Genesis 35

1 interea locutus est Deus ad Iacob surge et ascende Bethel et habita ibi facque altare Deo qui apparuit tibi quando fugiebas Esau fratrem tuum

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.'

2 Iacob vero convocata omni domo sua ait abicite deos alienos qui in medio vestri sunt et mundamini ac mutate vestimenta vestra

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;

3 surgite et ascendamus in Bethel ut faciamus ibi altare Deo qui exaudivit me in die tribulationis meae et fuit socius itineris mei

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.'

4 dederunt ergo ei omnes deos alienos quos habebant et inaures quae erant in auribus eorum at ille infodit ea subter terebinthum quae est post urbem Sychem

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;

5 cumque profecti essent terror Dei invasit omnes per circuitum civitates et non sunt ausi persequi recedentes

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.

6 venit igitur Iacob Luzam quae est in terra Chanaan cognomento Bethel ipse et omnis populus cum eo

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,

7 aedificavitque ibi altare et appellavit nomen loci Domus Dei ibi enim apparuit ei Deus cum fugeret fratrem suum

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.

8 eodem tempore mortua est Debbora nutrix Rebeccae et sepulta ad radices Bethel subter quercum vocatumque est nomen loci quercus Fletus

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.'

9 apparuit autem iterum Deus Iacob postquam reversus est de Mesopotamiam Syriae benedixitque ei

And God appeareth unto Jacob again, in his coming from Padan-Aram, and blesseth him;

10 dicens non vocaberis ultra Iacob sed Israhel erit nomen tuum et appellavit eum Israhel

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.

11 dixitque ei ego Deus omnipotens cresce et multiplicare gentes et populi nationum erunt ex te reges de lumbis tuis egredientur

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;

12 terramque quam dedi Abraham et Isaac dabo tibi et semini tuo post te

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.'

13 et recessit ab eo

And God goeth up from him, in the place where He hath spoken with him.

14 ille vero erexit titulum lapideum in loco quo locutus ei fuerat Deus libans super eum libamina et effundens oleum

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;

15 vocansque nomen loci Bethel

and Jacob calleth the name of the place where God spake with him Bethel.

16 egressus inde venit verno tempore ad terram quae ducit Efratham in qua cum parturiret Rahel

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;

17 ob difficultatem partus periclitari coepit dixitque ei obsetrix noli timere quia et hunc habebis filium

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.'

18 egrediente autem anima prae dolore et inminente iam morte vocavit nomen filii sui Benoni id est filius doloris mei pater vero appellavit eum Beniamin id est filius dexterae

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;

19 mortua est ergo Rahel et sepulta in via quae ducit Efratham haec est Bethleem

and Rachel dieth, and is buried in the way to Ephratha, which [is] Bethlehem,

20 erexitque Iacob titulum super sepulchrum eius hic est titulus monumenti Rahel usque in praesentem diem

and Jacob setteth up a standing pillar over her grave; which [is] the standing pillar of Rachel's grave unto this day.

21 egressus inde fixit tabernaculum trans turrem Gregis

And Israel journeyeth, and stretcheth out his tent beyond the tower of Edar;

22 cumque habitaret in illa regione abiit Ruben et dormivit cum Bala concubina patris sui quod illum minime latuit erant autem filii Iacob duodecim

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.

23 filii Liae primogenitus Ruben et Symeon et Levi et Iudas et Isachar et Zabulon

And Jacob cometh unto Isaac his father, at Mamre, the city of Arba (which [is] Hebron), where Abraham and Isaac have sojourned.

28 et conpleti sunt dies Isaac centum octoginta annorum

And the days of Isaac are a hundred and eighty years,

29 consumptusque aetate mortuus est et adpositus populo suo senex et plenus dierum et sepelierunt eum Esau et Iacob filii sui

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.
