Genesis 31
1 Someone told Jacob that Laban’s sons were complaining and saying, “Jacob has become very rich by taking everything [HYP] that belonged to our father.”
Wuxuu maqlay hadalkii Laabaan wiilashiisii, iyagoo leh, Yacquub baa wixii aabbeheen oo dhan wada qaatay, oo xoolahan oo dhan wuxuu ku helay wixii aabbeheen.
2 And Jacob noticed that Laban was not acting friendly toward him as he had done before.
Yacquubna wuxuu fiiriyey wejigii Laabaan, oo wuxuu arkay inuusan sidii hore u ahayn.
3 Then Yahweh said to Jacob, “Go back to your country and your relatives, and I will help you there.”
Rabbiguna wuxuu Yacquub ku yidhi, Ku noqo dalkii aabbahaa iyo xigaalkaaga, oo anna waan kula jiri doonaa.
4 So Jacob sent a message to Rachel and Leah, telling them to come out to the pastures where his flocks of sheep and goats were.
Yacquubna wuxuu u cid diray oo u yeedhay Raaxeel iyo Lee'ah inay yimaadaan berrinkii adhigiisu joogay,
5 When they arrived, he said to them, “I see that your father does not act friendly toward me as he did previously. But God, whom my father worshiped, has helped me.
oo wuxuu iyagii ku yidhi, Waxaan arkay wejigii aabbihiin inuusan sidii hore ii ahayn, laakiinse Ilaaha aabbahay baa ila jiray.
6 You two know that I have worked very hard for your father,
Idinkuna waad og tihiin inaan aabbihiin xooggayga oo dhan ugu adeegay.
7 but many times [HYP] he has cheated me by decreasing my wages. But God has not allowed him to harm me.
Laakiin aabbihiin wuu i khiyaaneeyey, oo toban goor buu mushahaaradaydii beddelay; Ilaahse uma oggolaan inuu wax i yeelo.
8 When Laban said, ‘The speckled animals are the ones that I will give you to be your wages,’ then all the animals gave birth to young ones that were speckled. When he changed and said, ‘The ones that have black and white stripes on them will be your wages,’ then all the animals gave birth to young ones that were striped.
Hadduu yidhi, Kuwa dhibicyada lahu waxay noqon doonaan mushahaaradaada, adhiga oo dhammu wax dhibicyo leh bay dhaleen; hadduu yidhina, Kuwa xariijimaha lahu waxay noqon doonaan mushahaaradaada, adhiga oo dhammu wax xariijimo leh bay dhaleen.
9 In that way, God has taken away the livestock that belonged to your father and has given them to me.
Sidaasaa Ilaah aabbihiin xoolihiisii uga qaaday, oo uu aniga ii siiyey.
10 “One time, when the animals were mating, I had a dream. In my dream I [looked up and was surprised to] see that some of the male goats that were mating with the female goats had black and white stripes on them, some were speckled, and some were spotted.
Wakhtigii adhigii rimay ayaan indhahayga kor u taagay, oo aan riyo ku arkay orgidii adhiga ku boodday inay wada lahaayeen xariijimo, iyo dhibicyo iyo barbaro.
11 An angel who was sent by God said to me in the dream, ‘Jacob!’ I replied, ‘I am here!’
Malaa'igtii Ilaahna waxay igu tidhi intaan riyoonayay, Yacquubow. Oo anna waxaan idhi, Waa i kan.
12 He said to me, ‘Look up and you will see that all the male goats that are mating have black and white stripes on them, or are speckled or spotted. This is happening because I have seen all that Laban has done to you.
Oo waxay tidhi, Haatan indhahaaga kor u taag, oo arag, orgida adhiga ku boodda oo dhammu waxay wada leeyihiin xariijimo iyo dhibicyo iyo barbaro, maxaa yeelay, waxaan wada arkay waxa Laabaan kugu sameeyo oo dhan.
