Genesis 28
1 Then Izhak called Iaakob and blessed him, and charged him, and sayde vnto him, Take not a wife of the daughters of Canaan.
Tondũ ũcio, Isaaka agĩĩta Jakubu akĩmũrathima na akĩmwatha, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ndũkanahikie mũndũ-wa-nja wa kuuma gũkũ Kaanani.
2 Arise, get thee to Padan Aram to the house of Bethuel thy mothers father, and thence take thee a wife of the daughters of Laban thy mothers brother.
Ũkĩra ũthiĩ Padani-Aramu, kwa nyũmba ya Bethueli ithe wa nyũkwa. Wĩcarĩrie mũtumia kuuma kũrĩ airĩtu a Labani, mũrũ wa nyina na nyũkwa.
3 And God all sufficient blesse thee, and make thee to encrease, and multiplie thee, that thou mayest be a multitude of people,
Ngai Mwene-Hinya-Wothe arokũrathima na atũme ũciarane mũno na ũingĩhe o nginya ũgaatuĩka rũrĩrĩ rwa andũ aingĩ.
4 And giue thee the blessing of Abraham, euen to thee and to thy seede with thee, that thou mayest inherite the lande (wherein thou art a stranger, ) which God gaue vnto Abraham.
Ngai arokũhe kĩrathimo kĩrĩa aaheire Iburahĩmu hamwe na njiaro ciaku, nĩgeetha wĩgwatĩre bũrũri ũyũ ũratũũra rĩu ũrĩ ta mũgeni, o bũrũri ũyũ Ngai eerĩire Iburahĩmu.”
5 Thus Izhak sent forth Iaakob, and he went to Padan Aram vnto Laban sonne of Bethuel the Aramite, brother to Rebekah, Iaakobs and Esaus mother.
Isaaka akĩĩra Jakubu athiĩ, nake agĩthiĩ Padani-Aramu kwa Labani mũrũ wa Bethueli ũrĩa Mũsuriata, mũrũ wa nyina na Rebeka, nyina wa Jakubu na Esaũ.
6 When Esau sawe that Izhak had blessed Iaakob, and sent him to Padan Aram, to set him a wife thence, and giuen him a charge when he blessed him, saying, Thou shalt not take a wife of the daughters of Canaan,
Na rĩrĩ, Esaũ nĩamenyire atĩ Isaaka nĩarathimĩte Jakubu na akamũtũma Padani-Aramu akahikanie kuo, na atĩ rĩrĩa aamũrathimire nĩamwathire, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ndũkanahikie mũndũ-wa-nja wa kuuma gũkũ Kaanani.”
7 And that Iaakob had obeyed his father and his mother, and was gone to Padan Aram:
O na akĩmenya atĩ Jakubu nĩathĩkĩire ithe na nyina na nĩathiĩte Padani-Aramu.
8 Also Esau seeing that the daughters of Canaan displeased Izhak his father,
Ningĩ Esaũ agĩkũũrana atĩ andũ-a-nja acio a Ahiti matiakenagia ithe, Isaaka;
9 Then went Esau to Ishmael, and tooke vnto the wiues, which he had, Mahalath the daughter of Ishmael Abrahams sonne, the sister of Nabaioth, to be his wife.
nĩ ũndũ ũcio, agĩthiĩ gwa Ishumaeli na akĩhikia Mahalathu, mwarĩ wa nyina na Nebaiothu, mũirĩtu wa Ishumaeli mũriũ wa Iburahĩmu, akĩmuongerera harĩ atumia arĩa angĩ aarĩ nao.
10 Now Iaakob departed from Beer-sheba, and went to Haran,
Jakubu oima Birishiba aathiire erekeire Harani.
11 And he came vnto a certaine place, and taried there al night, because the sunne was downe, and tooke of the stones of the place, and layde vnder his head and slept in the same place.
Na aakinya handũ hana-rĩ, akĩraarĩrĩra ho tondũ riũa nĩ rĩathũĩte. Akĩoya ihiga rĩmwe hau, agĩĩtiira narĩo mũtwe nĩguo akome.
12 Then he dreamed, and behold, there stoode a ladder vpon the earth, and the top of it reached vp to heauen: and loe, the Angels of God went vp and downe by it.
