CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAINSAGRADA BIBLIA
1 About this time, God said to Jacob, “Arise and go up to Bethel, and live there, and make an altar to God, who appeared to you when you fled from your brother Esau.”1 Deus disse a Jacó: "Vamos, sobe a Betel e fica ali, e levanta um altar nesse lugar ao Deus que se manifestou a ti, quando fugias diante de teu irmão Esaú."
2 In truth, Jacob, having called together all his house, said: “Cast away the foreign gods that are in your midst and be cleansed, and also change your garments.2 Jacó disse à sua família e à sua gente: "Tirai do meio de vós os deuses estrangeiros, purificai-vos e mudai vossos vestidos.
3 Arise, and let us go up to Bethel, so that we may make an altar there to God, who heeded me in the day of my tribulation, and who accompanied me on my journey.”3 Vamos subir a Betel, onde levantarei um altar ao Deus que me ouviu no dia de minha aflição, e que esteve comigo durante minha viagem."
4 Therefore, they gave him all the foreign gods which they had, and the earrings which were in their ears. And then he buried them under the terebinth tree, which is beyond the city of Shechem.4 Entregaram a Jacó todos os deuses estrangeiros que tinham, assim como os brincos que traziam nas orelhas, e Jacó enterrou-os debaixo de um terebinto, perto de Siquém.
5 And when they had set out, the terror of God invaded all the surrounding cities, and they dared not pursue them as they withdrew.5 Partindo eles dali, Deus semeou o pânico nas cidades circunvizinhas, de sorte que não perseguiram os filhos de Jacó.
6 And so, Jacob arrived at Luz, which is in the land of Canaan, also named Bethel: he and all the people with him.6 Chegou, portanto, Jacó com toda a sua gente à Luz, na terra de Canaã, hoje Betel.
7 And he built an altar there, and he called the name of that place, ‘House of God.’ For there God appeared to him when he fled from his brother.7 Levantou aí um altar e deu a esse lugar o nome de El-Betel, porque foi aí que Deus lhe aparecera, quando fugia diante de seu irmão.
8 About the same time, Deborah, the nurse of Rebekah, died, and she was buried at the base of Bethel, under an oak tree. And the name of that place was called, ‘Oak of Weeping.’8 Foi então que morreu Débora, ama de Rebeca. E foi ali sepultada, ao pé de Betel, debaixo de um carvalho, ao qual se chamou carvalho dos Prantos.
9 Then God appeared again to Jacob, after he returned from Mesopotamia of Syria, and he blessed him,9 Quando Jacó voltou de Padã-Arã, Deus apareceu-lhe novamente e o abençoou.
10 saying: “You will no longer be called Jacob, for your name shall be Israel.” And he called him Israel,10 "Teu nome, disse-lhe ele, é Jacó. Tu não te chamarás mais assim, mas Israel." E chamou-o Israel.
11 and he said to him: “I am Almighty God: increase and multiply. Tribes and peoples of nations will be from you, and kings will go forth from your loins.11 Deus disse-lhe: "Eu sou o Deus todo-poderoso. Sê fecundo e multiplica-te. De ti nascerão um povo e uma assembléia de povos; e de teus rins sairão reis.
12 And the land that I gave to Abraham and Isaac, I will give to you, and to your offspring after you.”12 A terra que dei a Abraão e a Isaac, eu ta darei e à tua posteridade."
13 And he withdrew from him.13 Depois, Deus retirou-se de junto dele.
14 In truth, he set up a monument of stone, in the place where God had spoken to him, pouring out libations over it, and pouring oil,14 No mesmo lugar onde Deus lhe falou, Jacó erigiu uma estela sobre a qual fez uma libação, e derramou óleo.
15 and he called the name of that place, ‘Bethel.’15 E deu o nome de Betel ao lugar onde Deus lhe tinha falado.
16 Then, departing from there, he arrived in springtime at the land that leads to Ephrath. And there, when Rachel was giving birth,16 E partiram de Betel. Quando estavam a pouca distância de Efrata, Raquel deu à luz, e o seu parto foi penoso.
17 because it was a difficult birth, she began to be in danger. And the midwife said to her, “Do not be afraid, for you will have this son also.”17 Durante as dores do parto, a parteira disse-lhe: "Não temas, porque ainda terás este filho."
18 Then, when her life was departing because of the pain, and death was now imminent, she called the name of her son Benoni, that is, the son of my pain. Yet truly, his father called him Benjamin, that is, the son of the right hand.18 E, estando prestes a render a alma - porque estava já agonizante - ela chamou o filho Benoni; o seu pai, porém, chamou-o Benjamim.
19 And so Rachel died, and she was buried in the way that leads to Ephrath: this place is Bethlehem.19 Raquel expirou e foi sepultada no caminho de Efrata, hoje Belém.
20 And Jacob erected a monument over her sepulcher. This is the monument to Rachel’s tomb, even to the present day.20 Jacó erigiu uma estela sobre seu túmulo; é a estela do túmulo de Raquel, que ainda hoje existe.
21 Departing from there, he pitched his tent beyond the Tower of the Flock.21 Israel partiu e plantou sua tenda além de Migdal-Eder.
22 And when he was living in that region, Reuben went out, and he slept with Bilhah the concubine of his father, which was not such a small matter as to be hidden from him. Now the sons of Jacob were twelve.22 Foi durante sua estada nessa região que Rubem foi dormir com Bala, concubina de seu pai, e Israel soube.
23 The sons of Leah: Reuben the first born, and Simeon, and Levi, and Judah, and Issachar, and Zebulun.23 Os filhos de Jacó foram em número de doze. Filhos de Lia: Rubem, primogênito de Jacó, Simeão, Levi, Judá, Issacar e Zabulon.
24 The sons of Rachel: Joseph and Benjamin.24 Filhos de Raquel: José e Benjamim.
25 The sons of Bilhah, handmaid of Rachel: Dan and Naphtali.25 Filhos de Bala, escrava de Raquel: Dã e Neftali.
26 The sons of Zilpah, handmaid of Leah: Gad and Asher. These are the sons of Jacob, who were born to him in Mesopotamia of Syria.26 Filhos de Zelfa, escrava de Lia: Gad e Aser. Tais são os filhos nascidos a Jacó em Padã-Arã.
27 And then he went to his father Isaac in Mamre, the city of Arba: this place is Hebron, where Abraham and Isaac sojourned.27 Jacó foi para junto de seu pai Isaac em Mambré, em Quiriat-Arbé, hoje Hebron, onde tinham habitado Abraão e Isaac.
28 And the days of Isaac were completed: one hundred and eighty years.28 E todos os dias da vida de Isaac foram cento e oitenta anos.
29 And being consumed by old age, he died. And he was placed with his people, being old and full of days. And his sons, Esau and Jacob, buried him.29 E morreu. A morte reuniu-o aos seus, velho e saciado de dias. Esaú e Jacó, seus filhos, sepultaram-no.
