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 said unto Jacob, Arise, go up to Beth-el, and dwell there: and make there an altar unto God, who appeared unto thee when thou fleddest 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,

²Then Jacob said unto his household, and to all that were with him, Put away the foreign gods that are among you, and purify 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 let us arise, and go up to Beth-el; and I will make there an altar unto God, who answered me in the day of my distress, and was with me in the way which I went.

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 gave unto Jacob all the foreign gods which were in their hand, and the rings which were in their ears; and Jacob hid them under the oak which was by Shechem.

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

⁵And they journeyed: and a terror of God was upon the cities that were round about them, and they did not pursue 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.

⁶So Jacob came to Luz, which is in the land of Canaan (the same is Beth-el), he and all the people that were 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 built there an altar, and called the place El-beth-el; because there God was revealed unto him, when he fled 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 died, and she was buried below Beth-el under the oak: and the name of it was called Allon-bacuth.

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

⁹And God appeared unto Jacob again, when he came from Paddan-aram, and blessed 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 said unto him, Thy name is Jacob: thy name shall not be called any more Jacob, but Israel shall be thy name: and he called 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 said unto him, I am God Almighty: be fruitful and multiply; a nation and a company of nations shall be of thee, and kings shall come out of thy loins;

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

¹²and the land which I gave unto Abraham and Isaac, to thee I will give it, and to thy seed after thee will I give the land.

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

¹³And God went up from him in the place where he spake 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 set up a pillar in the place where he spake with him, a pillar of stone: and he poured out a drink-offering thereon, and poured oil thereon.

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

¹⁵And Jacob called the name of the place where God spake with him, Beth-el.

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 journeyed from Beth-el; and there was still some distance to come to Ephrath: and Rachel travailed, and she had hard labor.

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

¹⁷And it came to pass, when she was in hard labor, that the midwife said unto her, Fear not; for now thou shalt have another son.

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 came to pass, as her soul was departing (for she died), that she called his name Ben-oni: but his father called him Benjamin.

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

¹⁹And Rachel died, and was buried in the way to Ephrath (the same is Beth-lehem).

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

²⁰And Jacob set up a pillar upon her grave: the same is the Pillar of Rachel's grave unto this day.

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

²¹And Israel journeyed, and spread his tent beyond the tower of Eder.

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 came to pass, while 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:

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

²³The sons of Leah: Reuben, Jacob's first-born, and Simeon, and Levi, and Judah, and Issachar, and Zebulun;

²⁴Synovia Ráchelini: Jozef a Benjamin.

²⁴the sons of Rachel: Joseph and Benjamin;

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

²⁵and the sons of Bilhah, Rachel's handmaid: Dan and Naphtali;

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

²⁶and the sons of Zilpah, Leah's handmaid: Gad and Asher: these are the sons of Jacob, that were born to him in Paddan-aram.

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

²⁷And Jacob came unto Isaac his father to Mamre, to Kiriath-arba (the same is Hebron), where Abraham and Isaac sojourned.

²⁸A Izákových dní bolo sto osemdesiat rokov.

²⁸And the days of Isaac were a hundred and fourscore 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 gave up the ghost, and died, and was gathered unto his people, old and full of days: and Esau and Jacob his sons buried him.
