And he heareth the words of Laban's sons, saying, 'Jacob hath taken all that our father hath; yea, from that which our father hath, he hath made all this honour;'
2 Chujong le Jacob in Laban maiso aven ahile alung lhailou lungthim chom agel jong ahe chen tan ahi.
and Jacob seeth the face of Laban, and lo, it is not with him as heretofore.

and saith to them, 'I am beholding your father's face — that it is not towards me as heretofore, and the God of my father hath been with me,
6 Nangnin jong nahe lhon nai, katha nei sun kajo chan a napa lhon ding na toh ka tonge.
and ye — ye have known that with all my power I have served your father,

and your father hath played upon me, and hath changed my hire ten times; and God hath not suffered him to do evil with me.

'If he say thus: The speckled are thy hire, then bare all the flock speckled ones; and if he say thus: The ring-streaked are thy hire, then bare all the flock ring-streaked;
9 Hitia hi Pa Pathen in napa gancha ho jouse alah a keima eipehsoh ahitai.
and God taketh away the substance of your father, and doth give to me.
10 Chuin phat chomkhat jou kelngoite kijang mat lai in jan mang khat ka neiyin, ka khodah in ahile kelpi chunga kal doh kelchal ho chu apol hole adup ho aki timat piu ka mui.
'And it cometh to pass at the time of the flock conceiving, that I lift up mine eyes and see in a dream, and lo, the he-goats, which are going up on the flock, [are] ring-streaked, speckled, and grisled;
11 Chuin hitia mang kanei petin Pakai vantil khat in eihin houpin Jacob eihin tin kenjong “Hoijo hikoma kaum e,” kati.
and the messenger of God saith unto me in the dream, Jacob, and I say, Here [am] I.

'And He saith, Lift up, I pray thee, thine eyes, and see — all the he-goats which are going up on the flock [are] ring-streaked, speckled, and grisled, for I have seen all that Laban is doing to thee;
13 Keima na Pathen Bethel, muna song khom thao nanu a na kigah na Pathen chu kahi, tun kipat doh in hiche gam hi dalhan lang na penna gam langa kile kit tan.
I [am] the God of Bethel where thou hast anointed a standing pillar, where thou hast vowed a vow to me; now, arise, go out from this land, and turn back unto the land of thy birth.'
14 Chuphat in Rachel le Leah in adonbut in, “Keinin imacha boina kanei lhonpoi; kapa lhon neile gou chanvou ka chan lhon ding um beh ham?”
And Rachel answereth — Leah also — and saith to him, 'Have we yet a portion and inheritance in the house of our father?
15 Aman dalpam mi a eigel lhon hilou ham? Ajeh chu aman eijoh doh lhon a keini kichoh na sum jouse jong eisuh mang peh tauve.
have we not been reckoned strangers to him? for he hath sold us, and he also utterly consumeth our money;
16 Chule nei le gou jouse Pathen in kapa lhona kon a alah mang peh ho jouse chu eiho le ichate ho a ahi bouve. Hijeh chun tun Pathen in najah a asei jouse chu ipi hi jongle bol jeng in,” ati lhon tai.
for all the wealth which God hath taken away from our father, it [is] ours, and our children's; and now, all that God hath said unto thee — do.'
17 Hichun Jacob akipat doh in ajite le achate jouse chu Sangan chunga atoudoh sah soh kei tan;
And Jacob riseth, and lifteth up his sons and his wives on the camels,
18 Chule agancha ho jouse amasang lamuva ahoiyin Padan-Ram gam'a anei agou jouse aki suhtup in Canaan gam'a apa Isaac henga che dingin aumtai.
and leadeth all his cattle, and all his substance which he hath acquired, the cattle of his getting, which he hath acquired in Padan-Aram, to go unto Isaac his father, to the land of Canaan.
19 Chuin Laban chu kelngoi mulvou dinga akon doh phat'in Rachel in apa insung semthu pathen chu ana kiguh mang tai.
And Laban hath gone to shear his flock, and Rachel stealeth the teraphim which her father hath;
20 Jacob'in jong Laban Syrian mipa chu alhem lhan in, ajam doh dingu jong aseipeh pon ahi.
and Jacob deceiveth the heart of Laban the Aramaean, because he hath not declared to him that he is fleeing;
21 Hichun Jacob in anei agou jouse akipoh in Eupharate vadung apal galkai in Gilead thing lhang lam ahin jontai.
and he fleeth, he and all that he hath, and riseth, and passeth over the River, and setteth his face [toward] the mount of Gilead.
