< Genesis 31 >

1 Jakọbu sì gbọ́ pé àwọn ọmọ Labani ń wí pé, “Jakọbu ti gba gbogbo ohun ìní baba wa, ó sì ti kó ọrọ̀ jọ fún ara rẹ̀ lára àwọn ohun tí í ṣe ti baba wa.”
And he heard the words of Laban's sons, saying, Jacob hath taken away all that [was] our father's; and of [that] which [was] our father's hath he obtained all this glory.
2 Jakọbu sì ṣàkíyèsí pé ìwà Labani sí òun ti yí padà sí ti àtẹ̀yìnwá.
And Jacob beheld the countenance of Laban, and behold, it [was] not towards him as before.
3 Nígbà náà ni Olúwa wí fún Jakọbu pé, “Padà lọ sí ilẹ̀ àwọn baba à rẹ, sí ọ̀dọ̀ àwọn ará rẹ, èmi ó sì wà pẹ̀lú rẹ.”
And the LORD said to Jacob, Return to the land of thy fathers, and to thy kindred; and I will be with thee.
4 Jakọbu sì ránṣẹ́ pe Rakeli àti Lea sí pápá níbi tí àwọn ohun ọ̀sìn rẹ̀ wà.
And Jacob sent and called Rachel and Leah into the field to his flock,
5 Ó sì wí fún wọn pé, “Mo rí i wí pé ìwà baba yín sí mi ti yí padà sí ti tẹ́lẹ̀, ṣùgbọ́n Ọlọ́run baba mi wà pẹ̀lú mi.
And said to them, I see your father's countenance, that it [is] not towards me as before: but the God of my father hath been with me.
6 Ẹ sá à mọ̀ pé, mo ti fi gbogbo agbára mi ṣiṣẹ́ fún baba yín,
And ye know that with all my power I have served your father.
7 síbẹ̀síbẹ̀ baba yín ti rẹ́ mi jẹ ní ẹ̀ẹ̀mẹwàá ọ̀tọ̀ọ̀tọ̀ ni ó sì ti yí owó iṣẹ́ mi padà. Ṣùgbọ́n Ọlọ́run kò jẹ́ kí ó le è pa mi lára.
And your father hath deceived me, and changed my wages ten times: but God suffered him not to hurt me.
8 Tí ó bá wí pé, ‘Àwọn ẹran onílà ni yóò dúró fún owó iṣẹ́ rẹ,’ nígbà náà ni gbogbo àwọn ẹran ń bí onílà; bí ó bá sì wí pé, ‘Àwọn ẹran onítótòtó ni yóò dúró fún owó iṣẹ́ rẹ,’ nígbà náà ni gbogbo ẹran ń bi onítótòtó.
If he said thus, The speckled shall be thy wages; then all the cattle bore speckled: and if he said thus, The ring-streaked shall be thy hire; then all the cattle bore ring-streaked.
9 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Ọlọ́run gba ẹran baba yín, ó sì fi fún mi.
Thus God hath taken away the cattle of your father, and given [them] to me.
10 “Ní àsìkò tí àwọn ẹran ń gùn, mo la àlá mo sì ri pé àwọn òbúkọ tí wọ́n ń gun àwọn ẹran jẹ́ onítótòtó, onílà àti alámì.
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 upon the cattle [were] ring-streaked, speckled, and grizzled.
11 Angẹli Ọlọ́run wí fún mi nínú àlá náà pé, ‘Jakọbu.’ Mo sì wí pé, ‘Èmi nìyí.’
And the angel of God spoke to me in a dream, [saying], Jacob: And I said, Here [am] I.
12 Ó sì wí pé, ‘Gbé ojú rẹ sókè kí o sì wò ó, gbogbo àwọn òbúkọ tí ó ń gun àwọn ẹran jẹ́ onítótòtó, onílà àti alámì, nítorí mo ti rí gbogbo ohun ti Labani ń ṣe sí ọ.
And he said, Lift up now thy eyes and see, all the rams which leap upon the cattle [are] ring-streaked, speckled, and grizzled: for I have seen all that Laban doeth to thee.
