Genesis 31:37

31:37 When you searched through all my goods, did you find anything that belonged to you? ¹  Set it here before my relatives and yours, ²  and let them settle the dispute between the two of us! ³ 

Genesis 31:32

31:32 Whoever has taken your gods will be put to death! ⁴  In the presence of our relatives ⁵  identify whatever is yours and take it.” ⁶  (Now Jacob did not know that Rachel had stolen them.) ⁷ 

¹ tn Heb “what did you find from all the goods of your house?”

² tn Heb “your relatives.” The word “relatives” has not been repeated in the translation here for stylistic reasons.

³ tn Heb “that they may decide between us two.”

⁴ tn Heb “With whomever you find your gods, he will not live.”

⁵ tn Heb “brothers.”

⁶ tn Heb “recognize for yourself what is with me and take for yourself.”

⁷ tn The disjunctive clause (introduced here by a vav [ו] conjunction) provides supplemental material that is important to the story. Since this material is parenthetical in nature, it has been placed in parentheses in the translation.
