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.”
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 Jacob el akilenak pac lah Laban el tia sifilpa kulang oana meet ah.
and Jacob seeth the face of Laban, and lo, it is not with him as heretofore.
3 Na LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel, “Folokla nu yen sin papa tomom ac nu yurin sou lom. Nga ac fah wi kom.”
And Jehovah saith unto Jacob, 'Turn back unto the land of thy fathers, and to thy kindred, and I am with thee.'
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.
And Jacob sendeth and calleth for Rachel and for Leah to the field unto his flock;
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.
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 Komtal kewa etu na lah nga orekma nu sin papa tomomtal ah ke kuiyuk nufon.
and ye — ye have known that with all my power I have served your father,
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.
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.
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.
'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 God El eisla u in kosro liki papa tomomtal ac use nutik.”
and God taketh away the substance of your father, and doth give to me.
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.
'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 Na lipufan lun God el kaskas nu sik in mweme sac ac fahk, ‘Jacob!’ Ac nga fahk, ‘Nga.’
and the messenger of God saith unto me in the dream, Jacob, and I say, Here [am] I.
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.
'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 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.’”
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 Rachel ac Leah topkol Jacob ac fahk, “Wangin ma lula kut ac usrui sin papa tumasr.
And Rachel answereth — Leah also — and saith to him, 'Have we yet a portion and inheritance in the house of our father?
15 El orekut oana mwetsac uh. El kukakinkutla, ac inge el sisla nufon mani ma moulyang nu sel kacsr ah.
have we not been reckoned strangers to him? for he hath sold us, and he also utterly consumeth our money;
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.”
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 Ouinge Jacob el tuyak, ac srakang tulik natul ac mutan kial nu fin camel uh,
And Jacob riseth, and lifteth up his sons and his wives on the camels,
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.
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 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.
And Laban hath gone to shear his flock, and Rachel stealeth the teraphim which her father hath;
20 Jacob el sulallal nu sel Laban ac tia akkalemye nu sel lah el ac som lukel.
and Jacob deceiveth the heart of Laban the Aramaean, because he hath not declared to him that he is fleeing;
21 El us ma nukewa lal ac sulaklak na mukuiyak som. El tupalla Infacl Euphrates ac tulanya infulan eol in acn Gilead.
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 Len tolu toko, fwackyang nu sel Laban lah Jacob el kaingla.
And it is told to Laban on the third day that Jacob hath fled,
23 Laban el us mwet lal welul ac ukwal Jacob ke len itkosr, nwe ke el sonol infulan eol in Gilead.
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 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.”
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 Laban el ukwal Jacob nwe sonol infulan eol in Gilead, yen Jacob el aktuktuk we. Laban ac mwet lal elos oayapa aktuktuk we.
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 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?
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 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.
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 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!
and hast not suffered me to kiss my sons and my daughters? — now thou hast acted foolishly in doing [so];
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.
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 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?”
'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 el topuk, “Nga tuh sangeng, mweyen nga nunku mu kom ac eisla acn nutum inge likiyu.
And Jacob answereth and saith to Laban, 'Because I was afraid, for I said, Lest thou take violently away thy daughters from me;
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.
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 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.
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 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.
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 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.
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 Na Jacob el kasrkusrakak ac siyuk sel Laban, “Mea nga oru koluk? Ma sap su nga kunausla ku kom ukweyume nwe inse?
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 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.
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 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.
'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 Pacl nukewa ma kosro lemnak uh uniya soko inmasrlon sheep nutum uh, nga tia us tuku nu ye motom kom in liye, a nga sifacna aolla ke sheep nutik. Kom sap ngan akfalye kutena ma su pusrla ke len ku ke fong.
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 Pacl puspis nga keok ke fulen len ac ohu in fong. Nga tia ku in motul.
I have been [thus]: in the day consumed me hath drought, and frost by night, and wander doth my sleep from mine eyes.
41 Pwana ingan ma nga pulakin ke lusen yac longoul nga muta yurum. Nga orekma yac singoul akosr in eis acn luo nutum, ac yac onkosr nu ke un kosro nutik inge. Ne ouinge, a kom ikil molin orekma luk pacl singoul.
'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 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.”
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 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,
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 nga akola in oru sie wuleang inmasrlok kom. Lela kut in orala sie ma in akesmakinye kut ke wuleang se inge.
and now, come, let us make a covenant, I and thou, and it hath been for a witness between me and thee.'
45 Ouinge Jacob el eis eot lulap se ac tulokunak tuh in sie mwe esmakin.
And Jacob taketh a stone, and lifteth it up [for] a standing pillar;
46 El fahk nu sin mwet lal in orani kutu eot ac elosak. Na elos mongoi sisken yol in eot sac.
and Jacob saith to his brethren, 'Gather stones,' and they take stones, and make a heap; and they eat there on the heap;
47 Laban el sang inen yol in eot se inge Jegar Sahadutha, a Jacob el pangon Galeed.
and Laban calleth it Jegar-Sahadutha; and Jacob hath called it Galeed.
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.
And Laban saith, 'This heap [is] witness between me and thee to-day;' therefore hath he called its name Galeed;
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.
Mizpah also, for he said, 'Jehovah doth watch between me and thee, for we are hidden one from another;
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.
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 Pa inge eot ma nga elosak ac eot lulap se mwe esmakin inmasrlok kom.
And Laban saith to Jacob, 'Lo, this heap, and lo, the standing pillar which I have cast between me and thee;
52 Yol se inge ac eot in esmakin se inge kewa ma in akesmakinye kut. Nga fah tia aliki yol se inge in mweuni kom ac kom fah tia pac alukela ku aliki eot in esmakin se inge in mweuniyu.
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 God lal Abraham ac God lal Nahor fah aksuwosye inmasrlosr.” Na Jacob el wulela na ku Inen God su Isaac, papa tumal, el alu nu se, lah el fah liyaung na wuleang se inge.
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 El uniya kosro soko, ac sang in mwe kisa fin eol uh, ac el pangoneni mwet lal elos in mongo. Tukun elos mongo tari, elos mongla fin eol uh ke fong sac.
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 Toangna in lotu tok ah, Laban el wilkas nu sin acn luo natul ac ngok mutaltal ac tulik natulos, na folokla nu yen sel.
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.
