Jacōb Leaves Secretly for Canaan

1 And he heard the words of Laban’s sons, saying, “Jacōb has taken away all that was our father’s; and of what was our father’s has he gotten all this glory.”

1 ἤκουσεν δὲ Ἰακὼβ τὰ ῥήματα τῶν υἱῶν Λαβὰν λεγόντων, εἴληφεν Ἰακὼβ πάντα τὰ τοῦ πατρὸς ἡμῶν καὶ ἐκ τῶν τοῦ πατρὸς ἡμῶν πεποίηκεν πᾶσαν τὴν δόξαν ταύτην. 1 ἤκουσε δὲ Ἰακὼβ τὰ ῥήματα τῶν υἱῶν Λάβαν λεγόντων· εἴληφεν Ἰακὼβ πάντα τὰ τοῦ πατρὸς ἡμῶν καὶ ἐκ τῶν τοῦ πατρὸς ἡμῶν πεποίηκε πᾶσαν τὴν δόξαν ταύτην.
1 And Jacōb heard the words of the sons of Laban, saying, “Jacōb has taken all that was our father’s, and he has made all this glory out of what was our father’s.” 1 And Jacōb heard the words of the sons of Laban, saying, “Jacōb has taken all that was our father’s, and he has made all this glory out of what was our father’s.”

2 And Jacōb beheld the countenance of Laban, and, behold, it wasn’t toward him as before.

2 καὶ εἶδεν Ἰακὼβ τὸ πρόσωπον τοῦ Λαβάν, καὶ ἰδοὺ οὐκ ἦν πρὸς αὐτὸν ὡς ἐχθὲς καὶ τρίτην ἡμέραν. 2 καὶ εἶδεν Ἰακὼβ τὸ πρόσωπον τοῦ Λάβαν, καὶ ἰδοὺ οὐκ ἦν πρὸς αὐτὸν ὡσεὶ σάρκες καὶ τρίτην ἡμέραν.
2 And Jacōb saw the face of Laban, and behold it wasn’t toward him as yesterday or the third day. 2 And Jacōb saw the face of Laban, and behold it wasn’t toward him as yesterday or the third day.

3 And Yahweh said to Jacōb, “Return to the land of your fathers, and to your kindred; and I will be with you.”

3 εἶπεν δὲ κύριος πρὸς Ἰακώβ, ἀποστρέφου εἰς τὴν γῆν τοῦ πατρός σου καὶ εἰς τὴν γενεάν σου, καὶ ἔσομαι μετὰ σου. 3 εἶπε δὲ Κύριος πρὸς Ἰακώβ· ἀποστρέφου εἰς τὴν γῆν τοῦ πατρός σου καὶ εἰς τὴν γενεάν σου, καὶ ἔσομαι μετὰ σοῦ.
3 And the Lord said to Jacōb, “Return to the land of your father, and to your family, and I will be with you.” 3 And the Lord said to Jacōb, “Return to the land of your father, and to your family, and I will be with you.”

4 And Jacōb sent and called Rachel and Leah to the field to his flock,

4 ἀποστείλας δὲ Ἰακὼβ ἐκάλεσεν Ῥαχὴλ καὶ Λείαν εἰς τὸ πεδίον, οὗ τὰ ποίμνια, 4 ἀποστείλας δὲ Ἰακὼβ ἐκάλεσε Λείαν καὶ Ῥαχὴλ εἰς τὸ πεδίον, οὗ ἦν τὰ ποίμνια.
4 And Jacōb sent and called Leia and Rachēl to the plain where the flocks were. 4 And Jacōb sent and called Leia and Rachēl to the plain where the flocks were.

5 And said to them, “I see your father’s countenance, that it is not toward me as before; but the God of my father has been with me.

5 καὶ εἶπεν αὐταῖς, ὁρῶ ἐγὼ τὸ πρόσωπον τοῦ πατρὸς ὑμῶν ὅτι οὐκ ἔστιν πρὸς ἐμοῦ ὡς ἐχθὲς καὶ τρίτην ἡμέραν· δὲ θεὸς τοῦ πατρός μου ἦν μετ’ ἐμοῦ. 5 καὶ εἶπε αὐταῖς· ὁρῶ ἐγὼ τὸ πρόσωπον τοῦ πατρὸς ὑμῶν, ὅτι οὐκ ἔστι πρὸς ἐμοῦ ὡς σάρκες καὶ τρίτην ἡμέραν· δὲ Θεὸς τοῦ πατρός μου ἦν μετ’ ἐμοῦ.
5 And he said to them, “I see the face of your father, that it is not toward me as yesterday or the third day, but the God of my father was with me. 5 And he said to them, “I see the face of your father, that it is not toward me as yesterday or the third day, but the God of my father was with me.

6 And you know that with all my power I have served your father.

6 καὶ αὐταὶ δὲ οἴδατε ὅτι ἐν πάσῃ τῇ ἰσχύϊ μου δεδούλευκα τῷ πατρὶ ὑμῶν. 6 καὶ αὐταὶ δὲ οἴδατε, ὅτι ἐν πάσῃ τῇ ἰσχύϊ μου δεδούλευκα τῷ πατρὶ ὑμῶν.
6 And you also know that I have served your father with all my might. 6 And you also know that I have served your father with all my might.

7 And your father has deceived me, and changed my wages ten times; but God suffered him not to hurt me.

7 δὲ πατὴρ ὑμῶν παρεκρούσατό με καὶ ἤλλαξεν τὸν μισθόν μου τῶν δέκα ἀμνῶν, καὶ οὐκ ἔδωκεν αὐτῷ θεὸς κακοποιῆσαί με. 7 δὲ πατὴρ ὑμῶν παρεκρούσατό με καὶ ἤλλαξε τὸν μισθόν μου τῶν δέκα ἀμνῶν, καὶ οὐκ ἔδωκεν αὐτῷ Θεὸς κακοποιῆσαί με.
7 But your father cheated me, and changed my wages for the ten lambs, and God didn’t give him opportunity [1] to hurt me. 7 But your father cheated me, and changed my wages for the ten lambs, and God didn’t give him opportunity [1] to hurt me.

8 If he said thus, ‘The speckled shall be your wages’; then all the cattle gave birth to speckled; and if he said thus, ‘The ringstraked shall be your hire’; then all the cattle gave birth ringstraked.

8 ἐὰν οὕτως εἴπῃ, τὰ ποικίλα ἔσται σου μισθός, καὶ τέξεται πάντα τὰ πρόβατα ποικίλα· ἐὰν δὲ εἴπῃ, τὰ λευκὰ ἔσται σου μισθός, καὶ τέξεται πάντα τὰ πρόβατα λευκά· 8 ἐὰν οὕτως εἴπῃ, τὰ ποικίλα ἔσται σου μισθός, καὶ τέξεται πάντα τὰ πρόβατα ποικίλα· ἐὰν δὲ εἴπῃ, τὰ λευκὰ ἔσται σου μισθός, καὶ τέξεται πάντα τὰ πρόβατα λευκά·
8 If he should say thus, ‛The speckled shall be your pay,’ then all the cattle would give birth to speckled; and if he should say, ‛The white shall be your pay,’ then all the cattle would give birth to white. 8 If he should say thus, ‛The speckled shall be your pay,’ then all the cattle would give birth to speckled; and if he should say, ‛The white shall be your pay,’ then all the cattle would give birth to white.

