¹And he heard the words of Laban's sons, saying, Jacob hath taken away all that was our father's; and of that which was our father's hath he gotten all this glory.

¹Laj Jacob narabi li cßaßru nequeßxye li ralal laj Labán nak nequeßxye: —Laj Jacob xcßam chokß re li cßaßru re li kayucuaß. Ut riqßuin aßan xbiomoß, chanqueb.

²And Jacob beheld the countenance of Laban, and, behold, it was not toward him as before.

²Laj Jacob quixqßue retal nak incßaß chic sa na-ileß xban laj Labán. Moco joß ta junxil.

³And the LORD said unto Jacob, Return unto the land of thy fathers, and to thy kindred; and I will be with thee.

³Li Kâcuaß Dios quixye re laj Jacob: —Anakcuan tatsukßîk cuißchic saß lâ tenamit li cuanqueb cuiß lâ cuechßalal. Ut lâin junelic cuânkin âcuiqßuin, chan li Kâcuaß Dios.

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

⁴Laj Jacob quixtakla xbokbal lix Raquel joß ajcuiß lix Lea re nak tââtinak riqßuineb saß li naßajej li yô cuiß chi iloc quetômk laj Jacob.

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

⁵Laj Jacob quixye reheb li rixakil: —Lâin yôquin chixqßuebal retal nak lê yucuaß incßaß chic sa ninril joß junxil. Ut li Kâcuaß Dios li naxlokßoni lin yucuaß, aßan xtenkßan cue arin.

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

⁶Lâex xeril ajcuiß nak xincßanjelac chi anchal inchßôl chiru lê yucuaß.

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

⁷Ut aßan xinixbalakßi ut yalak jokße naxjal lin tojbal. Abanan li Kâcuaß Dios yô chintenkßanquil chi junelic. Joßcan nak laj Labán incßaß naru xbânunquil li incßaß us cue.

⁸If he said thus, The speckled shall be thy wages; then all the cattle bare speckled: and if he said thus, The ring-streaked shall be thy hire; then bare all the cattle ring-streaked.

⁸Lê yucuaß quixye cue, “Lâ tojbal aßan chixjunileb li xul li repex rixeb” chan. Ut chixjunileb li xul li queßyoßla repex chic rix. Ut quixye cuißchic cue, “Lâ tojbal, aßan li xul li balacß saß rixeb” chan cue. Nak naxye chi joßcan junes balacß chic rixeb li xul li nequeßyoßla.

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

⁹Joßcan nak li Dios incßaß quixqßue chi tâmc lix quetômk lê yucuaß ut eb li cue lâin quixqßueheb chi tâmc, chan laj Jacob.

¹⁰And it came to pass at the time that the cattle conceived, that I lifted up mine eyes, and saw in a dream, and, behold, the rams which leaped upon the cattle were ring-streaked, speckled, and grizzled.

¹⁰Ut laj Jacob quixye cuißchic reheb: —Saß jun li cutan nak yô ruheb li carner lâin quinmatqßuec ut quicuil nak li têlom carner li balacß rixeb ut li repex rixeb, junes eb aßan li yôqueb chi batzßûnc riqßuineb li ixki carner.

¹¹And the angel of God spake unto me in a dream, saying, Jacob: And I said, Here am I.

¹¹Ut saß inmatcß lix ángel li Dios quixye cue, “Jacob”, chan. Ut lâin quinye re, “Cueßquin”.

¹²And he said, Lift up now thine eyes, and see, all the rams which leap upon the cattle are ring-streaked, speckled, and grizzled: for I have seen all that Laban doeth unto thee.

¹²Ut li ángel quixye cue, “Ilon aran. Tâcuil nak eb li têlom carner li balacß rixeb ut li repex rixeb, junes eb aßan li yôqueb chi batzßûnc riqßuineb li ixki carner. Lâin li Kâcuaß Dios. Xinbânu chi joßcaßin xban nak xcuil chixjunil li cßaßru yô chixbânunquil laj Labán âcue.

¹³I am the God of Bethel, where thou anointedst the pillar, and where thou vowedst a vow unto me: now arise, get thee out from this land, and return unto the land of thy kindred.

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

¹⁴Ut lix Raquel rochben lix Lea queßchakßoc ut queßxye re laj Jacob: —Lâo mâcßaß cßaßru re li kayucuaß takêchani arin.

¹⁵Are we not counted of him strangers? for he hath sold us, and hath quite devoured also our money.

¹⁵Chanchan mâcuaßo xrabin nak nocoril li kayucuaß. Lâo cßayinbilo âcue xban li kayucuaß. Ac xatoj rix li kasumlajic. Ut anakcuan, ¿cßaß chic ru târaj? Aßan yô chixsachbal li katzßak.

