< Genesis 35 >

1 And God said to Jacob, "Arise, go up to Bethel, and live there. Make an altar there to God, who appeared to you when you fled from 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 Then Jacob said to his household and to all who were with him, "Get rid of the foreign gods that you have among you, and purify yourselves and change your clothes.
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 Let us arise and go up to Bethel, and I will make an altar there to God, who answered me in the day of my distress, and has been with me wherever I went."
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 So they gave to Jacob all the foreign gods which were in their possession, and the rings that were in their ears, and Jacob buried them under the oak that was near 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 Then they set out, and a terror of God was upon the cities that were around them, so that they did not pursue 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 So Jacob came to Luz (that is, Bethel), which is in the land of Canaan, he and all the people who were with him.
Jakop teh ama koe kaawm e naw pueng hoi Kanaan ram Luz vah a pha awh (Luz teh Bethel doeh).
7 He built an altar there, and called the place El Bethel, because there God had revealed himself to him when he was fleeing from 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 Now Deborah, Rebekah's nurse, died, and she was buried under an oak outside Bethel. So he called its name Allon Bakuth.
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 appeared to Jacob again after he returned from Paddan Aram, and blessed him.
Jakop teh Padam Aram ram lahoi a ban toteh, ahni koe Cathut bout a kamnue teh yawhawi a poe.
10 God said to him, "Your name is Jacob. Your name will no longer be called Jacob, but your name will be Israel." So he called 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 said to him, "I am El Shaddai. Be fruitful and multiply. A nation and a company of nations will come from you, and kings will come from your body.
Hahoi Cathut ni ahni koevah, kai teh Athakasaipounge Cathut lah ka o. Canaw pungdaw nateh, nange miphun dawk hoi siangpahrangnaw a tâco han.
12 The land which I gave to Abraham and Isaac, I will give to you, and I will give the land to your descendants after you."
Abraham hoi Isak koevah, ka poe e ram heh nang na poe, na catounnaw totouh ka poe telah ati.
13 Then God went up from him in the place where he spoke with him.
Hattoteh Cathut ni ahni a patonae hmuen koehoi Jakop teh a luen takhai.
14 And Jacob set up a standing-stone in the place where he spoke with him, a pillar of stone. And he poured out a drink offering on it, and poured oil on it.
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 Jacob called the name of the place where God spoke with him Bethel.
Cathut ni a patonae hmuen hah Bethel telah min a phung.
16 Then they set out from Bethel. There was still some distance to come to Ephrath, and Rachel went into labor, and her labor was difficult.
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 When she was in the difficult labor, the midwife said to her, "Do not be afraid, for now you have another son."
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 It happened, as her life was departing (for she died), that she named him Ben-Oni, but his father named him Benjamin.
Hahoi, a muitha a tâco tawmlei vah, a min hah Benoni ati teh, a na pa ni Benjamin telah a phung.
19 So Rachel died and was buried on the way to Ephrath (that is, Bethlehem).
Rachel a due teh Epharath ceinae lamthung dawk a pakawp awh.
20 Jacob set up a standing-stone on her grave. It is the standing-stone 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 traveled and pitched his tent beyond Migdal Eder.
Isarel teh pou bout a cei teh, Mikdaleder imrasang hloilah rim a sak.
22 It happened, while Israel lived in that land, that Reuben went and slept with Bilhah, his father's secondary wife, and Israel heard about it. Now the sons of Jacob were twelve.
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 The sons of Leah: Reuben, Jacob's firstborn, 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 The sons of Rachel: Joseph and Benjamin.
Rachel capanaw teh Joseph hoi Benjamin doeh.
25 And the sons of Bilhah, Rachel's servant: Dan and Naphtali.
Rachel e a san Bilhah capanaw teh Dan hoi Naphtali doeh.
26 And the sons of Zilpah, Leah's servant: Gad and Asher. These are the sons of Jacob who were born to him in Paddan Aram.
Leah e sannu Zilpah canaw teh Gad hoi Asher doeh. Hetnaw teh Paddanaram Jakop ni khe e ca tongpanaw doeh.
27 So Jacob came to Isaac his father at Mamre in Kiriath Arba (which is Hebron), where Abraham and Isaac had sojourned.
Jakop ni Mamre Kiriatharba (Hebron) e a na pa Isak hoi Abraham onae koe a pha.
28 Now the days of Isaac were one hundred eighty years.
Isak a hringyung teh kum 180 touh a pha.
29 And Isaac took his last breath and died, and was gathered to his people, old and full of days. And his sons Esau and Jacob buried 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.
