Genesisy 31
1 Jinanji’e ty enta’ o ana-dahi’ i Labaneo, nanao ty hoe, Finao’ Iakòbe ze fonga fanañan-drae’ay; le ty varan-drae’ay ty nampañefoefo aze.
And he heard the words of Laban's sons, saying, Jacob has taken away all that was our father's, and of what was our father's he has acquired all this glory.
2 Ie niisa’ Iakòbe ty vinta’ i Labàne le naheo’e te tsy niatrefa’e manahake te taolo.
And Jacob saw the countenance of Laban, and behold, it was not toward him as previously.
3 Aa le hoe t’Iehovà am’ Iakòbe, Mibaliha mb’an-tanen-droae’o mb’aman-drolongo’o mb’eo fa indrezako.
And Jehovah said to Jacob, Return into the land of thy fathers, and to thy kindred; and I will be with thee.
4 Aa le nampihitrife’e an-koike t’i Rahkele naho i Leae t’ie homb’ am-piandrazañe mb’am-pirai-lia’e mb’eo.
And Jacob sent and called Rachel and Leah to the fields to his flock,
5 Le nanoa’e ty hoe, Treako ty vintan-drae’areo te tsy iatrefa’e manahake taolo, fe mañimb’ ahy t’i Andrianañaharen-draeko.
and said to them, I see your father's countenance, that it is not toward me as previously; but the God of my father has been with me.
6 Fohi’areo t’ie nitoroñ’ an-drae’areo an-kaozarako iaby,
And you know that with all my power I have served your father.
7 fe nifañahian-drae’areo naho novae’e im-polo o tambekoo, f’ie tsy nimetean’ Añahare hijoy ahy.
And your father has mocked me, and has changed my wages ten times; but God suffered him not to hurt me.
8 Ie nanao ty hoe: O varevareo ro tambe’o, le songa niterake varevare o hare’eo, aa ie nanao ty hoe, O tanteharañeo ro tambe’o. Le hene nampipoke tanteharañe o hareo.
If he said thus; The speckled shall be thy hire, then all the flocks bore speckled; and if he said thus: The ringstraked shall be thy hire, then all the flocks bore ringstraked.
9 Aa le sininton’ Añahare aman-drae’areo o hare’eo vaho natolo’e ahy.
And God has taken away the cattle of your father, and given [them] to me.
10 Teo te indraik’ amy sam-pisaheañey le nañinofy raho naho niandra vaho nahatrea te hene tanteharañe ndra varevare ndra poake o oselahy nitongoa amo mpirai-liao.
And it came to pass at the time of the ardour of the flocks, that I lifted up mine eyes, and saw in a dream, and behold, the rams that leaped upon the flocks were ringstraked, speckled, and spotted.
11 Le hoe t’i anjelin’ Añahare amako ama’ nofy, O Iakòbe, vaho natoiko ty hoe, Intoy raho.
And the Angel of God said to me in a dream, Jacob! And I said, Here am I.
12 Le hoe re, Ampiandrao fihaino vaho mahaoniña te songa tanteharañe ndra varevare ndra poake ty oselahy misahe o hareo, amy te nitreako iaby ze nanoe’ i Labàne ama’o.
And he said, Lift up now thine eyes, and see: all the rams that leap upon the flock are ringstraked, speckled, and spotted; for I have seen all that Laban does to thee.
13 Zaho i Andrianañahare’ i Beteley, i nañoriza’o i vatolahiy naho nifanta’oy. Miongaha arè, engao ty toetse toy vaho mimpolia mb’an-tanen-dongo’o añe.
I am the God of Bethel, where thou anointedst the pillar, where thou vowedst a vow to me. Now arise, depart out of this land, and return to the land of thy kindred.
14 Aa le hoe ty natoi’ i Rahkele naho i Leae, Mbe aman’ anjara ndra lova añ’anjomban-drae’ay hao zahay?
And Rachel and Leah answered and said to him, Is there yet any portion or inheritance for us in our father's house?
15 Tsy mone atao’e te ambahiny kanao naleta’e? mbore nabotse’e iaby o lafitihi’aio.
Are we not reckoned of him strangers? for he has sold us, and has even constantly devoured our money.