22 Ahin ni thum jouvin Jacob ajam mang tai tithu chu Laban ahin seipeh un;
And it is told to Laban on the third day that Jacob hath fled,
23 Chuin Laban in asopi ho cheng akou khom in, Jacob chu ahin nung del tauvin ahile, nisagi lhin ni chun Gilead lhang gamsunga ahin juilut tan ahi.
and he taketh his brethren with him, and pursueth after him a journey of seven days, and overtaketh him in the mount of Gilead.
24 Hinlah Pathen in Laban Syrean mipa chu jan in ana kimu pin hitin aseiye, “Kichih thei jin Jacob chu imacha nalo theilou ding ahi,” ati.
And God cometh in unto Laban the Aramaean in a dream of the night, and saith to him, 'Take heed to thyself lest thou speak with Jacob from good unto evil.'
25 Hichun Laban'in Jacob chu ahin phatan, chule Jacob in thing-lhang lah a chun apon buh akison tauvin, chuin Laban le a U anaoten jong Gelead thinglhang a Jacob to kigam lhat louvin aponbuh'u akison tauve.
And Laban overtaketh Jacob; and Jacob hath fixed his tent in the mount; and Laban with his brethren have fixed [theirs] in the mount of Gilead.
26 Chuin Laban in Jacob jah'a aseiye, “Ibola hi tobanga hi neijou lhep hitam ati, chule iti dana ka chanu teni jong gal a sohchang ho banga na bol jeng ham?
And Laban saith to Jacob, 'What hast thou done that thou dost deceive my heart, and lead away my daughters as captives of the sword?
27 Ibola guhthim cha a najam mang uham? Ibol'a neijou lhep ham ati, chule nache ding iti dan a neihet sah lou beh ham? Neina hetsah le chun thupitah a kilhahna ankong le la a ngei tah tah kisan tin, tumging to kithoa kivai lhah ta dinga ati.
Why hast thou hidden thyself to flee, and deceivest me, and hast not declared to me, and I send thee away with joy and with songs, with tabret and with harp,
28 Nathil bol hohi ngolna in na dimset'e, ka chanu teni cha katute jong kabeng chop man tapon, kilhahna jong kana bol thei tapoi! ati.
and hast not suffered me to kiss my sons and my daughters? — now thou hast acted foolishly in doing [so];
29 Tua hi nangma ka suhbei thei nahi, Hinlah napu napate Pathen in jan hi nilhah in eina kimuto pin gihna jong eineiyin Jacob chu na suhboi theilou ding ahi eiti!
my hand is to God to do evil with you, but the God of your father yesternight hath spoken unto me, saying, Take heed to thyself from speaking with Jacob from good unto evil.
30 Nangma lunggel na in lam a nache ding na thanop na chu ka hethem lheh'e, kham thei jong na hipoi, napa insung miho toh kimu to kal nanga lel jong kahe nai, Hinlah ibola ka Pathen houna doiphung chu naguh ham? ati.
'And now, thou hast certainly gone, because thou hast been very desirous for the house of thy father; why hast thou stolen my gods?'
31 Jacob in adonbut in, “Keiman nangma kana ging lheh in ahi, ajeh chu nang ma in, nachanu teho chu namphu a nei lah peh ding ham tia kana gel ahi.
And Jacob answereth and saith to Laban, 'Because I was afraid, for I said, Lest thou take violently away thy daughters from me;
32 Amavang nadoi bom vang chu ahile nang man hol in lang namu doh thei leh namu na michu koi hile ahinkho subei jeng tan ati, chule nangma thil ho jong keima sopiho in anala kha aumle kanung peh ding nahi; Jacob in vang Rachel in analah chu anahet lou ahi.
with whomsoever thou findest thy gods — he doth not live; before our brethren discern for thyself what [is] with me, and take to thyself:' and Jacob hath not known that Rachel hath stolen them.
