< تكوين 28 >
فَاسْتَدْعَى إِسْحاقُ يَعْقُوبَ وَبَارَكَهُ وَأَوْصَاهُ قَائِلاً: «لا تَتَزَوَّجْ مِنْ بَنَاتِ كَنْعَانَ. | ١ 1 |
Isaac called Jacob, blessed him, and commanded him, “You must not take a wife from the Canaanite women.
قُمِ انْطَلِقْ إِلَى سَهْلِ أَرَامَ، إِلَى بَيْتِ بَتُوئِيلَ أَبِي أُمِّكَ، وَتَزَوَّجْ إِحْدَى بَنَاتِ خَالِكَ لابَانَ. | ٢ 2 |
Arise, go to Paddan Aram, to the house of Bethuel your mother's father, and take a wife from there, one of the daughters of Laban, your mother's brother.
وَلْيُبَارِكْكَ اللهُ الْقَدِيرُ وَيُنَمِّكَ وَيُكَثِّرْكَ لِتَكُونَ أُمَّةً تَتَفَرَّعُ مِنْهَا شُعُوبٌ كَثِيرَةٌ، | ٣ 3 |
May God Almighty bless you, make you fruitful and multiply you, so that you may become a multitude of peoples.
وَلْيُعْطِكَ أَنْتَ وَذُرِّيَّتَكَ مَعَكَ بَرَكَةَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ لِتَرِثَ أَرْضَ غُرْبَتِكَ الَّتِي تُقِيمُ فِيهَا الآنَ؛ هَذِهِ الأَرْضَ الَّتِي وَهَبَهَا اللهُ لإِبْرَاهِيمَ». | ٤ 4 |
May he give you the blessing of Abraham, to you, and to your descendants after you, that you may inherit the land where you have been living, which God gave to Abraham.”
ثُمَّ صَرَفَ إِسْحاقُ يَعْقُوبَ فَمَضَى إِلَى سَهْلِ أَرَامَ، حَيْثُ يُقِيمُ لابَانُ بْنُ بَتُوئِيلَ الأَرَامِيُّ أَخُو رِفْقَةَ أُمِّ يَعْقُوبَ وَعِيسُو. | ٥ 5 |
So Isaac sent Jacob away. Jacob went to Paddan Aram, to Laban son of Bethuel the Aramean, the brother of Rebekah, Jacob's and Esau's mother.
وَلَمَّا رَأَى عِيسُو أَنَّ إِسْحاقَ قَدْ بَارَكَ يَعْقُوبَ وَصَرَفَهُ إِلَى سَهْلِ أَرَامَ لِيَخْتَارَ مِنْ هُنَاكَ زَوْجَةً، وَأَوْصَاهُ قَائِلاً: «لا تَتَزَوَّجِ امْرَأَةً كَنْعَانِيَّةً» | ٦ 6 |
Now Esau saw that Isaac had blessed Jacob and sent him away to Paddan Aram, to take a wife from there. He also saw that Isaac had blessed him and given him a command, saying, “You must not take a wife from the women of Canaan.”
وَأَنَّ يَعْقُوبَ أَطَاعَ وَالِدَيْهِ وَارْتَحَلَ إِلَى سَهْلِ أَرَامَ | ٧ 7 |
Esau also saw that Jacob had obeyed his father and his mother, and had gone to Paddan Aram.
وَإِذْ رَأَى عِيسُو أَنَّ بَنَاتِ كَنْعَانَ شِرِّيرَاتٌ لَمْ يَحْظَيْنَ بِرِضَى أَبِيهِ | ٨ 8 |
Esau saw that the women of Canaan did not please Isaac his father.
مَضَى إِلَى إِسْمَاعِيلَ عَمِّهِ وَأَخَذَ مَحْلَةَ ابْنَةَ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، أُخْتَ نَبَايُوتَ، زَوْجَةً لَهُ عَلَى نِسَائِهِ. | ٩ 9 |
So he went to Ishmael, and took, besides the wives that he had, Mahalath the daughter of Ishmael, Abraham's son, the sister of Nebaioth, to be his wife.
أَمَّا يَعْقُوبُ فَتَوَجَّهَ مِنْ بِئْرِ سَبْعٍ نَحْوَ حَارَانَ، | ١٠ 10 |
Jacob left Beersheba and went toward Haran.
فَصَادَفَ مَوْضِعاً قَضَى فِيهِ لَيْلَتَهُ لأَنَّ الشَّمْسَ كَانَتْ قَدْ غَابَتْ، فَأَخَذَ بَعْضَ حِجَارَةِ الْمَوْضِعِ وَتَوَسَّدَهَا وَبَاتَ هُنَاكَ. | ١١ 11 |
He came to a certain place and stayed there all night, because the sun had set. He took one of the stones in that place, put it under his head, and lay down in that place to sleep.
