Genesis 31
1 Now Jacob heard the words of Laban's sons, that they said, “Jacob has taken away all that was our father's, and it is from our father's possessions that he has gotten all this wealth.”
Lao esa, Yakob rena Labꞌan ana nara ola-olaꞌ rae, “Yakob namasuꞌi seli, huu ana ao nabasaꞌ hita ama na hata-heto nara.”
2 Jacob saw the look on Laban's face. He saw that his attitude toward him had changed.
Yakob o mete ama ari na matan nda matetuꞌ sa ena, ma nda malole onaꞌ feꞌesaꞌan sa.
3 Then Yahweh said to Jacob, “Return to the land of your fathers and to your relatives, and I will be 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 Jacob sent and called Rachel and 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 said to them, “I see your father's attitude toward me has changed, but 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 You know that it is with all my strength that I have served your father.
Hei ruꞌa nggi bubꞌuluꞌ, doo basa ia, au tao ues itaꞌ mamate ngga fee hei ama ma!
7 Your father has deceived me and changed my wages ten times, but God has not permitted him to hurt 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 said, 'The speckled animals will be your wages,' then all the flock bore speckled young. If he said, 'The striped will be your wages,' then the whole flock bore striped young.
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 In this way God has taken away the livestock of your father and given them to me.
Lamatualain tao taꞌo naa, fo Ana haꞌi nala ama ma banda nara, fee neu au.
10 Once at the time of breeding season, I saw in a dream the male goats that were mating with the flock. The male goats were 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 The angel of God said to me in the dream, 'Jacob.' I said, '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 He said, 'Lift up your eyes and see all the male goats that are breeding with the flock. They are striped, speckled, and spotted, for I have seen everything 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 anointed a pillar, where you made a vow to me. Now rise up and leave 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 Rachel and Leah answered and said to him, “Is there any portion or inheritance for us in our father's house?
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 Are we not treated by him as foreigners? For he has sold us and has also completely devoured 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 riches that God has taken away from our father are now ours and our children's. Now then, whatever God has said to you, do it.”
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 Then Jacob arose and placed his sons and his wives upon 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 He drove all his livestock ahead of him, along with all his property, including the livestock he had acquired in Paddan Aram. Then he set out to go to his father Isaac in the land of Canaan.
19 When Laban had gone to shear his sheep, Rachel stole her father's household gods.
Leleꞌ naa, Labꞌan neu nggute hiek-lombo ra fulu nara. De Rahel namanaꞌo nendi ama na paton sosonggo na.
20 Jacob also deceived Laban the Aramean, by not telling him that he was leaving.
Basa ma, Yakob se lao neneeꞌ a, nda rafadꞌe ama ari na sa.
21 So he fled with all that he had and quickly passed over the River, and headed toward the hill country of Gilead.
Ana haꞌi nendi basa hata-heto nara, ma lao haelalai tungga loe Efrat, mbali lete Gilead reu.
22 On the third day Laban was told that Jacob had fled.
Seli fai telu ma, Labꞌan hambu haraꞌ oi, Yakob se rela ena.
23 So he took his relatives with him and pursued him for a seven days' journey. He overtook him in the hill country 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 Now God came to Laban the Aramean in a dream at night and said to him, “Be careful that you speak to Jacob neither good nor bad.”
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 Laban overtook Jacob. Now Jacob had pitched his tent in the hill country. Laban also camped with his relatives in the hill country of Gilead.
Tetembaꞌ naa, Yakob naririi lalaat sia lete Gilead. Ma Labꞌan se o raririi sira lalaat na nda naꞌadꞌodꞌooꞌ no naa sa.
26 Laban said to Jacob, “What have you done, that you deceived me and carried away my daughters like prisoners of war?
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 did you flee secretly and trick me and did not tell me? I would have sent you away with celebration and with songs, with tambourine and with harps.
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 You did not allow me to kiss my grandsons and my daughters good bye. Now you have done foolishly.
Ho sala ma esa fai, ho nda fee au idꞌu umbu-ana nggara, dei fo mboꞌi hei sa. Tatao ma ia, nggoaꞌ!
29 It is in my power to do you harm, but the God of your father spoke to me last night and said, 'Be careful that you speak to Jacob neither good nor bad.'