13 I am God who appeared to you at Bethel, where you set up a stone to show that the place was holy, and you poured [olive] oil on the stone and made a solemn promise to me. So now leave this land immediately, and return to the land where you were born.’”
Waxaan ahay Ilaaha Beytel, meeshii aad tiirka ku subagtay, oo aad nidarka iigu nidartay. Haddaba kac, oo dalkan ka bax, oo ku noqo dalkii aad ku dhalatay.
14 Rachel and Leah replied, “Our father will not give us anything more when he dies [RHQ].
Markaasay Raaxeel iyo Lee'ah u jawaabeen isagii oo ku yidhaahdeen, Weli ma qayb baa guriga aabbahayo noogu hadhay amase dhaxal?
15 He treats us as though we were foreigners [RHQ]! [Your working for him all these years was like a payment] that you gave him as a price for us, but we will not inherit any of that money that he got as a price for us. He has spent it all!
Miyaannan xaggiisa ka xisaabnayn shisheeye? Waayo, wuu na iibiyey, oo weliba lacagtayadiina wuu cunay.
16 Surely all of the wealth that God took away from our father belongs to us and to our children. So do whatever God has told you to do!”
Waayo, kulli maalkii Ilaah ka qaaday aabbahayo waxaa leh annaga iyo carruurtayada; haddaba yeel wixii Ilaah kugu yidhi.
17 Then Jacob put his children and his wives on camels.
Markaasuu Yacquub kacay, carruurtiisii iyo naagihiisiina wuxuu fuushiiyey awrtii;
18 He made all his livestock go ahead of him. Besides the livestock, he took along all the other things that he had acquired while living in Paddan-Aram. And they prepared to return to his father Isaac, in the Canaan region.
wuuna la tegey xoolihiisii oo dhan, iyo alaabadii uu urursaday, kuwaas oo ahaa xoolihii uu helay, oo uu ku ururiyey Fadan Araam, inuu tago xaggii aabbihiis Isxaaq iyo ilaa dalkii Kancaan.
19 Before they left, while Laban was shearing his sheep, Rachel stole the [small wooden] idols [that were in her father’s tent].
Laabaanna wuxuu ku maqnaa inuu idihiisa dhogorta ka soo xiirto; kolkaasay Raaxeel xadday sanamyadii aabbeheed lahaa.
20 Furthermore, Jacob deceived Laban, who belonged to the Aram people-group, by not telling him that they were planning to leave.
Markaasaa Yacquub si qarsoon uga tegey Laabaankii reer Suuriya oo aan ogayn, umana uu sheegin inuu cararayo.
21 So Jacob and his family fled with all their possessions, and they crossed the Euphrates River, and then started traveling south toward the hilly Gilead region.
Oo sidaasuu ula cararay wixii uu haystay oo dhan, oo intuu kacay, ayuu webigii ka gudbay, oo wejigiisii ku toosiyey buurtii Gilecaad.
22 On the third day after they left, someone told Laban that Jacob and his family had left.
Maalintii saddexaad baa Laabaan loo sheegay in Yacquub cararay.
23 So he took some of his relatives with him and started to pursue Jacob. They continued walking for seven days.
Markaasuu walaalihiis kaxaystay, oo wuxuu raacdaynayay toddoba maalinsocod, wuxuuna ku gaadhay buurtii Gilecaad.
24 Then God appeared to Laban in a dream at night, and said to him, “When you catch up to Jacob, be sure that you do not say anything at all [HYP] to him in an angry manner!”
Markaasaa Ilaah riyo habeennimo ugu yimid Laabaankii reer Suuriya, oo ku yidhi, Iska jir oo Yacquub xumaan iyo wanaag toona ha kula hadlin.
25 The next day, by the time Laban caught up with Jacob, Jacob and his household had set up their tents in the hilly Gilead region. So Laban and his relatives set up their tents there, too.
Laabaanna wuu soo gaadhay Yacquub. Haddaba Yacquub teendhadiisii wuxuu ka dhistay buurta; Laabaanna walaalihiis buu kala dhistay buurtii Gilecaad.
