Genesis 28
1 And he summoned Isaac Jacob and he blessed him and he commanded him and he said to him not you must take a wife from [the] daughters of Canaan.
Llamó, pues, Isaac a Jacob y lo bendijo, y le dio esta orden: “No tomes mujer de las hijas de Canaán.
2 Arise go Paddan towards Aram [the] house of towards Bethuel [the] father of mother your and take for yourself from there a wife one of [the] daughters of Laban [the] brother of mother your.
Levántate y ve a Mesopotamia, a casa de Batuel, padre de tu madre, y toma de allí mujer, de las hijas de Labán, hermano de tu madre.
3 And God Almighty may he bless you and may he make fruitful you and may he multiply you and you will become a company of peoples.
Bendígate el Dios Todopoderoso, y te haga crecer, y te multiplique, para que llegues a ser padre de muchos pueblos.
4 And may he give to you [the] blessing of Abraham to you and to offspring your with you to take possession of you [the] land of sojournings your which he gave God to Abraham.
Y te conceda la bendición de Abrahán, a ti y a tu descendencia contigo; a fin de que poseas la tierra de tus peregrinaciones, que Dios ha dado a Abrahán.”
5 And he sent off Isaac Jacob and he went Paddan towards Aram to Laban [the] son of Bethuel the Aramean [the] brother of Rebekah [the] mother of Jacob and Esau.
Despidió, pues, Isaac a Jacob, el cual se fue a Mesopotamia, a Labán, hijo de Batuel, arameo, hermano de Rebeca, madre de Jacob y Esaú.
6 And he saw Esau that he had blessed Isaac Jacob and he had sent off him Paddan towards Aram to take for himself from there a wife when blessed he him and he had commanded to him saying not you must take a wife from [the] daughters of Canaan.
Vio, pues Esaú que Isaac había bendecido a Jacob, y le había enviado a Mesopotamia a fin de que allí se tomase mujer, y que al bendecirlo le había dado la orden: “No tomes mujer de las hijas de Canaán”,
7 And he had listened Jacob to father his and to mother his and he had gone Paddan towards Aram.
y que Jacob, obedeciendo a su padre y a su madre, había marchado a Mesopotamia,
8 And he saw Esau that [were] displeasing [the] daughters of Canaan in [the] eyes of Isaac father his.
conoció Esaú que las hijas de Canaán eran malas a los ojos de Isaac, su padre,
9 And he went Esau to Ishmael and he took Mahalath - [the] daughter of Ishmael [the] son of Abraham [the] sister of Nebaioth to wives his for himself to a wife.
por lo cual fue Esaú a Ismael, y se tomó por mujer, sobre las mujeres que ya tenía, a Mahalat, hija de Ismael, el hijo de Abrahán y hermana de Nabayot.
10 And he went out Jacob from Beer Sheba and he went Haran towards.
Jacob salió de Bersabee y se dirigió a Harán.
11 And he reached the place and he stayed [the] night there for it had gone the sun and he took one of [the] stones of the place and he put [it] [the] place of head his and he lay down in the place that.
Llegado a cierto lugar, pasó allí la noche, porque ya se había puesto el sol. Y tomando una de las piedras del lugar, se la puso por cabezal, y se acostó en aquel sitio.
12 And he dreamed and there! a stairway [was] placed [the] earth towards and top its [was] reaching the heavens towards and there! [the] angels of God [were] going up and [were] going down on it.
Y tuvo un sueño: he aquí una escalera que se apoyaba en la tierra, y cuya cima tocaba en el cielo; los ángeles de Dios subían y bajaban por ella.
13 And there! Yahweh [was] standing on it and he said I [am] Yahweh [the] God of Abraham father your and [the] God of Isaac the land which you [are] lying on it to you I will give it and to offspring your.
Y sobre ella estaba Yahvé, que dijo: “Yo soy Yahvé, el Dios de tu padre Abrahán, y el Dios de Isaac; la tierra en que estás acostado, te la daré a ti y a tu descendencia.
14 And it will be offspring your like [the] dust of the earth and you will spread out west-ward and east-ward and north-ward and south-ward and they will be blessed by you all [the] clans of the earth and by offspring your.
Tu posteridad será como el polvo de la tierra; y te extenderás hacia el occidente y hacia el oriente, hacia el aquilón y hacia el mediodía; y en ti y en tu descendencia serán benditas todas las tribus de la tierra.
15 And here! I [am] with you and I will protect you in every where you will go and I will bring back you to the land this for not I will abandon you until that I have done [that] which I have spoken to you.
Y he aquí que Yo estaré contigo, y te guardaré en todos tus caminos y te restituiré a esta tierra; porque no te abandonaré hasta haber cumplido cuanto te he dicho.”
16 And he awoke Jacob from sleep his and he said truly there [is] Yahweh in the place this and I not I realized.
Cuando Jacob despertó de su sueño, exclamó: “Verdaderamente Yahvé está en este lugar y yo no lo sabía.”
17 And he was afraid and he said how! awesome [is] the place this [is] not this that except [the] house of God and this [is] [the] gate of the heavens.
Y lleno de temor añadió: “¡Cuan venerable es este lugar!, no es sino la casa de Dios y la puerta del cielo.”
18 And he rose early Jacob in the morning and he took the stone which he had put [the] place of head his and he set up it a pillar and he poured oil on top its.
Se levantó Jacob muy de mañana, tomó la piedra que había puesto por cabezal, la erigió en monumento y derramó óleo sobre ella.
19 And he called [the] name of the place that Beth-el and but [was] Luz [the] name of the city to the former [time].
Y llamó a aquel lugar Betel —antiguamente el nombre de la ciudad era Luz—.
20 And he vowed Jacob a vow saying if he will be God with me and he will protect me on the journey this which I [am] going and he will give to me food to eat and clothing to wear.
Y Jacob hizo un voto, diciendo: “Si Dios está conmigo, y me guarda en este viaje que hago, y me da pan que comer y ropa con que vestirme,
21 And I will return in peace to [the] house of father my and he will become Yahweh for me God.
y vuelvo yo en paz a la casa de mi padre, entonces será Yahvé mi Dios.
22 And the stone this which I have set up a pillar it will be [the] house of God and all that you will give to me fully I will tithe it to you.
Esta piedra que he erigido en monumento será casa de Dios; y de todo lo que me dieres, te daré el diezmo sin falta.”
