< Genesis 31 >
1 And he heard the words of Laban's sons, saying, Jacob hath taken away all that [was] our father's; and of [that] which [was] our father's hath he obtained all this glory.
Jinanji’e ty enta’ o ana-dahi’ i Labaneo, nanao ty hoe, Finao’ Iakòbe ze fonga fanañan-drae’ay; le ty varan-drae’ay ty nampañefoefo aze.
2 And Jacob beheld the countenance of Laban, and behold, it [was] not towards him as before.
Ie niisa’ Iakòbe ty vinta’ i Labàne le naheo’e te tsy niatrefa’e manahake te taolo.
3 And the LORD said to Jacob, Return to the land of thy fathers, and to thy kindred; and I will be with thee.
Aa le hoe t’Iehovà am’ Iakòbe, Mibaliha mb’an-tanen-droae’o mb’aman-drolongo’o mb’eo fa indrezako.
4 And Jacob sent and called Rachel and Leah into the field to his flock,
Aa le nampihitrife’e an-koike t’i Rahkele naho i Leae t’ie homb’ am-piandrazañe mb’am-pirai-lia’e mb’eo.
5 And said to them, I see your father's countenance, that it [is] not towards me as before: but the God of my father hath been with me.
Le nanoa’e ty hoe, Treako ty vintan-drae’areo te tsy iatrefa’e manahake taolo, fe mañimb’ ahy t’i Andrianañaharen-draeko.
6 And ye know that with all my power I have served your father.
Fohi’areo t’ie nitoroñ’ an-drae’areo an-kaozarako iaby,
7 And your father hath deceived me, and changed my wages ten times: but God suffered him not to hurt me.
fe nifañahian-drae’areo naho novae’e im-polo o tambekoo, f’ie tsy nimetean’ Añahare hijoy ahy.
8 If he said thus, The speckled shall be thy wages; then all the cattle bore speckled: and if he said thus, The ring-streaked shall be thy hire; then all the cattle bore ring-streaked.
Ie nanao ty hoe: O varevareo ro tambe’o, le songa niterake varevare o hare’eo, aa ie nanao ty hoe, O tanteharañeo ro tambe’o. Le hene nampipoke tanteharañe o hareo.
9 Thus God hath taken away the cattle of your father, and given [them] to me.
Aa le sininton’ Añahare aman-drae’areo o hare’eo vaho natolo’e ahy.
10 And it came to pass at the time that the cattle conceived, that I lifted up my eyes, and saw in a dream, and behold, the rams which leaped upon the cattle [were] ring-streaked, speckled, and grizzled.
Teo te indraik’ amy sam-pisaheañey le nañinofy Iraho naho niandra vaho nahatrea te hene tanteharañe ndra varevare ndra poake o oselahy nitongoa amo mpirai-liao.
11 And the angel of God spoke to me in a dream, [saying], Jacob: And I said, Here [am] I.
Le hoe t’i anjelin’ Añahare amako ama’ nofy, O Iakòbe, vaho natoiko ty hoe, Intoy iraho.
12 And he said, Lift up now thy eyes and see, all the rams which leap upon the cattle [are] ring-streaked, speckled, and grizzled: for I have seen all that Laban doeth to thee.
Le hoe re, Ampiandrao fihaino vaho mahaoniña te songa tanteharañe ndra varevare ndra poake ty oselahy misahe o hareo, amy te nitreako iaby ze nanoe’ i Labàne ama’o.
13 I [am] the God of Beth-el, where thou anointedst the pillar, [and] where thou vowedst to me a vow: now arise, depart from this land, and return to the land of thy kindred.
Izaho i Andrianañahare’ i Beteley, i nañoriza’o i vatolahiy naho nifanta’oy. Miongaha arè, engao ty toetse toy vaho mimpolia mb’an-tanen-dongo’o añe.
14 And Rachel and Leah answered, and said to him, [Is there] yet any portion or inheritance for us in our father's house?
Aa le hoe ty natoi’ i Rahkele naho i Leae, Mbe aman’ anjara ndra lova añ’anjomban-drae’ay hao zahay?
15 Are we not counted by him strangers; for he hath sold us, and hath quite consumed also our money.
Tsy mone atao’e te ambahiny kanao naleta’e? mbore nabotse’e iaby o lafitihi’aio.