26 Then Laban went to Jacob and said to him, “Why have you done this? You have deceived me by carrying away my daughters as though you had captured them in a war [MTY]!
Laabaanna wuxuu Yacquub ku yidhi, Waa maxay waxan aad samaysay, oo maxaad si qarsoon iiga soo tagtay anoo aan ogayn, oo aad gabdhahayga ula soo carartay sidii iyagoo ah maxaabiis seef lagu soo dhacay?
27 Why did you run away and deceive me? Why did you not tell me that you were going to leave, so that we could have rejoiced and sung while people played music on tambourines and harps before I said ‘goodbye’ to you?
Maxaad qarsoodiga ugu soo carartay, oo aad si qarsoon iiga soo tagtay? Oo maxaad iigu sheegi weyday, si aan kuugu soo ambabbixiyo rayrayn iyo gabayo iyo daf iyo kataarad?
28 (You did not even let me kiss my grandchildren and my daughters goodbye before they left!/Why did you not allow me to kiss my grandchildren and daughters goodbye before they left?) [RHQ] What you have done was foolish!
Oo maxaad iigu oggolaan weyday inaan dhunkado wiilashayda iyo gabdhahayga? De taas nacasnimaad u yeeshay.
29 My relatives and I have the power to harm you, but last night the God whom your father worships said to me in a dream, ‘Be sure that you do not say anything at all to Jacob in an angry way.’
De xoog aan wax kugu yeelo waan leeyahay, laakiinse Ilaaha aabbahaa baa xalay ila hadlay, oo wuxuu igu yidhi, Iska jir oo Yacquub ha kula hadlin xumaan iyo wanaag toona.
30 Now, I know you have left because you long to go back home. But why did you steal my [wooden] idols?”
Oo haatan waad tagtay, maxaa yeelay, aad baad ugu hilowday gurigii aabbahaa, laakiinse maxaad ilaahyadayda iiga soo xadday?
31 Jacob replied to Laban, saying, “I did not tell you that we were planning to leave, because I was afraid. I thought that [if I told you], you would forcefully take your daughters away from me.
Yacquubna waa u jawaabay oo wuxuu Laabaan ku yidhi, Maxaa yeelay, waan cabsaday; waayo, waxaan is-idhi, Wuu kaa xoogi doonaa gabdhihiisa.
32 But if you find anyone here who has your wooden idols, we will execute that person. While our relatives are watching, search for yourself to see if there is anything that belongs to you that is here with me. If you find anything, you can take it!” When Jacob said that, he did not know that Rachel had stolen the wooden idols.
Qofkii aad ilaahyadaadii ka hesho waa inuusan noolaan. Walaalahayo hortooda ku fiiri wixii aan kaa haysto, oo iska qaado. Waayo, Yacquub ma uu ogayn inay Raaxeel soo xadday.
33 Laban went into Jacob’s tent, and then into Leah’s tent, and then into the tents of the two female slaves and searched for the idols, but he did not find them. After he left their tents, he entered Rachel’s tent.
Laabaanna wuxuu galay teendhadii Yacquub, iyo teendhadii Lee'ah, iyo teendhadii labada addoommood, laakiinse ma uu helin. Oo intuu ka baxay teendhadii Lee'ah ayuu galay teendhadii Raaxeel.
34 But Rachel had previously taken the idols and put them in the saddle of a camel, and she was sitting on the saddle. So when Laban searched all over for them inside Rachel’s tent, he did not find them.
Raaxeelna way qaadday sanamyadii, oo waxay gelisay heeryadii awrta, wayna ku fadhiisatay. Laabaanna wuu ka wada baadhay teendhadii oo dhan, mana uu helin.
35 Rachel said to her father, “Do not be angry with me, sir, but I cannot get up in your presence [to show respect for you], because I am having my monthly menstrual period. [EUP]” So when Laban searched some more, he did not find the [wooden] idols.
