Genesis 28
1 Isaac called Jacob, blessed him, and commanded him, "You must not take a wife from the daughters of Canaan.
| فَاسْتَدْعَى إِسْحاقُ يَعْقُوبَ وَبَارَكَهُ وَأَوْصَاهُ قَائِلاً: «لا تَتَزَوَّجْ مِنْ بَنَاتِ كَنْعَانَ. | ١ |
2 Arise, go to Paddan Aram, to the house of Bethuel your mother's father. Take a wife from there from the daughters of Laban, your mother's brother.
| قُمِ انْطَلِقْ إِلَى سَهْلِ أَرَامَ، إِلَى بَيْتِ بَتُوئِيلَ أَبِي أُمِّكَ، وَتَزَوَّجْ إِحْدَى بَنَاتِ خَالِكَ لابَانَ. | ٢ |
3 May El Shaddai bless you, and make you fruitful, and multiply you, that you may be a company of peoples,
| وَلْيُبَارِكْكَ اللهُ الْقَدِيرُ وَيُنَمِّكَ وَيُكَثِّرْكَ لِتَكُونَ أُمَّةً تَتَفَرَّعُ مِنْهَا شُعُوبٌ كَثِيرَةٌ، | ٣ |
4 and give you the blessing of Abraham, to you, and to your descendants with you, that you may inherit the land where you travel, which God gave to Abraham."
| وَلْيُعْطِكَ أَنْتَ وَذُرِّيَّتَكَ مَعَكَ بَرَكَةَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ لِتَرِثَ أَرْضَ غُرْبَتِكَ الَّتِي تُقِيمُ فِيهَا الآنَ؛ هَذِهِ الأَرْضَ الَّتِي وَهَبَهَا اللهُ لإِبْرَاهِيمَ». | ٤ |
5 Isaac sent Jacob away. He went to Paddan Aram to Laban, son of Bethuel the Aramean, Rebekah's brother, Jacob's and Esau's mother.
| ثُمَّ صَرَفَ إِسْحاقُ يَعْقُوبَ فَمَضَى إِلَى سَهْلِ أَرَامَ، حَيْثُ يُقِيمُ لابَانُ بْنُ بَتُوئِيلَ الأَرَامِيُّ أَخُو رِفْقَةَ أُمِّ يَعْقُوبَ وَعِيسُو. | ٥ |
6 Now Esau saw that Isaac had blessed Jacob and sent him away to Paddan Aram, to take him a wife from there, and that as he blessed him he gave him a command, saying, "You must not take a wife from the daughters of Canaan,"
| وَلَمَّا رَأَى عِيسُو أَنَّ إِسْحاقَ قَدْ بَارَكَ يَعْقُوبَ وَصَرَفَهُ إِلَى سَهْلِ أَرَامَ لِيَخْتَارَ مِنْ هُنَاكَ زَوْجَةً، وَأَوْصَاهُ قَائِلاً: «لا تَتَزَوَّجِ امْرَأَةً كَنْعَانِيَّةً» | ٦ |
7 and that Jacob obeyed his father and his mother, and left for Paddan Aram.
| وَأَنَّ يَعْقُوبَ أَطَاعَ وَالِدَيْهِ وَارْتَحَلَ إِلَى سَهْلِ أَرَامَ | ٧ |
8 Esau saw that the daughters of Canaan did not please Isaac, his father.
| وَإِذْ رَأَى عِيسُو أَنَّ بَنَاتِ كَنْعَانَ شِرِّيرَاتٌ لَمْ يَحْظَيْنَ بِرِضَى أَبِيهِ | ٨ |
9 Esau went to Ishmael, and took, besides the wives that he had, Mahalath the daughter of Ishmael, Abraham's son, the sister of Nebaioth, to be his wife.
| مَضَى إِلَى إِسْمَاعِيلَ عَمِّهِ وَأَخَذَ مَحْلَةَ ابْنَةَ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، أُخْتَ نَبَايُوتَ، زَوْجَةً لَهُ عَلَى نِسَائِهِ. | ٩ |
10 Jacob went out from Beersheba, and went toward Haran.
| أَمَّا يَعْقُوبُ فَتَوَجَّهَ مِنْ بِئْرِ سَبْعٍ نَحْوَ حَارَانَ، | ١٠ |
11 He came to a certain place, and stayed there all night, because the sun had set. He took one of the stones of the place, and put it under his head, and lay down in that place to sleep.
| فَصَادَفَ مَوْضِعاً قَضَى فِيهِ لَيْلَتَهُ لأَنَّ الشَّمْسَ كَانَتْ قَدْ غَابَتْ، فَأَخَذَ بَعْضَ حِجَارَةِ الْمَوْضِعِ وَتَوَسَّدَهَا وَبَاتَ هُنَاكَ. | ١١ |
12 And he dreamed. And look, a stairway was set upon the earth, and its top reached to heaven. And look, the angels of God were ascending and descending on it.
