1 God El fahk nu sel Jacob, “Som nu Bethel ingena ac muta we. Musaela sie loang ah luk we, nga God se su tuh sikwot nu sum pacl se kom tuh kaing lukel Esau, tamulel lom.”
And God said to Jacob, Arise, go up to Bethel, and dwell there, and make there an altar unto the God that appeared unto thee when thou fleddest from the face of Esau thy brother.
2 Ouinge Jacob el fahk nu sin sou lal ac mwet nukewa ma welul, “Sisla god saya ma oan yuruwos an. Aknasnasyekowosla, ac nokomang nuknuk nasnas tuh kowos in nasnas ye mutun God.
And Jacob said to his household, and to all that were with him, Put away the strange gods that are among you, and cleanse yourselves, and change your garments;
3 Kut ac som liki acn se inge nu Bethel, yen su nga ac fah musaela sie loang nu sin God se su tuh kasreyu in pacl in ongoiya nu sik, ac su nuna wiyu na yen nukewa nga fahsr nu we.”
and we will arise, and go up to Bethel; and I will make there an altar to the God that answered me in the day of my distress, and was with me in the way that I went.
4 Ouinge elos sang nu sel Jacob god sac nukewa ma oasr yorolos, ac oayapa yaring ma elos orekmakin. El pikinya ma inge ye sak oak soko apkuran nu Shechem.
And they gave to Jacob all the strange gods that were in their hand, and the rings that were in their ears, and Jacob hid them under the terebinth that [is] by Shechem.
5 Ke Jacob ac wen natul nukewa mukuiyak in som, mwet nukewa su muta in siti srisrik ma apkuran elos arulana sangeng, ac tiana ukwalos.
And they journeyed; and the terror of God was upon the cities that were round about them, and they did not pursue after the sons of Jacob.
6 Jacob el tuku wi mwet lal nukewa nu Luz, su pangpang Bethel in pacl inge, in acn Canaan.
And Jacob came to Luz, which is in the land of Canaan, that is, Bethel, he and all the people that were with him.

And God appeared to Jacob again after he had come from Padan-Aram, and blessed him.

And God said to him, Thy name is Jacob: thy name shall not henceforth be called Jacob, but Israel shall be thy name. And he called his name Israel.

And God said to him, I am the Almighty God: be fruitful and multiply; a nation and a company of nations shall be of thee; and kings shall come out of thy loins.
12 Nga ac sot nu sum acn ma nga tuh sang nu sel Abraham ac nu sel Isaac, ac nga fah oayapa sang nu sin fwilin tulik nutum tok.”
And the land that I gave Abraham and Isaac, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed after thee will I give the land.
