Gênesis 35
1 Depois disse Deus a Jacob: Levanta-te, sobe a Bethel, e habita ali; e faz ali um altar ao Deus que te appareceu, quando fugiste diante da face de Esaú teu irmão.
[Some time later] God said to Jacob, “Go up to Bethel, and live there. Build an altar to worship me, God, who appeared to you when you were fleeing from your older brother Esau.”
2 Então disse Jacob á sua familia, e a todos os que com elle estavam: Tirae os deuses estranhos, que ha no meio de vós, e purificae-vos, e mudae os vossos vestidos.
So Jacob said to his household and to all the others who were with him, “Get rid of the idols you brought from Mesopotamia. Also, bathe yourselves and put on clean clothes.
3 E levantemo-nos, e subamos a Bethel; e ali farei um altar ao Deus que me respondeu no dia da minha angustia, e que foi commigo no caminho que tenho andado.
Then we will get ready and go up to Bethel. There I will make an altar to worship God. He is the one who helped me at the time when I was greatly distressed and afraid, and he has been with me wherever I have gone.”
4 Então deram a Jacob todos os deuses estranhos, que tinham em suas mãos, e as arrecadas que estavam em suas orelhas; e Jacob os escondeu debaixo do carvalho que está junto a Sichem.
So they gave to Jacob all the idols that they had brought, and all their earrings. Jacob buried them in the ground under the big oak tree that was near Shechem [town].
5 E partiram; e o terror de Deus foi sobre as cidades que estavam ao redor d'elles, e não seguiram após os filhos de Jacob.
As they prepared to leave there, God caused the people who lived in the cities around them to be extremely afraid of Jacob’s family [PRS], so that they did not pursue and attack them.
6 Assim chegou Jacob a Luz, que está na terra de Canaan, (esta é Bethel), elle e todo o povo que com elle havia.
Jacob and all those who were with him came to Luz, which is now called Bethel, in the Canaan region.
7 E edificou ali um altar, e chamou aquelle logar El-beth-el: porquanto Deus ali se lhe tinha manifestado quando fugia diante da face de seu irmão.
There he built an altar. He named the place El-Bethel, [which means ‘God of Bethel]’, because it was there that God revealed himself to Jacob when he was fleeing from his older brother Esau.
8 E morreu Debora, a ama de Rebecca, e foi sepultada ao pé de Bethel, debaixo do carvalho cujo nome chamou Allonbachuth.
Deborah, who had taken care of Isaac’s wife Rebekah when Rebekah was a small girl, was now very old. She died and was buried under an oak tree south of Bethel. So they named that place Allon-Bacuth, [which means ‘oak of weeping’].
9 E appareceu Deus outra vez a Jacob, vindo de Paddan-aram, e abençoou-o.
After Jacob and his family returned from Paddan-Aram/Mesopotamia, while they were still at Bethel, God appeared to Jacob again and blessed him.
10 E disse-lhe Deus: O teu nome é Jacob; não se chamará mais o teu nome Jacob, mas Israel será o teu nome. E chamou o seu nome Israel.
God said to him again, “Your name will no longer be Jacob. It will be Israel.” So Jacob was then called ‘Israel’.
11 Disse-lhe mais Deus: Eu sou o Deus Todo-poderoso; fructifica e multiplica-te; uma nação e multidão de nações sairão de ti, e reis procederão dos teus lombos
Then God said to him, “I am God Almighty. Produce many children. Your descendants will become many nations, and some of your descendants will be kings.
12 E te darei a ti a terra que tenho dado a Abrahão e a Isaac, e á tua semente depois de ti darei a terra.
The land that I promised to give to [your grandfather] Abraham and [your father] Isaac, I will give to you. I will also give it to your descendants.”
13 E Deus subiu d'elle, do logar onde fallara com elle.
When God finished talking there with Jacob, he left him.
