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."
Pada suatu hari Allah berkata kepada Yakub, "Akulah Allah yang menampakkan diri kepadamu ketika engkau lari dari abangmu Esau. Pergilah segera ke Betel. Tinggallah di situ dan dirikanlah sebuah mezbah bagi-Ku."
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.
Lalu Yakub berkata kepada keluarganya dan kepada semua orang yang ada bersama-sama dengan dia, "Kita akan berangkat dari sini dan pergi ke Betel. Di situ saya akan mendirikan mezbah bagi Allah yang telah menolong saya pada masa kesukaran saya dan yang telah melindungi saya ke mana saja saya pergi. Jadi buanglah patung dewa-dewa asing yang ada padamu; lakukanlah upacara pembersihan diri dan kenakanlah pakaian yang bersih."
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."
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.
Lalu mereka menyerahkan kepada Yakub semua patung dewa asing yang ada pada mereka dan juga anting-anting mereka. Semua benda itu ditanam Yakub di bawah pohon besar di dekat kota Sikhem.
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.
Pada waktu Yakub dan rombongan keluarganya berangkat, Allah meliputi penduduk kota-kota sekitar dengan rasa takut, sehingga mereka tidak mengejar Yakub dan rombongannya.
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.
Lalu sampailah mereka di tanah Kanaan di kota Betel yang dahulu bernama Lus.
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.
Di situ Yakub mendirikan mezbah dan menamakan tempat itu "El-Betel", karena Allah telah menampakkan diri kepadanya di situ ketika ia lari dari abangnya.
8 Now Deborah, Rebekah's nurse, died, and she was buried under an oak outside Bethel. So he called its name Allon Bakuth.
Di sana juga Debora, inang pengasuh Ribka, meninggal lalu dikuburkan di bawah pohon besar di sebelah selatan kota itu. Itulah sebabnya pohon itu dinamakan "Pohon Tangis".
9 And God appeared to Jacob again after he returned from Paddan Aram, and blessed him.
Setelah Yakub kembali dari Mesopotamia, Allah menampakkan diri lagi kepadanya dan memberkatinya.
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.
Kata Allah kepadanya, "Engkau tidak akan disebut lagi Yakub, tetapi Israel." Demikianlah Allah menamakan dia Israel.
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.
Lalu kata Allah pula, "Akulah Allah Yang Mahakuasa. Hendaklah engkau beranak cucu yang banyak! Engkau akan menurunkan bangsa-bangsa dan menjadi bapak leluhur raja-raja.
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."
Negeri yang telah Kuberikan kepada Abraham dan Ishak, akan Kuberikan kepadamu dan keturunanmu."
13 Then God went up from him in the place where he spoke with him.
Setelah itu Allah meninggalkan Yakub.
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.
Di tempat Allah berbicara kepada Yakub, ia menegakkan sebuah batu peringatan. Lalu batu itu dipersembahkannya kepada Allah dengan menuangkan anggur dan minyak zaitun di atasnya.
15 Jacob called the name of the place where God spoke with him Bethel.
Tempat itu dinamakannya "Betel".
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.
Sesudah itu Yakub dan rombongannya meninggalkan Betel. Ketika mereka masih agak jauh dari Efrata, tibalah saatnya bagi Rahel untuk melahirkan. Tetapi anaknya sukar lahir.
17 When she was in the difficult labor, the midwife said to her, "Do not be afraid, for now you have another son."
Ketika sakit bersalinnya memuncak, berkatalah bidan kepadanya, "Besarkan hatimu, Rahel, anakmu laki-laki lagi."
18 It happened, as her life was departing (for she died), that she named him Ben-Oni, but his father named him Benjamin.
Tetapi Rahel sudah mendekati ajalnya, dan ketika ia hendak menghembuskan napasnya yang penghabisan, dinamakannya anak itu Ben-Oni tetapi ayahnya menamakannya Benyamin.
19 So Rachel died and was buried on the way to Ephrath (that is, Bethlehem).
Setelah Rahel meninggal, ia dikuburkan di sisi jalan yang menuju ke Efrata, yang sekarang bernama Betlehem.
20 Jacob set up a standing-stone on her grave. It is the standing-stone of Rachel's grave to this day.
Yakub menegakkan sebuah batu peringatan di situ, dan sampai hari ini pun kuburan Rahel masih ditandai oleh batu itu.
21 And Israel traveled and pitched his tent beyond Migdal Eder.
Sesudah itu Yakub meneruskan perjalanannya, lalu memasang kemahnya di suatu tempat lewat menara Eder.
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.
Sementara mereka ada di tempat itu Ruben tidur dengan Bilha, selir ayahnya. Hal itu didengar Yakub, dan ia menjadi sangat marah. Yakub mempunyai dua belas anak laki-laki.
23 The sons of Leah: Reuben, Jacob's firstborn, and Simeon, and Levi, and Judah, and Issachar, and Zebulun.
Anak-anak Lea ialah Ruben (anak sulung Yakub), Simeon, Lewi, Yehuda, Isakhar dan Zebulon.
24 The sons of Rachel: Joseph and Benjamin.
Anak-anak Rahel ialah Yusuf dan Benyamin.
25 And the sons of Bilhah, Rachel's servant: Dan and Naphtali.
Anak-anak Bilha, hamba Rahel ialah Dan serta Naftali.
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.
Anak-anak Zilpa, hamba Lea ialah Gad dan Asyer. Anak-anak itu lahir di Mesopotamia.
27 So Jacob came to Isaac his father at Mamre in Kiriath Arba (which is Hebron), where Abraham and Isaac had sojourned.
Lalu sampailah Yakub kepada Ishak ayahnya, di tempat tinggalnya di Mamre dekat Hebron. (Dulu Abraham kakeknya, juga tinggal di sana).
28 Now the days of Isaac were one hundred eighty years.
Pada usia amat tua, yaitu seratus delapan puluh tahun, Ishak meninggal lalu dikuburkan oleh Esau dan Yakub, anak-anaknya.
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.
