پیدایش 31
| و سخنان پسران لابان را شنید که می گفتند: «یعقوب همه مایملک پدر مارا گرفته است، و از اموال پدر ما تمام این بزرگی رابهم رسانیده.» | ۱ 1 |
Someone told Jacob that Laban’s sons were complaining and saying, “Jacob has become very rich by taking everything [HYP] that belonged to our father.”
| و یعقوب روی لابان را دید که اینک مثل سابق با او نبود. | ۲ 2 |
And Jacob noticed that Laban was not acting friendly toward him as he had done before.
| و خداوند به یعقوب گفت: «به زمین پدرانت و به مولد خویش مراجعت کن و من با تو خواهم بود.» | ۳ 3 |
Then Yahweh said to Jacob, “Go back to your country and your relatives, and I will help you there.”
| پس یعقوب فرستاده، راحیل و لیه را به صحرا نزد گله خودطلب نمود. | ۴ 4 |
So Jacob sent a message to Rachel and Leah, telling them to come out to the pastures where his flocks of sheep and goats were.
| و بدیشان گفت: «روی پدر شما رامی بینم که مثل سابق با من نیست، لیکن خدای پدرم با من بوده است. | ۵ 5 |
When they arrived, he said to them, “I see that your father does not act friendly toward me as he did previously. But God, whom my father worshiped, has helped me.
| و شما می‌دانید که به تمام قوت خود پدر شما را خدمت کرده‌ام. | ۶ 6 |
You two know that I have worked very hard for your father,
| و پدرشما مرا فریب داده، ده مرتبه اجرت مرا تبدیل نمود ولی خدا او را نگذاشت که ضرری به من رساند. | ۷ 7 |
but many times [HYP] he has cheated me by decreasing my wages. But God has not allowed him to harm me.
| هر گاه می‌گفت اجرت تو پیسه‌ها باشد، تمام گله‌ها پیسه می‌آوردند، و هر گاه گفتی اجرت تو مخطط باشد، همه گله‌ها مخطط می‌زاییدند. | ۸ 8 |
When Laban said, ‘The speckled animals are the ones that I will give you to be your wages,’ then all the animals gave birth to young ones that were speckled. When he changed and said, ‘The ones that have black and white stripes on them will be your wages,’ then all the animals gave birth to young ones that were striped.
| پس خدا اموال پدر شما را گرفته، به من داده است.» | ۹ 9 |
In that way, God has taken away the livestock that belonged to your father and has given them to me.
| و واقع شد هنگامی که گله‌ها حمل می‌گرفتند که در خوابی چشم خود را باز کرده، دیدم اینک قوچهایی که با میشها جمع می‌شدند، مخطط و پیسه و ابلق بودند. | ۱۰ 10 |
“One time, when the animals were mating, I had a dream. In my dream I [looked up and was surprised to] see that some of the male goats that were mating with the female goats had black and white stripes on them, some were speckled, and some were spotted.
| و فرشته خدا درخواب به من گفت: «ای یعقوب!» گفتم: «لبیک.» | ۱۱ 11 |
An angel who was sent by God said to me in the dream, ‘Jacob!’ I replied, ‘I am here!’
| گفت: «اکنون چشمان خود را باز کن و بنگر که همه قوچهایی که با میشها جمع می‌شوند، مخططو پیسه و ابلق هستند زیرا که آنچه لابان به تو کرده است، دیده‌ام. | ۱۲ 12 |
He said to me, ‘Look up and you will see that all the male goats that are mating have black and white stripes on them, or are speckled or spotted. This is happening because I have seen all that Laban has done to you.
| من هستم خدای بیت ئیل، جایی که ستون را مسح کردی و با من نذر نمودی. الان برخاسته، از این زمین روانه شده، به زمین مولد خویش مراجعت نما.» | ۱۳ 13 |
I am God who appeared to you at Bethel, where you set up a stone to show that the place was holy, and you poured [olive] oil on the stone and made a solemn promise to me. So now leave this land immediately, and return to the land where you were born.’”
| راحیل و لیه در جواب وی گفتند: «آیا در خانه پدر ما، برای ما بهره یامیراثی باقیست؟ | ۱۴ 14 |
Rachel and Leah replied, “Our father will not give us anything more when he dies [RHQ].
| مگر نزد او چون بیگانگان محسوب نیستیم، زیرا که ما را فروخته است و نقدما را تمام خورده. | ۱۵ 15 |
He treats us as though we were foreigners [RHQ]! [Your working for him all these years was like a payment] that you gave him as a price for us, but we will not inherit any of that money that he got as a price for us. He has spent it all!