| وَرَأَى حُلْماً شَاهَدَ فِيهِ سُلَّماً قَائِمَةً عَلَى الأَرْضِ وَرَأْسُهَا يَمَسُّ السَّمَاءَ، وَمَلائِكَةُ اللهِ تَصْعَدُ وَتَنْزِلُ عَلَيْهَا، | ١٢ |
13 And God stood above it, and said, "I am the God of Abraham your grandfather, and the God of Isaac. The land on which you are lying I will give to you and to your descendants.
| وَالرَّبُّ نَفْسُهُ وَاقِفٌ فَوْقَهَا يَقُولُ: «أَنَا هُوَ الرَّبُّ إِلَهُ أَبِيكَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَإِلَهُ إِسْحاقَ. إِنَّ الأَرْضَ الَّتِي تَرْقُدُ عَلَيْهَا الآنَ أُعْطِيهَا لَكَ وَلِذُرِّيَّتِكَ، | ١٣ |
14 Your descendants will be as the dust of the earth, and you will spread out to the west, and to the east, and to the north, and to the south. And through you and through your descendants will all the families of the earth be blessed.
| الَّتِي سَتَكُونُ كَتُرَابِ الأَرْضِ، وَتَمْتَدُّ غَرْباً وَشَرْقاً، وَشِمَالاً وَجَنُوباً، وَتَتَبَارَكُ بِكَ وَبِذُرِّيَّتِكَ جَمِيعُ شُعُوبِ الأَرْضِ. | ١٤ |
15 And look, I am with you, and will watch over you wherever you go, and will bring you again into this land. For I will not leave you, until I have done that which I have spoken of to you."
| هَا أَنَا مَعَكَ وَأَرْعَاكَ حَيْثُمَا تَذْهَبُ، وَأَرُدُّكَ إِلَى هَذِهِ الأَرْضِ. وَلَنْ أَتْرُكَكَ إِلَى أَنْ أَفِيَ بِكُلِّ مَا وَعَدْتُكَ بِهِ». | ١٥ |
16 Then Jacob woke up from his sleep, and said, "Surely God is in this place, and I did not know it."
| ثُمَّ أَفَاقَ يَعْقُوبُ مِنْ نَوْمِهِ وَقَالَ: «حَقّاً إِنَّ الرَّبَّ فِي هَذَا الْمَوْضِعِ وَأَنَا لَمْ أَعْلَمْ!» | ١٦ |
17 He was afraid, and said, "How awesome is this place. This is none other than God's house, and this is the gate of heaven."
| وَاعْتَرَاهُ خَوْفٌ وَقَالَ: «مَا أَرْهَبَ هَذَا الْمَكَانَ! مَا هَذَا سِوَى بَيْتِ اللهِ وَهَذَا هُوَ بَابُ السَّمَاءِ». | ١٧ |
18 And Jacob rose up early in the morning, and took the stone that he had put under his head, and set it up as a standing-stone, and poured oil on top of it.
| ثُمَّ بَكَّرَ يَعْقُوبُ فِي الصَّبَاحِ، وَأَخَذَ الْحَجَرَ الَّذِي تَوَسَّدَهُ وَنَصَبَهُ عَمُوداً وَصَبَّ عَلَيْهِ زَيْتاً، | ١٨ |
19 He called the name of that place Bethel, though previously the city was named Luz.
| وَدَعَا الْمَكَانَ «بَيْتَ إِيلَ» (وَمَعْنَاهُ: بَيْتُ اللهِ) وَكَانَ اسْمُ الْمَدِينَةِ أَوَّلاً «لُوزَ». | ١٩ |
20 Then Jacob made a vow, saying, "If God will be with me, and will watch over me on this journey I am taking, and will give me food to eat, and clothing to put on,
| وَنَذَرَ يَعْقُوبُ نَذْراً قَائِلاً: «إِنْ كَانَ اللهُ مَعِي، وَرَعَانِي فِي هَذِهِ الطَّرِيقِ الَّتِي أَنَا أَسِيرُ فِيهَا وَوَفَّرَ لِي طَعَاماً لِآكُلَ وَثِيَاباً لأَلْبَسَ، | ٢٠ |
21 so that I return to my father's house safely, then he will be my God,
| وَعُدْتُ بِسَلامٍ إِلَى بَيْتِ أَبِي، عِنْدَئِذٍ يَكُونُ الرَّبُّ إِلَهاً لِي | ٢١ |
22 and this stone, which I have set up as a standing-stone, will be God's house. Of all that you will give me I will surely give the tenth to you."
| وَيَكُونُ هَذَا الْحَجَرُ الَّذِي نَصَبْتُهُ عَمُوداً بَيْتاً لِلهِ، وَأَدْفَعُ عُشْرَ كُلِّ مَا تَرْزُقُنِي بِهِ». | ٢٢ |
