< Genesis 35 >

1 And God saith unto Jacob, 'Rise, go up to Bethel, and dwell there, and make there an altar to God, who appeared unto thee in thy fleeing from the face of Esau thy brother.'
Thuutha wa ũguo Ngai akĩĩra Jakubu atĩrĩ, “Ambata, ũthiĩ Betheli ũgatũũre kuo, na wakĩre Ngai kĩgongona kuo, o we ũrĩa wakuumĩrĩire rĩrĩa woragĩra mũrũ wa nyũkwa Esaũ.”
2 And Jacob saith unto his household, and unto all who [are] with him, 'Turn aside the gods of the stranger which [are] in your midst, and cleanse yourselves, and change your garments;
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Jakubu akĩĩra andũ a nyũmba yake, na arĩa othe maarĩ nao, atĩrĩ, “Eheriai ngai cia mĩhianano iria mũrĩ nacio, na mwĩtherie inyuĩ ene, na mwĩkĩre nguo ingĩ.
3 and we rise, and go up to Bethel, and I make there an altar to God, who is answering me in the day of my distress, and is with me in the way that I have gone.'
Mũcooke mũũkĩre, mũreke tũthiĩ twambate Betheli, ngaakĩre Ngai kĩgongona kuo, ũrĩa wanjĩtĩkire mũthenya ũrĩa ndaarĩ thĩĩna-inĩ, na ũrĩa ũkoretwo na niĩ kũrĩa guothe ndanathiĩ.”
4 And they give unto Jacob all the gods of the stranger that [are] in their hand, and the rings that [are] in their ears, and Jacob hideth them under the oak which [is] by Shechem;
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio makĩnengera Jakubu ngai cia mĩhianano iria maarĩ nacio, na irengeeri iria ciarĩ matũ mao, nake Jakubu agĩcithika gĩtina-inĩ kĩa mũgandi kũu Shekemu.
5 and they journey, and the terror of God is on the cities which [are] round about them, and they have not pursued after the sons of Jacob.
Nao makiumagara, magĩĩthiĩra, namo matũũra marĩa maamathiũrũrũkĩirie makĩnyiitwo nĩ guoya wa Ngai, nĩ ũndũ ũcio gũtirĩ o na ũmwe wamaingatithirie.
6 And Jacob cometh in to Luz which [is] in the land of Canaan (it [is] Bethel), he and all the people who [are] with him,
Jakubu na andũ arĩa othe aarĩ nao magĩkinya Luzu (na nĩkuo Betheli), bũrũri-inĩ wa Kaanani.
7 and he buildeth there an altar, and proclaimeth at the place the God of Bethel: for there had God been revealed unto him, in his fleeing from the face of his brother.
Agĩaka kĩgongona kũu, na agĩĩta handũ hau Eli-Betheli, tondũ hau nĩho Ngai aamwĩguũrĩirie rĩrĩa ooragĩra mũrũ wa nyina.
8 And Deborah, Rebekah's nurse, dieth, and she is buried at the lower part of Bethel, under the oak, and he calleth its name 'Oak of weeping.'
Nake Debora mũreri wa Rebeka agĩkua na agĩthikwo gĩtina-inĩ kĩa mũgandi mũhuro wa Betheli. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio handũ hau hagĩĩtwo Aloni-Bakuthu.
9 And God appeareth unto Jacob again, in his coming from Padan-Aram, and blesseth him;
Thuutha wa Jakubu gũcooka kuuma Padani-Aramu, Ngai akĩmuumĩrĩra rĩngĩ na akĩmũrathima.
10 and God saith to him, 'Thy name [is] Jacob: thy name is no more called Jacob, but Israel is thy name;' and He calleth his name Israel.
Ngai akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Rĩĩtwa rĩaku nĩ Jakubu, no ndũgũcooka gwĩtwo Jakubu rĩngĩ; ũrĩĩtagwo Isiraeli.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio akĩmwĩta Isiraeli.
11 And God saith to him, 'I [am] God Almighty; be fruitful and multiply, a nation and an assembly of nations is from thee, and kings from thy loins go out;
Nake Ngai akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Niĩ nĩ niĩ Ngai Mwene-Hinya-Wothe; ciaranai na mũingĩhe. Rũrĩrĩ na gĩkundi kĩa ndũrĩrĩ nĩikoima harĩwe, na athamaki nĩmakoima mwĩrĩ-inĩ waku.
12 and the land which I have given to Abraham and to Isaac — to thee I give it, yea to thy seed after thee I give the land.'
Bũrũri ũrĩa niĩ ndaheire Iburahĩmu na Isaaka, o nawe nĩngakũhe guo, na nĩngaheana bũrũri ũyũ kũrĩ njiaro ciaku iria igooka thuutha waku.”
13 And God goeth up from him, in the place where He hath spoken with him.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo Ngai akĩambata akĩmweherera kuuma handũ hau aamwaragĩria.
