Genesis 35
1 [Some time later] God said to Jacob, “Go up to Bethel, and live there. Build an altar to worship me, God, who appeared to you when you were fleeing from your older brother Esau.”
Gode da Ya: igobema amane sia: i, “Di da Bedele sogega hedolo asili, esaloma. Amoga Nama oloda hamoma. Na da Gode amo di da Isoba: le hobealoba, Na da dima misi.”
2 So Jacob said to his household and to all the others who were with him, “Get rid of the idols you brought from Mesopotamia. Also, bathe yourselves and put on clean clothes.
Amaiba: le, Ya: igobe da ea sosogo fi amola dunu huluane ema gilisi, ilima amane sia: i, “Ga loboga hamoi ‘gode’ liligi dilia gagui amo huluane fadegale fasima. Dilia nigima: dodofelalu, abula gaheabolo salima.
3 Then we will get ready and go up to Bethel. There I will make an altar to worship God. He is the one who helped me at the time when I was greatly distressed and afraid, and he has been with me wherever I have gone.”
Ninia da amo soge yolesili, Bedele moilaiga masunu. Amoga na da Gode amo da na se nabasu ganodini fidi, amola na lalebe soge huluane E da gilisili lala, amoga na da oloda hamomu.
4 So they gave to Jacob all the idols that they had brought, and all their earrings. Jacob buried them in the ground under the big oak tree that was near Shechem [town].
Amaiba: le, ilia da loboga hamoi ‘gode’ liligi amola gegagulu ilia ge ganodini sali, amo huluane duga: le, Ya: igobema i. Ya: igobe da amo liligi huluane ‘ouge’ ifa Siegeme soge ganodini amo haguduga uli dogone sali.
5 As they prepared to leave there, God caused the people who lived in the cities around them to be extremely afraid of Jacob’s family [PRS], so that they did not pursue and attack them.
Amalalu, ilia da logoga asili, moilai dunu huluane gadenene esalu da beda: i bagade ba: i. Ilia da beda: iba: le, Ya: igobe ea fi hame se bobogei.
6 Jacob and all those who were with him came to Luz, which is now called Bethel, in the Canaan region.
Ya: igobe amola ea fi huluane da Luse (wali ea dio da Bedele), Ga: ina: ne soge ganodini amoga doaga: i.
7 There he built an altar. He named the place El-Bethel, [which means ‘God of Bethel]’, because it was there that God revealed himself to Jacob when he was fleeing from his older brother Esau.
Amoga e da oloda hamone amola amo soge dio eno asuli amo Ele Bedele. Bai amoga e da ea olaba: le hobeale ahoanoba, Gode da ema misi.
8 Deborah, who had taken care of Isaac’s wife Rebekah when Rebekah was a small girl, was now very old. She died and was buried under an oak tree south of Bethel. So they named that place Allon-Bacuth, [which means ‘oak of weeping’].
Lebega ea hawa: hamosu uda amo Debola da amoga bogoi. Ea da: i hodo ilia da ‘ouge’ ifa Bedele sogebi amoga ga (south) dialu, amo hagudu uli dogone sali. Amaiba: le, amo ifaga ilia da ‘Disu Ouge Ifa’ dio asuli.
9 After Jacob and his family returned from Paddan-Aram/Mesopotamia, while they were still at Bethel, God appeared to Jacob again and blessed him.
Ya: igobe da Mesoubouda: imia yolesili, bu Ga: ina: ne sogega bu misini, Gode da ema bu misini, ema hahawane dogolegele fidima: ne sia: i.
10 God said to him again, “Your name will no longer be Jacob. It will be Israel.” So Jacob was then called ‘Israel’.
Gode da ema amane sia: i, “Dia dio da Ya: igobe, be amo fa: no dia dio da Isala: ili.” Amaiba: le, Gode da ema Isala: ili dio asuli.
11 Then God said to him, “I am God Almighty. Produce many children. Your descendants will become many nations, and some of your descendants will be kings.
Amola Gode da ema amane sia: i, “Na da Gode Bagadedafa! Di mano bagohame lalelegema! Digaga fi da fifi asi gala bagohame ba: mu, amola di da hina bagade dunu ilima aowa ba: mu.
12 The land that I promised to give to [your grandfather] Abraham and [your father] Isaac, I will give to you. I will also give it to your descendants.”
Soge Na da A: ibalaha: me amola Aisage elama i dagoi, amo na da dima imunu. Amola fa: no digaga fibi ilima imunu.”
13 When God finished talking there with Jacob, he left him.
Amalalu, Gode da yolesili asi.
