| 31 1 | JACOB LEARNT that Laban's sons were saying, 'Jacob has taken everything that was our father's, and all his wealth has come from our father's property.' | JACOB flees from Laban. Gn.31.1-21 | וַיִּשְׁמַע אֶת־דִּבְרֵי בְנֵי־לָבָן לֵאמֹר לָקַח יַעֲקֹב אֵת כָּל־אֲשֶׁר לְאָבִינוּ וּמֵאֲשֶׁר לְאָבִינוּ עָשָׂה אֵת כָּל־הַכָּבֹד הַזֶּה׃ |
|
| 2 | He also noticed that Laban was not so well disposed to him as he had once been. | | וַיַּרְא יַעֲקֹב אֶת־פְּנֵי לָבָן וְהִנֵּה אֵינֶנּוּ עִמֹּו כִּתְמֹול שִׁלְשֹׁום׃ |
|
| 3 | Then the LORD said to Jacob, 'Go back to the land of your fathers and to your kindred. I will be with you.' | | וַיֹּאמֶר יְהוָה אֶל־יַעֲקֹב שׁוּב אֶל־אֶרֶץ אֲבֹותֶיךָ וּלְמֹולַדְתֶּךָ וְאֶהְיֶה עִמָּךְ׃ |
|
| 4 | So Jacob sent to fetch Rachel and Leah to his flocks out in the country | | וַיִּשְׁלַח יַעֲקֹב וַיִּקְרָא לְרָחֵל וּלְלֵאָה הַשָּׂדֶה אֶל־צֹאנֹו׃ |
|
| 5 | and said to them, 'I see that your father is not as well disposed to me as once he was; yet the God of my father has been with me. | | וַיֹּאמֶר לָהֶן רֹאֶה אָנֹכִי אֶת־פְּנֵי אֲבִיכֶן כִּי־אֵינֶנּוּ אֵלַי כִּתְמֹל שִׁלְשֹׁם וֵאלֹהֵי אָבִי הָיָה עִמָּדִי׃ |
|
| 6 | You know how I have served your father to the best of my power, | | וְאַתֵּנָה יְדַעְתֶּן כִּי בְּכָל־כֹּחִי עָבַדְתִּי אֶת־אֲבִיכֶן׃ |
|
| 7 | but he has cheated me and changed my wages ten times over. Yet God did not let him do me any harm. | | וַאֲבִיכֶן הֵתֶל בִּי וְהֶחֱלִפ אֶת־מַשְׂכֻּרְתִּי עֲשֶׂרֶת מֹנִים וְלֹא־נְתָנֹו אֱלֹהִים לְהָרַע עִמָּדִי׃ |
|
| 8 | If Laban said, "The spotted ones shall be your wages", then all the flock bore spotted young; and if he said, "The striped ones shall be your wages", then all the flock bore striped young. | | אִם־כֹּה יֹאמַר נְקֻדִּים יִהְיֶה שְׂכָרֶךָ וְיָלְדוּ כָל־הַצֹּאן נְקֻדִּים וְאִם־כֹּה יֹאמַר עֲקֻדִּים יִהְיֶה שְׂכָרֶךָ וְיָלְדוּ כָל־הַצֹּאן עֲקֻדִּים׃ |
|
| 9 | God has taken away your father's property and has given it to me. | | וַיַּצֵּל אֱלֹהִים אֶת־מִקְנֵה אֲבִיכֶם וַיִּתֶּן־לִי׃ |
|
| 10 | In the season when the flocks were on heat, I had a dream: I looked up and saw that the he-goats mounting the flock were striped and spotted and dappled. | | וַיְהִי בְּעֵת יַחֵם הַצֹּאן וָאֶשָּׂא עֵינַי וָאֵרֶא בַּחֲלֹום וְהִנֵּה הָעַתֻּדִים הָעֹלִים עַל־הַצֹּאן עֲקֻדִּים נְקֻדִּים וּבְרֻדִּים׃ |
|
| 11 | The angel of God said to me in my dream, "Jacob", and I replied, "Here I am", | | וַיֹּאמֶר אֵלַי מַלְאַךְ הָאֱלֹהִים בַּחֲלֹום יַעֲקֹב וָאֹמַר הִנֵּנִי׃ |