9 Thus God has taken away the cattle of your father, and given them to me.

9 καὶ ἀφείλατο θεὸς πάντα τὰ κτήνη τοῦ πατρὸς ὑμῶν καὶ ἔδωκέν μοι αὐτά. 9 καὶ ἀφείλετο Θεὸς πάντα τὰ κτήνη τοῦ πατρὸς ὑμῶν καὶ ἔδωκέ μοι αὐτά.
9 So God took away all the cattle of your father, and gave them to me. 9 So God took away all the cattle of your father, and gave them to me.

10 And it happened at the time that the cattle conceived, that I lifted up my eyes, and saw in a dream, and, behold, the rams which leaped on the cattle were ringstraked, speckled, and grisled.

10 καὶ ἐγένετο ἡνίκα ἐνεκίσσων τὰ πρόβατα, καὶ εἶδον τοῖς ὀφθαλμοῖς αὐτὰ ἐν τῷ ὕπνῳ, καὶ ἰδοὺ οἱ τράγοι καὶ οἱ κριοὶ ἀναβαίνοντες ἦσαν ἐπὶ τὰ πρόβατα καὶ τὰς αἶγας διάλευκοι καὶ ποικίλοι καὶ σποδοειδεῖς ῥαντοί. 10 καὶ ἐγένετο ἡνίκα ἐνεκίσσων τὰ πρόβατα ἐν γαστρὶ λαμβάνοντα, καὶ εἶδον τοῖς ὀφθαλμοῖς μου ἐν τῷ ὕπνῳ, καὶ ἰδοὺ οἱ τράγοι καὶ οἱ κριοὶ ἀναβαίνοντες ἐπὶ τὰ πρόβατα καὶ τὰς αἶγας διάλευκοι καὶ ποικίλοι καὶ σποδοειδεῖς ῥαντοί.
10 And it happened when the cattle were in heat and I saw them with my eyes in sleep, and look! the male goats and the rams (partly white and variegated and ash-specled) are mounting the sheep and the she-goats. 10 And it happened when the cattle were in heat and I saw them with my eyes in sleep, and look! the male goats and the rams (partly white and variegated and ash-specled) are mounting the sheep and the she-goats.

11 And the angel of God spoke to me in a dream, saying, ‘Jacōb!’ And I said, ‘Here am I.’

11 καὶ εἶπέν μοι ἄγγελος τοῦ θεοῦ καθ’ ὕπνον Ἰακώβ· ἐγὼ δὲ εἶπα, τί ἐστιν; 11 καὶ εἶπέ μοι ἄγγελος τοῦ Θεοῦ καθ’ ὕπνον· Ἰακώβ· ἐγὼ δὲ εἶπα· τί ἔστι;
11 And the angel of God said to me in a dream, ‛Jacōb’ And I said, ‛What is it?’ 11 And the angel of God said to me in a dream, ‛Jacōb’ And I said, ‛What is it?’

12 And he said, ‘Lift up now your eyes, and see, all the rams which leap on the cattle are ringstraked, speckled, and grisled; for I have seen all that Laban does to you.

12 καὶ εἶπεν, ἀνάβλεψον τοῖς ὀφθαλμοῖς σου καὶ ἰδὲ τοὺς τράγους καὶ τοὺς κριοὺς ἀναβαίνοντας ἐπὶ τὰ πρόβατα καὶ τὰς αἶγας διαλεύκους καὶ ποικίλους καὶ σποδοειδεῖς ῥαντούς· ἑώρακα γὰρ ὅσα σοί Λαβὰν ποιεῖ. 12 καὶ εἶπε· ἀνάβλεψον τοῖς ὀφθαλμοῖς σου, καὶ ἰδὲ τοὺς τράγους καὶ τοὺς κριοὺς ἀναβαίνοντας ἐπὶ τὰ πρόβατα καὶ τὰς αἶγας διαλεύκους καὶ ποικίλους καὶ σποδοειδεῖς ῥαντούς· ἑώρακα γάρ ὅσα σοι Λάβαν ποιεῖ·
12 And he said, ‛Look up with your eyes, and see the male goats and the rams (partly white and variegated and ash speckled) mounting the sheep and the she-goats; for I have seen how much Laban is doing to you. 12 And he said, ‛Look up with your eyes, and see the male goats and the rams (partly white and variegated and ash speckled) mounting the sheep and the she-goats; for I have seen how much Laban is doing to you.

13 I am the God of Bethel, where you anointed the pillar, and where you vowed a vow to me: now arise, get you out from this land, and return to the land of your kindred.’ ”

13 ἐγώ εἰμι θεὸς ὀφθείς σοί ἐν τόπῳ θεοῦ, οὗ ἤλειψάς μοι ἐκεῖ στήλην καὶ ηὔξω μοι ἐκεῖ εὐχήν· νῦν οὖν ἀνάστηθι καὶ ἔξελθε ἐκ τῆς γῆς ταύτης καὶ ἄπελθε εἰς τὴν γῆν τῆς γενέσεώς σου, καὶ ἔσομαι μετὰ σου. 13 ἐγώ εἰμι Θεὸς ὀφθείς σοι ἐν τόπῳ Θεοῦ, οὗ ἤλειψάς μοι ἐκεῖ στήλην καὶ ηὔξω μοι ἐκεῖ εὐχήν· νῦν οὖν ἀνάστηθι καὶ ἔξελθε ἐκ τῆς γῆς ταύτης καὶ ἄπελθε εἰς τὴν γῆν τῆς γενέσεώς σου, καὶ ἔσομαι μετὰ σοῦ.
13 I am the God who appeared to you in the place of God where you anointed a pillar there and vowed a vow to me there; now therefore arise and go out of this land, depart into the land of your origin, and I will be with you.’ ” 13 I am the God who appeared to you in the place of God where you anointed a pillar there and vowed a vow to me there; now therefore arise and go out of this land, depart into the land of your origin, and I will be with you.’ ”

14 And Rachel and Leah answered and said to him, “Is there yet any portion or inheritance for us in our father’s house?

14 καὶ ἀποκριθεῖσα Ῥαχὴλ καὶ Λεία εἶπαν αὐτῷ, μὴ ἔστιν ἡμῖν ἔτι μερὶς κληρονομία ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ τοῦ πατρὸς ἡμῶν; 14 καὶ ἀποκριθεῖσαι Ῥαχὴλ καὶ Λεία εἶπαν αὐτῷ· μή ἐστιν ἡμῖν ἔτι μερὶς κληρονομία ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ τοῦ πατρὸς ἡμῶν;
14 And Rachel and Leia answered and said to him, “Is there not still a part or inheritance in our father’s home? 14 And Rachel and Leia answered and said to him, “Is there not still a part or inheritance in our father’s home?