16 Toe anay naho a o keleia’aio ze fonga hanaña’e nasintan’ Añahare aman-drae’ay; aa le ano ze tsinaran’ Añahare ama’o.
For all the wealth that God has taken from our father is ours and our children's; and now whatever God has said to thee do.
17 Niongak’ amy zao t’Iakòbe naho nampiningire’e an-drameva o vali’eo naho o ana’eo,
And Jacob rose up, and set his sons and his wives upon camels,
18 vaho niroahe’e mb’eo ze hene hare’e naho o vara fa natonto’eo, o hanaña’e naho hare niazo’e e Padan’ arameo, vaho nitehafe’e mb’aman-drae’e Ietsake an-tane Kanàne añe.
and carried away all his cattle, and all his property that he had acquired — the cattle of his possessions that he had acquired in Padan-Aram, to go to Isaac his father, into the land of Canaan.
19 Aa ie fa nimb’am-pañitsifan’ añondri’e mb’eo t’i Labàne, le kinizo’ i Rahkele o ndraharen’ anjomba an-drae’eo.
And Laban had gone to shear his sheep. And Rachel stole the teraphim that [belonged] to her father.
20 Toe nifañahie’ Iakòbe t’i Labàne t’ie tsy nitalily ama’e te nienga,
And Jacob deceived Laban the Syrian, in that he did not tell him that he fled.
21 ie nimotiotse mb’eo naho ze ama’e iaby. Niongake re nitsake i sakay, le nitandrifie’e mb’am-bohibohi’ i Gilade mb’eo ty lahara’e.
And he fled with all that he had; and he rose up and passed over the river, and set his face [toward] mount Gilead.
22 Natalily amy Labàne amy andro fahateloy te nibioñe t’Iakòbe.
And it was told Laban on the third day that Jacob had fled.
23 Aa le nendese’e o longo’eo naho nihoridañe’e fito andro vaho nahatratse aze am-bohibohi’ i Gilade eo.
And he took his brethren with him, and pursued after him seven days' journey, and overtook him on mount Gilead.
24 Le niheo amy Labàne nte-Arame ami’ty nofy t’i Andrianañahare nanao ama’e ty hoe, Mitomira, tsy hisaontsy am’ Iakòbe ndra ty soa ndra ty raty.
And God came to Laban the Syrian in a dream by night, and said to him, Take care thou speak not to Jacob either good or bad.
25 Aa le nitra’ i Labàne t’Iakòbe. Fa nañoren-kibohotse am-bohitse ey t’Iakòbe, le nitobe am-bohibohi’ i Gilade ao t’i Labàne mirolongo.
And Laban came up with Jacob; and Jacob had pitched his tent on the mountain; Laban also with his brethren pitched on mount Gilead.
26 Hoe t’i Labàne am’ Iakòbe, Ino o nanoe’oo? Ie niponiora’o am-pamañahiañe vaho namaoke o anak’ ampelakoo hoe mpirohy nitsepahem-pibara.
And Laban said to Jacob, What hast thou done, that thou hast deceived me, and hast carried away my daughters as captives of war?
27 Ino ty nibioña’o am-pañahy naho nivokake amako tsy nitalily, ie ho nampionjoneko an-drebeke naho sabo vaho kantsàñe miharo kararàke.
Why didst thou flee away covertly, and steal away from me, and didst not tell me, that I might have conducted thee with mirth and with songs, with tambour and with harp;
28 Tsy nimea’o ty hañondrohako o ana-dahiko naho anak’ ampelakoo? Toe nanao hagegean-drehe te nanoa’o.
and hast not suffered me to kiss my sons and my daughters? Now thou hast acted foolishly.
29 An-tañako ty haozarañe hañoho-doza ama’ areo fe nitsara amako ami’ty nofy aniankale t’i Andrianañaharen-drae’o, ty hoe, Mitomira tsy hivolañe ndra soa ndra raty am’ Iakòbe.
It would be in the power of my hand to do you hurt; but the God of your father spoke to me last night, saying, Take care that thou speak not to Jacob either good or bad.
30 Ie amy zao, ndra te tsy nete tsy nionjom-b’eo rehe ami’ty hamaniña’o ty anjomban-drae’o, manao akore te nikamere’o o ndraharekoo?
