31 ¹Yakob tee sɛ Laban mmabarima rekeka se, “Yakob afa yɛn agya agyapade nyinaa; yɛn agya agyapade mu na wanya ahonyade yi nyinaa.” ²Na Yakob hui sɛ Laban anim nyɛ ma no sɛ kan no bio.

³Afei yɛn Agya ka kyerɛɛ Yakob se, “San kɔ wʼagyanom asase so ne wʼabusuafo nkyɛn; me ne wo bɛtena.”

⁴Enti Yakob somaa ma wɔfrɛɛ Rahel ne Lea baa wuram, ne nguankuw no nkyɛn. ⁵Ɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Mihu sɛ mo agya anim nyɛ ma me sɛ kan no bio, nanso mʼagya Nyankopɔn ka me ho. ⁶Munim sɛ mede mʼahoɔden nyinaa asom mo agya. ⁷Mo agya adaadaa me, na wasesa me akatua mpɛn du, nanso yɛn Agya amma no ho kwan sɛ ɔnyɛ me bɔne. ⁸Sɛ ɔkae se, ‘Nea ne ho yɛ nsisimu ne wo akatua’ a, nguankuw no nyinaa woo mma a wɔn ho yɛ nsisimu; na sɛ ɔkae se, ‘Nea ne ho yɛ ntokuraa ne wo akatua’ a, nguankuw no nyinaa woo mma a wɔn ho yɛ ntokuraa. ⁹Enti yɛn Agya afa mo agya mmoa de ama me. ¹⁰Bere a nguankuw no hyia bere duu no, mepagyaa mʼani wɔ dae mu, na mihui sɛ mmirekyi a wɔforo wɔn no ho yɛ nsensan, nsisimu ne ntokuraa. ¹¹Agya no bɔfo ka kyerɛɛ me wɔ dae mu se, ‘Yakob,’ na mebuae se, ‘Me ni.’ ¹²Ɔkae se, ‘Ma wʼani so na hwɛ: mmirekyi a wɔne nguankuw no hyia no nyinaa ho yɛ nsensan, nsisimu ne ntokuraa, efisɛ mahu nea Laban reyɛ wo nyinaa. ¹³Mene Betel Agya no, faako a wosraa nkaedum bi ngo na wohyɛɛ me bɔ no. Afei sɔre, fi asase yi so, na san kɔ wʼabusuafo asase so.’”

¹⁴Rahel ne Lea buaa no se, “Yɛwɔ kyɛfa anaa agyapade bi wɔ yɛn agya fi bio anaa? ¹⁵Ɔmfa yɛn sɛ ananafo anaa? Watɔn yɛn, na wadi yɛn sika no nyinaa nso. ¹⁶Ahonyade a yɛn Agya agye afi Laban nsam no nyinaa yɛ yɛn ne yɛn mma de. Enti afei, yɛ biribiara a yɛn Agya aka akyerɛ wo no.”

¹⁷Enti Yakob sɔre maa ne mma ne ne yerenom tenaa yoma so. ¹⁸Ɔkaa ne mmoa nyinaa ne nʼagyapade a wanya nyinaa, mmoa a wanya wɔ Paddan-Aram no, sɛ ɔde rekɔ nʼagya Isak nkyɛn wɔ Kanaan asase so. ¹⁹Laban kɔtwitwaa ne nguan ho nwi, na Rahel wiaa nʼagya efie abosom. ²⁰Na Yakob daadaa Laban Aramni no, efisɛ wanka ankyerɛ no sɛ ɔreguan. ²¹Ɔde nea ɔwɔ nyinaa guanee; ɔsɔree, twaa asubɔnten Eufrate, na ɔde nʼani kyerɛɛ Gilead bepɔw asase so.

Laban Taa Yakob

²²Ne nnansa so no, wɔka kyerɛɛ Laban sɛ Yakob aguan. ²³Ɔfaa nʼabusuafo, taa no nnanson, na ɔtoo no wɔ Gilead bepɔw asase so.

²⁴Nanso yɛn Agya baa Laban Aramni no nkyɛn wɔ anadwo dae mu ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Hwɛ yiye na wo ne Yakob ammɔ nkɔmmɔ biara, sɛ ɛyɛ papa anaa bɔne.”

²⁵Laban too Yakob a na wabɔ ne ntamadan wɔ nkoko so no; na Laban ne nʼabusuafo nso bɔɔ wɔn ntamadan wɔ Gilead nkoko so bɛn no. ²⁶Laban ka kyerɛɛ Yakob se, “Dɛn na woayɛ yi? Woadaadaa me, na woafa me mmabea aka akɔ te sɛ nnommum a wɔkyeree wɔn wɔ ɔko mu. ²⁷Adɛn nti na wowiaa wo ho guanee, daadaa me, na woanka ankyerɛ me? Anka mede anigye ne nnwom, akasae ne sanku bɛgya wo kwan. ²⁸Adɛn nti na wamma me kwan sɛ mefe me mmabarima ne me mmabea ano nkra wɔn? Afei woayɛ nkwaseasɛm.

²⁹Mewɔ tumi sɛ meyɛ wo bɔne, nanso wʼagya Nyankopɔn ka kyerɛɛ me nnɛra anadwo se, ‘Hwɛ wo ho yiye na wonka biribiara nkyerɛ Yakob, sɛ ɛyɛ papa anaa bɔne.’

³⁰Afei ampa ara woakɔ, efisɛ wo kɔn dɔɔ wʼagya fi yiye; nanso adɛn nti na wowiaa me anyame?”

