Genesis 28
1 Isaac called for Jacob and blessed him. “Don't marry a Canaanite woman,” he ordered him.
HEA aku la o Isaaka ia Iakoba, hoomaikai aku la ia ia, kauoha aku la ia ia, i aku la, Mai lawe oe i wahine nau no na kaikamahine a ko Kanaana,
2 “Leave right away and go to Paddan-aram, to the home of Bethuel, your mother's father. Find yourself a wife there—a daughter of Laban, your mother's brother.
E ku ae, e hele aku oe i Padanarama, i ka hale o Betuela o ka makuakane o kou makuwahine; a e lawe oe i wahine nau nolaila, no na kaikamahine a Labana a ke kaikunane o kou makuwahine.
3 God Almighty bless you and may your descendants be so numerous that you become the ancestor of many nations.
E hoomaikai mai ke Akua mana ia oe, e hoohua mai kela ia oe, e hoomahuahua hoi ia oe, i lilo oe i poe kanaka he nui:
4 May he grant you and your descendants the same blessing he gave to Abraham, so that you may take over the land where you now live as a foreigner, the land God gave to Abraham.”
E haawi mai hoi oia nou i ka pomaikai o Aberahama, nou, a no kau poe mamo me oe; i hooiliia nou ka aina au e noho malihini nei, ka mea a ke Akua i haawi mai ai no Aberahama.
5 So Isaac sent Jacob on his way. He traveled to Paddan-aram, to Laban, son of Bethuel the Aramean. Laban was the brother of Rebekah, the mother of Jacob and Esau.
Hoouna aku la o Isaaka ia Iakoba: a hele aku la ia i Padauarama io Labana la, i ke keiki a Betuela no Suria, i ke kaikunane o Rebeka, o ka makuwahine o Iakoba laua o Esau.
6 Esau found out that Isaac had blessed Jacob and had sent him to Paddan-aram to find a wife there, and that when he blessed him he ordered him, “Don't marry a Canaanite woman.”
A ike iho o Esau, ua hoomaikai mai o Isaaka ia Iakoba, a ua hoouna aku ia ia e hele i Padanarama, e lawe i wahine nana mai ia wahi mai; a i kana hoomaikai ana ia ia, kauoha aku la ia, i ka i ana, Mai lawe oe i wahine nau no na kaikamahine a ko Kanaana;
7 He also discovered that Jacob had done what his father and mother told him and had left for Paddan-aram.
A ua hoolohe mai o Iakoba i kona makuakane, a me kona makuwahine, a ua hala aku la i Padanarama;
8 This made Esau realize how much his father disliked Canaanite women.
A ike iho la o Esau, aole i oluolu o Isaaka o kona makuakane i na kaikamahine a ko Kanaana;
9 So he went to Ishmael's family and married an additional wife—Mahalath, the daughter of Ishmael, Abraham's son, the sister of Nebaioth.
Alaila, hele aku la o Esau io Isemaela la, a hui mai la me kana mau wahine, ia Mahalata i ke kaikamahine a Isemaela a ke keiki a Aberahama, oia ke kaikuwahine o Nebaiota, i wahine nana.
10 In the meantime Jacob had set off from Beersheba on his way to Haran.
Hele aku la o Iakoba mai Beereseba aku, i kona hele ana i Harana.
11 He arrived after sunset at a particular place and stopped there for the night. He picked up a stone, put it under his head, lay down and went to sleep.
A hiki aku la ia i kau wahi, a noho iho la ilaila i ka po; no ka mea, ua napoo ka la: lawe ae la ia i kekahi o na pohaku o ia wahi i uluna nona, a moe iho la ilaila.
12 He dreamed he saw a stairway that started on earth, and the top reached all the way into heaven. He saw God's angels going up and down on it.
Moe iho la ia i ka uhane; aia hoi, ku mai la kekahi ala haka maluna o ka honua, a hiki aku la kona welau i ka lani: aia hoi, ua ikea na anela o ke Akua i ka pii ana ae, a i ka iho ana mai maluna o ka haka.
13 Then he saw the Lord standing over him, who said, “I am the Lord, the God of your father Abraham, and the God of Isaac. I'm giving you and your descendants the land you're lying on.
Aia hoi, ku mai la o Iehova maluna ae o ka haka, i mai la, Owau no Iehova ke Akua o Aberahama o kou kupunakane, a ke Akua o Isaaka: e haawi aku no au i ka aina au e moe iho ai nou, a no kau poe mamo;
14 Your descendants will be as numerous as the dust of the earth, and will spread out west and east, and north and south. Everyone on earth will be blessed by your descendants.
A e like auanei ka nui o kau poe mamo me ka lepo o ka honua, a e palahalaha ana ae oe i ke komohana, i ka hikina, i ke kukulu akau, a i ke kukulu hema: ia oe no a i kau poe mamo e hoopomaikaiia'i na ohana a pau o ka honua.
15 Listen! I am with you and will take care of you wherever you go. I will bring you back to this country. I won't leave you because I'm going to do what I've promised you.”
Aia hoi, me oe no wau, a e malama auanei ia oe i na wahi a pau au e hele ai, a e hoihoi mai no wau ia oe i keia aina; no ka mea, aole au e haalele ia oe, a pau i ka hanaia e au ka mea a'u i olelo aku ai ia oe.
16 When Jacob woke up he said to himself, “The Lord is right here, in this place, and I didn't realize it!”
Ala ae la o Iakoba mai kona hiamoe ana, i iho la ia. He oiaio, maanei no o Iehova, aole nae au i ike.
17 He became frightened and said, “This is a scary place! It must be the house of God and the entrance to heaven.”
Eehia iho la ia, i iho la, He wahi eehia keia! o ka hale wale no keia no ke Akua, o ka ipuka hoi keia o ka lani.
18 When Jacob got up in the morning he took the stone he'd put under his head and set it upright as a stone pillar and poured some olive oil on it.
Ala ae la o Iakoba i kakahiaka nui, lalau aku la ia i ka pohaku ana i uluna ai, hooku ae la i eho, a ninini iho la i ka aila maluna o kona welau.
19 He named the place “Bethel,” (previously it was called Luz).
Kapa iho la ia i ka inoa o ia wahi, o i Betela: o Luza ka inoa mamua o ua kulanakauhale la.
20 Jacob also made a solemn promise, saying, “God, if you will be with me, and take care of me on my journey, and give me food to eat and clothes to wear
Hoohiki aku la o Iakoba i ka hoohiki ana, i aku la, Ina e noho pu ke Akua me au, a e malama mai ia'u ma keia ala a'u e hele nei, a e haawi mai i ai na'u e ai ai, a i kapa hoi e aahu ai,
21 so I can return safely to my father's home, then you Lord will be my God.
A hoi hou mai au i ka hale o ko'u makuakane me ka maluhia; alaila o Iehova no ko'u Akua:
22 This stone pillar that I've set up will be the house of God, and I will give you one tenth of all you give me.”
A o keia pohaku a'u i hooku ae nei i kukulu, a e lilo auanei ia i hale no ke Akua: a e haawi io aku no wau nou i ka hapaumi o na mea a pau au e haawi mai ai ia'u.
