Genesi (تكوين) 28

SMITH VAN DYKE	NEW AMERICAN BIBLE
1 فدعا اسحق يعقوب وباركه واوصاه وقال له لا تأخذ زوجة من بنات كنعان.	1 Isaac therefore called Jacob, greeted him with a blessing, and charged him: "You shall not marry a Canaanite woman!
2 قم اذهب الى فدّان ارام الى بيت بتوئيل ابي امك وخذ لنفسك زوجة من هناك من بنات لابان اخي امك.	2 Go now to Paddan-aram, to the home of your mother's father Bethuel, and there choose a wife for yourself from among the daughters of your uncle Laban.
3 والله القدير يباركك ويجعلك مثمرا ويكثّرك فتكون جمهورا من الشعوب.	3 May God Almighty bless you and make you fertile, multiply you that you may become an assembly of peoples.
4 ويعطيك بركة ابراهيم لك ولنسلك معك. لترث ارض غربتك التي اعطاها الله لابراهيم.	4 May he extend to you and your descendants the blessing he gave to Abraham, so that you may gain possession of the land where you are staying, which he assigned to Abraham."
5 فصرف اسحق يعقوب فذهب الى فدّان ارام الى لابان بن بتوئيل الارامي اخي رفقة ام يعقوب وعيسو	5 Then Isaac sent Jacob on his way; he went to Paddan-aram, to Laban, son of Bethuel the Aramean, and brother of Rebekah, the mother of Jacob and Esau.
6 فلما رأى عيسو ان اسحق بارك يعقوب وارسله الى فدّان ارام ليأخذ لنفسه من هناك زوجة. اذ باركه واوصاه قائلا لا تأخذ زوجة من بنات كنعان.	6 Esau noted that Isaac had blessed Jacob when he sent him to Paddan-aram to get himself a wife there, charging him, as he gave him his blessing, not to marry a Canaanite woman,
7 وان يعقوب سمع لابيه وامّه وذهب الى فدّان ارام	7 and that Jacob had obeyed his father and mother and gone to Paddan-aram.
8 رأى عيسو ان بنات كنعان شريرات في عيني اسحق ابيه.	8 Esau realized how displeasing the Canaanite women were to his father Isaac,
9 فذهب عيسو الى اسماعيل واخذ محلة بنت اسماعيل بن ابراهيم اخت نبايوت زوجة له على نسائه	9 so he went to Ishmael, and in addition to the wives he had, married Mahalath, the daughter of Abraham's son Ishmael and sister of Nebaioth.
10 فخرج يعقوب من بئر سبع وذهب نحو حاران.	10 Jacob departed from Beer-sheba and proceeded toward Haran.
11 وصادف مكانا وبات هناك لان الشمس كانت قد غابت. واخذ من حجارة المكان ووضعه تحت راسه فاضطجع في ذلك المكان.	11 When he came upon a certain shrine, as the sun had already set, he stopped there for the night. Taking one of the stones at the shrine, he put it under his head and lay down to sleep at that spot.
12 ورأى حلما واذا سلّم منصوبة على الارض وراسها يمسّ السماء. وهوذا ملائكة الله صاعدة ونازلة عليها.	12 Then he had a dream: a stairway rested on the ground, with its top reaching to the heavens; and God's messengers were going up and down on it.
13 وهوذا الرب واقف عليها فقال انا الرب اله ابراهيم ابيك واله اسحق. الارض التي انت مضطجع عليها اعطيها لك ولنسلك.	13 And there was the LORD standing beside him and saying: "I, the LORD, am the God of your forefather Abraham and the God of Isaac; the land on which you are lying I will give to you and your descendants.
14 ويكون نسلك كتراب الارض وتمتدّ غربا وشرقا وشمالا وجنوبا. ويتبارك فيك وفي نسلك جميع قبائل الارض.	14 These shall be as plentiful as the dust of the earth, and through them you shall spread out east and west, north and south. In you and your descendants all the nations of the earth shall find blessing.
15 وها انا معك واحفظك حيثما تذهب واردك الى هذه الارض. لاني لا اتركك حتى افعل ما كلمتك به	15 Know that I am with you; I will protect you wherever you go, and bring you back to this land. I will never leave you until I have done what I promised you."
16 فاستيقظ يعقوب من نومه وقال حقا ان الرب في هذا المكان وانا لم اعلم.	16 When Jacob awoke from his sleep, he exclaimed, "Truly, the LORD is in this spot, although I did not know it!"
17 وخاف وقال ما ارهب هذا المكان. ما هذا الا بيت الله وهذا باب السماء.	17 In solemn wonder he cried out: "How awesome is this shrine! This is nothing else but an abode of God, and that is the gateway to heaven!"
18 وبكّر يعقوب في الصباح واخذ الحجر الذي وضعه تحت راسه واقامه عمودا وصب زيتا على راسه.	18 Early the next morning Jacob took the stone that he had put under his head, set it up as a memorial stone, and poured oil on top of it.
19 ودعا اسم ذلك المكان بيت ايل. ولكن اسم المدينة اولا كان لوز.	19 He called that site Bethel, whereas the former name of the town had been Luz.
20 ونذر يعقوب نذرا قائلا ان كان الله معي وحفظني في هذا الطريق الذي انا سائر فيه واعطاني خبزا لآكل وثيابا لالبس	20 Jacob then made this vow: "If God remains with me, to protect me on this journey I am making and to give me enough bread to eat and clothing to wear,
21 ورجعت بسلام الى بيت ابي يكون الرب لي الها.	21 and I come back safe to my father's house, the LORD shall be my God.
22 وهذا الحجر الذي اقمته عمودا يكون بيت الله وكل ما تعطيني فاني اعشّره لك	22 This stone that I have set up as a memorial stone shall be God's abode. Of everything you give me, I will faithfully return a tenth part to you."