15 Are we not counted of him strangers? For he has sold us, and has completely devoured also our money.

15 οὐχ ὡς αἱ ἀλλότριαι λελογίσμεθα αὐτῷ;
πέπρακεν γὰρ ἡμᾶς καὶ κατέφαγεν καταβρώσει τὸ ἀργύριον ἡμῶν.
15 οὐχ ὡς αἱ ἀλλότριαι λελογίσμεθα αὐτῷ;
πέπρακε γὰρ ἡμᾶς καὶ καταβρώσει κατέφαγε τὸ ἀργύριον ἡμῶν.
15 Are we not considered strangers by him? For he has sold us, and devoured our money by devouring. 15 Are we not considered strangers by him? For he has sold us, and devoured our money by devouring.

16 For all the riches which God has taken from our father, that is ours, and our children’s: now then, whatever God has said to you, do.”

16 πάντα τὸν πλοῦτον καὶ τὴν δόξαν, ἣν ἀφείλατο θεὸς τοῦ πατρὸς ἡμῶν, ἡμῖν ἔσται καὶ τοῖς τέκνοις ἡμῶν.
νῦν οὖν ὅσα εἴρηκέν σοί θεός, ποίει.
16 πάντας τὸν πλοῦτον καὶ τὴν δόξαν, ἣν ἀφείλετο Θεὸς τοῦ πατρὸς ἡμῶν, ἡμῖν ἔσται καὶ τοῖς τέκνοις ἡμῶν.
νῦν οὖν ὅσα σοι εἴρηκεν Θεός, ποίει.
16 All the riches and the glory which God took from our father, it shall be for us and our children; now therefore do whatever God has said to you.” 16 All the riches and the glory which God took from our father, it shall be for us and our children; now therefore do whatever God has said to you.”

17 Then Jacōb rose up, and set his sons and his wives on camels;

17 ἀναστὰς δὲ Ἰακὼβ ἔλαβεν τὰς γυναῖκας αὐτοῦ καὶ τὰ παιδία αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ τὰς καμήλους 17 Ἀναστὰς δὲ Ἰακὼβ ἔλαβε τὰς γυναῖκας αὐτοῦ καὶ τὰ παιδία αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ τὰς καμήλους.
17 Then after Jacōb arose, he took his wives and his children on the camels; 17 Then after Jacōb arose, he took his wives and his children on the camels;

18 And he carried away all his cattle, and all his goods which he had gotten, the cattle of his getting, which he had gotten in Padan-aram, for to go to Isaac his father in the land of Canaan.

18 καὶ ἀπήγαγεν πάντα τὰ ὑπάρχοντα αὐτοῦ καὶ πᾶσαν τὴν ἀποσκευὴν αὐτοῦ, ἣν περιεποιήσατο ἐν τῇ Μεσοποταμίᾳ, καὶ πάντα τὰ αὐτοῦ ἀπελθεῖν πρὸς Ἰσαὰκ τὸν πατέρα αὐτοῦ εἰς γῆν Χαναάν. 18 καὶ ἀπήγαγε πάντα τὰ ὑπάρχοντα αὐτῷ, καὶ πᾶσαν τὴν ἀποσκευὴν αὐτοῦ, ἣν περιεποιήσατο ἐν τῇ Μεσοποταμίᾳ, καὶ πάντα τὰ αὐτοῦ ἀπελθεῖν πρὸς Ἰσαὰκ τὸν πατέρα αὐτοῦ εἰς γῆν Χαναάν.
18 and he carried away all his possessions and all his belongings, which he acquired in Mesopotamia, and all his things, to depart to Isaac his father in Chanaan-land. 18 and he carried away all his possessions and all his belongings, which he acquired in Mesopotamia, and all his things, to depart to Isaac his father in Chanaan-land.

19 And Laban went to shear his sheep; and Rachel had stolen the images that were her father’s.

19 Λαβὰν δὲ ᾤχετο κεῖραι τὰ πρόβατα αὐτοῦ· ἔκλεψεν δὲ Ῥαχὴλ τὰ εἴδωλα τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτῆς. 19 Λάβαν δὲ ᾤχετο κεῖραι τὰ πρόβατα αὐτοῦ· ἔκλεψε δὲ Ῥαχὴλ τὰ εἴδωλα τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτῆς.
19 And Laban departed to shear his sheep; but Rhachēl stole her father’s idols. 19 And Laban departed to shear his sheep; but Rhachēl stole her father’s idols.

20 And Jacōb stole away unawares to Laban the Syrian, in that he told him not that he fled.

20 ἔκρυψεν δὲ Ἰακὼβ Λαβὰν τὸν Σύρον τοῦ μὴ ἀναγγεῖλαι αὐτῷ ὅτι ἀποδιδράσκει, 20 ἔκρυψε δὲ Ἰακὼβ Λάβαν τὸν Σύρον τοῦ μὴ ἀναγγεῖλαι αὐτῷ, ὅτι ἀποδιδράσκει.
20 And Jacōb concealed his plan [2] from Laban the Syrian, so as not to tell him that he is running away. 20 And Jacōb concealed his plan [2] from Laban the Syrian, so as not to tell him that he is running away.

21 So he fled with all that he had; and he rose up, and passed over the river, and set his face toward the mount Gilead.

21 καὶ ἀπέδρα αὐτὸς καὶ πάντα τὰ αὐτοῦ καὶ διέβη τὸν ποταμὸν καὶ ὥρμησεν εἰς τὸ ὄρος Γαλαάδ. 21 καὶ ἀπέδρα αὐτὸς καὶ τὰ αὐτοῦ πάντα καὶ διέβη τὸν ποταμὸν καὶ ὥρμησεν εἰς τὸ ὄρος Γαλαάδ.
21 And he escaped with all his things, and crossed over the river, and went to the mountain of Galaad. 21 And he escaped with all his things, and crossed over the river, and went to the mountain of Galaad.

Laban Pursues Jacōb

22 And it was told Laban on the third day that Jacōb was fled.

22 ἀνηγγέλη δὲ Λαβὰν τῷ Σύρῳ τῇ τρίτῃ ἡμέρᾳ ὅτι ἀπέδρα Ἰακώβ, 22 ἀνηγγέλη δὲ Λάβαν τῷ Σύρῳ τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τῇ τρίτῃ, ὅτι ἀπέδρα Ἰακώβ,
22 On the third day, Laban the Syrian was told that Jacōb escaped. 22 Laban the Syrian was told that Jacōb escaped.

23 And he took his brothers with him, and pursued after him seven days’ journey; and they overtook him in the mount Gilead.