وَرَأَى حُلْماً شَاهَدَ فِيهِ سُلَّماً قَائِمَةً عَلَى الأَرْضِ وَرَأْسُهَا يَمَسُّ السَّمَاءَ، وَمَلائِكَةُ اللهِ تَصْعَدُ وَتَنْزِلُ عَلَيْهَا، | ١٢ 12 |
He dreamed and saw a stairway set up on the earth. Its top reached to heaven and the angels of God were ascending and descending on it.
وَالرَّبُّ نَفْسُهُ وَاقِفٌ فَوْقَهَا يَقُولُ: «أَنَا هُوَ الرَّبُّ إِلَهُ أَبِيكَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَإِلَهُ إِسْحاقَ. إِنَّ الأَرْضَ الَّتِي تَرْقُدُ عَلَيْهَا الآنَ أُعْطِيهَا لَكَ وَلِذُرِّيَّتِكَ، | ١٣ 13 |
Behold, Yahweh stood above it and said, “I am Yahweh, the God of Abraham your father, and the God of Isaac. The land on which you are lying, I will give to you and to your descendants.
الَّتِي سَتَكُونُ كَتُرَابِ الأَرْضِ، وَتَمْتَدُّ غَرْباً وَشَرْقاً، وَشِمَالاً وَجَنُوباً، وَتَتَبَارَكُ بِكَ وَبِذُرِّيَّتِكَ جَمِيعُ شُعُوبِ الأَرْضِ. | ١٤ 14 |
Your descendants will be like the dust of the earth, and you will spread far out to the west, to the east, to the north, and to the south. Through you and through your descendants will all the families of the earth be blessed.
هَا أَنَا مَعَكَ وَأَرْعَاكَ حَيْثُمَا تَذْهَبُ، وَأَرُدُّكَ إِلَى هَذِهِ الأَرْضِ. وَلَنْ أَتْرُكَكَ إِلَى أَنْ أَفِيَ بِكُلِّ مَا وَعَدْتُكَ بِهِ». | ١٥ 15 |
Behold, I am with you, and I will keep you wherever you go. I will bring you into this land again; for I will not leave you. I will do all that I have promised to you.”
ثُمَّ أَفَاقَ يَعْقُوبُ مِنْ نَوْمِهِ وَقَالَ: «حَقّاً إِنَّ الرَّبَّ فِي هَذَا الْمَوْضِعِ وَأَنَا لَمْ أَعْلَمْ!» | ١٦ 16 |
Jacob awoke out of his sleep, and he said, “Surely Yahweh is in this place, and I did not know it.”
وَاعْتَرَاهُ خَوْفٌ وَقَالَ: «مَا أَرْهَبَ هَذَا الْمَكَانَ! مَا هَذَا سِوَى بَيْتِ اللهِ وَهَذَا هُوَ بَابُ السَّمَاءِ». | ١٧ 17 |
He was afraid and said, “How terrifying is this place! This is none other than the house of God. This is the gate of heaven.”
ثُمَّ بَكَّرَ يَعْقُوبُ فِي الصَّبَاحِ، وَأَخَذَ الْحَجَرَ الَّذِي تَوَسَّدَهُ وَنَصَبَهُ عَمُوداً وَصَبَّ عَلَيْهِ زَيْتاً، | ١٨ 18 |
Jacob arose early in the morning and took the stone that he had put under his head. He set it up as a pillar and poured oil upon the top of it.
وَدَعَا الْمَكَانَ «بَيْتَ إِيلَ» (وَمَعْنَاهُ: بَيْتُ اللهِ) وَكَانَ اسْمُ الْمَدِينَةِ أَوَّلاً «لُوزَ». | ١٩ 19 |
He called the name of that place Bethel, but the name of the city originally was Luz.
وَنَذَرَ يَعْقُوبُ نَذْراً قَائِلاً: «إِنْ كَانَ اللهُ مَعِي، وَرَعَانِي فِي هَذِهِ الطَّرِيقِ الَّتِي أَنَا أَسِيرُ فِيهَا وَوَفَّرَ لِي طَعَاماً لِآكُلَ وَثِيَاباً لأَلْبَسَ، | ٢٠ 20 |
Jacob vowed a vow, saying, “If God will be with me and will protect me on this road on which I am walking, and will give me bread to eat, and clothes to wear,
وَعُدْتُ بِسَلامٍ إِلَى بَيْتِ أَبِي، عِنْدَئِذٍ يَكُونُ الرَّبُّ إِلَهاً لِي | ٢١ 21 |
so that I return safely to my father's house, then Yahweh will be my God.
وَيَكُونُ هَذَا الْحَجَرُ الَّذِي نَصَبْتُهُ عَمُوداً بَيْتاً لِلهِ، وَأَدْفَعُ عُشْرَ كُلِّ مَا تَرْزُقُنِي بِهِ». | ٢٢ 22 |
Then this stone that I have set up as a pillar will be a sacred stone. From everything that you give me, I will surely give a tenth back to you.”
