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.”

Pea naʻe folofola ʻe he ʻOtua kia Sēkope, “Tuʻu hake ʻo ʻalu ki Peteli, pea nofo ai; pea ke ngaohi ʻi ai ʻae ʻesifeilaulau ki he ʻOtua, ʻaia naʻe hā kiate koe ʻi hoʻo hola mei he ʻao ʻo ho taʻokete ko ʻIsoa.”

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;

Pea fekau ai ʻe Sēkope ki hono kau nofoʻanga, pea mo kinautolu kotoa pē naʻe ʻiate ia, ʻo pehē; “Tukuange ʻae ngaahi ʻotua kehe ʻoku ʻiate kimoutolu, pea mou maʻa, pea fetongi homou ngaahi kofu.

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.”

Pea ke tau tuʻu hake, ʻo ʻalu ki Peteli: pea te u ngaohi ai ʻae ʻesifeilaulau ki he ʻOtua, ʻaia naʻe tali ʻeku hū, ʻi he ʻaho ʻo ʻeku mamahi, pea naʻe ʻiate au ʻi he hala naʻaku ʻalu ai.

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;

Pea naʻa nau tuku kia Sēkope honau ngaahi ʻotua kehe kotoa pē naʻe ʻi honau nima, mo honau ngaahi hau, naʻe ʻi honau telinga; pea naʻe fufū ia ʻe Sēkope ʻi he lalo [ʻakau ]ko e oke naʻe ofi ki Sikemi.”

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.

Pea naʻa nau fononga; pea ko e manavahē ki he ʻOtua, naʻe ʻi he ngaahi kolo kotoa pē naʻe tuʻu takatakai ʻiate kinautolu, pea naʻe ʻikai te nau tuli ʻae ngaahi foha ʻo Sēkope.

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,

Pea hoko ʻa Sēkope ki Lusa, ʻi he fonua ko Kēnani, ʻaia ko Peteli, ko ia mo e kakai naʻe ʻiate ia.

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.

Pea naʻe fokotuʻu ʻe ia ʻi ai ʻae ʻesifeilaulau, ʻo ne ui ʻae potu ko ia, ko ʻElepeteli: koeʻuhi naʻe hā ai ʻae ʻOtua kiate ia, ʻi heʻene hola mei he ʻao ʻo hono taʻokete.

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.”

Pea naʻe pekia ai ʻa Tepola ko e tauhi ʻo Lepeka, pea naʻe tanu ia ʻi Peteli, ʻi he lalo oke; pea naʻe fakahingoa ʻae potu ko ʻAlonipakuti.

9 And God appears to Jacob again, in his coming from Padan-Aram, and blesses him;

Pea naʻe toe hā ʻae ʻOtua kia Sēkope, ʻi heʻene haʻu mei Petanalami, ʻo ne tāpuaki ia.

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.

Pea pehē ʻe he ʻOtua kiate ia, “Ko ho hingoa ko Sēkope: ka e ʻikai toe ui ho hingoa ko Sēkope, ka ko ʻIsileli ho hingoa: pea ne ui hono hingoa ko ʻIsileli.”

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;

Pea pehē ʻe he ʻOtua kiate ia, “Ko e ʻOtua Māfimafi au ke ke monūʻia, ʻo tupu ke tokolahi ko e puleʻanga, mo e ngaahi puleʻanga ʻe tupu ʻiate koe, pea ʻe tupu ʻiate koe ʻae ngaahi tuʻi.

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.”

Pea ko e fonua naʻaku tuku kia ʻEpalahame mo ʻAisake, ʻoku ou foaki ia kiate koe, pea mo ho hako ʻamui ʻiate koe, te u foaki ki ai ʻae fonua.”

13 And God goes up from him, in the place where He has spoken with him.

Pea naʻe hāʻele hake ʻae ʻOtua meiate ia, mei he potu naʻa ne folofola ai kiate ia.

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;

Pea naʻe fokotuʻu ʻe Sēkope ʻae pou ʻi he potu naʻa ne folofola ai kiate ia, ʻio, ʻae pou maka: pea ne lilingi ki ai ʻae feilaulau inu, pea ne lilingi ki ai ʻae lolo.

