Genesis 28
1 So Isaac called for Jacob and blessed him. “Do not take a wife from the Canaanite women,” he commanded.
Boe ma Isak noꞌe Yakob, de fee ne papala-babꞌanggiꞌ ma denu e nae, “Rena malolole! Ho afiꞌ sao ina Kanaꞌan.
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.
Te muu sia Padan Aram, sia baꞌi Betuel ume na, fo sao mala toꞌo Labꞌan ma ana feto na esa.
3 May God Almighty bless you and make you fruitful and multiply you, so that you may become a company of peoples.
Au hule-oꞌe fo Lamatualain Mana Koasa fee nggo papala-babꞌanggiꞌ, fo ho umbu-ana mara ramahefu, ma tititi-nonosi mara dadꞌi leo manaseliꞌ.
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.”
Naa fo, Lamatualain hehelu-fufuli Na neu Abraham tudꞌa neu nggo, mo tititi-nonosi ma. Dei fo hambu mala rae fo Lamatualain helu-fuli fee neu Abraham a.
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.
Isak olaꞌ basa ma, ana mboꞌi Yakob Padan Aram neu, nisiꞌ toꞌo Labꞌan no baꞌi Betuel na umen.
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,”
Boe ma Esau rena oi Isak fee Yakob papala-babꞌanggiꞌ, ma ai e fo afiꞌ sao ina Kanaꞌan. Ana o rena oi, ama na denu odꞌi na neu sao toꞌo na ana feto na esa sia Padan Aram
7 and that Jacob had obeyed his father and mother and gone to Paddan-aram.
Yakob rena aman no inan parenda na, de lao Padan Aram neu.
8 And seeing that his father Isaac disapproved of the Canaanite women,
Esau o bubꞌuluꞌ oi, ama na nda hii eni sao, atahori Kanaꞌan ra sa.
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.
De ana nisiꞌ ama aꞌa na Ismael, de sao nala Ismael anan, naran Mahalat. Mahalat ia, Nebayot feton.
10 Meanwhile Jacob left Beersheba and set out for Haran.
Leleꞌ naa Yakob lao hela Beer Syeba, fo nae Haran neu.
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.
Relo a mopo ma, ana losa mamanaꞌ esa, de sungguꞌ sia naa. Ana nae sungguꞌ ma, haꞌi nala fatu esa, fo tao dadꞌi ainulu.
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.
Tetembaꞌ naa, ana nalamein nita eꞌedaꞌ esa nambariiꞌ sia rae ma tonggo na losa lalai. Lamatualain ate Nara mia sorga onda-hene eꞌedaꞌ a.
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.
Sia meit naa, Yakob nita LAMATUALAIN nambariiꞌ sia bobꞌoa na, de olaꞌ nae, “Au ia LAMATUALAIN, ho baꞌi ma Abraham no Isak Lamatualain na. Dei fo Au fee rae ia neu nggo ma tititi-nonosi mara.
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.
Mete te, tititi-nonosi mara ramahefu onaꞌ afu. Ara sea-sarangganggaa bee-bꞌee reu sia basa mamanaꞌ. Mia tititi-nonosi mara, basa nusaꞌ sia raefafoꞌ hambu papala-babꞌanggiꞌ.
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.”
Musunedꞌa malolole! Ho muu sia sudꞌiꞌ a bee-bꞌee o, Au unea nggo. Dei fo Au o baliꞌ nggo misiꞌ nusaꞌ ia. Au nda hela mesaꞌ nggo sa. Ma Au o tao utetu basa hehelu-fufuliꞌ fo Au helu fee nggoꞌ a.”
16 When Jacob woke up, he thought, “Surely the LORD is in this place, and I was unaware of it.”
Yakob sungguꞌ fela ma nae, “Au feꞌe uhine ae, LAMATUALAIN o sia ia boe!”
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!”
Ma ana namatau, de duꞌa nae, “We! Mamanaꞌ ia tao au ao fulu ngga tenggou. Memaꞌ Lamatualain ume na sia ia! Ia, lelesu nisiꞌ sorga neu.”
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,
Mbila fefetu ana na, Yakob fela, haꞌi nala fatu ainuluꞌ a, de naririi e dadꞌi tatandaꞌ. Ana mbori mina nisiꞌ fatu a ata, de beꞌutee neu Lamatualain.
19 and he called that place Bethel, though previously the city had been named Luz.
Ana babꞌae mamanaꞌ naa naran Betel, sosoa na nae ‘Lamatualain ume na’. (Maꞌahulu na, mamanaꞌ naa, naran Lus).
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,
Boe ma Yakob sumba nae, “Mete ma Lamatualain no au, ma nanea au sia dala ngga, ma fee nanaat ma bua-baꞌus,
21 so that I may return safely to my father’s house, then the LORD will be my God.
losa au baliꞌ no masodꞌaꞌ, naa, LAMATUALAIN dadꞌi au Lamatua ngga.
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.”
Fatu fo au uririiꞌ ia, dadꞌi mamana beꞌuteeꞌ neu Lamatualain. Ma basa saa fo Ana fee au, dei fo au fee baliꞌ babanggiꞌ esa mia sanahulu.”