14 And Jacob setteth up a standing pillar in the place where He hath spoken with him, a standing pillar of stone, and he poureth on it an oblation, and he poureth on it oil;
Jakubu akĩhaanda gĩtugĩ kĩa ihiga handũ hau Ngai aarĩtie nake, agĩgĩitĩrĩria ndibei; agĩcooka agĩgĩitĩrĩria maguta.
15 and Jacob calleth the name of the place where God spake with him Bethel.
Jakubu agĩĩta handũ hau Ngai aamwarĩirie Betheli.
16 And they journey from Bethel, and there is yet a kibrath of land before entering Ephratha, and Rachel beareth, and is sharply pained in her bearing;
Thuutha ũcio Jakubu na andũ ake makiuma Betheli magĩthiĩ na mbere na rũgendo. Na matigairie hanini makinye Efiratha-rĩ, Rakeli akĩambĩrĩria kũrũmwo na agĩkorwo arĩ na thĩĩna mũingĩ mũno.
17 and it cometh to pass, in her being sharply pained in her bearing, that the midwife saith to her, 'Fear not, for this also [is] a son for thee.'
Na tondũ aarĩ na thĩĩna mũingĩ mũno wa gũciara, mũmũciarithia akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Tiga gwĩtigĩra, tondũ ũrĩ na kahĩĩ kangĩ.”
18 And it cometh to pass in the going out of her soul (for she died), that she calleth his name Ben-Oni; and his father called him Benjamin;
Na atanatuĩkana, tondũ nĩ gũkua aakuaga, agĩtua kahĩĩ kau Beni-Oni. No ithe agĩgatua Benjamini.
19 and Rachel dieth, and is buried in the way to Ephratha, which [is] Bethlehem,
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Rakeli agĩkua na agĩthikwo mũkĩra-inĩ wa njĩra ya gũthiĩ Efiratha (na nokuo Bethilehemu.)
20 and Jacob setteth up a standing pillar over her grave; which [is] the standing pillar of Rachel's grave unto this day.
Jakubu akĩhaanda gĩtugĩ igũrũ rĩa mbĩrĩra yake, na nginya ũmũthĩ ũyũ gĩtugĩ kĩu nĩkĩo kĩonanagia mbĩrĩra ya Rakeli.
21 And Israel journeyeth, and stretcheth out his tent beyond the tower of Edar;
Isiraeli agĩthiĩ o na mbere na rũgendo na akĩamba hema yake mwena ũrĩa ũngĩ wa Migidali-Ederi.
22 and it cometh to pass in Israel's dwelling in that land, that Reuben goeth, and lieth with Bilhah his father's concubine; and Israel heareth.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo Isiraeli aatũũraga bũrũri ũcio-rĩ, Rubeni agĩthiĩ, agĩkoma na Biliha, thuriya ya ithe, nake Isiraeli akĩigua ũhoro ũcio. Jakubu aarĩ na ariũ ikũmi na eerĩ:
23 And the sons of Jacob are twelve. Sons of Leah: Jacob's first-born Reuben, and Simeon, and Levi, and Judah, and Issachar, and Zebulun.
Ariũ a Lea maarĩ: Rubeni irigithathi rĩa Jakubu, na Simeoni, na Lawi, na Juda, na Isakaru, na Zebuluni.
24 Sons of Rachel: Joseph and Benjamin.
Ariũ a Rakeli maarĩ: Jusufu na Benjamini.
25 And sons of Bilhah, Rachel's maid-servant: Dan and Naphtali.
Ariũ a Biliha ndungata ya mũirĩtu ya Rakeli maarĩ: Dani na Nafitali.
26 And sons of Zilpah, Leah's maid-servant: Gad and Asher. These [are] sons of Jacob, who have been born to him in Padan-Aram.
Ariũ a Zilipa ndungata ya mũirĩtu ya Lea maarĩ: Gadi na Asheri. Acio nĩo maarĩ ariũ a Jakubu, arĩa aaciarĩirwo arĩ kũu Padani-Aramu.
27 And Jacob cometh unto Isaac his father, at Mamre, the city of Arba (which [is] Hebron), where Abraham and Isaac have sojourned.
Na Jakubu agĩkinya mũciĩ kũrĩ ithe Isaaka kũu Mamure, hakuhĩ na Kiriathu-Ariba (nĩkuo Hebironi), kũrĩa Iburahĩmu na Isaaka maatũũrĩte.
28 And the days of Isaac are a hundred and eighty years,
Isaaka aatũũrire muoyo mĩaka igana na mĩrongo ĩnana.
29 and Isaac expireth, and dieth, and is gathered unto his people, aged and satisfied with days; and bury him do Esau and Jacob his sons.
Agĩcooka agĩtuĩkana agĩkua na agĩthikwo hamwe na andũ ao arĩa maakuĩte, arĩ mũkũrũ na arĩ na mĩaka mĩingĩ. Nao ariũ ake Esaũ na Jakubu makĩmũthika.