13 Èmi ni Ọlọ́run Beteli, níbi tí ìwọ ti ta òróró sí ọ̀wọ́n, ìwọ sì jẹ́ ẹ̀jẹ́ láti sìn mi. Nísinsin yìí, kúrò ní ilẹ̀ yìí kíákíá kí o sì padà sí ilẹ̀ ibi tí a gbé ti bí ọ.’”
I [am] the God of Beth-el, where thou anointedst the pillar, [and] where thou vowedst to me a vow: now arise, depart from this land, and return to the land of thy kindred.
14 Nígbà náà ni Rakeli àti Lea dáhùn pé, “Ìpín wo ní a ní nínú ogún baba wa?
And Rachel and Leah answered, and said to him, [Is there] yet any portion or inheritance for us in our father's house?
15 Àjèjì ha kọ́ ni ó kà wá sí? Kì í ṣe torí pé ó tà wá nìkan, ṣùgbọ́n ó ti ná gbogbo owó tí ó gbà lórí wa tán.
Are we not counted by him strangers; for he hath sold us, and hath quite consumed also our money.
16 Dájúdájú gbogbo ọrọ̀ ti Ọlọ́run gbà lọ́wọ́ baba wa fún ọ, tiwa àti ti àwọn ọmọ wa ní í ṣe. Nítorí náà ohun gbogbo tí Ọlọ́run bá pàṣẹ fun ọ láti ṣe ni kí ìwọ kí ó ṣe.”
For all the riches which God hath taken from our father, that [is] ours, and our children's: now then whatever God hath said to thee, do.
17 Nígbà náà ni Jakọbu gbé àwọn ọmọ àti aya rẹ̀ gun ìbákasẹ.
Then Jacob arose, and set his sons and his wives upon camels;
18 Ó sì da gbogbo agbo ẹran rẹ̀ ṣáájú pẹ̀lú gbogbo ọrọ̀ tí ó ti kójọ ni Padani-Aramu, láti lọ sí ọ̀dọ̀ Isaaki baba rẹ̀ ni ilẹ̀ Kenaani.
And he carried away all his cattle, and all his goods which he had gained, the cattle of his getting, which he had gained in Padan-aram; to go to Isaac, his father, in the land of Canaan.
19 Nígbà tí Labani sì lọ láti rẹ́run àgùntàn, Rakeli sì jí àwọn ère òrìṣà ilé baba rẹ̀.
And Laban went to shear his sheep; and Rachel had stolen the images that [were] her father's.
20 Síwájú sí i, Jakọbu tan Labani ará Aramu, nítorí kò sọ fún un wí pé òun ń sálọ.
And Jacob stole away unawares to Laban the Syrian, in that he told him not that he was about to depart.
21 Ó sì sálọ pẹ̀lú ohun gbogbo tí ó ni, ó sì la odò kọjá (Eufurate), ó sì kọrí sí àwọn ilẹ̀ olókè ti Gileadi.
So he fled with all that he had; and he arose, and passed over the river, and set his face [towards] the mount Gilead.
22 Ní ọjọ́ kẹta ni Labani gbọ́ pé Jakọbu ti sálọ.
And it was told Laban on the third day that Jacob had fled.
23 Ó sì mú àwọn arákùnrin rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú rẹ̀, ó sì lépa Jakọbu, ó sì lépa wọn fún ọjọ́ méje, ó sì bá wọn ní òkè Gileadi.
And he took his brethren with him, and pursued after him seven days' journey: and they overtook him in the mount Gilead.
24 Ọlọ́run sì yọ sí Labani ará Aramu lójú àlá ní òru, ó sì wí fun un pé, “Ṣọ́ra, má ṣe sọ ohunkóhun fún Jakọbu, ìbá à ṣe rere tàbí búburú.”
And God came to Laban, the Syrian, in a dream by night, and said to him, Take heed that thou speak not to Jacob either good or bad.
25 Jakọbu ti pa àgọ́ rẹ̀ si orí òkè kan, nígbà tí Labani bá a. Labani àti àwọn tí ó wá pẹ̀lú rẹ̀ sì pàgọ́ tì wọ́n sí ilẹ̀ òkè Gileadi.
Then Laban overtook Jacob. Now Jacob had pitched his tent in the mount: and Laban, with his brethren, pitched in the mount of Gilead.
