< उत्पत्ति 31 >

1 याकूबले लाबानका छोराहरूले यसो भनेका सुने, “हाम्रा पिताका सबै थोक याकूबले लिएका छन्, र हाम्रा पिताका सम्पत्तिबाट नै तिनले यी सबै सम्पत्ति पाएका हुन् ।”
And he heard the words of Laban’s sons, saying, Jacob has taken away all that was our father’s; and of that which was our father’s has he gotten all this glory.
2 याकूबले लाबानको व्यवहार देखे । याकूबप्रति लाबानको मनसाय परिवर्तन भइसकेको याकूबले देखे ।
And Jacob beheld the countenance of Laban, and, behold, it was not toward him as before.
3 तब परमप्रभुले याकूबलाई भन्‍नुभयो, “तेरा पुर्खाहरू र तेरा आफन्तहरूको देशमा फर्केर जा, र म तँसित हुनेछु ।”
And the LORD said to Jacob, Return to the land of your fathers, and to your kindred; and I will be with you.
4 याकूबले राहेल र लेआलाई आफ्नो बगालको खेतमा बोलाउन पठाए,
And Jacob sent and called Rachel and Leah to the field to his flock,
5 र तिनीहरूलाई भने, “मप्रतिको तिमीहरूका पिताको मनसाय परिवर्तन भएको म देख्छु, तर मेरा पिताका परमेश्‍वर मसित हुनुभएको छ ।
And said to them, I see your father’s countenance, that it is not toward me as before; but the God of my father has been with me.
6 मेरो सारा शक्ति लगाएर मैले तिमीहरूका पिताको सेवा गरेको कुरा त तिमीहरूलाई थाहै छ ।
And you know that with all my power I have served your father.
7 तिमीहरूका पिताले मलाई ठगेका छन्, र मेरो ज्याला दस पटक बद्लेका छन्, तर परमेश्‍वरले तिनलाई मेरो हानि गर्न दिनुभएको छैन ।
And your father has deceived me, and changed my wages ten times; but God suffered him not to hurt me.
8 'थोप्ले जनावरहरू तिम्रो ज्याला हुनेछ' भनी तिनले भन्दा सबै बगालले थोप्ले पाठा-पाठी नै जन्माए । 'पेटारेहरू तिम्रो ज्याला हुनेछ' भनी तिनले भन्दा सारा बगालले पेटारे पाठा-पाठीहरू नै जन्माए ।
If he said thus, The speckled shall be your wages; then all the cattle bore speckled: and if he said thus, The ringstraked shall be your hire; then bore all the cattle ringstraked.
9 यसरी परमेश्‍वरले तिमीहरूका पिताका गाईबस्तु मलाई दिनुभएको छ ।
Thus God has taken away the cattle of your father, and given them to me.
10 एक पटक बगाल मिसिने समयमा मैले सपनामा बोकाहरू बगालमा सँगसँगै भएको देखेँ । बोकाहरू छिर्केमिर्के, पेटारे र थोप्ले थिए ।
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 on the cattle were ringstraked, speckled, and spotted.
11 सपनामा परमेश्‍वरका दूतले मलाई भने, 'हे याकूब!' मैले जवाफ दिएँ, “हजुर, म यहाँ छु ।'
And the angel of God spoke to me in a dream, saying, Jacob: And I said, Here am I.
12 उहाँले भन्‍नुभयो, 'तेरा आँखा उठाएर सबै बोका बगालमाथि चढिरहेको हेर् । तिनीहरू छिर्केमिर्के, पेटारे र थोप्ले छन् किनकि लाबानले तँलाई गरेको हरेक कुरा मैले देखेको छु ।
And he said, Lift up now your eyes, and see, all the rams which leap on the cattle are ringstraked, speckled, and spotted: for I have seen all that Laban does to you.