16 For all the riches which God hath taken from our father, that [is] ours, and our children's: now then whatever God hath said to thee, do.
Toe anay naho a o keleia’aio ze fonga hanaña’e nasintan’ Añahare aman-drae’ay; aa le ano ze tsinaran’ Añahare ama’o.
17 Then Jacob arose, and set his sons and his wives upon camels;
Niongak’ amy zao t’Iakòbe naho nampiningire’e an-drameva o vali’eo naho o ana’eo,
18 And he carried away all his cattle, and all his goods which he had gained, the cattle of his getting, which he had gained in Padan-aram; to go to Isaac, his father, in the land of Canaan.
vaho niroahe’e mb’eo ze hene hare’e naho o vara fa natonto’eo, o hanaña’e naho hare niazo’e e Padan’ arameo, vaho nitehafe’e mb’aman-drae’e Ietsake an-tane Kanàne añe.
19 And Laban went to shear his sheep; and Rachel had stolen the images that [were] her father's.
Aa ie fa nimb’am-pañitsifan’ añondri’e mb’eo t’i Labàne, le kinizo’ i Rahkele o ndraharen’ anjomba an-drae’eo.
20 And Jacob stole away unawares to Laban the Syrian, in that he told him not that he was about to depart.
Toe nifañahie’ Iakòbe t’i Labàne t’ie tsy nitalily ama’e te nienga,
21 So he fled with all that he had; and he arose, and passed over the river, and set his face [towards] the mount Gilead.
ie nimotiotse mb’eo naho ze ama’e iaby. Niongake re nitsake i sakay, le nitandrifie’e mb’am-bohibohi’ i Gilade mb’eo ty lahara’e.
22 And it was told Laban on the third day that Jacob had fled.
Natalily amy Labàne amy andro fahateloy te nibioñe t’Iakòbe.
23 And he took his brethren with him, and pursued after him seven days' journey: and they overtook him in the mount Gilead.
Aa le nendese’e o longo’eo naho nihoridañe’e fito andro vaho nahatratse aze am-bohibohi’ i Gilade eo.
24 And God came to Laban, the Syrian, in a dream by night, and said to him, Take heed that thou speak not to Jacob either good or bad.
Le niheo amy Labàne nte-Arame ami’ty nofy t’i Andrianañahare nanao ama’e ty hoe, Mitomira, tsy hisaontsy am’ Iakòbe ndra ty soa ndra ty raty.
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.
Aa le nitra’ i Labàne t’Iakòbe. Fa nañoren-kibohotse am-bohitse ey t’Iakòbe, le nitobe am-bohibohi’ i Gilade ao t’i Labàne mirolongo.
26 And Laban said to Jacob, What hast thou done, that thou hast stolen away unawares to me, and carried away my daughters, as captives [taken] with the sword?
Hoe t’i Labàne am’ Iakòbe, Ino o nanoe’oo? Ie niponiora’o am-pamañahiañe vaho namaoke o anak’ ampelakoo hoe mpirohy nitsepahem-pibara.
27 Why didst thou flee away secretly, and steal away from me, and didst not tell me, that I might have sent thee away with mirth, and with songs, with tabret, and with harp?
Ino ty nibioña’o am-pañahy naho nivokake amako tsy nitalily, ie ho nampionjoneko an-drebeke naho sabo vaho kantsàñe miharo kararàke.
28 And hast not suffered me to kiss my sons, and my daughters? thou hast now done foolishly in [so] doing.
Tsy nimea’o ty hañondrohako o ana-dahiko naho anak’ ampelakoo? Toe nanao hagegean-drehe te nanoa’o.
29 It is in the power of my hand to do you hurt: but the God of your father spoke to me yesternight, saying, Take thou heed that thou speak not to Jacob either good or bad.
An-tañako ty haozarañe hañoho-doza ama’ areo fe nitsara amako ami’ty nofy aniankale t’i Andrianañaharen-drae’o, ty hoe, Mitomira tsy hivolañe ndra soa ndra raty am’ Iakòbe.
30 And now, [though] thou wouldest needs be gone, because thou didst earnestly long after thy father's house; [yet] why hast thou stolen my gods?
Ie amy zao, ndra te tsy nete tsy nionjom-b’eo irehe ami’ty hamaniña’o ty anjomban-drae’o, manao akore te nikamere’o o ndraharekoo?