26 Nígbà náà ni Labani wí fún Jakọbu pé, “Èwo ni ìwọ ṣe yìí? Tí ìwọ sì tàn mi, ó sì kó àwọn ọmọbìnrin mi bi ìgbèkùn tí a fi idà mú.
And Laban said to Jacob, What hast thou done, that thou hast stolen away unawares to me, and carried away my daughters, as captives [taken] with the sword?
27 Èéṣe tí ìwọ yọ́ lọ tí ìwọ sì tàn mi? Kí ló dé tí ìwọ kò sọ fún mi pé ìwọ ń lọ, kí èmi fi ayọ̀ àti orin, pẹ̀lú ìlù àti ohun èlò orin sìn ọ́.
Why didst thou flee away secretly, and steal away from me, and didst not tell me, that I might have sent thee away with mirth, and with songs, with tabret, and with harp?
28 Ìwọ kò tilẹ̀ jẹ́ kí èmi fi ẹnu ko àwọn ọmọ ọmọ mi lẹ́nu, pẹ̀lú àwọn ọmọbìnrin mi pé ó dìgbà? Ìwọ ṣiwèrè ní ohun tí ìwọ ṣe yìí.
And hast not suffered me to kiss my sons, and my daughters? thou hast now done foolishly in [so] doing.
29 Mo ní agbára láti ṣe ọ ni ibi, ṣùgbọ́n ní òru àná, Ọlọ́run baba rẹ sọ fún mi pé, kí èmi ṣọ́ra, kí èmi má ṣe sọ ohun kan fún Jakọbu, ìbá à ṣe rere tàbí búburú.
It is in the power of my hand to do you hurt: but the God of your father spoke to me yesternight, saying, Take thou heed that thou speak not to Jacob either good or bad.
30 Nísinsin yìí, ìwọ ti lọ nítorí ìwọ fẹ́ láti padà lọ sí ilé baba rẹ, ṣùgbọ́n èéṣe tí ìwọ fi jí àwọn òrìṣà mi?”
And now, [though] thou wouldest needs be gone, because thou didst earnestly long after thy father's house; [yet] why hast thou stolen my gods?
31 Jakọbu dá Labani lóhùn pé, “Ẹ̀rù ni ó bà mi nítorí, mo rò pé ìwọ le fi tipátipá gba àwọn ọmọbìnrin rẹ lọ́wọ́ mi.
And Jacob answered and said to Laban, Because I was afraid: for I said, It may be thou wouldest take thy daughters from me by force.
32 Ṣùgbọ́n bí o bá ri ẹnikẹ́ni pẹ̀lú ère rẹ, kí ẹni náà di òkú. Ó tún wí pé, níwájú gbogbo ìbátan wa báyìí, wò ó fúnra rẹ̀, bí o bá rí ohunkóhun tí í ṣe tìrẹ, mú un.” Jakọbu kò sì mọ̀ pé, Rakeli ni ó jí àwọn òrìṣà náà.
With whomsoever thou findest thy gods, let him not live: before our brethren discern thou what [is] thine with me, and take [it] to thee: for Jacob knew not that Rachel had stolen them.
33 Labani sì lọ sínú àgọ́ Jakọbu àti ti Lea àti ti àwọn ìránṣẹ́bìnrin méjèèjì, kò sì rí ohunkóhun. Lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí ó jáde nínú àgọ́ Lea ni ó lọ sí àgọ́ Rakeli.
And Laban went into Jacob's tent, and into Leah's tent, and into the two maid-servants' tents; but he found [them] not. Then he went out of Leah's tent, and entered into Rachel's tent.
34 Rakeli sì gbé àwọn òrìṣà náà sínú gàárì ìbákasẹ, ó sì jókòó lé e lórí. Labani sì wá gbogbo inú àgọ́, kò sì rí ohunkóhun.
Now Rachel had taken the images, and put them in the camel's furniture, and sat upon them. And Laban searched all the tent, but found [them] not.