13 म बेथेलको परमेश्‍वर हुँ जहाँ तैँले खामोलाई अभिषेक गरिस् र मसित भाकल गरिस् । अब उठ् र यस देश छाडेर तेरो जन्मभूमिमा फर्कि' ।”
I am the God of Bethel, where you anointed the pillar, and where you vowed a vow to me: now arise, get you out from this land, and return to the land of your kindred.
14 राहेल र लेआले तिनलाई जवाफ दिएर भने, “के हाम्रा पिताको घरमा हाम्रा निम्ति हकको कुनै भाग छ र? के उहाँले हामीलाई विदेशीहरूलाई जस्तै व्यवहार गर्नुभएको छैन र?
And Rachel and Leah answered and said to him, Is there yet any portion or inheritance for us in our father’s house?
15 किनकि उहाँले हामीलाई बेच्नुभएको छ, र हाम्रो रुपियाँ-पैसा पूर्ण रूपमा सखाप पार्नुभएको छ ।
Are we not counted of him strangers? for he has sold us, and has quite devoured also our money.
16 हाम्रा पिताबाट परमेश्‍वरले लैजानुभएका सबै सम्पत्ति अब हाम्रा र हाम्रा छोराछोरीहरूका भएका छन् । त्यसो भए, अब परमेश्‍वरले तपाईंलाई जे भन्‍नुभएको छ, सो गर्नुहोस् ।”
For all the riches which God has taken from our father, that is ours, and our children’s: now then, whatever God has said to you, do.
17 त्यसपछि याकूब उठे, र तिनले आफ्ना छोराहरू र पत्‍नीहरूलाई ऊँटहरूमाथि राखे ।
Then Jacob rose up, and set his sons and his wives on camels;
18 तिनले पद्दन-आराममा आफूले प्राप्‍त गरेका आफ्ना सबै गाईबस्तु र सबै सम्पत्तिलाई आफ्नो अगिअगि पठाए । त्यसपछि तिनी कनान देशमा आफ्ना पिता इसहाककहाँ जान निस्के ।
And he carried away all his cattle, and all his goods which he had gotten, the cattle of his getting, which he had gotten in Padanaram, for to go to Isaac his father in the land of Canaan.
19 लाबान आफ्ना भेडाहरूको ऊन कत्रन जाँदा राहेलले आफ्ना पिताका घर-देवताहरू चोरिन् ।
And Laban went to shear his sheep: and Rachel had stolen the images that were her father’s.
20 अरामी लाबानलाई थाहा नदिई घर छाडेकाले याकूबले तिनलाई पनि छल गरे ।
And Jacob stole away unawares to Laban the Syrian, in that he told him not that he fled.
21 आफूसित भएका सबै थोक लिएर तिनी भागे, र छिट्टै महानदी पार गरेर गिलादको पहाडी देशतर्फ अगाडि बढे ।
So he fled with all that he had; and he rose up, and passed over the river, and set his face toward the mount Gilead.
22 याकूब भागेको कुरा लाबानलाई तेस्रो दिनमा बताइयो ।
And it was told Laban on the third day that Jacob was fled.
23 त्यसैले तिनले आफूसित आफ्ना आफन्तहरू लिई सात दिनसम्म तिनको पिछा गरे । लाबानले गिलादको पहाडी देशमा तिनलाई भेट्टाए ।
And he took his brothers with him, and pursued after him seven days’ journey; and they overtook him in the mount Gilead.
24 राती सपनामा परमेश्‍वर अरामी लाबानकहाँ देखा पर्नुभई तिनलाई भन्‍नुभयो, “तैँले याकूबसित असल वा खराब कुनै कुरो नभन्‍न होसियार हो ।”
And God came to Laban the Syrian in a dream by night, and said to him, Take heed that you speak not to Jacob either good or bad.
25 लाबानले याकूबलाई भेट्टाउँदा याकूब त्यस पहाडी देशमा पाल टाँगेर बसेका थिए । गिलादको पहाडी देशमा लाबान पनि आफ्ना आफन्तहरूसँगै पाल टाँगेर बसे ।
Then Laban overtook Jacob. Now Jacob had pitched his tent in the mount: and Laban with his brothers pitched in the mount of Gilead.
