Genesis 28
1 And Isaac called Jacob, and blessed him, and charged him, and said unto him: 'Thou shalt not take a wife of the daughters of Canaan.
Na ka karanga a Ihaka i a Hakopa, ka manaaki i a ia, ka tohutohu ki a ia, a ka mea ki a ia, Kaua koe e tango wahine o nga tamahine o Kanaana.
2 Arise, go to Paddan-aram, to the house of Bethuel thy mother's father; and take thee a wife from thence of the daughters of Laban thy mother's brother.
Whakatika, haere ki Paranaarama ki te whare o Petuere, papa o tou whaea; ka tango mai i reira i tetahi wahine mau o nga tamahine a Rapana, tungane o tou whaea.
3 And God Almighty bless thee, and make thee fruitful, and multiply thee, that thou mayest be a congregation of peoples;
A ma te Atua Kaha Rawa koe e manaaki, mana koe e mea kia hua, kia nui, kia meinga hoki hei huihuinga iwi;
4 and give thee the blessing of Abraham, to thee, and to thy seed with thee; that thou mayest inherit the land of thy sojournings, which God gave unto Abraham.'
Mana e homai ki a koe te manaaki o Aperahama, ki a koutou tahi ko ou uri; kia riro ai i a koe te whenua e noho manene nei koe, i homai nei hoki e te Atua ki a Aperahama.
5 And Isaac sent away Jacob; and he went to Paddan-aram unto Laban, son of Bethuel the Aramean, the brother of Rebekah, Jacob's and Esau's mother.
Na tonoa atu ana a Hakopa e Ihaka: a haere ana ia ki Paranaarama ki a Rapana, ki te tama a Petuere Hiriani, ki te tungane o Ripeka, whaea o Hakopa raua ko Ehau.
6 Now Esau saw that Isaac had blessed Jacob and sent him away to Paddan-aram, to take him a wife from thence; and that as he blessed him he gave him a charge, saying: 'Thou shalt not take a wife of the daughters of Canaan';
A ka kite a Ehau kua manaaki a Ihaka i a Hakopa, kua tono hoki i a ia ki Paranaarama ki te tiki wahine mana i reira; kua tohutohu hoki ki a ia, i a ia e manaaki ana i a ia, kua mea, Kei tangohia e koe he wahine i nga tamahine o Kanaana;
7 and that Jacob hearkened to his father and his mother, and was gone to Paddan-aram;
A kua rongo a Hakopa ki tona papa raua ko tona whaea, kua riro hoki ki Paranaarama;
8 and Esau saw that the daughters of Canaan pleased not Isaac his father;
A ka kite a Ehau e kino ana nga tamahine o Kanaana ki te titiro a Ihaka, a tona papa;
9 so Esau went unto Ishmael, and took unto the wives that he had Mahalath the daughter of Ishmael Abraham's son, the sister of Nebaioth, to be his wife.
Na haere ana a Ehau ki a Ihimaera, a tangohia ana mai e ia ki roto ki ana wahine a Maharata, te tamahine a Ihimaera, tama a Aperahama, te tuahine o Nepaioto, hei wahine mana.
10 And Jacob went out from Beer-sheba, and went toward Haran.
Na ka turia atu e Hakopa i Peerehepa, a haere ana ki Harana.
11 And he lighted upon the place, and tarried there all night, because the sun was set; and he took one of the stones of the place, and put it under his head, and lay down in that place to sleep.
A ka pono atu ia ki tetahi wahi, ka moe i reira, kua to hoki te ra; na ka tikina atu e ia tetahi o nga kohatu o taua wahi, a meatia ana e ia hei urunga mona, ka takoto ia i taua wahi, ka moe.
12 And he dreamed, and behold a ladder set up on the earth, and the top of it reached to heaven; and behold the angels of God ascending and descending on it.
Na moe iho ia, ko tetahi arawhata e tu ana i runga i te whenua, ko tona pito i tutuki ki te rangi: na, ko nga anahera a te Atua e piki ana, e heke ana i runga i taua mea.
13 And, behold, the LORD stood beside him, and said: 'I am the LORD, the God of Abraham thy father, and the God of Isaac. The land whereon thou liest, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed.
Na, ko Ihowa e tu ana i runga atu i taua mea, e mea ana, Ko Ihowa ahau, ko te Atua o Aperahama, o tou papa, ko te Atua hoki o Ihaka: ko te whenua e takoto na koe ka hoatu e ahau ki a koe, ki ou uri ano hoki;
14 And thy seed 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 seed shall all the families of the earth be blessed.
A ka rite ou uri ki te puehu o te oneone, ka tohatoha atu koe ki te hauauru, ki te rawhiti, ki te raki, ki te tonga: a mau, ma tou uri hoki e manaakitia ai nga hapu katoa o te whenua.
15 And, behold, I am with thee, and will keep thee whithersoever thou goest, and will bring thee back into this land; for I will not leave thee, until I have done that which I have spoken to thee of.'
Na, kei a koe tenei ahau, ka tiaki ahau i a koe i nga wahi katoa e haere ai koe, ka whakahoki mai ano ahau i a koe ki tenei whenua; e kore hoki ahau e whakarere i a koe, kia oti ra ano taku i ki atu ai ki a koe.
16 And Jacob awaked out of his sleep, and he said: 'Surely the LORD is in this place; and I knew it not.'
Na ka oho ake a Hakopa i tana moe, ka mea, He pono kei tenei wahi a Ihowa; a kihai ahau i mohio.
17 And he was afraid, and said: 'How full of awe is this place! this is none other than the house of God, and this is the gate of heaven.'
Na ka wehi ia, kamea, Ano te wehi o tenei wahi! ehara tenei i te mea ke atu i te whare o te Atua, a ko te kuwaha tenei ki te rangi.
18 And Jacob rose up early in the morning, and took the stone that he had put under his head, and set it up for a pillar, and poured oil upon the top of it.
Na ka ara wawe a Hakopa i te ata, a ka mau ki te kohatu i waiho ra hei urunga mona, whakaturia ana e ia hei pou, ringihia iho e ia he hinu ki runga.
19 And he called the name of that place Beth-el, but the name of the city was Luz at the first.
A huaina iho e ia te ingoa o taua wahi ko Peteere: ko Rutu ia te ingoa o taua pa i mua.
20 And Jacob vowed a vow, saying: 'If God will be with me, and will keep me in this way that I go, and will give me bread to eat, and raiment to put on,
Na ka puaki ta Hakopa kupu taurangi, ka mea ia, Ki te mea ka tata mai ki ahau te Atua, a ka tiakina ahau e ia i tenei ara e haere nei ahau, a ka homai e ia ki ahau he taro hei kai, me tetahi kakahu hei kakahu,
21 so that I come back to my father's house in peace, then shall the LORD be my God,
A ka hoki mai ahau i runga i te rangimarie ki te whare o toku papa; na, ko Ihowa hei Atua ki ahau:
22 and this stone, which I have set up for a pillar, shall be God's house; and of all that Thou shalt give me I will surely give the tenth unto Thee.'
A, ko tenei kohatu i whakaturia nei e ahau hei pou, ka waiho hei whare mo te Atua; a, o nga mea katoa e homai e koe ki ahau, ka hoatu e ahau ki a koe nga whakatekau.
