< Genesis 31 >

1 Aftir that Jacob herde the wordis of the sones of Laban, that seiden, Jacob hath take awei alle thingis that weren oure fadris, and of his catel Jacob is maad riche, and noble.
Jekọb nụrụ na ụmụ ndị ikom Leban na-asị, “Jekọb ewerechaala ihe niile nna anyị nwere. O sitere nʼihe nna anyị nwere kpata akụnụba ya niile.”
2 Also Jacob perseyuede the face of Laban, that it was not ayens hym as yistirdai, and the thridde dai agoon,
Jekọb hụkwara na omume Leban nʼebe ọ nọ adịghịkwa otu ọ dị na mbụ.
3 moost for the Lord seide to hym, Turne ayen into the lond of thi fadris, and to thi generacioun, and Y shal be with thee.
Mgbe ahụ, Onyenwe anyị sịrị Jekọb, “Laghachi nʼala nna gị ha, lakwuru ụmụnna gị, aga m anọnyere gị.”
4 He sente, and clepide Rachel, and Lya, in to the feeld, where he kepte flockis, and he seide to hem,
Ya mere, Jekọb ziri Rechel na Lịa ozi ka ha bịakwute ya nʼọhịa ebe ọ nọ na-elekọta igwe anụ ụlọ ya.
5 Y se the face of youre fadir, that it is not ayens me as `yisterdai and the thridde dai agoon; but God of my fadir was with me.
Ọ sịrị ha, “Ahụla m na omume nna unu nʼebe m nọ adịghịkwa otu ọ dị na mbụ. Ma Chineke nna m ha nọnyeere m.
6 And ye witen that with alle my strengthis Y seruede youre fadir;
Unu maara na eji m ike m niile rụọra nna unu ọrụ.
7 but and youre fadir disseyuyde me, and chaungide my meede ten sithis; and netheles God suffride not hym to anoye me.
Ma nna unu ghọgburu m, gbanwee ụgwọ ọrụ m ugboro iri. Otu ọ dị, Chineke ekweghị ka nna unu merụọ m ahụ.
8 If he seide ony tyme, Dyuerse colourid sheep schulen be thi medis, alle sheep brouyten forth dyuerse colourid lambren; forsothe whanne he seide ayenward, Thou shalte take alle white for mede, alle the flockis brouyten forth white beestis;
Ọ bụrụ na ọ sị, ‘Ndị tụrụ agwa agwa ga-abụ ụgwọ ọrụ gị,’ mgbe ahụ, igwe anụ ụlọ niile na-amụ ụmụ na-abụ ndị tụrụ agwa. Ma ọ bụrụ na ọ sị, ‘Ndị niile nwere ntụpọ ga-abụ ụgwọ ọrụ gị,’ mgbe ahụ, igwe anụ ụlọ niile na-amụ ụmụ na-enwe ntụpọ ọcha nʼahụ ha.
9 and God took a wey the substaunce of youre fadir, and yaf to me.
Chineke napụrụ nna unu anụ ụlọ ya ma nye m ha.
10 For aftir that the tyme of conseyuyng of sheep cam, Y reiside myn iyen, and seiy in sleep malis dyuerse, and spotti, and of dyuerse colouris, stiynge on femalis.
“Nʼoge ụmụ anụ ụlọ ji atụ ime, eweliri m anya hụ na nrọ na ụmụ mkpi niile na-agba igwe nne ewu bụ ụmụ mkpi ndị tụrụ agwa agwa, ndị nwere akara maọbụ ndị nwere ntụpọ ọcha nʼahụ ha.
11 And the aungel of the Lord seide to me in sleep, Jacob! and Y answeride, Y am redy.
Mgbe ahụ, mmụọ ozi Chineke sịrị m na nrọ, ‘Jekọb.’ Azara m sị, ‘Lee m nʼebe a.’
12 Which seide, Reise thin iyen, and se alle malis dyuerse, byspreynt, and spotti, stiynge on femalis; for Y seiy alle thingis whiche Laban dide to thee;
Ọ sịrị m, ‘Lelie anya gị elu, lee ka ị hụ na mkpi niile na-agba igwe nne ewu ndị a bụ mkpi ndị ahụ tụrụ agwa agwa, ndị nwere akara maọbụ ndị nwere ntụpọ ọcha. Nʼihi na ahụla m ihe niile Leban na-eme gị.