And now that thou must needs be gone, because thou greatly longedst after thy father's house, why hast thou stolen my gods?
31 Le hoe ty natoi’ Iakobe amy Labane, Toe nihemban-draho, nataoko ho nitavane’o amako o anak’ ampela’oo.
And Jacob answered and said to Laban, I was afraid; for I said, Lest thou shouldest take by force thy daughters from me.
32 Fe tsy ho veloñe ze isa’o mitañe o ndrahare’oo. Itsikaraho añatrefa’ o longon-tikañeo le endeso ze fanaña’o amako. Toe tsy nifohi’ Iakòbe t’ie kinizo’ i Rahkele.
With whomsoever thou findest thy gods, he shall not live. Before our brethren discern what is thine with me, and take [it] to thee. But Jacob did not know that Rachel had stolen them.
33 Aa le nimoake an-kiboho’ Iakòbe ao t’i Labàne, naho an-kiboho’ i Leae, vaho an-kiboho’ i mpitoro-ampela roe rey fe tsy nahaisake. Niakatse an-kiboho’ i Leae naho nizilik’ an-kiboho’ i Rahkele.
And Laban went into Jacob's tent, and into Leah's tent, and into the two handmaids' tents, and found nothing; and he went out of Leah's tent, and entered into Rachel's tent.
34 Ie amy zao fa rinambe’ i Rahkele o ndrahareo naho napo’e ambanen-pitobohañe an-drameva ao vaho nitoboha’e. Nitsitsife’ i Labàne kodaba i kibohotsey fe tsy nahaoniñe.
Now Rachel had taken the teraphim and put them under the camel's saddle; and she sat upon them. And Laban explored all the tent, but found nothing.
35 Le hoe re aman-drae’e, Ehe tsy ho viñera’ ty talèko te tsy imeteako ongake añatrefa’o, fa miampela. Aa le nikodebe re fe tsy nitendreke o samposampon-drahao.
And she said to her father, Let it not be an occasion of anger in the eyes of my lord that I cannot rise up before thee, for it is with me after the manner of women. And he searched carefully, but did not find the teraphim.
36 Niviñetse amy zao t’Iakòbe le nendaha’e t’i Labàne; hoe t’Iakòbe amy Labàne. Ino o fiolàko? Ino o hakeoko nañoridaña’o ahy an-kelokeo?
And Jacob was angry, and he disputed with Laban. And Jacob answered and said to Laban, What is my fault, what my sin, that thou hast so hotly pursued after me?
37 Aa ndra te nitsitsife’o tsoeke o haraokoo, ino amo haraon’ anjomba’oo ty niisa’o? Apoho añatrefa’ o longokoo naho o longo’oo etoañe, hizaka’ iareo añivon-tika roe.
Whereas thou hast explored all my baggage, what hast thou found of all thy household stuff? Set [it] here before my brethren and thy brethren, and let them decide between us both.
38 Fa roapolo taoñe henanekeo ty nitraofako ama’o, le lia’e tsy nañary anake o añondri-vave’o naho o ose-vave’oo vaho tsy nihinanako o añondri-lahin-dia-rai’oo.
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 I have not eaten.
39 Tsy nendeseko ama’o ze nirimitem-biby fa nivavèko i hamotsoañey; pinai’o an-tañako ndra ty kinametse antoandro ndra ty kinizo haleñe.
What was torn I have not brought to thee; I had to bear the loss of it: of my hand hast thou required it, [whether] stolen by day or stolen by night.
40 Ie nabotse’ ty fipisañañe te handro, nangoratsake te haleñe vaho nibiòña’ ty roro o masokoo.
Thus it was with me: in the day the heat consumed me, and the frost by night; and my sleep fled from mine eyes.
41 Inay i roapolo taoñe naha-mpiàmañ’ anjomba’o ahy rezay; nitoroñe azo folo-tao-efats’ amby hahazoako i anak’ ampela’o roe rey, vaho enen-taoñe o hare’oo, mbore novae’o im-polo i tambekoy.
I have been these twenty years in thy house: I have served thee fourteen years for thy two daughters, and six years for thy flock; and thou hast changed my wages ten times.