14 Jacob set up a large stone at the place where God had talked with him. He poured some wine and some [olive] oil on it to dedicate it to God.
Amogawi, Gode da amo sogebiga ema sia: musa: misiba: le, Ya: igobe da wanonesisu gele bugili, amo Godema modale ligiagama: ne, amo da: iya waini amola olife susuligi sogadigi.
15 Jacob named that place Bethel, [which means ‘house of God]’, because God had spoken to him there.
E da amo sogebiga dio asuli, amo Bedele.
16 Jacob and his family left Bethel and traveled south toward Ephrath [town]. When they were still some distance from Ephrath, Rachel began to have severe childbirth pains.
Ya: igobe amola ea sosogo fi da Bedele yolesili, logoga ahoanoba, Efala: de amoga mae doaga: le, La: isele da mano lamusa: se nabi. E da mano lalelegemu logebeba: le, gasa bagade ba: i.
17 When her pain was the most severe, the (midwife/woman who helped her to give birth) said to Rachel, “Do not be afraid, because now you have given birth to another son!”
Mano lamusa: se bagade nabaloba, mano lasu fidisu uda da ema amane sia: i, “La: isele! Mae beda: ma! Dunu mano da lalelegei dagoi.
18 But she was dying, and with her last breath she said, “Name him Benoni,” [which means ‘son of my sorrow]’, but his father named him Benjamin, [which means ‘son of my right hand]’.
Be La: isele da bogolalu, amola mifo laha da gadenene dagoloba, ea manoma dio asuli amo Benoni. Be Ya: igobe da ema Bediamini dio asuli.
19 After Rachel died, she was buried alongside the road to Ephrath, which is [now called] Bethlehem.
La: isele da bogoi. Ilia da ea da: i hodo Efala: de moilai logo ahoasu dafulili uli dogoi. Amo moilai ea dio wali da Bedeleheme.
20 Jacob set up a large stone over her grave, and it is still there, showing where Rachel’s grave is.
Ya: igobe da dawa: ma: ne gele wanonesisu amoga bugi, amola wali amo da La: isele ea uli dogoi amoga dawa: ma: ne diala.
21 Jacob, whose new name was Israel, continued traveling with his family, and he set up his tents on the south side of the watchtower at Eder [town].
Ya: igobe da asili, diasu gagagula heda: i, ea dio Ede amo baligili, ea abula diasu gagui.
22 While they were living in that area, Jacob’s son Reuben had sex [EUP] with Bilhah, one of his father’s (concubines/female slaves whom he had taken as a secondary wife). Someone told Jacob about it, and it made him very angry. (I will now give you/Here is) a list of Jacob’s twelve sons.
Ya: igobe da amo soge ganodini esaloba, ea mano Liubene da misini, Ya: igobe ea gidesedagi uda amo Biliha ema gilisili golai. Ya: igobe da amo hou nababeba: le, mi hanai galu. Ya: igobe ea dunu mano da fagoyale galu.
23 The sons of Leah were Reuben, who was Jacob’s oldest son, then Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar and Zebulon.
Lia ea dunu manolali da Liubene (Ya: igobe ea magobo mano) Simione, Lifai, Yuda, Isiga amola Sebiulane.
24 The sons of Rachel were Joseph and Benjamin.
La: isele ea dunu manola da Yousefe amola Bediamini.
25 The sons of Rachel’s female slave Bilhah were Dan and Naphtali.
La: isele ea hawa: hamosu uda Biliha amo ea dunu manola da Da: ne amola Na: badalai.
26 The sons of Leah’s female slave Zilpah were Gad and Asher. All those sons of Jacob, except Benjamin, were born while he was living in Paddan-Aram/Mesopotamia.
Lia ea hawa: hamosu uda Siliba amo ea dunu manola da Ga: de amola A: sie. Amo dunu mano ilia da Mesoubouda: imia sogega lalelegei.
27 Jacob had returned back home to see his father Isaac at Mamre, which is also named Kiriath-Arba, and which is now named Hebron. Isaac’s father Abraham had also lived there.
Aisage da Ma: melei amo Hibalone moilaiga gadenene esalu. Amoga Ya: igobe da asi.
28 Isaac lived until he was 180 years old.
Aisage da lalelegele, ode 180 esalu.
29 He was very old when he died, joining his ancestors who had died previously. His sons Esau and Jacob buried his body.
E da amo ode bagohame lai dagoloba, bogoi. Ea mano Iso amola Ya: igobe da ea da: i hodo uli dogone sali.