23 καὶ παραλαβὼν πάντας τοὺς ἀδελφοὺς αὐτοῦ μεθ’ ἑαυτοῦ ἐδίωξεν ὀπίσω αὐτοῦ ὁδὸν ἡμερῶν ἑπτὰ καὶ κατέλαβεν αὐτὸν ἐν τῷ ὄρει τῷ Γαλαάδ. 23 καὶ παραλαβὼν τοὺς ἀδελφοὺς αὐτοῦ μεθ’ ἑαυτοῦ, ἐδίωξεν ὀπίσω αὐτοῦ ὁδὸν ἡμερῶν ἑπτὰ καὶ κατέλαβεν αὐτὸν ἐν τῷ ὄρει Γαλαάδ.
23 After he took all his brothers with him, he pursued after him seven days’ journey, and overtook him on the mountain of Galaad. 23 After he took all his brothers with him, he pursued after him seven days’ journey, and overtook him on the mountain of Galaad.

24 And God came to Laban the Syrian in a dream by night, and said to him, “Take heed that you don’t speak to Jacōb either good or bad.”

24 ἦλθεν δὲ θεὸς πρὸς Λαβὰν τὸν Σύρον καθ’ ὕπνον τὴν νύκτα καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ φύλαξαι σεαυτόν, μήποτε λαλήσῃς μετὰ Ἰακὼβ πονηρά. 24 ἦλθε δὲ Θεὸς πρὸς Λάβαν τὸν Σύρον καθ’ ὕπνον τὴν νύκτα καὶ εἶπε αὐτῷ· φύλαξαι σεαυτόν, μήποτε λαλήσῃς μετὰ Ἰακὼβ πονηρά.
24 But God came to Laban the Syrian in sleep at night, and said to him, “Watch yourself that you don’t speak evil with Jacōb.” 24 But God came to Laban the Syrian in sleep at night, and said to him, “Watch yourself that you don’t speak evil with Jacōb.”

25 Then Laban overtook Jacōb. Now Jacōb had set up his tent in the mount; and Laban with his brothers camped in the mount of Gilead.

25 καὶ κατέλαβεν Λαβὰν τὸν Ἰακώβ· Ἰακὼβ δὲ ἔπηξεν τὴν σκηνὴν αὐτοῦ ἐν τῷ ὄρει· Λαβὰν δὲ ἔστησεν τοὺς ἀδελφοὺς αὐτοῦ ἐν τῷ ὄρει Γαλαάδ. 25 καὶ κατέλαβε Λάβαν τὸν Ἰακώβ· Ἰακὼβ δὲ ἔπηξε τὴν σκηνὴν αὐτοῦ ἐν τῷ ὄρει· Λάβαν δὲ ἔστησε τοὺς ἀδελφοὺς αὐτοῦ ἐν τῷ ὄρει Γαλαάδ.
25 And Laban overtook Jacōb; and Jacōb set up his tent on the mountain; and Laban stationed his brothers on the mountain Galaad. 25 And Laban overtook Jacōb; and Jacōb set up his tent on the mountain; and Laban stationed his brothers on the mountain Galaad.

26 And Laban said to Jacōb, “What have you done, that you have stolen away unawares to me, and carried away my daughters, as captives taken with the sword?

26 εἶπεν δὲ Λαβὰν τῷ Ἰακώβ, τί ἐποίησας;
ἵνα τί κρυφῇ ἀπέδρας καὶ ἐκλοποφόρησάς με καὶ ἀπήγαγες τὰς θυγατέρας μου ὡς αἰχμαλώτιδας μαχαίρᾳ;
26 εἶπε δὲ Λάβαν τῷ Ἰακώβ· τί ἐποίησας;
ἱνατί κρυφῇ ἀπέδρας καὶ ἐκλοποφόρησάς με καὶ ἀπήγαγες τὰς θυγατέρας μου ὡς αἰχμαλώτιδας μαχαίρᾳ;
26 And Laban said to Jacōb, “What have you done? Why did you run away, and ransacked me, and led my daughters away as captives with a sword? 26 And Laban said to Jacōb, “What have you done? Why did you run away, and ransacked me, and led my daughters away as captives with a sword?

27 Why did you flee away secretly, and steal away from me; and didn’t tell me, that I might have sent you away with mirth, and with songs, with tabret, and with harp?

27 καὶ εἰ ἀνήγγειλάς μοι, ἐξαπέστειλα ἄν σὲ μετ’ εὐφροσύνης καὶ μετὰ μουσικῶν, τυμπάνων καὶ κιθάρας. 27 καὶ εἰ ἀνήγγειλάς μοι, ἐξαπέστειλα ἄν σε μετ’ εὐφροσύνης καὶ μετὰ μουσικῶν καὶ τυμπάνων καὶ κιθάρας,
27 And if you had told me, I would have sent you away with mirth, and with songs, and timbrels, and lyre. 27 And if you had told me, I would have sent you away with mirth, and with songs, and timbrels, and lyre.

28 And haven’t suffered me to kiss my sons and my daughters? You have now done foolishly in so doing.

28 οὐκ ἠξιώθην καταφιλῆσαι τὰ παιδία μου καὶ τὰς θυγατέρας μου.
νῦν δὲ ἀφρόνως ἔπραξας.
28 καὶ οὐκ ἠξιώθην καταφιλῆσαι τὰ παιδία μου καὶ τὰς θυγατέρας μου.
νῦν δὲ ἀφρόνως ἔπραξας.
28 And I wasn’t worthy to kiss my children and my daughters; now then you acted foolishly. 28 And I wasn’t worthy to kiss my children and my daughters; now then you acted foolishly.

29 It is in the power of my hand to do you hurt; but the God of your father spoke to me last night, saying, ‘Take heed that you don’t speak to Jacōb either good or bad.’

29 καὶ νῦν ἰσχύει χείρ μου κακοποιῆσαί σε· δὲ θεὸς τοῦ πατρός σου ἐχθὲς εἶπεν πρός με λέγων, φύλαξαι σεαυτόν, μήποτε λαλήσῃς μετὰ Ἰακὼβ πονηρά. 29 καὶ νῦν ἰσχύει χείρ μου κακοποιῆσαί σε· δὲ Θεὸς τοῦ πατρός σου σάρκες εἶπε πρός με λέγων· φύλαξαι σεαυτόν, μή ποτε λαλήσῃς μετὰ Ἰακὼβ πονηρά.
29 And now my hand is strong to hurt you; but the God of your father spoke to me yesterday, saying, ‛Watch yourself that you don’t speak evil with Jacōb.’ 29 And now my hand is strong to hurt you; but the God of your father spoke to me yesterday, saying, ‛Watch yourself that you don’t speak evil with Jacōb.’

30 And now, though you would must be gone, because you greatly long for your father’s house, yet why have you stolen my gods?”

