Genesis 28
1 Isaac el solalma Jacob, paingul ac fahk nu sel, “Nimet kom payuk sin mutan Canaan inge.
So Isaac called for Jacob and blessed him. “Do not take a wife from the Canaanite women,” he commanded.
2 A kom som nu Mesopotamia, nu yen sel Bethuel, papa matu tomom, ac payukyak sin sie mutan we ah, siena sin acn natul Laban, su ma lin nina kiom.
“Go at once to Paddan-aram, to the house of your mother’s father Bethuel, and take a wife from among the daughters of Laban, your mother’s brother.
3 God Kulana Elan akinsewowoye payuk lom, ac sot in pus tulik nutum, tuh kom fah papa tumun mutunfacl puspis!
May God Almighty bless you and make you fruitful and multiply you, so that you may become a company of peoples.
4 Lela Elan akinsewowoye kom ac fwilin tulik nutum oana ke El tuh akinsewowoyal Abraham, tuh facl se su kom muta we inge, su God El sang lal Abraham, in fah ma lom!”
And may He give the blessing of Abraham to you and your descendants, so that you may possess the land where you dwell as a foreigner, the land God gave to Abraham.”
5 Isaac el supwalla Jacob nu Mesopotamia, nu yorol Laban, wen natul Bethuel mwet Aram, su ma lel Rebecca, nina kial Jacob ac Esau.
So Isaac sent Jacob to Paddan-aram, to Laban son of Bethuel the Aramean, the brother of Rebekah, who was the mother of Jacob and Esau.
6 Esau el lohngak lah Isaac el akinsewowoyal Jacob ac supwalla nu Mesopotamia in sokak sie mutan kial we. El oayapa lohng lah ke Isaac el akinsewowoyal Jacob el sapkin nu sel elan tia payuk sin mutan Canaan.
Now Esau learned that Isaac had blessed Jacob and sent him to Paddan-aram to take a wife there, commanding him, “Do not marry a Canaanite woman,”
7 El lohngak pac lah Jacob el akos na papa tumal ac nina kial, ac som nu Mesopotamia.
and that Jacob had obeyed his father and mother and gone to Paddan-aram.
8 Ouinge Esau el akilen lah Isaac, papa tumal, el tia lungse elan payuk nu sin mutan Canaan.
And seeing that his father Isaac disapproved of the Canaanite women,
9 Ke ma inge Esau el som nu yorol Ishmael, wen natul Abraham, ac payukyak sel Mahalath, sie acn natul Ishmael, su ma loul Nebaioth.
Esau went to Ishmael and married Mahalath, the sister of Nebaioth and daughter of Abraham’s son Ishmael, in addition to the wives he already had.
10 Jacob el fahsr liki acn Beersheba in som nu Haran.
Meanwhile Jacob left Beersheba and set out for Haran.
11 Ke faht uh tili el sun sie acn mutal ac aktuktuk we. Ke el ona in motul, el eloangak eot se.
On reaching a certain place, he spent the night there because the sun had set. And taking one of the stones from that place, he put it under his head and lay down to sleep.
12 El mweme mu el liye nien fan se tuyak faclu yak sun acn inkusrao, ac lipufan uh fani ac fanyak fac.
And Jacob had a dream about a ladder that rested on the earth with its top reaching up to heaven, and God’s angels were going up and down the ladder.
13 Ac LEUM GOD El tu siskal ac fahk, “Nga LEUM GOD lal Abraham ac Isaac. Nga fah sot nu sum, ac fwilin tulik nutum, acn se ma kom oan we inge.
And there at the top the LORD was standing and saying, “I am the LORD, the God of your father Abraham and the God of Isaac. I will give you and your descendants the land on which you now lie.
14 Elos ac fah mau arulana pukanten oana puk fin faclu. Elos ac fah akyokye facl selos nu kutulap, roto, epang ac eir. Ac nga fah akinsewowoye mutunfacl nukewa keim ac fwilin tulik nutum.
Your descendants will be like the dust of the earth, and you will spread out to the west and east and north and south. All the families of the earth will be blessed through you and your offspring.
15 Esam, nga ac fah wi kom ac langoekom yen nukewa kom som nu we, ac nga ac fah folokinkomme nu fin acn se inge. Nga ac tiana fahsr liki kom nwe ke na nga orala ma nukewa nga wuleot nu sum.”
Look, I am with you, and I will watch over you wherever you go, and I will bring you back to this land. For I will not leave you until I have done what I have promised you.”
16 Jacob el asmakla ac fahk, “Pwaye na pwaye, LEUM GOD El oasr in acn se inge a nga tiana etu!”
When Jacob woke up, he thought, “Surely the LORD is in this place, and I was unaware of it.”
17 El sangeng ac fahk, “Acn na oal se pa inge! Tia ana acn, a ma sin God. Ku pacna in pa inge mutunpot nu in kusrao.”
And he was afraid and said, “How awesome is this place! This is none other than the house of God; this is the gate of heaven!”
18 Jacob el toangna tukakek ke lotu tok ah, eis eot se ma el ilung ah, ac tulokunak tuh in sie mwe esmakin. Na el ukuiya oil in olive nu fac, in kisakunang nu sin God.
Early the next morning, Jacob took the stone that he had placed under his head, and he set it up as a pillar. He poured oil on top of it,
19 El sang inen acn sac Bethel. (Siti srisrik sac pangpang Luz meet.)
and he called that place Bethel, though previously the city had been named Luz.
20 Na Jacob el orala wulela se nu sin LEUM GOD, ac fahk ouinge: “Kom fin wiyu ac karinginyu in fahsr se luk inge, ac kasreyu ke mwe mongo ac nuknuk,
Then Jacob made a vow, saying, “If God will be with me and watch over me on this journey, and if He will provide me with food to eat and clothes to wear,
21 ac nga fin moul folokla sun acn sin papa tumuk, na kom fah God luk.
so that I may return safely to my father’s house, then the LORD will be my God.
22 Eot in esmakin se su nga oakiya inge ac fah acn in alu nu sum, ac nga fah asot nu sum sie tafu singoul ke ma nukewa ma kom ase nu sik.”
And this stone I have set up as a pillar will be God’s house, and of all that You give me I will surely give You a tenth.”
