< Genesis 31 >
1 And he heareth the words of Laban's sons, saying, 'Jacob hath taken all that our father hath; yea, from that which our father hath, he hath made all this honour;'
A i rongo ia i nga kupu a nga tama a Rapana, e ki ana, Kua riro i a Hakopa nga mea katoa a to tatou papa; na nga mea hoki a to tatou papa i whiwhi ai ia ki tenei kororia katoa.
2 and Jacob seeth the face of Laban, and lo, it is not with him as heretofore.
A ka titiro a Hakopa ki te mata o Rapanga, na, kihai i pera ki a ia me to era rangi ake.
3 And Jehovah saith unto Jacob, 'Turn back unto the land of thy fathers, and to thy kindred, and I am with thee.'
A ka mea a Ihowa ki a Hakopa, E hoki ki te whenua o ou matua, ki ou whanaunga hoki; a ka tata ahau ki a koe.
4 And Jacob sendeth and calleth for Rachel and for Leah to the field unto his flock;
Na ka tono tangata a Hakopa hei karanga i a Rahera raua ko Rea ki tana kahui, ki te parae,
5 and saith to them, 'I am beholding your father's face — that it is not towards me as heretofore, and the God of my father hath been with me,
A ka mea ia ki a raua, E kite ana ahau i te mata o to korua papa, kahore e pera mai ki ahau me to era rangi ake; otiia i tata mai ki ahau te Atua o toku papa.
6 and ye — ye have known that with all my power I have served your father,
E mohio ana ano korua, i poto katoa atu toku kaha ki taku mahi ki to korua papa.
7 and your father hath played upon me, and hath changed my hire ten times; and God hath not suffered him to do evil with me.
Ko to korua papa ia i tinihanga ki ahau, ka tekau rawa ana whakaputanga ketanga i oku utu; otiia kihai ia i tukua e te Atua kia tukino i ahau.
8 'If he say thus: The speckled are thy hire, then bare all the flock speckled ones; and if he say thus: The ring-streaked are thy hire, then bare all the flock ring-streaked;
Mehemea i korero penei ia, Hei nga mea whai tongitongi te utu mou; na, he mea tongitongi katoa nga whanau o nga kahui: a, mehemea ia i ki penei, Hei nga mea whakahekeheke he utu mou, na, he whakahekeheke katoa nga whanau o nga kahui.
9 and God taketh away the substance of your father, and doth give to me.
Koia i tangohia ai e Ihowa nga hipi a to korua papa, a homai ana ki ahau.
10 'And it cometh to pass at the time of the flock conceiving, that I lift up mine eyes and see in a dream, and lo, the he-goats, which are going up on the flock, [are] ring-streaked, speckled, and grisled;
Na, i te wa i whakahaputia ai te kahui, ka maranga ake oku kanohi, a ka kite moemoea ahau, ko nga toa i ekengia ai nga kahui, he whakahekeheke, he mea whai tongitongi, he mea kotingotingo.
11 and the messenger of God saith unto me in the dream, Jacob, and I say, Here [am] I.
I korero moemoea mai ano te anahera a te Atua ki ahau, E Hakopa: a ka mea atu ahau, Tenei ahau.
12 'And He saith, Lift up, I pray thee, thine eyes, and see — all the he-goats which are going up on the flock [are] ring-streaked, speckled, and grisled, for I have seen all that Laban is doing to thee;
Na ka mea mai ia, Tena, whakaarahia ake ou kanohi, ka titiro ki nga toa katoa e ekeeke ana i nga kahui, he whakahekeheke, he whai tongitongi, he kotingotingo hoki: kua kite hoki ahau i nga mea katoa i mea nei a Rapana ki a koe.
13 I [am] the God of Bethel where thou hast anointed a standing pillar, where thou hast vowed a vow to me; now, arise, go out from this land, and turn back unto the land of thy birth.'
Ko ahau te Atua o Peteere, o te wahi i whakawahi na koe i te pou, i puaki ai hoki tau kupu taurangi ki ahau: kati, whakatika, haere atu i tenei whenua, hoki atu ki te whenua i whanau ai koe.
14 And Rachel answereth — Leah also — and saith to him, 'Have we yet a portion and inheritance in the house of our father?
Na ka whakahoki a Rahera raua ko Rea, ka mea ki a ia, Tera atu ano ianei tetahi wahi, tetahi taonga tupu ranei mo maua i roto i te whare o to maua papa?
