Genesis 35
1 And God said to Jacob, Go up now to Beth-el and make your living-place there: and put up an altar there to the God who came to you when you were in flight from your brother Esau.
Derpå sagde Gud til Jakob: "Drag op til Betel og bliv der og byg der et Alter for Gud, som åbenbarede sig for dig, da du flygtede for din Broder Esau!"
2 Then Jacob said to all his people, Put away the strange gods which are among you, and make yourselves clean, and put on a change of clothing:
Jakob sagde da til sit Hus og alle sine Folk: "Skaf de fremmede Guder, der findes hos eder, bort, rens eder og skift Klæder,
3 And let us go up to Beth-el: and there I will make an altar to God, who gave me an answer in the day of my trouble, and was with me wherever I went.
og lad os drage op til Betel, for at jeg der kan bygge et Alter for Gud, der bønhørte mig i min Trængselstid og var med mig på den Vej, jeg vandrede!"
4 Then they gave to Jacob all the strange gods which they had, and the rings which were in their ears; and Jacob put them away under the holy tree at Shechem.
De gav så Jakob alle de fremmede Guder, de førte med sig, og alle de Ringe, de havde i Ørene, og han gravede dem ned under Egen ved Sikem.
5 So they went on their journey: and the fear of God was on the towns round about, so that they made no attack on the sons of Jacob.
Derpå brød de op; og en Guds Rædsel kom over alle Byerne rundt om, så de ikke forfulgte Jakobs Sønner.
6 And Jacob came to Luz in the land of Canaan (which is the same as Beth-el), he and all his people.
Og Jakob kom med alle sine Folk til Luz i Kana'ans Land, det er Betel;
7 And there he made an altar, naming the place El-beth-el: because it was there he had the vision of God when he was in flight from his brother.
og han byggede et Alter der og kaldte Stedet: Betels Gud, thi der havde Gud åbenbaret sig for ham, da han flygtede for sin Broder.
8 And Deborah, the servant who had taken care of Rebekah from her birth, came to her end, and was put to rest near Beth-el, under the holy tree: and they gave it the name of Allon-bacuth.
Så døde Rebekkas Amme Debora, og hun blev jordet neden for Betel under Egen; derfor kaldte han den Grædeegen.
9 Now when Jacob was on his way from Paddan-aram, God came to him again and, blessing him, said,
Gud åbenbarede sig atter for Jakob efter hans Hjemkomst fra Paddan Aram og velsignede ham;
10 Jacob is your name, but it will be so no longer; from now your name will be Israel; so he was named Israel.
og Gud sagde til ham: "Dit Navn er Jakob; men herefter skal du ikke mere hedde Jakob; Israel skal være dit Navn!" Og han gav ham Navnet Israel.
11 And God said to him, I am God, the Ruler of all: be fertile, and have increase; a nation, truly a group of nations, will come from you, and kings will be your offspring;
Derpå sagde Gud til ham: "Jeg er Gud den Almægtige! Bliv frugtbar og mangfoldig! Et Folk, ja Folk i Hobetal skal nedstamme fra dig, og. Konger skal udgå af din Lænd;
12 And the land which I gave to Abraham and Isaac, I will give to you; and to your seed after you I will give the land.
det Land, jeg gav Abraham og Isak, giver jeg dig, og dit Afkom efter dig giver jeg Landet!"
13 Then God went up from him in the place where he had been talking with him.
Derpå for Gud op fra ham på det Sted, hvor han havde talet med ham;
14 And Jacob put up a pillar in the place where he had been talking with God, and put a drink offering on it, and oil.
og Jakob rejste en Støtte på det Sted, hvor han havde talet med ham, en Stenstøtte, og hældte et Drikofer over den og udgød Olie på den.
15 And he gave to the place where God had been talking with him, the name of Beth-el.
Og Jakob kaldte det Sted, hvor Gud havde talet med ham, Betel.
16 So they went on from Beth-el; and while they were still some distance from Ephrath, the pains of birth came on Rachel and she had a hard time.
Derpå brød de op fra Betel, Da de endnu var et Stykke Vej fra Efrat, skulde Rakel føde, og hendes Fødselsveer var hårde.
17 And when her pain was very great, the woman who was helping her said, Have no fear; for now you will have another son.
Midt under hendes hårde Fødselsveer sagde Jordemoderen til hende: "Frygt ikke, thi også denne Gang får du en Søn!"
18 And in the hour when her life went from her (for death came to her), she gave the child the name Ben-oni: but his father gave him the name of Benjamin.
Men da hun droges med Døden thi det kostede hende Livet gav hun ham Navnet Ben'oni; men Faderen kaldte ham Benjamin".
19 So Rachel came to her end and was put to rest on the road to Ephrath (which is Beth-lehem).
Så døde Rakel og blev jordet på Vejen til Efrat, det er Betlehem;
20 And Jacob put up a pillar on her resting-place; which is named, The Pillar of the resting-place of Rachel, to this day.
og Jakob rejste en Stenstøtte på hendes Grav; det er Rakels Gravstøtte, som står endnu den Dag i Dag.
21 And Israel went journeying on and put up his tents on the other side of the tower of the flock.
Derpå brød Israel op og opslog sit Telt hinsides Migdal Eder.
22 Now while they were living in that country, Reuben had connection with Bilhah, his father's servant-woman: and Israel had news of it.
Men medens Israel boede i den Egn, gik Ruben hen og lå hos sin Faders Medhustru Bilha; og det kom Israel for Øre. Jakobs Sønner var tolv i Tal;
23 Now Jacob had twelve sons: the sons of Leah: Reuben, Jacob's first son, and Simeon and Levi and Judah and Issachar and Zebulun;
Leas Sønner: Ruben, Jakobs førstefødte, Simeon, Levi, Juda, Issakar og Zebulon;
24 The sons of Rachel: Joseph and Benjamin;
Rakels Sønner: Josef og Benjamin;
25 The sons of Bilhah, Rachel's servant: Dan and Naphtali;
Rakels Trælkvinde Bilhas Sønner: Dan og Naftali;
26 The sons of Zilpah, Leah's servant: Gad and Asher; these are the sons whom Jacob had in Paddan-aram.
Leas Trælkvinde Zilpas Sønner: Gad og Aser. Det var Jakobs Sønner, der fødtes ham i Paddan Aram.
27 And Jacob came to his father Isaac at Mamre, at Kiriath-arba, that is, Hebron, where Abraham and Isaac had been living.
Og Jakob kom til sin Fader Isak i Mamre i Kirjat Arba, det er Hebron, hvor Abraham og Isak havde levet som fremmede.
28 And Isaac was a hundred and eighty years old.
Isaks Leveår var 180;
29 Then Isaac came to his end and was put to rest with his father's people, an old man after a long life: and Jacob and Esau, his sons, put him in his last resting-place.
så gik Isak bort; han døde og samledes til sin Slægt, gammel og mæt af Dage. Og hans Sønner Esau og Jakob jordede ham,
