< Genesis 28 >
1 Isaac called Jacob, blessed him, and commanded him, “You shall not take a wife of the daughters of Canaan.
Tinoka’ Ietsàk’ amy zao t’Iakòbe naho tinata’e vaho nafanto’e ami’ty hoe, Ko mañenga valy amo anak’ ampela nte-Kanàneo.
2 Arise, go to Paddan Aram, to the house of Bethuel your mother’s father. Take a wife from there from the daughters of Laban, your mother’s brother.
Mionjona mb’e Padan’ arame, mb’añ’ anjomba’ i Betoele, raen-drene’o añe, vaho mañengà amo anak’ampela’ i Labàne, rahalahin-drene’oo.
3 May God Almighty bless you, and make you fruitful, and multiply you, that you may be a company of peoples,
Ehe te hitahy azo t’i El-Sadai, hampibodobodo naho hañamaro azo, soa te ho firimboñam-pifokoañe.
4 and give you the blessing of Abraham, to you and to your offspring with you, that you may inherit the land where you travel, which God gave to Abraham.”
Le hatolo’e azo naho amo tarira’o mindre ama’oo o fitahiañe i Avrahameo, handovà’o i tane maha-renetane azoy, i natolon’ Añahare amy Avrahamey.
5 Isaac sent Jacob away. He went to Paddan Aram to Laban, son of Bethuel the Syrian, the brother of Rebekah, Jacob’s and Esau’s mother.
Aa le nirahe’ Ietsàke mb’ eo t’Iakòbe, hañavelo mb’e Padan’ arame, mb’ amy Labàne ana’ i Betoele nte-Arame, rahalahi’ i Ribkae rene’ i Esave naho Iakòbe añe.
6 Now Esau saw that Isaac had blessed Jacob and sent him away to Paddan Aram, to take him a wife from there, and that as he blessed him he gave him a command, saying, “You shall not take a wife of the daughters of Canaan;”
Ie nirendre’ i Esave te nitatae’ Ietsake t’Iakòbe naho nirahe’e mb’e Padan’ arame mb’eo hañenga valy boak’añe, ie nitata aze ro namantoke ty hoe, Ko mañenga amo anak’ ampela’ i Kanàneo,
7 and that Jacob obeyed his father and his mother, and was gone to Paddan Aram.
le nihaoñe’ Iakòbe i nafanton-drae’e naho i rene’ey vaho nitaveañe mb’e Padan’ Arame añe,
8 Esau saw that the daughters of Canaan did not please Isaac, his father.
le napota’ i Esave te tsy nòn-drae’e Ietsake o anak’ ampela’ i Kanàneo;
9 So Esau went to Ishmael, and took, in addition to the wives that he had, Mahalath the daughter of Ishmael, Abraham’s son, the sister of Nebaioth, to be his wife.
aa le nimb’ am’ Iesmaèle mb’eo re nañenga i Makalate, rahavave’ i Nebaiote, ana’ Iesmaèle ana’ i Avrahame, ho tovo’ o vali’eo.
10 Jacob went out from Beersheba, and went toward Haran.
Nienga i Beersevà t’Iakòbe naho nionjo mb’e Kharane añe.
11 He came to a certain place, and stayed there all night, because the sun had set. He took one of the stones of the place, and put it under his head, and lay down in that place to sleep.
Ie nahaisake toetse, le nialeñe ao fa nimotake i àndroy. Nangalak’ amo vato eio re naho napo’e ho ankala’ ty añambone’e vaho nandre niròtse amy toetsey.
12 He dreamed and saw a stairway set upon the earth, and its top reached to heaven. Behold, the angels of God were ascending and descending on it.
Nañinofy re, le ingo ty fanongà nitroatse an-tane eo, ty ambone’e naha-takatse an-digiligin-dikerañe eñe vaho inge, niañambone naho nizotsoa’ o anjelin’Añahareo.
13 Behold, the LORD stood above it, and said, “I am the LORD, the God of Abraham your father, and the God of Isaac. I will give the land you lie on to you and to your offspring.
Naheo’e te nijohañe ambone’e ey t’Iehovà, nanao ty hoe: Izaho Iehovà Andrianañaharen-drae’o Avrahame naho Andrianañahare’ Iets’ake. Hatoloko azo naho amo tarira’oo o tane andrea’o henaneo.
14 Your offspring will be as the dust of the earth, and you will spread abroad to the west, and to the east, and to the north, and to the south. In you and in your offspring, all the families of the earth will be blessed.
Ho mira ami’ty debo’ ty tane toy o tarira’oo, ie hangetseketseke mañandrefa naho maniñana naho mañavaratse vaho mañatimo, le ihe naho o tarira’oo ro hitahiañe ze hene hasavereña’ ty tane toy.
15 Behold, I am with you, and will keep you, wherever you go, and will bring you again into this land. For I will not leave you until I have done that which I have spoken of to you.”
Inao, mpindre ama’o iraho, hañambeñe azo ndra aia’aia ty hañaveloa’o, vaho hampoliko an-tane atoy, le tsy hieng’ azo naho tsy henefeko o vinolako ama’oo.
16 Jacob awakened out of his sleep, and he said, “Surely the LORD is in this place, and I did not know it.”
Ie nivañoñe amy firota’ey t’Iakobe le hoe re, Toe an-toetse atoy t’Iehovà fe tsy napotako.
17 He was afraid, and said, “How awesome this place is! This is none other than God’s house, and this is the gate of heaven.”
Nihemban-dre le nanao ty hoe, Akore ty harevendreveñañe etoañe! Ts’inoñe naho tsy anjomban’ Añahare ty etoa vaho itoy i lalambein-dikerañey.
18 Jacob rose up early in the morning, and took the stone that he had put under his head, and set it up for a pillar, and poured oil on its top.
Nitroatse marain-tsikiake t’Iakòbe le rinambe’e i vato napo’e ho ankala’ ty añambone’ey naho natroa’e ho ajiba, vaho nañiliña’e solike ambone’e eo.
19 He called the name of that place Bethel, but the name of the city was Luz at the first.
Natao’e ty hoe Betele ty añara’ i toetsey, fa nitokaveñe ty hoe Loze i tanàñey taolo.
20 Jacob vowed a vow, saying, “If God will be with me, and will keep me in this way that I go, and will give me bread to eat, and clothing to put on,
Nifanta amy zao t’Iakòbe ami’ty hoe, Naho hañimbañ’ ahiko t’i Andrianañahare, hañaro ahy ami’ty liako toy naho hamahañe ahy hànen-ko haneñe naho lamba hisikinañe,
21 so that I come again to my father’s house in peace, and the LORD will be my God,
hibalihako an-kanintsiñe mb’añ’ anjomban-draeko añe, le ho Andrianañahareko t’Iehovà,
22 then this stone, which I have set up for a pillar, will be God’s house. Of all that you will give me I will surely give a tenth to you.”
naho ho anjomban’ Añahare ty vato natroako ho ajiba toy, vaho toe homeako Azo ty faha-folo’ ze hene hatolo’o ahiko.
