1But after that he heard the words of the sons of Laban, saying: Jacob hath taken away all that was our father’s, and being enriched by his substance is become great:
1LOHE aku la o Iakoba i na olelo a na keikikane a Labana, i ka i ana ae, Ua lawe aku la o Iakoba i na mea a pau a ko kakou makuakane, a ua loaa ia ia keia waiwai a pau no na mea a ko kakou makuakane.
2And perceiving also that Laban’s countenance was not towards him as yesterday and the other day,
2Nana aku la o Iakoba i ka maka o Labana, aole ia i maliu mai ia ia e like mamua.
3Especially the Lord saying to him: Return into the land of thy fathers, and to thy kindred, and I will be with thee.
3Olelo mai la hoi o Iehova ia Iakoba, E hoi hou aku oe i ka aina o kou poe makua, a i na hoahanau ou; a owau kekahi pu me oe.
4He sent, and called Rachel and Lia into the field, where he fed the flocks,
4Hoouna aku la o Iakoba e kahea ia Rahela laua o Lea e hele mai ma ke kula i kona poe holoholona.
5And said to them: I see your father’s countenance is not towards me as yesterday and the other day: but the God of my father hath been with me.
5I aku la oia ia laua, Ua ike no wau i ka maka o ko olua makuakane, aole ia i maliu mai ia'u e like mamua: aka, me au no ke Akua o ko'u makuakane.
6And you know that I have served your father to the uttermost of my power.
6Ua ike hoi olua i ko'u malama i ana i ko olua makuakane me ko'u ikaika a pau.
7Yea, your father also hath overreached me, and hath changed my wages ten times: and yet God hath not suffered him to hurt me.
7A ua hoopunipuni mai ko olua makuakane ia'u, a he umi kana hoololi ana i ka'u uku: aka, aole ke Akua i ae mai e hoopoino mai ia ia'u.
8If at any time he said: The speckled shall be thy wages: all the sheep brought forth speckled: but when he said on the contrary: Thou shalt take all the white ones for thy wages: all the flocks brought forth white ones.
8Ina i olelo mai kela penei, O na mea kikokiko kau uku, alaila hanau mai la na holoholona i na mea kikokiko: a i olelo mai ia penei, O na mea onionio kau uku, alaila hanau mai la na holoholona a pau i na mea onionio.
9And God hath taken your father’s substance, and given it to me.
9Pela ke Akua i lawe ai i na holoholona a ko olua makuakane, a ua haawi mai ia'u.
10For after that time came of the ewes conceiving, I lifted up my eyes, and saw in my sleep that the males which leaped upon the females were of divers colours, and spotted, and speckled.
10A i ka manawa a ka poe holoholona i ko ai, nana aku la ko'u mau maka ma ka moeuhane, ike aku la, aia hoi, o na kao kane i lele aku maluna o na kao wahine ua onionio, a ua kikokiko, a me ke kikohukohu.
11And the angel of God said to me in my sleep: Jacob? And I answered: Here I am.
11Olelo mai la ka anela o ke Akua ia'u ma ka moeuhane, E Iakoba: i aku la au, Eia wau.
12And he said: Lift up thy eyes, and see that all the males leaping upon the females, are of divers colours, spotted, and speckled. For I have seen all that Laban hath done to thee.
12I mai la kela, E nana aku oe e ike, o na kao kane e lele ana maluna o na kao wahine, ua onionio, ua kikokiko, a me ke kikohukohu: no ka mea, ua ike no wau i ka mea a pau a Labana i hana mai ai ia oe.
13I am the God of Bethel, where thou didst anoint the stone, and make a vow to me. Now therefore arise, and go out of this land, and return into thy native country.
13Owau no ke Akua no Betela, kahi au i poni ai i ka pohaku kukulu, kahi hoi au i hoohiki ai i ka hoohiki ia'u: ano hoi, e ku ae oe, e haalele aku i keia aina, a e hoi hou aku i ka aina o kou poe hoahanau.
14And Rachel and Lia answered: Have we any thing left among the goods and inheritance of our father’s house?
14Olelo mai la o Rahela laua o Lea, i mai la ia ia, Auhea kekahi kuleana, a o kekahi waiwai hooili no maua ma ka hale o ko maua makuakane?
15Hath he not counted us as strangers and sold us, and eaten up the price of us?
15Aole anei i manaoia maua e ia, he mau mea e? no ka mea, ua lilo maua i ke kuaiia e ia, a ua pau loa hoi ko maua kala ia ia.
