¹A Bôh riekol Jakobovi: Vstaň, iď hore do Bét-ela a bývaj tam a učiň tam oltár silnému Bohu, ktorý sa ti ukázal vtedy, keď si utekal pred Ezavom, svojím bratom.

¹And God saith unto Jacob, `Rise, go up to Bethel, and dwell there, and make there an altar to God, who appeared unto thee in thy fleeing from the face of Esau thy brother.`

²Vtedy povedal Jakob svojmu domu, a všetkým, ktorí boli s ním: Odstráňte cudzích bohov, ktorých máte medzi sebou, a očistite sa a zameňte svoje rúcha,

²And Jacob saith unto his household, and unto all who [are] with him, `Turn aside the gods of the stranger which [are] in your midst, and cleanse yourselves, and change your garments;

³a vstanúc poďme hore do Bét-ela, a učiním tam oltár silnému Bohu, ktorý ma vyslyšal v deň môjho súženia a bol so mnou na ceste, ktorou som išiel.

³and we rise, and go up to Bethel, and I make there an altar to God, who is answering me in the day of my distress, and is with me in the way that I have gone.`

⁴A dali Jakobovi všetkých cudzích bohov, ktorí boli v ich ruke, i náušnice, ktoré mali na svojich ušiach, a Jakob ich zakopal a skryl pod dubom, ktorý bol pri Sicheme.

⁴And they give unto Jacob all the gods of the stranger that [are] in their hand, and the rings that [are] in their ears, and Jacob hideth them under the oak which [is] by Shechem;

⁵A tak sa rušali. A strach Boží bol na mestách, ktoré boly vôkol nich, a nehonili synov Jakobových.

⁵and they journey, and the terror of God is on the cities which [are] round about them, and they have not pursued after the sons of Jacob.

⁶A Jakob prišiel do Lúza, ktoré je v zemi Kanaána, to je Bét-el, on i všetok ľud, ktorý bol s ním.

⁶And Jacob cometh in to Luz which [is] in the land of Canaan (it [is] Bethel), he and all the people who [are] with him,

⁷A vystavili tam oltár a pomenovali to miesto: El-bet-el; lebo tam tam sa mu boli zjavili Bohovia, keď utekal pred svojím bratom.

⁷and he buildeth there an altar, and proclaimeth at the place the God of Bethel: for there had God been revealed unto him, in his fleeing from the face of his brother.

⁸A toho času zomrela Debora, chôva Rebekina, a bola pochovaná pod Bét-elom, pod dubom, a nazval meno toho duba: Allon-bachút.

⁸And Deborah, Rebekah`s nurse, dieth, and she is buried at the lower part of Bethel, under the oak, and he calleth its name `Oak of weeping.`

⁹A Bôh sa zase ukázal Jakobovi, keď prišiel z Pádan-arama, a požehnal ho.

⁹And God appeareth unto Jacob again, in his coming from Padan-Aram, and blesseth him;

¹⁰A Bôh mu povedal: Tvoje meno je Jakob. Nebude sa viacej nazývať tvoje meno Jakob, ale Izrael bude tvoje meno. A tak nazval jeho meno Izrael.

¹⁰and God saith to him, `Thy name [is] Jacob: thy name is no more called Jacob, but Israel is thy name;` and He calleth his name Israel.

¹¹A ešte mu povedal Bôh: Ja som silný Bôh všemohúci. Ploď sa a množ sa! Národ, áno hromada národov bude z teba, i kráľovia pojdú z tvojich bedier.

¹¹And God saith to him, `I [am] God Almighty; be fruitful and multiply, a nation and an assembly of nations is from thee, and kings from thy loins go out;

¹²A zem, ktorú som bol dal Abrahámovi a Izákovi, dám tebe, i tvojmu semenu po tebe dám tú zem.

¹²and the land which I have given to Abraham and to Isaac — to thee I give it, yea to thy seed after thee I give the land.`

¹³Potom odišiel Bôh hore od neho na mieste, na ktorom hovoril s ním.

¹³And God goeth up from him, in the place where He hath spoken with him.