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 Now you have gone away because you longed to return to your father's house. But why did you steal 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 Jacob answered and said to Laban, “Because I was afraid and thought that you would take your daughters from me by force I left secretly.
Yakob nataa nae, “Toꞌo afiꞌ mumunasa au! Au lao nenee na, huu umutau, afiꞌ losa toꞌo ai hela ana nggara, naa, taꞌo bee?”
32 Whoever has stolen your gods will not continue to live. In the presence of our relatives, identify whatever with me is yours and take it.” For Jacob did not know that Rachel had 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 Laban went into Jacob's tent, into Leah's tent, and into the tent of the two female servants, but he did not find them. He went out of Leah's tent and entered into Rachel's tent.
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 Now Rachel had taken the household gods, put them in a camel's saddle, and sat upon them. Laban searched the whole tent, but did not find them.
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 She said to her father, “Do not be angry, my master, that I cannot stand up before you, for I am having my period.” So he searched but did not find his household gods.
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 Jacob was angry and argued with Laban. He said to him, “What is my offense? What is my sin, that you have hotly pursued 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 searched all my possessions. What have you found of all your household goods? Set them here before our relatives, so that they may judge between us two.
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 For twenty years I have been with you. Your ewes and your female goats have not miscarried, nor have I eaten any rams from your flocks.
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 What was torn by beasts I did not bring to you. Instead, I bore the loss of it. You always made me pay for every missing animal, whether stolen by day or stolen 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 There I was; in the day the heat consumed me, and the frost by night; and I went without sleep.
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 These twenty years I have been in your household. I worked for you fourteen years for your two daughters, and six years for your flock. You have changed my wages 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 one Isaac fears, had been with me, surely now you would have sent me away empty-handed. God has seen my oppression and how hard I worked, and he rebuked you 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 Laban answered and said to Jacob, “The daughters are my daughters, the grandchildren are my grandchildren, and the flocks are my flocks. All that you see is mine. But what can I do today to these my daughters, or to their children whom they have borne?
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 So now, let us make a covenant, you and I, and let it be for a witness between you and me.”
Malole lenaꞌ, ruꞌa nggita tao hehelu-fufuliꞌ, fo tasodꞌa tungga e.”
45 So Jacob took a stone and set it up as a pillar.
Basa ma, Yakob haꞌi fatu monaeꞌ esa, de naririi neu naa, dadꞌi tatandaꞌ.
46 Jacob said to his relatives, “Gather stones.” So they took stones and made a pile. Then they ate there by the pile.
Ana o denu atahori nara, reu kumbu fatu, fo lutu mbatu. Basa ma, ara endoꞌ raa deka fatu naa ra.
47 Laban called it Jegar Saha Dutha, but Jacob called it Galeed.
Labꞌan babꞌae lutu mbatu naa, Yegar Sahaduta. Te Yakob babꞌae naran, Galeed.
48 Laban said, “This pile is a witness between me and you today.” Therefore its name was called Galeed.
Boe ma Labꞌan nae, “Fatu nenelutu mbatuꞌ ia dadꞌi sakasii fee ruꞌa nggita.” Naa de, mamanaꞌ naa, naran, Galeed.
49 It is also called Mizpah, because Laban said, “May Yahweh watch between you and me, when we are out of sight one from 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 mistreat my daughters, or if you take any wives besides my daughters, although no one else is with us, see, God is witness between you and me.”
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 Laban said to Jacob, “Look at this pile, and look at the pillar, which I have set between you and me.
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 pile is a witness, and the pillar is a witness, that I will not pass beyond this pile to you, and that you will not pass beyond this pile and this pillar to me, to do harm.
53 May the God of Abraham, and the god of Nahor, the gods of their father, judge between us.” Jacob swore 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 Jacob offered a sacrifice on the mountain and called his relatives to eat a meal. They ate and spent the entire night 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 Early in the morning Laban got up, kissed his grandsons and his daughters and blessed them. Then Laban left and returned home.
Mbila fefetu na ma, Labꞌan neu holu-idꞌu basa umbu-ana nara. Ana olaꞌ fee se papala-babꞌanggiꞌ, de baliꞌ nisiꞌ nusa na.