13 Y am God of Bethel, where thou anoyntidist a stoon, and madist auow to me. Now therefor rise thou, and go out of this lond, and turne ayen in to the lond of thi birthe.
Mụ onwe m bụ Chineke nke Betel, ebe ị wụkwasịrị mmanụ nʼogidi nkume ahụ, ebe ị kwekwara m nkwa. Ugbu a, kulie, hapụ obodo a, laghachi nʼala a nọ mụọ gị.’”
14 And Rachel and Lya answeriden, Wher we han ony thing residue in the catels, and eritage of oure fadir?
Rechel na Lịa zara sị ya, “Anyị ka nwere oke nʼihe nketa nʼụlọ nna anyị?
15 Wher he `arettide not vs as aliens, and selde, and eet oure prijs?
Ọ bụghị dịka ndị ọbịa ka ọ gụnyeziri anyị? Nʼihi na o reela anyị, ripịakwa ụgwọ isi anyị.
16 But God took awei the richessis of oure fadir, and yaf tho to vs, and to oure sones; wherfor do thou alle thingis whiche God hath comaundide to thee.
Nʼezie, akụ ndị ahụ Chineke napụrụ nna anyị bụ nke anyị na nke ụmụ anyị. Ya mere, mee ihe ọbụla Chineke sị gị mee.”
17 Forsothe Jacob roos, and puttide hise fre children and wyues on camels, and yede forth;
Jekọb biliri, kukwasị ụmụ ya na ndị nwunye ya nʼelu ịnyịnya kamel,
18 and he took al his catel, flockis, and what euer thing he hadde gete in Mesopotanye, and yede to Isaac, his fadir, into the lond of Canaan.
duru igwe anụ ụlọ ya niile, na ihe ọ kpatara na Padan Aram, lakwuru nna ya Aịzik nʼala Kenan.
19 In that tyme Laban yede to schere scheep, and Rachel stal the idols of hir fadir.
Ka Leban gara ịkpachapụ ajị ụmụ atụrụ ya, Rechel zuuru arụsị ezinaụlọ nna ya.
20 And Jacob nolde knouleche to the fadir of his wijf, that he wolde fle;
Jekọb ghọkwara Leban onye Aram aghụghọ nʼihi na ọ gwaghị ya na ọ na-agbapụ ọsọ.
21 and whanne he hadde go, as wel he as alle thingis that weren of his riyt, and whanne he hadde passid the water, and he yede ayens the hil of Galaad,
Ya mere, o buru ihe niile o nwere gbapụ ọsọ, gbafee iyi ukwu Yufretis, chee ihu nʼala ugwu ugwu Gilead.
22 it was teld to Laban, in the thridde dai, that Jacob fledde.
Abalị atọ agafeelarị tupu a gwa Leban na Jekọb agbalaala.
23 And Laban took his britheren, and pursuede hym seuene daies, and took hym in the hil of Galaad.
O duuru ndị ikwu ya chụọ Jekọb ọsọ abalị asaa tupu ọ chụkwute ya nʼala ugwu ugwu Gilead.
24 And Laban seiy in sleep the Lord seiynge to him, Be war that thou speke not ony thing sharpli ayens Jacob.
Ma Chineke bịakwutere Leban onye Aram na nrọ nʼabalị sị ya, “Kpachapụ anya gị, hụ na o nweghị ihe ị gwara Jekọb, maọbụ okwu dị mma, maọbụ nke dị njọ.”
25 And thanne Jacob hadde stretchid forth the tabernacle in the hil; and whanne he hadde sued Jacob with his britheren, `he settide tente in the same hil of Galaad; and he seide to Jacob,
Jekọb amaala ụlọ ikwu ya nʼala ugwu Gilead mgbe Leban chụkwutere ya. Leban na ndị ikwu ya makwara ụlọ ikwu nke ha nʼebe ahụ.
