Genesis 28
1 Isaac el solalma Jacob, paingul ac fahk nu sel, “Nimet kom payuk sin mutan Canaan inge.
And Isaac calls to Jacob, and blesses him, and commands him, and says to him, “You must not take a wife of the daughters of Canaan;
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.
rise, go to Padan-Aram, to the house of your mother’s father Bethuel, and take for yourself a wife from there, from the daughters of your mother’s brother Laban;
3 God Kulana Elan akinsewowoye payuk lom, ac sot in pus tulik nutum, tuh kom fah papa tumun mutunfacl puspis!
and God Almighty bless you, and make you fruitful, and multiply you, and you have become an assembly 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 He gives to you the blessing of Abraham, to you and to your seed with you, to cause you to possess the land of your sojournings, which 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.
And Isaac sends Jacob away, and he goes to Padan-Aram, to Laban, son of Bethuel the Aramean, brother of Rebekah, 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.
And Esau sees that Isaac has blessed Jacob, and has sent him to Padan-Aram to take to himself from there a wife—in his blessing him that he lays a charge on him, saying, You must not take a wife from the daughters of Canaan—
7 El lohngak pac lah Jacob el akos na papa tumal ac nina kial, ac som nu Mesopotamia.
that Jacob listens to his father and to his mother, and goes to Padan-Aram—
8 Ouinge Esau el akilen lah Isaac, papa tumal, el tia lungse elan payuk nu sin mutan Canaan.
and Esau sees that the daughters of Canaan are evil in the eyes of his father Isaac,
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.
and Esau goes to Ishmael, and takes Mahalath, daughter of Ishmael, Abraham’s son, sister of Nebajoth, to his wives, to himself, for a wife.
10 Jacob el fahsr liki acn Beersheba in som nu Haran.
And Jacob goes out from Beer-Sheba, and goes toward Haran,
11 Ke faht uh tili el sun sie acn mutal ac aktuktuk we. Ke el ona in motul, el eloangak eot se.
and he touches at a [certain] place, and lodges there, for the sun has gone in, and he takes of the stones of the place, and makes [them] his pillows, and lies down in that place.
12 El mweme mu el liye nien fan se tuyak faclu yak sun acn inkusrao, ac lipufan uh fani ac fanyak fac.
And he dreams, and behold, a ladder set up on the earth, and its head is touching the heavens; and behold, messengers of God are going up and coming down by it;
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 behold, YHWH is standing on it, and He says, “I [am] YHWH, God of your father Abraham, and God of Isaac; the land on which you are lying, to you I give it, and to your seed;
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.
and your seed has been as the dust of the land, and you have broken forth westward, and eastward, and northward, and southward, and all families of the ground have been blessed in you and in your seed.
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.”
And behold, I [am] with you, and have kept you wherever you go, and have caused you to return to this ground; for I do not leave you until I have surely done that which I have spoken to you.”
16 Jacob el asmakla ac fahk, “Pwaye na pwaye, LEUM GOD El oasr in acn se inge a nga tiana etu!”
And Jacob awakens out of his sleep and says, “Surely YHWH is in this place, and I did not know”;
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 fears and says, “How fearful [is] this place; this is nothing but a house of God, and this a gate of the heavens.”
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.
And Jacob rises early in the morning, and takes the stone which he has made his pillows, and makes it a standing pillar, and pours oil on its top,
19 El sang inen acn sac Bethel. (Siti srisrik sac pangpang Luz meet.)
and he calls the name of that place Bethel, [house of God, ] and yet, Luz [is] the name of the city at the first.
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,
And Jacob vows a vow, saying, “Seeing God is with me, and has kept me in this way which I am going, and has given to me bread to eat, and a garment to put on—
21 ac nga fin moul folokla sun acn sin papa tumuk, na kom fah God luk.
when I have turned back in peace to the house of my father, and YHWH has become 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.”
then this stone which I have made a standing pillar is a house of God, and all that You give to me—tithing I tithe to You.”