15 have we not been reckoned strangers to him? for he hath sold us, and he also utterly consumeth our money;
Kahore ianei maua i te kiia e ia he wahine ke noa atu? kua hokona nei hoki maua e ia, kua pau rawa ano i a ia a maua moni.
16 for all the wealth which God hath taken away from our father, it [is] ours, and our children's; and now, all that God hath said unto thee — do.'
Mo tatou nei hoki, mo a tatou tamariki nga taonga katoa i tangohia nei e te atua i to maua papa: na, tena, meatia nga mea katoa i kiia e te Atua ki a koe.
17 And Jacob riseth, and lifteth up his sons and his wives on the camels,
Na ka whakatika a Hakopa, a whakaekea ana e ia ana tamariki me ana wahine ki runga ki nga kamera;
18 and leadeth all his cattle, and all his substance which he hath acquired, the cattle of his getting, which he hath acquired in Padan-Aram, to go unto Isaac his father, to the land of Canaan.
A kawhakina atu ana e ia ana kararehe katoa, me ona taonga katoa i whiwhi ai ia, nga kararehe i whiwhi ai ia, i riro hoki i a ia i Paranaarama, a haere ana ki a Ihaka, ki tona papa, ki te whenua o Kanaana.
19 And Laban hath gone to shear his flock, and Rachel stealeth the teraphim which her father hath;
Na ko Rapana kua riro ki te kutikuti i ana hipi: katahi ka tahaetia e Rahera nga whakapakoko a tona papa.
20 and Jacob deceiveth the heart of Laban the Aramaean, because he hath not declared to him that he is fleeing;
Na tahuti ana a Hakopa i a Rapana Hiriani, kihai hoki i whakaaturia tona omanga ki a ia.
21 and he fleeth, he and all that he hath, and riseth, and passeth over the River, and setteth his face [toward] the mount of Gilead.
Na ka oma ia, me ana mea katoa; i whakatika ia, ka whiti i te awa, i ahu hoki tona mata ki te maunga, ki Kireara.
22 And it is told to Laban on the third day that Jacob hath fled,
A i te toru o nga ra ka korerotia ki a Rapana, kua oma a Hakopa.
23 and he taketh his brethren with him, and pursueth after him a journey of seven days, and overtaketh him in the mount of Gilead.
Na ka tango ia i ona teina hei hoa mona, a ka wahi i a ia, e whitu nga ra ki te ara; a mau atu ia i a ia ki Maunga Kirera.
24 And God cometh in unto Laban the Aramaean in a dream of the night, and saith to him, 'Take heed to thyself lest thou speak with Jacob from good unto evil.'
Na ka puta moemoea te Atua ki a Rapana Hiriani i te po, ka mea ki a ia, Kia tupato kei korero koe ki a Hakopa, ahakoa pai, ahakoa kino.
25 And Laban overtaketh Jacob; and Jacob hath fixed his tent in the mount; and Laban with his brethren have fixed [theirs] in the mount of Gilead.
Na ka mau a Hakopa i a Rapana, Na tera kua whakaturia e Hakopa tona teneti ki te maunga: heoi whakaturia ana hoki e Rapana ratou ko ona teina ki Maunga Kirera.
26 And Laban saith to Jacob, 'What hast thou done that thou dost deceive my heart, and lead away my daughters as captives of the sword?
Na ka mea a Rapana ki a Hakopa, He mahi aha tau, i tahuti mai nei koe i ahau, i kahaki mai nei hoki i aku tamahine, ano he parau na te hoari?
27 Why hast thou hidden thyself to flee, and deceivest me, and hast not declared to me, and I send thee away with joy and with songs, with tabret and with harp,
He aha i huna ai e koe tou omanga, i tahuti mai ai i ahau; a kihai i korero mai ki ahau, kia tukua ai koe e ahau i runga i te hari, i nga waiata, i te timipera, i te hapa;
28 and hast not suffered me to kiss my sons and my daughters? — now thou hast acted foolishly in doing [so];
Kihai ano ahau i tukua e koe kia kihi i aku tama, i aku tamahine? he mahi poauau tenei mahi au.
29 my hand is to God to do evil with you, but the God of your father yesternight hath spoken unto me, saying, Take heed to thyself from speaking with Jacob from good unto evil.
He kaha kei toku ringa hei whakatupu kino i a koutou: otiia kua korero mai te Atua o to koutou papa ki ahau inapo, kua mea mai, Kia tupato kei korero atu koe, ahakoa pai, ahakoa kino, ki a Hakopa.
30 'And now, thou hast certainly gone, because thou hast been very desirous for the house of thy father; why hast thou stolen my gods?'
