Genesis

Chapter 31

1 And he heard8085 853 the words1697 of Laban's3837 sons,1121 saying,559 Jacob3290 hath taken away3947 853 all3605 that834 was our father's;1 and of that which4480 834 was our father's1 hath he gotten6213 853 all3605 this2088 glory.3519

2 And Jacob3290 beheld7200 853 the countenance6440 of Laban,3837 and, behold,2009 it was not369 toward5973 him as before.8543 8032

3 And the LORD3068 said559 unto413 Jacob,3290 Return7725 unto413 the land776 of thy fathers,1 and to thy kindred;4138 and I will be1961 with5973 thee.

4 And Jacob3290 sent7971 and called7121 Rachel7354 and Leah3812 to the field7704 unto413 his flock,6629

5 And said559 unto them, I595 see7200 853 your father's1 countenance,6440 that3588 it is not369 toward413 me as before;8543 8032 but the God430 of my father1 hath been1961 with5973 me.

6 And ye859 know3045 that3588 with all3605 my power3581 I have served5647 853 your father.1

7 And your father1 hath deceived2048 me, and changed2498 853 my wages4909 ten6235 times;4489 but God430 suffered5414 him not3808 to hurt7489 5978 me.

8 If518 he said559 thus,3541 The speckled5348 shall be1961 thy wages;7939 then all3605 the cattle6629 bore3205 speckled:5348 and if518 he said559 thus,3541 The ringstreaked6124 shall be1961 thy hire;7939 then bore3205 all3605 the cattle6629 ringstreaked.6124

9 Thus God430 hath taken away5337 853 the cattle4735 of your father,1 and given5414 them to me.

10 And it came to pass1961 at the time6256 that the cattle6629 conceived,3179 that I lifted up5375 mine eyes,5869 and saw7200 in a dream,2472 and, behold,2009 the rams6260 which leaped5927 upon5921 the cattle6629 were ringstreaked,6124 speckled,5348 and grizzled.1261

11 And the angel4397 of God430 spoke559 unto413 me in a dream,2472 saying, Jacob:3290 And I said,559 Here2009 am I.

12 And he said,559 Lift up5375 now4994 thine eyes,5869 and see,7200 all3605 the rams6260 which leap5927 upon5921 the cattle6629 are ringstreaked,6124 speckled,5348 and grizzled:1261 for3588 I have seen7200 853 all3605 that834 Laban3837 doeth6213 unto thee.

13 I595 am the God410 of Bethel,1008 where834 8033 thou anointedst4886 the pillar,4676 and where834 8033 thou vowedst5087 a vow5088 unto me: now6258 arise,6965 get thee out3318 from4480 this2063 land,776 and return7725 unto413 the land776 of thy kindred.4138

14 And Rachel7354 and Leah3812 answered6030 and said559 unto him, Is there yet5750 any portion2506 or inheritance5159 for us in our father's1 house?1004

15 Are we not3808 counted2803 of him strangers?5237 for3588 he hath sold4376 us, and hath quite devoured398 398 also1571 853 our money.3701

16 For3588 all3605 the riches6239 which834 God430 hath taken5337 from our father,4480 1 that1931 is ours, and our children's:1121 now6258 then, whatsoever3605 834 God430 hath said559 unto413 thee, do.6213

17 Then Jacob3290 rose up,6965 and set5375 853 his sons1121 and his wives802 upon5921 camels;1581

18 And he carried away5090 853 all3605 his cattle,4735 and all3605 his goods7399 which834 he had gotten,7408 the cattle4735 of his getting,7075 which834 he had gotten7408 in Padan-aram,6307 for to go935 to413 Isaac3327 his father1 in the land776 of Canaan.3667

19 And Laban3837 went1980 to shear1494 853 his sheep:6629 and Rachel7354 had stolen1589 853 the images8655 that834 were her father's.1

20 And Jacob3290 stole away1589 853 unawares3820 to Laban3837 the Syrian,761 in that5921 he told5046 him not1097 that3588 he1931 fled.1272

21 So he1931 fled1272 with all3605 that834 he had; and he rose up,6965 and passed over5674 853 the river,5104 and set7760 853 his face6440 toward the mount2022 Gilead.1568

22 And it was told5046 Laban3837 on the third7992 day3117 that3588 Jacob3290 was fled.1272

23 And he took3947 853 his brethren251 with5973 him, and pursued7291 after310 him seven7651 days'3117 journey;1870 and they overtook1692 him in the mount2022 Gilead.1568

24 And God430 came935 to413 Laban3837 the Syrian761 in a dream2472 by night,3915 and said559 unto him, Take heed8104 that6435 thou speak1696 not to5973 Jacob3290 either good4480 2896 or5704 bad.7451

