Genesis 31

1 Ita, nangngeg ni Jacob dagiti sasao dagiti annak a lallaki ni Laban a kinunada, “Innala ni Jacob dagiti amin a kukua ti Amatayo, ken kadagiti sanikua ti amatayo ti nagappuan amin dagitoy a kinabaknangna.

But after that he heard the words of the sons of Laban, saying: Jacob hath taken away all that was our father’s, and being enriched by his substance is become great:

2 Nakita ni Jacob ti langa ti rupa ni Laban. Nakitana a nagbaliwen ti panakilangen-langenna kenkuana.

And perceiving also that Laban’s countenance was not towards him as yesterday and the other day,

3 Ket kinuna ni Yahweh kenni Jacob, “Agsublika iti daga dagiti ammam ken kadagiti kakabagiam, ket addaakto kenka.”

Especially the Lord saying to him: Return into the land of thy fathers, and to thy kindred, and I will be with thee.

4 Nangibaon ni Jacob iti napan nangayab kada Raquel ken Lea tapno mapanda iti kataltalonan, iti ayan dagiti arbanna

He sent, and called Rachel and Lia into the field, where he fed the flocks,

5 ket kinunana kadakuada, “Nakitak a nagbaliwen ti panakilangen-langen ti amayo kaniak, ngem ti Dios ti amak ket kanayon nga adda kaniak.

And said to them: I see your father’s countenance is not towards me as yesterday and the other day: but the God of my father hath been with me.

6 Ammoyo a nagserbiak iti amayo iti amin a pigsak.

And you know that I have served your father to the uttermost of my power.

7 Inallilawnak ti amayo ken binaliwanna ti tangdanko iti naminsangapulo a daras, ngem saan nga impalubos ti Dios a dangrannak.

Yea, your father also hath overreached me, and hath changed my wages ten times: and yet God hath not suffered him to hurt me.

8 No ibagana a, 'Dagiti burik nga ayup ti tangdanmo', aganak met iti burik nga urbon ti amin nga arban. Ket no ibagana, 'Dagiti garit nga ayup ti tangdanmo', aganak met iti garit nga urbon ti amin nga arban.

If at any time he said: The speckled shall be thy wages: all the sheep brought forth speckled: but when he said on the contrary: Thou shalt take all the white ones for thy wages: all the flocks brought forth white ones.

9 Iti kastoy a wagas, innala ti Dios dagiti taraken ti amayo ket intedna dagitoy kaniak.

And God hath taken your father’s substance, and given it to me.

10 Iti naminsan, idi panawen iti panagmamaya, nakitak iti tagtagainep dagiti kalakian a kalding a mangmaymaya iti arban. Dagiti kalakian a kalding ket garit, burik ken labang.

For after that time came of the ewes conceiving, I lifted up my eyes, and saw in my sleep that the males which leaped upon the females were of divers colours, and spotted, and speckled.

11 Imbaga ti anghel ti Dios kaniak iti tagtagainep, 'Jacob'. Kinunak, 'Adtoyak.'

And the angel of God said to me in my sleep: Jacob? And I answered: Here I am.

12 Kinunana, 'Kumitaka iti ngato ket kitaem dagiti amin a kalakian a kalding a mangmaymaya iti arban. Dagitoy ket garit, burik ken labang, ta nakitak ti amin nga ar-aramiden ni Laban kenka.

And he said: Lift up thy eyes, and see that all the males leaping upon the females, are of divers colours, spotted, and speckled. For I have seen all that Laban hath done to thee.

13 Siak ti Dios ti Bethel, a nangpulutam iti maysa nga adigi, a nangsapataam kaniak iti maysa a kari. Ita, panawam daytoy a daga ket agsublika iti daga a nakaiyanakam.'”

I am the God of Bethel, where thou didst anoint the stone, and make a vow to me. Now therefore arise, and go out of this land, and return into thy native country.

14 Simmungbat da Raquel ken Lea a kinunada kenkuana, “Adda kadi met bingay wenno tawid a para kadakami iti balay ti amami?

And Rachel and Lia answered: Have we any thing left among the goods and inheritance of our father’s house?

15 Saan aya a kasla gangannaet iti panangtrato ti amami kadakami? Ta inlakonakami ket inibusna amin a kuartami.

Hath he not counted us as strangers and sold us, and eaten up the price of us?

