Genesis 28
1 At tinawag ni Isaac si Jacob, at siya'y binasbasan, at siya'y pinagbilinan, na sinabi sa kaniya, Huwag kang magaasawa sa mga anak ng Canaan.
Isaac [Laughter] called Jacob [Supplanter], blessed him, and enjoined him, “You shall not take a wife of the daughters of Canaan [Humbled].
2 Tumindig ka, pumaroon ka sa Padan-aram, sa bahay ni Bethuel, na ama ng iyong ina, at magasawa ka roon sa mga anak ni Laban, na kapatid na lalake ng iyong ina.
Arise, go to Paddan Aram [Elevated], to the house of Bethuel your mother’s father. Take a wife from there from the daughters of Laban [White], your mother’s brother.
3 At ikaw ay pagpalain nawa ng Dios na Makapangyarihan sa lahat, at ikaw ay palaguin, at ikaw ay paramihin, upang ikaw ay maging kapisanan ng mga bayan;
May El Shaddai [God Almighty] bless you, and make you fruitful, and multiply you, that you may be a company of peoples,
4 At ibigay nawa sa iyo ang pagpapala kay Abraham, sa iyo, at sangpu sa iyong binhi; upang iyong ariin ang lupaing iyong pinaglakbayan, na ibinigay ng Dios kay Abraham.
and give you the blessing of Abraham [Father of a multitude], to you, and to your offspring with you, that you may inherit the land where you travel, which God gave to Abraham [Father of a multitude].”
5 At pinapagpaalam ni Isaac si Jacob: at naparoon siya sa Padan-aram kay Laban, anak ni Bethuel na taga Siria, na kapatid ni Rebeca, na ina ni Jacob at ni Esau.
Isaac [Laughter] sent Jacob [Supplanter] away. He went to Paddan Aram [Elevated] to Laban [White], son of Bethuel the Syrian, Rebekah [Securely bound]’s brother, Jacob [Supplanter]’s and Esau [Hairy]’s mother.
6 Nakita nga ni Esau na binasbasan ni Isaac si Jacob, at siya'y pinaparoon sa Padan-aram, upang doon magasawa; at nang siya'y basbasan ay ipinagbilin sa kaniya, na sinasabi, Huwag kang magaasawa sa mga anak ng Canaan.
Now Esau [Hairy] saw that Isaac [Laughter] had blessed Jacob [Supplanter] and sent him away to Paddan Aram [Elevated], to take him a wife from there, and as he blessed him, Issac [Laughter] enjoined these words to Esau [Hairy], saying, “You shall not take a wife of the daughters of Canaan [Humbled],”
7 At sumunod si Jacob sa kaniyang ama at sa kaniyang ina, at naparoon sa Padan-aram;
and that Jacob [Supplanter] sh'ma ·heard obeyed· his father and his mother, and was gone to Paddan Aram [Elevated].
8 At nakita ni Esau na hindi nakalulugod ang mga anak ng Canaan kay Isaac na kaniyang ama;
Esau [Hairy] saw that the daughters of Canaan [Humbled] didn’t please Isaac [Laughter], his father.
9 At naparoon si Esau kay Ismael, at nagasawa kay Mahaleth, anak ni Ismael, na anak ni Abraham, na kapatid na babae ni Nabaioth, bukod pa sa mga asawang mayroon na siya.
Esau [Hairy] went to Ishmael [Pays attention God], and took, besides the wives that he had, Mahalath the daughter of Ishmael [Pays attention God], Abraham [Father of a multitude]’s son, the sister of Nebaioth, to be his wife.
10 At umalis si Jacob sa Beerseba at napasa dakong Haran.
Jacob [Supplanter] went out from Be'er-Sheva [Well of Seven, Well of an Oath], and went toward Haran [Mountaineer].
11 At dumating sa isang dako, at nagparaan ng buong gabi roon, sapagka't lumubog na ang araw; at kumuha ng isa sa mga bato sa dakong yaon, at inilagay sa kaniyang ulunan, at nahiga sa dakong yaon upang matulog.