26 लाबानले याकूबलाई भने, “तिमीले मेरा छोरीहरूलाई युद्धका कैदीहरूलाई जस्तै गरी लगेर मलाई छल गरी यो के गरेको?
And Laban said to Jacob, What have you done, that you have stolen away unawares to me, and carried away my daughters, as captives taken with the sword?
27 किन तिमीले मलाई नबताईकन सुटुक्‍क भागेर धोका दियौ? गीत गाउँदै वीणा र खैँजडी बजाउँदै उत्सवको साथमा मैले तिमीलाई बिदा गर्ने थिएँ ।
Why did you flee away secretly, and steal away from me; and did not tell me, that I might have sent you away with mirth, and with songs, with tabret, and with harp?
28 तिमीले मेरा नातिहरू र छोरीहरूलाई बिदाइको चुम्बन गर्ने अनुमति पनि दिएनौ । तिमीले मूर्खतापूर्वक काम गर्‍यौ ।
And have not suffered me to kiss my sons and my daughters? you have now done foolishly in so doing.
29 तिमीलाई हानि गर्ने शक्ति मसित छ, तर तिम्रा परमेश्‍वर गत रात मसित यसो भन्दै बोल्नुभयो, 'तैँले याकूबसित असल वा खराब कुनै कुरो नभन्‍न होसियार हो ।'
It is in the power of my hand to do you hurt: but the God of your father spoke to me last night, saying, Take you heed that you speak not to Jacob either good or bad.
30 अब तिमीले आफ्ना पिताको घरमा फर्कने चाहना गरेकाले तिमी आइसकेका छौ । तर तिमीले मेरा घर-देवताहरू किन चोरी गर्‍यौ?
And now, though you would needs be gone, because you sore longed after your father’s house, yet why have you stolen my gods?
31 याकूबले लाबानलाई जवाफ दिई भने, “तपाईंले आफ्ना छोरीहरू मबाट जबरजस्ती खोसेर लैजानुहुने थियो भनी मैले ठानेकाले म डराएको थिएँ । त्यसैले म सुटुक्‍क भागेँ ।
And Jacob answered and said to Laban, Because I was afraid: for I said, Peradventure you would take by force your daughters from me.
32 तपाईंका घर-देवताहरू जोसुकैले चोरेको भए तापनि अबदेखि त्यो बाँच्नेछैन । हाम्रा आफन्तहरूको उपस्थितिमा तपाईंसित भएको कुनै थोक मसित छ भने चिनेर लैजानुहोस् ।” राहेलले ती चोरेकी थिइन् भनी याकूबलाई थाहा थिएन ।
With whomsoever you find your gods, let him not live: before our brothers discern you what is your with me, and take it to you. For Jacob knew not that Rachel had stolen them.
33 लाबान याकूब र लेआको पालसाथै दुई जना कमारीका पालभित्र गए, तर तिनले ती घर-देवताहरू पाएनन् । तिनी लेआको पालबाट बाहिर आई राहेलको पालभित्र पसे ।
And Laban went into Jacob’s tent, and into Leah’s tent, and into the two maidservants’ tents; but he found them not. Then went he out of Leah’s tent, and entered into Rachel’s tent.
34 राहेलले ती घर-देवताहरू ल्याएकी थिइन् र तिनलाई ऊँटको काठीमा लुकाएकी थिइन् । उनी तीमाथि बसेकी थिइन् । लाबानले पुरै पालमा खोजी गरे तापनि ती पाएनन् ।
Now Rachel had taken the images, and put them in the camel’s furniture, and sat on them. And Laban searched all the tent, but found them not.
35 उनले आफ्ना पितालाई भनिन्, “हजुर मसित नरिसाउनुहोला । म महिनावरी भएकीले म तपाईंको सामु उठ्न सक्दिनँ ।” त्यसैले तिनले खोजी गरे तापनि ती घर-देवताहरू भेट्टाएनन् ।
And she said to her father, Let it not displease my lord that I cannot rise up before you; for the custom of women is on me. And he searched but found not the images.
