Genesis 35
1 Then God said to Jacob, “Arise, go up to Bethel, and settle there. Build an altar there to the God who appeared to you when you fled from your brother Esau.”
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.”
2 So Jacob told his household and all who were with him, “Get rid of the foreign gods that are among you. Purify yourselves and change your garments.
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.
3 Then let us arise and go to Bethel. I will build an altar there to God, who answered me in my day of distress. He has been with me wherever I have gone.”
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.”
4 So they gave Jacob all their foreign gods and all their earrings, and Jacob buried them under the oak near Shechem.
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.
5 As they set out, a terror from God fell over the surrounding cities, so that they did not pursue Jacob’s sons.
Eka negichako wuoth kendo luoro mar Jehova Nyasaye nomako mier duto mane okiewo kodgi maonge ngʼama nolawo bangʼ-gi.
6 So Jacob and everyone with him arrived in Luz (that is, Bethel) in the land of Canaan.
Jakobo kod ji duto mane ni kode nochopo Luz (ma tiende ni Bethel) e piny Kanaan.
7 There Jacob built an altar, and he called that place El-bethel, because it was there that God had revealed Himself to Jacob as he fled from his brother.
Kanyo Jakobo nogero kendo mar misango kendo noluongo kanyo ni El Bethel, nikech kanyo ema ne Nyasaye ofwenyorene kane oringo owadgi.
8 Now Deborah, Rebekah’s nurse, died and was buried under the oak below Bethel. So Jacob named it Allon-bachuth.
Debora, ma japit Rebeka notho kendo noyike e tiend yiend ober machiegni gi Bethel. Kuom mano nochak kanyo ni Allon Bakuth.
9 After Jacob had returned from Paddan-aram, God appeared to him again and blessed him.
Bangʼ ka Jakobo nosea Padan Aram, Nyasaye nochako ofwenyorene kendo nogwedhe.
10 And God said to him, “Though your name is Jacob, you will no longer be called Jacob. Instead, your name will be Israel.” So God named him Israel.
Nyasaye nowachone niya, “Kata obedo ni nyingi en Jakobo to ok nochak oluongi kamano to koro ibiro luongi ni Israel.” Omiyo nochake ni Israel.
11 And God told him, “I am God Almighty. Be fruitful and multiply. A nation—even a company of nations—shall come from you, and kings shall descend from you.
Kendo Nyasaye nowachone niya, “An Nyasaye Maratego, nywolri kendo imedri. Ogendini kod dhout ogendini noa kuomi kendo ruodhi nowuog kuomi.
12 The land that I gave to Abraham and Isaac I will give to you, and I will give this land to your descendants after you.”
Piny mane amiyo Ibrahim kod Isaka bende abiro miyi kaachiel gi nyikwayi.”
13 Then God went up from the place where He had spoken with him.
Eka Nyasaye nodhi e polo moweye kama ne giwuoyoe kodeno.
14 So Jacob set up a pillar in the place where God had spoken with him—a stone marker—and he poured out a drink offering on it and anointed it with oil.
Jakobo nochungo siro mar kidi kanyono mane Nyasaye owuoyoe kode, kendo noolo ewi sirono misango miolo piny bende noolo misango mar mo ewi siro.
15 Jacob called the place where God had spoken with him Bethel.
Jakobo nochako kanyo mane Nyasaye owuoyoe kodeno ni Bethel.
16 Later, they set out from Bethel, and while they were still some distance from Ephrath, Rachel began to give birth, and her labor was difficult.
Eka negiwuok gia Bethel. Kane gisedhi mochwalore gi Efrath, muoch nochako kayo Rael kendo nochandore ahinya.
17 During her severe labor, the midwife said to her, “Do not be afraid, for you are having another son.”
E kinde mane muoch kayeno, jacholo nowachone niya, “Kik iluor nikech inywolo wuowi machielo.”
18 And with her last breath—for she was dying—she named him Ben-oni. But his father called him Benjamin.
Kane chunye chiegni chot nochako wuodeno ni Ben-Oni. To wuon mare to nochake ni Benjamin.
19 So Rachel died and was buried on the way to Ephrath (that is, Bethlehem).
Kuom mano Rael notho kendo nokunye e yo madhi Efrath (ma tiende ni Bethlehem).
20 Jacob set up a pillar on her grave; it marks Rachel’s tomb to this day.
Jakobo noketo siro ewi liend Rael kendo nyaka chil kawuono sirono obet kar liend Rael.
21 Israel again set out and pitched his tent beyond the Tower of Eder.
Israel nochako odhi nyime giwuoth kendo noguro hembe tok oinga mar Migdal Eder.
22 While Israel was living in that region, Reuben went in and slept with his father’s concubine Bilhah, and Israel heard about it. Jacob had twelve sons:
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:
23 The sons of Leah were Reuben the firstborn of Jacob, Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar, and Zebulun.
Yawuot Lea ne gin: Reuben wuod Jakobo makayo, Simeon, Lawi, Juda, Isakar kod Zebulun.
24 The sons of Rachel were Joseph and Benjamin.
Yawuot Rael ne gin: Josef kod Benjamin.
25 The sons of Rachel’s maidservant Bilhah were Dan and Naphtali.
Yawuot Bilha, jatich Rael madhako ne gin: Dan kod Naftali.
26 And the sons of Leah’s maidservant Zilpah were Gad and Asher. These are the sons of Jacob, who were born to him in Paddan-aram.
Yawuot Zilpa jatich Lea madhako ne gin: Gad kod Asher. Magi ema ne yawuot Jakobo mane onywolone Padan Aram.
27 Jacob returned to his father Isaac at Mamre, near Kiriath-arba (that is, Hebron), where Abraham and Isaac had stayed.
Jakobo noduogo dala ir wuon-gi Isaka Mamre machiegni gi Kiriath Arba (ma tiende ni Hebron), kumane Ibrahim kod Isaka odakie.
28 And Isaac lived 180 years.
Isaka nodak higni mia achiel gi piero aboro.
29 Then he breathed his last and died and was gathered to his people, old and full of years. And his sons Esau and Jacob buried him.
Eka Isaka notho kendo noluwo kwerene ka oti kendo hike ngʼeny. Kendo yawuot Esau kod Jakobo noyike.