| زیرا تمام دولتی را که خدااز پدر ما گرفته است، از آن ما و فرزندان ماست، پس اکنون آنچه خدا به تو گفته است، بجا آور.» | ۱۶ 16 |
Surely all of the wealth that God took away from our father belongs to us and to our children. So do whatever God has told you to do!”
| آنگاه یعقوب برخاسته، فرزندان و زنان خود را بر شتران سوار کرد، | ۱۷ 17 |
Then Jacob put his children and his wives on camels.
| و تمام مواشی واموال خود را که اندوخته بود، یعنی مواشی حاصله خود را که در فدان ارام حاصل ساخته بود، برداشت تا نزد پدر خود اسحاق به زمین کنعان برود. | ۱۸ 18 |
He made all his livestock go ahead of him. Besides the livestock, he took along all the other things that he had acquired while living in Paddan-Aram. And they prepared to return to his father Isaac, in the Canaan region.
| و اما لابان برای پشم بریدن گله خود رفته بود و راحیل، بتهای پدر خود را دزدید. | ۱۹ 19 |
Before they left, while Laban was shearing his sheep, Rachel stole the [small wooden] idols [that were in her father’s tent].
| و یعقوب لابان ارامی را فریب داد، چونکه او رااز فرار کردن خود آگاه نساخت. | ۲۰ 20 |
Furthermore, Jacob deceived Laban, who belonged to the Aram people-group, by not telling him that they were planning to leave.
| پس با آنچه داشت، بگریخت و برخاسته، از نهر عبور کرد ومتوجه جبل جلعاد شد. | ۲۱ 21 |
So Jacob and his family fled with all their possessions, and they crossed the Euphrates River, and then started traveling south toward the hilly Gilead region.
| در روز سوم، لابان را خبر دادند که یعقوب فرار کرده است. | ۲۲ 22 |
On the third day after they left, someone told Laban that Jacob and his family had left.
| پس برادران خویش را با خودبرداشته، هفت روز راه در عقب او شتافت، تا درجبل جلعاد بدو پیوست. | ۲۳ 23 |
So he took some of his relatives with him and started to pursue Jacob. They continued walking for seven days.
| شبانگاه، خدا درخواب بر لابان ارامی ظاهر شده، به وی گفت: «باحذر باش که به یعقوب نیک یا بد نگویی.» | ۲۴ 24 |
Then God appeared to Laban in a dream at night, and said to him, “When you catch up to Jacob, be sure that you do not say anything at all [HYP] to him in an angry manner!”
| پس لابان به یعقوب دررسید و یعقوب خیمه خود رادر جبل زده بود، و لابان با برادران خود نیز درجبل جلعاد فرود آمدند. | ۲۵ 25 |
The next day, by the time Laban caught up with Jacob, Jacob and his household had set up their tents in the hilly Gilead region. So Laban and his relatives set up their tents there, too.
| و لابان به یعقوب گفت: «چه کردی که مرا فریب دادی و دخترانم رامثل اسیران، شمشیر برداشته، رفتی؟ | ۲۶ 26 |
Then Laban went to Jacob and said to him, “Why have you done this? You have deceived me by carrying away my daughters as though you had captured them in a war [MTY]!
| چرامخفی فرار کرده، مرا فریب دادی و مرا آگاه نساختی تا تو را با شادی و نغمات و دف و بربطمشایعت نمایم؟ | ۲۷ 27 |
Why did you run away and deceive me? Why did you not tell me that you were going to leave, so that we could have rejoiced and sung while people played music on tambourines and harps before I said ‘goodbye’ to you?
| و مرا نگذاشتی که پسران ودختران خود ببوسم؛ الحال ابلهانه حرکتی نمودی. | ۲۸ 28 |
(You did not even let me kiss my grandchildren and my daughters goodbye before they left!/Why did you not allow me to kiss my grandchildren and daughters goodbye before they left?) [RHQ] What you have done was foolish!
| در قوت دست من است که به شمااذیت رسانم. لیکن خدای پدر شما دوش به من خطاب کرده، گفت: «با حذر باش که به یعقوب نیک یا بد نگویی.» | ۲۹ 29 |
My relatives and I have the power to harm you, but last night the God whom your father worships said to me in a dream, ‘Be sure that you do not say anything at all to Jacob in an angry way.’
| و الان چونکه به خانه پدرخود رغبتی تمام داشتی البته رفتنی بودی و لکن خدایان مرا چرا دزدیدی؟» | ۳۰ 30 |
Now, I know you have left because you long to go back home. But why did you steal my [wooden] idols?”