36 याकूब रिसाए र तिनले लाबानलाई हप्काए, “मेरो दोष के हो? मेरो पाप के हो जसको लागि तपाईंले मेरो यसरी पिछा गर्नुभयो?
And Jacob was wroth, and strived with Laban: and Jacob answered and said to Laban, What is my trespass? what is my sin, that you have so hotly pursued after me?
37 तपाईंले मेरा सबै मालसामानको खोजी गरिसक्‍नुभयो । के तपाईंले कुनै आफ्ना घरेलु सामानहरू फेला पार्नुभयो? पाउनुभएको छ भने ती हाम्रा आफन्तहरूको सामु राखिदिनुहोस् ताकि तिनीहरूले हामी दुईको बिचमा न्याय गरून् ।
Whereas you have searched all my stuff, what have you found of all your household stuff? set it here before my brothers and your brothers, that they may judge between us both.
38 बिस वर्षसम्म म तपाईंसँगै थिएँ । तपाईंका भेडीहरू र बाख्रीहरूका गर्भ कहिल्यै तुहिएन, न त मैले तपाईंका बगालबाट भेडाहरू खाएँ ।
This twenty years have I been with you; your ewes and your she goats have not cast their young, and the rams of your flock have I not eaten.
39 जङ्गली जनावरहरूले फहराएकाहरूलाई मैले तपाईंकहाँ ल्याउन्‍नथेँ । बरु, मैले त्यसको क्षतिपूर्ति तिर्थें । दिनमा चोरी भएर होस् वा रातमा चोरी भएर होस्, तपाईंले मलाई सधैँ हराएको हरेक पशुको मोल तिराउनुभयो ।
That which was torn of beasts I brought not to you; I bore the loss of it; of my hand did you require it, whether stolen by day, or stolen by night.
40 मेरो हालत यस्तो थियो, कि दिउँसो गर्मीले मलाई पोल्थ्यो भने राती चिसोले ठिर्‍याउँथ्यो । मलाई निद्रा लाग्दैनथ्यो ।
Thus I was; in the day the drought consumed me, and the frost by night; and my sleep departed from my eyes.
41 यी बिस वर्ष म तपाईंको घरमा रहेँ । तपाईंका दुई छोरीका लागि मैले चौध वर्ष तपाईंको सेवा गरेँ, र बगालको लागि छ वर्ष सेवा गरेँ । तपाईंले दस पटक मेरो ज्याला बद्लनुभएको छ ।
Thus have I been twenty years in your house; I served you fourteen years for your two daughters, and six years for your cattle: and you have changed my wages ten times.
42 मेरा पिताका परमेश्‍वर जो अब्राहामका परमेश्‍वर र इसहाकका भय हुनुहुन्छ, उहाँ मसित नहुनुभएको भए निश्‍चय नै तपाईंले मलाई रित्तै हात पठाउनुहुने थियो । परमेश्‍वरले ममाथिको थिचोमिचो र मैले गरेको कडा परिश्रम देख्‍नुभएको छ । त्यसैले उहाँले गत रात तपाईंलाई हप्काउनुभयो ।”
Except the God of my father, the God of Abraham, and the fear of Isaac, had been with me, surely you had sent me away now empty. God has seen my affliction and the labor of my hands, and rebuked you last night.
43 लाबानले याकूबलाई जवाफ दिई भने, “यी छोरीहरू मेरै छोरीहरू हुन्; यी नातिनातिनाहरू मेरै नातिनातिनाहरू हुन् र यी बगालहरू मेरै बगालहरू हुन् । तिमीले देखेका यी सबै मेरै हुन् । तर आज यी मेरा छोरीहरू र तिनीहरूले जन्माएका छोराछोरीहरूलाई म के नै गर्न सक्छु र?
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 you see is mine: and what can I do this day to these my daughters, or to their children which they have born?