Oo waxay aabbeheed ku tidhi, Sayidkaygiiyow, ha u cadhoon inaanan istaagi karin, waayo, caadadii dumarku heli jiray baan qabaa. Isna wuu baadhay, laakiinse sanamyadii ma uu helin.
36 Then Jacob became angry. He rebuked Laban, saying, “What crime did I commit? For what sin that I committed have you pursued me?
Yacquubna wuu cadhooday, oo Laabaan wuu la murmay; Yacquubna wuu u jawaabay oo wuxuu Laabaan ku yidhi, Waa maxay xadgudubkaygu? Waa maxay dembigayga aad aawadiis aad iigu soo raacdaysatay?
37 Now you have searched through all my possessions, and what did you find from all these possessions that belongs to you? Put it here in front of my relatives and your relatives, so that they can decide who is right, you or me!
Waxaad baadhay alaabtayda oo dhan, ee maxaad ka heshay oo ah alaabtii gurigaaga? Halkan soo hor dhig walaalahayga iyo walaalahaaga, inay labadeenna inoo kala gar naqaan.
38 I was with you for 20 years. In all that time, your sheep and goats have (not miscarried/always given birth to animals safely). I have not [killed and] eaten any rams from your flocks.
Labaatan sannadood baan kula joogay; laxahaaga iyo riyahaaguna dhicis ma dhalin, wananka idahaagiina ma aan cunin.
39 When one of your animals was attacked and mauled/killed by a wild animal, I did not bring it to you. I replaced the dead animal with a living one of my own animals. Whenever one of your animals was stolen, during the day or during the night, you demanded that I replace it with one of my own animals.
Kuwii dugaagu ka cunayna kuuma aan keenin; laakiinse anaa kuu magdhabay, anaad i weyddiisan jirtay, ha ahaadeen wixii maalin lagaa xado ama wixii habeen lagaa xado ee.
40 I suffered from the heat during the day and from the cold at night. I was often not even able to sleep [PRS]!
Maalintii kulayl baa i dili jiray, habeenkiina dhaxan; hurdadiina waa iga tagtay. Oo sidaasaan ahaan jiray.
41 I lived in your household for 20 years. I worked for you for 14 years to buy your two daughters, and for six more years to buy some of your sheep and goats. During that time, you changed and reduced my wages many times [HYP].
Labaatan sannadood baan gurigaaga joogay; afar iyo toban sannadood waxaan kuugu shaqeeyey labadaada gabdhood aawadood, lix sannadoodna adhigaaga aawadiis. Mushahaaradaydiina waxaad beddeshay toban goor.
42 If God, the one whom my grandfather Abraham worshiped and before whom my father Isaac trembled in fear, had not been with me and helped me, you would have sent me away (with nothing in my hands/owning nothing)! But God saw how much I was suffering and how hard I was working, so last night he told you that what you have done to me was wrong.”
Ilaaha aabbahay, oo ah Ilaaha Ibraahim, iyo kan Isxaaq ka cabsado, haddii uusan ila jirin, hubaal haatan waxaad i diri lahayd anoo faro madhan. Ilaah wuxuu arkay dhibaatadaydii iyo hawshii gacmahayga, kolkaasuu xalay ku canaantay.
43 Laban replied, “These two women are my daughters, and their children are my grandchildren, and the animals are my animals. Everything you see here is mine [HYP]! But what can I do today to keep my daughters or the children they have given birth to [RHQ]?
Laabaanna wuu u jawaabay oo wuxuu Yacquub ku yidhi, Gabdhuhu waa gabdhahayga, carruurtuna waa carruurtayda, adhiguna waa adhigayga, oo waxa aad aragto oo dhammuna waa waxayga, haddaba maxaan maanta ku samayn karaa gabdhahaygan, ama carruurtooda ay dhaleen?
44 I cannot do anything in order to keep them, so hey, we should make a peace agreement, you and I, and do something that will remind us about our agreement.”
