< Jenèz 35 >

1 Bondye di Jakòb: -Leve non, moute al Betèl, epi rete la. Bati yon lotèl la pou Bondye ki te parèt devan ou lan, lè ou t'ap kouri pou Ezaou, frè ou la.
And God said to Jacob, Arise, go up to Beth-el, and dwell there: and make there an altar to God, who appeared to thee when thou fleddest from the face of Esau thy brother.
2 Se konsa Jakòb rele fanmi l' yo ansanm ak tout lòt moun ki avè l' yo. li di yo: -Pran tout lòt bondye etranje n'ap sèvi yo, voye yo jete. Mete nou nan kondisyon pou sèvi Bondye. Mete rad nèt sou nou.
Then Jacob said to his household, and to all that [were] with him, Put away the strange gods that [are] among you, and be clean, and change your garments:
3 Nou pral kite kote nou ye a, nou pral Betèl, kote mwen pral bati yon lotèl pou Bondye ki te reponn lapriyè m' lè m' te anba tray la, pou Bondye ki te la avèk mwen kote m' pase nan vwayaj mwen te fè a.
And let us arise, and go up to Beth-el; and I will make there an altar to God, who answered me in the day of my distress, and was with me in the way which I went.
4 Se konsa yo renmèt Jakòb tout bondye etranje yo te gen nan men yo ansanm ak tout zanno yo te gen nan zòrèy yo. Jakòb antere tout sa anba pye bwadchenn ki te toupre lavil Sichèm lan.
And they gave to Jacob all the strange gods which [were] in their hand, and [the] ear-rings which [were] in their ears; and Jacob hid them under the oak which [was] by Shechem.
5 Apre sa, yo pati. tout moun ki te rete nan zòn lan te vin pè Bondye anpil. Yo yonn pa leve al rapouswiv pitit Jakòb yo.
And they journeyed: and the terror of God was on the cities that [were] round them, and they did not pursue after the sons of Jacob.
6 Jakòb rive ansanm ak tout moun ki te avè l' yo lavil Louz, nan peyi Kanaran. Se lavil sa a yo rele Betèl tou.
So Jacob came to Luz, which [is] in the land of Canaan (that is Beth-el) he and all the people that [were] with him.
7 Li bati yon lotèl la, li rele kote a Betèl, paske se la Bondye te parèt devan li lè li t'ap kouri pou frè l' la.
And he erected there an altar, and called the place El-beth-el; because there God appeared to him, when he fled from the face of his brother.
8 Lè sa a, Debora, bòn Rebeka a, mouri. Yo antere l' pi ba Betèl, anba pye bwadchenn lan. Se konsa yo rele pye bwadchenn lan: chenn dlo nan je a.
But Deborah, Rebekah's nurse, died, and she was buried beneath Beth-el, under an oak: and the name of it was called Allon-bachuth.
9 Lè Jakòb te tounen soti Mezopotami, Bondye parèt ankò devan li, li beni li.
And God appeared to Jacob again when he came out of Padan-aram; and blessed him.
10 Bondye di l' konsa: -Yo rele ou Jakòb pa sa? Men, yo p'ap rele ou Jakòb ankò, y'a rele ou Izrayèl. Depi lè sa a, se Izrayèl yo rele l' vre.
And God said to him, Thy name [is] Jacob: thy name shall not be called any more Jacob, but Israel shall be thy name; and he called his name Israel.
11 Bondye di l' ankò: -Se mwen menm Bondye ki gen tout pouvwa a. W'ap gen anpil pitit ak pitit pitit. Gen ladan yo k'ap wa. W'ap si tèlman gen anpil pitit pitit, y'a tounen yon kantite nasyon.
And God said to him, I [am] God Almighty: be fruitful and multiply; a nation and a multitude of nations shall spring from thee, and kings shall come out of thy loins.
12 Peyi mwen te bay Abraram ak Izarak la, m'ap ba ou li tou. Apre sa, m'ap bay pitit pitit ou yo li.
And the land which I gave to Abraham and Isaac, to thee I will give it, and to thy seed after thee will I give the land.
