¹And Isaac called Jacob, and blessed him, and charged him, and said unto him, Thou shalt not take a wife of the daughters of Canaan.

¹A Izák povolal Jakoba a požehnal ho, potom mu prikázal a riekol mu: Nevezmeš si ženy z dcér Kanaánových.

²Arise, go to Padanaram, to the house of Bethuel thy mother's father; and take thee a wife from thence of the daughters of Laban thy mother's brother.

²Zober sa, idi do Pádan-arama, do domu Betuela, otca svojej matky, a odtiaľ si vezmi ženu, z dcér Lábana, brata svojej matky.

³And God Almighty bless thee, and make thee fruitful, and multiply thee, that thou mayest be a multitude of people;

³A silný Bôh všemohúci nech ťa požehná, nech ťa rozplodí a rozmnoží, aby si bol hromadou národov.

⁴And give thee the blessing of Abraham, to thee, and to thy seed with thee; that thou mayest inherit the land wherein thou art a stranger, which God gave unto Abraham.

⁴A nech ti dá požehnanie Abrahámovo, tebe i tvojmu semenu s tebou, aby si dedične dostal zem svojho pohostínstva, ktorú dal Bôh Abrahámovi.

⁵And Isaac sent away Jacob: and he went to Padanaram unto Laban, son of Bethuel the Syrian, the brother of Rebekah, Jacob's and Esau's mother.

⁵A tak poslal Izák Jakoba, a išiel do Pádan-arama k Lábanovi, synovi Betuela Aramejského, bratovi Rebeky, matky Jakobovej a Ezavovej.

⁶When Esau saw that Isaac had blessed Jacob, and sent him away to Padanaram, to take him a wife from thence; and that as he blessed him he gave him a charge, saying, Thou shalt not take a wife of the daughters of Canaan;

⁶A keď videl Ezav, že Izák požehnal Jakoba a poslal ho do Pádan-arama, aby si vzal odtiaľ ženu, keď ho žehnal, a že mu prikázal povediac: Nevezmeš, si ženy z dcér Kanaánových

⁷And that Jacob obeyed his father and his mother, and was gone to Padanaram;

⁷a že Jakob poslúchol svojho otca a svoju matku a išiel do Pádan-arama,

⁸And Esau seeing that the daughters of Canaan pleased not Isaac his father;

⁸a keď tiež videl Ezav, že dcéry Kanaánove sú zlé očiach Izáka, jeho otca,

⁹Then went Esau unto Ishmael, and took unto the wives which he had Mahalath the daughter of Ishmael Abraham's son, the sister of Nebajoth, to be his wife.

⁹odišiel Ezav k Izmaelovi a vzal si Machalatu, dcéru Izmaela, syna Abrahámovho, sestru Nebajotovu, popri svojich ženách za ženu.

¹⁰And Jacob went out from Beersheba, and went toward Haran.

¹⁰A Jakob vyšiel z Bér-šeby a išiel do Chárana.

¹¹And he lighted upon a certain place, and tarried there all night, because the sun was set; and he took of the stones of that place, and put them for his pillows, and lay down in that place to sleep.

¹¹A nadišiel na nejaké miesto a nocoval tam, pretože bolo slnce zapadlo. A vzal z kameňov, ktoré boly na mieste, a položil si pod hlavu a ľahol si na tom mieste spať.

¹²And he dreamed, and behold a ladder set up on the earth, and the top of it reached to heaven: and behold the angels of God ascending and descending on it.

¹²A snívalo sa mu, že hľa, rebrík bol postavený na zem, ktorého vrch dosahoval do neba. A hľa, anjeli Boží vystupovali a sostupovali po ňom.

¹³And, behold, the LORD stood above it, and said, I am the LORD God of Abraham thy father, and the God of Isaac: the land whereon thou liest, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed;

¹³A hľa, Hospodin stál nad ním a riekol: Ja som Hospodin, Bôh Abraháma, tvojho otca, a Bôh Izáka; zem, na ktorej ležíš, dám tebe a tvojmu semenu.

¹⁴And thy seed shall be as the dust of the earth, and thou shalt spread abroad to the west, and to the east, and to the north, and to the south: and in thee and in thy seed shall all the families of the earth be blessed.

¹⁴A tvojho semena bude jako prachu zeme, a rozmôžeš sa na západ, k moru, i na východ, na sever i na juh, a požehnané budú v tebe všetky čeľade zeme a v tvojom semene.

¹⁵And, behold, I am with thee, and will keep thee in all places whither thou goest, and will bring thee again into this land; for I will not leave thee, until I have done that which I have spoken to thee of.

¹⁵A hľa, ja som s tebou a budem ťa chrániť všade kamkoľvek pojdeš, a navrátim ťa do tejto zeme, lebo ťa neopustím, dokiaľ len nevykonám toho, čo som ti hovoril.

¹⁶And Jacob awaked out of his sleep, and he said, Surely the LORD is in this place; and I knew it not.

¹⁶A Jakob sa prebudil zo svojho sna a povedal: Naozaj je Hospodin na tomto mieste, a ja som nevedel o tom!

¹⁷And he was afraid, and said, How dreadful is this place! this is none other but the house of God, and this is the gate of heaven.

¹⁷A bál sa a povedal: Aké strašné je toto miesto! Toto nie je iné ako dom Boží, a toto je brána nebies.

¹⁸And Jacob rose up early in the morning, and took the stone that he had put for his pillows, and set it up for a pillar, and poured oil upon the top of it.

¹⁸A Jakob vstal skoro ráno a vzal kameň, ktorý si bol položil pod hlavu, a postavil ho za pamätný stĺp a na jeho vrch nalial oleja.

¹⁹And he called the name of that place Bethel: but the name of that city was called Luz at the first.

¹⁹A nazval meno toho miesta Bét-el. Ale prv bolo meno toho mesta Lúz.

²⁰And Jacob vowed a vow, saying, If God will be with me, and will keep me in this way that I go, and will give me bread to eat, and raiment to put on,

²⁰Vtedy sľúbil Jakob sľub a povedal: Ak bude Bôh so mnou a bude ma chrániť na tejto ceste, ktorou idem, a dá mi chleba jesť a rúcho odiať sa,

²¹So that I come again to my father's house in peace; then shall the LORD be my God:

²¹a navrátim sa v pokoji do domu svojho otca, bude mi Hospodin Bohom.

²²And this stone, which I have set for a pillar, shall be God's house: and of all that thou shalt give me I will surely give the tenth unto thee.

²²A tento kameň, ktorý som postavil na pamiatku, bude domom Božím. A zo všetkého, čo mi dáš, ó, Bože, dám ti istotne desatinu.