16But God hath taken our father’s riches, and delivered them to us, and to our children: wherefore do all that God hath commanded thee.
16Nolaila, o ka waiwai a pau a ke Akua i lawe ae mai ko maua makuakane mai, no kakou ia a no na keiki a kakou: ano hoi, e hana aku oe i ka mea a ke Akua i olelo mai ai ia oe.
17Then Jacob rose up, and having set his children and wives upon camels, went his way.
17Alaila, ku ae la o Iakoba, hoee aku la i kana mau keiki a me kana mau wahine maluna o na kamelo;
18And he took all his substance, and flocks, and whatsoever he had gotten in Mesopotamia, and went forward to Isaac his father to the land of Chanaan.
18A lawe aku la ia i kana poe holoholona a pau, a me kona waiwai a pau i loaa ia ia, o na holoholona ana, i loaa ia ia ma Padanarama, e hele aku ai io Isaaka la i kona makuakane, ma ka aina o Kanaana.
19At that time Laban was gone to shear his sheep, and Rachel stole away her father’s idols.
19Ua hala aku la o Labana e ako i kana poe hipa: a aihue iho la o Rahela i na kii o kona makuakane.
20And Jacob would not confess to his father in law that he was flying away.
20Puni aku la ka naau o Labana ka Suria, ia Iakoba, i ka hai ole aku ia ia i kona mahuka ana.
21And when he was gone, together with all that belonged to him, and having passed the river, was going on towards mount Galaad,
21Pela oia i mahuka ai me kana mau mea a pau: ku ae la ia, hele mai la ma keia aoao o ka muliwai, a hele pololei mai la i ka mauna o Gileada.
22It was told Laban on the third day that Jacob fled.
22I ke kolu o ka la, olelo aku la kekahi ia Labana, Ua mahuka aku o Iakoba.
23And he took his brethren with him, and pursued after him seven days; and overtook him in the mount of Galaad.
23Kono aku la ia i kona poe hoahanau e hele pa me ia, alualu mai mahope ona i na la hele ehiku, a hiki mai la io Iakoba la ma ka mauna o Gileada.
24And he saw in a dream God saying to him: Take heed thou speak not any thing harshly against Jacob.
24Hele mai la ke Akua io Labana la ka Suria ma ka moeuhane i ka po, i mai la ia ia, E ao ia oe iho, mai olelo aku oe ia Iakoba i ka mea aloha, aole hoi ka mea hoino.
25Now Jacob had pitched his tent in the mountain: and when he with his brethren had overtaken him, he pitched his tent in the same mount of Galaad.
25Alaila loaa mai la o Iakoba ia Labana. Ua kukulu o Iakoba i kona halelewa ma ua mauna la: kukulu hoi o Labana me kona poe hoahanau ma ka mauna o Gileada.
26And he said to Jacob: Why hast thou done thus, to carry away, without my knowledge, my daughters, as captives taken with the sword.
26Olelo mai la o Labana ia Iakoba, Heaha kau i hana'i i hoopunipuni mai ai oe ia'u, a i lawe aku ai hoi i ka'u mau kaikamahine, e like me na pio e ke kana?
27Why wouldst thou run away privately and not acquaint me, that I might have brought thee on the way with joy, and with songs, and with timbrels, and with harps?
27No ke aha la oe i holo malu mai ai, me ka puni mai ia'u, aole hoi i hai mai ia'u, i hoihoi aku ai au ia oe me ka olioli a me na mele, me na pahukani a me na lira!
28Thou hast not suffered me to kiss my sons and daughters: thou hast done foolishly: and now, indeed,
28Aole hoi i ae mai oe ia'u e honi i ka'u mau moopuna a me na kaikamahine a'u? He lapuwale ka hana ana au i hana'i.
29It is in my power to return thee evil: but the God of your father said to me yesterday: Take heed thou speak not any thing harshly against Jacob.
29E hiki no i kuu lima ke hana aku ia oe i ke ino: aka, o ke Akua o kou makuakane i olelo mai ia'u, i ka po nei, i ka i ana, E ao oe, mai olelo aku oe ia Iakoba i ka mea aloha, aole hoi ka mea hoino.
30Suppose thou didst desire to go to thy friends, and hadst a longing after thy father’s house: why hast thou stolen away my gods?