Na, ahakoa i whakamatea e koe tou haere, no te mea i koroa e koe te whare o tou papa, he aha ra koe i tahae ai i oku atua?
31 And Jacob answereth and saith to Laban, 'Because I was afraid, for I said, Lest thou take violently away thy daughters from me;
Na ka whakahoki a Hakopa, ka mea ki a Rapana, No te mea hoki i wehi ahau: i mea hoki ahau, Kei tangohia e koe au tamahine i ahau.
32 with whomsoever thou findest thy gods — he doth not live; before our brethren discern for thyself what [is] with me, and take to thyself:' and Jacob hath not known that Rachel hath stolen them.
Ko te tangata e kitea e koe ou atua i a ia, kaua ia e whakaorangia: tirohia iho e koe i te aroaro o o taua teina ko ehea mea au kei ahau, ka tango atu ai mau. Kihai hoki a Hakopa i mohio, kua tahaetia aua mea e Rahera.
33 And Laban goeth into the tent of Jacob, and into the tent of Leah, and into the tent of the two handmaidens, and hath not found; and he goeth out from the tent of Leah, and goeth into the tent of Rachel.
Na ka haere a Rapana ki te teneti o Hakopa, ki te teneti hoki o Rea, ki te teneti ano hoki o nga pononga wahine tokorua; a kihai i kitea. A ka puta atu ia i te teneti o Rea, a ka tomo atu ki te teneti o Rahera.
34 And Rachel hath taken the teraphim, and putteth them in the furniture of the camel, and sitteth upon them; and Laban feeleth all the tent, and hath not found;
Na tera kua tikina nga whakapakoko e Rahera, kua whaongia ki roto ki te nohoanga kamera, a nohoia iho e ia. Na poto katoa te teneti te whawha e Rapana, a kihai i kitea.
35 and she saith unto her father, 'Let it not be displeasing in the eyes of my lord that I am not able to rise at thy presence, for the way of women [is] on me;' and he searcheth, and hath not found the teraphim.
Na ka mea ia ki tona papa, Kei riri mai toku ariki moku e kore e ahei te whakatika ake ki tou aroaro; no te mea ko to te wahine mate tenei kei ahau. Na rapu noa ia, kihai i kitea nga whakapakoko.
36 And it is displeasing to Jacob, and he striveth with Laban; and Jacob answereth and saith to Laban, 'What [is] my transgression? what my sin, that thou hast burned after me?
Na ka riri a Hakopa, ka ngangare ki a Rapana: a ka oho a Hakopa, ka mea ki a Rapana, He aha toku hara? he aha toku he, i takare ai koe ki te whai mai i ahau?
37 for thou hast felt all my vessels: what hast thou found of all the vessels of thy house? set here before my brethren, and thy brethren, and they decide between us both.
Kua whawhakia nei e koe aku mea katoa, he aha te mea i kitea e koe o nga mea katoa o tou whare? Homai ki konei ki te aroaro o oku teina, o ou teina, ma ratou e whakariterite ta taua whakawa.
38 'These twenty years I [am] with thee: thy ewes and thy she-goats have not miscarried, and the rams of thy flock I have not eaten;
Ka rua tekau enei tau oku ki a koe; kihai i whanau whakatahe au hipi, au koati, kihai ano i kainga e ahau nga hipi toa o tau kahui.
39 the torn I have not brought in unto thee — I, I repay it — from my hand thou dost seek it; I have been deceived by day, and I have been deceived by night;
Ko te mea i haea e nga kirehe mohoao kihai i kawea e ahau ki a koe; naku ano tena i whakautu; i rapu utu ano koe mo tena i toku ringa, ahakoa mo te mea i tahaetia i te awatea, mo te mea ranei i tahaetia i te po.
40 I have been [thus]: in the day consumed me hath drought, and frost by night, and wander doth my sleep from mine eyes.
Ko taku hanga tena; i te awatea i pau ahau i te matewai, i te po i te huka; a turere ana te moe i oku kanohi.
41 'This [is] to me twenty years in thy house: I have served thee fourteen years for thy two daughters, and six years for thy flock; and thou changest my hire ten times;
Ka rua tekau enei tau oku ki tou whare; kotahi tekau ma wha nga tau i mahi ai ahau ki a koe mo au tamahine tokorua, e ono tau hoki mo au hipi: a ka tekau au whakaputanga ketanga i nga utu moku.
42 unless the God of my father, the God of Abraham, and the Fear of Isaac, had been for me, surely now empty thou hadst sent me away; mine affliction and the labour of my hands hath God seen, and reproveth yesternight.'