30 νῦν οὖν πεπόρευσαι· ἐπιθυμίᾳ γὰρ ἐπεθύμησας ἀπελθεῖν εἰς τὸν οἶκον τοῦ πατρός σου· ἵνα τί ἔκλεψας τοὺς θεούς μου; 30 νῦν οὖν πεπόρευσαι· ἐπιθυμίᾳ γὰρ ἐπεθύμησας ἀπελθεῖν εἰς τὸν οἶκον τοῦ πατρός σου· ἱνατί ἔκλεψας τοὺς θεούς μου;
30 Now therefore go, for with desire, you desired to depart for the house of your father. Why have you stolen my gods?” 30 Now therefore go, for with desire, you desired to depart for the house of your father. Why have you stolen my gods?”

31 And Jacōb answered and said to Laban, “Because I was afraid; for I said, ‘Perhaps you would take by force your daughters from me.’

31 ἀποκριθεὶς δὲ Ἰακὼβ εἶπεν τῷ Λαβάν, εἶπα γάρ μήποτε ἀφέλῃς τὰς θυγατέρας σου ἀπ’ ἐμοῦ καὶ πάντα τὰ ἐμά· 31 ἀποκριθεὶς δὲ Ἰακὼβ εἶπε τῷ Λάβαν· ὅτι ἐφοβήθην· εἶπα γάρ· μή ποτε ἀφέλῃς τὰς θυγατέρας σου ἀπ’ ἐμοῦ καὶ πάντα τὰ ἐμά.
31 And Jacōb answered and said to Laban, “for I said, ‛Lest you take away your daughters from me, and all my things.’ 31 And Jacōb answered and said to Laban, “Because I was afraid; for I said, ‛Lest you take away your daughters from me, and all my things.’

32 With whomever you find your gods, let him not live: before our brothers discern what is yours with me, and take it to you.” For Jacōb didn’t know that Rachel had stolen them.

32 ἐπίγνωθι, τί ἐστιν τῶν σῶν παρ’ ἐμοί, καὶ λαβέ.
καὶ οὐκ ἐπέγνω παρ’ αὐτῷ οὐθέν.
καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ Ἰακώβ, παρ’ ἐὰν εὕρῃς τοὺς θεούς σου, οὐ ζήσεται ἐναντίον τῶν ἀδελφῶν ἡμῶν.
οὐκ ᾔδει δὲ Ἰακὼβ ὅτι Ῥαχὴλ γυνὴ αὐτοῦ ἔκλεψεν αὐτούς.
32 καὶ εἶπε Ἰακώβ· παρ’ ἄν εὕρῃς τοὺς θεούς σου, οὐ ζήσεται ἐναντίον τῶν ἀδελφῶν ἡμῶν· ἐπίγνωθι τί ἔστι παρ’ ἐμοὶ τῶν σῶν καὶ λαβέ.
καὶ οὐκ ἐπέγνω παρ’ αὐτῷ οὐδέν.
οὐκ ᾔδει δὲ Ἰακώβ, ὅτι Ῥαχὴλ γυνὴ αὐτοῦ ἔκλεψεν αὐτούς.
32 “Learn what is yours from mine, and take.” And he didn’t recognize anything with him. And Jacōb said to him, “With whomever you should find your gods, he shall not live in the presence of our brothers;” Jacōb didn’t know that his wife Rachel had stolen them. 32 And Jacōb said to him, “With whomever you should find your gods, he shall not live in the presence of our brothers; Learn what is yours from mine, and take.” And he didn’t recognize anything with him. Jacōb didn’t know that his wife Rachel had stolen them.

33 And Laban went into Jacōb’s tent, and into Leah’s tent, and into the two maidservants’ tents; but he found them not. Then he went out of Leah’s tent, and entered into Rachel’s tent.

33 εἰσελθὼν δὲ Λαβὰν ἠρεύνησεν εἰς τὸν οἶκον Λείας καὶ οὐχ εὗρεν· καὶ ἐξελθὼν ἐκ τοῦ οἴκου Λείας ἠρεύνησεν τὸν οἶκον Ἰακὼβ καὶ ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ τῶν δύο παιδισκῶν καὶ οὐχ εὗρεν.
εἰσῆλθεν δὲ καὶ εἰς τὸν οἶκον Ῥαχήλ.
33 εἰσελθὼν δὲ Λάβαν ἠρεύνησεν εἰς τὸν οἶκον Λείας καὶ οὐχ εὗρεν· καὶ ἐξῆλθεν ἐκ τοῦ οἴκου Λείας καὶ ἠρεύνησε τὸν οἶκον Ἰακὼβ καὶ ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ τῶν δύο παιδισκῶν καὶ οὐχ εὗρεν.
εἰσῆλθε δὲ καὶ εἰς τὸν οἶκον Ῥαχήλ.
33 After entering, Laban searched in Leia’s home but didn’t find them; And after going out of Leia’s home, he searched Jacōb’s home, and in the home of the two female servants, but he didn’t find them. Then he entered into Rhachēl’s home. 33 After entering, Laban searched in Leia’s home but didn’t find them; And after going out of Leia’s home, he searched Jacōb’s home, and in the home of the two female servants, but he didn’t find them.

34 Now Rachel had taken the images, and put them in the camel’s furniture, and sat on them. And Laban searched all the tent, but found them not.

34 Ῥαχὴλ δὲ ἔλαβεν τὰ εἴδωλα καὶ ἐνέβαλεν αὐτὰ εἰς τὰ σάγματα τῆς καμήλου καὶ ἐπεκάθισεν αὐτοῖς 34 Ῥαχὴλ δὲ ἔλαβε τὰ εἴδωλα καὶ ἐνέβαλεν αὐτὰ εἰς τὰ σάγματα τῆς καμήλου καὶ ἐπεκάθισεν αὐτοῖς.
34 And Rachel took the idols, and put them into the camel’s saddlebags and sat on them. 34 And Rachel took the idols, and put them into the camel’s saddlebags and sat on them.

35 And she said to her father, “Let it not displease my lord that I cannot rise up before you; for the custom of women is on me.” And he searched, but found not the images.

35 καὶ εἶπεν τῷ πατρὶ αὐτῆς, μὴ βαρέως φέρε, κύριε· οὐ δύναμαι ἀναστῆναι ἐνώπιόν σου, ὅτι τὸ κατ’ ἐθισμὸν τῶν γυναικῶν μοί ἐστιν.
ἠρεύνησεν δὲ Λαβὰν ἐν ὅλῳ τῷ οἴκῳ καὶ οὐχ εὗρεν τὰ εἴδωλα.
35 καὶ εἶπε τῷ πατρὶ αὐτῆς· μὴ βαρέως φέρε, κύριε· οὐ δύναμαι ἀναστῆναι ἐνώπιόν σου, ὅτι τὰ κατ’ ἐθισμὸν τῶν γυναικῶν μοι ἐστίν· ἠρεύνησε δὲ Λάβαν ἐν ὅλῳ τῷ οἴκῳ καὶ οὐχ εὗρε τὰ εἴδωλα.

36 And Jacōb was wroth, and rebuked Laban; and Jacōb answered and said to Laban, “What is my trespass? What is my sin, that you have so hotly pursued after me?