30Ano hoi, i ka hele ana ua hala aku la oe, no kou iini nui ana i ka hale o kou makuakane; no ke aha hoi oe i aihue ai i ko'u mau akua?
31Jacob answered: That I departed unknown to thee, it was for fear lest thou wouldst take away thy daughters by force.
31Olelo aku la o Iakoba ia Labana, i aku la, No ka mea, ua makau wau: i iho la au, E kaili aku paha oe i kau mau kaikamahine mai o'u aku nei.
32But whereas thou chargest me with theft: with whomsoever thou shalt find thy gods, let him be slain before our brethren. Search, and if thou find any of thy things with me, take them away. Now when he said this, he knew not that Rachel had stolen the idols.
32A o ka mea e loaa ia oe, ia ia kou mau akua, aole ia e ola; imua o ko kana mau hoahanau e nana oe i kau maanei me au, a e lawe aku oe i ou la. No ka mea, aole i ike o Iakoba, na Rahela i aihue ia mau mea.
33So Laban went into the tent of Jacob, and of Lia, and of both the handmaids, and found them not. And when he was entered into Rachel’s tent,
33Komo aku la o Labana iloko o ka halelewa o Iakoba, a iloko o ka halelewa o Lea, iloko hoi o na halelewa o na kauwawahine elua, aole i loaa. Alaila, hele aku la ia iwaho o ka halelewa o Lea, a komo aku la iloko o ka halelewa o Rahela.
34She in haste hid the idols under the camel’s furniture, and sat upon them: and when he had searched all the tent, and found nothing,
34Ua lawe aku no o Rahela i ua mau kii la, a waiho pu iho la me na noho kamelo, a noho iho la maluna. Huli iho la o Labana i ka halelewa a pau, aole nae i loaa.
35She said: Let not my lord be angry that I cannot rise up before thee, because it has now happened to me, according to the custom of women, So his careful search was in vain.
35I aku la o Rahela i kona makuakane, mai huhu mai ko'u haku i kuu hiki ole ke ku ae iluna; no ka mea, he mai wahine ko'u. Imi iho la oia, aole nae i loaa ia ia na kii.
36And Jacob being angry, said in a chiding manner: For what fault of mine, and for what offence on my part hast thou so hotly pursued me,
36Ukiuki iho la o Iakoba, a ao aku la ia Labana: olelo aku la o Iakoba, i aku la ia Labana, Heaha ko'u hala? heaha hoi ko'u hewa, i alualu wela mai ai oe ia'o?
37And searched all my household stuff? What hast thou found of all the substance of thy house? lay it here before my brethren, and thy brethren, and let them judge between me and thee.
37A ua huli iho oe i ka'u ukana a pau, a heaha kau i loaa ai o na mea a pau o kou hale? e kau mai ianei imua o ko'u mau hoahanau a me kou mau hoahanau, i hooponopono mai ai lakou iwaena o kaua.
38Have I therefore been with thee twenty years? thy ewes and goats were not barren, the rams of thy flocks I did not eat:
38He iwakalua na makahiki a'u i noho ai me oe; o kau poe hipa wahine a me kau poe kao wahine, aole lakou i hanau i ka wa, aole hoi au i ai i na hipa kane o kou poe holoholona.
39Neither did I show thee that which the beast had torn, I made good all the damage: whatsoever was lost by theft, thou didst exact it of me:
39O na mea i haehaeia, aole au i lawe aku ion la; na'u no i uku aku: nau i lawe aku ia mea mai kuu lima aku, no ka mea i aihueia i ke ao, a i aihueia i ka po.
40Day and night was I parched with heat, and with frost, and sleep departed from my eyes.
40Pela wau; i ke ao, ua wela au i ka la, a i ka po, ua make i ke anu: a holo aku la ka hiamoe mai o'u mau maka aku.
41And in this manner have I served thee in thy house twenty years, fourteen for thy daughters, and six for thy flocks: thou hast changed also my wages ten times.
41Pela wau i na makahiki he iwakalua maloko o kou hale; hooikaika au nau i na makahiki he umikumamaha no kau mau kaikamahine, a me na makahiki eono no kou poe holoholona: a he umi kau hoololi ana i ka'u uku.
42Unless the God of my father Abraham, and the fear of Isaac had stood by me, peradventure now thou hadst sent me away naked: God beheld my affliction and the labour of my hands, and rebuked thee yesterday.