Haddaba kaalay, aan aniga iyo adigu axdi dhigannee, hana noqdo markhaati ina dhex yaal aniga iyo adiga.
45 So Jacob took a [large] stone and set it on its end.
Markaasaa Yacquub dhagax soo qaaday, oo sidii tiir u qotomiyey.
46 Then Jacob said to his relatives, “You also gather some stones.” So they gathered some rocks and put them in a heap, and they ate some food there near the heap.
Yacquubna wuxuu walaalihiis ku yidhi, Dhagaxyo soo ururiya; kolkaasay dhagaxyo soo gureen, oo meel taalleeyeen; kolkaasay taallada agteedii wax ku cuneen.
47 Laban gave the heap the Aramaic name Jegar-Sahadutha, [which means ‘rock-pile to remind us’, ] but Jacob gave the rock-pile the Hebrew name Galeed, [which has the same meaning].
Laabaanna wuxuu meeshaas u bixiyey Yegar Sahaduta; Yacquubse wuxuu u bixiyey Galceed.
48 Laban said to Jacob, “This pile of rocks we have put here today will help us to remember our agreement.” That is why Jacob called it Galeed.
Laabaanna wuxuu yidhi, Maanta taalladanu waa markhaati ina dhex yaal aniga iyo adiga. Sidaas daraaddeed waxaa magaceedii loo bixiyey Galceed, iyo Misfaah,
49 They also named the place Mizpah, [which sounds like the Hebrew word that means ‘watchtower’, ] because Laban said, “We will ask Yahweh to watch you and me while we are separated from each other, [so that we do not try to harm each other].
waayo, wuxuu yidhi, Rabbigu ha dhawro aniga iyo adiga dhexdeenna markaynu kala maqan nahay.
50 If you mistreat my daughters, or if you take other women to be your wives, even if no one tells me about it, don’t forget that God sees what you and I are doing!”
Haddaad gabdhahayga dhibtid, ama aad naago kale gabdhahayga la guursatid, ninna inalama joogo, balse ogow, Ilaah baa markhaati dhexdeenna ka ah aniga iyo adiga.
51 Laban also said to Jacob, “You see this large stone and this pile of rocks that we have set up to be between us.
Laabaanna wuxuu Yacquub ku yidhi, Bal eeg taalladan, oo bal fiiri tiirka aan ina dhex dhigay aniga iyo adiga.
52 Both this pile of rocks and this large stone will remind us, that I will not go past these rocks to harm you, and you will not go past these rocks to harm me.
Taalladanu markaati ha ka noqoto, tiirkuna markhaati ha ka noqdo, inaanan taalladan kuugu soo dhaafayn inaan wax ku yeelo, adna aadan taalladan iyo tiirkan iigu soo dhaafayn inaad wax i yeeshid.
53 We will ask the God whom [your grandfather] Abraham and [his father] Nahor worshiped to punish [MTY] either one of us, [if we harm the other one].” So Jacob solemnly promised to do what they said in their peace agreement. And he asked God, the one before whom his father Isaac trembled, to listen to what they promised.
Kan ah Ilaaha Ibraahim, iyo Ilaaha Naaxoor, iyo Ilaaha aabbahood, ha ina kala xukumo innaga. Yacquubna wuxuu ku dhaartay Kan aabbihiis Isxaaq ka cabsado.
54 He offered a sacrifice to God there in the hilly area, and he invited his relatives to eat with him. After they had eaten, they slept there that night.
Yacquubna allabari buu buurtii ku bixiyey, walaalihiisna wuxuu ugu yeedhay inay wax cunaan; cuntadiina way cuneen, habeenkii oo dhanna buurtay joogeen.
55 The next morning Laban kissed his grandchildren and his daughters [goodbye] and asked God to bless them. Then he [and his men] left them and returned home.
Laabaanna aroor hore ayuu kacay, wiilashiisii iyo gabdhihiisiina wuu dhunkaday, wuuna u duceeyey; markaasuu Laabaan tegey, oo ku noqday meeshiisii.
