Chakruok 35

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.”

Then said God unto Jacob, Arise, go up to Bethel, and dwell there, —and make there an altar, to the GOD who appeared unto thee, when thou fleddest from the face of Esau thy brother.

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.

And Jacob said unto his house, and unto all who were with him, —Put away the gods of the alien which are in your midst, and purify yourselves, and change your garments;

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.”

And let us arise, and go up to Beth-el, —that I may make there an altar to the GOD who answered me in the day of my distress, and was with me in the way that 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 unto Jacob all the gods of the alien which were in their hand, and the earrings which were in their ears, —and Jacob hid them under the oak, which was by Shechem.

5 Eka negichako wuoth kendo luoro mar Jehova Nyasaye nomako mier duto mane okiewo kodgi maonge ngʼama nolawo bangʼ-gi.

And they brake up, —and it came to pass that the terror of God, was on the cities which were round about them, so that they pursued not after the sons of Jacob.

6 Jakobo kod ji duto mane ni kode nochopo Luz (ma tiende ni Bethel) e piny Kanaan.

And Jacob came in towards Luz, which was in the land of Canaan, the same, is Beth-el, —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.

And he built there an altar, and called the place El-Beth-el, —because, there, God revealed himself unto him, when he fled from the face of his brother,

8 Debora, ma japit Rebeka notho kendo noyike e tiend yiend ober machiegni gi Bethel. Kuom mano nochak kanyo ni Allon Bakuth.

And Deborah, Rebekah’s nurse died, and was buried below Beth-el, under the oak, —so the name thereof was called, Allon-bacuth.

9 Bangʼ ka Jakobo nosea Padan Aram, Nyasaye nochako ofwenyorene kendo nogwedhe.

And God appeared unto Jacob again, when he came in from Padan-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.

And God said to him, Thy name, is Jacob, —Thy name shall no longer be called Jacob But, Israel, shall be thy name. 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 GOD Almighty! Be fruitful and multiply, A nation, and a multitude of nations shall spring from thee, —And, kings, from thy loins, shall come forth;

12 Piny mane amiyo Ibrahim kod Isaka bende abiro miyi kaachiel gi nyikwayi.”

And, the land which I gave to Abraham and to Isaac, To thee, will I give it, —And to thy seed after thee, will I give the land.

13 Eka Nyasaye nodhi e polo moweye kama ne giwuoyoe kodeno.

And God went up from him at the place where he had spoken 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 pillar in the place where he had spoken with him, a pillar of stone, —and he poured out thereon a drink-offering, and poured thereon oil.

15 Jakobo nochako kanyo mane Nyasaye owuoyoe kodeno ni Bethel.

And Jacob called the name of the place where God had spoken with him, Beth-el.

16 Eka negiwuok gia Bethel. Kane gisedhi mochwalore gi Efrath, muoch nochako kayo Rael kendo nochandore ahinya.

Then brake they up from Beth-el, and it came to pass when there was yet a stretch of country, to enter into Ephrath, that Rachel was in childbirth, and had hard-labour in her child-birth.

17 E kinde mane muoch kayeno, jacholo nowachone niya, “Kik iluor nikech inywolo wuowi machielo.”

So it came to pass when she was in hard-labour in her child-birth, that the midwife said to her—Do not fear, for this also of thine, is, a son.

18 Kane chunye chiegni chot nochako wuodeno ni Ben-Oni. To wuon mare to nochake ni Benjamin.

And it came to pass when her soul was going forth—for she died, that she called his name Ben-oni, —but, his father, called him, Ben-jamin.

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, the same, is Bethlehem.

20 Jakobo noketo siro ewi liend Rael kendo nyaka chil kawuono sirono obet kar liend Rael.

And Jacob set up a pillar, over her grave, —the same, is—The Pillar of the Grave of Rachel until this day.

21 Israel nochako odhi nyime giwuoth kendo noguro hembe tok oinga mar Migdal Eder.

Then Israel brake up, —and spread his tent at a distance from 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:

And it came to pass while Israel inhabited that land, that Reuben went and lay with Bilhah his father’s concubine; and Israel heard of it. And so the Sons of Israel came to be Twelve.

23 Yawuot Lea ne gin: Reuben wuod Jakobo makayo, Simeon, Lawi, Juda, Isakar kod Zebulun.

The sons of Leah, the firstborn of Jacob, Reuben, —And Simeon and Levi and Judah, and Issachar and Zebulon:

24 Yawuot Rael ne gin: Josef kod Benjamin.

The sons of Rachel, Joseph and Benjamin:

25 Yawuot Bilha, jatich Rael madhako ne gin: Dan kod Naftali.

And the sons of Bilhah, handmaid of Rachel, Dan, and Naphtali:

26 Yawuot Zilpa jatich Lea madhako ne gin: Gad kod Asher. Magi ema ne yawuot Jakobo mane onywolone Padan Aram.

And the sons of Zilpah, handmaid of Leah, Gad and Asher: These, are the sons of Jacob, who were born to him, in Padan-aram.

27 Jakobo noduogo dala ir wuon-gi Isaka Mamre machiegni gi Kiriath Arba (ma tiende ni Hebron), kumane Ibrahim kod Isaka odakie.

Then came Jacob unto Isaac his father, to Mamre, the city of Arba, —the same, is Hebron, where had sojourned Abraham and Isaac.

28 Isaka nodak higni mia achiel gi piero aboro.

And the days of Isaac came to be—a hundred and eighty years.

29 Eka Isaka notho kendo noluwo kwerene ka oti kendo hike ngʼeny. Kendo yawuot Esau kod Jakobo noyike.

And Isaac breathed his last, and died and was added unto his people, old, and satisfied with days, —and Esau and Jacob his sons buried him.