36 ὠργίσθη δὲ Ἰακὼβ καὶ ἐμαχέσατο τῷ Λαβάν· ἀποκριθεὶς δὲ Ἰακὼβ εἶπεν τῷ Λαβάν, τί τὸ ἀδίκημά μου καὶ τί τὸ ἁμάρτημά μου, ὅτι κατεδίωξας ὀπίσω μου 36 ὠργίσθη δὲ Ἰακὼβ καὶ ἐμαχέσατο τῷ Λάβαν· ἀποκριθεὶς δὲ Ἰακὼβ εἶπε τῷ Λάβαν· τί τὸ ἀδίκημά μου καὶ τί τὸ ἁμάρτημά μου, ὅτι κατεδίωξας ὀπίσω μου
36 And Jacōb was angry, and argued with Laban; and Jacōb answered and said to Laban, “What is my injustice, and what my sin, that you have pursued after me, 36 And Jacōb was angry, and argued with Laban; and Jacōb answered and said to Laban, “What is my injustice, and what my sin, that you have pursued after me,

37 Whereas you have searched all my stuff, what have you found of all your household stuff? Set it here before my brothers and your brothers, that they may judge between us both.

37 καὶ ὅτι ἠρεύνησας πάντα τὰ σκεύη μου;
τί εὗρες ἀπὸ πάντων τῶν σκευῶν τοῦ οἴκου σου;
θὲς ὧδε ἐναντίον τῶν ἀδελφῶν μου καὶ τῶν ἀδελφῶν σου, καὶ ἐλεγξάτωσαν ἀνὰ μέσον τῶν δύο ἡμῶν.
37 καὶ ὅτι ἠρεύνησας πάντα τὰ σκεύη τοῦ οἴκου μου;
τί εὗρες ἀπὸ πάντων τῶν σκευῶν τοῦ οἴκου σου;
θές ὧδε ἐνώπιον τῶν ἀδελφῶν σου καὶ τῶν ἀδελφῶν μου, καὶ ἐλεγξάτωσαν ἀνὰ μέσον τῶν δύο ἡμῶν.
37 and that you have searched all my stuff? What have you found of all the stuff of your house? Set it here in front of my brothers and your brothers, and let them decide between us two. 37 and that you have searched all my stuff of my home? What have you found of all the stuff of your house? Set it here in front of my brothers and your brothers, and let them decide between us two.

38 For these 20 years I have been with you, your ewes and your she goats haven’t cast their young, and the rams of your flock I haven’t eaten.

38 ταῦτά μοι εἴκοσι ἔτη ἐγώ εἰμι μετὰ σου· τὰ πρόβατά σου καὶ αἱ αἶγές σου οὐκ ἠτεκνώθησαν· κριοὺς τῶν προβάτων σου οὐ κατέφαγον· 38 ταῦτά μοι εἴκοσιν ἔτη ἐγώ εἰμι μετὰ σοῦ· τὰ πρόβατά σου καὶ αἱ αἶγές σου οὐκ ἠτεκνώθησαν· κριοὺς τῶν προβάτων σου οὐ κατέφαγον·
38 For me, these twenty years have I been with you; your sheep, and your female-goats haven’t failed in producing offspring; I didn’t eat up any of the rams of your sheep. 38 For me, these twenty years have I been with you; your sheep, and your female-goats haven’t failed in producing offspring; I didn’t eat up any of the rams of your sheep.

39 That which was torn of beasts I didn’t bring to you; I accepted the loss of it; of my hand did you require it, whether stolen by day, or stolen by night.

39 θηριάλωτον οὐκ ἀνενήνοχά σοι, ἐγὼ ἀπετίννυον παρ’ ἐμαυτοῦ κλέμματα ἡμέρας καὶ κλέμματα νυκτός· 39 θηριάλωτον οὐκ ἐνήνοχά σοι, ἐγὼ ἀπετίννυον παρ’ ἐμαυτοῦ κλέμματα ἡμέρας καὶ κλέμματα νυκτός·
39 I didn’t bring you the ones that were taken by beasts. I compensated from myself what was stolen by day and what was stolen by night. 39 I didn’t bring you the ones that were taken by beasts. I compensated from myself what was stolen by day and what was stolen by night.

40 Thus I was; in the day the drought consumed me, and the frost by night; and my sleep departed from my eyes.

40 ἐγινόμην τῆς ἡμέρας συγκαιόμενος τῷ καύματι καὶ παγετῷ τῆς νυκτός, καὶ ἀφίστατο ὕπνος ἀπὸ τῶν ὀφθαλμῶν μου. 40 ἐγενόμην τῆς ἡμέρας συγκαιόμενος τῷ καύματι καὶ τῷ παγετῷ τῆς νυκτός, καὶ ἀφίστατο ὕπνος μου ἀπὸ τῶν ὀφθαλμῶν μου.
40 I became scorched with heat by day, and frost by night, and sleep was kept away from my eyes. 40 I became scorched with heat by day, and frost by night, and sleep was kept away from my eyes.

41 Thus have I been 20 years in your house; I served you 14 years for your two daughters, and six years for your cattle; and you have changed my wages ten times.

41 ταῦτά μοι εἴκοσι ἔτη ἐγώ εἰμι ἐν τῇ οἰκίᾳ σου· ἐδούλευσά σοί δέκα τέσσαρα ἔτη ἀντὶ τῶν δύο θυγατέρων σου καὶ ἓξ ἔτη ἐν τοῖς προβάτοις σου, καὶ παρελογίσω τὸν μισθόν μου δέκα ἀμνάσιν. 41 ταῦτά μοι εἴκοσιν ἔτη ἐγώ εἰμι ἐν τῇ οἰκίᾳ σου· ἐδούλευσά σοι δεκατέσσαρα ἔτη ἀντὶ τῶν δύο θυγατέρων σου καὶ ἓξ ἔτη ἐν τοῖς προβάτοις σου, καὶ παρελογίσω τὸν μισθόν μου δέκα ἀμνάσιν.
41 These twenty years of mine, have I been in your house; I served you fourteen years in exchange for your two daughters, and six years among your sheep, and you falsified my wages with ten lambs. 41 These twenty years of mine, have I been in your house; I served you fourteen years in exchange for your two daughters, and six years among your sheep, and you falsified my wages with ten lambs.

42 Unless the God of my father, the God of Abraham, and the fear of Isaac, had been with me, surely you had sent me away now empty. God has seen my affliction and the labour of my hands, and rebuked you last night.”

42 εἰ μὴ θεὸς τοῦ πατρός μου Ἁβραὰμ καὶ φόβος Ἰσαὰκ ἦν μοι, νῦν ἄν κενόν με ἐξαπέστειλας· τὴν ταπείνωσίν μου καὶ τὸν κόπον τῶν χειρῶν μου εἶδεν θεὸς καὶ ἤλεγξέν σὲ ἐχθές. 42 εἰ μὴ Θεὸς τοῦ πατρός μου Ἁβραὰμ καὶ φόβος Ἰσαὰκ ἦν μοι, νῦν ἄν κενόν με ἐξαπέστειλας· τὴν ταπείνωσίν μου καὶ τὸν κόπον τῶν χειρῶν μου εἶδεν Θεὸς καὶ ἤλεγξέ σε ἐχθές.
42 If the God of my father Abraham (and the fear of Isaac) had not been with me, you would now have sent me away empty; God saw my humiliation, and the labour of my hands, and rebuked you yesterday.” 42 If the God of my father Abraham (and the fear of Isaac) had not been with me, you would now have sent me away empty; God saw my humiliation, and the labour of my hands, and rebuked you yesterday.”