25 Then Laban3837 overtook5381 853 Jacob.3290 Now Jacob3290 had pitched8628 853 his tent168 in the mount:2022 and Laban3837 with854 his brethren251 pitched8628 in the mount2022 of Gilead.1568

26 And Laban3837 said559 to Jacob,3290 What4100 hast thou done,6213 that thou hast stolen away1589 853 unawares3824 to me, and carried away5090 853 my daughters,1323 as captives7617 taken with the sword?2719

27 Wherefore4100 didst thou flee away2244 secretly,1272 and steal away1589 from me; and didst not3808 tell5046 me, that I might have sent thee away7971 with mirth,8057 and with songs,7892 with tabret,8596 and with harp?3658

28 And hast not3808 suffered5203 me to kiss5401 my sons1121 and my daughters?1323 thou hast now6258 done foolishly5528 in so doing.6213

29 It is3426 in the power410 of my hand3027 to do6213 you hurt:7451 but the God430 of your father1 spoke559 unto413 me last night,570 saying,559 Take thou heed8104 that thou speak4480 1696 not to5973 Jacob3290 either good4480 2896 or5704 bad.7451

30 And now,6258 though thou wouldest needs be gone,1980 1980 because3588 thou sore longedst3700 3700 after thy father's1 house,1004 yet wherefore4100 hast thou stolen1589 853 my gods?430

31 And Jacob3290 answered6030 and said559 to Laban,3837 Because3588 I was afraid:3372 for3588 I said,559 Peradventure6435 thou wouldest take by force1497 853 thy daughters1323 from4480 5973 me.

32 With5973 whomsoever834 thou findest4672 853 thy gods,430 let him not3808 live:2421 before5048 our brethren251 discern5234 thou what4100 is thine with5973 me, and take3947 it to thee. For Jacob3290 knew3045 not3808 that3588 Rachel7354 had stolen1589 them.

33 And Laban3837 went935 into Jacob's3290 tent,168 and into Leah's3812 tent,168 and into the two8147 maidservants'519 tents;168 but he found4672 them not.3808 Then went3318 he out of Leah's tent,4480 168 3812 and entered935 into Rachel's7354 tent.168

34 Now Rachel7354 had taken3947 853 the images,8655 and put7760 them in the camel's1581 furniture,3733 and sat3427 upon5921 them. And Laban3837 searched4959 853 all3605 the tent,168 but found4672 them not.3808

35 And she said559 to413 her father,1 Let it not408 displease2734 5869 my lord113 that3588 I cannot3808 3201 rise up6965 before4480 6440 thee; for3588 the custom1870 of women802 is upon me. And he searched,2664 but found4672 not3808 853 the images.8655

36 And Jacob3290 was wroth,2734 and chided7378 with Laban:3837 and Jacob3290 answered6030 and said559 to Laban,3837 What4100 is my trespass?6588 what4100 is my sin,2403 that3588 thou hast so hotly pursued1814 after310 me?

37 Whereas3588 thou hast searched4959 853 all3605 my stuff,3627 what4100 hast thou found4672 of all4480 3605 thy household1004 stuff?3627 set7760 it here3541 before5048 my brethren251 and thy brethren,251 that they may judge3198 between996 us both.8147

38 This2088 twenty6242 years8141 have I595 been with5973 thee; thy ewes7353 and thy she goats5795 have not3808 cast their young,7921 and the rams352 of thy flock6629 have I not3808 eaten.398

39 That which was torn2966 of beasts I brought935 not3808 unto413 thee; I595 bore the loss2398 of it; of my hand4480 3027 didst thou require1245 it, whether stolen1589 by day,3117 or stolen1589 by night.3915

40 Thus I was;1961 in the day3117 the drought2721 consumed398 me, and the frost7140 by night;3915 and my sleep8142 departed5074 from mine eyes.4480 5869

41 Thus2088 have I been twenty6242 years8141 in thy house;1004 I served5647 thee fourteen702 6240 years8141 for thy two8147 daughters,1323 and six8337 years8141 for thy cattle:6629 and thou hast changed2498 853 my wages4909 ten6235 times.4489

42 Except3884 the God430 of my father,1 the God430 of Abraham,85 and the fear6343 of Isaac,3327 had been1961 with me, surely3588 thou hadst sent me away7971 now6258 empty.7387 God430 hath seen7200 853 mine affliction6040 and the labor3018 of my hands,3709 and rebuked3198 thee last night.570

43 And Laban3837 answered6030 and said559 unto413 Jacob,3290 These daughters1323 are my daughters,1323 and these children1121 are my children,1121 and these cattle6629 are my cattle,6629 and all3605 that834 thou859 seest7200 is mine: and what4100 can I do6213 this day3117 unto these428 my daughters,1323 or176 unto their children1121 which834 they have born?3205

44 Now6258 therefore come1980 thou, let us make3772 a covenant,1285 I589 and thou;859 and let it be1961 for a witness5707 between996 me and thee.