16 Ta amin a kinabaknang nga innala ti Dios manipud iti amami ket kukuamin ita ken dagiti annakmi. Ita ngarud, aniaman nga ibaga ti Dios kenka, aramidem.”

But God hath taken our father’s riches, and delivered them to us, and to our children: wherefore do all that God hath commanded thee.

17 Ket timmakder ni Jacob ken inkabilna dagiti annakna a lallaki ken assawana kadagiti kamelio.

Then Jacob rose up, and having set his children and wives upon camels, went his way.

18 Rinugianna nga abugen dagiti amin a tarakenna ken amin a sanikuana a naalana, dagiti tarakenna a nagun-odna idiay Paddan Aram. Rinugianna ti mapan iti ayan ti amana a ni Isaac, iti daga ti Canaan.

And he took all his substance, and flocks, and whatsoever he had gotten in Mesopotamia, and went forward to Isaac his father to the land of Chanaan.

19 Ita, pimmanaw ni Laban tapno mapanna pukisan dagiti karnerona, ket tinakaw ni Raquel dagiti didiosen nga adda iti balay ti amana.

At that time Laban was gone to shear his sheep, and Rachel stole away her father’s idols.

20 Sinikapan met ni Jacob ni Laban nga Arameo iti saanna a panangibaga kenkuana a pumanawen isuna.

And Jacob would not confess to his father in law that he was flying away.

21 Nagtalaw ngarud a kaduana dagiti amin a sanikuana ket nagdardaras a bimmallasiw iti Karayan, ken nagturong iti katurturodan a pagilian ti Galaad.

And when he was gone, together with all that belonged to him, and having passed the river, was going on towards mount Galaad,

22 Iti maikatlo nga aldaw, naibaga kenni Laban a nagtalawen ni Jacob.

It was told Laban on the third day that Jacob fled.

23 Isu nga inkuyogna dagiti amin a kakabagianna ket kinamatda ni Jacob iti pito nga aldaw a panagdaliasat. Nakamakamda isuna iti katurturodan ti Gilead.

And he took his brethren with him, and pursued after him seven days; and overtook him in the mount of Galaad.

24 Ita, immay ti Dios kenni Laban nga Arameo iti maysa a tagtagainep iti maysa a rabii ket kinunana kenkuana, “Agannadka a makisarita kenni Jacob iti nasayaat man wenno dakes.”

And he saw in a dream God saying to him: Take heed thou speak not any thing harshly against Jacob.

25 Nakamakam ni Laban ni Jacob. Ita, nangipatakder ni Jacob iti toldana iti katurturodan a pagilian. Nagkampo met laeng da Laban ken dagiti kakabaggianna iti katurturodan a pagilian ti Galaad.

Now Jacob had pitched his tent in the mountain: and when he with his brethren had overtaken him, he pitched his tent in the same mount of Galaad.

26 Kinuna ni Laban kenni Jacob, “Ania daytoy nga inaramid mo, ta inallilawnak ken innalam dagiti annakko a babbai a kasla da la balud iti gubat?

And he said to Jacob: Why hast thou done thus, to carry away, without my knowledge, my daughters, as captives taken with the sword.

27 Apay a pimmanawka a sililimed ken sinikapannak ken saanmo nga imbaga kaniak. Pinarubuatankayo koma nga addaan iti panagrambak ken kankanta, kadagiti tamborin ken kadagiti arpa.

Why wouldst thou run away privately and not acquaint me, that I might have brought thee on the way with joy, and with songs, and with timbrels, and with harps?

28 Saanmo nga intulok nga agkak iti panagpakada dagiti appok ken annakko. Ita, nakaaramidka iti minamaag.

Thou hast not suffered me to kiss my sons and daughters: thou hast done foolishly: and now, indeed,

29 Addaanak iti kabaelan a mangdangran kenka, ngem nagsao kaniak ti Dios ti amam idi rabii a kinunana, 'Aggannadka a makisarita kenni Jacob iti nasaayaat man wenno saan'.

It is in my power to return thee evil: but the God of your father said to me yesterday: Take heed thou speak not any thing harshly against Jacob.

30 Ket ita, pimmanawka gapu ta mailiwka unay iti balay ti amam. Ngem apay a tinakawmo dagiti diosko?”

Suppose thou didst desire to go to thy friends, and hadst a longing after thy father’s house: why hast thou stolen away my gods?

