Genesis 28
1 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.
Te dongah Isaak loh Jakob te a khue phoeiah yoethen a paek tih a uen vaengah, “Kanaan nu te na yuu la lo boeh.
2 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.
Thoo, Paddanaram kah na nu kah a napa Bethuel im la cet lamtah na nupu Laban canu te na yuu la lo.
3 And, GOD Almighty, bless thee, and make thee fruitful, and multiply thee, so shalt thou become a multitude of peoples.
Pathen Tlungthang loh nang te yoethen m'paek vetih na pungtai uh phoeiah na ping uh vaengah pilnam hlangping la na om bitni.
4 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.
Tedae Pathen loh Abraham taengah a paek tangtae Abraham kah yoethennah, na lampahnah kho he nang neh na tiingan loh na pang ham m'pae saeh” a ti nah.
5 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.
Te phoeiah Isaak loh Jakob te a tueih tih Jakob neh Esau kah a manu Rebekah kah nganpa Laban, Paddanaram Arammi Bethuel capa taengla cet.
6 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;
Tedae Isaak loh Jakob yoethen a paek tih a yuu aka lo ham Paddanaram la a tueih te khaw, Jakob te yoethen a paek vaengah Kanaan nu te na yuu la lo boeh a ti nah tih a uen te khaw Esau loh a hmuh.
7 And that Jacob hearkened unto his father and unto his mother, —and took his journey to Padan-aram.
Jakob long khaw a napa neh a manu ol a ngai tih Paddanaram la cet.
8 So then Esau beheld that displeasing, were the daughters of Caanan, —in the eyes of Isaac his father:
Esau long khaw a napa Isaak kah mik ah Kanaan nu te thae tila a hmuh.
9 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.
Te dongah Esau loh Ishmael taengla cet tih a yuu rhoek hmanah Abraham capa Ishmael canu Mahalath, Nebaioth ngannu te a yuu la a loh.
10 So Jacob went forth from Beer-sheba, and journeyed towards Haran.
Te vaengah Jakob loh Beersheba lamloh cet tih Haran la pawk.
11 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,
Tedae hmuen pakhat te a pha vaengah khomik vik tla tih pahoi rhaeh. Te vaengah te hmuen kah lungto a loh tih a lu a tloeng. Te phoeiah tekah hmuen ah yalh.
12 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;
Te vaengah mang a man hatah diklai ah kuihlak tarha doh uh tih a soi loh vaan duela a pha. A soah Pathen kah puencawn rhoek te tarha luei uh tih suntla uh.
13 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;
Te vaengah anih taengah BOEIPA te lawt pai tih, “Kai na pa Abraham kah BOEIPA Pathen neh Isaak kah Pathen loh na yalh nah diklai he nang neh nang kah tiingan taengah kan paek ni.
14 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.
Nang kah tiingan tah diklai laipi bangla om vetih khothoeng tuitunli neh tuithim tlangpuei la na pungtai uh phoeiah nang neh nang tiingan rhang neh diklai huiko boeih loh a yoethen uh ni.
15 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.
Kai he nang taengah ka om tih na caeh nah boeih ah nang kan ngaithuen. Te dongah nang te he khohmuen la kam mael puei bitni. Nang taengah ka thui te ka saii hlan vaengah nang kan hnoo mahpawh,” a ti nah.
16 And Jacob awoke from his sleep, and said. Surely, Yahweh was in this place, And I, knew it not.
Te dongah Jakob loh a ih lamkah a haenghang vaengah, “Hekah hmuen ah BOEIPA loh rhep om dae kai loh ka ming pawh” a ti.
17 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
Tedae a rhih tih, “Hekah hmuen he rhih ham om tih Pathen kah im neh vaan vongka pawt atah a tloe moenih he” a ti.
18 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;
Jakob loh mincang a thoh vaengah a lu kah a khueh lungto te a loh tih kaam a ling phoeiah a so ah situi a bueih.
19 and called the name of that place—Beth-el, —nevertheless, Luz, was the name of the city, aforetime.
Te dongah tekah khopuei ming te lamhma ah Luz la om dae hatah tekah hmuen ming te Bethel la a khue.
20 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;
Te phoeiah Jakob loh olcaeng neh a caeng tih, “Pathen loh kai taengah om tih he longpuei ah ka caeh vanbangla, kai n'dawndah phoeiah caak ham buh neh bai ham himbai te kai m'paek bal tih,
21 and I come back in prosperity unto the house of my father, Then will Yahweh prove to be my God, —
a pa im ah sading la ka bal atah BOEIPA te kai kah Pathen la om ni.
22 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.
Te phoeiah hekah lungto kaam la ka ling he Pathen kah im la poeh vetih kai nan paek boeih te namah ham parha pakhat la kan paek ni,” a ti.
