For what didst thou hide to break away, and didst steal me, and didst not announce to me? and I will send thee away with gladness and with songs, with the drum and with the harp?

And didst not permit me to kiss my sons and to my daughters? now thou wert foolish doing it

It is for the power of my hand mighty to do with you evil: and the God of your father yesterday spake to me, saying, Watch to thyself from speaking with Jacob from good to evil.

And Jacob will answer and say to Laban, Because I was afraid; for I said, Lest thou wilt tear away my daughters from me;

With whom thou shalt find thy gods, he shall not live: before our brethren, behold for thyself what is with me and take to thee: and Jacob knew not that Rachel stole them.

And Laban will go into Jacob's tent, and into Leah's tent, and into the tent of the two maids, and he found them not And he will go out from the tent of Leah and will go into Rachel's tent

And she will say to her father, My lord will not be angry in his eyes, that I shall not be able to rise from thy face, for the way of women is to me. And he will search and he found not the family gods,

And it kindled to Jacob, and he will contend with Laban, and Jacob will answer and say to Laban, What my fault? what my sin that thou didst hotly pursue after me?

That thou didst feel all my vessels, what didst thou find of all the vessels of thy house? Set here before my brethren and thy brethren, and they shall decide between us two.

The torn I brought not to thee; I shall bear the blame of it; from my hand thou will seek it, thefts of the day, and thefts of the night

I was in the day, the drought consumed me, and cold in the night, and sleep will flee away from mine eyes.

Here to me twenty years in thy house; I served thee fourteen years for thy two daughters, and six years for thy sheep; and thou wilt change my hire ten portions.

And Laban will answer and say to Jacob, The daughters, my daughters, and the sons, my sons, and the sheep, my sheep, and all which thou sawest, this to me, and to my daughters: what shall I do to these this day, or to their sons which they brought forth?

And Jacob will say to his brethren, Gather stones; and they will take stones and make a heap; and they will eat there upon the heap.

And Laban will say, This heap a witness between me and between thee this day, for this its name was called Gilead:

If thou shalt afflict my daughters, and if thou shalt take wives to my daughters, no man is with us, seeing God a witness between me and between thee.

And Laban will say to Jacob, Behold this heap; and behold the pillar which I cast between me and between thee.

A witness this heap, and a witness the pillar, if I will not pass over this heap to thee, and thou shalt not pass over to me, this heap and this pillar for evil.

And Jacob will sacrifice a sacrifice upon the mount, and will call to his brethren to eat bread, and they will eat bread, and they will pass the night in the mount

And Laban will rise up in the morning and will kiss his sons and his daughters, and will bless them: and Laban will go and turn back to his place.

And Jacob will send messengers before his face to Esau his brother, to the land of Seir, the field of Adam.

And he will command them, saying, Thus shall ye say to my lord to Esau, Thus thy servant Jacob said, With Laban I sojourned and lingered till now.

And there will be to me ox and ass, sheep and servant, and maid; and I shall send to announce to my lord to find grace in thine eyes.

And the messengers will turn back to Jacob, saying, We came to thy brother, to Esau, and also he came to thy meeting, and four hundred men with him.

And Jacob will be greatly afraid and it will press upon him: and he will divide the people which were with him, and the sheep and the oxen, and the camels, into two camps.

And he will say, If Esau shall come to the one camp and smite it, and the remaining camp was to escape.

And Jacob will say, God of my father Abraham, and God of my father Isaak, Jehovah having said to me, Turn back to thy land and to thy family, and I will do well with thee.

I was little from all the kindness and from all the truth which thou didst to thy servant; for with my rod I passed over this Jordan, and now I became into two camps.

And thou saidst, Doing well I will do well with thee, and I set thy seed as the sand of the sea, which shall not be counted for multitude.

And he will pass the night them in that night, and he will take from what came into his hand, a gift to Esau his brother.

Two hundred she-goats, and twenty he-goats, two hundred sheep and twenty rams.

And he will give into the hand of his servants a flock, a flock itself alone; and he will say to his servants, Pass over before me, and ye shall put enlargement between flock and between flock.

And he will command the first, saying, When Esau my brother shall meet thee and ask thee saying, To whom thou? and whither wilt thou go? and to whom these before thee?

And thou saying, To thy servant, to Jacob: this a gift sent to my lord to Esau, and behold also he is behind us.

And he will command also the second, also the third, also all going behind the flocks, saying, According to this word shall ye speak to Esau in your finding him.

And he will rise in that night and take his two wives and his two maids, and his eleven sons, and he will pass over the passage of Jabbok.

Andhewill take them and will cause them to pass through the torrent, and he will cause to pass through what is to him.

And he will say to him, What thy name? and he will say, Jacob.

And Jacob will call the name of the place, the face of God: for I saw God lace to face, and my soul shall be saved.