31 Simmungbat ni Jacob a kinunana kenni Laban, “Gapu ta mabutengak ken impagarupko nga amangan no pilitem nga alaen dagiti annakmo manipud kaniak, pimmanawak a sililimed.

Jacob answered: That I departed unknown to thee, it was for fear lest thou wouldst take away thy daughters by force.

32 Siasinoman a nangtakaw kadagiti didiosem ket saanto nga agtuloy nga agbiag. Iti imatang dagiti kakabaggianta, lasinem ti aniaman nga adda kaniak a kukuam ket alaem.” Ta saan nga ammo ni Jacob a ni Raquel ti nangtakaw kadagitoy.

But whereas thou chargest me with theft: with whomsoever thou shalt find thy gods, let him be slain before our brethren. Search, and if thou find any of thy things with me, take them away. Now when he said this, he knew not that Rachel had stolen the idols.

33 Napan ni Laban iti ayan ti tolda ni Jacob, iti tolda ni Lea ken iti tolda dagiti dua nga adipen a babbai, ngem saanna a nabirukan dagitoy. Rimuar isuna iti tolda ni Lea ket simrek iti tolda ni Raquel.

So Laban went into the tent of Jacob, and of Lia, and of both the handmaids, and found them not. And when he was entered into Rachel’s tent,

34 Ita, innala ni Raquel dagiti didiosen iti balay ti amana, inkabilna iti silya ti kamelyo ket tinugawanna daytoy. Sinukimat ni Laban ti uneg ti sibubukel a tolda, ngem saanna a nasarakan dagitoy.

She in haste hid the idols under the camel’s furniture, and sat upon them: and when he had searched all the tent, and found nothing,

35 Kinuna ni Raquel iti amana, “Apok, saanka koma a makaunget no saanak a makatakder iti sangngoanam, madama ngamin ti binulanko. Nagsukimat ngarud ni Laban ngem saanna a nasarakan dagiti didiosen iti balayna.

She said: Let not my lord be angry that I cannot rise up before thee, because it has now happened to me, according to the custom of women, So his careful search was in vain.

36 Nakaunget ni Jacob ket nakisinnupiat isuna kenni Laban. Kinunana kenkuana, “Ania ti naglabsingak? Ania ti nakabasolak, ta sipupungtotka a nangkamat kaniak?

And Jacob being angry, said in a chiding manner: For what fault of mine, and for what offence on my part hast thou so hotly pursued me,

37 Ta sinukitmatmo amin a sanikuak. Ania ti nasarakam kadagiti amin a sanikua ti bumalaymo? Ikabilmo ida ditoy sangngoanan dagiti kakabagianta, tapno isuda iti mangukom kadata a dua.

And searched all my household stuff? What hast thou found of all the substance of thy house? lay it here before my brethren, and thy brethren, and let them judge between me and thee.

38 Addaak kenka iti duapulo a tawen. Awan ti naalisan kadagiti kaba-ian a karnero ken kaldingmo, ken saanak a nangan iti aniaman a kalakian a karnero manipud kadagiti arbanmo.

Have I therefore been with thee twenty years? thy ewes and goats were not barren, the rams of thy flocks I did not eat:

39 Aniaman a rinangrangkay dagiti atap nga ayup ket saanko nga inyeg kenka. Ngem ketdi, inakok ti pannakapukawna dayta. Kankanayonmo nga ipabayad kaniak ti tunggal ayup a mapukpukaw, natakaw man iti aldaw wenno iti rabii.

Neither did I show thee that which the beast had torn, I made good all the damage: whatsoever was lost by theft, thou didst exact it of me:

40 Addaak sadiay; main-initan iti aldaw, ken malamlammiisan iti rabii; ket napnapanak nga awan turogko.

Day and night was I parched with heat, and with frost, and sleep departed from my eyes.

41 Iti naglabas a duapulo a tawen, addaak iti balay mo. Nagtrabahoak kenka iti sangapulo ket uppat a tawen para kadagiti dua nga annakmo ken innem a tawen para iti arbanmo. Binaliwam ti tangdanko iti namin sangapulo a daras.

And in this manner have I served thee in thy house twenty years, fourteen for thy daughters, and six for thy flocks: thou hast changed also my wages ten times.

42 No awan kaniak ti Dios ti amak, ti Dios ni Abraham, ken ti pagbutbutngan ni Isaac, awan duadua nga ita ket pinapanawnak nga ima-ima. Nakita ti Dios ti pannakaidadanesko ken ti panagrigatko a nagtrabtrabaho, isu a tinubngarnaka idi rabii.”

