Genesis 35
1 Then God told Jacob, “Get ready to go to Bethel and live there. Build an altar there to God, who appeared to you when you were running away 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 family and everyone who was with him, “Get rid of the pagan idols you have with you. Purify yourselves and change your clothes.
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 We have to get ready and go to Bethel so I can build an altar to God who answered me in my time of trouble. He has been with me wherever I went.”
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 They handed over to Jacob all the pagan idols they had, as well as their earrings, and he buried them under the oak tree at 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 left on their journey, the terror of God spread over all the surrounding towns, so nobody tried to retaliate against Jacob's sons.
Isaanis kaʼanii qajeelan; akka namni tokko iyyuu isaan duukaa hin buuneef naasisuun Waaqaa magaalaawwan naannoo isaanii jiran irra buʼe.
6 Jacob and everyone with him arrived at Luz (also known as Bethel) in the country of Canaan.
Yaaqoobii fi namoonni isa wajjin turan hundi gara Luuzi kan Beetʼeel jedhamtuu ishee biyya Kanaʼaan keessatti argamtu sanaa dhufan.
7 He built an altar there and called the place El-Bethel, because that was where God had appeared to him when he was running away from his brother Esau.
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 Deborah, Rebekah's nurse, died and was buried under the oak near Bethel. So it was named “the oak of weeping.”
Debooraan guddiftuun Ribqaa duutee Beetʼeelii gaditti qilxuu jalatti awwaalamte. Maqaan isaas Aloonbaakut jedhame.
9 God appeared to Jacob again and blessed him after his return from Paddan-aram.
Erga Yaaqoob kaaba dhiʼa Phaadaan Arraamiitii deebiʼee booddee Waaqni ammas isatti mulʼatee isa eebbise.
10 God told him, “Jacob will not be your name any longer. Instead of Jacob your name will be Israel.” So God called him Israel.
Waaqni, “Maqaan kee Yaaqoob; siʼachi garuu ati Yaaqoob hin jedhamtu; maqaan kee Israaʼel jedhama” jedheen. Maqaan isaas Israaʼel jedhame.
11 Then God said, “I am God Almighty! Reproduce, increase, and you will become a nation—in fact a group of nations—and kings will be among your descendants.
Waaqni akkana isaan jedhe; “Ani Waaqa Waan Hunda Dandaʼu dha; hori; baayʼadhus. Sabnii fi waldaan sabootaa sirraa argamu; mootonnis mudhii kee keessaa baʼu.
12 I will give to you and to your descendants the land I also gave to Abraham and Isaac.”
Ani biyya Abrahaamii fi Yisihaaqiif kenne siifis nan kenna; ani biyya kana sanyii kee warra si booddeetiifis nan kenna.”
13 Then God left the place where he had been speaking to Jacob.
Waaqnis iddoo itti isa wajjin haasaʼaa ture sanatti isa dhiisee ol baʼe.
14 Afterwards Jacob set up a stone pillar where God had spoken with him. He poured out a drink offering on it, and also olive 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 Bethel, because he had spoken with God there.
Yaaqoobis iddoo itti Waaqni isa wajjin dubbate sana Beetʼeel jedhee moggaase.
16 Then they moved on from Bethel. While they were still some distance from Ephrath, Rachel went into labor and had great difficulty giving birth.
Isaanis Beetʼeelii kaʼanii adeemsa isaanii itti fufan. Akkuma isaan Efraataatti dhiʼaataniinis Raahel ciniinsuun qabamtee akka malee muddamte.
17 When she was in the worst birth-pains, the midwife told her, “Don't give up—you have another son!”
Utuu isheen daʼuuf ciniinsuu jabaa keessa jirtuus deessiftuun, “Ati waan ilma biraa deessuuf hin sodaatin” jetteen.
18 But she was dying, and with her last breath she named him Benoni. But his father named 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 Rachel died and was buried on the way to Ephrath (also known as Bethlehem).
Akkasiin Raahel duutee karaa Efraataatti geessu irratti awwaalamte; Efraataan kun immoo Beetlihem.
20 Jacob set up a stone memorial over Rachel's grave, and it's still there to this day.
Yaaqoobis awwaala ishee irra soodduu dhaabe; soodduun sunis hamma harʼaattuu awwaala Raahel argisiisa.
21 Israel moved on and camped beyond the watch tower at Eder.
Israaʼel ammas achii kaʼee Migdaal Eederiin gamatti dunkaana isaa dhaabbate.
22 During the time he was living there, Reuben went and slept with Bilhah, his father's concubine, and Israel found out about it. These were the twelve sons of Jacob:
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: Reuben (Jacob's firstborn), 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: Joseph and Benjamin.
Ilmaan Raahel: Yoosefii fi Beniyaam.
25 The sons of Rachel's personal maid Bilhah: Dan and Naphtali.
Ilmaan Bilihaa jechuunis xomboree Raahel: Daanii fi Niftaalem.
26 The sons of Leah's personal maid Zilpah: Gad and Asher. These were the sons of Jacob, who were born to him while 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 home to his father Isaac at Mamre, near Kiriath-arba (also known as Hebron), where Abraham and Isaac had lived.
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 Isaac lived to be 180
Yisihaaq waggaa dhibba tokkoo fi saddeettama jiraate.
29 when he breathed his last and died at an old age. He had lived a full life, and now he joined his forefathers in death. 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.
