< Genesis 35 >

1 About this time, God said to Jacob, “Arise and go up to Bethel, and live there, and make an altar to God, who appeared to you when you fled from your brother Esau.”
Basa naa ma, Lamatualain olaꞌ no Yakob nae, “Au ia, Lamatualain fo mana utudꞌu ao ngga neu nggo, leleꞌ mela hela aꞌa ma Esau. Ia naa, ho lali Betel muu leo. Losa naa, muririi mei tutunu-hohotuꞌ fee Au. Ma leo muu naa leo.”
2 In truth, Jacob, having called together all his house, said: “Cast away the foreign gods that are in your midst and be cleansed, and also change your garments.
Basa ma, Yakob olaꞌ no basa ume isi nara nae, “Ia naa, basa hita tae lao Betel teu. Maꞌahulu na, au mia sususaꞌ rala, Lamatualain tulu-fali au mia naa. Au ae uririi mei tutunu-hohotuꞌ sia naa. Dadꞌi ia naa, nggari hendi basa paton sosonggoꞌ ra leo. Tao mimemeu ao mara, ma nggati bua-baꞌu mara, te ata tae beꞌutee neu Lamatualain.”
3 Arise, and let us go up to Bethel, so that we may make an altar there to God, who heeded me in the day of my tribulation, and who accompanied me on my journey.”
4 Therefore, they gave him all the foreign gods which they had, and the earrings which were in their ears. And then he buried them under the terebinth tree, which is beyond the city of Shechem.
Boe ma ara fee basa paton sosonggoꞌ ma basa aꞌandikiꞌ ra. De Yakob naꞌoi se sia hau huu ineꞌ esa raeꞌ, deka kambo Sikem.
5 And when they had set out, the terror of God invaded all the surrounding cities, and they dared not pursue them as they withdrew.
Yakob atahori nara lao mia Sikem ma, Lamatualain fee nemetaus neu atahori ndule nusaꞌ naa ra, de ara nda rambarani tao deꞌulaka Yakob se sa.
6 And so, Jacob arrived at Luz, which is in the land of Canaan, also named Bethel: he and all the people with him.
Naa de, Yakob no atahori nara, losa Betel sia rae Kanaꞌan no masodꞌaꞌ. (Feꞌesaꞌan, Betel, naran Lus).
7 And he built an altar there, and he called the name of that place, ‘House of God.’ For there, God appeared to him when he fled from his brother.
Losa naa ma, Yakob lutu mbatu mei tutunu-hohotuꞌ. Ana babꞌae mamanaꞌ naa, El Betel, (sosoa na ‘Betel Lamatualain na’), huu maꞌahulu na Lamatualain natudꞌu Ao na neu e sia naa, leleꞌ ana nela mia aꞌa na.
8 About the same time, Deborah, the nurse of Rebekah, died, and she was buried at the base of Bethel, under an oak tree. And the name of that place was called, ‘Oak of Weeping.’
Deka no kambo Betel, hambu hau huu ineꞌ esa atahori rae Alon Bakut. Sosoa na ‘hau ngganggaet’. Ara babꞌae raꞌo naa, huu leleꞌ Ribka ina mana oꞌo na, naran Debora, mate, ara raꞌoi e sia hau huuꞌ naa raeꞌ.
9 Then God appeared again to Jacob, after he returned from Mesopotamia of Syria, and he blessed him,
Yakob baliꞌ mia Padan Aram ma, Lamatualain natudꞌu Ao na fai, ma fee ne papala-babꞌanggiꞌ.
10 saying: “You will no longer be called Jacob, for your name shall be Israel.” And he called him Israel,
Lamatualain olaꞌ nae, “Eniꞌ a mia ia nema, nara ma, nda Yakob sa ena. Te, Au fee nara feu ma, naeni, Israꞌel.
11 and he said to him: “I am Almighty God: increase and multiply. Tribes and peoples of nations will be from you, and kings will go forth from your loins.
Au ia, Lamatualain mana Koasa. De bꞌonggi mumuhefu leo! Mete te, nusa-nusaꞌ ra rema mia tititi-nonosi mara. Ma ho bꞌonggi mane-maneꞌ ra.
12 And the land that I gave to Abraham and Isaac, I will give to you, and to your offspring after you.”
Nusaꞌ fo Au fee neu baꞌi Abraham ma amam Isak, ia naa Au fee neu nggo mo tititi-nonosi mara.”