35 Rakeli sì wí fún baba rẹ̀ pé, “Má ṣe bínú pé èmi ò le dìde dúró níwájú rẹ baba à mi, ohun tí ó fà á ni pé, mò ń ṣe nǹkan oṣù lọ́wọ́.” Ó sì wá àgọ́ kiri, kò sì rí àwọn òrìṣà ìdílé náà.
And she said to her father, Let it not displease my lord that I cannot rise up before thee; for the custom of women [is] upon me. And he searched, but found not the images.
36 Inú sì bí Jakọbu, ó sì pe Labani ní ìjà pé, “Kí ni ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ mi? Ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ wo ni mo ṣẹ̀ ọ tí ìwọ fi ń lépa mi bí ọ̀daràn?
And Jacob was wroth, and chid with Laban: and Jacob answered, and said to Laban, What [is] my trespass? what [is] my sin, that thou hast so eagerly pursued after me?
37 Nísinsin yìí tí ìwọ ti tú gbogbo ẹrù mi wò, kí ni ohun tí í ṣe tirẹ̀ tí ìwọ rí? Kó wọn kalẹ̀ báyìí níwájú gbogbo ìbátan rẹ àti tèmi, kí wọn kí ó sì ṣe ìdájọ́ láàrín àwa méjèèjì.
Whereas thou hast searched all my stuff, what hast thou found of all thy household-stuff? set [it] here before my brethren, and thy brethren, that they may judge betwixt us both.
38 “Mo ti wà lọ́dọ̀ rẹ fún ogún ọdún, àwọn àgùntàn tàbí ewúrẹ́ rẹ kò sọnù bẹ́ẹ̀ n kò pa ọ̀kan jẹ rí nínú àwọn àgbò rẹ.
These twenty years [have] I [been] with thee: thy ewes and thy she-goats have not cast their young, and the rams of thy flock have I not eaten.
39 Èmi kò mú ọ̀kankan wá fún ọ rí nínú èyí tí ẹranko búburú fàya, èmi ni ó fi ara mọ́ irú àdánù bẹ́ẹ̀. Ẹrankẹ́ran tí wọ́n bá sì jí lọ, lọ́sàn án tàbí lóru, ìwọ ń gba owó rẹ̀ lọ́wọ́ mi.
That which was torn by beasts, I brought not to thee; I bore the loss of it; of my hand didst thou require it, [whether] stolen by day, or stolen by night.
40 Báyìí ni mo wà; oòrùn ń pa mi lọ́sàn án, òtútù ń pa mi lóru, mo sì ń ṣe àìsùn.
[Thus] I was; in the day the drouth consumed me, and the frost by night; and my sleep departed from my eyes.
41 Báyìí ni ohun gbogbo rí fún ogún ọdún tí mo fi wà nínú ilé rẹ. Ọdún mẹ́rìnlá ni mo fi sìn ọ́ fún àwọn ọmọbìnrin rẹ méjèèjì, mo sì sìn ọ fún ọdún mẹ́fà fún àwọn ẹran ọ̀sìn, lẹ́ẹ̀mẹ́wàá ni o sì yí owó iṣẹ́ mi padà.
Thus have I been twenty years in thy house: I served thee fourteen years for thy two daughters, and six years for thy cattle: and thou hast changed my wages ten times.
42 Bí ó bá ṣe pé Ọlọ́run àwọn baba mi, Ọlọ́run Abrahamu àti ẹ̀rù Isaaki kò wà pẹ̀lú mi ni, ìwọ ìbá ti lé mi jáde lọ́wọ́ òfo. Ṣùgbọ́n, Ọlọ́run ti rí gbogbo ìpọ́njú mi àti iṣẹ́ àṣekára tí mo fi ọwọ́ mi ṣe, ó sì kìlọ̀ fún ọ lóru àná.”
Except the God of my father, the God of Abraham, and the fear of Isaac had been with me, surely thou hadst now sent me away empty. God hath seen my affliction, and the labor of my hands, and rebuked [thee] yesternight.
43 Labani sì dá Jakọbu lóhùn, “Tèmi ni àwọn obìnrin wọ̀nyí, ọmọ mi ni àwọn ọmọ wọ̀nyí pẹ̀lú, àwọn agbo ẹran yìí, tèmi ni wọ́n pẹ̀lú. Gbogbo ohun tí o rí wọ̀nyí, tèmi ni. Kí ni mo wá le ṣe sí àwọn ọmọbìnrin wọ̀nyí àti àwọn ọmọ wọn tí wọn bí?