¹⁶For all the riches which God hath taken from our father, that is ours, and our children's: now then, whatsoever God hath said unto thee, do.

¹⁶Lix biomal li qui-isîc chiru xban li Kâcuaß Dios, aßan ke chic anakcuan ut reheb ajcuiß li kalal kacßajol. Lâat bânu chixjunil li cßaßru xye âcue li Kâcuaß Dios, chanqueb re laj Jacob.

¹⁷Then Jacob rose up, and set his sons and his wives upon camels;

¹⁷Laj Jacob quixyîb rib re tâxic. Quixtaksiheb li rixakil joß ajcuiß eb lix cocßal chirixeb li camello.

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

¹⁸Ut queßoc chi xic Canaán saß lix tenamit laj Isaac lix yucuaß. Laj Jacob quixcßam chirix chixjunileb lix quetômk joß ajcuiß chixjunil li cßaßru re li quixtoj rix riqßuin lix trabaj saß li naßajej Padan-aram.

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

¹⁹Mâ ani laj Labán. Cuan chak saß jalan naßajej chixbesbal rixeb lix carner nak lix Raquel quirelkßaheb lix dios lix yucuaß.

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

²⁰Mâcßaß resil nak queßel laj Jacob saß li naßajej aßan. Chi joßcaßin laj Jacob quixbalakßi laj Labán laj arameo.

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

²¹Laj Jacob quiêlelic riqßuin chixjunil li cßaßru cuan re. Quinumeß saß li nimaß Eufrates ut quixcßam li be li naxic saß li tzûl Galaad.

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

²²Saß rox li cutan laj Labán quirabi resil nak quiêlelic laj Jacob.

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

²³Laj Labán quixchßutubeb li rechßalal ut queßxtâke laj Jacob. Toj chiru cuukub cutan coxeßxtau saß li tzûl Galaad.

²⁴And God came to Laban the Syrian in a dream by night, and said unto him, Take heed that thou speak not to Jacob either good or bad.

²⁴Saß li kßojyîn aßan, li Kâcuaß Dios quixcßutbesi rib chiru laj Labán laj arameo saß xmatcß. Li Kâcuaß Dios quixye re: —Chinâcuabi. Mat-âtinac saß joskßil riqßuin laj Jacob, chan li Dios.

²⁵Then Laban overtook Jacob. Now Jacob had pitched his tent in the mount: and Laban with his brethren pitched in the mount of Gilead.

²⁵Laj Labán quixtauheb laj Jacob saß li tzûl Galaad li queßxyîb cuiß lix muhebâleb. Ut saß ajcuiß li naßajej aßan queßxyîb lix muhebâleb laj Labán.

²⁶And Laban said to Jacob, What hast thou done, that thou hast stolen away unawares to me, and carried away my daughters, as captives taken with the sword?

²⁶Laj Labán quixye re laj Jacob: —¿Cßaßut nak xabânu cue chi joßcaßin? Xacßameb chak lin rabin saß junpât. Chanchan yôco saß plêt, chan.

²⁷Wherefore didst thou flee away secretly, and steal away from me; and didst not tell me, that I might have sent thee away with mirth, and with songs, with tabret, and with harp?

²⁷—¿Cßaßut nak incßaß xaye cue nak êlc chak êre cuiqßuin? Cui ta xaye cue, lâin xinbânu raj jun nimla ninkße re êchakßrabinquil. Xinbokeb raj saß li ninkße li nequeßchßeßoc tambor joß eb ajcuiß li nequeßchßeßoc arpa.

²⁸And hast not suffered me to kiss my sons and my daughters? thou hast now done foolishly in so doing.

²⁸Saß junpât xacßameb chak. Incßaß xqßue rib nak xcuutzßeb ru lin rabin joß eb ajcuiß li cui re xchakßrabinquileb. Xban âtôntil nak xabânu a naßleb aßin.

²⁹It is in the power of my hand to do you hurt: but the God of your father spake unto me yesternight, saying, Take thou heed that thou speak not to Jacob either good or bad.

²⁹Lâin naru raj tinbânu raylal êre. Abanan chi kßek quiâtinac cuiqßuin li Kâcuaß Dios, li naxlokßoni lâ yucuaß. Aßan xye cue nak incßaß tinâtinak saß joskßil âcuiqßuin.

³⁰And now, though thou wouldest needs be gone, because thou sore longedst after thy father's house, yet wherefore hast thou stolen my gods?

³⁰Lâin ninnau nak xat-el cuiqßuin saß junpât xban nak tâcuaj ru xic saß rochoch lâ yucuaß. Caßaj cuiß li incßaß nintau ru lâin, ¿cßaßut nak xacuelkßaheb chak lin dios? chan laj Labán.

³¹And Jacob answered and said to Laban, Because I was afraid: for I said, Peradventure thou wouldest take by force thy daughters from me.