31 And Jacob answered and said to Laban, Because I was afraid: for I said, It may be thou wouldest take thy daughters from me by force.
Le hoe ty natoi’ Iakobe amy Labane, Toe nihemban-draho, nataoko ho nitavane’o amako o anak’ ampela’oo.
32 With whomsoever thou findest thy gods, let him not live: before our brethren discern thou what [is] thine with me, and take [it] to thee: for Jacob knew not that Rachel had stolen them.
Fe tsy ho veloñe ze isa’o mitañe o ndrahare’oo. Itsikaraho añatrefa’ o longon-tikañeo le endeso ze fanaña’o amako. Toe tsy nifohi’ Iakòbe t’ie kinizo’ i Rahkele.
33 And Laban went into Jacob's tent, and into Leah's tent, and into the two maid-servants' tents; but he found [them] not. Then he went out of Leah's tent, and entered into Rachel's tent.
Aa le nimoake an-kiboho’ Iakòbe ao t’i Labàne, naho an-kiboho’ i Leae, vaho an-kiboho’ i mpitoro-ampela roe rey fe tsy nahaisake. Niakatse an-kiboho’ i Leae naho nizilik’ an-kiboho’ i Rahkele.
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.
Ie amy zao fa rinambe’ i Rahkele o ndrahareo naho napo’e ambanen-pitobohañe an-drameva ao vaho nitoboha’e. Nitsitsife’ i Labàne kodaba i kibohotsey fe tsy nahaoniñe.
35 And she said to her father, Let it not displease my lord that I cannot rise up before thee; for the custom of women [is] upon me. And he searched, but found not the images.
Le hoe re aman-drae’e, Ehe tsy ho viñera’ ty talèko te tsy imeteako ongake añatrefa’o, fa miampela. Aa le nikodebe re fe tsy nitendreke o samposampon-drahao.
36 And Jacob was wroth, and chid with Laban: and Jacob answered, and said to Laban, What [is] my trespass? what [is] my sin, that thou hast so eagerly pursued after me?
Niviñetse amy zao t’Iakòbe le nendaha’e t’i Labàne; hoe t’Iakòbe amy Labàne. Ino o fiolàko? Ino o hakeoko nañoridaña’o ahy an-kelokeo?
37 Whereas thou hast searched all my stuff, what hast thou found of all thy household-stuff? set [it] here before my brethren, and thy brethren, that they may judge betwixt us both.
Aa ndra te nitsitsife’o tsoeke o haraokoo, ino amo haraon’ anjomba’oo ty niisa’o? Apoho añatrefa’ o longokoo naho o longo’oo etoañe, hizaka’ iareo añivon-tika roe.
38 These twenty years [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.
Fa roapolo taoñe henanekeo ty nitraofako ama’o, le lia’e tsy nañary anake o añondri-vave’o naho o ose-vave’oo vaho tsy nihinanako o añondri-lahin-dia-rai’oo.
39 That which was torn by beasts, I brought not to thee; I bore the loss of it; of my hand didst thou require it, [whether] stolen by day, or stolen by night.
Tsy nendeseko ama’o ze nirimitem-biby fa nivavèko i hamotsoañey; pinai’o an-tañako ndra ty kinametse antoandro ndra ty kinizo haleñe.
40 [Thus] I was; in the day the drouth consumed me, and the frost by night; and my sleep departed from my eyes.
Ie nabotse’ ty fipisañañe te handro, nangoratsake te haleñe vaho nibiòña’ ty roro o masokoo.
41 Thus have I been twenty years in thy house: I served thee fourteen years for thy two daughters, and six years for thy cattle: and thou hast changed my wages ten times.
Inay i roapolo taoñe naha-mpiàmañ’ anjomba’o ahy rezay; nitoroñe azo folo-tao-efats’ amby hahazoako i anak’ ampela’o roe rey, vaho enen-taoñe o hare’oo, mbore novae’o im-polo i tambekoy.
42 Except the God of my father, the God of Abraham, and the fear of Isaac had been with me, surely thou hadst now sent me away empty. God hath seen my affliction, and the labor of my hands, and rebuked [thee] yesternight.
