ia, ka naʻe ʻikai te ne ʻilo ʻae ngaahi tamapua.

36 And it burned to Jacob and he quarreled with Laban and he answered Jacob and he said to Laban what? [is] transgression my what? [is] sin my that you have hotly pursued after me.

Pea naʻe ʻita ʻa Sēkope ʻo lea lahi kia Lepani: pea lea ʻa Sēkope ʻo pehē, kia Lepani, “Ko e hā ʻeku fai kovi? Pea ko e hā ʻeku angahala koeʻuhi ke ke tuli ai au ʻi he lili ni?

37 That you have searched all things my what? did you find of all [the] things of household your put [it] thus before relatives my and relatives your so they may decide between [the] two of us.

He kuo ke kumi ʻi heʻeku meʻa kotoa pē, pea ko e hā hao meʻa kuo ke ʻiloʻi? Fokotuʻu ia ʻi he ʻao ʻo hoku kāinga, mo ho kāinga, koeʻuhi ke nau fakamaau kiate kitaua.

38 This twenty year[s] I [have been] with you ewes your and female goats your not they have miscarried and [the] rams of flock your not I have eaten.

Naʻaku ʻiate koe ʻi he taʻu ʻe uofulu ni, naʻe ʻikai ʻuhimate ʻa hoʻo fanga sipi fefine, mo e fanga kosi fefine, pea ko e sipitangata ʻo hoʻo fanga manu, naʻe ʻikai te u kai.

39 A torn animal not I brought to you I I bore [the] loss of it from hand my you sought it [one] stolen of day and [one] stolen of night.

Ko ia naʻe kai ʻe he manu fekai naʻe ʻikai te u ʻomi kiate koe: naʻaku totongi ia; naʻa ke maʻu ʻae totongi ʻo ia ʻi hoku nima, kapau naʻe kaihaʻa ia ʻi he ʻaho, pe ʻi he pō.

40 I was in the day it consumed me heat and frost in the night and it fled sleep my from eyes my.

Naʻaku pehē au, pea naʻe fakavaivai au ʻe he pupuha ʻi he ʻaho, mo e momoko ʻi he pō; pea mahuʻi ʻae mohe mei hoku mata.

41 This [belonged] to me twenty year[s] in household your I served you four-teen year[s] for [the] two daughters your and six years for flock[s] your and you changed wage[s] my ten times.

Kuo u pehē ni ʻi he taʻu ʻe uofulu ʻi ho fale; naʻaku tauhi koe ʻi he taʻu ʻe hongofulu ma fā, koeʻuhi ko ho ongo ʻofefine, mo e taʻu ʻe ono ki hoʻo fanga manu; pea kuo ke fakakehe ʻeku totongi ʻo liunga hongofulu.

42 If not [the] God of father my [the] God of Abraham and [the] fear of Isaac he had been to me for now empty you sent away me affliction my and ([the] toil of *LB(ah)*) hands my he has seen God and he decided last night.

Ka ne ʻikai ʻiate au ʻae ʻOtua ʻo ʻeku tamai, ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻEpalahame, mo e manavahē kia ʻAisake, pehē kuo ke fekau au ke u ʻalu taʻehaʻakumeʻa.” Kuo ʻafioʻi ʻe he ʻOtua hoku tautea, mo e ngāue ʻa hoku nima, pea ne valoki ko e ʻanepō.

43 And he answered Laban and he said to Jacob the daughters [are] daughters my and the children [are] children my and the flock [is] flock my and all that you [are] seeing [belongs] to me it and for daughters my what? will I do for these this day or for children their whom they have borne.

Pea pehē mai ʻa Lepani kia Sēkope, “Ko e ngaahi ʻofefine ni, ko hoku ngaahi ʻofefine, pea ko e tamaiki ni, ko ʻeku fānau, pea ko e fanga manu ni, ko ʻeku fanga manu, pea ko e meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku ke mamata ki ai ʻoku ʻaʻaku ia: pea ko e hā nai te u fai he ʻaho ni, ki hoku ongo ʻofefine ni, mo e na fānau kuo na fanauʻi?