Covenant of Mizpah

43 And Laban answered and said to Jacōb, “These daughters are my daughters, and these children are my children, and these cattle are my cattle, and all that you see is mine; and what can I do this day to these my daughters, or to their children whom they have given birth to?

43 ἀποκριθεὶς δὲ Λαβὰν εἶπεν τῷ Ἰακώβ, αἱ θυγατέρες θυγατέρες μου καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ υἱοί μου, καὶ τὰ κτήνη κτήνη μου, καὶ πάντα, ὅσα σὺ ὁρᾷς, ἐμά ἐστιν καὶ τῶν θυγατέρων μου.
τί ποιήσω ταύταις σήμερον τοῖς τέκνοις αὐτῶν, οἷς ἔτεκον;
43 ἀποκριθεὶς δὲ Λάβαν εἶπε τῷ Ἰακώβ· αἱ θυγατέρες θυγατέρες μου, καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ υἱοί μου, καὶ τὰ κτήνη κτήνη μου, καὶ πάντας, ὅσα σὺ ὁρᾷς, ἐμά ἔστι καὶ τῶν θυγατέρων μου· τί ποιήσω ταύταις σήμερον τοῖς τέκνοις αὐτῶν, οἷς ἔτεκον;
43 And Laban answered and said to Jacōb, “The daughters are my daughters, and the sons my sons, and the cattle are my cattle, and all things which you see are mine, and of my daughters; what shall I do to them today, or their children which they given birth? 43 And Laban answered and said to Jacōb, “The daughters are my daughters, and the sons my sons, and the cattle are my cattle, and all things which you see are mine, and of my daughters; what shall I do to them today, or their children which they given birth?

44 Now therefore come, let’s make a covenant, I and you; and let it be for a witness between me and you.”

44 νῦν οὖν δεῦρο διαθώμεθα διαθήκην ἐγὼ καὶ σύ, καὶ ἔσται εἰς μαρτύριον ἀνὰ μέσον ἐμοῦ καὶ σου.
εἶπεν δὲ αὐτῷ, ἰδοὺ οὐθεὶς μεθ’ ἡμῶν ἐστιν, ἰδὲ θεὸς μάρτυς ἀνὰ μέσον ἐμοῦ καὶ σου.
44 νῦν οὖν δεῦρο διαθώμεθα διαθήκην ἐγώ τε καὶ σύ, καὶ ἔσται εἰς μαρτύριον ἀνὰ μέσον ἐμοῦ καὶ σοῦ, εἶπε δὲ αὐτῷ· ἰδοὺ οὐδεὶς μεθ’ ἡμῶν ἐστιν, ἰδέ, Θεὸς μάρτυς ἀνὰ μέσον ἐμοῦ καὶ σοῦ.
44 Now then come, let me make a treaty, both I and you, and it shall be for a witness between me and you;” and he said to him, “Look! there is no one with us; look! God is witness between me and you.” 44 Now then come, let me make a treaty, both I and you, and it shall be for a witness between me and you;” and he said to him, “Look! there is no one with us; look! God is witness between me and you.”

45 And Jacōb took a stone, and set it up for a pillar.

45 λαβὼν δὲ Ἰακὼβ λίθον ἔστησεν αὐτὸν στήλην. 45 λαβὼν δὲ Ἰακὼβ λίθον ἔστησεν αὐτὸν στήλην.
45 And after Jacōb took a stone, he set it up for a pillar. 45 And after Jacōb took a stone, he set it up for a pillar.

46 And Jacōb said to his brothers, “Gather stones.” And they took stones, and made a heap; and they ate there on the heap.

46 εἶπεν δὲ Ἰακὼβ τοῖς ἀδελφοῖς αὐτοῦ, συλλέγετε λίθους.
καὶ συνέλεξαν λίθους καὶ ἐποίησαν βουνόν, καὶ ἔφαγον καὶ ἔπιον ἐκεῖ ἐπὶ τοῦ βουνοῦ.
καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ Λαβάν, βουνὸς οὗτος μαρτυρεῖ ἀνὰ μέσον ἐμοῦ καὶ σου σήμερον.
46 εἶπε δὲ Ἰακὼβ τοῖς ἀδελφοῖς αὐτοῦ· συλλέγετε λίθους.
καὶ συνέλεξαν λίθους καὶ ἐποίησαν βουνόν, καὶ ἔφαγον ἐκεῖ ἐπὶ τοῦ βουνοῦ.
46 And Jacōb said to his brothers, “Gather stones;” and they gathered stones and made a heap, and ate there on the heap; and Laban said to him, “This heap witnesses between me and you today.” 46 And Jacōb said to his brothers, “Gather stones;” and they gathered stones and made a heap, and ate there on the heap;

47 And Laban called it Jegar-sahadutha; but Jacōb called it Galeed.

47 καὶ ἐκάλεσεν αὐτὸν Λαβὰν Βουνὸς τῆς μαρτυρίας, Ἰακὼβ δὲ ἐκάλεσεν αὐτὸν Βουνὸς μάρτυς. 47 καὶ εἶπε αὐτῷ Λάβαν· βουνὸς οὗτος μαρτυρεῖ ἀνὰ μέσον ἐμοῦ καὶ σοῦ σήμερον.
47 And Laban called it, the Heap of Testimony; and Jacōb called it, the Witness Heap. 47 and Laban said to him, “This heap witnesses between me and you today.”

48 And Laban said, “This heap is a witness between me and you this day.” Therefore was its name called Galeed;

48 εἶπεν δὲ Λαβὰν τῷ Ἰακώβ, ἰδοὺ βουνὸς οὗτος καὶ στήλη αὕτη, ἣν ἔστησα ἀνὰ μέσον ἐμοῦ καὶ σου, μαρτυρεῖ βουνὸς οὗτος καὶ μαρτυρεῖ στήλη αὕτη· διὰ τοῦτο ἐκλήθη τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ Βουνὸς μαρτυρεῖ 48 καὶ ἐκάλεσεν αὐτὸν Λάβαν Βουνὸς τῆς μαρτυρίας.
Ἰακὼβ δὲ ἐκάλεσεν αὐτὸν Βουνὸς μάρτυς.
εἶπε δὲ Λάβαν τῷ Ἰακώβ· ἰδοὺ βουνὸς οὗτος καὶ στήλη, ἣν ἔστησα ἀνὰ μέσον ἐμοῦ καὶ σοῦ, μαρτυρεῖ βουνὸς οὗτος, καὶ μαρτυρεῖ στήλη αὕτη· διὰ τοῦτο ἐκλήθη τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ, Βουνὸς μαρτυρεῖ.
48 And Laban said to Jacōb, “Behold this heap, and the pillar, which I have set between me and you; this heap witnesses, and this pillar witnesses;” therefore its name was called, the Heap witnesses. 48 And Laban called it, the Heap of Testimony; and Jacōb called it, the Witness Heap. And Laban said to Jacōb, “Behold this heap, and the pillar, which I have set between me and you; this heap witnesses, and this pillar witnesses;” therefore its name was called, the Heap witnesses.

