Genesis 35 (YOR)

1Nígbà náà ni Ọlọ́run wí fún Jakọbu pé, “Gòkè lọ sí Beteli kí o sì tẹ̀dó síbẹ̀, kí ó mọ pẹpẹ níbẹ̀ fún Ọlọ́run tó farahàn ọ́ nígbà tí o ń sálọ kúrò níwájú Esau arákùnrin rẹ.”Then God said to Jacob, “Arise, go up to Bethel, and settle there. Build an altar there to the God who appeared to you when you fled from your brother Esau.”

2Nítorí náà, Jakọbu wí fún gbogbo ará ilé rẹ̀ pé, “Ẹ mú gbogbo àjèjì òrìṣà tí ó wà lọ́dọ̀ yín kúrò, kí ẹ ya ara yín sí mímọ́, kí ẹ sì pààrọ̀ aṣọ yín.So Jacob told his household and all who were with him, “Get rid of the foreign gods that are among you. Purify yourselves and change your garments.

3Nígbà náà ni kí ẹ wá, kí ẹ jẹ́ kí a lọ sí Beteli, níbi tí n ó ti mọ pẹpẹ fún Ọlọ́run, tí ó dá mi lóhùn ní ọjọ́ ìpọ́njú mi tí ó sì ti ń pẹ̀lú mi níbi gbogbo tí mo ń lọ.”Then let us arise and go to Bethel. I will build an altar there to God, who answered me in my day of distress. He has been with me wherever I have gone.”

4Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni wọ́n fún Jakọbu ní gbogbo àjèjì òrìṣà tí ó wà lọ́wọ́ wọn, àti yẹtí etí wọn, Jakọbu sì bo gbogbo wọn mọ́lẹ̀ sábẹ́ igi óákù ní Ṣekemu.So they gave Jacob all their foreign gods and all their earrings, and Jacob buried them under the oak near Shechem.

5Wọ́n sì bẹ̀rẹ̀ ìrìnàjò wọn. Ìbẹ̀rù Ọlọ́run sì ń bẹ lára gbogbo ìlú tí ó yí wọn ká, wọ́n kò sì lépa àwọn ọmọ Jakọbu.As they set out, a terror from God fell over the surrounding cities, so that they did not pursue Jacob’s sons.

6Jakọbu àti gbogbo àwọn tí ó wà pẹ̀lú rẹ̀ sì dé sí Lusi (ti o túmọ̀ sí Beteli) tí ó wà ní ilẹ̀ Kenaani.So Jacob and everyone with him arrived in Luz (that is, Bethel) in the land of Canaan.

7Níbẹ̀ ni ó sì mọ pẹpẹ kan tí ó pè ní El-Beteli, nítorí níbẹ̀ ni Ọlọ́run ti gbé fi ara hàn án nígbà tí ó ń sálọ fún arákùnrin rẹ̀.There Jacob built an altar, and he called that place El-bethel, because it was there that God had revealed Himself to Jacob as he fled from his brother.

8Kò pẹ́ lẹ́yìn èyí ni Debora, olùtọ́jú Rebeka kú, a sì sin ín sábẹ́ igi óákù ní ìsàlẹ̀ Beteli. Nítorí náà a sọ ọ́ ní Aloni-Bakuti.Now Deborah, Rebekah’s nurse, died and was buried under the oak below Bethel. So Jacob named it Allon-bacuth.

9Lẹ́yìn tí Jakọbu padà dé láti Padani-Aramu, Ọlọ́run tún fi ara hàn án, ó sì súre fún un.After Jacob had returned from Paddan-aram, God appeared to him again and blessed him.

10Ọlọ́run sì wí fun un pé, “Jakọbu ni orúkọ rẹ, a kì yóò pè ọ́ ní Jakọbu mọ́; bí kò ṣe Israẹli.” Nítorí náà, ó sọ orúkọ rẹ̀ ní Israẹli.And God said to him, “Though your name is Jacob, you will no longer be called Jacob. Instead, your name will be Israel.” So God named him Israel.

11Ọlọ́run sì wí fún un pé, “Èmi ni Ọlọ́run alágbára, El-Ṣaddai; máa bí sí i, kí o sì máa pọ̀ sí i. Orílẹ̀-èdè àti ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ orílẹ̀-èdè ni yóò ti ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ̀ wá, àwọn ọba yóò sì jáde wá láti ara rẹ̀.And God told him, “I am God Almighty. Be fruitful and multiply. A nation—even a company of nations—shall come from you, and kings shall descend from you.

12Gbogbo ilẹ̀ tí mo fi fún Abrahamu àti Isaaki ni èmi yóò fún ọ pẹ̀lú, àti fún àwọn ìran rẹ tí ó ń bọ̀ lẹ́yìn.”The land that I gave to Abraham and Isaac I will give to you, and I will give this land to your descendants after you.”