14 E Jacob poz uma columna no logar onde fallara com elle, uma columna de pedra; e derramou sobre ella uma libação, e deitou sobre ella azeite.
Jacob set up a large stone at the place where God had talked with him. He poured some wine and some [olive] oil on it to dedicate it to God.
15 E chamou Jacob o nome d'aquelle logar, onde Deus fallara com elle, Bethel.
Jacob named that place Bethel, [which means ‘house of God]’, because God had spoken to him there.
16 E partiram de Bethel: e havia ainda um pequeno espaço de terra para chegar a Ephrata, e pariu Rachel, e ella teve trabalho em seu parto.
Jacob and his family left Bethel and traveled south toward Ephrath [town]. When they were still some distance from Ephrath, Rachel began to have severe childbirth pains.
17 E aconteceu que, tendo ella trabalho em seu parto, lhe disse a parteira: Não temas, porque tambem este filho terás.
When her pain was the most severe, the (midwife/woman who helped her to give birth) said to Rachel, “Do not be afraid, because now you have given birth to another son!”
18 E aconteceu que, saindo-se-lhe a alma (porque morreu), chamou o seu nome Benoni; mas seu pae o chamou Benjamin.
But she was dying, and with her last breath she said, “Name him Benoni,” [which means ‘son of my sorrow]’, but his father named him Benjamin, [which means ‘son of my right hand]’.
19 Assim morreu Rachel; e foi sepultada no caminho d'Ephrata, este é Beth-lehem.
After Rachel died, she was buried alongside the road to Ephrath, which is [now called] Bethlehem.
20 E Jacob poz uma columna sobre a sua sepultura; esta é a columna da sepultura de Rachel até ao dia de hoje.
Jacob set up a large stone over her grave, and it is still there, showing where Rachel’s grave is.
21 Então partiu Israel, e estendeu a sua tenda d'além de Migdal Eder.
Jacob, whose new name was Israel, continued traveling with his family, and he set up his tents on the south side of the watchtower at Eder [town].
22 E aconteceu que, habitando Israel n'aquella terra, foi Ruben, e deitou-se com Bilhah, concubina de seu pae; e Israel ouviu-o. E eram doze os filhos de Jacob:
While they were living in that area, Jacob’s son Reuben had sex [EUP] with Bilhah, one of his father’s (concubines/female slaves whom he had taken as a secondary wife). Someone told Jacob about it, and it made him very angry. (I will now give you/Here is) a list of Jacob’s twelve sons.
23 Os filhos de Leah: Ruben, o primogenito de Jacob, depois Simeão e Levi, e Judah, e Issacar e Zebulon;
The sons of Leah were Reuben, who was Jacob’s oldest son, then Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar and Zebulon.
24 Os filhos de Rachel: José e Benjamin;
The sons of Rachel were Joseph and Benjamin.
25 E os filhos de Bilhah, serva de Rachel: Dan e Naphtali;
The sons of Rachel’s female slave Bilhah were Dan and Naphtali.
26 E os filhos de Zilpah, serva de Leah: Gad e Aser. Estes são os filhos de Jacob, que lhe nasceram em Paddan-aram.
The sons of Leah’s female slave Zilpah were Gad and Asher. All those sons of Jacob, except Benjamin, were born while he was living in Paddan-Aram/Mesopotamia.
27 E Jacob veiu a seu pae Isaac, a Mamre, a Kiriath-arba (que é Hebron), onde peregrinaram Abrahão e Isaac.
Jacob had returned back home to see his father Isaac at Mamre, which is also named Kiriath-Arba, and which is now named Hebron. Isaac’s father Abraham had also lived there.
28 E foram os dias de Isaac cento e oitenta annos.
Isaac lived until he was 180 years old.
29 E Isaac expirou, e morreu, e foi recolhido aos seus povos, velho e farto de dias; e Esaú e Jacob, seus filhos, o sepultaram.
He was very old when he died, joining his ancestors who had died previously. His sons Esau and Jacob buried his body.