42Ina aole me au ke Akua o ko'u knpunakane, ke Akua o Aberahama, a o ka makau o Isaaka, he oiaio, ina ua hoihoi nele mai oe ia'u i neia manawa. Ua ike mai no ke Akua i ko'u popilikia, a me ka hana ana a ko u mau lima, a ua papa mai ia oe i ka po nei.
43Laban answered him: The daughters are mine and the children, and thy flocks, and all things that thou seest are mine: what can I do to my children, and grandchildren?
43Olelo mai la o Labana ia Iakoba, i mai la, Na'u no keia mau kaikamahine, a na'u no keia mau kamalii, a na'u no hoi keia poe holoholona, a na'u no na mea a pau au e ike nei; a heaha ka'u mea e hiki ai i keia la ke hana aku i keia mau kaikamahine a'u, a me keia mau kamalii a lakou i hanau ai?
44Come therefore, let us enter into a league: that it may be for a testimony between me and thee.
44Nolaila ea, e hoopaa kaua i berita, owau a o oe, i mea hoikeike mawaena o kaua.
45And Jacob took a stone, and set it up for a title:
45Lalau aku la o Iakoba i ka pohaku, a hooku ae la ia mea i kukulu.
46And he said to his brethren: Bring hither stones. And they gathering stones together, made a heap, and they ate upon it.
46I aku la hoi o Iakoba i kona poe hoahanau, E houluulu mai oukou i na pohaku; lawe mai la lakou i na pohaku, a hana iho la i ahu; a ai iho la lakou maluna o ua ahu la.
47And Laban called it The witness heap: and Jacob, The hillock of testimony: each of them according to the propriety of his language.
47Kapa iho la o Labana ia ahu, o I Iegasaduha: kapa iho ia o Iakoba ia mea, o I Galeeda.
48And Laban said: This heap shall be a witness between me and thee this day, and therefore the name thereof was called Galaad, that is, The witness heap.
48Olelo mai la o Labana, He mea hoikeike keia ahu pohaku mawaena o kaua i keia la. Nolaila i kapaia'i kona inoa o Galeeda.
49The Lord behold and judge between us when we shall be gone one from the other.
49A o I Mizepa hoi; no ka mea, i mai la ia, O Iehova ke kiai mai mawaena o kaua, i ko kaua manawa e noho kaawale ana.
50If thou afflict my daughters, and if thou bring in other wives over them: none is witness of our speech but God, who is present and beholdeth.
50Ina oe e hoopilikia i ka'u mau kaikamahine ina hoi oe e lawe i na wahine hou, he okoa keia mau kaikamahine a'u, aohe kanaka me kaua; e ao oe, o ke Akua no ke ike maka mai mawaena o kaua.
51And he said again to Jacob: Behold, this heap, and the stone which I have set up between me and thee,
51I mai la o Labana ia Iakoba, E nana i keia ahu, e nana hoi i keia pohaku kukulu a'u i hoolei aku ai mawaena o kaua;
52Shall be a witness: this heap, I say, and the stone, be they for a testimony, if either I shall pass beyond it going towards thee, or thou shalt pass beyond it, thinking harm to me.
52He mea hoikeike keia ahu, he mea hoikeike hoi keia pohaku kukulu, i hele ole aku ai au ma keia aoao o keia ahu i ou la, aole hoi oe e hele mai ma keia aoao o ua ahu nei a me keia pohaku kukulu i o'u nei, e hana ino.
53The God of Abraham, and the God of Nachor, the God of their father, judge between us. And Jacob swore by the fear of his father Isaac.
53O ke Akua o Aberahama, a o ke Akua o Nahora, ke Akua o ko laua makuakane, e hooponopono mawaena o kaua. A hoohiki aku la o Iakoba ma ka Makau o kona makuakane o Isaaka.
54And after he had offered sacrifices in the mountain, he called his brethren to eat bread. And when they had eaten, they lodged there:
54Alaila, kaumaha aku la o Iakoba i ka mohai maluna o ia mauna, a kahea aku la i kona poe hoahanau e ai i ka berena: ai iho la lakou i ka berena, a moe iho la ia po ma ka mauna.
55But Laban arose in the night, and kissed his sons, and daughters, and blessed them: and returned to his place.
55I kakahiaka nui, aia ae ia o Labana, honi ae la i kana mau moopuna a me kana mau kaikamahine, a hoomaikai iho la ia lakou; hele aku la o Labana, a hoi aku la i kona wahi.
