| [1]AND God said to Jacob, Arise, go up to Beth-el, and dwell there; and build there an altar to God, who appeared to you when you fled from the presence of your brother Esau. |
[1]Interea locutus est Deus ad Jacob: Surge, et ascende Bethel, et habita ibi, facque altare Deo qui apparuit tibi quando fugiebas Esau fratrem tuum. |
| [2]Then Jacob said to his household and to all who were with him, Put away the strange gods that are among you, and cleanse yourselves, and change your garments; |
[2]Jacob vero convocata omni domo sua, ait: Abjicite deos alienos qui in medio vestri sunt, et mundamini, ac mutate vestimenta vestra. |
| [3]And let us arise and go up to Beth-el; and I will build there an altar to God, who answered me in the day of my distress, and was with me in the journey that I took. |
[3]Surgite, et ascendamus in Bethel, ut faciamus ibi altare Deo: qui exaudivit me in die tribulationis meæ, et socius fuit itineris mei. |
| [4]So they gave to Jacob all the strange gods that were in their possession, and the earrings that were in their ears; and Jacob buried them under the oak which was by Shechem. |
[4]Dederunt ergo ei omnes deos alienos quos habebant, et inaures quæ erant in auribus eorum: at ille infodit ea subter terebinthum, quæ est post urbem Sichem. |
| [5]And they journeyed; and the fear of God fell upon the towns that were round about them, and they did not pursue after Jacob and his sons |
[5]Cumque profecti essent, terror Dei invasit omnes per circuitum civitates, et non sunt ausi persequi recedentes. |
| [6]So Jacob came to Luz, that is Beth-el, which is in the land of Canaan, he and all the people that were with him. |
[6]Venit igitur Jacob Luzam, quæ est in terra Chanaan, cognomento Bethel: ipse et omnis populus cum eo. |
| [7]And he built there an altar, and called the place Beth-el (the house of God), because there God appeared to him when he fled from the presence of his brother Esau. |
[7]Ædificavitque ibi altare, et appellavit nomen loci illius, Domus Dei: ibi enim apparuit ei Deus cum fugeret fratrem suum. |
| [8]Then Deborah Rebekah's nurse died, and she was buried below Bethel under an oak; so the name of the oak was called Betemtha dabkhatha (the oak of weeping). |
[8]Eodem tempore mortua est Debora nutrix Rebeccæ, et sepulta est ad radices Bethel subter quercum: vocatumque est nomen loci illius, Quercus fletus. |
| [9]And God appeared to Jacob again, when he came from Padan-aram, and blessed him. |
[9]Apparuit autem iterum Deus Jacob postquam reversus est de Mespotamia Syriæ, benedixitque ei |
| [10]And God said to him. Your name shall no longer be called Jacob, but Israel shall be your name; so he called his name Israel. |
[10]dicens: Non vocaberis ultra Jacob, sed Israël erit nomen tuum. Et appellavit eum Israël, |
| [11]And God said to him. I am God Almighty; be fruitful and multiply: a people and a multitude of peoples shall come from you, and kings shall come out of your loins; |
[11]dixitque ei: Ego Deus omnipotens: cresce, et multiplicare: gentes et populi nationum ex te erunt, reges de lumbis tuis egredientur, |
| [12]And the land which I gave to Abraham and Isaac, I will give to you, and to your descendants after you will I give the land. |
[12]terramque quam dedi Abraham et Isaac, dabo tibi et semini tuo post te. |
| [13]And God went up from him in the place where he talked with him. |
[13]Et recessit ab eo. |
| [14]And Jacob set up a pillar in the place where he had talked with him, a pillar of stone, and he poured out a drink offering on it, and he poured oil on it. |
[14]Ille vero erexit titulum lapideum in loco quo locutus fuerat ei Deus: libans super eum libamina, et effundens oleum: |
| [15]And Jacob called the name of the place where God spoke with him, Beth-el |
[15]vocansque nomen loci illius Bethel. |
| [16]And they journeyed from Bethel, and continued until they came within the distance of a mile from the entrance to Ephrath; and Rachel travailed, and she had hard labor while she was being delivered. |
[16]Egressus autem inde, venit verno tempore ad terram quæ ducit Ephratam: in qua cum parturiret Rachel, |
| [17]And it came to pass, when she was in hard labor, the midwife said to her, Fear not; for this one also is a son for you. |
[17]ob difficultatem partus periclitari cœpit. Dixitque ei obstetrix: Noli timere, quia et hunc habebis filium. |
| [18]And it came to pass, as her soul was departing and she was dying, she called the child's name Bar-kebai (the Son of My Sorrow); but his father called him Benjamin (the Son of My Right Hand). |
[18]Egrediente autem anima præ dolore, et imminente jam morte, vocavit nomen filii sui Benomi, id est, Filius doloris mei: pater vero appellavit eum Benjamin, id est, Filius dextræ. |
| [19]And Rachel died, and was buried on the way to Ephrath, which is Beth-lehem. |
[19]Mortua est ergo Rachel, et sepulta est in via quæ ducit Ephratam, hæc est Bethlehem. |
| [20]And Jacob set up a pillar upon the grave of Rachel; that is the pillar of Rachel's grave to this day |
[20]Erexitque Jacob titulum super sepulchrum ejus: hic est titulus monumenti Rachel, usque in præsentem diem. |
| [21]And Israel journeyed, and pitched his tent beyond the tower of Gadar. |
[21]Egressus inde, fixit tabernaculum trans Turrem gregis. |
| [22]And it came to pass, when Israel dwelt in that land, that Reuben went and lay with Bilhah, his father's concubine; and Israel heard of it. Now the sons of Jacob were twelve: |
[22]Cumque habitaret in illa regione, abiit Ruben, et dormivit cum Bala concubina patris sui: quod illum minime latuit. Erant autem filii Jacob duodecim. |
| [23]The sons of Leah: Reuben, Jacob's first-born, Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar, and Zebulun. |
[23]Filii Liæ: primogenitus Ruben, et Simeon, et Levi, et Judas, et Issachar, et Zabulon. |
| [24]And the sons of Rachel: Joseph, and Benjamin. |
[24]Filii Rachel: Joseph et Benjamin. |
| [25]And the sons of Bilhah, Rachel's maid: Dan, and Naphtali. |
[25]Filii Balæ ancillæ Rachelis: Dan et Nephthali. |
| [26]And the sons of Zilpah, Leah's maid: Gad, and Asher. These are the sons of Jacob that were born to him in Padan-aram. |
[26]Filii Zelphæ ancillæ Liæ: Gad et Aser: hi sunt filii Jacob, qui nati sunt ei in Mesopotamia Syriæ. |
| [27]And Jacob came to his father Isaac to Mamre, to Koriath Gabarey, which is Hebron, where Abraham and Isaac had sojourned. |
[27]Venit etiam ad Isaac patrem suum in Mambre, civitatem Arbee, hæc est Hebron, in qua peregrinatus est Abraham et Isaac. |
| [28]And the days of Isaac were a hundred and eighty years. |
[28]Et completi sunt dies Isaac centum octoginta annorum. |
| [29]Then Isaac grew weak and died; and he was gathered to his people, being very old and full of days; and his sons Esau and Jacob buried him in the burial ground which his father Abraham had purchased |
[29]Consumptusque ætate mortuus est: et appositus est populo suo senex et plenus dierum: et sepelierunt eum Esau et Jacob filii sui. |
