اَلتَّكْوِينُ 28
| فَدَعَا إِسْحَاقُ يَعْقُوبَ وَبَارَكَهُ، وَأَوْصَاهُ وَقَالَ لَهُ: «لَا تَأْخُذْ زَوْجَةً مِنْ بَنَاتِ كَنْعَانَ. | ١ 1 |
Isaac called Jacob, blessed him, and commanded him, “You must not take a wife from the Canaanite women.
| قُمِ ٱذْهَبْ إِلَى فَدَّانِ أَرَامَ، إِلَى بَيْتِ بَتُوئِيلَ أَبِي أُمِّكَ، وَخُذْ لِنَفْسِكَ زَوْجَةً مِنْ هُنَاكَ، مِنْ بَنَاتِ لَابَانَ أَخِي أُمِّكَ. | ٢ 2 |
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.
| وَٱللهُ ٱلْقَدِيرُ يُبَارِكُكَ، وَيَجْعَلُكَ مُثْمِرًا، وَيُكَثِّرُكَ فَتَكُونُ جُمْهُورًا مِنَ ٱلشُّعُوبِ. | ٣ 3 |
May God Almighty bless you, make you fruitful and multiply you, so that you may become a multitude of peoples.
| وَيُعْطِيكَ بَرَكَةَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ لَكَ وَلِنَسْلِكَ مَعَكَ، لِتَرِثَ أَرْضَ غُرْبَتِكَ ٱلَّتِي أَعْطَاهَا ٱللهُ لِإِبْرَاهِيمَ». | ٤ 4 |
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.”
| فَصَرَفَ إِسْحَاقُ يَعْقُوبَ فَذَهَبَ إِلَى فَدَّانِ أَرَامَ، إِلَى لَابَانَ بْنِ بَتُوئِيلَ ٱلْأَرَامِيِّ، أَخِي رِفْقَةَ أُمِّ يَعْقُوبَ وَعِيسُوَ. | ٥ 5 |
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.
| فَلَمَّا رَأَى عِيسُو أَنَّ إِسْحَاقَ بَارَكَ يَعْقُوبَ وَأَرْسَلَهُ إِلَى فَدَّانِ أَرَامَ لِيَأْخُذَ لِنَفْسِهِ مِنْ هُنَاكَ زَوْجَةً، إِذْ بَارَكَهُ وَأَوْصَاهُ قَائِلًا: «لَا تَأْخُذْ زَوْجَةً مِنْ بَنَاتِ كَنْعَانَ». | ٦ 6 |
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.”
| وَأَنَّ يَعْقُوبَ سَمِعَ لِأَبِيهِ وَأُمِّهِ وَذَهَبَ إِلَى فَدَّانِ أَرَامَ،. | ٧ 7 |
Esau also saw that Jacob had obeyed his father and his mother, and had gone to Paddan Aram.
| رَأَى عِيسُو أَنَّ بَنَاتِ كَنْعَانَ شِرِّيرَاتٌ فِي عَيْنَيْ إِسْحَاقَ أَبِيهِ، | ٨ 8 |
Esau saw that the women of Canaan did not please Isaac his father.
| فَذَهَبَ عِيسُو إِلَى إِسْمَاعِيلَ وَأَخَذَ مَحْلَةَ بِنْتَ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، أُخْتَ نَبَايُوتَ، زَوْجَةً لَهُ عَلَى نِسَائِهِ. | ٩ 9 |
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.
| فَخَرَجَ يَعْقُوبُ مِنْ بِئْرِ سَبْعٍ وَذَهَبَ نَحْوَ حَارَانَ. | ١٠ 10 |
Jacob left Beersheba and went toward Haran.
| وَصَادَفَ مَكَانًا وَبَاتَ هُنَاكَ لِأَنَّ ٱلشَّمْسَ كَانَتْ قَدْ غَابَتْ، وَأَخَذَ مِنْ حِجَارَةِ ٱلْمَكَانِ وَوَضَعَهُ تَحْتَ رَأْسِهِ، فَٱضْطَجَعَ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْمَكَانِ. | ١١ 11 |
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.
