Genesis 28
1 So Isaac called for Jacob and blessed him. “Do not take a wife from the Canaanite women,” he commanded.
Hatdawkvah, Isak ni Jakop hah a kaw teh yawhawinae a poe, tawngtang lawk a thui e teh, Kanaan canunaw thung e yu na lat mahoeh.
2 “Go at once to Paddan-aram, to the house of your mother’s father Bethuel, and take a wife from among the daughters of Laban, your mother’s brother.
Thaw nateh Paddanaram ram dawk na manu e a na pa Bethuel im vah cet. Haw e na manu e a thangroi Laban canunaw thung dawk hoi na yu hah lat.
3 May God Almighty bless you and make you fruitful and multiply you, so that you may become a company of peoples.
Bangpueng ka sak thai e Cathut ni yawhawi na poe naseh, miphun moi kapap lah na pung thai nahanlah ca catoun moi na tawn sak teh na pungdaw sak naseh.
4 And may He give the blessing of Abraham to you and your descendants, so that you may possess the land where you dwell as a foreigner, the land God gave to Abraham.”
Imyin lah onae ram, Cathut ni Abraham koe a poe e heh na coe nahanlah Abraham yawhawinae teh na coe sak awh naseh, nang hoi na canaw hoi telah lawk a thui.
5 So Isaac sent Jacob to Paddan-aram, to Laban son of Bethuel the Aramean, the brother of Rebekah, who was the mother of Jacob and Esau.
Hatdawkvah, Isak ni Jakop teh yout a ceisak teh, Paddanaram ram e Jakop hoi Esaw e manu Rebekah e a thangroi Syria tami Bethuel capa Laban koevah a cei.
6 Now Esau learned that Isaac had blessed Jacob and sent him to Paddan-aram to take a wife there, commanding him, “Do not marry a Canaanite woman,”
Isak ni Jakop hah yawhawi a poe teh a yu la hanlah Paddanaram ram lah a patoun. Yawhawi a poe nah Kanaan ram e tanglanaw yu lah na lat mahoeh telah lawk a thui.
7 and that Jacob had obeyed his father and mother and gone to Paddan-aram.
Jakop ni a manu hoi a na pa e lawk hah a ngai teh, Paddanaram ram dawk a cei.
8 And seeing that his father Isaac disapproved of the Canaanite women,
Kanaan ram e tangla naw ni a na pa Isak lungyouk sak hoeh toe tie a hmu navah,
9 Esau went to Ishmael and married Mahalath, the sister of Nebaioth and daughter of Abraham’s son Ishmael, in addition to the wives he already had.
Esaw ni Ishmael koevah a cei teh a tawn tangcoung a yunaw hloilah, Abraham capa Ishmael e canu Mahalath Nebaioth tawncanu hah a yu lah a la.
10 Meanwhile Jacob left Beersheba and set out for Haran.
Jakop teh Beersheba hoi a kamthaw teh Haran lah a cei.
11 On reaching a certain place, he spent the night there because the sun had set. And taking one of the stones from that place, he put it under his head and lay down to sleep.
Hmuen buet touh koe a pha teh kanîloum toung dawkvah a roe. Talung buet touh hah a la teh lahoung lah a lahoung teh i hanlah a yan.
12 And Jacob had a dream about a ladder that rested on the earth with its top reaching up to heaven, and God’s angels were going up and down the ladder.
Hahoi, mang a mang teh talai van khalai a kâdo teh a donghmo ni kalvan a pha. Hote khalai dawk Cathut e kalvantaminaw a kumluen awh.
13 And there at the top the LORD was standing and saying, “I am the LORD, the God of your father Abraham and the God of Isaac. I will give you and your descendants the land on which you now lie.
A lathueng vah, BAWIPA a kangdue teh, Kai teh BAWIPA, na min Abraham e Cathut hoi Isak e Cathut lah ka o, na inae ram hah nang hoi na ca catounnaw ka poe han;
14 Your descendants will be like the dust of the earth, and you will spread out to the west and east and north and south. All the families of the earth will be blessed through you and your offspring.
Na ca catounnaw teh talai e vaiphu yit touh a pha awh han. Kanîtho, kanîloum, atunglah, akalah na pungdaw awh han. Nang pawlawk dawk hoi miphunnaw pueng ni yawhawinae a hmu awh han.
15 Look, I am with you, and I will watch over you wherever you go, and I will bring you back to this land. For I will not leave you until I have done what I have promised you.”
Khenhaw! nang koevah ka o. Na ceinae pueng koe na kountouk vaiteh, hete ram dawk bout na bankhai awh han. Nang koe ka dei e ka sak hoehnahlan pueng teh na cettakhai mahoeh telah ati.
16 When Jacob woke up, he thought, “Surely the LORD is in this place, and I was unaware of it.”
Jakop ni a kâhlaw teh, hete hmuen koe BAWIPA teh ao roeroe ka panuek laipalah ka o, telah ati.
17 And he was afraid and said, “How awesome is this place! This is none other than the house of God; this is the gate of heaven!”
Hatdawkvah, a taki teh, het hmuen heh takikatho e lah ao! hete heh hmuen alouke nahoeh, Cathut e im, kalvan longkha lah ao, telah ati. Jakop ni amom a thaw teh a lahoung e talung hah a lah teh talung lah a ung teh a van vah satui hah a awi.
18 Early the next morning, Jacob took the stone that he had placed under his head, and he set it up as a pillar. He poured oil on top of it,
Jakop ni amom a thaw teh a lahoung e talung hah a lah teh lungkhoung a ung teh, avan vah satui hah a awi.
19 and he called that place Bethel, though previously the city had been named Luz.
Hote hmuen hah Bethel telah a phung. Hote kho teh hmaloe vah Luz lah ao.
20 Then Jacob made a vow, saying, “If God will be with me and watch over me on this journey, and if He will provide me with food to eat and clothes to wear,
Jakop ni, apa im dawk lungmawngcalah ka ban thai nahan, kai koe Cathut hah ao teh ka ceinae lam hah a ring teh,
21 so that I may return safely to my father’s house, then the LORD will be my God.
ca han e vaiyei hoi kâkhu hane hni na poe boipawiteh, BAWIPA teh ka Cathut lah ao han.
22 And this stone I have set up as a pillar will be God’s house, and of all that You give me I will surely give You a tenth.”
Hete talung ka ung e haiyah Cathut e im lah ao han, hahoi na poe hane naw pueng thung dawk hoi hra touh dawk buet touh teh na poe roeroe han, telah lawkkamnae hah a sak.
