Genesis 35
1 And God said to Jacob, Arise, go up to Bethel, and dwell there, and make an altar there to God, who appeared to thee when thou fled from the face of Esau thy brother.
Katonda n’agamba Yakobo nti, “Golokoka oyambuke e Beseri, obeere eyo, ozimbire Katonda ekyoto, eyakulabikira bwe wadduka muganda wo Esawu.”
2 Then Jacob said to his household, and to all who were with him, Put away the foreign gods that are among you, and purify yourselves, and change your garments.
Awo Yakobo n’agamba ab’omu nnyumba ye ne bonna abaali naye nti, “Muggyeewo bakatonda abalala abali nammwe, mwetukuze mukyuse ebyambalo byammwe,
3 And let us arise, and go up to Bethel, and I will make there an altar to God, who answered me in the day of my distress, and was with me on the way which I went.
tulyoke twambuke tugende e Beseri ndyoke nzimbire Katonda ekyoto, Katonda eyanziramu mu nnaku ez’okunakuwala kwange, era abadde nange buli gye ŋŋenze.
4 And they gave to Jacob all the foreign gods which were in their hand, and the rings which were in their ears. And Jacob hid them under the oak that was by Shechem.
Awo ne bawa Yakobo bakatonda abalala bonna be baalina, n’empeta ezaali ku matu gaabwe; Yakobo n’abiziika wansi w’omuvule ogwali okumpi ne Sekemu.”
5 And they journeyed, and a terror of God was upon the cities that were round about them, and they did not pursue after the sons of Jacob.
Bwe baali batambula, entiisa ya Katonda n’egwa ku bibuga ebyali bibeetoolodde, ne batagoberera baana ba Yakobo.
6 So Jacob came to Luz, which is in the land of Canaan (the same is Bethel), he and all the people that were with him.
Yakobo n’ajja e Luzi, ye Beseri, ekiri mu nsi ya Kanani, ye n’abantu bonna abaali naye.
7 And he built there an altar, and called the place El-bethel, because God was revealed to him there, when he fled from the face of his brother.
N’azimba eyo ekyoto, n’akituuma Erubeeseeri. Kubanga eyo Katonda gye yamweragira bwe yadduka muganda we.
8 And Deborah Rebekah's nurse died, and she was buried below Bethel under the oak. And the name of it was called Allon-bacuth.
Debola omujjanjabi wa Lebbeeka n’afa n’aziikibwa wansi w’omuvule, wansi wa Beseri kyekyava kiyitibwa Alooninakusi.
9 And God appeared to Jacob again, when he came from Paddan-aram, and blessed him.
Yakobo bwe yava mu Padanalaamu Katonda n’amulabikira, n’amuwa omukisa.
10 And God said to him, Thy name is Jacob. Thy name shall not be called any more Jacob, but Israel shall be thy name. And he called his name Israel.
Katonda n’amugamba nti, “Erinnya lyo ggwe Yakobo; tokyaddayo kuyitibwa Yakobo, erinnya lyo linaabanga Isirayiri.” Bwe kityo erinnya lye ne liba Isirayiri.
11 And God said to him, I am God Almighty. Be fruitful and multiply. A nation and a company of nations shall be of thee, and kings shall come out of thy loins.
Katonda n’amugamba nti, “Ndi Katonda Ayinzabyonna: zaala oyale, eggwanga n’enkuyanja y’amawanga biriva mu ggwe, ne bakabaka balisibuka mu ggwe.
12 And the land which I gave to Abraham and Isaac, I will give it to thee, and I will give the land to thy seed after thee.
Ensi gye nawa Ibulayimu ne Isaaka, ndigikuwa ggwe, era ndigiwa n’ezzadde lyo eririddawo.”
13 And God went up from him in the place where he spoke with him.
Awo Katonda n’alinnya okuva waali mu kifo we yayogerera naye.
