Genesis 35
1 God said to Jacob, “Arise, go up to Bethel, and live there. Make there an altar to God, who appeared to you when you fled from the face of Esau your brother.”
God El fahk nu sel Jacob, “Som nu Bethel ingena ac muta we. Musaela sie loang ah luk we, nga God se su tuh sikwot nu sum pacl se kom tuh kaing lukel Esau, tamulel lom.”
2 Then Jacob said to his household, and to all who were with him, “Put away the foreign gods that are amongst you, purify yourselves, and change your garments.
Ouinge Jacob el fahk nu sin sou lal ac mwet nukewa ma welul, “Sisla god saya ma oan yuruwos an. Aknasnasyekowosla, ac nokomang nuknuk nasnas tuh kowos in nasnas ye mutun God.
3 Let’s arise, and go up to Bethel. I will make there an altar to God, who answered me in the day of my distress, and was with me on the way which I went.”
Kut ac som liki acn se inge nu Bethel, yen su nga ac fah musaela sie loang nu sin God se su tuh kasreyu in pacl in ongoiya nu sik, ac su nuna wiyu na yen nukewa nga fahsr nu we.”
4 They gave to Jacob all the foreign gods which were in their hands, and the rings which were in their ears; and Jacob hid them under the oak which was by Shechem.
Ouinge elos sang nu sel Jacob god sac nukewa ma oasr yorolos, ac oayapa yaring ma elos orekmakin. El pikinya ma inge ye sak oak soko apkuran nu Shechem.
5 They travelled, and a terror of God was on the cities that were around them, and they didn’t pursue the sons of Jacob.
Ke Jacob ac wen natul nukewa mukuiyak in som, mwet nukewa su muta in siti srisrik ma apkuran elos arulana sangeng, ac tiana ukwalos.
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.
Jacob el tuku wi mwet lal nukewa nu Luz, su pangpang Bethel in pacl inge, in acn Canaan.
7 He built an altar there, and called the place El Beth El; because there God was revealed to him, when he fled from the face of his brother.
El etoak loang se we ac sang Inen God lun Bethel nu kac, mweyen God El tuh sifacna sikyang nu sel we ke pacl se el tuh kaingkin tamulel lal ah.
8 Deborah, Rebekah’s nurse, died, and she was buried below Bethel under the oak; and its name was called Allon Bacuth.
Deborah, mutan tutaf lal Rebecca, el misa ac pukpuki ye sak oak soko layen eir in acn Bethel. Ouinge acn sac pangpang “Sak Oak in Tung.”
9 God appeared to Jacob again, when he came from Paddan Aram, and blessed him.
Ke pacl se Jacob el foloko liki acn Mesopotamia, God El sifilpa sikyang nu sel ac akinsewowoyal.
10 God said to him, “Your name is Jacob. Your name shall not be Jacob any more, but your name will be Israel.” He named him Israel.
God El fahk nu sel, “Inem pa Jacob, tusruktu ingela inem ac fah pangpang Israel.” Ouinge God El sang inel Israel.
11 God said to him, “I am God Almighty. Be fruitful and multiply. A nation and a company of nations will be from you, and kings will come out of your body.
Ac God El fahk nu sel, “Nga God Kulana. Lela tuh in oasr tulik puspis nutum. Mutunfacl puspis ac fah tuku ke fwilin tulik nutum, ac kom ac fah papa tumun tokosra puspis.
12 The land which I gave to Abraham and Isaac, I will give it to you, and to your offspring after you I will give the land.”
Nga ac sot nu sum acn ma nga tuh sang nu sel Abraham ac nu sel Isaac, ac nga fah oayapa sang nu sin fwilin tulik nutum tok.”
13 God went up from him in the place where he spoke with him.
Na God El som lukel.
14 Jacob set up a pillar in the place where he spoke with him, a pillar of stone. He poured out a drink offering on it, and poured oil on it.
Jacob el tulokunak eot in esmakin se in acn se ma God El kaskas nu sel we inge, ac akmutalyela ke el ukuiya wain ac oil in olive nu fac.
15 Jacob called the name of the place where God spoke with him “Bethel”.
Ac el sang inen acn sac Bethel.
16 They travelled from Bethel. There was still some distance to come to Ephrath, and Rachel travailed. She had hard labour.
Jacob ac sou lal som liki acn Bethel, ac ke elos srakna loes liki acn Ephrath, na sun pacl in isus lal Rachel, ac arulana upa nu sel in isus.
17 When she was in hard labour, the midwife said to her, “Don’t be afraid, for now you will have another son.”
Ke pacl se ma upala na pwaye ngal in isus lal, mutan akisus lal el akkeyal ac fahk, “Rachel, akkeye kom. Tulik mukul se pac pa inge.”
18 As her soul was departing (for she died), she named him Benoni, but his father named him Benjamin.
Tusruktu Rachel el munaslana in misa, ac ke el apkuran in fuhlakinla mong safla lal, el sang inen tulik se natul uh Benoni, a papa tumun tulik sac sang inel Benjamin.
19 Rachel died, and was buried on the way to Ephrath (also called Bethlehem).
Ke Rachel el misa, pukpuki el sisken inkanek nu Ephrath, su pangpang Bethlehem in pacl inge.
20 Jacob set up a pillar on her grave. The same is the Pillar of Rachel’s grave to this day.
Jacob el tulokunak eot in esmakin se we, ac srakna akilenya kulyuk lal Rachel nwe misenge.
21 Israel travelled, and spread his tent beyond the tower of Eder.
Jacob el sifilpa mukuiyak fahsr nu meet, ac ke el alukela tower Eder el tulokunak iwen aktuktuk lal we.
22 While Israel lived in that land, Reuben went and lay with Bilhah, his father’s concubine, and Israel heard of it. Now the sons of Jacob were twelve.
Ke Jacob el muta in acn sac, Reuben el ona yorol Bilhah, sie sin mutan kulansap kien papa tumal. Ke Jacob el lohngak el arulana foloyak. Oasr wen singoul luo natul Jacob.
23 The sons of Leah: Reuben (Jacob’s firstborn), Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar, and Zebulun.
Wen natul Leah pa Reuben (wen se omeet natul Jacob), Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar, ac Zebulun.
24 The sons of Rachel: Joseph and Benjamin.
Wen natul Rachel pa Joseph ac Benjamin.
25 The sons of Bilhah (Rachel’s servant): Dan and Naphtali.
Wen natul Bilhah, mutan kulansap lal Rachel, pa Dan ac Naphtali.
26 The sons of Zilpah (Leah’s servant): Gad and Asher. These are the sons of Jacob, who were born to him in Paddan Aram.
Wen natul Zilpah, mutan kulansap lal Leah, pa Gad ac Asher. Mukul natul Jacob inge nukewa isusla Mesopotamia.
27 Jacob came to Isaac his father, to Mamre, to Kiriath Arba (which is Hebron), where Abraham and Isaac lived as foreigners.
Jacob el som nu yorol Isaac, papa tumal, in acn Mamre, apkuran nu Hebron, yen Abraham ac Isaac tuh muta we.
28 The days of Isaac were one hundred and eighty years.
Isaac el moul nwe ke el sun yac siofok oalngoul,
29 Isaac gave up the spirit and died, and was gathered to his people, old and full of days. Esau and Jacob, his sons, buried him.
ac el misa ke el arulana matuoh. Ac Esau ac Jacob, wen luo natul, eltal piknilya.
