创世记 28
1 以撒叫了雅各来，给他祝福，并嘱咐他说：“你不要娶迦南的女子为妻。
And so Isaac clepide Jacob, and blesside hym, and comaundide to hym, and seide, Nyle thou take a wijf of the kyn of Canaan; but go thou,
2 你起身往巴旦·亚兰去，到你外祖彼土利家里，在你母舅拉班的女儿中娶一女为妻。
and walke forth in to Mesopotanye of Sirie, to the hows of Batuel, fadir of thi modir, and take to thee of thennus a wijf of the douytris of Laban, thin vncle.
3 愿全能的 神赐福给你，使你生养众多，成为多族，
Sotheli Almyyti God blesse thee, and make thee to encreesse, and multiplie thee, that thou be in to cumpanyes of puplis;
4 将应许亚伯拉罕的福赐给你和你的后裔，使你承受你所寄居的地为业，就是 神赐给亚伯拉罕的地。”
and God yyue to thee the blessyngis of Abraham, and to thi seed aftir thee, that thou welde the lond of thi pilgrymage, which he bihiyte to thi grauntsir.
5 以撒打发雅各走了，他就往巴旦·亚兰去，到亚兰人彼土利的儿子拉班那里。拉班是雅各、以扫的母舅。
And whanne Ysaac hadde left hym, he yede forth, and cam in to Mesopotanye of Sirie, to Laban, the sone of Batuel of Sirie, the brother of Rebecca, his modir.
6 以扫见以撒已经给雅各祝福，而且打发他往巴旦·亚兰去，在那里娶妻，并见祝福的时候嘱咐他说：“不要娶迦南的女子为妻”，
Forsothe Esau seiy that his fadir hadde blessid Jacob, and hadde sent him in to Mesopotanye of Sirie, that he schulde wedde a wijf of thennus, and that aftir the blessyng he comaundide to Jacob, and seide, Thou schalt not take a wijf of the douytris of Canaan;
7 又见雅各听从父母的话往巴旦·亚兰去了，
and that Jacob obeiede to his fadir `and modir, and yede in to Sirie;
8 以扫就晓得他父亲以撒看不中迦南的女子，
also Esau preuyde that his fadir bihelde not gladli the douytris of Canaan.
9 便往以实玛利那里去，在他二妻之外又娶了玛哈拉为妻。她是亚伯拉罕儿子以实玛利的女儿，尼拜约的妹子。
And he yede to Ismael, and weddide a wijf, with out these whiche he hadde bifore, Melech, the douyter of Ismael, sone of Abraham, the sistir of Nabaioth.
10 雅各出了别是巴，向哈兰走去；
Therfor Jacob yede out of Bersabee, and yede to Aran.
11 到了一个地方，因为太阳落了，就在那里住宿，便拾起那地方的一块石头枕在头下，在那里躺卧睡了，
And whanne he hadde come to sum place, and wolde reste ther inne aftir the goynge doun of the sunne, he took of the stoonus that laien ther, and he puttide vndur his heed, and slepte in the same place.
12 梦见一个梯子立在地上，梯子的头顶着天，有 神的使者在梯子上，上去下来。
And he seiye in sleep a laddir stondynge on the erthe, and the cop ther of touchinge heuene; and he seiy Goddis aungels stiynge vp and goynge doun ther bi,
13 耶和华站在梯子以上，说：“我是耶和华—你祖亚伯拉罕的 神，也是以撒的 神；我要将你现在所躺卧之地赐给你和你的后裔。
and the Lord fastned to the laddir, seiynge to hym, Y am the Lord God of Abraham, thi fadir, and God of Isaac; Y schal yyue to thee and to thi seed the lond in which thou slepist.
14 你的后裔必像地上的尘沙那样多，必向东西南北开展；地上万族必因你和你的后裔得福。
And thi seed schal be as the dust of erthe, thou schalt be alargid to the eest, and west, and north, and south; and alle lynagis of erthe schulen be blessid in thee and in thi seed.
15 我也与你同在。你无论往哪里去，我必保佑你，领你归回这地，总不离弃你，直到我成全了向你所应许的。”
And Y schal be thi kepere, whidur euer thou schalt go; and Y schal lede thee ayen in to this lond, and Y schal not leeue no but Y schal fil alle thingis whiche Y seide.
16 雅各睡醒了，说：“耶和华真在这里，我竟不知道！”
And whanne Jacob hadde wakyd of sleep, he seide, Verili the Lord is in this place, and Y wiste not.
17 就惧怕，说：“这地方何等可畏！这不是别的，乃是 神的殿，也是天的门。”
And he seide dredynge, Hou worschipful is this place! Here is noon other thing no but the hows of God, and the yate of heuene.
18 雅各清早起来，把所枕的石头立作柱子，浇油在上面。
Therfor Jacob roos eerli, and took the stoon which he hadde put vndur his heed, and reiside in to a title, and helde oile aboue.
19 他就给那地方起名叫伯特利；但那地方起先名叫路斯。
And he clepide the name of that citee Bethel, which was clepid Lusa bifore.
20 雅各许愿说：“神若与我同在，在我所行的路上保佑我，又给我食物吃，衣服穿，
Also he auowide a vow, and seide, If God is with me, and kepith me in the weie in which Y go, and yyueth to me looues to ete, and clothis to be clothid,
21 使我平平安安地回到我父亲的家，我就必以耶和华为我的 神。
and Y turne ayen in prosperite to the hows of my fadir, the Lord schal be in to God to me.
22 我所立为柱子的石头也必作 神的殿；凡你所赐给我的，我必将十分之一献给你。”
And this stoon, which Y reiside in to a title, schal be clepid the hows of God, and Y schal offre tithis to thee of alle thingis whiche thou schalt yyue to me.