45 And Jacob3290 took3947 a stone,68 and set it up7311 for a pillar.4676

46 And Jacob3290 said559 unto his brethren,251 Gather3950 stones;68 and they took3947 stones,68 and made6213 an heap:1530 and they did eat398 there8033 upon5921 the heap.1530

47 And Laban3837 called7121 it Jegar-sahadutha:3026 but Jacob3290 called7121 it Galeed.1567

48 And Laban3837 said,559 This2088 heap1530 is a witness5707 between996 me and thee this day.3117 Therefore5921 3651 was the name8034 of it called7121 Galeed;1567

49 And Mizpah;4709 for834 he said,559 The LORD3068 watch6822 between996 me and thee, when3588 we are absent5641 one376 from another.4480 7453

50 If518 thou shalt afflict6031 853 my daughters,1323 or if518 thou shalt take3947 other wives802 beside5921 my daughters,1323 no369 man376 is with5973 us; see,7200 God430 is witness5707 between996 me and thee.

51 And Laban3837 said559 to Jacob,3290 Behold2009 this2088 heap,1530 and behold2009 this pillar,4676 which834 I have cast3384 between996 me and thee;

52 This2088 heap1530 be witness,5707 and this pillar4676 be witness,5713 that518 I589 will not3808 pass over5674 853 this2088 heap1530 to413 thee, and that518 thou859 shalt not3808 pass over5674 853 this2088 heap1530 and this2063 pillar4676 unto413 me, for harm.7451

53 The God430 of Abraham,85 and the God430 of Nahor,5152 the God430 of their father,1 judge8199 between996 us. And Jacob3290 swore7650 by the fear6343 of his father1 Isaac.3327

54 Then Jacob3290 offered2076 sacrifice2077 upon the mount,2022 and called7121 his brethren251 to eat398 bread:3899 and they did eat398 bread,3899 and tarried all night3885 in the mount.2022

55 And early in the morning1242 Laban3837 rose up,7925 and kissed5401 his sons1121 and his daughters,1323 and blessed1288 them: and Laban3837 departed,1980 and returned7725 unto his place.4725

創世記

第31章

1 雅各聽見拉班的兒子們有話說:「雅各把我們父親所有的都奪了去,並藉著我們父親的,得了這一切的榮耀[glory]。」

2 雅各看拉班的臉色[countenance][behold]向他不如從前了。

3 耶和華對雅各說:「你要回你祖、你父之地,到你親族那裏去,我必與你同在。」

4 雅各就打發人,叫拉結和利亞到田野羊群那裏來,

5 對她們說:「我看你們父親的臉色[countenance]向我不如從前了;但我父親的神向來與我同在。

6 你們也知道,我盡了我的力量服事你們的父親。

7 你們的父親欺哄我,十次改了我的工價;然而神不容他害我。

8 他若說:『有點的歸你作工價』,羊群所生的都有點;他若說:『有紋的歸你作工價』,羊群所生的都有紋。

9 這樣,神把你們父親的牲畜奪來賜給我了。

10 懷孕[conceived]的時候,我夢中舉目一看,見跳母羊的公綿羊[rams]都是有紋的、有點的、有花斑的。

11 神的天使[angel]在那夢中呼叫我說:『雅各。』我說:『我在這裏。』

12 他說:『你舉目觀看,跳母羊的公綿羊[rams]都是有紋的、有點的、有花斑的;凡拉班向你所作的,我都看見了。

13 我是伯.特利的神;你在那裏用油澆過柱子,向我許過願。現今你起來,離開這地,回你本地去吧。』」

14 拉結和利亞回答雅各說:「在我們父親的家裏還有我們可得的分嗎?還有[for]我們的產業嗎?

