BSB
BSB:
Now Jacob heard that Laban’s sons were saying, “Jacob has taken away all that belonged to our father and built all this wealth at our father’s expense.”
2
EKA
Jekob sebe kahn re eljini ni Leban jolo a ne wuku wuku, anv ebyaange.
BSB
BSB:
And Jacob saw from the countenance of Laban that his attitude toward him had changed.

Jehova kehm tongo Jekob re, <<Feere song go ndi a nso, go nnahb enya, m bahke jolo a na.>>
BSB
BSB:
Then the LORD said to Jacob, “Go back to the land of your fathers and to your kindred, and I will be with you.”

BSB
BSB:
and he told them, “I can see from your father’s countenance that his attitude toward me has changed; but the God of my father has been with me.
6
EKA
Wahn kpˈkahne re me n lim eltum ka nso ewahne a eko eko ejame,

You know that I have served your father with all my strength.

And although he has cheated me and changed my wages ten times, God has not allowed him to harm me.

BSB
BSB:
If he said, ‘The speckled will be your wages,’ then the whole flock bore speckled offspring. If he said, ‘The streaked will be your wages,’ then the whole flock bore streaked offspring.
9
EKA
Owo wahnge Esowo ma taare nso ewahne atohkondi feere a nya ka-m.
BSB
BSB:
Thus God has taken away your father’s livestock and given them to me.

When the flocks were breeding, I saw in a dream that the streaked, spotted, and speckled males were mating with the females.

BSB:
In that dream the angel of God said to me, ‘Jacob!’ And I replied, ‘Here I am.’
12
EKA
Enjel nyio kehm bungu re,<<Seenge wo nyehn re, afahmbul kpee nya kpˈkuumu akal, bo jehko bahke bele anyono, bo jehko bel adebbe, bo jehko bel a adale, tibre me n nyehn nsol kpee nyi Leban jo lim-a.
BSB
BSB:
‘Look up,’ he said, ‘and see that all the males that are mating with the flock are streaked, spotted, or speckled; for I have seen all that Laban has done to you.

I am the God of Bethel, where you anointed the pillar and made a solemn vow to Me. Now get up, leave this land at once, and return to your native land.’”

And Rachel and Leah replied, “Do we have any portion or inheritance left in our father’s house?
15
EKA
Anv, á wahr kpehme ko ana ajahmjahma? Saam go elgungu no á ma-r gungu, yeb tob li kpee ji bo ka go egahre esi.
BSB
BSB:
Are we not regarded by him as outsiders? Not only has he sold us, but he has certainly squandered what was paid for us.

BSB:
Surely all the wealth that God has taken away from our father belongs to us and to our children. So do whatever God has told you.”

Then Jacob got up and put his children and his wives on camels,

BSB
BSB:
and he drove all his livestock before him, along with all the possessions he had acquired in Paddan-aram, to go to his father Isaac in the land in Canaan.
19
EKA
Eji Leban tahme re á song kpud ejoro ebe anyar, Rasel v alokelom etahk nde.
BSB
BSB:
Now while Laban was out shearing his sheep, Rachel stole her father’s household idols.
20
EKA
Fvfo Jekob nehme Leban nnea Aram eji á ki-e tong re, á kpˈtahme.
BSB
BSB:
Moreover, Jacob deceived Laban the Aramean by not telling him that he was running away.

Jekob bee a nsol kpee nyi á bele no, song siiri aya Yufrat, asongo go ejahbe ewong ji Gilied.

BSB:
On the third day Laban was informed that Jacob had fled.

Leban kehm rodo abonanyehn ebe, bo jo kam Jekob go nfung na esehma song bob-e go ejahbe ewong ji Gilied.
BSB
BSB:
So he took his relatives with him, pursued Jacob for seven days, and overtook him in the hill country of Gilead.
24
EKA
Esowo kehm ba kpiri Leban nne no lohng go Aram go nlem atv, kehm-e tongo re, <<Kunu ekpu, ka tiki bung ejum ajehng ajehng bada Jekob, afi jolo ji kpˈnobo, afi ji kpˈsabe.>>
BSB
BSB:
But that night God came to Laban the Aramean in a dream and warned him, “Be careful not to say anything to Jacob, either good or bad.”
25
EKA
Jekob tohko si ebehre eje go ejahbe ewong ji Gilied, Leban kehm ba kpir-e. Leban a abonanyehn kehm tob ba si abehre nya bo o.
BSB
BSB:
Now Jacob had pitched his tent in the hill country of Gilead when Laban overtook him, and Laban and his relatives camped there as well.
26
EKA
Owo Leban kehm tongo Jekob re, <<Jenji wahnge a ma-m lim ana me? A ma-m nehm, wob kpu abon ebame, ana nne bobo ane go ebta ba bum eju.
BSB
BSB:
Then Laban said to Jacob, “What have you done? You have deceived me and carried off my daughters like captives of war!
27
EKA
Nˈnan a kehm weele na be fere nehm-m, nˈnan a ki-m tong eji n lˈtuma go eyebatahng, a ekahn ase ji bo jol jo kub asoongo, a akpasake toon-a.
BSB
BSB:
Why did you run away secretly and deceive me, without even telling me? I would have sent you away with joy and singing, with tambourines and harps.
28
EKA
Jol a nongem re me n bingi abon abon ebame nnyo, a yefono abon ebame ba nkal, fere tong bo re wahn songo. Woblim egboongo ejum.
BSB
BSB:
But you did not even let me kiss my grandchildren and my daughters goodbye. Now you have done a foolish thing.