| وَرَأَى حُلْمًا، وَإِذَا سُلَّمٌ مَنْصُوبَةٌ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ وَرَأْسُهَا يَمَسُّ ٱلسَّمَاءَ، وَهُوَذَا مَلَائِكَةُ ٱللهِ صَاعِدَةٌ وَنَازِلَةٌ عَلَيْهَا. | ١٢ 12 |
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.
| وَهُوَذَا ٱلرَّبُّ وَاقِفٌ عَلَيْهَا، فَقَالَ: «أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ أَبِيكَ وَإِلَهُ إِسْحَاقَ. ٱلْأَرْضُ ٱلَّتِي أَنْتَ مُضْطَجِعٌ عَلَيْهَا أُعْطِيهَا لَكَ وَلِنَسْلِكَ. | ١٣ 13 |
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.
| وَيَكُونُ نَسْلُكَ كَتُرَابِ ٱلْأَرْضِ، وَتَمْتَدُّ غَرْبًا وَشَرْقًا وَشَمَالًا وَجَنُوبًا، وَيَتَبَارَكُ فِيكَ وَفِي نَسْلِكَ جَمِيعُ قَبَائِلِ ٱلْأَرْضِ. | ١٤ 14 |
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.
| وَهَا أَنَا مَعَكَ، وَأَحْفَظُكَ حَيْثُمَا تَذْهَبُ، وَأَرُدُّكَ إِلَى هَذِهِ ٱلْأَرْضِ، لِأَنِّي لَا أَتْرُكُكَ حَتَّى أَفْعَلَ مَا كَلَّمْتُكَ بِهِ». | ١٥ 15 |
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.”
| فَٱسْتَيْقَظَ يَعْقُوبُ مِنْ نَوْمِهِ وَقَالَ: «حَقًّا إِنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ فِي هَذَا ٱلْمَكَانِ وَأَنَا لَمْ أَعْلَمْ!». | ١٦ 16 |
Jacob awoke out of his sleep, and he said, “Surely Yahweh is in this place, and I did not know it.”
| وَخَافَ وَقَالَ: «مَا أَرْهَبَ هَذَا ٱلْمَكَانَ! مَا هَذَا إِلَا بَيْتُ ٱللهِ، وَهَذَا بَابُ ٱلسَّمَاءِ». | ١٧ 17 |
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.”
| وَبَكَّرَ يَعْقُوبُ فِي ٱلصَّبَاحِ وَأَخَذَ ٱلْحَجَرَ ٱلَّذِي وَضَعَهُ تَحْتَ رَأْسِهِ وَأَقَامَهُ عَمُودًا، وَصَبَّ زَيْتًا عَلَى رَأْسِهِ. | ١٨ 18 |
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.
| وَدَعَا ٱسْمَ ذَلِكَ ٱلْمَكَانِ «بَيْتَ إِيلَ»، وَلَكِنِ ٱسْمُ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ أَوَّلًا كَانَ لُوزَ. | ١٩ 19 |
He called the name of that place Bethel, but the name of the city originally was Luz.
| وَنَذَرَ يَعْقُوبُ نَذْرًا قَائِلًا: «إِنْ كَانَ ٱللهُ مَعِي، وَحَفِظَنِي فِي هَذَا ٱلطَّرِيقِ ٱلَّذِي أَنَا سَائِرٌ فِيهِ، وَأَعْطَانِي خُبْزًا لِآكُلَ وَثِيَابًا لِأَلْبَسَ، | ٢٠ 20 |
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,
| وَرَجَعْتُ بِسَلَامٍ إِلَى بَيْتِ أَبِي، يَكُونُ ٱلرَّبُّ لِي إِلَهًا، | ٢١ 21 |
so that I return safely to my father's house, then Yahweh will be my God.
| وَهَذَا ٱلْحَجَرُ ٱلَّذِي أَقَمْتُهُ عَمُودًا يَكُونُ بَيْتَ ٱللهِ، وَكُلُّ مَا تُعْطِينِي فَإِنِّي أُعَشِّرُهُ لَكَ». | ٢٢ 22 |
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.”