44 त्यसैले अब तिमी र मेरो बिचमा एउटा करार बाँधौँ अनि यही करार तिमी र मेरो बिचको गवाही होस् ।”
Now therefore come you, let us make a covenant, I and you; and let it be for a witness between me and you.
45 त्यसकारण याकूबले एउटा ढुङ्गो लिएर त्यसलाई खामोको रूपमा खडा गरे ।
And Jacob took a stone, and set it up for a pillar.
46 याकूबले आफ्ना आफन्तहरूलाई भने, “ढुङ्गाहरू जम्मा गर ।” तिनीहरूले ढुङ्गाहरूको थुप्रो लगाए । त्यसपछि तिनीहरूले त्यही थुप्रोनेर खानपान गरे ।
And Jacob said to his brothers, Gather stones; and they took stones, and made an heap: and they did eat there on the heap.
47 लाबानले त्यसको नाउँ यगर-सहदूता राखे, तर याकूबले त्यसलाई गलेद भने ।
And Laban called it Jegarsahadutha: but Jacob called it Galeed.
48 लाबानले भने, “आज यो थुप्रो तिमी र मेरो बिचमा गवाहीको रूपमा खडा छ । त्यसकारण यसको नाउँ गलेद राखियो ।
And Laban said, This heap is a witness between me and you this day. Therefore was the name of it called Galeed;
49 यसलाई मिस्पा पनि भनिन्छ किनभने लाबानले यसो भनेका थिए, “हामी एक-अर्काको दृष्‍टिबाट अलग हुँदा परमप्रभुले तिमी र मेरो हेरचाह गरून् ।
And Mizpah; for he said, The LORD watch between me and you, when we are absent one from another.
50 तिमीले मेरा छोरीहरूलाई दुर्व्यवहार गर्‍यौ वा तिमीले मेरा छोरीहरूबाहेक अन्य पत्‍नीहरू ल्यायौ भने हामीसित कोही नभए तापनि परमेश्‍वर तिम्रो र मेरो बिचमा गवाही हुनुहुन्छ ।”
If you shall afflict my daughters, or if you shall take other wives beside my daughters, no man is with us; see, God is witness between me and you.
51 लाबानले याकूबलाई भने, “तिम्रो र मेरो बिचमा मैले खडा गरेको यो थुप्रो र यो खामोलाई हेर ।
And Laban said to Jacob, Behold this heap, and behold this pillar, which I have cast between me and you:
52 तिम्रो हानि गर्नलाई म यो पार गरेर तिमीकहाँ आउनेछैनँ र मेरो हानि गर्नलाई तिमी यो पार गरेर मकहाँ आउनेछैनौ भन्‍नाका लागि यो थुप्रो र यो खामो गवाहीको रूपमा खडा छन् ।
This heap be witness, and this pillar be witness, that I will not pass over this heap to you, and that you shall not pass over this heap and this pillar to me, for harm.
53 अब्राहामका परमेश्‍वर, नाहोरका परमेश्‍वर र तिनीहरूका पिताका परमेश्‍वरले हाम्रो बिचमा न्याय गरून् । याकूबले आफ्ना पिता इसहाकको भयलाई साक्षी मानी शपथ खाए ।
The God of Abraham, and the God of Nahor, the God of their father, judge between us. And Jacob swore by the fear of his father Isaac.
54 याकूबले त्यस पहाडमा बलिदान चढाए र आफ्ना आफन्तहरूलाई खानपानको लागि बोलाए । तिनीहरूले खानपान गरे, अनि पुरै रात त्यही पहाडमा बिताए ।
Then Jacob offered sacrifice on the mount, and called his brothers to eat bread: and they did eat bread, and tarried all night in the mount.
55 लाबान बिहान सबेरै उठे । तिनले आफ्ना नातिहरू, आफ्ना छोरीहरूलाई चुम्बन गरी आशिष् दिए । त्यसपछि लाबान बिदा भई घर फर्के ।
And early in the morning Laban rose up, and kissed his sons and his daughters, and blessed them: and Laban departed, and returned to his place.