BSB
BSB:
I have power to do you great harm, but last night the God of your father said to me, ‘Be careful not to say anything to Jacob, either good or bad.’
30
EKA
Anv wob tahm eja, tibre ma-a kor re wo feere go etahk nso, jenji wahnge a kehm vohko asowo enyame?
BSB
BSB:
Now you have gone off because you long for your father’s house. But why have you stolen my gods?”
31
EKA
Jekob kehm faange Leban re, <<N jo fˈfahl, tibre n tiri re a bahk-m taare abon eba ba nkal go eko.
BSB
BSB:
“I was afraid,” Jacob answered, “for I thought you would take your daughters from me by force.
32
EKA
A lˈfere nyehn nne awohng awohng no rodo asowo enya a bahke kpoko. Go ellong nnahb enyame, kpur antahng wo nyehng joare ejum eja ajehng ajehng jia aname, lˈfere jol ano rod. Jekob kahnem re Rasel wo v asowo nyao.
BSB
BSB:
If you find your gods with anyone here, he shall not live! In the presence of our relatives, see for yourself if anything is yours, and take it back.” For Jacob did not know that Rachel had stolen the idols.
33
EKA
Leban kehm yele ebehre ji Jekob, a ji Lia, go ji aloketum abal bao ba nkal, ejumjum á nyˈnehm. Eji á lohngo go ebehre ji Lia, á kehm song yel goji Rasel.
BSB
BSB:
So Laban went into Jacob’s tent, then Leah’s tent, and then the tents of the two maidservants, but he found nothing. Then he left Leah’s tent and entered Rachel’s tent.
34
EKA
Ngare nyio Rasel ebrod asowo etahk nde kunu go njahm nyi ekamel rod ejum bo kpo koongo ekamel go njahm bulu ji tv. Leban feede ejum ajehng ajehng o ebehre kpee á nyehnem ejumjum.
BSB
BSB:
Now Rachel had taken Laban’s household idols, put them in the saddlebag of her camel, and was sitting on them. And Laban searched everything in the tent but found nothing.
35
EKA
Rasel kehm tongo nde re, <<Atahng ki-a rak nsoo re m maam mehl yiimi go ega esamahr, me ga me n gbo alung.>> Leban feede kpee á tikem nyehn asowo etahk eje.
BSB
BSB:
Rachel said to her father, “Sir, do not be angry that I cannot stand up before you; for I am having my period.” So Laban searched but could not find the household idols.
36
EKA
Jekob atahng kehm-e rake, á rod Leban song kak elam, kehm bahbe Leban re, <<Ebi ajii m ma lim? Abiafem anyaa m ma lim, nya wahnge a kp-m bimi abake?
BSB
BSB:
Then Jacob became incensed and challenged Laban. “What is my crime?” he said. “For what sin of mine have you so hotly pursued me?
37
EKA
Anv eji a feede go egama nsol, jenji a ma nyehn ji lohng go ega etahk? Lohng aji a esamahr nnahb enyame, a nnahb enyame, bo lam-r, me a wahra na.
BSB
BSB:
You have searched all my goods! Have you found anything that belongs to you? Put it here before my brothers and yours, that they may judge between the two of us.
38
EKA
Me n jol a na go nnya na eltahl, ejoro eba, a ebul eba, anyehng anyehng tikem fumu, jol n tikem li nkom anyehng anyehng go ellong atohkondi enya.
BSB
BSB:
I have been with you for twenty years now. Your sheep and goats have not miscarried, nor have I eaten the rams of your flock.
39
EKA
N tikem ko nnyam enya anyehng anyehng ba a nyi re, ebi nnyam me-e jaake, me wo jo nyehn erem bio antahn, anv a kpˈsebe re me n gal-a ji bo v a njul afii bo v atv.
BSB
BSB:
I did not bring you anything torn by wild beasts; I bore the loss myself. And you demanded payment from me for what was stolen by day or night.
40
EKA
Ji jo jol aname ji a, njul jo ya-m ngara njul, alohk jo fil-m ngare atv, ellu n joom lal.
BSB
BSB:
As it was, the heat consumed me by day and the frost by night, and sleep fled from my eyes.
41
EKA
Ana wo jolo aname go ejum nnya eltahl nyi n jolo go ega etahk. N limi eltum ka-a go ewuba nnya eni tib abon eba ba nkal, fere kpe ko nnya erakera jo kpur atohkondi enya, á fere yaange eltuuru ename nkpel na ewubu.
BSB
BSB:
Thus for twenty years I have served in your household—fourteen years for your two daughters and six years for your flocks—and you have changed my wages ten times!
42
EKA