³¹Yakob buaa Laban se, “Na misuro, efisɛ na misusuw sɛ wobɛfa wo mmabea afi me nsam denam ahoɔden so. ³²Obiara a wobɛhu wo anyame no wɔ ne nkyɛn no bewu. Wɔ yɛn abusuafo anim, kyerɛ nea ɛyɛ wo de, na fa.” Na Yakob nnim sɛ Rahel na wawia no.

³³Laban hwehwɛɛ Yakob ntamadan mu, Lea ntamadan mu ne mfenaa baanu no ntamadan mu, nanso wanhu hwee; ofii Lea ntamadan mu no, ɔkɔɔ Rahel ntamadan mu. ³⁴Rahel de efie abosom no ahyɛ yoma no so akonnwa mu, na watena so. Laban hwehwɛɛ ntamadan no mu nyinaa, nanso wanhu hwee. ³⁵Rahel ka kyerɛɛ nʼagya se, “Me wura, mma wo bo mfuw; mintumi nsɔre mma wo, efisɛ mewɔ bra.” Ɔhwehwɛɛ, nanso wanhu efie abosom no.

³⁶Yakob bo fuw, na ɔne Laban gyee akyinnye. Yakob buaa Laban se, “Dɛn ne me mfomso? Dɛn ne me bɔne a enti woataa me sei? ³⁷Woahwehwɛ me nneɛma nyinaa mu; dɛn na wuhui a efi wo fi? Fa to ha wɔ me abusuafo ne wo de anim, na wɔmmu yɛn baanu ntam atɛn.

³⁸Mfe aduonu ni a me ne wo atena; wo nguan bere ne wʼabirekyi bere nnwoo mma a wawu, na minnii wo nguankuw mu adwennini biara. ³⁹Mmoa a wɔn atare wɔn no, mamfa bi amma wo da; me ara na mede ho ka sɔɔ. Wohwehwɛɛ fi me nsam, nea wɔwiae awia ne nea wɔwiae anadwo nyinaa. ⁴⁰Saa na na mete: awia, ɔhyew hyew me, anadwo nso awɔw de me, na nna guan fii mʼani so. ⁴¹Mfe aduonu na mete wo fi; mfe dunan a mesom wo wɔ wo mmabea baanu ho, ne mfe asia a mesom wɔ wo nguankuw ho, na wosesaa me akatua mpɛn du. ⁴²Sɛ anka mʼagya Nyankopɔn, Abraham Nyankopɔn ne Isak Suro ne me ntenaa a, anka nokware wobɛpam me nsapan seesei. Yɛn Agya hui me amanehunu ne me nsa adwumaden, na ɔbɔɔ wo kɔkɔ nnɛra anadwo.” ^a a v42 “Isak Suro” ne din titiriw a Yakob de frɛ yɛn Agya — Onyankopɔn a nʼagya Isak suroo no wɔ apam mu nidi a emu dɔ mu no. Sɛ wode saa kwan yi bɔ Agya no din a, na wonam ɔba nokwafo ani so bɔ ne din.

⁴³Laban buaa Yakob se, “Mmabea yi yɛ me de, mma no yɛ me de, nguankuw no yɛ me de; nea wuhu biara yɛ me de. Nanso dɛn na metumi ayɛ ama me mmabea yi anaa mma a wɔwoo wɔn no nnɛ? ⁴⁴Bra, ma me ne wo nyɛ apam; ma ɛnyɛ adansede wɔ me ne wo ntam.”

⁴⁵Enti Yakob faa ɔbo bi sii no sɛ nkaedum. ⁴⁶Yakob ka kyerɛɛ nʼabusuafo se, “Mommoaboa abo ano.” Wɔfaa abo bɔɔ no buw, na wodidii wɔ hɔ wɔ abo buw no ho. ⁴⁷Laban too no din Yegar-Sahaduta, nanso Yakob too no din Galeed. ⁴⁸Laban kae se, “Abo buw yi yɛ adansede wɔ me ne wo ntam nnɛ.” Ɛno nti na ɔtoo no din Galeed, ⁴⁹ne Mispa nso, efisɛ ɔkae se, “Onyankopɔn nhwɛ me ne wo ntam bere a yɛatetew yɛn ho no. ⁵⁰Sɛ woyɛ me mmabea bɔne anaa wode yerenom foforo ka wɔn ho a, ɛwɔ mu sɛ obi foforo nni ha de, nanso Onyankopɔn ne ɔdansefo wɔ me ne wo ntam.” ⁵¹Laban ka kyerɛɛ Yakob se, “Hwɛ abo buw yi ne nkaedum yi a mede asi me ne wo ntam no. ⁵²Abo buw yi di adanse, na nkaedum yi nso di adanse sɛ merentwa abo buw yi mma wo nkyɛn, na worentwa abo buw yi ne nkaedum yi mmra me nkyɛn, sɛ yɛbɛyɛ yɛn ho bɔne. ⁵³Abraham Nyankopɔn ne Nahor Nyankopɔn, wɔn agya Nyankopɔn, mmu yɛn ntam atɛn.” Enti Yakob de nʼagya Isak Suro no kaa ntam. ⁵⁴Yakob bɔɔ afɔre wɔ bepɔw no so, na ɔfrɛɛ nʼabusuafo sɛ wɔmmedi aduan; wodii aduan, na wɔdaa bepɔw no so. ⁵⁵Laban sɔree anɔpahema, fee ne nananom ne ne mmabea ano, hyiraa wɔn, na ofii hɔ kɔɔ ne fie.
