Genesis 28
1 And Isaac having called for Jacob, blessed him, and charged him, saying, You shall not take a wife of the daughters of the Chananites.
Yisihaaqis Yaaqoobin waamee eebbisee akkana jedhee isa ajaje: “Intallan warra Kanaʼaan keessaa hin fuudhin.
2 Rise and depart quickly into Mesopotamia, to the house of Bathuel the father of your mother, and take to yourself thence a wife of the daughters of Laban your mother's brother.
Ammuma kaʼiitii gara kaaba dhiʼa Phaadaan Arraam mana abbaa haadha keetii mana Betuuʼeel dhaqi. Achiis intallan obboleessa haadha keetii intallan Laabaa keessaa tokko fuudhi.
3 And may my God bless you, and increase you, and multiply you, and you shall become gatherings of nations.
Waaqni Waan Hunda Dandaʼu sun si haa eebbisu; sanyii siif haa kennu; akka ati saba balʼaa taatuufis si haa baayʼisu.
4 And may he give you the blessing of my father Abraam, even to you and to your seed after you, to inherit the land of your sojourning, which God gave to Abraam.
Ati biyya amma alagummaadhaan keessa jiraattu, biyya Waaqni dhaala godhee Abrahaamiif kenne sana akka dhaaltuuf inni eebba Abrahaamiif kenne sii fi sanyii keetiif haa kennu.”
5 So Isaac sent away Jacob, and he went into Mesopotamia to Laban the son of Bethuel the Syrian, the brother of Rebecca the mother of Jacob and Esau.
Yisihaaqis akkasitti Yaaqoobin erge; Yaaqoobis gara kaaba dhiʼa Phaadaan Arraam gara Laabaa ilma Betuuʼeel namicha Arraam sanaa dhaqe; Laabaan kun immoo obboleessa Ribqaa, haadha Yaaqoobii fi Esaawu.
6 And Esau saw that Isaac blessed Jacob, and sent him away to Mesopotamia of Syria as he blessed him, to take to himself a wife thence, and [that] he charged him, saying, You shall not take a wife of the daughters of the Chananites;
Esaawu akka Yisihaaq Yaaqoobin eebbisee akka inni achii niitii fuudhuuf gara kaaba dhiʼa Phaadaan Arraamitti isa ergee fi akka isa eebbisettis “Intallan warra Kanaʼaan hin fuudhin” jedhee isa ajaje yommuu beeketti;
7 and [that] Jacob listened to his father and his mother, and went to Mesopotamia of Syria.
Yaaqoob abbaa fi haadha isaatiif ajajamee gara kaaba dhiʼa Phaadaan Arraam dhaqe.
8 And Esau also having seen that the daughters of Chanaan were evil before his father Isaac,
Esaawus intallan warra Kanaʼaan fuula abbaa isaa Yisihaaq duratti hammam jibbamoo akka taʼan hubate.
9 Esau went to Ismael, and took Maeleth the daughter of Ismael, the son of Abraam, the sister of Nabeoth, a wife in addition to his [other] wives.
Kanaafuu Esaaw gara Ishmaaʼeel ilma Abrahaam dhaqee Maahalaati intala Ishmaaʼeel obboleettii Nabaayoti niitota dur qabu irratti dabalee fuudhe.
10 And Jacob went forth from the well of the oath, and departed into Charrhan.
Yaaqoob Bersheebaa baʼee Kaaraan dhaqe.
11 And came to a certain place and slept there, for the sun had gone down; and he took [one] of the stones of the place, and put it at his head, and lay down to sleep in that place,
Innis iddoo tokko gaʼee aduun dhiinaan achi bule; dhagoota achi turan keessaas tokko fudhatee mataa jala kaaʼatee rafuuf ciise.
12 and dreamed, and behold a ladder fixed on the earth, whose top reached to heaven, and the angels of God ascended and descended on it.
Innis achitti abjuu abjoote; kunoo yaabbannoo lafa dhaabatee fiixeen isaa immoo samii gaʼu tokko arge; kunoo ergamoonni Waaqayyoo yaabbannoo sana irra ol baʼaa fi gad buʼaa turan.
13 And the Lord stood upon it, and said, I am the God of your father Abraam, and the God of Isaac; fear not, the land on which you lie, to you will I give it, and to your seed.
Kunoo Waaqayyo yaabbannoo sana gara irraa dhaabatee akkana jedhe; “Ani Waaqayyo Waaqa abbaa kee Abrahaamii fi Waaqa Yisihaaq; ani lafa ati irra ciiftu kana siif fi sanyii keetiif nan kenna.
14 And your seed shall be as the sand of the earth; and it shall spread abroad to the sea, and the south, and the north, and to the east; and in you and in your seed shall all the tribes of the earth be blessed.
Sanyiin kee akkuma biyyoo lafaa ni baayʼata; atis gara dhiʼaatti, gara baʼaatti, gara kaabaattii fi kibbaatti ni babalʼatta. Uummanni lafa irraa hundinuu karaa keetii fi karaa sanyii keetiitiin ni eebbifama.
15 And behold I am with you to preserve you continually in all the way wherein you shall go; and I will bring you back to this land; for I will not desert you, until I have done all that I have said to you.
Kunoo ani si wajjinan jira; lafa ati dhaqxu hundattis sin eega; gara biyya kanaattis deebisee sin fida. Ani hamman waanan waadaa siif gale sana siif guututti si hin dhiisu.”
16 And Jacob awaked out of his sleep, and said, The Lord is in this place, and I knew it not.
Yaaqoobis yommuu hirribaa kaʼetti, “Dhugumaan Waaqayyo iddoo kana jira; ani waan kana hin hubanne” jedhe.
17 And he was afraid, and said, How fearful is this place! this is none other than the house of God, and this is the gate of heaven.
Innis sodaatee, “Iddoon kun akkam nama sodaachisa! Kun mana Waaqaa ti malee waan biraa miti; kun karra samiiti” jedhe.
18 And Jacob rose up in the morning, and took the stone he [had] laid there by his head, and he set it up [as] a pillar, and poured oil on the top of it.
Yaaqoobis guyyaa itti aanu ganama obboroo kaʼee dhagaa mataa jala kaaʼatee ture sana fuudhee akka utubaatti ol dhaabe; fiixee isaa irrattis zayitii dhangalaase.
19 And he called the name of that place, the House of God; and the name of the city before was Ulam-luz.
Innis maqaa iddoo sanaa Beetʼeel jedhee moggaase; duraan garuu magaalaan sun Luuzi jedhama ture.
20 And Jacob vowed a vow, saying, If the Lord God will be with me, and guard me throughout on this journey, on which I am going, and give me bread to eat, and raiment to put on,
Ergasiis Yaaqoob akkana jedhee wareege; “Yoo Waaqni na wajjin taʼe, yoo inni karaa ani deemu kana irratti na eege, yoo waan ani nyaadhuu fi waan ani uffadhu naa kenne,
21 and bring me back in safety to the house of my father, then shall the Lord be for a God to me.
yoo ani nagaan mana abbaa kootti deebiʼe, Waaqayyo Waaqa koo ni taʼa;
22 And this stone, which I have set up for a pillar, shall be to me a house of God; and of all whatever you shall give me, I will tithe a tenth for you.
dhagaan ani utubaa godhee ol dhaabe kunis mana Waaqaa taʼa; waan ati naa kennitu keessaas kudhan keessaa tokko siifin kenna.”
