< Genesis 31 >
1 Jacob el lohngak lah wen natul Laban elos fahk mu, “Jacob el eisla ma nukewa lun papa tumasr uh. Kasrup lal uh ma na ke ma lun papa tumasr uh.”
UJakhobe wezwa ukuthi amadodana kaLabhani ayesithi, “UJakhobe usethethe konke ubaba ayelakho njalo usezuze yonke inotho ebingekababa.”
2 Jacob el akilenak pac lah Laban el tia sifilpa kulang oana meet ah.
Njalo uJakhobe wananzelela ukuthi uLabhani wayengasamphathi njengakuqala.
3 Na LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel, “Folokla nu yen sin papa tomom ac nu yurin sou lom. Nga ac fah wi kom.”
UThixo wasesithi kuJakhobe, “Buyela elizweni laboyihlo lasezihlotsheni zakho, mina ngizakuba lawe.”
4 Ke ma inge Jacob el sapla nu sel Rachel ac Leah, eltal in tuku osun nu sel yen ma un kosro natul uh muta we.
Ngakho uJakhobe wasethumela ilizwi kuRasheli loLeya ukuthi beze egangeni lapho imihlambi yakhe eyayikhona.
5 El fahk nu seltal, “Nga liye tuh papa tomomtal ah tiana sifil kulang nu sik oana meet ah. Tusruktu, God lun papa tumuk El nuna wiyu na.
Wathi kubo, “Sengibona ukuthi uyihlo kasangiphathi njengakuqala, kodwa uNkulunkulu kababa ube lami.
6 Komtal kewa etu na lah nga orekma nu sin papa tomomtal ah ke kuiyuk nufon.
Liyakwazi ukuthi ngamsebenzela uyihlo ngamandla ami wonke,
7 Nwe ouinge, a el kutasrik na nu sik ac ekulla molin orekma luk uh pacl singoul. Tusruktu God El tiana lela elan oru kutena mwe ongoiya nu sik.
kodwa uyihlo ungidlelezele ngokuguqula umholo wami okwezikhathi ezilitshumi. Kodwa uNkulunkulu kamvumelanga ukuthi angilimaze.
8 Pacl nukewa Laban el fin fahk, ‘Nani tuhntun ingan pa ac moli orekma lom,’ na kosro nukewa ac oswe natu tuhntun. Ac el fin fahk, ‘Nani kwarmok uh pa ac moli orekma lom,’ na u in kosro nukewa ac oswe natu kwarmok.
Kwakusithi angathi, ‘Ezilamabalabala ngezakho, ezomholo,’ imihlambi yonke izale ezimabalabala; kuthi angathi, ‘Ezingamaqamule zizakuba ngumholo wakho,’ yonke imihlambi izale amazinyane angamaqamule.
9 God El eisla u in kosro liki papa tomomtal ac use nutik.”
Ngaleyondlela uNkulunkulu usethethe imihlambi kayihlo wayipha mina.
10 “Ke pacl in orek fahko lun un kosro uh nga tuh mwemei ac liye lah nani mukul ma orek fahko uh ma na kwarmok ac tuhntun.
Ngesikhathi sokuxotshwa lokumitha kwemihlambi, ngaba lephupho lapho okwathi ngikhangela ngabona ukuthi impongo ezazixotsha umhlambi zazingamaqamule, kumbe zingamafahlafahla kumbe zilamabala.
11 Na lipufan lun God el kaskas nu sik in mweme sac ac fahk, ‘Jacob!’ Ac nga fahk, ‘Nga.’
Ingilosi kaNkulunkulu yathi kimi kulelophupho, ‘Jakhobe.’ Ngasabela ngathi, ‘Ngilapha.’
12 Ac el fahk, ‘Liye, nani mukul nukewa ma orek fahko inge ma kwarmok ac tuhntun. Nga oru in ouinge mweyen nga liye ma nukewa ma Laban el oru nu sum.
Yathi, ‘Khangela ukuthi zonke impongo ezixotsha umhlambi ngezingamaqamule, ngezingamafahlafahla kumbe ngezilamabala, ngoba ngikubonile konke lokho uLabhani abekwenza kuwe.
13 Nga pa God se su tuh sikwot nu sum in acn Bethel, yen se ma kom tuh ukuiya oil in olive nu fin eot se ac kisakin tuh in sie mwe esmakin, ac kom tuh orala sie wuleang nu sik we. Akola kom in folokla nu in facl se ma kom isusla we.’”
NginguNkulunkulu waseBhetheli, lapho owagcoba khona insika njalo lapho owenza khona isifungo kimi. Suka kulelilizwe khona manje ubuyele elizweni lakini.’”