33 Laban chu Jacob ponbuh a ache masa pen in doibom hol in, aban'in Leah kom ah, hiche jou chun Leah soh teni komah achen Hinlah imacha amudoh pon, achaina in Rachel pon buh a alut in ahi.
And Laban goeth into the tent of Jacob, and into the tent of Leah, and into the tent of the two handmaidens, and hath not found; and he goeth out from the tent of Leah, and goeth into the tent of Rachel.
34 Rachel in apa insung doibom chu ana ladoh in Sangan pho kah a chu ana sel'a chule achunga chu ama ana tou ahi, hichun Laban in ponbuh sung aning akah aphet vang'in imacha amudoh tapon ahi.
And Rachel hath taken the teraphim, and putteth them in the furniture of the camel, and sitteth upon them; and Laban feeleth all the tent, and hath not found;
35 Ama nun apa komma asei tai, “Lungsettah in nei ngaidam in ka Pakai keima numei hina lhinna kanei jin kadin theilou ding ahi,” Laban vang ahol chu atang dehpon amavang insung doibom chu amudoh pon ahi.
and she saith unto her father, 'Let it not be displeasing in the eyes of my lord that I am not able to rise at thy presence, for the way of women [is] on me;' and he searcheth, and hath not found the teraphim.
36 Hichun Jacob hatah in ahung lunghang tan Laban apupa jah'a asei tan ahi, “Keima ipi ka guchat na ka jonna umham atitan, chule ipi mong kabol khel a hichan geiya hi ka nung neihin del a keima migucha banga nei bol hitam?
And it is displeasing to Jacob, and he striveth with Laban; and Jacob answereth and saith to Laban, 'What [is] my transgression? what my sin, that thou hast burned after me?
37 Nang man kanei kathil koina jouse naphet in aning akah geiyin, twin neivet sah in ipi na khol doh ham nang thil, hinpo doh in sopi ule nao ho masang laitah ahin amahon eini kah lah a thutanna neimaiyu hen ati.
for thou hast felt all my vessels: what hast thou found of all the vessels of thy house? set here before my brethren, and thy brethren, and they decide between us both.
38 Nangma koma kum som ni na gancha ho kana vettup peh in, na gancha ho kelngoi ahin na kelcha ho ahin imacha boina ana umpon hiche kum hijat kana vettup sunga chun kelngoi khat jong kana kilah khapoi.
'These twenty years I [am] with thee: thy ewes and thy she-goats have not miscarried, and the rams of thy flock I have not eaten;
39 Keiman gamsa in, gancha ho athasa jong kahin polut khapon, athi amang ho jong keima nikho tha to suhto din kana boljin, gancha ho sun hileh jan hileh amang ho jouse chu keima lhalo toh suhto din neikah pehjin ahi.
the torn I have not brought in unto thee — I, I repay it — from my hand thou dost seek it; I have been deceived by day, and I have been deceived by night;
40 Hiche hi keima dinmun ana hi, Hitipi chun sun teng nisan eihal vampai gon, jan tengle dap kathoh jin, kamit tenin la kei eimut na him him amupha pon ahi.
I have been [thus]: in the day consumed me hath drought, and frost by night, and wander doth my sleep from mine eyes.
41 Hitobang achu kum somni nangma insunga kana kiman chah ahi. keiman kum som le kum li nangma insunga lhacha in ka na pang in, na chanu teni lona in kum gup ka na tohbe in gancha ho lona in chule kana toh man somvei tobang neikhel peh in ahi.
'This [is] to me twenty years in thy house: I have served thee fourteen years for thy two daughters, and six years for thy flock; and thou changest my hire ten times;
42 Kapate Pathen, Abraham Pathen, kapa Isaac ginpa chun eipanpi lou hile tua hi nangman khut keohel tah bah a neina solmang ding ahitai. Pathen in ka gentheina le kakhut tah a katoh gimna hi amua jan nilhah a chu na gihsal ahiye,” ati.
unless the God of my father, the God of Abraham, and the Fear of Isaac, had been for me, surely now empty thou hadst sent me away; mine affliction and the labour of my hands hath God seen, and reproveth yesternight.'