13 Apre sa, Bondye kite l' kote li t'ap pale ak li a, li moute nan syèl.
And God went up from him, in the place where he talked with him.
14 Jakòb pran yon gwo wòch, li plante l' pou l' make kote Bondye te pale avèk li a. Li pran diven, li wouze wòch la, apre sa li vide lwil sou li.
And Jacob set up a pillar in the place where he talked with him, [even] a pillar of stone: and he poured a drink-offering thereon, and he poured oil thereon.
15 Li rele kote Bondye te pale avè l' la Betèl.
And Jacob called the name of the place where God spoke with him, Beth-el.
16 Apre sa, yo pati yo kite Betèl. Yo pa t' twò lwen rive lavil Efrata lè lè a te rive pou Rachèl akouche. Li t'ap soufri anpil.
And they journeyed from Beth-el; and there was but a little way to come to Ephrath: and Rachel travailed, and she had hard labor.
17 Lè doulè a te pi rèd, fanmchay la di l': -Ou pa bezwen pè. Ou fè yon pitit gason ankò.
And it came to pass when she was in hard labor, that the midwife said to her, Fear not; thou shalt have this son also.
18 Rachèl tapral mouri, li t'ap rann dènye souf li lè li rele pitit la Bennoni. Men papa a rele l' Benjamen.
And it came to pass as her soul was in departing (for she died) that she called his name Ben-oni: but his father called him Benjamin.
19 Rachèl mouri, yo antere l' sou wout lavil Efrata. Se lavil sa a yo rele Betleyèm lan tou.
And Rachel died, and was buried in the way to Ephrath, which [is] Beth-lehem.
20 Jakòb make tonm lan ak yon gwo wòch: yo rele l' Moniman tonm Rachèl la. Wòch la la jouk jòdi a.
And Jacob set a pillar on her grave: that [is] the pillar of Rachel's grave to this day.
21 Apre sa, Izrayèl pati, li al moute tant li lòt bò Migdaledè.
And Israel journeyed, and spread his tent beyond the tower of Edar.
22 Antan Jakòb t'ap viv nan peyi sa a, Woubenn al kouche ak Bila, yonn nan fanm papa l' yo. Izrayèl vin konn sa, li te fache anpil. Jakòb te gen douz pitit gason.
And it came to pass, when Israel dwelt in that land, that Reuben went and lay with Bilhah his father's concubine: and Israel heard [it]. Now the sons of Jacob were twelve:
23 Men non pitit Leya te fè pou li yo: Woubenn, premye pitit gason l' lan, Simeyon, Levi, Jida, Isaka ak Zabilon.
The sons of Leah; Reuben, Jacob's first-born, and Simeon, and Levi, and Judah, and Issachar, and Zebulun:
24 Men non pitit Rachèl te fè pou li yo: Jozèf ak Benjamen.
The sons of Rachel; Joseph, and Benjamin:
25 Men non pitit Bila, sèvant Rachèl la, te fè pou li yo: Dann ak Nèftali.
And the sons of Bilhah, Rachel's handmaid; Dan, and Naphtali:
26 Men non pitit Zilpa, sèvant Leya a, te fè pou li yo: Gad ak Asè. Se tout pitit gason sa yo Jakòb te genyen antan li te nan peyi Mezopotami.
And the sons of Zilpah, Leah's handmaid; Gad, and Asher. These [are] the sons of Jacob, who were born to him in Padan-aram.
27 Jakòb al wè papa l' Izarak, nan Manmre (yo rele kote sa a Kija aba tou, ou ankò Ebwon). Se la Abraram ak Izarak te pase tout lavi yo.
And Jacob came to Isaac his father to Mamre, to the city of Arbah (which [is] Hebron) where Abraham and Isaac sojourned.
28 Izarak te gen sankatreven lanne sou tèt li
And the days of Isaac were a hundred and eighty years.
29 lè li mouri. Li te fin granmoun, li te wè kont jou li lè l' al jwenn moun li yo ki te mouri deja. Ezaou ak Jakòb, pitit gason l' yo, antere li.
And Isaac expired and died, and was gathered to his people, [being] old and full of days; and his sons Esau and Jacob buried him.
