< Genesis 35 >

1 And God says to Jacob, “Rise, go up to Bethel, and dwell there, and make there an altar to God, who appeared to you in your fleeing from the face of your brother Esau.”
Cathut ni Jakop koevah, thaw nateh Bethel kho vah cet nateh hawvah awm, na hmau Esaw koehoi na yawng nah nang koe ka kamnuek e Cathut hanelah thuengnae khoungroe hah sak telah ati.
2 And Jacob says to his household, and to all who [are] with him, “Turn aside the gods of the stranger which [are] in your midst, and cleanse yourselves, and change your garments;
Jakop ni a imthung hoi ama koe kaawm e tami pueng koe, nangmouh koe Jentelnaw e cathut kaawm e hah tâkhawng awh, kamthoung awh, na khohna hah kâthung awh.
3 and we rise, and go up to Bethel, and I make there an altar to God, who is answering me in the day of my tribulation, and is with me in the way that I have gone.”
Bethel vah luen awh sei. Rucatnae kâhmo awh lahun navah, na pathung teh ka cei nah tangkuem koevah, na ka awmkhaikung Cathut hanelah khoungroe ka sak han ati.
4 And they give to Jacob all the gods of the stranger that [are] in their hand, and the rings that [are] in their ears, and Jacob hides them under the oak which [is] by Shechem;
Hottelah hoi miphun alouke cathutnaw e a kut dawk e kaawm e pueng hoi a hnânaw dawk a pacap awh e naw hah Jakop a poe awh. Jakop ni Shekhem teng e kathen kung rahim vah a hro awh.
5 and they journey, and the terror of God is on the cities which [are] around them, and they have not pursued after the sons of Jacob.
A cei awh teh, Cathut takinae hah a tengpam e khonaw pueng dawk ao teh Jakop capa hah pâlei awh hoeh.
6 And Jacob comes to Luz which [is] in the land of Canaan (it [is] Bethel), he and all the people who [are] with him,
Jakop teh ama koe kaawm e naw pueng hoi Kanaan ram Luz vah a pha awh (Luz teh Bethel doeh).
7 and he builds there an altar, and proclaims at the place the God of Bethel: for there had God been revealed to him, in his fleeing from the face of his brother.
Hawvah khoungroe a sak teh, haw e hmuen teh El Bethel telah ati. Bangkongtetpawiteh a hmau koehoi a yawng lahun navah hawvah ahni koe Cathut a kamnue.
8 And Deborah, Rebekah’s nurse, dies, and she is buried at the lower part of Bethel, under the oak, and he calls its name “Oak of Weeping.”
Rebekah ka awmkhaikung Deborah hah a due teh, khoungroe rahim e bengkengkung rahim vah a pakawp awh. Hottelah hoi hote bengkeng e a min teh Allon Bakuth telah ati awh.
9 And God appears to Jacob again, in his coming from Padan-Aram, and blesses him;
Jakop teh Padam Aram ram lahoi a ban toteh, ahni koe Cathut bout a kamnue teh yawhawi a poe.
10 and God says to him, “Your name [is] Jacob: your name is no longer called Jacob, but Israel is your name”; and He calls his name Israel.
Cathut ni ahni koe na min teh Jakop eiteh, na min teh Jakop telah tet awh mahoeh toe, na min teh Isarel ti han toe telah ati. Hottelah hoi a min hah Isarel telah ati.
11 And God says to him, “I [am] God Almighty; be fruitful and multiply, a nation and an assembly of nations is from you, and kings from your loins go out;
Hahoi Cathut ni ahni koevah, kai teh Athakasaipounge Cathut lah ka o. Canaw pungdaw nateh, nange miphun dawk hoi siangpahrangnaw a tâco han.
12 and the land which I have given to Abraham and to Isaac—to you I give it, indeed to your seed after you I give the land.”
Abraham hoi Isak koevah, ka poe e ram heh nang na poe, na catounnaw totouh ka poe telah ati.