15 我們不是被他當作外人嗎?因為他賣了我們,吞了我們的[money]

16 神從我們父親所奪出來的一切財物,那就是我們和我們孩子們的;現今凡神對你所說[hath said unto thee]的,你只管去行吧。」

17 雅各起來,使他的兒子和妻子都騎上駱駝,

18 又帶著他在巴旦.亞蘭所得的一切牲畜和財物,往迦南地、他父親以撒那裏去了。

19 當時拉班剪羊毛去了,拉結偷了他父親的眾像[images that were her father's]

20 雅各背著敘利亞人拉班偷走了,並不告訴他,

21 就帶著所有的逃跑。他起身過大河,面向基列山行去。

22 到第三天,有人告訴拉班,雅各逃跑了。

23 拉班帶領他的眾弟兄去追趕,追了七日,在基列山就追上了。

24 夜間,神到敘利亞人拉班那裏,在夢中對他說:「你要小心,不可與雅各說好說歹。」

25 拉班追上雅各。雅各在山上支搭帳棚;拉班和他的眾弟兄也在基列山上支搭帳棚。

26 拉班對雅各說:「你所作的[done]是甚麼事,你竟[that thou]背著我偷走了,又把我的女兒們帶了去,如同用刀劍擄去的一般呢?

27 你為甚麼暗暗地逃跑,偷著走,並不告訴我,叫我可以歡樂、唱歌、擊鼓、彈琴的送你離去[away]

28 又不容我與外孫和女兒親嘴?你所行的真是愚昧。

29 我手中原有能力害你,只是你父親的神昨夜對我說:『你要小心,不可與雅各說好說歹。』

30 現在你雖然想你父家,不得不去,為甚麼又偷了我的神像呢?」

31 雅各回答拉班說:「恐怕你把你的女兒從我奪去,所以我逃跑。

32 至於你的神像,你在誰那裏搜出來,就不容誰存活。當著我們的眾弟兄,你認一認,在我這裏有甚麼東西是你的,就拿去。」原來雅各不知道拉結偷了那些神像。

33 拉班進了雅各、利亞,並兩個使女的帳棚,都沒有搜出來,就從利亞的帳棚出來,進了拉結的帳棚。

34 拉結已經把眾像[images]藏在駱駝的馱簍裏,便坐在上頭。拉班摸遍了那帳棚,並沒有摸著。

35 拉結對她父親說:「現在我身上不便,不能在你面前起來,求我主不要生氣。」這樣,拉班搜尋眾像[images],竟沒有搜出來。

36 雅各就發怒斥責拉班說:「我有甚麼過犯,有甚麼罪惡,你竟這樣火速的追我?

37[searched]遍了我一切的家具,你搜出甚麼來呢?可以放在你我弟兄面前,叫他們在你我中間辨別辨別。

38 我在你家這二十年,你的母綿羊、母山羊沒有掉過胎。你群中的公綿羊[rams],我沒有吃過;

39 被野獸撕裂的,我沒有帶來給你,是我自己賠上。無論是白日[or]是黑夜被偷去的,你都向我索要。

40 我白日受盡乾熱,黑夜受盡寒霜,不得合眼睡著,我常是這樣。

41 我這二十年在你家裏,為你的兩個女兒服事你十四年,為你的羊群服事你六年,你又十次改了我的工價。

42 若不是我父親以撒所敬畏的神,就是亞伯拉罕的神與我同在,你如今必定打發我空手而去。神看見我的苦情和我[hands]的勞碌,就在昨夜責備你。」

43 拉班回答雅各說:「這女兒是我的女兒,這些孩子是我的孩子,這些羊群也是我的羊群;凡在你眼前的都是我的。我的女兒並她們所生的孩子,我今日能向他們作甚麼呢?

44 來吧。你我二人可以立約,作你我中間的證據。」

45 雅各就拿一塊石頭立作柱子,

46 又對眾弟兄說:「你們堆聚石頭。」他們就拿石頭來堆成一堆,大家便在旁邊吃喝。

47 拉班稱那石堆為伊迦爾撒哈杜他,雅各卻稱那石堆為迦累得。

48 拉班說:「今日這石堆作你我中間的證據。」因此這地方名叫迦累得,

49 又叫米斯巴,意思說:「我們彼此離別以後,願耶和華在你我中間鑒察。

50 你若苦待我的女兒,又在我的女兒以外另娶妻,雖沒有人知道,卻有神在你我中間作見證。」

51 拉班又說:「你看我在你我中間所立的這石堆和柱子。

52 這石堆作證據,這柱子也作證據。我必不過這石堆去害你;你也不可過這石堆和柱子來害我。

53 但願亞伯拉罕的神和拿鶴的神,就是他們父親的神,在你我中間判斷。」雅各就指著他父親以撒所敬畏的神起誓。

54 雅各就[Then Jacob]在山上獻祭,請[his]眾弟兄來吃[bread];他們吃了[bread],便在山上住宿過夜[all night]