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 thou seest [is] mine; and what can I do this day to these my daughters, or to their children which they have borne?
44 Wá, jẹ́ kí a dá májẹ̀mú pẹ̀lú ara wa, èyí yóò sì jẹ́ ẹ̀rí ní àárín wa.”
Now therefore come thou, let us make a covenant, I and thou; and let it be for a witness between me and thee.
45 Jakọbu sì mú òkúta kan ó sì gbé e dúró bí ọ̀wọ́n.
And Jacob took a stone, and set it up [for] a pillar.
46 Ó sì wí fún àwọn ìbátan rẹ̀ pé, “Ẹ kó àwọn òkúta díẹ̀ jọ.” Wọ́n sì kó òkúta náà jọ bí òkìtì wọ́n sì jẹun níbẹ̀.
And Jacob said to his brethren, Gather stones; and they took stones, and made a heap: and they ate there upon the heap.
47 Labani sì pe orúkọ rẹ̀ ní Jegari-Sahaduta, ṣùgbọ́n Jakọbu pè é ni Galeedi.
And Laban called it Jegar-sahadutha: but Jacob called it Galeed:
48 Labani sì wí pé, “Òkìtì yìí jẹ́ ẹ̀rí láàrín èmi àti ìwọ ní òní.” Ìdí nìyí tí a fi pe orúkọ rẹ̀ ni Galeedi.
And Laban said, This heap [is] a witness between me and thee this day. Therefore was the name of it called Galeed:
49 Ó tún pè é ni Mispa nítorí, ó wí pé, “Kí Olúwa kí ó máa ṣọ́ èmi àti ìwọ nígbà tí a bá yà kúrò lọ́dọ̀ ara wa tán.
And Mizpah; for he said, The LORD watch between me and thee, when we are absent one from another.
50 Bí o bá fìyà jẹ àwọn ọmọbìnrin mi, tàbí tí o fẹ́ aya mìíràn yàtọ̀ sí wọn, rántí pé, Ọlọ́run ń bẹ láàrín wa bí ẹlẹ́rìí bí ẹnikẹ́ni kò tilẹ̀ sí.”
If thou shalt afflict my daughters, or if thou shalt take [other] wives besides my daughters; no man [is] with us; See, God [is] witness betwixt me and thee.
51 Labani tún sọ síwájú fún Jakọbu pé, “Òkìtì àti ọ̀wọ̀n tí mo gbé kalẹ̀ láàrín èmi àti ìwọ yìí,
And Laban said to Jacob, Behold this heap, and behold [this] pillar, which I have cast betwixt me and thee;

This heap [be] witness, and [this] pillar [be] witness, that I will not pass over this heap to thee, and that thou shalt not pass over this heap and this pillar to me, for harm.
53 Ǹjẹ́ kí Ọlọ́run Abrahamu àti Ọlọ́run Nahori, àti Ọlọ́run baba wọn ṣe ìdájọ́ láàrín wa.” Jakọbu sì fi ẹ̀rù Isaaki baba rẹ̀ búra.
The God of Abraham, and the God of Nahor, the God of their father, judge betwixt us. And Jacob swore by the fear of his father Isaac.
54 Jakọbu sì rú ẹbọ níbẹ̀ ni orí òkè, ó sì pe àwọn ẹbí rẹ̀ láti jẹun. Lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí wọ́n ti jẹun, ibẹ̀ náà ni wọ́n sùn ní ọjọ́ náà.
Then Jacob offered sacrifice upon the mount, and called his brethren to eat bread: and they ate bread, and tarried all night in the mount.
55 Ní kùtùkùtù òwúrọ̀ ọjọ́ kejì, Labani fi ẹnu ko àwọn ọmọ ọmọ rẹ̀ lẹ́nu àti àwọn ọmọbìnrin rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú, ó sì súre fún wọn. Labani sì padà lọ sí ilé.
And early in the morning Laban arose, and kissed his sons and his daughters, and blessed them: and Laban departed, and returned to his place.