26 Whi hast thou do so, that the while I wiste not thou woldist dryue awey my douytris as caitifs by swerd?
Leban sịrị Jekọb, “Gịnị bụ ihe a i mere? Ị ghọgbuola m. I burula ụmụ m ndị inyom dịka ndị a dọtara nʼagha?
27 Whi woldist thou fle the while Y wiste not, nether woldist shewe to me, that Y shulde sue thee with ioie, and songis, and tympans, and harpis?
Gịnị mere i ji ghọgbuo m, zoro ezo gbapụ? Gịnị mere ị gwaghị m ka m jiri ọṅụ na ịbụ abụ nke ya na ịkpọ ụbọ akwara na iti ịgba so, zilaga gị?
28 Thou suffridist not that Y schulde kisse my sones and douytris; thou hast wrouyt folili.
Gịnị mere i nyeghị m ohere ka m sutu ụmụ ụmụ m na ụmụ m ndị inyom ọnụ sị ha laa nke ọma? Omume a i mere bụ omume nzuzu.
29 And now sotheli myn hond mai yelde yuel to thee, but the God of thi fadir seide to me yisterdai, Be war that thou speke not ony harder thing with Jacob.
Enwere m ike merụọ gị ahụ ugbu a, ma Chineke nke nna gị mere ka m hụ ya anya na nrọ nʼabalị gara aga. Ọ dọrọ m aka na ntị sị m, ‘Kpachapụ anya gị hụ na o nweghị ihe ị gwara Jekọb, maọbụ okwu dị mma, maọbụ nke dị njọ.’
30 Suppose, if thou coueitedist to go to thi kynesmen, and the hows of thi fadir was in desir to thee, whi hast thou stole my goddis?
Ugbu a, ị na-ala nʼihi na ọ gụrụ gị agụụ ịlaghachi nʼụlọ nna gị, ma gịnị mere i ji zuru chi m?”
31 Jacob answeride, That Y yede forth while thou wistist not, Y dredde lest thou woldist take awey thi douytris violentli;
Jekọb zara sị Leban, “Nʼihi na m tụrụ egwu, nʼihi na m chere sị na ị ga-eji ike napụ m ụmụ gị ndị inyom a.
32 sotheli that thou repreuest me of thefte, at whom euer thou fyndist thi goddis, be he slayn bifor oure britheren; seke thou, what euer thing of thine thou fyndist at me, and take awei. Jacob seide these thingis, and wiste not that Rachel stal the idols.
Ma ọ bụrụ na ị chọta onye ọbụla ji chi gị ndị a, onye ahụ ga-anwụ. Nʼihu ndị ikwu gị ndị a, chọgharịa nʼonwe gị, lee ma ị ga-achọta ihe ọbụla bụ nke gị dị m nʼaka. Ọ bụrụ na ị chọta ya, were ya.” Ma Jekọb amaghị na Rechel zuuru chi ndị ahụ.
33 And so Laban entride into the tabernacle of Jacob, and of Lya, and of euer eithir meyne, and foond not; and whanne Laban hadde entrid in to the tente of Rachel,
Ya mere, Leban bara nʼụlọ ikwu Jekọb, na nʼime ụlọ ikwu Lịa, na nʼime ụlọ ikwu ndị odibo nwanyị abụọ ya, ma o nweghị ihe ọ chọtara. O sitere nʼụlọ ikwu Lịa pụta baa nʼụlọ ikwu Rechel.
34 sche hastide, and hidde the idols vndur the strewyngis of the camel, and sat aboue. And sche seide to Laban, sekynge al the tente and fyndynge no thing,
Nʼoge a, Rechel ewerela arụsị ezinaụlọ ndị ahụ tinye ha nʼime akwa e ji anọkwasị nʼelu ịnyịnya kamel nọdụ ọdụ nʼelu ya. Leban chọgharịrị ebe niile nʼime ụlọ ikwu ahụ ma ọ chọtaghị arụsị ezinaụlọ ndị ahụ.
35 My lord, be not wrooth that Y may not rise bifore thee, for it bifelde now to me bi the custom of wymmen; so the bisynesse of the sekere was scorned.