55 拉班清早起來,與他外孫和女兒親嘴,給他們祝福;拉班便離開[and Laban departed],回往自己的地方去了。

第31章

1 And he heard8085 853 the words1697 of Laban's3837 sons,1121 saying,559 Jacob3290 hath taken away3947 853 all3605 that834 was our father's;1 and of that which4480 834 was our father's1 hath he gotten6213 853 all3605 this2088 glory.3519

1 雅各聽見拉班的兒子們有話說:「雅各把我們父親所有的都奪了去,並藉著我們父親的,得了這一切的榮耀[glory]。」

2 And Jacob3290 beheld7200 853 the countenance6440 of Laban,3837 and, behold,2009 it was not369 toward5973 him as before.8543 8032

2 雅各看拉班的臉色[countenance][behold]向他不如從前了。

3 And the LORD3068 said559 unto413 Jacob,3290 Return7725 unto413 the land776 of thy fathers,1 and to thy kindred;4138 and I will be1961 with5973 thee.

3 耶和華對雅各說:「你要回你祖、你父之地,到你親族那裏去,我必與你同在。」

4 And Jacob3290 sent7971 and called7121 Rachel7354 and Leah3812 to the field7704 unto413 his flock,6629

4 雅各就打發人,叫拉結和利亞到田野羊群那裏來,

5 And said559 unto them, I595 see7200 853 your father's1 countenance,6440 that3588 it is not369 toward413 me as before;8543 8032 but the God430 of my father1 hath been1961 with5973 me.

5 對她們說:「我看你們父親的臉色[countenance]向我不如從前了;但我父親的神向來與我同在。

6 And ye859 know3045 that3588 with all3605 my power3581 I have served5647 853 your father.1

6 你們也知道,我盡了我的力量服事你們的父親。

7 And your father1 hath deceived2048 me, and changed2498 853 my wages4909 ten6235 times;4489 but God430 suffered5414 him not3808 to hurt7489 5978 me.

7 你們的父親欺哄我,十次改了我的工價;然而神不容他害我。

8 If518 he said559 thus,3541 The speckled5348 shall be1961 thy wages;7939 then all3605 the cattle6629 bore3205 speckled:5348 and if518 he said559 thus,3541 The ringstreaked6124 shall be1961 thy hire;7939 then bore3205 all3605 the cattle6629 ringstreaked.6124

8 他若說:『有點的歸你作工價』,羊群所生的都有點;他若說:『有紋的歸你作工價』,羊群所生的都有紋。

9 Thus God430 hath taken away5337 853 the cattle4735 of your father,1 and given5414 them to me.

9 這樣,神把你們父親的牲畜奪來賜給我了。

10 And it came to pass1961 at the time6256 that the cattle6629 conceived,3179 that I lifted up5375 mine eyes,5869 and saw7200 in a dream,2472 and, behold,2009 the rams6260 which leaped5927 upon5921 the cattle6629 were ringstreaked,6124 speckled,5348 and grizzled.1261

10 懷孕[conceived]的時候,我夢中舉目一看,見跳母羊的公綿羊[rams]都是有紋的、有點的、有花斑的。

11 And the angel4397 of God430 spoke559 unto413 me in a dream,2472 saying, Jacob:3290 And I said,559 Here2009 am I.

11 神的天使[angel]在那夢中呼叫我說:『雅各。』我說:『我在這裏。』

12 And he said,559 Lift up5375 now4994 thine eyes,5869 and see,7200 all3605 the rams6260 which leap5927 upon5921 the cattle6629 are ringstreaked,6124 speckled,5348 and grizzled:1261 for3588 I have seen7200 853 all3605 that834 Laban3837 doeth6213 unto thee.

12 他說:『你舉目觀看,跳母羊的公綿羊[rams]都是有紋的、有點的、有花斑的;凡拉班向你所作的,我都看見了。

13 I595 am the God410 of Bethel,1008 where834 8033 thou anointedst4886 the pillar,4676 and where834 8033 thou vowedst5087 a vow5088 unto me: now6258 arise,6965 get thee out3318 from4480 this2063 land,776 and return7725 unto413 the land776 of thy kindred.4138

13 我是伯.特利的神;你在那裏用油澆過柱子,向我許過願。現今你起來,離開這地,回你本地去吧。』」

14 And Rachel7354 and Leah3812 answered6030 and said559 unto him, Is there yet5750 any portion2506 or inheritance5159 for us in our father's1 house?1004

14 拉結和利亞回答雅各說:「在我們父親的家裏還有我們可得的分嗎?還有[for]我們的產業嗎?