³¹Ut laj Jacob quixye re laj Labán: —Lâin qui-oc inxiu. Quincßoxla nak mâre tâmakßeb lâ rabin chicuu.

³²With whomsoever thou findest thy gods, let him not live: before our brethren discern thou what is thine with me, and take it to thee. For Jacob knew not that Rachel had stolen them.

³²Chiruheb li kechßalal naru tâsiqßueb lâ dios saß kayânk. Cui tâtauheb arin, tâcßameb ut tâcâmk li ani xcßamoc chak re, chan laj Jacob. Laj Jacob incßaß naxnau nak aß lix Raquel qui-elkßan reheb lix dios laj Labán.

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

³³Ut laj Labán quixsiqßueb lix dios saß xmuhebâl laj Jacob ut incßaß quixtau. Quixsicß ajcuiß saß xmuhebâl lix Lea ut incßaß quixtau. Quixsicß ajcuiß saß xmuhebâl li cuib chi môs ut incßaß ajcuiß quixtau. Tojoßnak cô chixsicßbal saß xmuhebâl lix Raquel.

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

³⁴Abanan lix Raquel ac xmukeb lix dios rubel lix soc rix li camello. Chunchu aran saß xbên nak quicuulac laj Labán riqßuin. Laj Labán quixsiqßui lix dios yalak bar ut incßaß quixtau.

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

³⁵Lix Raquel quixye re: —At inyucuaß, chacuy inmâc. Incßaß naru tincuaclîk châcßulbal xban nak anakcuan yô inyajel ut incßaß sa tinxaklîk châcuu. Usan cui incßaß tatjoskßok cuiqßuin nak incßaß tinxaklîk châcßulbal, chan. Ut laj Labán napokoknac chixsicßbaleb lix dios ut incßaß quixtau.

³⁶And Jacob was wroth, and chode with Laban: and Jacob answered and said to Laban, What is my trespass? what is my sin, that thou hast so hotly pursued after me?

³⁶Laj Jacob quijoskßoß chiru laj Labán ut quixye re: —¿Cßaßut nak xinâtâke chak toj arin? ¿Cßaßru inmâc châcuu?

³⁷Whereas thou hast searched all my stuff, what hast thou found of all thy household stuff? set it here before my brethren and thy brethren, that they may judge betwixt us both.

³⁷Xapokle li cßaßru ke ut ¿cßaßru xatau? Cßut chiku anakcuan li cßaßru âcue xatau saß xyânkeb li cßaßru ke lâo. Eb li kechßalal teßyehok ani cuan xmâc, ma lâin malaj ut lâat.

³⁸This twenty years have I been with thee; thy ewes and thy she goats have not cast their young, and the rams of thy flock have I not eaten.

³⁸Junmay chihab tzßakal xintrabajic âcuiqßuin. Ut eb lâ quetômk mâ jun cua queßxtzßek li ral. Ut lâin mâ jun lâ carner xincamsi re tintiu.

³⁹That which was torn of beasts I brought not unto thee; I bare the loss of it; of my hand didst thou require it, whether stolen by day, or stolen by night.

³⁹Mâ jun cua xincßam chak âcuiqßuin li quetômk li nequeßcamsîc xban li joskß aj xul, xban nak lâin ninqßuehoc rêkaj eb aßan. Ut lâat junelic nacacuisi rêkaj eb li xul chicuu, li nequeßelkßâc chi cutan joß ajcuiß chiru kßojyîn, chan.

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

⁴⁰Laj Jacob quixye ajcuiß: —Lâin xincuy rilbaleb lâ quetômk. Chi cutan caßchßin mâ nincam xban xtikcual li sakße ut chiru kßojyîn mâ caßchßin nak niquinixcßol li que. Incßaß naru nacube bayak lin cuara xban li que.

⁴¹Thus have I been twenty years in thy house; I served thee fourteen years for thy two daughters, and six years for thy cattle: and thou hast changed my wages ten times.

⁴¹Junmay chihab tzßakal xintrabajic âcuiqßuin. Câlaju chihab xintrabajic chirixeb lâ rabin. Ut cuakib chihab chic xintrabajic chirix lin quetômk. Ut lâat nabal sut nacajal lin tojbal chicuu, chan.

⁴²Except the God of my father, the God of Abraham, and the fear of Isaac, had been with me, surely thou hadst sent me away now empty. God hath seen mine affliction and the labor of my hands, and rebuked thee yesternight.

⁴²Relic chi yâl li Kâcuaß Dios xinixtenkßa. Aßan li Kâcuaß Dios li quixlokßoni laj Abraham joß ajcuiß laj Isaac lin yucuaß.

Xban aßan li Kâcuaß Dios xatxkßus chi kßek, chan laj Jacob re laj Labán.