42 Aa naho tsy nimpiamako t’i Andrianañaharen-draeko, t’i Andrianañahare’ i Avrahame, naho i nampañeveñe Ietsàkey le toe ho nampolie’o mañomaño. Nahavazoho o hasotriakoo naho o fitoloñan-tañakoo t’i Andrianañahare vaho nañendak’ azo aniankale.
Had not the God of my father, the God of Abraham, and the fear of Isaac, been with me, it is certain thou wouldest have sent me away now empty. God has looked upon my affliction and the labour of my hands, and has judged last night.
43 Aa le hoe ty natoi’ i Labàne am’ Iakòbe: Anak’ ampelako o anak’ ampelao, anadahiko o anadahio, hàreko o hareo vaho hene ahiko naho a i anakampelako rey ze isa’o. Fe ino ty hanoeko anito amo anak’ampelakoo, naho amo ana-dahy nisamahe’eo?
And Laban answered and said to Jacob, The daughters are my daughters, and the sons are my sons, and the flock is my flock, and all that thou seest is mine; but as for my daughters, what can I do this day to them, or to their sons whom they have brought forth?
44 Mbetoa arè hifañina, zaho naho ihe; le ie ty ho valolombeloñe añivon-tikañe.
And now, come, let us make a covenant, I and thou; and let it be a witness between me and thee.
45 Aa le nandrambe vato t’Iakòbe vaho natroa’e ho ajiba.
And Jacob took a stone, and set it up [for] a pillar.
46 Le hoe t’Iakòbe aman-drolongo’e, Amorio vato, le nandrambe vato iereo naho navotre, vaho nikama amy votrem-batoy.
And Jacob said to his brethren, Gather stones. And they took stones, and made a heap, and ate there upon the heap.
47 Nanoe’ i Labàne ty hoe Iegare-Sahadotà, f’ie natao Iakòbe Galede.
And Laban called it Jegar-sahadutha, and Jacob called it Galeed.
48 Hoe t’i Labàne, Valolombeloñe añivoko naho ihe androany ty votre toy. Aa le natao Galede ty añara’e,
And Laban said, This heap is a witness between me and thee this day. Therefore was the name of it called Galeed,
49 naho Mizpa, fa hoe re, Hivazoho añivo’o naho zaho t’Iehovà naho tsy amy ila’ey ty raike.
— and Mizpah; for he said, Let Jehovah watch between me and thee, when we shall be hidden one from another:
50 Naho sarerahe’o o anak’ ampelakoo, ndra mañenga valy mandikoatse o anakoo, itika tsy amam-pañalañalañe, tiahio te valolombeloñe añivon-tika t’i Andrianañahare.
if thou shouldest afflict my daughters, or if thou shouldest take wives besides my daughters, — no man is with us; see, God is witness between me and thee!
51 Le hoe t’i Labàne am’Iakòbe, Hehe ty votre tia naho ty ajiba najadoko añivo’o naho zaho.
And Laban said to Jacob, Behold this heap, and behold the pillar which I have set up between me and thee:
52 Valolombeloñe ty votre tia, naho valolombeloñe ty ajiba toy te tsy handilarako mb’ ama’o mb’eo, vaho tsy ho lika’o ty votre toy ndra ty ajiba toy homb’amako, hañeloke.
[let] this heap be witness, and the pillar a witness, that neither I pass this heap [to go] to thee, nor thou pass this heap and this pillar [to come] to me, for harm.
53 T’i Andrianañahare’ i Avrahame, naho t’i Andrianañahare’ i Nakore, t’i Andrianañaharen-droae’ iareo ty hizaka añivon-tika. Aa le nifanta amy Fañeveñan-drae’e Ietsàke t’Iakòbe,
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 le nañenga soroñe ambohitse eo t’Iakòbe naho kinoi’e o longo’eo hikama, le nikama vaho nialeñe amy vohitsey.
And Jacob offered a sacrifice upon the mountain, and invited his brethren to eat bread: and they ate bread, and lodged on the mountain.
55 Nañaleñaleñe t’i Labàne t’ie nitroatse naho norofa’e o ana’eo naho o anak’ampela’eo vaho nitata’e. Niavotse amy zao t’i Labane nimpoly mb’ama’e añe.
And Laban rose early in the morning, and kissed his sons and his daughters, and blessed them; and Laban went and returned to his place.