14 And Jacob set up a pillar 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.
Yakobo n’asimba empagi mu kifo Katonda mwe yayogerera naye, empagi ey’ejjinja; n’agiyiwako ekiweebwayo ekyokunywa, n’ayiwako n’amafuta.
15 And Jacob called the name of the place where God spoke with him, Bethel.
Yakobo ekifo Katonda we yayogerera naye n’akiyita Beseri.
16 And they journeyed from Bethel. And there was still some distance to come to Ephrath, and Rachel travailed, and she had hard labor.
Bwe baava e Beseri, era nga bakyali walako okuva Efulasi, Laakeeri n’alumwa, n’alumwa ddala nnyo.
17 And it came to pass, when she was in hard labor, that the midwife said to her, Fear not, for now thou shall have another son.
Bwe yali ng’alumwa bw’atyo omuzaalisa n’amugamba nti, “Totya kubanga kaakano onoofuna omwana omulala owoobulenzi.”
18 And it came to pass, as her soul was departing (for she died), that she called his name Ben-oni, but his father called him Benjamin.
Omwoyo bwe gwali gumuggwaamu ng’afa, n’amutuuma Benoni, naye kitaawe n’amuyita Benyamini.
19 And Rachel died, and was buried on the way to Ephrath (the same is Bethlehem).
Awo Laakeeri n’afa n’aziikibwa ku kkubo erigenda Efulasi (ye Besirekemu).
20 And Jacob set up a pillar upon her grave, the same is the Pillar of Rachel's grave to this day.
Yakobo n’asimba empagi ku malaalo ge, y’empagi y’amalaalo ga Laakeeri, ekyaliwo n’okutuusa kaakano.
21 And Israel journeyed, and spread his tent beyond the tower of Eder.
Isirayiri ne yeeyongera okutambula, n’akuba eweema ye, emabega w’omunaala gwa Ederi.
22 And it came to pass, while Israel dwelt in that land, that Reuben went and lay with Bilhah his father's concubine, and Israel heard of it. Now the sons of Jacob were twelve.
Isirayiri bwe yali ng’ali mu nsi omwo Lewubeeni n’agenda ne yeebaka ne Biira omuweereza wa kitaawe, Isirayiri n’akiwulira. Batabani ba Yakobo baali kkumi n’ababiri.
23 The sons of Leah: Reuben, Jacob's firstborn, and Simeon, and Levi, and Judah, and Issachar, and Zebulun.
Batabani ba Leeya baali: Lewubeeni mutabani wa Yakobo omubereberye, ne Simyoni, ne Leevi, ne Yuda, ne Isakaali ne Zebbulooni.
24 The sons of Rachel: Joseph and Benjamin.
Batabani ba Laakeeri ye: Yusufu ne Benyamini.
25 And the sons of Bilhah, Rachel's handmaid: Dan and Naphtali.
Batabani ba Biira, omuweereza wa Laakeeri be ba: Ddaani ne Nafutaali.
26 And the sons of Zilpah, Leah's handmaid: Gad and Asher. These are the sons of Jacob, who were born to him in Paddan-aram.
Batabani ba Zirupa omuweereza wa Leeya be ba: Gaadi ne Aseri. Bano be batabani ba Yakobo abaamuzaalirwa mu Padanalaamu.
27 And Jacob came to Isaac his father to Mamre, to Kiriath-arba (the same is Hebron), where Abraham and Isaac sojourned.
Awo Yakobo n’ajja eri kitaawe Isaaka e Mamule, oba Kiriyasaluba, ye Kebbulooni, Ibulayimu ne Isaaka mwe baatuulanga.
28 And the days of Isaac were a hundred and eighty years.
Isaaka yawangaala emyaka kikumi mu kinaana.
29 And Isaac gave up the spirit, and died, and was gathered to his people, old and full of days. And Esau and Jacob his sons buried him.
Isaaka n’afa ng’akaddiye nnyo n’agenda abantu be gye bagenda, ng’amaze ennaku nnyingi, batabani be Esawu ne Yakobo ne bamuziika.
