Genesi (تكوين) 31

SMITH VAN DYKE	NEW JERUSALEM
1 فسمع كلام بني لابان قائلين اخذ يعقوب كل ما كان لابينا. ومما لابينا صنع كل هذا المجد.	1 Jacob learned that Laban's sons were saying, 'Jacob has taken everything that belonged to our father;it is at our father's expense that he has acquired al this wealth,'
2 ونظر يعقوب وجه لابان واذا هو ليس معه كامس واول من امس.	2 and Jacob also saw that Laban's manner towards him was not as it had been in the past.
3 وقال الرب ليعقوب ارجع الى ارض آبائك والى عشيرتك. فاكون معك	3 Yahweh said to Jacob, 'Go back to the land of your ancestors, where you were born, and I shal bewith you.'
4 فارسل يعقوب ودعا راحيل وليئة الى الحقل الى غنمه.	4 So Jacob had Rachel and Leah cal ed to the fields where his flocks were,
5 وقال لهما انا ارى وجه ابيكما انه ليس نحوي كامس واول من امس. ولكن اله ابي كان معي.	5 and he said to them, 'I can see that your father's manner towards me is not as it was in the past, butthe God of my father has been with me.
6 وانتما تعلمان اني بكل قوتي خدمت اباكما.	6 You yourselves know that I have worked for your father with al my might,
7 واما ابوكما فغدر بي وغيّر اجرتي عشر مرات. لكن الله لم يسمح له ان يصنع بي شرا.	7 and that your father has tricked me, changing my wages ten times over, and yet God has not al owedhim to harm me.
8 ان قال هكذا. الرقط تكون اجرتك ولدت كل الغنم رقطا. وان قال هكذا. المخطّطة تكون اجرتك ولدت كل الغنم مخطّطة.	8 Whenever he said, "The spotted ones will be your wages," all the animals produced spotted young;whenever he said, "The striped ones wil be your wages," al the animals produced striped young.
9 فقد سلب الله مواشي ابيكما واعطاني.	9 Thus God has reclaimed your father's livestock and given it to me.
10 وحدث في وقت توحّم الغنم اني رفعت عينيّ ونظرت في حلم واذا الفحول الصاعدة على الغنم مخططة ورقطاء ومنمّرة.	10 Once, when the animals were on heat, I suddenly saw in a dream that the he-goats covering thefemales were striped or spotted or piebald.
11 وقال لي ملاك الله في الحلم يا يعقوب. فقلت هانذا.	11 In the dream the angel of God cal ed to me, "Jacob!" I said, "Here I am."
12 فقال ارفع عينيك وانظر. جميع الفحول الصاعدة على الغنم مخطّطة ورقطاء ومنمّرة. لاني قد رأيت كل ما يصنع بك لابان.	12 He said, "Now take note: al the he-goats covering the females are striped or spotted or piebald -- forI too have noted all the things that Laban has been doing to you,
13 انا اله بيت ايل حيث مسحت عمودا. حيث نذرت لي نذرا. الآن قم اخرج من هذه الارض وارجع الى ارض ميلادك	13 I am the God who appeared to you at Bethel, where you poured oil on a pillar and made a vow tome. On your feet, then, leave this country and return to the land of your birth." '
14 فاجابت راحيل وليئة وقالتا له ألنا ايضا نصيب وميراث في بيت ابينا.	14 In answer Rachel and Leah said to him, 'Are we stil likely to inherit anything from our father's estate?
15 ألم نحسب منه اجنبيتين. لانه باعنا وقد اكل ايضا ثمننا.	15 Does he not think of us as outsiders now? For not only has he sold us, but he has completelyswal owed up the money he got for us.
16 ان كل الغنى الذي سلبه الله من ابينا هو لنا ولاولادنا. فالآن كل ما قال لك الله افعل	16 Al the wealth that God has reclaimed from our father belonged to us and our children in any case.So do whatever God has told you.'
17 فقام يعقوب وحمل اولاده ونساءه على الجمال.	17 Forthwith, Jacob put his children and his wives on camels,
18 وساق كل مواشيه وجميع مقتناه الذي كان قد اقتنى. مواشي اقتنائه التي اقتنى في فدّان ارام. ليجيء الى اسحق ابيه الى ارض كنعان.	18 and drove off all his livestock -- with al the possessions he had acquired, the livestock belonging tohim which he had acquired in Paddan-Aram -- to go to his father Isaac in Canaan.
19 واما لابان فكان قد مضى ليجزّ غنمه. فسرقت راحيل اصنام ابيها.	19 Laban was away, shearing his sheep; Rachel in the meanwhile had appropriated the household idolsbelonging to her father,
20 وخدع يعقوب قلب لابان الارامي. اذ لم يخبره بانه هارب.	20 and Jacob had outwitted Laban the Aramaean so that he would not be forewarned of his flight.