13Nígbà náà ni Ọlọ́run gòkè lọ kúrò ní ibi tí ó ti ń bá a sọ̀rọ̀.Then God went up from the place where He had spoken with him.

14Jakọbu sì fi òkúta ṣe ọ̀wọ̀n kan sí ibi tí Ọlọ́run ti bá a sọ̀rọ̀, ó sì ta ọrẹ ohun mímu sí orí rẹ̀, ó sì da òróró olifi sí orí rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú.So Jacob set up a pillar in the place where God had spoken with him—a stone marker—and he poured out a drink offering on it and anointed it with oil.

15Jakọbu sì pe orúkọ ibi tí Ọlọ́run ti bá a sọ̀rọ̀ ní Beteli.Jacob called the place where God had spoken with him Bethel.

16Nígbà náà ni wọ́n ń tẹ̀síwájú nínú ìrìnàjò wọn láti Beteli. Nígbà tí ó sì ku díẹ̀ kí wọn dé Efrata, Rakeli bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí ní rọbí, ó sì ní ìdààmú púpọ̀.Later, they set out from Bethel, and while they were still some distance from Ephrath, Rachel began to give birth, and her labor was difficult.

17Bí ó sì ti ń rọbí pẹ̀lú ìrora yìí, agbẹ̀bí wí fún un pé, “Má bẹ̀rù nítorí ọmọkùnrin mìíràn ni ó ń bọ̀ yìí.”During her severe labor, the midwife said to her, “Do not be afraid, for you are having another son.”

18Bí o sì ti fẹ́ gbé ẹ̀mí mi, torí pé ó ń kú lọ, ó pe ọmọ rẹ̀ náà ní Bene-Oni, ọmọ ìpọ́njú. Ṣùgbọ́n Jakọbu sọ ọmọ náà ní Benjamini, ọmọ oókan àyà mi.And with her last breath—for she was dying—she named him Ben-oni. But his father called him Benjamin.

19Báyìí ni Rakeli kú, a sì sin ín sí ọ̀nà Efrata (ti o túmọ̀ sí, Bẹtilẹhẹmu).So Rachel died and was buried on the way to Ephrath (that is, Bethlehem).

20Jakọbu sì mọ ọ̀wọ́n kan sí ibojì rẹ̀, ọ̀wọ̀n náà sì tọ́ka sí ojú ibojì Rakeli títí di òní.Jacob set up a pillar on her grave; it marks Rachel’s tomb to this day.

21Israẹli sì ń bá ìrìnàjò rẹ̀ lọ, ó sì pa àgọ́ rẹ̀ sí Migida-Ederi, ilé ìṣọ́ Ederi.Israel again set out and pitched his tent beyond the Tower of Eder.

22Nígbà tí Israẹli sì ń gbé ní ibẹ̀, Reubeni wọlé tọ Biliha, àlè baba rẹ̀ lọ, ó sì bá a lòpọ̀, Israẹli sì gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ náà. Jakọbu sì bí ọmọkùnrin méjìlá.While Israel was living in that region, Reuben went in and slept with his father’s concubine Bilhah, and Israel heard about it. Jacob had twelve sons:

23Àwọn ọmọ Lea, Reubeni tí í ṣe àkọ́bí Jakọbu, Simeoni, Lefi, Juda, Isakari àti Sebuluni.The sons of Leah were Reuben the firstborn of Jacob, Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar, and Zebulun.

24Àwọn ọmọ Rakeli: Josẹfu àti Benjamini.The sons of Rachel were Joseph and Benjamin.

25Àwọn ọmọ Biliha ìránṣẹ́bìnrin Rakeli: Dani àti Naftali.The sons of Rachel’s maidservant Bilhah were Dan and Naphtali.

26Àwọn ọmọ Silipa ìránṣẹ́bìnrin Lea: Gadi àti Aṣeri. Àwọn wọ̀nyí ni ọmọ tí Jakọbu bí ní Padani-Aramu.And the sons of Leah’s maidservant Zilpah were Gad and Asher. These are the sons of Jacob, who were born to him in Paddan-aram.

27Jakọbu sì padà dé ilé lọ́dọ̀ Isaaki baba rẹ̀ ni Mamre nítòsí i Kiriati-Arba (ti o túmọ̀ sí Hebroni). Níbi tí Abrahamu àti Isaaki gbé.Jacob returned to his father Isaac at Mamre, near Kiriath-arba (that is, Hebron), where Abraham and Isaac had stayed.

28Ẹni ọgọ́sàn-án ọdún ni Isaaki.And Isaac lived 180 years.

29Isaaki sì kú láìpẹ́ lẹ́yìn ìpadàbọ̀ Jakọbu, a sì sin ín pẹ̀lú àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀ ní ọjọ́ ogbó rẹ̀. Esau àti Jakọbu ọmọ rẹ̀ sì sin ín.Then he breathed his last and died and was gathered to his people, old and full of years. And his sons Esau and Jacob buried him.