15 Are we not3808 counted2803 of him strangers?5237 for3588 he hath sold4376 us, and hath quite devoured398 398 also1571 853 our money.3701

15 我們不是被他當作外人嗎?因為他賣了我們,吞了我們的[money]

16 For3588 all3605 the riches6239 which834 God430 hath taken5337 from our father,4480 1 that1931 is ours, and our children's:1121 now6258 then, whatsoever3605 834 God430 hath said559 unto413 thee, do.6213

16 神從我們父親所奪出來的一切財物,那就是我們和我們孩子們的;現今凡神對你所說[hath said unto thee]的,你只管去行吧。」

17 Then Jacob3290 rose up,6965 and set5375 853 his sons1121 and his wives802 upon5921 camels;1581

17 雅各起來,使他的兒子和妻子都騎上駱駝,

18 And he carried away5090 853 all3605 his cattle,4735 and all3605 his goods7399 which834 he had gotten,7408 the cattle4735 of his getting,7075 which834 he had gotten7408 in Padan-aram,6307 for to go935 to413 Isaac3327 his father1 in the land776 of Canaan.3667

18 又帶著他在巴旦.亞蘭所得的一切牲畜和財物,往迦南地、他父親以撒那裏去了。

19 And Laban3837 went1980 to shear1494 853 his sheep:6629 and Rachel7354 had stolen1589 853 the images8655 that834 were her father's.1

19 當時拉班剪羊毛去了,拉結偷了他父親的眾像[images that were her father's]

20 And Jacob3290 stole away1589 853 unawares3820 to Laban3837 the Syrian,761 in that5921 he told5046 him not1097 that3588 he1931 fled.1272

20 雅各背著敘利亞人拉班偷走了,並不告訴他,

21 So he1931 fled1272 with all3605 that834 he had; and he rose up,6965 and passed over5674 853 the river,5104 and set7760 853 his face6440 toward the mount2022 Gilead.1568

21 就帶著所有的逃跑。他起身過大河,面向基列山行去。

22 And it was told5046 Laban3837 on the third7992 day3117 that3588 Jacob3290 was fled.1272

22 到第三天,有人告訴拉班,雅各逃跑了。

23 And he took3947 853 his brethren251 with5973 him, and pursued7291 after310 him seven7651 days'3117 journey;1870 and they overtook1692 him in the mount2022 Gilead.1568

23 拉班帶領他的眾弟兄去追趕,追了七日,在基列山就追上了。

24 And God430 came935 to413 Laban3837 the Syrian761 in a dream2472 by night,3915 and said559 unto him, Take heed8104 that6435 thou speak1696 not to5973 Jacob3290 either good4480 2896 or5704 bad.7451

24 夜間,神到敘利亞人拉班那裏,在夢中對他說:「你要小心,不可與雅各說好說歹。」

25 Then Laban3837 overtook5381 853 Jacob.3290 Now Jacob3290 had pitched8628 853 his tent168 in the mount:2022 and Laban3837 with854 his brethren251 pitched8628 in the mount2022 of Gilead.1568

25 拉班追上雅各。雅各在山上支搭帳棚;拉班和他的眾弟兄也在基列山上支搭帳棚。

26 And Laban3837 said559 to Jacob,3290 What4100 hast thou done,6213 that thou hast stolen away1589 853 unawares3824 to me, and carried away5090 853 my daughters,1323 as captives7617 taken with the sword?2719

26 拉班對雅各說:「你所作的[done]是甚麼事,你竟[that thou]背著我偷走了,又把我的女兒們帶了去,如同用刀劍擄去的一般呢?

27 Wherefore4100 didst thou flee away2244 secretly,1272 and steal away1589 from me; and didst not3808 tell5046 me, that I might have sent thee away7971 with mirth,8057 and with songs,7892 with tabret,8596 and with harp?3658

27 你為甚麼暗暗地逃跑,偷著走,並不告訴我,叫我可以歡樂、唱歌、擊鼓、彈琴的送你離去[away]

28 And hast not3808 suffered5203 me to kiss5401 my sons1121 and my daughters?1323 thou hast now6258 done foolishly5528 in so doing.6213

28 又不容我與外孫和女兒親嘴?你所行的真是愚昧。

29 It is3426 in the power410 of my hand3027 to do6213 you hurt:7451 but the God430 of your father1 spoke559 unto413 me last night,570 saying,559 Take thou heed8104 that thou speak4480 1696 not to5973 Jacob3290 either good4480 2896 or5704 bad.7451

29 我手中原有能力害你,只是你父親的神昨夜對我說:『你要小心,不可與雅各說好說歹。』

30 And now,6258 though thou wouldest needs be gone,1980 1980 because3588 thou sore longedst3700 3700 after thy father's1 house,1004 yet wherefore4100 hast thou stolen1589 853 my gods?430

30 現在你雖然想你父家,不得不去,為甚麼又偷了我的神像呢?」

31 And Jacob3290 answered6030 and said559 to Laban,3837 Because3588 I was afraid:3372 for3588 I said,559 Peradventure6435 thou wouldest take by force1497 853 thy daughters1323 from4480 5973 me.