⁴³And Laban answered and said unto Jacob, These daughters are my daughters, and these children are my children, and these cattle are my cattle, and all that thou seest is mine: and what can I do this day unto these my daughters, or unto their children which they have born?

⁴³Laj Labán quichakßoc ut quixye re: —Eb li ixk aßin, aßaneb lin rabin ut eb li cocßal aßin, aßaneb li cui. Joß eb ajcuiß li quetômk aßin cueheb ajcuiß. Chixjunil li joß qßuial yôcat chirilbal, aßan cueheb lâin. Ut anakcuan cßaß ta chic ru târûk tinbânu riqßuineb lin rabin joß ajcuiß riqßuineb lix cocßal xban nak ac xeßchal châcuix.

⁴⁴Now therefore come thou, let us make a covenant, I and thou; and let it be for a witness between me and thee.

⁴⁴Joßcan nak anakcuan lâo takabânu junak li contrato chi kibil kib. Takabânu li contrato chokß retalil nak xkayîb ru li chßaßajquilal aßin saß xyâlal, chan laj Labán.

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

⁴⁵Laj Jacob quixchap jun li pec ut quixxakab saß li chßochß.

⁴⁶And Jacob said unto his brethren, Gather stones; and they took stones, and made an heap: and they did eat there upon the heap.

⁴⁶Ut quixye reheb li rechßalal: —Cßamomak chak nabalak li pec, chan. Eb aßan queßxchßutub li pec ut queßxtus. Ut queßcuaßac saß xbên li tusbil pec aßan.

⁴⁷And Laban called it Jegarsahadutha: but Jacob called it Galeed.

⁴⁷Ut laj Labán quixqßue Jegar Sahaduta chokß xcßabaß li naßajej aßan. Li cßabaßej aßin saß râtinobâl laj Labán. Ut laj Jacob quixqßue cuißchic xcßabaß li naßajej saß li râtinobâl. Galaad quixqßue chokß xcßabaß.

⁴⁸And Laban said, This heap is a witness between me and thee this day. Therefore was the name of it called Galeed;

⁴⁸Laj Labán quixye: —Li tusbil pec li xkaqßue arin, aßan retalil li contrato xkabânu arin, chan. Aßan aj e nak Galaad queßxqßue chokß xcßabaß.

⁴⁹And Mizpah; for he said, The LORD watch between me and thee, when we are absent one from another.

⁴⁹Ut queßxqßue ajcuiß Mizpa chokß xcßabaß li naßajej aßan. Laj Labán quixye, Aß taxak li Kâcuaß Dios chi-ilok ke nak takacanab kib chi kibil kib, chan.

⁵⁰If thou shalt afflict my daughters, or if thou shalt take other wives beside my daughters, no man is with us; see, God is witness betwixt me and thee.

⁵⁰Ut laj Labán quixye ajcuiß re laj Jacob: Li Kâcuaß Dios tânaßok re chixjunil li cßaßru takabânu. Cui lâat târahobtesiheb lin rabin, li Kâcuaß Dios tânaßok re.

⁵¹And Laban said to Jacob, Behold this heap, and behold this pillar, which I have cast betwixt me and thee:

⁵¹Qßue retal li tusbil pec li xkaqßue arin joß ajcuiß li jun li xakxo saß xyi.

⁵²This heap be witness, and this pillar be witness, that I will not pass over this heap to thee, and that thou shalt not pass over this heap and this pillar unto me, for harm.

⁵²Aßan li retalil nak lâat incßaß târûk tatnumekß arin chi pletic cuiqßuin, chi moco lâin târûk tinnumekß chi pletic âcuiqßuin lâat. Aßan aj e nak xkaqßue li pec arin, chan.

⁵³The God of Abraham, and the God of Nahor, the God of their father, judge betwixt us. And Jacob sware by the fear of his father Isaac.

⁵³Li Dios li quixlokßoni laj Abraham lâ xeßtônil yucuaß joß ajcuiß laj Nacor lin xeßtônil yucuaß aßan târakok âtin saß kabên cui incßaß takabânu li cßaßru xkaye, chan laj Labán.

⁵⁴Then Jacob offered sacrifice upon the mount, and called his brethren to eat bread: and they did eat bread, and tarried all night in the mount.

⁵⁴Ut laj Jacob quixlokßoni li Kâcuaß Dios saß li tzûl aßan ut quixqßue lix mayej chiru. Ut quixbokeb ajcuiß li rechßalal chi cuaßac.

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

⁵⁵Joß cuulajak chic nak quisakêu, laj Labán quicuacli ut quirutzß ruheb li ri, joß eb ajcuiß lix rabin. Quixtzßâma chiru li Dios nak târosobtesiheb. Ut chirix aßan quisukßi saß rochoch.
