Mui 35
1 Gode da Ya: igobema amane sia: i, “Di da Bedele sogega hedolo asili, esaloma. Amoga Nama oloda hamoma. Na da Gode amo di da Isoba: le hobealoba, Na da dima misi.”
Then God said to Jacob, “Arise, go up to Bethel, and settle there. Build an altar there to the God who appeared to you when you fled from your brother Esau.”
2 Amaiba: le, Ya: igobe da ea sosogo fi amola dunu huluane ema gilisi, ilima amane sia: i, “Ga loboga hamoi ‘gode’ liligi dilia gagui amo huluane fadegale fasima. Dilia nigima: dodofelalu, abula gaheabolo salima.
So Jacob told his household and all who were with him, “Get rid of the foreign gods that are among you. Purify yourselves and change your garments.
3 Ninia da amo soge yolesili, Bedele moilaiga masunu. Amoga na da Gode amo da na se nabasu ganodini fidi, amola na lalebe soge huluane E da gilisili lala, amoga na da oloda hamomu.
Then let us arise and go to Bethel. I will build an altar there to God, who answered me in my day of distress. He has been with me wherever I have gone.”
4 Amaiba: le, ilia da loboga hamoi ‘gode’ liligi amola gegagulu ilia ge ganodini sali, amo huluane duga: le, Ya: igobema i. Ya: igobe da amo liligi huluane ‘ouge’ ifa Siegeme soge ganodini amo haguduga uli dogone sali.
So they gave Jacob all their foreign gods and all their earrings, and Jacob buried them under the oak near Shechem.
5 Amalalu, ilia da logoga asili, moilai dunu huluane gadenene esalu da beda: i bagade ba: i. Ilia da beda: iba: le, Ya: igobe ea fi hame se bobogei.
As they set out, a terror from God fell over the surrounding cities, so that they did not pursue Jacob’s sons.
6 Ya: igobe amola ea fi huluane da Luse (wali ea dio da Bedele), Ga: ina: ne soge ganodini amoga doaga: i.
So Jacob and everyone with him arrived in Luz (that is, Bethel) in the land of Canaan.
7 Amoga e da oloda hamone amola amo soge dio eno asuli amo Ele Bedele. Bai amoga e da ea olaba: le hobeale ahoanoba, Gode da ema misi.
There Jacob built an altar, and he called that place El-bethel, because it was there that God had revealed Himself to Jacob as he fled from his brother.
8 Lebega ea hawa: hamosu uda amo Debola da amoga bogoi. Ea da: i hodo ilia da ‘ouge’ ifa Bedele sogebi amoga ga (south) dialu, amo hagudu uli dogone sali. Amaiba: le, amo ifaga ilia da ‘Disu Ouge Ifa’ dio asuli.
Now Deborah, Rebekah’s nurse, died and was buried under the oak below Bethel. So Jacob named it Allon-bachuth.
9 Ya: igobe da Mesoubouda: imia yolesili, bu Ga: ina: ne sogega bu misini, Gode da ema bu misini, ema hahawane dogolegele fidima: ne sia: i.
After Jacob had returned from Paddan-aram, God appeared to him again and blessed him.
10 Gode da ema amane sia: i, “Dia dio da Ya: igobe, be amo fa: no dia dio da Isala: ili.” Amaiba: le, Gode da ema Isala: ili dio asuli.
And God said to him, “Though your name is Jacob, you will no longer be called Jacob. Instead, your name will be Israel.” So God named him Israel.
11 Amola Gode da ema amane sia: i, “Na da Gode Bagadedafa! Di mano bagohame lalelegema! Digaga fi da fifi asi gala bagohame ba: mu, amola di da hina bagade dunu ilima aowa ba: mu.
And God told him, “I am God Almighty. Be fruitful and multiply. A nation—even a company of nations—shall come from you, and kings shall descend from you.
12 Soge Na da A: ibalaha: me amola Aisage elama i dagoi, amo na da dima imunu. Amola fa: no digaga fibi ilima imunu.”
The land that I gave to Abraham and Isaac I will give to you, and I will give this land to your descendants after you.”
