1 Eka Nyasaye nowacho ne Jakobo niya, “Aa malo idhi Bethel kendo idag kuno mi iger kendo mar misango ne Nyasaye, mane ofwenyoreni kane iringo ia kuom Esau owadu.”
And God said to Jacob, "Arise, go up to Bethel, and live there. Make an altar there to God, who appeared to you when you fled from your brother Esau."
2 Kuom mano Jakobo nowacho ne joode duto kod ji mane ni kode niya, “Wituru nyiseche mag pinje mamoko ma un-go kendo upwodhru mi urwak lewni maler.
Then Jacob said to his household and to all who were with him, "Get rid of the foreign gods that you have among you, and purify yourselves and change your clothes.
3 Eka ubi mondo wadhiuru Bethel, kuma abiro dhi geroe kendo mar misango ne Nyasaye, mane odwoka e kinde mane an e chandruok malich kendo ma osebedo koda kamoro amora ma asedhiyoe.”
Let us arise and go up to Bethel, and I will make an altar there to God, who answered me in the day of my distress, and has been with me wherever I went."
4 Kuom mano negimiyo Jakobo nyiseche mag pinje mamoko mane gin-go kod stadi mane ni e itgi kendo Jakobo noyikogi e tiend yiend ober man Shekem.
So they gave to Jacob all the foreign gods which were in their possession, and the rings that were in their ears, and Jacob buried them under the oak that was near Shechem.
5 Eka negichako wuoth kendo luoro mar Jehova Nyasaye nomako mier duto mane okiewo kodgi maonge ngʼama nolawo bangʼ-gi.
Then they set out, and a terror of God was upon the cities that were around them, so that they did not pursue the sons of Jacob.
6 Jakobo kod ji duto mane ni kode nochopo Luz (ma tiende ni Bethel) e piny Kanaan.
So Jacob came to Luz (that is, Bethel), which is in the land of Canaan, he and all the people who were with him.
7 Kanyo Jakobo nogero kendo mar misango kendo noluongo kanyo ni El Bethel, nikech kanyo ema ne Nyasaye ofwenyorene kane oringo owadgi.
He built an altar there, and called the place El Bethel, because there God had revealed himself to him when he was fleeing from his brother.
8 Debora, ma japit Rebeka notho kendo noyike e tiend yiend ober machiegni gi Bethel. Kuom mano nochak kanyo ni Allon Bakuth.
Now Deborah, Rebekah's nurse, died, and she was buried under an oak outside Bethel. So he called its name Allon Bakuth.
9 Bangʼ ka Jakobo nosea Padan Aram, Nyasaye nochako ofwenyorene kendo nogwedhe.
And God appeared to Jacob again after he returned from Paddan Aram, and blessed him.
10 Nyasaye nowachone niya, “Kata obedo ni nyingi en Jakobo to ok nochak oluongi kamano to koro ibiro luongi ni Israel.” Omiyo nochake ni Israel.
God said to him, "Your name is Jacob. Your name will no longer be called Jacob, but your name will be Israel." So he called his name Israel.
11 Kendo Nyasaye nowachone niya, “An Nyasaye Maratego, nywolri kendo imedri. Ogendini kod dhout ogendini noa kuomi kendo ruodhi nowuog kuomi.
And God said to him, "I am El Shaddai. Be fruitful and multiply. A nation and a company of nations will come from you, and kings will come from your body.
12 Piny mane amiyo Ibrahim kod Isaka bende abiro miyi kaachiel gi nyikwayi.”
The land which I gave to Abraham and Isaac, I will give to you, and I will give the land to your descendants after you."
13 Eka Nyasaye nodhi e polo moweye kama ne giwuoyoe kodeno.
Then God went up from him in the place where he spoke with him.
14 Jakobo nochungo siro mar kidi kanyono mane Nyasaye owuoyoe kode, kendo noolo ewi sirono misango miolo piny bende noolo misango mar mo ewi siro.
And Jacob set up a standing-stone in the place where he spoke with him, a pillar of stone. And he poured out a drink offering on it, and poured oil on it.
15 Jakobo nochako kanyo mane Nyasaye owuoyoe kodeno ni Bethel.
Jacob called the name of the place where God spoke with him Bethel.
16 Eka negiwuok gia Bethel. Kane gisedhi mochwalore gi Efrath, muoch nochako kayo Rael kendo nochandore ahinya.
Then they set out from Bethel. There was still some distance to come to Ephrath, and Rachel went into labor, and her labor was difficult.
17 E kinde mane muoch kayeno, jacholo nowachone niya, “Kik iluor nikech inywolo wuowi machielo.”
When she was in the difficult labor, the midwife said to her, "Do not be afraid, for now you have another son."
18 Kane chunye chiegni chot nochako wuodeno ni Ben-Oni. To wuon mare to nochake ni Benjamin.
It happened, as her life was departing (for she died), that she named him Ben-Oni, but his father named him Benjamin.
19 Kuom mano Rael notho kendo nokunye e yo madhi Efrath (ma tiende ni Bethlehem).
So Rachel died and was buried on the way to Ephrath (that is, Bethlehem).
20 Jakobo noketo siro ewi liend Rael kendo nyaka chil kawuono sirono obet kar liend Rael.
Jacob set up a standing-stone on her grave. It is the standing-stone of Rachel's grave to this day.
21 Israel nochako odhi nyime giwuoth kendo noguro hembe tok oinga mar Migdal Eder.
And Israel traveled and pitched his tent beyond Migdal Eder.
22 Kane oyudo Israel dak kuno, Reuben nodhi moterore gi Bilha jatich ma nyako mar wuon-gi mi Israel nowinjo wachno. Jakobo ne nigi yawuowi apar gariyo:
It happened, while Israel lived in that land, that Reuben went and slept with Bilhah, his father's secondary wife, and Israel heard about it. Now the sons of Jacob were twelve.
23 Yawuot Lea ne gin: Reuben wuod Jakobo makayo, Simeon, Lawi, Juda, Isakar kod Zebulun.

And the sons of Zilpah, Leah's servant: Gad and Asher. These are the sons of Jacob who were born to him in Paddan Aram.
27 Jakobo noduogo dala ir wuon-gi Isaka Mamre machiegni gi Kiriath Arba (ma tiende ni Hebron), kumane Ibrahim kod Isaka odakie.
So Jacob came to Isaac his father at Mamre in Kiriath Arba (which is Hebron), where Abraham and Isaac had sojourned.
28 Isaka nodak higni mia achiel gi piero aboro.
Now the days of Isaac were one hundred eighty years.
29 Eka Isaka notho kendo noluwo kwerene ka oti kendo hike ngʼeny. Kendo yawuot Esau kod Jakobo noyike.
And Isaac took his last breath and died, and was gathered to his people, old and full of days. And his sons Esau and Jacob buried him.