13 And God goes up from him, in the place where He has spoken with him.
Hattoteh Cathut ni ahni a patonae hmuen koehoi Jakop teh a luen takhai.
14 And Jacob sets up a standing pillar in the place where He has spoken with him, a standing pillar of stone, and he pours on it an oblation, and he pours on it oil;
A patonae hmuen koe Jakop ni talung a ung. A ung e teh talung doeh. A lathueng vah nei thuengnae hah a awi teh, satui hai a van vah a awi.
15 and Jacob calls the name of the place where God spoke with him Bethel.
Cathut ni a patonae hmuen hah Bethel telah min a phung.
16 And they journey from Bethel, and there is yet a distance of land before entering Ephratha, and Rachel bears, and is sharply pained in her bearing;
Bethel hoi a cei awh teh, Ephrath a pha awh nahanelah ahlapoung. Rachel camo o hane a pataw teh pueng hoi patawnae a khang.
17 and it comes to pass, in her being sharply pained in her bearing, that the midwife says to her, “Do not fear, for this also [is] a son for you.”
Hahoi, hettelah doeh. A patawnae a khang lahun nah camo kaawm sak e ni taket hanh ca tongpa alouke na khe han dawk doeh telah atipouh.
18 And it comes to pass in the going out of her soul (for she died), that she calls his name Ben-Oni; and his father called him Benjamin;
Hahoi, a muitha a tâco tawmlei vah, a min hah Benoni ati teh, a na pa ni Benjamin telah a phung.
19 and Rachel dies, and is buried in the way to Ephratha, which [is] Beth-Lehem,
Rachel a due teh Epharath ceinae lamthung dawk a pakawp awh.
20 and Jacob sets up a standing pillar over her grave; which [is] the standing pillar of Rachel’s grave to this day.
A tangkom van vah Jakop ni talung a ung teh, hothateh nout nahanelah Rachel pakawpnae tangkom lah ao.
21 And Israel journeys, and stretches out his tent beyond the Tower of Edar;
Isarel teh pou bout a cei teh, Mikdaleder imrasang hloilah rim a sak.
22 and it comes to pass in Israel’s dwelling in that land, that Reuben goes, and lies with his father’s concubine Bilhah; and Israel hears.
Hahoi, Isarel teh haw e ram dawk ao lahun navah, Reuben ni a na pa e ado Bilhah a ikhai e hah Isarel ni a thai.
23 And the sons of Jacob are twelve. Sons of Leah: Jacob’s firstborn Reuben, and Simeon, and Levi, and Judah, and Issachar, and Zebulun.
Jakop capanaw teh 12 touh a pha awh. Leah capanaw thung dawk Reuben teh Jakop e camin la ao teh Simeon, Levih, Judah, Issakhar hoi Zebulun tinaw doeh.
24 Sons of Rachel: Joseph and Benjamin.
Rachel capanaw teh Joseph hoi Benjamin doeh.
25 And sons of Bilhah, Rachel’s maidservant: Dan and Naphtali.
Rachel e a san Bilhah capanaw teh Dan hoi Naphtali doeh.
26 And sons of Zilpah, Leah’s maidservant: Gad and Asher. These [are] sons of Jacob, who have been born to him in Padan-Aram.
Leah e sannu Zilpah canaw teh Gad hoi Asher doeh. Hetnaw teh Paddanaram Jakop ni khe e ca tongpanaw doeh.
27 And Jacob comes to his father Isaac, at Mamre, the city of Arba (which [is] Hebron), where Abraham and Isaac have sojourned.
Jakop ni Mamre Kiriatharba (Hebron) e a na pa Isak hoi Abraham onae koe a pha.
28 And the days of Isaac are one hundred and eighty years,
Isak a hringyung teh kum 180 touh a pha.
29 and Isaac expires, and dies, and is gathered to his people, aged and satisfied with days; and his sons Esau and Jacob bury him.
Isak ni hnukteng a kâha a phout teh a hnin pakhit lahoi a due. A due toteh a huikonaw koe pakawp e lah ao van teh a capa Esaw hoi Jakop ni a pakawp roi.