Unless the God of my father Abraham, and the fear of Isaac had stood by me, peradventure now thou hadst sent me away naked: God beheld my affliction and the labour of my hands, and rebuked thee yesterday.

43 Simmungbat ni Laban kenni Jacob a kinunana, “Dagiti annak a babbai ket putotko, ken dagiti appo ket appokok, ken dagiti arban ket arbanko. Amin a makitkitam ket kukuak. Ngem ania ngay ti maaramidak ita kadagitoy nga annakko a babbai, wenno kadagiti ubbing nga inyanakda?

Laban answered him: The daughters are mine and the children, and thy flocks, and all things that thou seest are mine: what can I do to my children, and grandchildren?

44 Ita ngarud, agaramidta iti katulagan, data a dua, ket agserbi koma a saksi iti nagbaetanta.”

Come therefore, let us enter into a league: that it may be for a testimony between me and thee.

45 Nangala ngarud ni Jacob iti bato ken impatakderna a kasla adigi.

And Jacob took a stone, and set it up for a title:

46 Kinuna ni Jacob kadagiti kakabagianna, “Agurnongkayo iti bato.” Nagalada garud kadagiti batbato ket nagaramidda iti bunton. Kalpasanna, nanganda iti abay iti bunton.

And he said to his brethren: Bring hither stones. And they gathering stones together, made a heap, and they ate upon it.

47 Inawagan ni Laban daytoy iti Jegar Saha Dutha, ngem inawagan ni Jacob daytoy iti Galeed.

And Laban called it The witness heap: and Jacob, The hillock of testimony: each of them according to the propriety of his language.

48 Kinuna ni Laban, “Daytoy a bunton ket saksi iti nagbaetanta ita nga aldaw.” Ngarud ti naganna ket naawagan iti Galeed.

And Laban said: This heap shall be a witness between me and thee this day, and therefore the name thereof was called Galaad, that is, The witness heap.

49 Naawagan met laeng daytoy a Mizpah, gapu ta kinuna ni Laban, “Ni Yahweh koma ti mangbantay kadata, inton saanta a makitkita ti maysa ken maysa.

The Lord behold and judge between us when we shall be gone one from the other.

50 No tratoem iti saan a nasayaat dagiti putotko a babbai, wenno no mangala ka iti sabali nga asawa malaksid kadagiti putotko, uray no awan sabali a kaduata, kitaem, ti Dios ti saksi iti nagbaetanta.”

If thou afflict my daughters, and if thou bring in other wives over them: none is witness of our speech but God, who is present and beholdeth.

51 Kinuna ni Laban kenni Jacob, “Kitaem daytoy a bunton, ken kitaem ti adigi nga impatakderko iti nagbaetanta.

And he said again to Jacob: Behold, this heap, and the stone which I have set up between me and thee,

52 Daytoy a bunton ket saksi, ken ti adigi ket saksi a saanakto a lumabes kenka iti daytoy a bunton ken saanka a lumabes kaniak iti daytoy a bunton ken daytoy nga adigi, tapno agaramid iti pakadangran.

Shall be a witness: this heap, I say, and the stone, be they for a testimony, if either I shall pass beyond it going towards thee, or thou shalt pass beyond it, thinking harm to me.

53 Ti Dios koma ni Abraham, ken ti Dios ni Nahor, ti Dios dagiti ama da, ti mangukom kadata. Nagsapata ni Jacob iti nagan ti Dios, kenkuana a pagbutbutngan ti amana a ni Isaac.

The God of Abraham, and the God of Nachor, the God of their father, judge between us. And Jacob swore by the fear of his father Isaac.

54 Nangidaton ni Jacob iti daton iti dayta a bantay ket inayabanna dagiti kakabagianna a mangan. Nanganda ken pinalabasda ti rabii iti bantay.

And after he had offered sacrifices in the mountain, he called his brethren to eat bread. And when they had eaten, they lodged there:

55 Nariing ni Laban a nasapa iti kabigatanna, inagkanna dagiti appokona ken dagiti putotna a babbai ket binendisionanna ida. Kalpasanna, pimmanaw ni Laban ket nagsubli iti pagtaenganna.

But Laban arose in the night, and kissed his sons, and daughters, and blessed them: and returned to his place.