¹⁴A Jakob postavil pamätný stĺp na mieste, na ktorom hovoril s ním, pamätný stĺp kamenný, vylial naň liatu obeť a polial ho na vrchu olejom.

¹⁴And Jacob setteth up a standing pillar in the place where He hath spoken with him, a standing pillar of stone, and he poureth on it an oblation, and he poureth on it oil;

¹⁵A Jakob nazval meno miesta, na ktorom hovoril s ním Bôh: Bét-el.

¹⁵and Jacob calleth the name of the place where God spake with him Bethel.

¹⁶A tak sa rušali z Bét-ela. A bolo ešte nejaký malý kúsok cesty do Efraty, keď porodila Rácheľ, ale mala ťažký pôrod.

¹⁶And they journey from Bethel, and there is yet a kibrath of land before entering Ephratha, and Rachel beareth, and is sharply pained in her bearing;

¹⁷A stalo sa, kým tedy s ťažkosťou rodila, že jej povedala baba: Neboj sa, máš i toto syna.

¹⁷and it cometh to pass, in her being sharply pained in her bearing, that the midwife saith to her, `Fear not, for this also [is] a son for thee.`

¹⁸A stalo sa v tom, keď vychádzala jej duša, lebo zomrela, že nazvala jeho meno Ben-oni; ale jeho otec ho pomenoval Benjamin.

¹⁸And it cometh to pass in the going out of her soul (for she died), that she calleth his name Ben-Oni; and his father called him Benjamin;

¹⁹A tak zomrela Rácheľ a bola pochovaná na ceste do Efraty, to jest Bet-lehem.

¹⁹and Rachel dieth, and is buried in the way to Ephratha, which [is] Bethlehem,

²⁰A Jakob postavil pomník na jej hrob. To je ten náhrobný pomník Ráchelin, ktorý tam stojí až do dnešného dňa.

²⁰and Jacob setteth up a standing pillar over her grave; which [is] the standing pillar of Rachel`s grave unto this day.

²¹A Izrael sa rušal ďalej a roztiahol svoj stán z tamtej strany veže Éder.

²¹And Israel journeyeth, and stretcheth out his tent beyond the tower of Edar;

²²A stalo sa, keď býval Izrael v tej zem, že išiel Rúben a ležal s Bilhou, ženinou svojho otca, a Izrael sa to dopočul. A synov Jakobových bolo dvanásť.

²²and it cometh to pass in Israel`s dwelling in that land, that Reuben goeth, and lieth with Bilhah his father`s concubine; and Israel heareth.

²³Synovia Leini: prvorodený Jakobov Rúben, Simeon, Lévi, Júda, Izachár a Zabulon.

²³And the sons of Jacob are twelve. Sons of Leah: Jacob`s first-born Reuben, and Simeon, and Levi, and Judah, and Issachar, and Zebulun.

²⁴Synovia Ráchelini: Jozef a Benjamin.

²⁴Sons of Rachel: Joseph and Benjamin.

²⁵A synovia Bilhy, dievky Ráchelinej: Dán a Naftali.

²⁵And sons of Bilhah, Rachel`s maid-servant: Dan and Naphtali.

²⁶A synovia Zilfy, dievky Leinej: Gád a Aser. Toto sú synovia Jakobovi, ktorí sa mu narodili v Pádan-arame.

²⁶And sons of Zilpah, Leah`s maid-servant: Gad and Asher. These [are] sons of Jacob, who have been born to him in Padan-Aram.

²⁷A Jakob prišiel k Izákovi, svojmu otcovi, do Mamre, do mesta Arbeho, ktoré je Hebron, kde pohostínil Abrahám a Izák.

²⁷And Jacob cometh unto Isaac his father, at Mamre, the city of Arba (which [is] Hebron), where Abraham and Isaac have sojourned.

²⁸A Izákových dní bolo sto osemdesiat rokov.

²⁸And the days of Isaac are a hundred and eighty years,

²⁹A tak dokonal Izák a zomrel a bol pripojený k svojmu ľudu, starý a sýty dňov, a pochovali ho Ezav a Jakob, jeho synovia.

²⁹and Isaac expireth, and dieth, and is gathered unto his people, aged and satisfied with days; and bury him do Esau and Jacob his sons.
