Genesis 35
1 And God said to Jacob, Arise, go up to Bethel, and dwell there, and make there an altar unto the God that appeared unto thee when thou fleddest from the face of Esau thy brother.
Allah berkata kepada Yakub, “Bersiaplah dan kembalilah ke Betel, di mana Aku berjumpa denganmu pada waktu kamu melarikan diri dari kakakmu Esau. Buatlah sebuah mezbah untuk-Ku di tempat itu, dan tinggallah di sana.”
2 And Jacob said to his household, and to all that were with him, Put away the strange gods that are among you, and cleanse yourselves, and change your garments;
Maka Yakub berkata kepada seluruh anggota keluarganya dan semua orang yang bersama-sama dengan dia, “Singkirkanlah semua patung berhala asing yang ada padamu. Bersihkanlah diri kalian, lalu kenakan pakaian yang bersih juga.
3 and we will arise, and go up to Bethel; and I will make there an altar to the God that answered me in the day of my distress, and was with me in the way that I went.
Marilah kita bersiap-siap pergi ke Betel. Di sana, aku hendak mendirikan mezbah untuk Allah, yang selalu menolongku saat aku kesulitan dan selalu menyertaiku ke mana pun aku pergi.”
4 And they gave to Jacob all the strange gods that were in their hand, and the rings that were in their ears, and Jacob hid them under the terebinth that [is] by Shechem.
Lalu mereka menyerahkan kepada Yakub semua patung berhala asing yang ada pada mereka, juga anting-anting di telinga mereka. Yakub mengubur semua benda itu di bawah sebuah pohon besar dekat kota Sikem.
5 And they journeyed; and the terror of God was upon the cities that were round about them, and they did not pursue after the sons of Jacob.
Pada waktu Yakub dan rombongan keluarganya berangkat, Allah mendatangkan rasa takut yang hebat atas seluruh penduduk kota-kota sekitar, sehingga tidak ada seorang pun yang berani mengejar mereka.
6 And Jacob came to Luz, which is in the land of Canaan, that is, Bethel, he and all the people that were with him.
Keluarga Yakub tiba di tempat bernama Lus, yang disebut Betel, di Kanaan.
7 And he built there an altar, and called the place El-beth-el; because there God had appeared to him when he fled from the face of his brother.
Di sana, Yakub membuat sebuah mezbah dan menamai tempat itu El Betel, karena di situlah Allah sudah menjumpainya ketika dia lari dari Esau, kakaknya.
8 And Deborah, Rebecca's nurse, died; and she was buried beneath Bethel, under the oak; and the name of it was called Allon-bachuth.
Di tempat itu jugalah Debora, pengasuh Ribka, meninggal dunia. Dia dikuburkan di bawah pohon besar yang di dataran rendah dekat Betel. Sejak saat itu, pohon tersebut dinamai Alon Bakut.
9 And God appeared to Jacob again after he had come from Padan-Aram, and blessed him.
Saat Yakub kembali dari Padan Aram, Allah menjumpai dia lagi dan memberkatinya.
10 And God said to him, Thy name is Jacob: thy name shall not henceforth be called Jacob, but Israel shall be thy name. And he called his name Israel.
Kata Allah kepadanya, “Namamu memang Yakub, tetapi mulai sekarang Aku memberi nama baru kepadamu. Kamu akan dikenal dengan nama Israel.
11 And God said to him, I am the Almighty God: be fruitful and multiply; a nation and a company of nations shall be of thee; and kings shall come out of thy loins.
Aku, Allah Yang Mahakuasa, memberkatimu supaya kamu beranak cucu hingga menjadi banyak. Bangsa-bangsa akan lahir dari keturunanmu dan kamu akan menjadi leluhur para raja.
12 And the land that I gave Abraham and Isaac, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed after thee will I give the land.
Tanah yang sudah Aku berikan kepada Abraham dan Isak, akan Aku berikan kepadamu dan keturunanmu.”
13 And God went up from him in the place where he had talked with him.
Sesudah Allah selesai berbicara kepada Yakub, Dia kembali ke surga.
