1 Sa’an nan Allah ya ce wa Yaƙub, “Haura zuwa Betel ka yi zama a can, ka kuma gina bagade a can wa Allah wanda ya bayyana gare ka sa’ad da kake gudu daga ɗan’uwanka Isuwa.”
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.”
2 Saboda haka Yaƙub ya ce wa gidansa da kuma dukan waɗanda suke tare da shi, “Ku zubar da baƙin allolin da kuke da su, ku tsarkake kanku, ku kuma canja tufafinku.
Then Jacob said to his household, and to all who were with him, “Put away the foreign gods that are among you, purify yourselves, and change your garments.
3 Sa’an nan ku zo, mu haura zuwa Betel, inda zan gina bagade wa Allah wanda ya amsa mini a ranar wahalata, wanda kuma ya kasance tare da ni a dukan inda na tafi.”
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.”
4 Saboda haka suka ba Yaƙub dukan baƙin allolin da suke da su, da zoban da suke kunnuwansu, sai Yaƙub ya binne su a ƙarƙashin itacen oak a Shekem.
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.
5 Sa’an nan suka kama hanya, tsoron Allah kuwa ya kama dukan garuruwan da suke kewayensu har babu wanda ya iya bin su.
They traveled, and a terror of God was on the cities that were around them, and they didn’t pursue the sons of Jacob.
6 Yaƙub da dukan mutanen da suke tare da shi suka zo Luz (wato, Betel) a ƙasar Kan’ana.
So Jacob came to Luz (that is, Bethel), which is in the land of Canaan, he and all the people who were with him.
7 A can ya gina bagade, ya kuma kira wurin El Betel, gama a can ne Allah ya bayyana kansa gare shi sa’ad da yake gudu daga ɗan’uwansa.
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.

God appeared to Jacob again, when he came from Paddan Aram, and blessed him.
10 Allah ya ce masa, “Sunanka Yaƙub ne, amma ba za a ƙara kira ka Yaƙub ba; sunanka zai zama Isra’ila.” Saboda haka ya ba shi suna Isra’ila.
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.
11 Sai Allah ya ce masa, “Ni ne Allah Maɗaukaki, ka yi ta haihuwa, ka kuma riɓaɓɓanya. Al’umma da tarin al’ummai za su fito daga gare ka, sarakuna kuma za su fito daga jikinka.
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.
12 Ƙasar da na ba wa Ibrahim da Ishaku, zan kuma ba ka, zan kuma ba da wannan ƙasa ga zuriyarka a bayanka.”
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.”