44 And therefore come! let us make a covenant I and you and it will become a witness between me and between you.

Ko eni ke ke haʻu, ke ta fai ʻae fuakava, ʻa koe mo au; pea tuku ia ko e fakamoʻoni kiate kitaua.”

45 And he took Jacob a stone and he raised up it a pillar.

Pea toʻo ʻe Sēkope ʻae maka, ʻo ne fokotuʻu ia ko e pou.

46 And he said Jacob to relatives his gather stones and they took stones and they made a heap and they ate there at the heap.

Pea pehē ʻe Sēkope ki hono kāinga, “Tānaki ʻae ngaahi maka; pea naʻa nau toʻo ʻae ngaahi maka ʻo fokotuʻu; pea naʻa nau kai ʻi ai, ʻi he fanga maka.”

47 And he called it Laban Jegar Sahadutha and Jacob he called it Galeed.

Pea ui ia ʻe Lepani, ko Sekaa Satuta; ka naʻe ui ia ʻe Sēkope, ko Kaleti.

48 And he said Laban the heap this [is] a witness between me and between you this day there-fore (he called *LA(bh)*) name its Galeed.

Pea pehē ʻe Lepani, “Ko e fokotuʻunga maka ni, ko e fakamoʻoni kiate koe mo au he ʻaho ni. Ko ia naʻe ui ai hono hingoa ko Kaleti mo Misipa.”

49 And Mizpah that he said may he keep watch Yahweh between me and between you for we will be hidden each from neighbor his.

He naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “Ke leʻohi ʻe Sihova kiate au mo koe, ʻi he ʻe ta māvae.

50 If you will mistreat daughters my and if you will take wives to daughters my there not [is] anyone with us see God [is] a witness between me and between you.

Kapau te ke fakamamahi hoku ongo ʻofefine, pea kapau te ke toʻo maʻau ha uaifi kehe, mo hoku ongo ʻofefine, ʻoku ʻikai ha tangata ʻi heni; kae vakai, ko e fakamoʻoni ʻae ʻOtua kiate kitaua:”

51 And he said Laban to Jacob here! - the heap this and here! the pillar which I have set up between me and between you.

Pea pehē ʻe Lepani kia Sēkope, “Vakai ki he ngaahi maka ni, mo e pou ʻaia kuo tuku ʻi ho ta vahaʻa;

52 [is] a witness The heap this and [is] a witness the pillar if I not I will pass beyond to you the heap this and if you not you will pass beyond to me the heap this and the pillar this for harm.

Ke fakamoʻoni ʻe he ʻesi ni, mo e pou ni, ʻe ʻikai te u laka ʻi he potu ʻoe ʻesi ni kiate koe, pea ʻe ʻikai te ke laka ʻi he ʻesi ni kiate au, ke fai ha kovi.

53 [the] God of Abraham and [the] God of Nahor may they judge between us [the] God of father their and he swore Jacob by [the] fear of father his Isaac.

Ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻEpalahame, mo e ʻOtua ʻo Nehoa, ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻena tamai, fakamaau kiate kitaua.” Pea naʻe fuakava ʻa Sēkope, ʻi he manavahē ʻo ʻene tamai ko ʻAisake.

54 And he sacrificed Jacob a sacrifice in the hill country and he invited relatives his to eat food and they ate food and they stayed [the] night in the hill country.

Pea feilaulau ʻa Sēkope ʻi he moʻunga, pea naʻa ne ui hono kāinga ke nau kai: pea naʻa nau kai ʻae mā, pea nau mohe ʻi he moʻunga ʻi he pō ko ia.

55 And he rose early Laban in the morning and he kissed sons his and daughters his and he blessed them and he went and he returned Laban to own place his.

Pea tuʻu hengihengi hake pe ʻa Lepani, mo ne uma ki hono ngaahi foha, mo hono ongo ʻofefine, ʻo ne tāpuaki ʻakinautolu; pea ʻalu ʻa Lepani, ʻo toe foki ki hono potu.
