8 sagde han, at de spættede Dyr skulde være min Løn, så fødte hele Hjorden spættet Afkom, og sagde han, at de stribede skulde være min Løn, så fødte hele Hjorden stribet Afkom.
8 If he spoke thus, ‘The speckled shall be your wages,’ then all the flock brought forth speckled; and if he spoke thus, ‘The striped shall be your wages,’ then all the flock brought forth striped.
12 Da sagde han: Løft dit Blik og se, hvorledes alle Bukkene, der springer, er stribede, spættede og brogede, thi jeg har set alt, hvad Laban har gjort imod dig.
12 He said, ‘Lift up now your eyes and see that all the male goats which are mating are striped, speckled, and mottled; for I have seen all that Laban has been doing to you.
13 Jeg er den Gud, som åbenbarede sig for dig i, Betel, der, hvor du salvede en Stenstøtte og aflagde mig et Løfte; bryd op og forlad dette Land og vend tilbage til din Hjemstavn!"
13 I am the God of Bethel, where you anointed a pillar, where you made a vow to Me; now arise, leave this land, and return to the land of your birth.’”
18 og tog alt sit Kvæg med sig, og al den Ejendom, han havde samlet sig, det Kvæg, han ejede og havde samlet sig i Paddan-Aram, for at drage til sin Fader Isak i Kana'ans, Land.
18 and he drove away all his livestock and all his property which he had gathered, his acquired livestock which he had gathered in Paddan-aram, to go to the land of Canaan to his father Isaac.
27 Hvorfor har du holdt din Flugt hemmelig og narret mig og ikke meddelt mig det; så jeg kunde tage Afsked med dig med Lystighed og Sang, med Håndpauker og Harper?
27 Why did you flee secretly and deceive me, and did not tell me so that I might have sent you away with joy and with songs, with timbrel and with lyre;
29 Det stod nu i min Magt at handle ilde med dig; men din Faders Gud sagde til mig i Nat: Vogt dig vel for at sige så meget som et ondt Ord til Jakob!
29 It is in my power to do you harm, but the God of your father spoke to me last night, saying, ‘Be careful not to speak either good or bad to Jacob.’
32 Men den, hos hvem du finder din Gud, skal lade sit Liv! Gennemsøg i vore Frænders Påsyn, hvad: jeg har, og tag, hvad dit er!" Jakob vidste nemlig ikke, at Rakel havde; stjålet den.
32 The one with whom you find your gods shall not live; in the presence of our kinsmen point out what is yours among my belongings and take it for yourself.” For Jacob did not know that Rachel had stolen them.
33 Laban gik nu ind og ledte i Jakobs, i Leas og i de to Tjenestekvinders Telte men fandt intet; og fra Leas gik han, til Rakels, Telt.
33 So Laban went into Jacob’s tent and into Leah’s tent and into the tent of the two maids, but he did not find them. Then he went out of Leah’s tent and entered Rachel’s tent.
35 sagde hun til sin Fader: "Min Herre tage mig ikke ilde op, at jeg ikke kan rejse mig for dig, da det går mig på Kvinders Vis!" Således ledte han efter Husguden uden at finde den.
35 She said to her father, “Let not my lord be angry that I cannot rise before you, for the manner of women is upon me.” So he searched but did not find the household idols.
36 Da blussede Vreden op i Jakob, og han gik i Rette med Laban; og Jakob sagde til Laban: "Hvad er min Brøde, og hvad er min Synd, at du satte efter mig!
36 Then Jacob became angry and contended with Laban; and Jacob said to Laban, “What is my transgression? What is my sin that you have hotly pursued me?
37 Du har jo nu gennemsøgt alle mine Ting! Hvad har du fundet af alle dine Sager? Læg det frem for mine Frænder og dine Frænder, at de kan dømme os to imellem!
37 Though you have felt through all my goods, what have you found of all your household goods? Set it here before my kinsmen and your kinsmen, that they may decide between us two.
41 I tyve År har jeg tjent dig i dit Hus, fjorten År for dine to Døtre og seks År for dit Småkvæg, og ti Gange har du forandret min Løn.
41 These twenty years I have been in your house; I served you fourteen years for your two daughters and six years for your flock, and you changed my wages ten times.
42 Havde ikke min Faders Gud, Abrahams Gud og Isaks Rædsel, stået mig bi, så havde du ladet mig gå med tomme Hænder; men Gud så min Elendighed og mine Hænders Møje, og i Nat afsagde han sin Kendelse!"
42 If the God of my father, the God of Abraham, and the fear of Isaac, had not been for me, surely now you would have sent me away empty-handed. God has seen my affliction and the toil of my hands, so He rendered judgment last night.”
43 Da sagde Laban til Jakob: "Døtrene er mine Døtre, Sønnerne er mine Sønner, Hjordene er mine Hjorde, og alt, hvad du ser, er mit men hvad skulde jeg i Dag kunne gøre imod mine Døtre eller de Sønner, de har født?
43 Then Laban replied to Jacob, “The daughters are my daughters, and the children are my children, and the flocks are my flocks, and all that you see is mine. But what can I do this day to these my daughters or to their children whom they have borne?
50 Hvis du handler ilde med mine Døtre eller tager andre Hustruer ved Siden af dem, da vid, at selv om intet Menneske er til Stede, er dog Gud Vidne mellem mig og dig!"
50 If you mistreat my daughters, or if you take wives besides my daughters, although no man is with us, see, God is witness between you and me.”
52 Vidne er denne Dysse, og Vidne er denne Støtte på, at jeg ikke i fjendtlig Hensigt vil gå forbi denne Dysse ind til dig, og at du heller ikke vil gå forbi den ind til mig;
52 This heap is a witness, and the pillar is a witness, that I will not pass by this heap to you for harm, and you will not pass by this heap and this pillar to me, for harm.
