< Genesis 28 >

1 And Isaac calls to Jacob, and blesses him, and commands him, and says to him, “You must not take a wife of the daughters of Canaan;
Ary Isaka nampaka an’ i Jakoba ka nitso-drano azy ary namepetra azy hoe: Aza maka vady avy amin’ ny zanakavavin’ ny Kananita ianao.
2 rise, go to Padan-Aram, to the house of your mother’s father Bethuel, and take for yourself a wife from there, from the daughters of your mother’s brother Laban;
Miainga ka mankanesa any Mesopotamia, any amin’ ny tranon’ i Betoela rain-dreninao; dia makà vady any, avy amin’ ny zanakavavin’ i Labana anadahin-dreninao.
3 and God Almighty bless you, and make you fruitful, and multiply you, and you have become an assembly of peoples;
Ary Andriamanitra Tsitoha anie hitahy anao ka hahamaro fara anao sy hampitombo anao, mba ho tonga firenena maro ianao;
4 and He gives to you the blessing of Abraham, to you and to your seed with you, to cause you to possess the land of your sojournings, which God gave to Abraham.”
ary homeny anao anie ny fitahiana an’ i Abrahama, dia ho anao sy ny taranakao koa, mba handovanao ny tany fivahinianao, izay efa nomen’ Andriamanitra an’ i Abrahama.
5 And Isaac sends Jacob away, and he goes to Padan-Aram, to Laban, son of Bethuel the Aramean, brother of Rebekah, mother of Jacob and Esau.
Ary Isaka nampandeha an’ i Jakoba ka dia lasa izy nankany Mesopotamia, ho any amin’ i Labana, zanak’ i Betoela Syriana, anadahin-dRebeka, renin’ i Jakoba sy Esao.
6 And Esau sees that Isaac has blessed Jacob, and has sent him to Padan-Aram to take to himself from there a wife—in his blessing him that he lays a charge on him, saying, You must not take a wife from the daughters of Canaan—
Ary nony hitan’ i Esao fa Isaka efa nitso-drano an’ i Jakoba ka efa nampandeha azy ho any Mesopotamia haka vady any ary nitso-drano azy sady namepetra azy hoe: Aza maka vady avy amin’ ny zanakavavin’ ny Kananita ianao;
7 that Jacob listens to his father and to his mother, and goes to Padan-Aram—
koa Jakoba efa nanaraka ny tenin’ ny rainy aman-dreniny ka lasa nankany Mesopotamia;
8 and Esau sees that the daughters of Canaan are evil in the eyes of his father Isaac,
ary hitan’ i Esao fa efa ratsy teo imason’ Isaka rainy ny zanakavavin’ ny Kananita:
9 and Esau goes to Ishmael, and takes Mahalath, daughter of Ishmael, Abraham’s son, sister of Nebajoth, to his wives, to himself, for a wife.
dia lasa Esao nankany amin’ Isimaela ka naka an’ i Mahalota, zanakavavin’ Isimaela, zanak’ i Abrahama, sady anabavin’ i Nebaiota, ho vadiny, ho fanampin’ ny vady izay nananany.
10 And Jacob goes out from Beer-Sheba, and goes toward Haran,
Dia nivoaka avy tany Beri-sheba Jakoba ka nankany Harana.
11 and he touches at a [certain] place, and lodges there, for the sun has gone in, and he takes of the stones of the place, and makes [them] his pillows, and lies down in that place.
Ary tonga teo amin’ ny fitoerana anankiray izy ka nandry teo niloaka alina, satria efa maty ny masoandro; dia naka vato tamin’ izany fitoerana izany izy, ka nataony ondana, dia nandry teo izy.
12 And he dreams, and behold, a ladder set up on the earth, and its head is touching the heavens; and behold, messengers of God are going up and coming down by it;
Ary nanonofy izy, ka, indro, nisy tohatra niorina tamin’ ny tany, ka nipaka tamin’ ny lanitra ny lohany; ary, indreo, nisy anjelin’ Andriamanitra niakatra sy nidina teo aminy.
13 and behold, YHWH is standing on it, and He says, “I [am] YHWH, God of your father Abraham, and God of Isaac; the land on which you are lying, to you I give it, and to your seed;
Ary, indro, Jehovah niseho teo amboniny ka nanao hoe: Izaho no Jehovah, Andriamanitr’ i Abrahama rainao sy Andriamanitr’ Isaka; ny tany izay andrianao dia homeko anao sy ny taranakao;
14 and your seed has been as the dust of the land, and you have broken forth westward, and eastward, and northward, and southward, and all families of the ground have been blessed in you and in your seed.
ary ny taranakao ho be tahaka ny vovoka amin’ ny tany; dia hiely any andrefana sy any atsinanana ary any avaratra sy any atsimo ianao; ary aminao sy ny taranakao no hitahiana ny firenena rehetra ambonin’ ny tany.
15 And behold, I [am] with you, and have kept you wherever you go, and have caused you to return to this ground; for I do not leave you until I have surely done that which I have spoken to you.”
Ary, indro, Izaho momba anao ka hiaro anao amin’ izay lalan-kalehanao rehetra ary hampody anao indray ho amin’ ity tany ity; fa tsy handao anao Aho mandra-panaoko izay voalazako taminao.
16 And Jacob awakens out of his sleep and says, “Surely YHWH is in this place, and I did not know”;
Ary Jakoba nahatsiaro tamin’ ny torimasony, dia nanao hoe: Ato amin’ ity fitoerana ity tokoa Jehovah, fa izaho no tsy nahalala.
17 and he fears and says, “How fearful [is] this place; this is nothing but a house of God, and this a gate of the heavens.”
Dia raiki-tahotra izy ka nanao hoe: Endrey, mahatahotra ity fitoerana ity! tsy hafa ity, fa tranon’ Andriamanitra sy vavahadin’ ny lanitra.
18 And Jacob rises early in the morning, and takes the stone which he has made his pillows, and makes it a standing pillar, and pours oil on its top,
Ary nifoha maraina koa Jakoba, dia naka ilay vato izay nataony ondana ka nanorina azy ho tsangam-bato, dia nampidina diloilo teo aminy.
19 and he calls the name of that place Bethel, [house of God, ] and yet, Luz [is] the name of the city at the first.
Ary ny anaran’ izany fitoerana izany dia nataony hoe Betela, fa Lozy no anaran’ ilay tanàna tany aloha.
20 And Jacob vows a vow, saying, “Seeing God is with me, and has kept me in this way which I am going, and has given to me bread to eat, and a garment to put on—
Dia nivoady Jakoba ka nanao hoe: Raha homba ahy Andriamanitra ka hiaro ahy amin’ izao lalana alehako izao, ary hanome ahy mofo hohaniko sy lamba hitafiako,
21 when I have turned back in peace to the house of my father, and YHWH has become my God,
ka ho tafaverina soa aman-tsara any amin’ ny tranon’ ny raiko aho, dia Jehovah no ho Andriamanitro,
22 then this stone which I have made a standing pillar is a house of God, and all that You give to me—tithing I tithe to You.”
ary ity vato izay naoriko ho tsangam-bato ity ho tranon’ Andriamanitra, ary izay rehetra homenao ahy, dia homeko Anao tokoa ny ampahafolony.