14 And Jacob set up a pillar in the place where he had talked with him, a pillar of stone, and poured on it a drink-offering, and poured oil on it.
Lalu Yakub mendirikan sebuah batu sebagai peringatan bahwa di tempat itulah Allah sudah berbicara kepadanya. Yakub menuangkan persembahan air anggur dan minyak zaitun di atas batu tersebut.
15 And Jacob called the name of the place where God had talked with him, Beth-el.
Yakub menamai tempat itu Betel, karena di situ Allah sudah berbicara kepadanya.
16 And they journeyed from Bethel. And there was yet a certain distance to come to Ephrath, when Rachel travailed in childbirth; and it went hard with her in her childbearing.
Kemudian mereka meninggalkan Betel dan melanjutkan perjalanan menuju Efrata. Tetapi sebelum tiba di Efrata, Rahel merasakan sakit menjelang persalinan. Dan persalinannya pun sangat sulit.
17 And it came to pass when it went hard with her in her childbearing, that the midwife said to her, Fear not; for this also is a son for thee.
Pada titik paling berat dalam persalinannya itu, bidan berkata kepadanya, “Jangan takut, karena kamu melahirkan seorang anak laki-laki.”
18 And it came to pass as her soul was departing — for she died — that she called his name Benoni; but his father called him Benjamin.
Sambil menghembuskan nafas terakhirnya, Rahel menamai anaknya yang baru lahir itu Ben Oni, tetapi Yakub menamainya Benyamin.
19 And Rachel died, and was buried on the way to Ephrath, which [is] Bethlehem.
Sesudah Rahel meninggal, dia dikuburkan di suatu tempat di jalan menuju Efrata, yang juga disebut Betlehem.
20 And Jacob erected a pillar upon her grave: that is the pillar of Rachel's grave to [this] day.
Yakub mendirikan sebuah batu peringatan di kuburannya, dan batu itu masih ada sampai kitab ini ditulis.
21 And Israel journeyed, and spread his tent on the other side of Migdal-Eder.
Sesudah itu, Yakub meneruskan perjalanan sampai di bagian selatan menara Eder dan mendirikan kemahnya di sana.
22 And it came to pass when Israel dwelt in that land, that Reuben went and lay with Bilhah, his father's concubine; and Israel heard of it. And the sons of Jacob were twelve.
Sewaktu Yakub tinggal di sana, Ruben tidur dengan Bilha, budak Rahel yang diperistri Yakub. Berita itu pun sampai kepada Yakub. Inilah kedua belas anak laki-laki Yakub:
23 The sons of Leah: Reuben — Jacob's firstborn — and Simeon, and Levi, and Judah, and Issachar, and Zebulun.
Anak-anaknya dari Lea adalah Ruben (anak sulung), Simeon, Lewi, Yehuda, Isakar, dan Zebulon.
24 The sons of Rachel: Joseph and Benjamin.
Anak-anaknya dari Rahel adalah Yusuf dan Benyamin.
25 And the sons of Bilhah, Rachel's maidservant: Dan and Naphtali.
Anak-anaknya dari Bilha, budak Rahel, adalah Dan serta Naftali.
26 And the sons of Zilpah, Leah's maidservant: Gad and Asher. These are the sons of Jacob that were born to him in Padan-Aram.
Anak-anaknya dari Zilpa, budak Lea, adalah Gad dan Asyer. Itulah semua anak laki-laki Yakub yang lahir di Padan Aram.
27 And Jacob came to Isaac his father to Mamre — to Kirjath-Arba, which is Hebron; where Abraham had sojourned, and Isaac.
Yakub kembali kepada Isak, ayahnya, di Mamre yang juga disebut Kiryat Arba dan sekarang dikenal dengan nama Hebron. Kakeknya (Abraham) dahulu menetap di sana juga.
28 And the days of Isaac were a hundred and eighty years.
Isak meninggal pada usia yang sangat tua, 180 tahun. Lalu TUHAN menempatkan dia bersama dengan nenek moyangnya yang sudah meninggal dunia. Esau dan Yakub menguburkan dia.
29 And Isaac expired and died, and was gathered to his peoples, old and full of days. And his sons Esau and Jacob buried him.