Mgbe ahụ, Rechel gwara nna ya Leban sị, “Biko, ewela iwe nna m ukwu, nʼihi na enweghị m ike ibili ọtọ nʼihu gị. Anọ m nʼọnọdụ ndị inyom na-anọ kwa ọnwa.” Leban chọgharịrị ebe niile, ma ọ hụghị arụsị ezinaụlọ ndị ahụ.
36 And Jacob bolnyde, and seide with strijf, For what cause of me, and for what synne of me, hast thou come so fersly aftir me,
Iwe were Jekọb megide Leban. O ji iwe jụọ Leban sị, “Gịnị bụ njehie m? Gịnị bụ mmehie m mere i ji si otu a na-achụsi m ike?
37 and hast souyt al `the portenaunce of myn hous? What `hast thou founde of al the catel of thin hows? Putte thou here bifore my britheren and thi britheren, and deme thei betwixe me and thee.
Ugbu a, ị chọgharịala nʼibu m niile, gịnị ka ị chọtara bụ nke gị? Wepụta ya nʼihu ndị ikwu gị na nʼihu ndị nke m, ka ha kpeere mụ na gị ikpe.
38 Was I with thee herfore twenti yeer? Thi sheep and geet weren not bareyn, Y eet not the rammes of thi flok,
“Iri afọ abụọ ka mụ na gị nọrọ. O nweghị mgbe ime pụrụ ụmụ ewu na atụrụ gị; o nwekwaghị mgbe m riri ebule si nʼigwe anụ ụlọ gị.
39 nether Y schewide to thee ony thing takun of a beeste; Y yeldide al harm; what euer thing perischide bi thefte, thou axidist of me;
O nweghị mgbe m welataara gị anụ ụlọ nke anụ ọhịa dọgburu, kama akwụrụ m ụgwọ ha. I mekwara ka m kwụghachi gị anụ ụlọ ọbụla e zuru nʼohi, maọbụ nʼehihie, maọbụ nʼabalị.
40 Y was angwischid in dai and nyyt with heete and frost, and sleep fledde fro myn iyen;
Nʼime oke anwụ nke ehihie ka m rụụrụ gị ọrụ. Rụọkwara gị ọrụ nʼoge oyi na-atụ, nʼabalị ụra sikwa nʼanya m pụọ.
41 so Y seruede thee bi twenti yeer in thin hows, fourtene yeer for thi douytris, and sixe yeer for thi flockis; and thou chaungidist my mede ten sithis.
Otu a ka ọ dịrị m iri afọ abụọ m jeere gị ozi. Arụrụ m gị ọrụ afọ iri na anọ maka ụmụ gị ndị inyom abụọ ndị a, afọ isii ka m lekọtara igwe ewu na atụrụ gị. Ị nọkwa nʼime ihe ndị a gbanwee ụgwọ ọrụ m ugboro iri.
42 If God of my fadir Abraham, and the drede of Isaac hadde not helpid me, perauenture now thou haddist left me nakid; the Lord bihelde my turmentyng and the traueyl of myn hondis, and repreuyde thee yistirdai.
A sị na Chineke m, Chineke Ebraham, onye ahụ a na-atụ egwu nke Aịzik, anọnyereghị m, ị gaara ezilaga m nʼaka efu, agaara m agbara aka laa. Ma Chineke ahụla ịrụsị ọrụ ike m, na nhụju anya m niile, ọ bụ ya mere o ji baara gị mba nʼabalị gara aga.”
43 Laban answeride hym, The douytris, and thi sones, and flockis, and alle thingis whiche thou seest, ben myne, what mai Y do to my sones, and to the sones of sones?
Mgbe ahụ Leban zaghachiri sị Jekọb, “Ndị inyom ndị a bụ ụmụ m. Ụmụaka ndị a bụ ụmụ m. Igwe anụ ụlọ ndị a bụ nke m. Ihe ndị a niile ị na-ahụ anya bụ nke m. Olee otu m ga-esi merụọ ụmụ m, na ụmụ ụmụ m ahụ?
44 Therfor come thou, and make we boond of pees, that it be witnessyng bitwixe me, and thee.
Ugbu a, bịa ka anyị gbaa ndụ mụ na gị, ka ọ bụrụ ihe ama nʼetiti anyị.”