43 Hichun Laban in hitin Jacob adonbut in, “Hiche numei hohi ka chanu ahin, hiche chapang hojong kachate katute ahi, chule gancha ho jouse jong abonna keima gancha ahi. Chule ipi hitale namu phah chan hi aboncha keiya jeng ahi cheh nai. Amavang keiman tua hi ka chanute chule achate ho chunga ipi kabol ding hitam ati.
And Laban answereth and saith unto Jacob, 'The daughters [are] my daughters, and the sons my sons, and the flock my flock, and all that thou art seeing [is] mine; and to my daughters — what do I to these to-day, or to their sons whom they have born?
44 Hijeh chun hung in eini kikah a kitepna nei hite hichun eini eikan khom cheh lhon ding ahi.”
and now, come, let us make a covenant, I and thou, and it hath been for a witness between me and thee.'
45 Hichun Jacob'in hetjing nading in song khom khat aphut dohtai.
And Jacob taketh a stone, and lifteth it up [for] a standing pillar;
46 Hichun Jacob'in asopi ho lah a aseiyin, “Songho hin chom khom un,” ati, amahon song chu khat chunga khat asethop un, hichun Jacob le Laban song kise thop komma atou lhon in kitepna ankong chu anekhom lhon tan ahi.
and Jacob saith to his brethren, 'Gather stones,' and they take stones, and make a heap; and they eat there on the heap;
47 Songlhuh kise chu Laban in Jegar-sahadutha asah-in, hiche ma ma chu Jacob'in Galeed asah-e.
and Laban calleth it Jegar-Sahadutha; and Jacob hath called it Galeed.
48 Hichun Laban in, “Tuni nikhoa hiche song lhuh hi kei le nang kah a sakhia panga ahi tai,” tia, hiche jeh chun amin jong Galeed asah in ahi.
And Laban saith, 'This heap [is] witness between me and thee to-day;' therefore hath he called its name Galeed;
49 Hiche mun jong hi Mizpah akiti tai, aman aseiyin, “Ajeh chu nangma le keima jong khonung teng jong leh gamla tah a umjongleh hen Pathen in ei umpi jing lhon hen.”
Mizpah also, for he said, 'Jehovah doth watch between me and thee, for we are hidden one from another;
50 Ka chanute ho nahin suh genthei ja numei dang ho jia nahin kipuiya ahile, koima chan muhih jongle abonchan Pathen in amusoh keiye, Pathen hi nangle kei kikah a kitepna a hiche thua hi pang jing ding ahi.
if thou afflict my daughters, or take wives beside my daughters — there is no man with us — see, God [is] witness between me and thee.'
51 Hiche song athopma kise ho hi Jacob in Laban jah ah, “Vejing in kei le nang kah a kihet themna hijing ding ahi tai.
And Laban saith to Jacob, 'Lo, this heap, and lo, the standing pillar which I have cast between me and thee;
52 Hiche song kise thop hile songphu hi sakhia a pang ahin, ken jong nangma suse dinga hiche hi kahin khokhel lou hel ding, nang in jong keima suse dinga hiche hi nahin khokhel louhel ding ahi.
this heap [is] witness, and the standing pillar [is] witness, that I do not pass over this heap unto thee, and that thou dost not pass over this heap and this standing pillar unto me — for evil;
53 Abraham Pathen, Nahor Pathen chule amani pa-Pathen chu eini kah a thutan ding ahi tai,” ati. Hijeh chun Jacob jong apa Isaac ginpa min akihahsel tai.
the God of Abraham and the God of Nahor, doth judge between us — the God of their father,' and Jacob sweareth by the Fear of his father Isaac.
54 Hichun Jacob in hiche molchunga chun Pathen henga maicham asem in kitepna ki hetthem na ankong jong asem in, an neh anei jou u-chun hiche jan machun molchunga chun ageh tauve.
And Jacob sacrificeth a sacrifice in the mount, and calleth to his brethren to eat bread, and they eat bread, and lodge in the mount;
55 Laban ajing chun matah in athoudoh in achanute ho le atute ho jouse abonchan achop soh keiyin, chule abonchauvin phatthei aboh soh keiyin, hichun ama a inlam ma aki nungle kit tai.
and Laban riseth early in the morning, and kisseth his sons and his daughters, and blesseth them; and Laban goeth on, and turneth back to his place.
