< Genesisy 28 >

1 Tinoka’ Ietsàk’ amy zao t’Iakòbe naho tinata’e vaho nafanto’e ami’ty hoe, Ko mañenga valy amo anak’ ampela nte-Kanàneo.
Isaac called Jacob, blessed him, and commanded him, “You must not take a wife from the Canaanite women.
2 Mionjona mb’e Padan’ arame, mb’añ’ anjomba’ i Betoele, raen-drene’o añe, vaho mañengà amo anak’ampela’ i Labàne, rahalahin-drene’oo.
Arise, go to Paddan Aram, to the house of Bethuel your mother's father, and take a wife from there, one of the daughters of Laban, your mother's brother.
3 Ehe te hitahy azo t’i El-Sadai, hampibodobodo naho hañamaro azo, soa te ho firimboñam-pifokoañe.
May God Almighty bless you, make you fruitful and multiply you, so that you may become a multitude of peoples.
4 Le hatolo’e azo naho amo tarira’o mindre ama’oo o fitahiañe i Avrahameo, handovà’o i tane maha-renetane azoy, i natolon’ Añahare amy Avrahamey.
May he give you the blessing of Abraham, to you, and to your descendants after you, that you may inherit the land where you have been living, which God gave to Abraham.”
5 Aa le nirahe’ Ietsàke mb’ eo t’Iakòbe, hañavelo mb’e Padan’ arame, mb’ amy Labàne ana’ i Betoele nte-Arame, rahalahi’ i ­Ribkae rene’ i Esave naho Iakòbe añe.
So Isaac sent Jacob away. Jacob went to Paddan Aram, to Laban son of Bethuel the Aramean, the brother of Rebekah, Jacob's and Esau's mother.
6 Ie nirendre’ i Esave te nitatae’ Ietsake t’Iakòbe naho nirahe’e mb’e Padan’ ara­me mb’eo hañenga valy boak’añe, ie nitata aze ro namantoke ty hoe, Ko mañenga amo anak’ am­pela’ i Kanàneo,
Now Esau saw that Isaac had blessed Jacob and sent him away to Paddan Aram, to take a wife from there. He also saw that Isaac had blessed him and given him a command, saying, “You must not take a wife from the women of Canaan.”
7 le nihao­ñe’ Iakòbe i nafanton-drae’e naho i rene’ey vaho nitaveañe mb’e Padan’ Arame añe,
Esau also saw that Jacob had obeyed his father and his mother, and had gone to Paddan Aram.
8 le napota’ i Esave te tsy nòn-drae’e Ietsake o anak’ ampela’ i Kanàneo;
Esau saw that the women of Canaan did not please Isaac his father.
9 aa le nimb’ am’ Iesmaèle mb’eo re nañenga i Makalate, rahavave’ i Nebaiote, ana’ Iesmaèle ana’ i Avrahame, ho tovo’ o vali’eo.
So he went to Ishmael, and took, besides the wives that he had, Mahalath the daughter of Ishmael, Abraham's son, the sister of Nebaioth, to be his wife.
10 Nienga i Beersevà t’Iakòbe naho nionjo mb’e Kharane añe.
Jacob left Beersheba and went toward Haran.
11 Ie nahaisake toetse, le nialeñe ao fa nimotake i àndroy. Nangalak’ amo vato eio re naho napo’e ho ankala’ ty añambone’e vaho nandre niròtse amy toetsey.
He came to a certain place and stayed there all night, because the sun had set. He took one of the stones in that place, put it under his head, and lay down in that place to sleep.
12 Nañinofy re, le ingo ty fanongà nitroatse an-tane eo, ty ambone’e naha-takatse an-digiligin-dike­rañe eñe vaho inge, niañambone naho nizotsoa’ o anjelin’Añahareo.
He dreamed and saw a stairway set up on the earth. Its top reached to heaven and the angels of God were ascending and descending on it.
13 Naheo’e te nijohañe ambone’e ey t’Iehovà, nanao ty hoe: Izaho Iehovà Andrianañaharen-drae’o Avrahame naho Andrianañahare’ Iets’ake. Hatoloko azo naho amo tarira’oo o tane andrea’o henaneo.
Behold, Yahweh stood above it and said, “I am Yahweh, the God of Abraham your father, and the God of Isaac. The land on which you are lying, I will give to you and to your descendants.
14 Ho mira ami’ty debo’ ty tane toy o tarira’oo, ie hangetseketseke mañandrefa naho maniñana naho mañavaratse vaho mañatimo, le ihe naho o tarira’oo ro hitahiañe ze hene hasavereña’ ty tane toy.
Your descendants will be like the dust of the earth, and you will spread far out to the west, to the east, to the north, and to the south. Through you and through your descendants will all the families of the earth be blessed.
15 Inao, mpindre ama’o iraho, hañambeñe azo ndra aia’aia ty hañaveloa’o, vaho hampoliko an-tane atoy, le tsy hieng’ azo naho tsy henefeko o vinolako ama’oo.
Behold, I am with you, and I will keep you wherever you go. I will bring you into this land again; for I will not leave you. I will do all that I have promised to you.”
16 Ie nivañoñe amy firota’ey t’Iakobe le hoe re, Toe an-toetse atoy t’Iehovà fe tsy napotako.
Jacob awoke out of his sleep, and he said, “Surely Yahweh is in this place, and I did not know it.”
17 Nihemban-dre le nanao ty hoe, Akore ty harevendreveñañe etoañe! Ts’inoñe naho tsy anjomban’ Añahare ty etoa vaho itoy i lalambein-dikerañey.
He was afraid and said, “How terrifying is this place! This is none other than the house of God. This is the gate of heaven.”
18 Nitroatse marain-tsikiake t’Iakòbe le rinambe’e i vato napo’e ho ankala’ ty añambone’ey naho natroa’e ho ajiba, vaho nañiliña’e solike ambone’e eo.
Jacob arose early in the morning and took the stone that he had put under his head. He set it up as a pillar and poured oil upon the top of it.
19 Natao’e ty hoe Betele ty añara’ i toetsey, fa nitokaveñe ty hoe Loze i tanàñey taolo.
He called the name of that place Bethel, but the name of the city originally was Luz.
20 Nifanta amy zao t’Iakòbe ami’ty hoe, Naho hañimbañ’ ahiko t’i Andrianañahare, hañaro ahy ami’ty liako toy naho hamahañe ahy hànen-ko haneñe naho lamba hisikinañe,
Jacob vowed a vow, saying, “If God will be with me and will protect me on this road on which I am walking, and will give me bread to eat, and clothes to wear,
21 hibalihako an-kanintsi­ñe mb’añ’ anjomban-draeko añe, le ho Andrianañahareko t’Iehovà,
so that I return safely to my father's house, then Yahweh will be my God.
22 naho ho anjomban’ Añahare ty vato natroako ho ajiba toy, vaho toe homeako Azo ty faha-folo’ ze hene hatolo’o ahiko.
Then this stone that I have set up as a pillar will be a sacred stone. From everything that you give me, I will surely give a tenth back to you.”
