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.”
Depois disse Deus a Jacob: Levanta-te, sobe a Bethel, e habita ali; e faz ali um altar ao Deus que te apareceu, quando fugiste diante da face de Esaú teu irmão.
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.
Então disse Jacob à sua família, e a todos os que com ele estavam: tirai os deuses estranhos, que há no meio de vós, e purificai-vos, e mudai os vossos vestidos.
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.”
E levantemo-nos, e subamos a Bethel; e ali farei um altar ao Deus que me respondeu no dia da minha angústia, e que foi comigo no caminho que tenho andado.
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].
Então deram a Jacob todos os deuses estranhos, que tinham em suas mãos, e as arrecadas que estavam em suas orelhas; e Jacob os escondeu debaixo do carvalho que está junto a Sichem.
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.
E partiram; e o terror de Deus foi sobre as cidades que estavam ao redor deles, e não seguiram após os filhos de Jacob.
6 Jacob and all those who were with him came to Luz, which is now called Bethel, in the Canaan region.
Assim chegou Jacob a Luz, que está na terra de Canaan, (esta é Bethel), ele e todo o povo que com ele havia.
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.
E edificou ali um altar, e chamou aquele lugar El-beth-el: porquanto Deus ali se lhe tinha manifestado quando fugia diante da face de seu irmão.
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’].
E morreu deborah, a ama de Rebeca, e foi sepultada ao pé de Bethel, debaixo do carvalho cujo nome chamou Allonbachuth.
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.
E apareceu Deus outra vez a Jacob, vindo de Paddan-aram, e abençoou-o.
10 God said to him again, “Your name will no longer be Jacob. It will be Israel.” So Jacob was then called ‘Israel’.
E disse-lhe Deus: O teu nome é Jacob; não se chamará mais o teu nome Jacob, mas Israel será o teu nome. E chamou o seu nome Israel.
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.
Disse-lhe mais Deus: Eu sou o Deus Todo-poderoso; frutifica e multiplica-te; uma nação e multidão de nações sairão de ti, e reis procederão dos teus lombos
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.”
E te darei a ti a terra que tenho dado a Abraão e a Isaac, e à tua semente depois de ti darei a terra.
13 When God finished talking there with Jacob, he left him.
E Deus subiu dele, do lugar onde falara com ele.
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.
E Jacob pôs uma coluna no lugar onde falara com ele, uma coluna de pedra; e derramou sobre ela uma libação, e deitou sobre ela azeite.
15 Jacob named that place Bethel, [which means ‘house of God]’, because God had spoken to him there.
E chamou Jacob o nome daquele lugar, onde Deus falara com ele, Bethel.
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.
E partiram de Bethel: e havia ainda um pequeno espaço de terra para chegar a Ephrata, e pariu Rachel, e ela teve trabalho em seu parto.
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!”
E aconteceu que, tendo ela trabalho em seu parto, lhe disse a parteira: Não temas, porque também este filho terás.
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]’.
E aconteceu que, saindo-se-lhe a alma (porque morreu), chamou o seu nome Benoni; mas seu pai o chamou Benjamin.
19 After Rachel died, she was buried alongside the road to Ephrath, which is [now called] Bethlehem.
Assim morreu Rachel; e foi sepultada no caminho de Ephrata, este é Beth-lehem.
20 Jacob set up a large stone over her grave, and it is still there, showing where Rachel’s grave is.
E Jacob pôs uma coluna sobre a sua sepultura; esta é a coluna da sepultura de Rachel até ao dia de hoje.
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].
Então partiu Israel, e estendeu a sua tenda de além de Migdal Eder.
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.
E aconteceu que, habitando Israel naquela terra, foi Ruben, e deitou-se com Bilhah, concubina de seu pai; e Israel ouviu-o. E eram doze os filhos de Jacob:
23 The sons of Leah were Reuben, who was Jacob’s oldest son, then Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar and Zebulon.
Os filhos de Leah: Ruben, o primogênito de Jacob, depois Simeão e Levi, e Judá, e Issacar e Zebulon;
24 The sons of Rachel were Joseph and Benjamin.
Os filhos de Rachel: José e Benjamin;
25 The sons of Rachel’s female slave Bilhah were Dan and Naphtali.
E os filhos de Bilhah, serva de Rachel: Dan e Naphtali;
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.
E os filhos de Zilpah, serva de Leah: Gad e Aser. Estes são os filhos de Jacob, que lhe nasceram em Paddan-aram.
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.
E Jacob veio a seu pai Isaac, a Mamre, a Kiriath-arba (que é Hebron), onde peregrinaram Abraão e Isaac.
28 Isaac lived until he was 180 years old.
E foram os dias de Isaac cento e oitenta anos.
29 He was very old when he died, joining his ancestors who had died previously. His sons Esau and Jacob buried his body.
E Isaac expirou, e morreu, e foi recolhido aos seus povos, velho e farto de dias; e Esaú e Jacob, seus filhos, o sepultaram.