14 Rachel ac Leah topkol Jacob ac fahk, “Wangin ma lula kut ac usrui sin papa tumasr.
URasheli loLeya baphendula bathi, “Sivele siseselesabelo selifa likababa na?
15 El orekut oana mwetsac uh. El kukakinkutla, ac inge el sisla nufon mani ma moulyang nu sel kacsr ah.
Kasinjengabezizweni kuye na? Kakusikho kodwa ukuthi walobolisa ngathi, kodwa sowakusebenzisa konke esalotsholwa ngakho.
16 Mwe kasrup nukewa ma God El eisla liki papa tumasr ah inge, ma lasr ac tulik natusr. Oru na ma God El fahk kom in oru an.”
Ngempela yonke inotho uNkulunkulu ayemuka ubaba ngeyethu labantwabethu. Ngakho yenza loba yini uNkulunkulu akutshele yona.”
17 Ouinge Jacob el tuyak, ac srakang tulik natul ac mutan kial nu fin camel uh,
UJakhobe wasegadisa abantwabakhe labomkakhe emakameleni,
18 ac pwanla kosro natul nukewa, ac ma lal nukewa ma el eis ke orekma lal, ac kosro natul ma el eis in acn Mesopotamia, na el mukuiyak in som nu yorol Isaac, papa tumal, in facl Canaan.
waziqhuba zonke izifuyo zakhe zahamba phambili, kanye lempahla zonke ayezizuzile ePhadani Aramu, esebuyela kuyise u-Isaka elizweni laseKhenani.
19 Laban el som in kalla sheep natul, ac ke pacl se el wangin inge, Rachel el usla ma sruloala srisrik ma oan in lohm sin papa tumal ah.
Kwathi uLabhani ehambile eyogunda izimvu zakhe, uRasheli weba izithombe zikayise.
20 Jacob el sulallal nu sel Laban ac tia akkalemye nu sel lah el ac som lukel.
Phezu kwalokho uJakhobe wakhohlisa uLabhani umʼAramu ngokungamtsheli ukuthi yena wayesebaleka.
21 El us ma nukewa lal ac sulaklak na mukuiyak som. El tupalla Infacl Euphrates ac tulanya infulan eol in acn Gilead.
Ngakho wabaleka lakho konke okwakungokwakhe, wachapha umfula iYufrathe, waqonda elizweni lamaqaqa eleGiliyadi.
22 Len tolu toko, fwackyang nu sel Laban lah Jacob el kaingla.
Ngosuku lwesithathu uLabhani watshelwa ukuthi uJakhobe wayesebalekile.
23 Laban el us mwet lal welul ac ukwal Jacob ke len itkosr, nwe ke el sonol infulan eol in Gilead.
Wathatha izihlobo zakhe bangena emzileni kaJakhobe okwensuku eziyisikhombisa baze bayambamba elizweni lamaqaqa eleGiliyadi.
24 God El sikyang nu sel Laban in sie mweme ke fong sac ac fahk nu sel, “Taran na kom in tia fahk kutena kas in aksangeng nu sel Jacob.”
UNkulunkulu weza kuLabhani umʼAramu ephutsheni ebusuku wathi kuye, “Unanzelele ukuthi ungaze watsho lutho kuJakhobe, loba lungoluhle kumbe olubi.”
25 Laban el ukwal Jacob nwe sonol infulan eol in Gilead, yen Jacob el aktuktuk we. Laban ac mwet lal elos oayapa aktuktuk we.
UJakhobe wayemise ithente lakhe elizweni lamaqaqa eGiliyadi eficwa khona nguLabhani, uLabhani laye lezihlobo zakhe bakha izihonqo khonapho.
26 Laban el fahk nu sel Jacob, “Efu ku kom sulallal nu sik ac usla acn nutik ingan in oana luman mutan ma sruhu ke mweun?
Ngakho uLabhani wasesithi kuJakhobe, “Wenzeni manje? Ungikhohlisile, njalo uthumbe amadodakazi ami njengabathunjiweyo empini.
27 Efu kom ku kutasrik nu sik ac mahsrikme na tia fahk? Kom funu fahk, nga lukun filikomla ke engan lulap, ac on alullul wi pusren mwe srital ac harp.
Kungani ubalekele ngasese wangikhohlisa na? Kungani ungangazisanga ukuze ngikuvalelise ngentokozo langokutshaya izigubhu lamachacho?
28 Kom tia pacna lela nga in wilkas nu sin acn nutik, ku ngokya mutun tulik natultal inge. Ouiya na koluk se pa kom oru ingan!