And the sun will rise to him when he passed through the face of God, and he limped upon his thigh.

For this, the sons of Israel will not eat the sinew which dried up which is upon the hollow of the thigh, even till this day; for he touched upon the hollow of Jacob's thigh in the sinew which dried up.

And Jacob will lift up his eyes and will see, and behold Esau came, and with him four hundred men. And he will divide the children to Leah and to Rachel and to the two maids.

And he passed through before them, and he will bow himself upon the earth seven times till he brought himself near to his brother.

And Esau will run to his meeting and he will embrace him and will fall upon his neck and will kiss him, and they will weep.

And he will lift up his eyes and will see the women and the children, and he will say, To whom these to thee? And he will say, The children with whom God compassionated thy servant.

And he will say, What to thee all this camp which I met? and he will say, To find grace in thine eyes, my lord.

And Esau will say, There is much to me, my brother; what is to thee shall be to thee.

Take now my blessing which was brought to thee, for God compassionated me, and because all things are to me; and he will press upon him, and he will take.

And he will say to him, My lord knew that the children are tender, and the sheep and the oxen bringing forth with me, and they overdrive them one day all the flock will die.

Now my lord, shall pass through before his servant, and I will drive out softly, according to the foot of the work before me and according to the foot of the children, till I shall come to my lord to Seir.

And Esau will say, I will leave now with thee, from the people which are to me; and he will say, For what this? I shall find grace in the eyes of my lord.

And Esau will turn back in that day on his way to Seir.

And Jacob will remove to the booths, and he will build for himself a house, and he made booths for his cattle; for this he called the name of the place Booths.

And Jacob will go to Shalem, a city of Shechem, which is in the land of Canaan, in his going from Padan Aram; and he will encamp before the city.

And his soul will cleave to Dinah, the daughter of Jacob, and he will love the maiden, and he will speak to the heart of the maiden.

And Shechem will say to Hamor his father, saying, Take to me this maid for a wife.

And Hamor the father of Shechem will go forth to Jacob to speak to him.

And the sons of Jacob came from the field when they having heard: and the men will be grieved, and it will be kindled to them exceedingly because he did folly in Israel, to lie with Jacob's daughter; and thus it shall not be done.

And Hamor will speak with them, saying, The soul of Shechem my son, was attached with his soul to your daughter; now give her to him for a wife.

And contract ye marriages with us; ye shall give your daughters to us, and ye shall take our daughters to you.

And Shechem will say to her father, and to her brethren, Shall I find favor in your eyes? and what ye shall say to me I will give.

Increase to me greatly the dowry and gift, and I will give according to that ye shall say to me; and ye shall give to me this maiden for a wife.

And they will say to them, We shall not be able to do this word, to give our sister to a man which to him is uncircumcision; for this a reproach to us.

But in this will we consent to you, if ye will be as we to circumcise to you every male;

And we will give our daughters to you, and we will take your daughters to us, and we will dwell with you and be one people.

And if ye will not listen to us to be circumcised, and we will take out daughter and depart

And the youth deferred not to do the word, for he delighted in Jacob's daughter, and he was honorable more than all his father's house.

And Hamor will come, and Shechem his son, to the gate of their city, and they will speak to the men of the city, saying,

These men they are living peacefully with us, and they shall dwell in the land, and traffic in it; and the land, behold, being broad to the hands be. fore them: we will take their daughters to us for wives, and give our daughters to them.

Only in this will the men consent to us to dwell with us to be for one people, in the circumcising to us every male according as they having been circumcised.

Their cattle and their possession and all their quadrupeds, shall they not be to us? only we will consent to them, and they will dwell with us.

And to Hamor and to Shechem his son, will listen all going out of the gate of the city: and they will circumcise every male, all going out of the gate of the city.

And it will be in the third day, in their having pain, and the two sons of Jacob, Simeon and Levi, Dinah's brethren, will take a man his sword, and will go against the city securely, and will kill every male.

And Jacob will say to Simeon and to Levi, Ye troubled me to make me evil to him dwelling in the land to the Canaanites, and to the Perizzites and I men of number, and they will gather together and smite me, and I all be destroyed, and my house.

And they will say, Shall he do to our sister as an harlot?

And God will say to Jacob, Arise, go up to the house of God and dwell there: and make there an altar to God, having been seen to thee in thy fleeing from the face of Esau thy brother.

And Jacob will say to his house, and to all which are with him, Put away the strange gods which are among you, and be cleansed and change your garments.

And we will arise and go to the house of God; and I will make there an altar to God, having answered me in the day of my distress; and he will be with me in the way which I go.

And they will give to Jacob all the strange gods which are in their hand and the earrings which are in their ears, and Jacob will hide them under the turpentine tree which is in Shechem.

And Jacob will come to Luz, which is in the land of Canaan (this the house of God), he and all the people which are with him.