Ki li re Esowo bi nsoo, Esowo bio bi Ebraham, ye ji Aisik jo fahl-e ki jol aname, a jol-m lohko tum n kehnge abo abo. Wo Esowo ebnyehn ana jo riid-m, fere jo nyehn ji n jo ko abo enyame lim, atv ma nyaane Esowo kak-a erehke.>>
BSB
BSB:
If the God of my father, the God of Abraham and the Fear of Isaac, had not been with me, surely by now you would have sent me away empty-handed. But God has seen my affliction and the toil of my hands, and last night He rendered judgment.”
43
EKA
Leban kehm faange Jekob re, <<Anebkal baa abon ebame ba nkal ba, abon baa, abon abon ebame ba, atohkondi nyaa, atohkondi enyame nya. Nya a kpˈnyehne a kpee a nyame nya, fono anv jenji m bahke limi lela a abon ebame ba nkal, afi abon ba bo ma jel?
BSB
BSB:
But Laban answered Jacob, “These daughters are my daughters, these sons are my sons, and these flocks are my flocks! Everything you see is mine! Yet what can I do today about these daughters of mine or the children they have borne?
44
EKA
Anv wahr lim egbanngalung, jol ejum ntianse ka wo, a me.>>
BSB
BSB:
Come now, let us make a covenant, you and I, and let it serve as a witness between you and me.”
45
EKA
Owo Jekob kehm rodo eltal lo ana ego.
BSB
BSB:
So Jacob picked out a stone and set it up as a pillar,
46
EKA
Jekob kehm tongo nnahb enye re, <<Kpu-n atal ba a nya, bo kehm solo atal ba luk ebim, bo ji go nkpe ebim atal jo li nsol.
BSB
BSB:
and he said to his relatives, “Gather some stones.” So they took stones and made a mound, and there by the mound they ate.
47
EKA
Leban lungu edi jio re, Jegar Sahaduta, Jekob tob lungu edi jio re, Galed.
BSB
BSB:
Laban called it Jegar-sahadutha, and Jacob called it Galeed.
48
EKA
Leban kehm bungu re <<Ebim atal jia ebjol ntianse ka me a wo lela.>> Owo wahnge bo jo lung re Galed.
BSB
BSB:
Then Laban declared, “This mound is a witness between you and me this day.” Therefore the place was called Galeed.
49
EKA
Fvfo bo jo tob lungu re Mijipah, tibre á bungu re, Nong Jehova jo baab-r eji e ma yaame atemtem.
BSB
BSB:
It was also called Mizpah, because Laban said, “May the LORD keep watch between you and me when we are absent from each other.
50
EKA
A lˈfere sab abon ebame ba nkal go elfili, afii a lˈsong ko akal bandiki sehnge abon ebame baa ba nkal jol afi nnene jolem, buumu re Esowo bi li ntianse enya, a me.
BSB
BSB:
If you mistreat my daughters or take other wives, although no one is with us, remember that God is a witness between you and me.”
51
EKA
Leban tob tongo Jekob re, <<Nyehn ebim atal ga, tob nyehn eltal ga m ma lo ana ego ka wo a me.
BSB
BSB:
Laban also said to Jacob, “Here is the mound, and here is the pillar I have set up between you and me.
52
EKA
Ebim atal jia ji li ntianse, ego jia ji tob li ntianse re me nehm tiki siiri ebim atal jia rehng ega ejang ba lim-a ejum, re wo fvfo, a nehm siiri ebim atal jia a, a ego jia ba rehng ga egame ejang ba lim-m ejum.
BSB
BSB:
This mound is a witness, and this pillar is a witness, that I will not go past this mound to harm you, and you will not go past this mound and pillar to harm me.
53
EKA
Nong Esowo bi Ebraham, a Esowo bi Nahor, Esowo bio bi babnde ebo lam-r a wahra na.>> Owo Jekob kehm koko nwongo go mbing nyio nyi Esowo bio bi Aisik nde kpo fahl.
BSB
BSB:
May the God of Abraham and the God of Nahor, the God of their father, judge between us.” So Jacob swore by the Fear of his father Isaac.
54
EKA
Jekob limi njom o ejahbe ewong, fere tiingi nnahb enye re bo ba li nsol. Eji bo ba li nsol bo sa kang o atv mao.
BSB
BSB:
Then Jacob offered a sacrifice on the mountain and invited his relatives to eat a meal. And after they had eaten, they spent the night on the mountain.
55
EKA
Njahm efungfu, efungfu behre behre Leban kehm bingi abon abon ebe, a yefono abon ebe ba nkal fere fuulu bo, kehm feere kehnge.
BSB
BSB:
Early the next morning, Laban got up and kissed his grandchildren and daughters and blessed them. Then he left to return home.