Kawuzange ume ukuthi ngange abazukulu bami lamadodakazi ami ngibavalelise. Wenze into eyibuthutha.
29 Oasr ku luk in kai kom, tusruktu God lun papa tomom El kaskas nu sik fong, ac fahk mu ngan taran na nga in tia fahk kutena kas in aksangeng nu sum.
Ngilamandla okukulimaza; kodwa ngobusuku obudluleyo uNkulunkulu kayihlo uthe kimi, ‘Unanzelele ungaze watsho lutho kuJakhobe, loba ngoluhle kumbe ngolubi.’
30 Nga etu lah kom tuyak tuku mweyen kom kena tari folok nu yen sum, a efu kom ku usla ma sruloala srisrik ma oan in lohm sik ah?”
Manje ususukile ngoba ubulangazelela ukubuyela emzini kayihlo. Kodwa kungani webe izithombe zami na?”
31 Jacob el topuk, “Nga tuh sangeng, mweyen nga nunku mu kom ac eisla acn nutum inge likiyu.
UJakhobe wamphendula uLabhani wathi, “Bengisesaba ukuthi uzangemuka amadodakazi akho ngamandla.
32 Tusruktu kom fin konauk lah god lom an oasr sin siena sin mwet inge, mwet sacn ac fah anwuki. Inge, ye mutun mwet lasr kewa, fahsru suk. Fin oasr kutena ma lom kom konauk yorosr, kom us.” Jacob el tiana etu lah Rachel el pisrala god lal Laban.
Kodwa nxa ufumana loba ngubani olezithombe zakho, kayikuphila. Ake ubone, lezihlobo zakho zikhona, ingabe kulolutho lwakho yini lapha kimi; nxa lukhona, luthathe.” UJakhobe wayengazi ukuthi uRasheli wayezebile izithombe.
33 Laban el som ac iluhs lohm nuknuk sel Jacob. Toko el som nu in lohm nuknuk sel Leah, ac lohm nuknuk sin mutan kulansap luo, tusruktu el tiana konauk god lal ah. Na el som nu in lohm nuknuk sel Rachel.
Ngakho uLabhani wangena ethenteni likaJakhobe lethenteni likaLeya lethenteni lezincekukazi zombili, kodwa kafumananga lutho. Ephuma ethenteni likaLeya, wangena ethenteni likaRasheli.
34 Rachel pa srukak ma sruloala ma oan in lohm nuknuk sel Laban, ac sang nu luin pak se ma ac oan fin camel uh, ac muta fac. Laban el iluhs lohm nuknuk sac nufon, tusruk el tiana konauk ma sruloala uh.
URasheli wayethethe izithombe lezo, wazifihla phakathi kwesihlalo sekamela lakhe, wasehlala phezu kwazo. ULabhani wabhudula kukho konke okwakusethenteni, katholanga lutho.
35 Rachel el fahk nu sin papa tumal, “Nimet kom kasrkusrak sik, papa. Nga tia ku in tuyak, mweyen ingena nga mas mutan.” Laban el sukna ma sruloala lal ah tuh el tiana konauk.
URasheli wathi kuyise, “Ungazondi nkosi yami ukuthi kungani ngingakusukumeli, kungenxa yokuba ngisesikhathini.” Ngakho wabhudula, kodwa akaze azifumana izithombe zangekhaya.
36 Na Jacob el kasrkusrakak ac siyuk sel Laban, “Mea nga oru koluk? Ma sap su nga kunausla ku kom ukweyume nwe inse?
UJakhobe wazonda kubi wamthwalisa nzima uLabhani. Wambuza wathi, “Icala lami ngelani? Ngenze sono bani ukuze ungizingele kanje?
37 Inge ke kom iluhsya ma luk nukewa uh, mea kom konauk mu ma lom oasr yorosr? Srakma filiya inse inge, mwet lasr uh kewa in tukeni ngetani liye, ac fahk lah su pwaye se.
Njengoba usuziguduzile zonke impahla zami, kuyini osukufumene okungokomuzi wakho na? Kubeke khonapha phambi kwezihlobo zakho lezami batsho okuyikho phakathi kwethu sobabili.
38 Nga muta yurum yac longoulla inge, ac sheep nutum ac nani nutum uh tia tui in isus fahko, ac nga tiana kangla sokofanna sheep mukul ke u in kosro nutum uh.
Sengibe lawe okweminyaka engamatshumi amabili. Izimvu zakho lembuzi zakho kazizange ziphunze, njalo kangizange ngizihlabele inqama emihlambini yakho.