|
| 12 | and he said, "Look up and see: all the he-goats mounting the flock are striped and spotted and dappled. I have seen all that Laban is doing to you. | | וַיֹּאמֶר שָׂא־נָא עֵינֶיךָ וּרְאֵה כָּל־הָעַתֻּדִים הָעֹלִים עַל־הַצֹּאן עֲקֻדִּים נְקֻדִּים וּבְרֻדִּים כִּי רָאִיתִי אֵת כָּל־אֲשֶׁר לָבָן עֹשֶׂה לָּךְ׃ |
|
| 13 | I am the God who appeared to you at Bethel where you anointed a sacred pillar and where you made your vow. Now leave this country at once and return to the land of your birth." ' | | אָנֹכִי הָאֵל בֵּית־אֵל אֲשֶׁר מָשַׁחְתָּ שָּׁם מַצֵּבָה אֲשֶׁר נָדַרְתָּ לִּי שָׁם נֶדֶר עַתָּה קוּם צֵא מִן־הָאָרֶץ הַזֹּאת וְשׁוּב אֶל־אֶרֶץ מֹולַדְתֶּךָ׃ |
|
| 14 | Rachel and Leah answered him, 'We no longer have any part or lot in our father's house. | | וַתַּעַן רָחֵל וְלֵאָה וַתֹּאמַרְנָה לֹו הַעֹוד לָנוּ חֵלֶק וְנַחֲלָה בְּבֵית אָבִינוּ׃ |
|
| 15 | Does he not look on us as foreigners, now that he has sold us and spent on himself the whole of the money paid for us? | | הֲלֹוא נָכְרִיֹּות נֶחְשַׁבְנוּ לֹו כִּי מְכָרָנוּ וַיֹּאכַל גַּם־אָכֹול אֶת־כַּסְפֵּנוּ׃ |
|
| 16 | But all the wealth which God has saved from our father's clutches is ours and our children's. Now do everything that God has said.' | | כִּי כָל־הָעֹשֶׁר אֲשֶׁר הִצִּיל אֱלֹהִים מֵאָבִינוּ לָנוּ הוּא וּלְבָנֵינוּ וְעַתָּה כֹּל אֲשֶׁר אָמַר אֱלֹהִים אֵלֶיךָ עֲשֵׂה׃ |
|
| 17 | Jacob at once set his sons and his wives on camels, | | וַיָּקָם יַעֲקֹב וַיִּשָּׂא אֶת־בָּנָיו וְאֶת־נָשָׁיו עַל־הַגְּמַלִּים׃ |
|
| 18 | and drove off all the herds and livestock which he had acquired in Paddan-aram, to go to his father Isaac in Canaan. | | וַיִּנְהַג אֶת־כָּל־מִקְנֵהוּ וְאֶת־כָּל־רְכֻשֹׁו אֲשֶׁר רָכָשׁ מִקְנֵה קִנְיָנֹו אֲשֶׁר רָכַשׁ בְּפַדַּן אֲרָם לָבֹוא אֶל־יִצְחָק אָבִיו אַרְצָה כְּנָעַן׃ |
|
| 19 | When Laban the Aramaean had gone to shear his sheep, Rachel stole her father's household gods, | | וְלָבָן הָלַךְ לִגְזֹז אֶת־צֹאנֹו וַתִּגְנֹב רָחֵל אֶת־הַתְּרָפִים אֲשֶׁר לְאָבִיהָ׃ |
|
| 20 | and Jacob deceived Laban, keeping his departure secret. | | וַיִּגְנֹב יַעֲקֹב אֶת־לֵב לָבָן הָאֲרַמִּי עַל־בְּלִי הִגִּיד לֹו כִּי בֹרֵחַ הוּא׃ |
|
| 21 | So Jacob ran away with all that he had, crossed the River and made for the hill-country of Gilead. | | וַיִּבְרַח הוּא וְכָל־אֲשֶׁר־לֹו וַיָּקָם וַיַּעֲבֹר אֶת־הַנָּהָר וַיָּשֶׂם אֶת־פָּנָיו הַר הַגִּלְעָד׃ |