| یعقوب در جواب لابان گفت: «سبب این بود که ترسیدم و گفتم شایددختران خود را از من به زور بگیری، | ۳۱ 31 |
Jacob replied to Laban, saying, “I did not tell you that we were planning to leave, because I was afraid. I thought that [if I told you], you would forcefully take your daughters away from me.
| و اما نزدهر‌که خدایانت را بیابی، او زنده نماند. در حضوربرادران ما، آنچه از اموال تو نزد ما باشد، مشخص کن و برای خود بگیر.» زیرا یعقوب ندانست که راحیل آنها را دزدیده است. | ۳۲ 32 |
But if you find anyone here who has your wooden idols, we will execute that person. While our relatives are watching, search for yourself to see if there is anything that belongs to you that is here with me. If you find anything, you can take it!” When Jacob said that, he did not know that Rachel had stolen the wooden idols.
| پس لابان به خیمه یعقوب و به خیمه لیه وبه خیمه دو کنیز رفت و نیافت، و از خیمه لیه بیرون آمده، به خیمه راحیل درآمد. | ۳۳ 33 |
Laban went into Jacob’s tent, and then into Leah’s tent, and then into the tents of the two female slaves and searched for the idols, but he did not find them. After he left their tents, he entered Rachel’s tent.
| اما راحیل بتها را گرفته، زیر جهاز شتر نهاد و بر آن بنشست و لابان تمام خیمه را جست وجو کرده، چیزی نیافت. | ۳۴ 34 |
But Rachel had previously taken the idols and put them in the saddle of a camel, and she was sitting on the saddle. So when Laban searched all over for them inside Rachel’s tent, he did not find them.
| او به پدر خود گفت: «بنظر آقایم بدنیاید که در حضورت نمی توانم برخاست، زیرا که عادت زنان بر من است.» پس تجسس نموده، بتهارا نیافت. | ۳۵ 35 |
Rachel said to her father, “Do not be angry with me, sir, but I cannot get up in your presence [to show respect for you], because I am having my monthly menstrual period. [EUP]” So when Laban searched some more, he did not find the [wooden] idols.
| آنگاه یعقوب خشمگین شده، با لابان منازعت کرد. و یعقوب در جواب لابان گفت: «تقصیر و خطای من چیست که بدین گرمی مراتعاقب نمودی؟ | ۳۶ 36 |
Then Jacob became angry. He rebuked Laban, saying, “What crime did I commit? For what sin that I committed have you pursued me?
| الان که تمامی اموال مراتفتیش کردی، از همه اسباب خانه خود چه یافته‌ای، اینجا نزد برادران من و برادران خودبگذار تا در میان من و تو انصاف دهند. | ۳۷ 37 |
Now you have searched through all my possessions, and what did you find from all these possessions that belongs to you? Put it here in front of my relatives and your relatives, so that they can decide who is right, you or me!
| در این بیست سال که من با تو بودم، میشها و بزهایت حمل نینداختند و قوچهای گله تو را نخوردم. | ۳۸ 38 |
I was with you for 20 years. In all that time, your sheep and goats have (not miscarried/always given birth to animals safely). I have not [killed and] eaten any rams from your flocks.
| دریده شده‌ای را پیش تو نیاوردم؛ خود تاوان آن را می‌دادم و آن را از دست من می‌خواستی، خواه دزدیده شده در روز و خواه دزدیده شده درشب. | ۳۹ 39 |
When one of your animals was attacked and mauled/killed by a wild animal, I did not bring it to you. I replaced the dead animal with a living one of my own animals. Whenever one of your animals was stolen, during the day or during the night, you demanded that I replace it with one of my own animals.
| چنین بودم که گرما در روز و سرما درشب، مرا تلف می‌کرد، و خواب از چشمانم می‌گریخت. | ۴۰ 40 |
I suffered from the heat during the day and from the cold at night. I was often not even able to sleep [PRS]!
| بدینطور بیست سال در خانه ات بودم، چهارده سال برای دو دخترت خدمت توکردم، و شش سال برای گله ات، و اجرت مرا ده مرتبه تغییر دادی. | ۴۱ 41 |
I lived in your household for 20 years. I worked for you for 14 years to buy your two daughters, and for six more years to buy some of your sheep and goats. During that time, you changed and reduced my wages many times [HYP].
| و اگر خدای پدرم، خدای ابراهیم، و هیبت اسحاق با من نبودی، اکنون نیزمرا تهی‌دست روانه می‌نمودی. خدا مصیبت مراو مشقت دستهای مرا دید و دوش، تو را توبیخ نمود.» | ۴۲ 42 |
If God, the one whom my grandfather Abraham worshiped and before whom my father Isaac trembled in fear, had not been with me and helped me, you would have sent me away (with nothing in my hands/owning nothing)! But God saw how much I was suffering and how hard I was working, so last night he told you that what you have done to me was wrong.”