Kangizange ngizokutshengisa izifuyo ezidatshulwe yizilo; yimi engathwala lokho kulahlekelwa ngazihlawula. Njalo wafuna inhlawulo yalezo ezazebiwe emini loba ebusuku.
40 Pacl puspis nga keok ke fulen len ac ohu in fong. Nga tia ku in motul.
Impilo yami yayinje: ukutshisa kwakungibhaxabula emini, ebusuku umqando ungihaqaze, ubuthongo babaleka emehlweni ami.

Kwakunjalo okweminyaka engamatshumi amabili ngisemzini wakho. Ngakusebenzela okweminyaka elitshumi lane ngisebenzela amadodakazi akho womabili njalo okweminyaka eyisithupha ngisebenzela imihlambi yakho, njalo wena waguqula inhlawulo yami okwezikhathi ezilitshumi.
42 God lal Abraham ac God lal Isaac, papa tumuk, funu tia wiyu, kom lukun supweyula pisinpo. Tusruktu God El liyena elya luk ac orekma ma nga orala, ac El kai kom kac fong.”
Aluba uNkulunkulu kababa, uNkulunkulu ka-Abhrahama langokwesaba kuka-Isaka, ubengelami, ubuzangixotsha nje ngingaphathanga lutho. Kodwa uNkulunkulu ububonile ubunzima bami lokusebenza nzima kwezandla zami, yikho ekukhuzile izolo ebusuku.”
43 Laban el topkol Jacob ac fahk, “Mutan luo inge ma nutik. Ma pac nutik pa tulik natultal inge, ac un kosro inge ma pac nutik. Ma nukewa kom liye inge ma luk. Tusruktu ke wangin ma nga ku in oru in folokonma acn luo nutik ac tulik natultal inge,
ULabhani wamphendula uJakhobe wathi, “Abesifazane ngamadodakazi ami, abantwana ngabantwabami, lemihlambi yimihlambi yami. Kodwa kuyini engingakwenza lamuhla ngala amadodakazi ami, kumbe ngabantwana ababazeleyo na?

45 Ouinge Jacob el eis eot lulap se ac tulokunak tuh in sie mwe esmakin.
Ngakho uJakhobe wasethatha ilitshe walimisa laba yinsika.
46 El fahk nu sin mwet lal in orani kutu eot ac elosak. Na elos mongoi sisken yol in eot sac.
Wasesithi ezihlotsheni zakhe, “Buthelelani amatshe.” Bawathatha amatshe aba yinqwaba, basebedlela khonapho eceleni kwenqwaba.
47 Laban el sang inen yol in eot se inge Jegar Sahadutha, a Jacob el pangon Galeed.
ULabhani wayibiza ngokuthi yiJegari Sahadutha, uJakhobe yena wathi yiGaledi.
48 Laban el fahk nu sel Jacob, “Yol in eot se inge ac fah mwe akesmakinye kut kewa.” Pa pwanang inen acn sac pangpang Galeed.
ULabhani wathi, “Inqwaba le ingufakazi phakathi kwami lawe lamuhla.” Yikho yabizwa ngokuthi yiGaledi.
49 Laban el oayapa fahk, “Lela LEUM GOD Elan tawikuti ke kut fahsrelik sie sin sie.” Ke ma inge itukyang pac inen acn sac Mizpah.
Yabizwa njalo ngokuthi yiMizipha, ngoba wathi, “Sengathi uThixo angalinda phakathi kwakho lami nxa sikhatshana omunye komunye.
50 Laban el sifilpa fahk, “Kom fin oru koluk acn nutik inge, ku payuk pac sin mutan saya, nga finne tia liye, kom esam lah God El tawikuti na.
Ungaze uphathe kubi amadodakazi ami, loba ungaze uthathe abanye abafazi ngaphandle kwamadodakazi ami, loba kungekho omunye umuntu olathi, khumbula ukuthi uNkulunkulu ungufakazi phakathi kwakho lami.”
51 Pa inge eot ma nga elosak ac eot lulap se mwe esmakin inmasrlok kom.
ULabhani wathi njalo kuJakhobe, “Nansi inqwaba le, njalo nansi insika engiyimise phakathi kwakho lami.

Sengathi uNkulunkulu ka-Abhrahama, loNkulunkulu kaNahori, uNkulunkulu kayise wabo angahlulela phakathi kwethu.” Ngakho uJakhobe wenza isifungo ebizweni likaMesatshwa kayise u-Isaka.

Ekuseni kakhulu ngosuku olulandelayo uLabhani wanga abazukulu bakhe lamadodakazi akhe wababusisa. Wasefulathela wabuyela ekhaya.