Me i kahore i tata mai ki ahau te Atua o toku papa, te Atua o Aperahama, te Wehi hoki o Ihaka, ina kua tonoa kautia mai ahau e koe. I kite mai te Atua i toku tukinotanga, i te mahi hoki a oku ringa, i riria ai koe e ia inapo.
43 And Laban answereth and saith unto Jacob, 'The daughters [are] my daughters, and the sons my sons, and the flock my flock, and all that thou art seeing [is] mine; and to my daughters — what do I to these to-day, or to their sons whom they have born?
Na ko te whakahokinga a Rapana, ko te meatanga ki a Hakopa, He tamahine naku enei tamahine, he tamariki ano naku enei tamariki, he kahui ano hoki naku enei kahui, a ko nga mea katoa e kite nei koe, naku: a he aha taku e mea ai akuanei ki enei ta mahine aku, ki a raua tamariki ranei i whanau nei i a raua?
44 and now, come, let us make a covenant, I and thou, and it hath been for a witness between me and thee.'
Na, tena, haere mai, kia whakarite kawenata taua, a koe me ahau; a ka waiho hei kaiwhakaatu ki a taua.
45 And Jacob taketh a stone, and lifteth it up [for] a standing pillar;
Na ka tikina tetahi kohatu e Hakopa, a whakaarahia ake e ia hei pou.
46 and Jacob saith to his brethren, 'Gather stones,' and they take stones, and make a heap; and they eat there on the heap;
A ka mea a Hakopa ki ona teina, Kohia mai he kohatu; na ka tikina atu e ratou etahi kohatu, ka hanga he puranga: a kai ana ratou ki reira ki runga ki te puranga.
47 and Laban calleth it Jegar-Sahadutha; and Jacob hath called it Galeed.
A huaina iho taua mea e Rapana ko Iekarahaharuta: na Hakopa ia i hua ko Kareere.
48 And Laban saith, 'This heap [is] witness between me and thee to-day;' therefore hath he called its name Galeed;
Na ka mea a Rapana, Hei kaiwhakaatu tenei puranga i tenei ra ki a taua. Na reira i huaina ai tona ingoa ko Kareere;
49 Mizpah also, for he said, 'Jehovah doth watch between me and thee, for we are hidden one from another;
Ko Mihipa hoki; i mea hoki ia, Ma Ihowa e titiro mai ki a taua, ina matara atu taua i a taua.
50 if thou afflict my daughters, or take wives beside my daughters — there is no man with us — see, God [is] witness between me and thee.'
Ki te tukino koe i aku tamahine, ki te tango ranei i etahi wahine ke atu i aku tamahine, kahore he tangata i a taua; kia mahara, hei kaititiro te Atua ki ahau, ki a koe.
51 And Laban saith to Jacob, 'Lo, this heap, and lo, the standing pillar which I have cast between me and thee;
I mea ano a Rapana ki a Hakopa, Titiro ki tenei puranga, a titiro hoki ki tenei pou i waiho iho nei e ahau i waenganui i a taua;
52 this heap [is] witness, and the standing pillar [is] witness, that I do not pass over this heap unto thee, and that thou dost not pass over this heap and this standing pillar unto me — for evil;
Hei kaiwhakaatu tenei puranga, hei kaiwhakaatu ano hoki tenei pou, moku kei haere ki tua atu o tenei puranga ki a koe, mou hoki kei haere ake ki ahau ki tua o tenei puranga, o tenei pou hoki, mo te kino.
53 the God of Abraham and the God of Nahor, doth judge between us — the God of their father,' and Jacob sweareth by the Fear of his father Isaac.
Ma te Atua o Aperahama, ma te Atua hoki o Nahora, ma te Atua o to raua papa, e whakarite ta taua whakawa. Na ka oatitia e Hakopa te Wehi o tona papa, o Ihaka.
54 And Jacob sacrificeth a sacrifice in the mount, and calleth to his brethren to eat bread, and they eat bread, and lodge in the mount;
Na patua ana e Hakopa he patunga tapu ki runga ki te maunga, a karangatia ana e ia ona teina ki te kai taro: na ka kai taro ratou, a ka moe ki te maunga.
55 and Laban riseth early in the morning, and kisseth his sons and his daughters, and blesseth them; and Laban goeth on, and turneth back to his place.
A ka maranga wawe a Rapana i te ata, ka kihi i ana tama, i ana tamahine, ka manaaki hoki i a ratou: na haere ana a Rapana, hoki ana ki tona wahi.