31 雅各回答拉班說:「恐怕你把你的女兒從我奪去,所以我逃跑。

32 With5973 whomsoever834 thou findest4672 853 thy gods,430 let him not3808 live:2421 before5048 our brethren251 discern5234 thou what4100 is thine with5973 me, and take3947 it to thee. For Jacob3290 knew3045 not3808 that3588 Rachel7354 had stolen1589 them.

32 至於你的神像,你在誰那裏搜出來,就不容誰存活。當著我們的眾弟兄,你認一認,在我這裏有甚麼東西是你的,就拿去。」原來雅各不知道拉結偷了那些神像。

33 And Laban3837 went935 into Jacob's3290 tent,168 and into Leah's3812 tent,168 and into the two8147 maidservants'519 tents;168 but he found4672 them not.3808 Then went3318 he out of Leah's tent,4480 168 3812 and entered935 into Rachel's7354 tent.168

33 拉班進了雅各、利亞,並兩個使女的帳棚,都沒有搜出來,就從利亞的帳棚出來,進了拉結的帳棚。

34 Now Rachel7354 had taken3947 853 the images,8655 and put7760 them in the camel's1581 furniture,3733 and sat3427 upon5921 them. And Laban3837 searched4959 853 all3605 the tent,168 but found4672 them not.3808

34 拉結已經把眾像[images]藏在駱駝的馱簍裏,便坐在上頭。拉班摸遍了那帳棚,並沒有摸著。

35 And she said559 to413 her father,1 Let it not408 displease2734 5869 my lord113 that3588 I cannot3808 3201 rise up6965 before4480 6440 thee; for3588 the custom1870 of women802 is upon me. And he searched,2664 but found4672 not3808 853 the images.8655

35 拉結對她父親說:「現在我身上不便,不能在你面前起來,求我主不要生氣。」這樣,拉班搜尋眾像[images],竟沒有搜出來。

36 And Jacob3290 was wroth,2734 and chided7378 with Laban:3837 and Jacob3290 answered6030 and said559 to Laban,3837 What4100 is my trespass?6588 what4100 is my sin,2403 that3588 thou hast so hotly pursued1814 after310 me?

36 雅各就發怒斥責拉班說:「我有甚麼過犯,有甚麼罪惡,你竟這樣火速的追我?

37 Whereas3588 thou hast searched4959 853 all3605 my stuff,3627 what4100 hast thou found4672 of all4480 3605 thy household1004 stuff?3627 set7760 it here3541 before5048 my brethren251 and thy brethren,251 that they may judge3198 between996 us both.8147

37[searched]遍了我一切的家具,你搜出甚麼來呢?可以放在你我弟兄面前,叫他們在你我中間辨別辨別。

38 This2088 twenty6242 years8141 have I595 been with5973 thee; thy ewes7353 and thy she goats5795 have not3808 cast their young,7921 and the rams352 of thy flock6629 have I not3808 eaten.398

38 我在你家這二十年,你的母綿羊、母山羊沒有掉過胎。你群中的公綿羊[rams],我沒有吃過;

39 That which was torn2966 of beasts I brought935 not3808 unto413 thee; I595 bore the loss2398 of it; of my hand4480 3027 didst thou require1245 it, whether stolen1589 by day,3117 or stolen1589 by night.3915

39 被野獸撕裂的,我沒有帶來給你,是我自己賠上。無論是白日[or]是黑夜被偷去的,你都向我索要。

40 Thus I was;1961 in the day3117 the drought2721 consumed398 me, and the frost7140 by night;3915 and my sleep8142 departed5074 from mine eyes.4480 5869

40 我白日受盡乾熱,黑夜受盡寒霜,不得合眼睡著,我常是這樣。

41 Thus2088 have I been twenty6242 years8141 in thy house;1004 I served5647 thee fourteen702 6240 years8141 for thy two8147 daughters,1323 and six8337 years8141 for thy cattle:6629 and thou hast changed2498 853 my wages4909 ten6235 times.4489

41 我這二十年在你家裏,為你的兩個女兒服事你十四年,為你的羊群服事你六年,你又十次改了我的工價。

42 Except3884 the God430 of my father,1 the God430 of Abraham,85 and the fear6343 of Isaac,3327 had been1961 with me, surely3588 thou hadst sent me away7971 now6258 empty.7387 God430 hath seen7200 853 mine affliction6040 and the labor3018 of my hands,3709 and rebuked3198 thee last night.570