Nake akĩroota, akĩona ngathĩ ĩturumĩte thĩ, na mũthia wayo ũgakinya igũrũ matu-inĩ, nao araika a Ngai mambataga magĩikũrũkaga nayo.
13 And behold, the Lord stoode aboue it, and sayd, I am the Lord God of Abraham thy father, and the God of Izhak: the land, vpon the which thou sleepest, wil I giue thee and thy seede.
Jakubu akĩona Jehova arũgamĩte igũrũ rĩa ngathĩ ĩyo akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Nĩ niĩ Jehova, Ngai wa thoguo Iburahĩmu na Ngai wa Isaaka. Bũrũri ũyũ ũkomete nĩngakũhe, wee hamwe na njiaro ciaku.
14 And thy seede shall be as the dust of the earth, and thou shalt spread abroad to the West, and to the East, and to the North, and to the South, and in thee and in thy seede shall all the families of the earth be blessed.
Njiaro ciaku ikaingĩha ta rũkũngũ rwa thĩ, na nĩũgatambũrũka na mwena wa ithũĩro, na mwena wa irathĩro, na wa gathigathini, o na wa gũthini. Andũ a mĩhĩrĩga yothe ya thĩ nĩmakarathimwo nĩ ũndũ waku, na nĩ ũndũ wa rũciaro rwaku.
15 And lo, I am with thee, and wil keepe thee whithersoeuer thou goest, and will bring thee againe into this lande: for I will not forsake thee vntill I haue performed that, that I haue promised thee.
Na niĩ ndĩ hamwe nawe, na nĩndĩkũmenyagĩrĩra kũrĩa guothe ũrĩthiiaga, na nĩngagũcookia bũrũri ũyũ. Ndigagũtiganĩria nginya ngaahingia maũndũ marĩa ndakwĩrĩra.”
16 Then Iaakob awoke out of his sleepe, and sayde, Surely the Lord is in this place, and I was not aware.
Rĩrĩa Jakubu ookĩrire, agĩĩciiria atĩrĩ, “Ti-itherũ Jehova arĩ handũ haha, na ndiikũũĩ.”
17 And he was afraid, and said, How fearefull is this place! this is none other but the house of God, and this is the gate of heauen.
Agĩkĩigua guoya, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Kaĩ handũ haha nĩ ha kũmakania-ĩ! Haha nĩho nyũmba ya Ngai; na gĩkĩ nĩkĩo kĩhingo kĩa igũrũ-kwa-Ngai.”
18 Then Iaakob rose vp early in the morning, and tooke the stone that hee had layde vnder his head, and set it vp as a pillar, and powred oyle vpon the top of it.
Mũthenya ũyũ ũngĩ rũciinĩ tene, Jakubu akĩoya ihiga rĩrĩa etiirĩte narĩo mũtwe, akĩrĩrũgamia ta gĩtugĩ, akĩrĩitĩrĩria maguta.
19 And he called ye name of that place Bethel: notwithstanding the name of the citie was at the first called Luz.
Agĩcooka agĩĩta handũ hau Betheli, o na gũtuĩka mbere ĩyo itũũra rĩu rĩetagwo Luzu.
20 Then Iaakob vowed a vowe, saying, If God will be with me, and will keepe me in this iourney which I go, and wil giue me bread to eate, and clothes to put on:
Ningĩ Jakubu akĩĩhĩta na mwĩhĩtwa, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ngai angĩkorwo hamwe na niĩ, na aamenyerere rũgendo-inĩ rũrũ ndĩrathiĩ, na aaheage irio cia kũrĩa na nguo cia kwĩhumba,
21 So that I come againe vnto my fathers house in safetie, then shall the Lord be my God.
nĩguo ngaacooka nyũmba-inĩ ya baba na thayũ-rĩ, Jehova nĩagatuĩka Ngai wakwa,
22 And this stone, which I haue set vp as a pillar, shall be Gods house: and of all that thou shalt giue me, wil I giue the tenth vnto thee.
narĩo ihiga rĩĩrĩ ndaarũgamia ta gĩtugĩ rĩgaatuĩka nyũmba ya Ngai, na kĩrĩa o gĩothe ũkaahe, nĩngakũhe gĩcunjĩ gĩa ikũmi.”