| لابان در جواب یعقوب گفت: «این دختران، دختران منند و این پسران، پسران من واین گله، گله من و آنچه می‌بینی از آن من است. پس الیوم، به دختران خودم و به پسرانی که زاییده‌اند چه توانم کرد؟ | ۴۳ 43 |
Laban replied, “These two women are my daughters, and their children are my grandchildren, and the animals are my animals. Everything you see here is mine [HYP]! But what can I do today to keep my daughters or the children they have given birth to [RHQ]?
| اکنون بیا تا من و توعهد ببندیم که در میان من و تو شهادتی باشد.» | ۴۴ 44 |
I cannot do anything in order to keep them, so hey, we should make a peace agreement, you and I, and do something that will remind us about our agreement.”
| پس یعقوب سنگی گرفته، آن را ستونی برپانمود. | ۴۵ 45 |
So Jacob took a [large] stone and set it on its end.
| و یعقوب برادران خود را گفت: «سنگهاجمع کنید.» پس سنگها جمع کرده، توده‌ای ساختند و در آنجا بر توده غذا خوردند. | ۴۶ 46 |
Then Jacob said to his relatives, “You also gather some stones.” So they gathered some rocks and put them in a heap, and they ate some food there near the heap.
| ولابان آن را «یجرسهدوتا» نامید ولی یعقوب آن راجلعید خواند. | ۴۷ 47 |
Laban gave the heap the Aramaic name Jegar-Sahadutha, [which means ‘rock-pile to remind us’, ] but Jacob gave the rock-pile the Hebrew name Galeed, [which has the same meaning].
| و لابان گفت: «امروز این توده در میان من و تو شهادتی است.» از این سبب آن را «جلعید» نامید. | ۴۸ 48 |
Laban said to Jacob, “This pile of rocks we have put here today will help us to remember our agreement.” That is why Jacob called it Galeed.
| و مصفه نیز، زیرا گفت: «خداوند در میان من و تو دیده بانی کند وقتی که ازیکدیگر غایب شویم. | ۴۹ 49 |
They also named the place Mizpah, [which sounds like the Hebrew word that means ‘watchtower’, ] because Laban said, “We will ask Yahweh to watch you and me while we are separated from each other, [so that we do not try to harm each other].
| اگر دختران مرا آزارکنی، و سوای دختران من، زنان دیگر بگیری، هیچکس در میان ما نخواهد بود. آگاه باش، خدادر میان من و تو شاهد است.» | ۵۰ 50 |
If you mistreat my daughters, or if you take other women to be your wives, even if no one tells me about it, don’t forget that God sees what you and I are doing!”
| و لابان به یعقوب گفت: «اینک این توده و اینک این ستونی که در میان خود و تو برپا نمودم. | ۵۱ 51 |
Laban also said to Jacob, “You see this large stone and this pile of rocks that we have set up to be between us.
| این توده شاهد است و این ستون شاهد است که من از این توده بسوی تو نگذرم و تو از این توده و از این ستون به قصدبدی بسوی من نگذری. | ۵۲ 52 |
Both this pile of rocks and this large stone will remind us, that I will not go past these rocks to harm you, and you will not go past these rocks to harm me.
| خدای ابراهیم وخدای ناحور و خدای پدر ایشان در میان ماانصاف دهند.» و یعقوب قسم خورد به هیبت پدرخود اسحاق. | ۵۳ 53 |
We will ask the God whom [your grandfather] Abraham and [his father] Nahor worshiped to punish [MTY] either one of us, [if we harm the other one].” So Jacob solemnly promised to do what they said in their peace agreement. And he asked God, the one before whom his father Isaac trembled, to listen to what they promised.
| آنگاه یعقوب در آن کوه، قربانی گذرانید، و برادران خود را به نان خوردن دعوت نمود، و غذا خوردند و در کوه، شب را بسر بردند. | ۵۴ 54 |
He offered a sacrifice to God there in the hilly area, and he invited his relatives to eat with him. After they had eaten, they slept there that night.
| بامدادان لابان برخاسته، پسران و دختران خودرا بوسید و ایشان را برکت داد و لابان روانه شده، به مکان خویش مراجعت نمود. | ۵۵ 55 |
The next morning Laban kissed his grandchildren and his daughters [goodbye] and asked God to bless them. Then he [and his men] left them and returned home.