42 若不是我父親以撒所敬畏的神,就是亞伯拉罕的神與我同在,你如今必定打發我空手而去。神看見我的苦情和我[hands]的勞碌,就在昨夜責備你。」

43 And Laban3837 answered6030 and said559 unto413 Jacob,3290 These daughters1323 are my daughters,1323 and these children1121 are my children,1121 and these cattle6629 are my cattle,6629 and all3605 that834 thou859 seest7200 is mine: and what4100 can I do6213 this day3117 unto these428 my daughters,1323 or176 unto their children1121 which834 they have born?3205

43 拉班回答雅各說:「這女兒是我的女兒,這些孩子是我的孩子,這些羊群也是我的羊群;凡在你眼前的都是我的。我的女兒並她們所生的孩子,我今日能向他們作甚麼呢?

44 Now6258 therefore come1980 thou, let us make3772 a covenant,1285 I589 and thou;859 and let it be1961 for a witness5707 between996 me and thee.

44 來吧。你我二人可以立約,作你我中間的證據。」

45 And Jacob3290 took3947 a stone,68 and set it up7311 for a pillar.4676

45 雅各就拿一塊石頭立作柱子,

46 And Jacob3290 said559 unto his brethren,251 Gather3950 stones;68 and they took3947 stones,68 and made6213 an heap:1530 and they did eat398 there8033 upon5921 the heap.1530

46 又對眾弟兄說:「你們堆聚石頭。」他們就拿石頭來堆成一堆,大家便在旁邊吃喝。

47 And Laban3837 called7121 it Jegar-sahadutha:3026 but Jacob3290 called7121 it Galeed.1567

47 拉班稱那石堆為伊迦爾撒哈杜他,雅各卻稱那石堆為迦累得。

48 And Laban3837 said,559 This2088 heap1530 is a witness5707 between996 me and thee this day.3117 Therefore5921 3651 was the name8034 of it called7121 Galeed;1567

48 拉班說:「今日這石堆作你我中間的證據。」因此這地方名叫迦累得,

49 And Mizpah;4709 for834 he said,559 The LORD3068 watch6822 between996 me and thee, when3588 we are absent5641 one376 from another.4480 7453

49 又叫米斯巴,意思說:「我們彼此離別以後,願耶和華在你我中間鑒察。

50 If518 thou shalt afflict6031 853 my daughters,1323 or if518 thou shalt take3947 other wives802 beside5921 my daughters,1323 no369 man376 is with5973 us; see,7200 God430 is witness5707 between996 me and thee.

50 你若苦待我的女兒,又在我的女兒以外另娶妻,雖沒有人知道,卻有神在你我中間作見證。」

51 And Laban3837 said559 to Jacob,3290 Behold2009 this2088 heap,1530 and behold2009 this pillar,4676 which834 I have cast3384 between996 me and thee;

51 拉班又說:「你看我在你我中間所立的這石堆和柱子。

52 This2088 heap1530 be witness,5707 and this pillar4676 be witness,5713 that518 I589 will not3808 pass over5674 853 this2088 heap1530 to413 thee, and that518 thou859 shalt not3808 pass over5674 853 this2088 heap1530 and this2063 pillar4676 unto413 me, for harm.7451

52 這石堆作證據,這柱子也作證據。我必不過這石堆去害你;你也不可過這石堆和柱子來害我。

53 The God430 of Abraham,85 and the God430 of Nahor,5152 the God430 of their father,1 judge8199 between996 us. And Jacob3290 swore7650 by the fear6343 of his father1 Isaac.3327

53 但願亞伯拉罕的神和拿鶴的神,就是他們父親的神,在你我中間判斷。」雅各就指著他父親以撒所敬畏的神起誓。

54 Then Jacob3290 offered2076 sacrifice2077 upon the mount,2022 and called7121 his brethren251 to eat398 bread:3899 and they did eat398 bread,3899 and tarried all night3885 in the mount.2022

54 雅各就[Then Jacob]在山上獻祭,請[his]眾弟兄來吃[bread];他們吃了[bread],便在山上住宿過夜[all night]

55 And early in the morning1242 Laban3837 rose up,7925 and kissed5401 his sons1121 and his daughters,1323 and blessed1288 them: and Laban3837 departed,1980 and returned7725 unto his place.4725

55 拉班清早起來,與他外孫和女兒親嘴,給他們祝福;拉班便離開[and Laban departed],回往自己的地方去了。