He came to a certain place, and stayed there all night, because the sun had set. He took one of the stones of the place, and put it under his head, and lay down in that place to sleep.
12 At nanaginip, at narito, ang isang hagdan, na ang puno ay nasa lupa, at ang dulo ay umaabot sa langit; at narito, ang mga anghel ng Dios na nagmamanhik manaog doon.
He dreamed. Behold, a stairway set upon the earth, and its top reached to heaven. Behold, the angels of God ascending and descending on it.
13 At, narito, ang Panginoon ay nasa kataastaasan niyaon, at nagsabi, Ako ang Panginoon, ang Dios ni Abraham na iyong ama, at ang Dios ni Isaac: ang lupang kinahihigaan mo ay ibibigay ko sa iyo at sa iyong binhi;
Behold, Adonai stood above it, and said, “I am Adonai, the God of Abraham [Father of a multitude] your father, and the God of Isaac [Laughter]. The land whereon you lie, to you will I give it, and to your offspring.
14 At ang iyong binhi ay magiging parang alabok sa lupa, at kakalat ka sa kalunuran, at sa silanganan, at sa hilagaan, at sa timugan at sa iyo at sa iyong binhi ay pagpapalain ang lahat ng angkan sa lupa.
Your offspring will be as the dust of the earth, and you will spread abroad to the west, and to the east, and to the north, and to the south. In you and in your offspring will all the families of the earth be blessed.
15 At, narito't ako'y sumasa iyo, at iingatan kita saan ka man pumaroon, at pababalikin kita sa lupaing ito sapagka't hindi kita iiwan hanggang hindi ko magawa ang sinalita ko sa iyo.
Behold, I am with you, and will keep you, wherever you go, and will bring you again into this land. For I will not leave you, until I have done that which I have spoken of to you.”
16 At nagising si Jacob sa kaniyang panaginip, at nagsabi, Tunay na ang Panginoon ay nasa dakong ito, at hindi ko nalalaman.
Jacob [Supplanter] awakened out of his sleep, and he said, “Surely Adonai is in this place, and I didn’t know it.”
17 At siya'y natakot, at kaniyang sinabi, Kakilakilabot na dako ito! ito'y hindi iba kundi bahay ng Dios, at ito ang pintuan ng langit.
He was afraid, and said, “How dreadful is this place! This is none other than God’s house, and this is the gate of heaven.”
18 At si Jacob ay bumangong maaga ng kinaumagahan, at kinuha ang batong kaniyang inilagay sa ulunan niya, at kaniyang itinayo na pinakaalaala, at kaniyang binuhusan ng langis sa ibabaw.
Jacob [Supplanter] rose up early in the morning, and took the stone that he had put under his head, and set it up for a pillar, and poured oil on its top.
19 At ang ipinangalan niya sa dakong yaon ay Betel: datapuwa't ang pangalan ng bayan nang una ay Luz.
He called the name of that place Beth-el [House of God], but the name of the city was Luz at the first.
20 At si Jacob ay nagpanata, na sinasabi, Kung sasaakin ang Dios, at ako'y iingatan sa daang ito na aking nilalakaran, at ako'y bibigyan ng tinapay na makakain, at damit na maisusuot,
Jacob [Supplanter] vowed a vow, saying, “If God will be with me, and will keep me in this way that I go, and will give me bread to eat, and clothing to put on,
21 Na ano pa't ako'y makabalik na payapa sa bahay ng aking ama, ay ang Panginoon nga ang magiging aking Dios,
so that I come again to my father’s house in peace, and Adonai will be my God,
22 At ang batong ito na aking itinayo na pinakaalaala ay magiging bahay ng Dios; at sa lahat ng ibigay mo sa akin ay walang pagsalang ang ikasangpung bahagi ay ibibigay ko sa iyo.
then this stone, which I have set up for a pillar, will be God’s house. Of all that you will give me I will surely give a tenth to you.”