Aa naho tsy nimpiamako t’i Andrianañaharen-draeko, t’i Andrianañahare’ i Avrahame, naho i nampañeveñe Ietsàkey le toe ho nampolie’o mañomaño. Nahavazoho o hasotriakoo naho o fitoloñan-tañakoo t’i Andrianañahare vaho nañendak’ azo aniankale.
43 And Laban answered, and said to Jacob, [These] daughters [are] my daughters, and [these] children [are] my children, and [these] cattle [are] my cattle, and all that thou seest [is] mine; and what can I do this day to these my daughters, or to their children which they have borne?
Aa le hoe ty natoi’ i Labàne am’ Iakòbe: Anak’ ampelako o anak’ ampelao, anadahiko o anadahio, hàreko o hareo vaho hene ahiko naho a i anakampelako rey ze isa’o. Fe ino ty hanoeko anito amo anak’ampelakoo, naho amo ana-dahy nisamahe’eo?
44 Now therefore come thou, let us make a covenant, I and thou; and let it be for a witness between me and thee.
Mbetoa arè hifañina, izaho naho ihe; le ie ty ho valolombeloñe añivon-tikañe.
45 And Jacob took a stone, and set it up [for] a pillar.
Aa le nandrambe vato t’Iakòbe vaho natroa’e ho ajiba.
46 And Jacob said to his brethren, Gather stones; and they took stones, and made a heap: and they ate there upon the heap.
Le hoe t’Iakòbe aman-drolongo’e, Amorio vato, le nandrambe vato iereo naho navotre, vaho nikama amy votrem-batoy.
47 And Laban called it Jegar-sahadutha: but Jacob called it Galeed:
Nanoe’ i Labàne ty hoe Iegare-Sahadotà, f’ie natao Iakòbe Galede.
48 And Laban said, This heap [is] a witness between me and thee this day. Therefore was the name of it called Galeed:
Hoe t’i Labàne, Valolombeloñe añivoko naho ihe androany ty votre toy. Aa le natao Galede ty añara’e,
49 And Mizpah; for he said, The LORD watch between me and thee, when we are absent one from another.
naho Mizpa, fa hoe re, Hivazoho añivo’o naho izaho t’Iehovà naho tsy amy ila’ey ty raike.
50 If thou shalt afflict my daughters, or if thou shalt take [other] wives besides my daughters; no man [is] with us; See, God [is] witness betwixt me and thee.
Naho sarerahe’o o anak’ ampelakoo, ndra mañenga valy mandikoatse o anakoo, itika tsy amam-pañalañalañe, tiahio te valolombeloñe añivon-tika t’i Andrianañahare.
51 And Laban said to Jacob, Behold this heap, and behold [this] pillar, which I have cast betwixt me and thee;
Le hoe t’i Labàne am’Iakòbe, Hehe ty votre tia naho ty ajiba najadoko añivo’o naho izaho.
52 This heap [be] witness, and [this] pillar [be] witness, that I will not pass over this heap to thee, and that thou shalt not pass over this heap and this pillar to me, for harm.
Valolombeloñe ty votre tia, naho valolombeloñe ty ajiba toy te tsy handilarako mb’ ama’o mb’eo, vaho tsy ho lika’o ty votre toy ndra ty ajiba toy homb’amako, hañeloke.
53 The God of Abraham, and the God of Nahor, the God of their father, judge betwixt us. And Jacob swore by the fear of his father Isaac.
T’i Andrianañahare’ i Avrahame, naho t’i Andrianañahare’ i Nakore, t’i Andrianañaharen-droae’ iareo ty hizaka añivon-tika. Aa le nifanta amy Fañeveñan-drae’e Ietsàke t’Iakòbe,
54 Then Jacob offered sacrifice upon the mount, and called his brethren to eat bread: and they ate bread, and tarried all night in the mount.
le nañenga soroñe ambohitse eo t’Iakòbe naho kinoi’e o longo’eo hikama, le nikama vaho nialeñe amy vohitsey.
55 And early in the morning Laban arose, and kissed his sons and his daughters, and blessed them: and Laban departed, and returned to his place.
Nañaleñaleñe t’i Labàne t’ie nitroatse naho norofa’e o ana’eo naho o anak’ampela’eo vaho nitata’e. Niavotse amy zao t’i Labane nimpoly mb’ama’e añe.
