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.”
Waaqni Yaaqoobiin, “Kaʼiitii Beetʼeelitti ol baʼii achi jiraadhu; achittis Waaqa yeroo ati obboleessa kee Esaawun baqatetti sitti mulʼate sanaaf iddoo aarsaa tolchi” jedhe.
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.
Yaaqoob warra mana isaa jiranii fi warra isa wajjin turan hundaan akkana jedhe; “Waaqota ormaa kanneen isin of biraa qabdan irraa fagaadhaa; of qulqulleessaa; uffata keessanis geeddaradhaa.
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.”
Kottaa kaanee Beetʼeelitti ol baanaa; anis achitti Waaqa gaafa rakkina kootii deebii naa kenne isa iddoo ani dhaqe hundumatti na wajjin ture sanaaf iddoo aarsaa nan tolcha.”
4 So they gave Jacob all their foreign gods and all their earrings, and Jacob buried them under the oak near Shechem.
Isaanis waaqota ormaa kanneen isaan of biraa qaban hundaa fi lootii gurra isaanii Yaaqoobitti kennan; Yaaqoobis fuudhee qilxuu Sheekemii jalatti awwaale.
5 As they set out, a terror from God fell over the surrounding cities, so that they did not pursue Jacob’s sons.
Isaanis kaʼanii qajeelan; akka namni tokko iyyuu isaan duukaa hin buuneef naasisuun Waaqaa magaalaawwan naannoo isaanii jiran irra buʼe.
6 So Jacob and everyone with him arrived in Luz (that is, Bethel) in the land of Canaan.
Yaaqoobii fi namoonni isa wajjin turan hundi gara Luuzi kan Beetʼeel jedhamtuu ishee biyya Kanaʼaan keessatti argamtu sanaa dhufan.
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.
Innis achitti iddoo aarsaa tolchee sababii yeroo inni obboleessa isaa jalaa baqachaa turetti Waaqni achitti isatti of mulʼiseef iddoo sana El Beetʼeel jedhee waame.
8 Now Deborah, Rebekah’s nurse, died and was buried under the oak below Bethel. So Jacob named it Allon-bachuth.
Debooraan guddiftuun Ribqaa duutee Beetʼeelii gaditti qilxuu jalatti awwaalamte. Maqaan isaas Aloonbaakut jedhame.
9 After Jacob had returned from Paddan-aram, God appeared to him again and blessed him.
Erga Yaaqoob kaaba dhiʼa Phaadaan Arraamiitii deebiʼee booddee Waaqni ammas isatti mulʼatee isa eebbise.
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.
Waaqni, “Maqaan kee Yaaqoob; siʼachi garuu ati Yaaqoob hin jedhamtu; maqaan kee Israaʼel jedhama” jedheen. Maqaan isaas Israaʼel jedhame.
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.
Waaqni akkana isaan jedhe; “Ani Waaqa Waan Hunda Dandaʼu dha; hori; baayʼadhus. Sabnii fi waldaan sabootaa sirraa argamu; mootonnis mudhii kee keessaa baʼu.
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.”
Ani biyya Abrahaamii fi Yisihaaqiif kenne siifis nan kenna; ani biyya kana sanyii kee warra si booddeetiifis nan kenna.”
13 Then God went up from the place where He had spoken with him.
Waaqnis iddoo itti isa wajjin haasaʼaa ture sanatti isa dhiisee ol baʼe.
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.
Yaaqoob iddoo itti Waaqni isa wajjin dubbate sana utubaa dhagaa tokko dhaabee kennaa dhugaatii irratti dhangalaase; zayitiis irratti dhangalaase.
15 Jacob called the place where God had spoken with him Bethel.
Yaaqoobis iddoo itti Waaqni isa wajjin dubbate sana Beetʼeel jedhee moggaase.
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.
Isaanis Beetʼeelii kaʼanii adeemsa isaanii itti fufan. Akkuma isaan Efraataatti dhiʼaataniinis Raahel ciniinsuun qabamtee akka malee muddamte.
17 During her severe labor, the midwife said to her, “Do not be afraid, for you are having another son.”
Utuu isheen daʼuuf ciniinsuu jabaa keessa jirtuus deessiftuun, “Ati waan ilma biraa deessuuf hin sodaatin” jetteen.
18 And with her last breath—for she was dying—she named him Ben-oni. But his father called him Benjamin.
Raahel garuu waan duʼuu geesseef utuma lubbuun ishee baʼaa jirtuu Ben-Oonii jettee ilma ishee moggaafte. Abbaan isaa garuu Beniyaam jedhee isa moggaase.
19 So Rachel died and was buried on the way to Ephrath (that is, Bethlehem).
Akkasiin Raahel duutee karaa Efraataatti geessu irratti awwaalamte; Efraataan kun immoo Beetlihem.
20 Jacob set up a pillar on her grave; it marks Rachel’s tomb to this day.
Yaaqoobis awwaala ishee irra soodduu dhaabe; soodduun sunis hamma harʼaattuu awwaala Raahel argisiisa.
21 Israel again set out and pitched his tent beyond the Tower of Eder.
Israaʼel ammas achii kaʼee Migdaal Eederiin gamatti dunkaana isaa dhaabbate.
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:
Utuu Israaʼel biyya sana jiraatuu Ruubeen ol seenee saajjatoo abbaa isaa Bilihaa wajjin ciise; Israaʼelis waan kana dhagaʼe. Yaaqoob ilmaan kudha lama qaba ture; isaanis:
23 The sons of Leah were Reuben the firstborn of Jacob, Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar, and Zebulun.
Ilmaan Liyaa: Ruubeen jechuunis ilma Yaaqoob isa hangafa, Simiʼoon, Lewwii, Yihuudaa, Yisaakorii fi Zebuuloon.
24 The sons of Rachel were Joseph and Benjamin.
Ilmaan Raahel: Yoosefii fi Beniyaam.
25 The sons of Rachel’s maidservant Bilhah were Dan and Naphtali.
Ilmaan Bilihaa jechuunis xomboree Raahel: Daanii fi Niftaalem.
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.
Ilmaan Zilfaa jechuunis xomboree Liyaa: Gaadii fi Aasheer. Isaan kunneen ilmaan Yaaqoob kanneen kaaba dhiʼa Phaadaan Arraamiitti isaaf dhalatanii dha.
27 Jacob returned to his father Isaac at Mamre, near Kiriath-arba (that is, Hebron), where Abraham and Isaac had stayed.
Yaaqoobis gara abbaa isaa, gara Yisihaaq, gara magaalaa Mamree ishee Kiriyaati Arbaaq kan Kebroon jedhamtuu, iddoo Abrahaamii fi Yisihaaq alagoota taʼanii jiraachaa turan sanaa dhufe.
28 And Isaac lived 180 years.
Yisihaaq waggaa dhibba tokkoo fi saddeettama jiraate.
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.
Innis umurii quufee, dulloomee hafuura isaa kan dhumaa baafatee duʼe; gara saba isaattis dabalame. Ilmaan isaa Esaawuu fi Yaaqoobis isa awwaalan.
