< 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.
Then Isaac called Jacob, and blessed him, —and commanded him and said to him, Thou shalt not take a wife of the daughters of Canaan.
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.
Rise, go thy way to Padan-aram to the house of Bethuel, thy mother’s father, —and take thee from thence a wife, of the daughters of Laban, thy 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;
And, GOD Almighty, bless thee, and make thee fruitful, and multiply thee, so shalt thou become a multitude 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 may he give thee the blessing of Abraham, to thee, and to thy seed with thee, —that thou mayest possess the land of thy sojournings, which God gave to Abraham.
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.
So Isaac sent away Jacob, and he took his journey to Padan-aram, —unto Laban son of Bethuel, the Syrian, brother of Rebekah, mother of Jacob and Esau.
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.
And Esau beheld that Isaac, when he blessed Jacob, and sent him to Padan-aram, to take to himself from thence a wife, that in blessing him, he laid command upon him, saying, Thou shalt not take a wife of the daughters of Canaan;
7 At sumunod si Jacob sa kaniyang ama at sa kaniyang ina, at naparoon sa Padan-aram;
And that Jacob hearkened unto his father and unto his mother, —and took his journey to Padan-aram.
8 At nakita ni Esau na hindi nakalulugod ang mga anak ng Canaan kay Isaac na kaniyang ama;
So then Esau beheld that displeasing, were the daughters of Caanan, —in the eyes of Isaac 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 therefore went unto Ishmael, —and took Mahalath daughter of Ishmael son of Abraham sister of Nebaioth, to himself to wife, in addition to the wives that he had.
10 At umalis si Jacob sa Beerseba at napasa dakong Haran.
So Jacob went forth from Beer-sheba, and journeyed towards Haran.
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.
And he lighted on a place, and tarried the night there, because the sun had gone in, —and he took of the stones of the place, and put for his pillow, and lay down in that place,
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.
And he dreamed, and lo! a stairway, planted earthwards, with, its top, reaching towards the heavens, —and lo! messengers of God, ascending and descending thereon;
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;
and lo! Yahweh, standing by him, —and he said, I, am Yahweh, God of Abraham thy father and God of Isaac, —The land whereon, thou, art lying, to thee, will I give it and to thy seed;
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.
And thy seed shall become as the dust of the earth, and thou shalt break forth westward and eastward, and northward and southward, —And all the families of the ground shall be blessed in thee and in thy seed.
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.
Lo! then, I, am with thee, so will I keep thee in every place whithersoever thou mayest go, and will bring thee back unto this soil, —For I will not forsake thee until I have done that of which I have spoken to thee.
16 At nagising si Jacob sa kaniyang panaginip, at nagsabi, Tunay na ang Panginoon ay nasa dakong ito, at hindi ko nalalaman.
And Jacob awoke from his sleep, and said. Surely, Yahweh was in this place, And I, knew it not.
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.
And he feared and said, How fearful is this place! None other this, than the house of God! Nor this than the gate of the heavens
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.
So Jacob rose early in the morning, and took the stone which he had put for his pillow, and put it for a pillar, —and poured out oil upon the top thereof;
19 At ang ipinangalan niya sa dakong yaon ay Betel: datapuwa't ang pangalan ng bayan nang una ay Luz.
and called the name of that place—Beth-el, —nevertheless, Luz, was the name of the city, aforetime.
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,
And Jacob vowed a vow, saying, —If God will be with me, and will keep me in this way whereon, I, am going, and give me bread to eat and raiment 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,
and I come back in prosperity unto the house of my father, Then will Yahweh prove to 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.
And, this stone which I have put for a pillar, shall be the house of God, —And, of all which thou shalt give me, a tenth, will I tithe unto thee.