13 Amalalu, Gode da yolesili asi.
Then God went up from the place where He had spoken with him.
14 Amogawi, Gode da amo sogebiga ema sia: musa: misiba: le, Ya: igobe da wanonesisu gele bugili, amo Godema modale ligiagama: ne, amo da: iya waini amola olife susuligi sogadigi.
So Jacob set up a pillar in the place where God had spoken with him—a stone marker—and he poured out a drink offering on it and anointed it with oil.
15 E da amo sogebiga dio asuli, amo Bedele.
Jacob called the place where God had spoken with him Bethel.
16 Ya: igobe amola ea sosogo fi da Bedele yolesili, logoga ahoanoba, Efala: de amoga mae doaga: le, La: isele da mano lamusa: se nabi. E da mano lalelegemu logebeba: le, gasa bagade ba: i.
Later, they set out from Bethel, and while they were still some distance from Ephrath, Rachel began to give birth, and her labor was difficult.
17 Mano lamusa: se bagade nabaloba, mano lasu fidisu uda da ema amane sia: i, “La: isele! Mae beda: ma! Dunu mano da lalelegei dagoi.
During her severe labor, the midwife said to her, “Do not be afraid, for you are having another son.”
18 Be La: isele da bogolalu, amola mifo laha da gadenene dagoloba, ea manoma dio asuli amo Benoni. Be Ya: igobe da ema Bediamini dio asuli.
And with her last breath—for she was dying—she named him Ben-oni. But his father called him Benjamin.
19 La: isele da bogoi. Ilia da ea da: i hodo Efala: de moilai logo ahoasu dafulili uli dogoi. Amo moilai ea dio wali da Bedeleheme.
So Rachel died and was buried on the way to Ephrath (that is, Bethlehem).
20 Ya: igobe da dawa: ma: ne gele wanonesisu amoga bugi, amola wali amo da La: isele ea uli dogoi amoga dawa: ma: ne diala.
Jacob set up a pillar on her grave; it marks Rachel’s tomb to this day.
21 Ya: igobe da asili, diasu gagagula heda: i, ea dio Ede amo baligili, ea abula diasu gagui.
Israel again set out and pitched his tent beyond the Tower of Eder.
22 Ya: igobe da amo soge ganodini esaloba, ea mano Liubene da misini, Ya: igobe ea gidesedagi uda amo Biliha ema gilisili golai. Ya: igobe da amo hou nababeba: le, mi hanai galu. Ya: igobe ea dunu mano da fagoyale galu.
While Israel was living in that region, Reuben went in and slept with his father’s concubine Bilhah, and Israel heard about it. Jacob had twelve sons:
23 Lia ea dunu manolali da Liubene (Ya: igobe ea magobo mano) Simione, Lifai, Yuda, Isiga amola Sebiulane.
The sons of Leah were Reuben the firstborn of Jacob, Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar, and Zebulun.
24 La: isele ea dunu manola da Yousefe amola Bediamini.
The sons of Rachel were Joseph and Benjamin.
25 La: isele ea hawa: hamosu uda Biliha amo ea dunu manola da Da: ne amola Na: badalai.
The sons of Rachel’s maidservant Bilhah were Dan and Naphtali.
26 Lia ea hawa: hamosu uda Siliba amo ea dunu manola da Ga: de amola A: sie. Amo dunu mano ilia da Mesoubouda: imia sogega lalelegei.
And the sons of Leah’s maidservant Zilpah were Gad and Asher. These are the sons of Jacob, who were born to him in Paddan-aram.
27 Aisage da Ma: melei amo Hibalone moilaiga gadenene esalu. Amoga Ya: igobe da asi.
Jacob returned to his father Isaac at Mamre, near Kiriath-arba (that is, Hebron), where Abraham and Isaac had stayed.
28 Aisage da lalelegele, ode 180 esalu.
And Isaac lived 180 years.
29 E da amo ode bagohame lai dagoloba, bogoi. Ea mano Iso amola Ya: igobe da ea da: i hodo uli dogone sali.
Then he breathed his last and died and was gathered to his people, old and full of years. And his sons Esau and Jacob buried him.