49 And Mizpah; for he said, “Yahweh watch between me and you, when we are absent one from another.

49 καί, ὅρασις, ἣν εἶπεν, ἐπίδοι θεὸς ἀνὰ μέσον ἐμοῦ καὶ σου, ὅτι ἀποστησόμεθα ἕτερος ἀπὸ τοῦ ἑτέρου. 49 καὶ Ὅρασις, ἣν εἶπε· ἐπίδοι Θεὸς ἀνὰ μέσον ἐμοῦ καὶ σοῦ, ὅτι ἀποστησόμεθα ἕτερος ἀφ’ ἑτέρου.
49 And the vision of which he said “Let God look to it between me and you, because we are about to depart from each other, 49 And the vision of which he said “Let God look to it between me and you, because we are about to depart from each other,

50 If you shall afflict my daughters, or if you shall take other wives besides my daughters, no man is with us; see, God is witness between me and you.”

50 εἰ ταπεινώσεις τὰς θυγατέρας μου, εἰ λήμψῃ γυναῖκας ἐπὶ ταῖς θυγατράσιν μου, ὅρα οὐθεὶς μεθ’ ἡμῶν ἐστιν· 50 εἰ ταπεινώσεις τὰς θυγατέρας μου, εἰ λήψῃ γυναῖκας πρὸς ταῖς θυγατράσι μου, ὅρα, οὐδεὶς μεθ’ ἡμῶν ἐστιν ὁρῶν· Θεὸς μάρτυς μεταξὺ ἐμοῦ καὶ μεταξὺ σοῦ.
50 If you shall humiliate my daughters, if you shall take wives in addition to my daughters, beware, there is no one with us.” 50 If you shall humiliate my daughters, if you shall take wives in addition to my daughters, beware, there is no one with us. God is witness between me and you.”

51 And Laban said to Jacōb, “Behold this heap, and behold this pillar, which I have cast between me and you;

51 [ καὶ εἶπε Λάβαν τῷ Ἰακὼβ, ἰδοὺ βουνὸς οὗτος καὶ μάρτυς στήλη αὕτη.] 51 καὶ εἶπε Λάβαν τῷ Ἰακώβ· ἰδοὺ βουνὸς οὗτος καὶ μάρτυς στήλη αὕτη.
51 And Laban said to Jacōb, “Look! this heap, and this pillar are a witness. 51 And Laban said to Jacōb, “Look! this heap, and this pillar are a witness.

52 This heap be witness, and this pillar be witness, that I won’t pass over this heap to you, and that you shall not pass over this heap and this pillar to me, for harm.

52 ἐάν τε γὰρ ἐγὼ μὴ διαβῶ πρὸς σὲ μηδὲ σὺ διαβῇς πρός με τὸν βουνὸν τοῦτον καὶ τὴν στήλην ταύτην ἐπὶ κακίᾳ, 52 ἐὰν τε γὰρ ἐγὼ μὴ διαβῶ πρὸς σὲ μηδὲ σὺ διαβῇς πρός με τὸν βουνὸν τοῦτον καὶ τὴν στήλην ταύτην ἐπὶ κακίᾳ,
52 For if I don’t cross over to you, neither should you cross over to me, beyond this heap and this pillar, for harm. 52 For if I don’t cross over to you, neither should you cross over to me, beyond this heap and this pillar, for harm.

53 The God of Abraham, and the God of Nahor, the God of their father, judge between us.” And Jacōb swore by the fear of his father Isaac.

53 θεὸς Ἁβραὰμ καὶ θεὸς Ναχὼρ κρινεῖ ἀνὰ μέσον ἡμῶν καὶ ὤμοσεν Ἰακὼβ κατὰ τοῦ φόβου τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ Ἰσαάκ. 53 Θεὸς Ἁβραὰμ καὶ Θεὸς Ναχὼρ κρινεῖ ἀνὰ μέσον ἡμῶν.
53 The God of Abraham and the God of Nachōr judge between us.” And Jacōb solemnly promised by the fear of his father Isaac. 53 The God of Abraham and the God of Nachōr judge between us.”

54 Then Jacōb offered sacrifice on the mount, and called his brothers to eat bread; and they ate bread, and tarried all night in the mount.

54 καὶ ἔθυσεν Ἰακὼβ θυσίαν ἐν τῷ ὄρει καὶ ἐκάλεσεν τοὺς ἀδελφοὺς αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἔφαγον καὶ ἔπιον καὶ ἐκοιμήθησαν ἐν τῷ ὄρει. 54 καὶ ὤμοσεν Ἰακὼβ κατὰ τοῦ φόβου τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ Ἰσαάκ, καὶ ἔθυσε θυσίαν ἐν τῷ ὄρει καὶ ἐκάλεσε τοὺς ἀδελφοὺς αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἔφαγον καὶ ἔπιον καὶ ἐκοιμήθησαν ἐν τῷ ὄρει.
54 And Jacōb offered a sacrifice on the mountain, and called his brothers, and they ate and drank, and slept on the mountain. 54 and Jacōb solemnly promised by the Fear of his father Isaac. And Jacōb offered a sacrifice on the mountain, and called his brothers, and they ate and drank, and slept on the mountain.

55 And early in the morning Laban rose up, and kissed his sons and his daughters, and blessed them; and Laban departed, and returned to his place.

55 ἀναστὰς δὲ Λαβὰν τὸ πρωῒ κατεφίλησεν τοὺς υἱοὺς αὐτοῦ καὶ τὰς θυγατέρας αὐτοῦ καὶ εὐλόγησεν αὐτούς, καὶ ἀποστραφεὶς Λαβὰν ἀπῆλθεν εἰς τὸν τόπον αὐτοῦ. 55 ἀναστὰς δὲ Λάβαν τὸ πρωῒ κατεφίλησε τοὺς υἱοὺς καὶ τὰς θυγατέρας αὐτοῦ καὶ εὐλόγησεν αὐτούς, καὶ ἀποστραφεὶς Λάβαν ἀπῆλθεν εἰς τὸν τόπον αὐτοῦ.
55 then in the morning, after Laban arose, he kissed his sons and his daughters, and blessed them; and after Laban turned back, he departed to his place. 55 then in the morning, after Laban arose, he kissed his sons and his daughters, and blessed them; and after Laban turned back, he departed to his place.