13 And he withdrew from him.
Lamatualain olaꞌ basa ma, Yakob naririi rii fatuꞌ esa sia naa, dadꞌi nesenenedꞌaꞌ neu Lamatualain hehelu-fufuli na. Boe ma, ana mboꞌa oe anggor, no mina neu fatu a ata, de beꞌutee neu Lamatualain.
14 In truth, he set up a monument of stone, in the place where God had spoken to him, pouring out libations over it, and pouring oil,
15 and he called the name of that place, ‘Bethel.’
Ana babꞌae mamanaꞌ naa, Betel.
16 Then, departing from there, he arrived in springtime at the land that leads to Ephrath. And there, when Rachel was giving birth,
Basa naa ma, Yakob se lao hela Betel. Ara feꞌe raꞌadꞌooꞌ ro Efrata (nara feaꞌ na, Betlehem), te Rahel naeꞌ a bꞌonggi ena. Te ana bꞌonggi susa.
17 because it was a difficult birth, she began to be in danger. And the midwife said to her, “Do not be afraid, for you will have this son also.”
Ana feꞌe naꞌananasaꞌ ma, mana naꞌabꞌobꞌonggiꞌ a nafadꞌe e nae, “Ina Rahel! Tao manggatetee rala ma, huu inaꞌ hambu ana touꞌ esa fai!”
18 Then, when her life was departing because of the pain, and death was now imminent, she called the name of her son Benoni, that is, the son of my pain. Yet truly, his father called him Benjamin, that is, the son of the right hand.
Rahel hahae na nae etu ma, ana babꞌae anaꞌ naa, Ben-Oni, (sosoa na ‘ana doidꞌosoꞌ’). Basa naa ma, ana mate boe. Te Yakob babꞌae anaꞌ naa, Benyamin, (sosoa na ‘ana lima onaꞌ’).
19 And so Rachel died, and she was buried in the way that leads to Ephrath: this place is Bethlehem.
Basa ma, ara raꞌoi Rahel sia dalaꞌ mana nae nisiꞌ Efrata suu na (ia naa, Efrata naran Betlehem).
20 And Jacob erected a monument over her sepulcher. This is the monument to Rachel’s tomb, even to the present day.
Boe ma Yakob naririi fatu rates esa sia naa. Rahel fatu rates na naa, feꞌe sia ia, losa faiꞌ ia.
21 Departing from there, he pitched his tent beyond the Tower of the Flock.
Basa naa ma, Yakob lali-laliꞌ nakandooꞌ a. Lao esa, ana naririi lalaat deka ume kanaru ineꞌ sa, naran Eder.
22 And when he was living in that region, Reuben went out, and he slept with Bilhah the concubine of his father, which was not such a small matter as to be hidden from him. Now the sons of Jacob were twelve.
Ara feꞌe leo sia naa ma, Ruben sungguꞌ no ama na sao tias na, Bilha. Ma Yakob o bubꞌuluꞌ dalaꞌ naa boe. Yakob ana mone nara sanahulu rua. Naeni,
23 The sons of Leah: Reuben the first born, and Simeon, and Levi, and Judah, and Issachar, and Zebulun.
Lea ana nara, Ruben (fo Yakob ana ulu na), Simeon, Lewi, Yahuda, Isaskar, ma Sebulon.
24 The sons of Rachel: Joseph and Benjamin.
Rahel ana nara, Yusuf ma Benyamin.
25 The sons of Bilhah, handmaid of Rachel: Dan and Naphtali.
Rahel ate na Bilha ana nara, Dan ma Naftali.
26 The sons of Zilpah, handmaid of Leah: Gad and Asher. These are the sons of Jacob, who were born to him in Mesopotamia of Syria.
Ma Lea ate na Silpa ana nara, Gad, ma Aser. Ara bꞌonggi basa anaꞌ naa ra sia Padan Aram.
27 And then he went to his father Isaac in Mamre, the city of Arba: this place is Hebron, where Abraham and Isaac sojourned.
Basa naa ma, Yakob neu seꞌu ama na Isak sia Mamre deka kambo Kiriat Arba (aleꞌ ia, naran Hebron). Maꞌahulu na, baꞌi Abraham o leo sia naa boe.
28 And the days of Isaac were completed: one hundred and eighty years.
Isak nasodꞌa losa too natun esa falu nulu ma, ana mate. De ana na Yakob no Esau raꞌoi e.
29 And being consumed by old age, he died. And he was placed with his people, being old and full of days. And his sons, Esau and Jacob, buried him.