21 فهرب هو وكل ما كان له وقام وعبر النهر وجعل وجهه نحو جبل جلعاد	21 Thus he got away with all he had. He was soon across the River and heading for Mount Gilead.
22 فأخبر لابان في اليوم الثالث بان يعقوب قد هرب.	22 Three days later Laban was told that Jacob had fled.
23 فأخذ اخوته معه وسعى وراءه مسيرة سبعة ايام. فادركه في جبل جلعاد.	23 Taking his brothers with him, he pursued him for seven days and overtook him at Mount Gilead.
24 وأتى الله الى لابان الارامي في حلم الليل. وقال له احترز من ان تكلم يعقوب بخير او شر.	24 But God appeared to Laban the Aramaean in a dream that night and said to him, 'On no account sayanything whatever to Jacob.'
25 فلحق لابان يعقوب ويعقوب قد ضرب خيمته في الجبل. فضرب لابان مع اخوته في جبل جلعاد	25 Laban caught up with Jacob, who had pitched his tent in the hil s; and Laban pitched camp on MountGilead.
26 وقال لابان ليعقوب ماذا فعلت وقد خدعت قلبي وسقت بناتي كسبايا السيف.	26 Laban said to Jacob, 'What do you mean by outwitting me and then carrying off my daughters likeprisoners of war?
27 لماذا هربت خفية وخدعتني ولم تخبرني حتى اشيعك بالفرح والاغاني بالدف والعود.	27 Why did you flee in secret, stealing away without letting me know, so that I could send you on yourway rejoicing, with songs and the music of tambourines and harps?
28 ولم تدعني اقبّل بني وبناتي. الآن بغباوة فعلت.	28 You did not even let me kiss my sons and daughters. You have behaved like a fool.
29 في قدرة يدي ان اصنع بكم شرا. ولكن اله ابيكم كلمني البارحة قائلا احترز من ان تكلم يعقوب بخير او شر.	29 It is in my power to harm you, but the God of your father said to me last night, "On no account sayanything whatever to Jacob."
30 والآن انت ذهبت لانك قد اشتقت الى بيت ابيك. ولكن لماذا سرقت آلهتي	30 Now it may be you real y went because you had such a longing for your father's house, but why didyou steal my gods?'
31 فاجاب يعقوب وقال للابان اني خفت لاني قلت لعلك تغتصب ابنتيك مني.	31 Jacob answered Laban, 'I was afraid, thinking you were going to snatch your daughters from me.
32 الذي تجد آلهتك معه لا يعيش. قدام اخوتنا انظر ماذا معي وخذه لنفسك. ولم يكن يعقوب يعلم ان راحيل سرقتها	32 But whoever is found in possession of your gods shall not remain alive. In the presence of ourbrothers, examine for yourself what I have, and take what is yours.' Now Jacob did not know that Rachel hadappropriated them.
33 فدخل لابان خباء يعقوب وخباء ليئة وخباء الجاريتين ولم يجد. وخرج من خباء ليئة ودخل خباء راحيل.	33 Laban went into Jacob's tent, and then into Leah's tent and the tent of the two slave-girls, but hefound nothing. He came out of Leah's tent and went into Rachel's.
34 وكانت راحيل قد اخذت الاصنام ووضعتها في حداجة الجمل وجلست عليها. فجسّ لابان كل الخباء ولم يجد.	34 Now Rachel had taken the household idols and put them inside a camel cushion, and was sitting onthem. Laban went through everything in the tent but found nothing.
35 وقالت لابيها لا يغتظ سيدي اني لا استطيع ان اقوم امامك لان عليّ عادة النساء. ففتّش ولم يجد الاصنام	35 Then Rachel said to her father, 'Do not look angry, my lord, because I cannot rise in your presence,for I am as women are from time to time.' Laban searched but did not find the idols.
36 فاغتاظ يعقوب وخاصم لابان واجاب يعقوب وقال للابان ما جرمي ما خطيتي حتى حميت ورائي.	36 Then Jacob lost his temper and took Laban to task. And Jacob said to Laban, 'What is my offence,what is my crime, for you to have hounded me like this?
37 انك جسست جميع اثاثي. ماذا وجدت من جميع اثاث بيتك. ضعه ههنا قدام اخوتي واخوتك. فلينصفوا بيننا الاثنين.	37 You have gone through al my belongings; have you found anything belonging to your household?Produce it here in the presence of my brothers and yours, and let them decide between the two of us.