15 and Jacob calls the name of the place where God spoke with him Bethel.

Pea naʻe ui ʻe Sēkope ʻae hingoa ʻoe potu ko ia naʻe folofola ai ʻae ʻOtua kiate ia, ko Peteli.

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;

Pea naʻa nau fononga mei Peteli pea naʻe toetoe siʻi pe, ke nau hoko ki ʻEfelata, pea naʻe langā ai ʻa Lesieli, pea naʻe faingataʻa.

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.”

Pea ʻi heʻene kei langā, naʻe lea ʻae māʻuli kiate ia, ʻo pehē, “ʻOua te ke manavahē; he te ke maʻu ʻae tama ni foki.”

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;

Pea ʻi he tei ʻalu hono laumālie, (he naʻe pekia ia, ) pea ne ui hono hingoa ko Penioni; ka naʻe ui ia ʻe heʻene tamai ko Penisimani.

19 and Rachel dies, and is buried in the way to Ephratha, which [is] Beth-Lehem,

Pea naʻe pekia ʻa Lesieli, pea tanu ia ʻi he hala ʻoku tau ki ʻEfelata, ʻaia ko Petelihema.

20 and Jacob sets up a standing pillar over her grave; which [is] the standing pillar of Rachel’s grave to this day.

Pea naʻe fokotuʻu ʻe Sēkope ʻae pou ki hono tanuʻanga; pea ko e pou ia ʻoe tanuʻanga ʻo Lesieli, ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ni.

21 And Israel journeys, and stretches out his tent beyond the Tower of Edar;

Pea naʻe fai fononga ʻa ʻIsileli, pea folahi hono fale fehikitaki ki kō atu ʻoe fale māʻolunga ko ʻEta.

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.

Pea ʻi he kei nofo ʻa ʻIsileli ʻi he fonua ko ia, naʻe ʻalu ʻa Lupeni ʻo na mohe mo Pila, ko e sinifu ʻo ʻene tamai; pea fanongo ki ai ʻa ʻIsileli. Pea ko e ngaahi foha ʻo Sēkope naʻe toko hongofulu ma toko ua.

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.

Ko e ngaahi tama ʻa Lia: ko Lupeni, ko e ʻuluaki ʻo Sēkope, mo Simione, mo Livai, mo Siuta, mo ʻIsaka, mo Sepuloni.

24 Sons of Rachel: Joseph and Benjamin.

Ko e ongo tama ʻa Lesieli: ko Siosefa mo Penisimani.

25 And sons of Bilhah, Rachel’s maidservant: Dan and Naphtali.

Pea ko e ongo tama ʻa Pila, ko e kaunanga ʻa Lesieli, ko Tani, mo Nafitali.

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.

Pea ko e ongo tama ʻa Silipa, ko e kaunanga ʻa Lia; ko Kata mo ʻAseli; ko e ngaahi foha eni ʻo Sēkope, naʻe fanauʻi kiate ia ʻi Petanalami.

27 And Jacob comes to his father Isaac, at Mamre, the city of Arba (which [is] Hebron), where Abraham and Isaac have sojourned.

Pea naʻe haʻu ʻa Sēkope ki heʻene tamai ko ʻAisake ʻi Mamili, ki he kolo ko ʻAapa, ʻaia ko Hepeloni, ko e potu naʻe ʻāunofo ai ʻa ʻEpalahame mo ʻAisake.

28 And the days of Isaac are one hundred and eighty years,

Pea ko e ngaahi ʻaho ʻo ʻAisake, ko e taʻu ʻe teau, mo e taʻu ʻe valungofulu.

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.

Pea tukuange ʻe ʻAisake ʻa hono laumālie, pea pekia ia, pea fakataha ia ki hono kakai, kuo motuʻa, naʻe aʻu hono ngaahi ʻaho; pea naʻe tanu ia ʻe hono ongo foha, ko ʻIsoa, mo Sēkope.