45 And so Jacob took a stoon, and reiside it in to a signe, and seide to hise britheren,
Ya mere, Jekọb weere otu nkume guzo ya ọtọ dịka ogidi.
46 Brynge ye stoonus; whiche gadriden, and maden an heep, and eten on it.
Jekọb gwakwara ndị so ya sị ha, “Tụtụkọta nkume.” Ha tụtụkọtara nkume wụsa ha nʼotu ebe mee ka ọ laa elu. Emesịa, ha nọdụrụ nʼakụkụ nkume ndị ahụ rie nri.
47 And Laban clepide it the heep of wittnesse, and Jacob clepide it the heep of witnessyng; euer eithir clepide bi the proprete of his langage.
Leban kpọrọ nkume ndị ahụ Jega-Sahaduta, nʼasụsụ nke ya. Jekọb kpọrọ ya Galeed, nʼasụsụ nke ya.
48 And Laban seide, This heep schal be witnesse bytwixe me and thee to day, and herfor the name therof was clepid Galaad, that is, the heep of witnesse.
Emesịa, Leban sịrị, “Ka nkume ndị a bụrụ ihe ama nʼetiti mụ na gị taa.” Nke a mere e ji kpọọ ya Galeed.
49 And Laban addide, The Lord biholde, and deme bitwixe vs, whanne we schulen go awei fro yow;
A kpọkwara ya Mizpa, nʼihi na Leban sịrị, “Ka Onyenwe anyị bụrụ onye ga-eche mụ na gị nche ịhụ na onye ọbụla nʼime anyị debere ọgbụgba ndụ a, mgbe anyị na-anọghị ibe anyị nso.
50 if thou schalt turmente my douytris, and if thou schal brynge yn othere wyues on hem, noon is witnesse of oure word, outakun God, whiche is present, and biholdith.
Ọ bụrụ na i mee ụmụ m ndị inyom ihe ọjọọ, maọbụ lụọ ndị inyom ndị ọzọ tinyere ha, o nweghị onye nʼime anyị ga-amata, ma cheta na Chineke ga-abụ onyeama nʼetiti mụ na gị.”
51 And eft he seide to Jacob, Lo! this heep, and stoon, whiche Y reiside bitwixe me and thee, schal be witnesse;
Leban gwakwara Jekọb sị, “Lee nkume ndị a a wụsara nʼebe a na ogidi m mere ka o guzo nʼetiti mụ na gị.
52 sotheli this heep, and stoon be in to witnessyng, forsothe if Y schal passe it, and go to thee, ether thou shalt passe, and thenke yuel to me.
Nkume ndị a a wụsara bụ akaebe, ogidi a bụkwa ihe ama. Agaghị m agabiga nkume ndị a a wụsara gafeeta nʼakụkụ nke gị ime gị ihe ọjọọ. Gị onwe gị agaghị agabiga nkume ndị a a wụsara na ogidi a gafeeta nʼakụkụ nke m ime m ihe ọjọọ.
53 God of Abraham, and God of Nachor, God of the fadir of hem, deme bitwixe vs. Therfor Jacob swoor by the drede of his fadir Ysaac;
Ka Chineke Ebraham na Chineke Nahọ, Chineke nna ha, bụrụ onye ikpe nʼetiti mụ na gị.” Ya mere Jekọb ji onye ahụ a na-atụ egwu nke nna ya Aịzik ṅụọ iyi.
54 and whanne slayn sacrifices weren offrid in the hil, he clepyde his britheren to ete breed, and whanne thei hadden ete, thei dwelliden there.
Ọ chụrụ aja nʼala ugwu ugwu ahụ, kpọọ ndị ikwu ya niile oriri. Mgbe ha richara nri, ha rahụrụ ụra nʼebe ahụ.
55 Forsothe Laban roos bi nyyt, and kisside his sones, and douytris, and blesside hem, and turnede ayen in to his place.
Nʼisi ụtụtụ echi ya, Leban biliri sutu ụmụ ya ndị inyom na ụmụ ụmụ ya ọnụ. Ọ gọziri ha, hapụ ha laghachi ụlọ ha.