38 الآن عشرين سنة انا معك. نعاجك وعنازك لم تسقط. وكباش غنمك لم آكل.	38 In al the twenty years I was under you, your ewes and your she-goats never miscarried, and I neverate rams from your flock.
39 فريسة لم احضر اليك. انا كنت اخسرها. من يدي كنت تطلبها. مسروقة النهار او مسروقة الليل.	39 Those mauled I never brought back to you, but bore the loss myself. You demanded compensationfrom me, whether the animal was stolen in daylight or at night.
40 كنت في النهار يأكلني الحرّ وفي الليل الجليد. وطار نومي من عينيّ.	40 In the daytime the heat devoured me, and frost at night; I never had a good night's sleep.
41 الآن لي عشرون سنة في بيتك. خدمتك اربع عشرة سنة بابنتيك وست سنين بغنمك. وقد غيّرت اجرتي عشر مرات.	41 It was like this for the twenty years I spent in your household. Fourteen years I slaved for you for your two daughters, and six years for your flock, since you changed my wages ten times over.
42 لولا ان اله ابي اله ابراهيم وهيبة اسحق كان معي لكنت الآن قد صرفتني فارغا. مشقّتي وتعب يديّ قد نظر الله فوبّخك البارحة	42 If the God of my father, the God of Abraham, the Kinsman of Isaac, had not been with me, you wouldhave sent me away empty-handed. But God saw my plight and my labours, and last night he deliveredjudgement.'
43 فاجاب لابان وقال ليعقوب البنات بناتي والبنون بنيّ والغنم غنمي وكل ما انت ترى فهو لي. فبناتي ماذا اصنع بهنّ اليوم او باولادهنّ الذين ولدن.	43 Laban replied to Jacob, 'These daughters are my daughters and these children are my children, thislivestock is my livestock: everything you see belongs to me. But what can I do today about my daughters here orabout the children they have borne?
44 فالآن هلم نقطع عهدا انا وانت. فيكون شاهدا بيني وبينك	44 So come, let us make a pact, you and me . . . , and let that serve as a witness between us.'
45 فأخذ يعقوب حجرا واوقفه عمودا.	45 Jacob then took a stone and set it up as a memorial.
46 وقال يعقوب لاخوته التقطوا حجارة. فاخذوا حجارة وعملوا رجمة واكلوا هناك على الرجمة.	46 Jacob said to his kinsmen, 'Col ect some stones,' and gathering some stones they made a cairn.They had a meal there, on the cairn, and
47 ودعاها لابان يجرسهدوثا. واما يعقوب فدعاها جلعيد.	47 Laban cal ed it Jegar-Sahadutha while Jacob called it Galeed.
48 وقال لابان هذه الرجمة هي شاهدة بيني وبينك اليوم. لذلك دعي اسمها جلعيد.	48 Laban said, 'May this cairn be a witness between us today.' That is why he named it Galeed,
49 والمصفاة. لانه قال ليراقب الرب بيني وبينك حينما نتوارى بعضنا عن بعض.	49 and also Mizpah, because he said, 'Let Yahweh act as watchman between us when we are nolonger in sight of each other.
50 انك لا تذلّ بناتي ولا تأخذ نساء على بناتي. ليس انسان معنا. انظر. الله شاهد بيني وبينك.	50 If you il -treat my daughters or marry other women besides my daughters, even though no one bewith us, remember: God is witness between us.'
51 وقال لابان ليعقوب هوذا هذه الرجمة وهوذا العمود الذي وضعت بيني وبينك.	51 Then Laban said to Jacob, 'Here is this cairn I have thrown up between us, and here the pil ar.
52 شاهدة هذه الرجمة وشاهد العمود اني لا اتجاوز هذه الرجمة اليك وانك لا تتجاوز هذه الرجمة وهذا العمود اليّ للشرّ.	52 This cairn is a witness, and the pil ar is a witness, that I am not to cross to your side of this cairn andyou are not to cross to my side of this cairn and pillar, with hostile intent.
53 اله ابراهيم وآلهة ناحور آلهة ابيهما يقضون بيننا. وحلف يعقوب بهيبة ابيه اسحق.	53 May the God of Abraham and the god of Nahor judge between us.' Then Jacob swore by theKinsman of his father Isaac.
54 وذبح يعقوب ذبيحة في الجبل ودعا اخوته ليأكلوا طعاما. فأكلوا طعاما وباتوا في الجبل	54 He offered a sacrifice on the mountain and invited his kinsmen to the meal. They ate the meal, andpassed the night on the mountain.
55 ثم بكّر لابان صباحا وقبّل بنيه وبناته وباركهم ومضى. ورجع لابان الى مكانه
