Genesis 35
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Septuagint (Brenton Greek text, with Apocrypha)
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 didst flee from the face of Esau thy brother.'
1Εἶπε δὲ ὁ Θεὸς πρὸς Ἰακὼβ, ἀναστὰς ἀνάβηθι εἰς τὸν τόπον Βαιθὴλ, καὶ οἴκει ἐκεῖ· καὶ ποίησον ἐκεῖ θυσιαστήριον τῷ Θεῷ τῷ ὀφθέντι σοι, ἐν τῷ ἀποδιδράσκειν σε ἀπὸ προσώπου Ἡσαῦ τοῦ ἀδελφοῦ σου.
2Then Jacob said unto his household, and to all that were with him: 'Put away the strange gods that are among you, and purify yourselves, and change your garments;
2Εἶπε δὲ Ἰακὼβ τῷ οἴκῳ αὐτοῦ, καὶ πᾶσι τοῖς μετʼ αὐτοῦ, ἄρατε τοὺς θεοὺς τοὺς ἀλλοτρίους τοὺς μεθʼ ὑμῶν ἐκ μέσου ὑμῶν, καὶ καθαρίσθητε, καὶ ἀλλάξατε τὰς στολὰς ὑμῶν.
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.'
3Καὶ ἀναστάντες ἀναβῶμεν εἰς Βαιθὴλ, καὶ ποιήσωμεν ἐκεῖ θυσιαστήριον τῷ Θεῷ τῷ ἐπακούσαντί μου ἐν ἡμέρᾳ θλίψεως, ὃς ἦν μετʼ ἐμοῦ, καὶ διέσωσέ με ἐν τῇ ὁδῷ, ᾗ ἐπορεύθην.
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 terebinth which was by Shechem.
4Καὶ ἔδωκαν τῷ Ἰακὼβ τοὺς θεοὺς τοὺς ἀλλοτρίους, οἳ ἦσαν ἐν ταῖς χερσὶν αὐτῶν, καὶ τὰ ἐνώτια τὰ ἐν τοῖς ὠσὶν αὐτῶν· καὶ κατέκρυψεν αὐτὰ Ἰακὼβ ὑπὸ τὴν τερέβινθον τὴν ἐν Σηκίμοις· καὶ ἀπώλεσεν αὐτὰ, ἕως τῆς σήμερον ἡμέρας.
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.
5Καὶ ἐξῇρεν Ἰσραὴλ ἐκ Σηκίμων· καὶ ἐγένετο φόβος Θεοῦ ἐπὶ τὰς πόλεις τὰς κύκλῳ αὐτῶν, καὶ οὐ κατεδίωξαν ὀπίσω τῶν υἱῶν Ἰσραήλ.
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.
6Ἦλθε δὲ Ἰακὼβ εἰς Λουζὰ ἥ ἐστιν ἐν γῇ Χαναὰν, ἥ ἐστι Βαιθὴλ, αὐτὸς, καὶ πᾶς ὁ λαὸς, ὃς ἦν μετʼ αὐτοῦ.
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.
7Καὶ ᾠκοδόμησεν ἐκεῖ θυσιαστήριον, καὶ ἐκάλεσε τὸ ὄνομα τοῦ τόπου, Βαιθήλ· ἐκεῖ γὰρ ἐφάνη αὐτῷ ὁ Θεὸς, ἐν τῷ ἀποδιδράσκειν αὐτὸν ἀπὸ προσώπου Ἡσαῦ τοῦ ἀδελφοῦ αὐτοῦ.
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.
8Ἀπέθανε δὲ Δεβόῤῥα, ἡ τρόφος Ῥεβέκκας, καὶ ἐτάφη κατώτερον Βαιθὴλ ὑπὸ τὴν βάλανον· καὶ ἐκάλεσεν Ἰακὼβ τὸ ὄνομα αὐτῆς, βάλανος πένθους.
9And God appeared unto Jacob again, when he came from Paddan-aram, and blessed him.
9Ὤφθη δὲ ὁ Θεὸς τῷ Ἰακὼβ ἔτι ἐν Λουζᾷ, ὅτε παρεγένετο ἐκ Μεσοποταμίας τῆς Συρίας· καὶ εὐλόγησεν αὐτὸν ὁ Θεὸς.
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.
10Καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ ὁ Θεὸς, τὸ ὄνομά σου οὐ κληθήσεται ἔτι Ἰακὼβ, ἀλλʼ Ἰσραὴλ ἔσται τὸ ὄνομά σου· καὶ ἐκάλεσε τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ Ἰσραήλ.
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;
11Εἶπε δὲ αὐτῷ ὁ Θεὸς, ἐγὼ ὁ Θεός σου· αὐξάνου, καὶ πληθύνου· ἔθνη καὶ συναγωγαὶ ἐθνῶν ἔσονται ἐκ σοῦ, καὶ βασιλεῖς ἐκ τῆς ὀσφύος σου ἐξελεύσονται.
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.'
12Καὶ τὴν γῆν, ἣν ἔδωκα Ἁβραὰμ καὶ Ἰσαὰκ, σοὶ δέδωκα αὐτήν· σοὶ ἔσται· καὶ τῷ σπέρματί σου μετὰ σὲ δώσω τῆν γῆν ταύτην.
13And God went up from him in the place where He spoke with him.
13Ἀνέβη δὲ ὁ Θεὸς ἀπʼ αὐτοῦ ἐκ τοῦ τόπου, οὗ ἐλάλησε μετʼ αὐτοῦ.
14And Jacob set up a pillar in the place where He spoke with him, a pillar of stone, and he poured out a drink-offering thereon, and poured oil thereon.
14Καὶ ἔστησεν Ἰακὼβ στήλην ἐν τῷ τόπῳ, ᾧ ἐλάλησε μετʼ αὐτοῦ ὁ Θεὸς, στήλην λιθίνην· καὶ ἔσπεισεν ἐπʼ αὐτὴν σπονδὴν, καὶ ἐπέχεεν ἐπʼ αὐτὴν ἔλαιον.
15And Jacob called the name of the place where God spoke with him, Beth-el.
15Καὶ ἐκάλεσεν Ἰακὼβ τὸ ὄνομα τοῦ τόπου, ἐν ᾧ ἐλάλησε μετʼ αὐτοῦ ἐκεῖ ὁ Θεὸς, Βαιθήλ.
16And they journeyed from Beth-el; and there was still some way to come to Ephrath; and Rachel travailed, and she had hard labour.
16Ἀπάρας δὲ Ἰακὼβ ἐκ Βαιθὴλ, ἔπηξε τὴν σκηνὴν αὐτοῦ ἐπέκεινα τοῦ πύργου Γαδέρ· ἐγένετο δὲ ἡνίκα ἤγγισεν εἰς Χαβραθὰ τοῦ ἐλθεῖν εἰς τὴν Ἐφραθᾶ, ἔτεκε Ῥαχήλ· καὶ ἐδυστόκησεν ἐν τῷ τοκετῷ.
17And it came to pass, when she was in hard labour, that the mid-wife said unto her: 'Fear not; for this also is a son for thee.'
17Ἐγένετο δὲ ἐν τῷ σκληρὼς αὐτὴν τίκτειν, εἶπεν αὐτῇ ἡ μαῖα, θάρσει, καὶ γὰρ οὗτός σοι ἐστὶν υἱός.
18And it came to pass, as her soul was in departing — for she died — that she called his name Ben-oni; but his father called him Benjamin.
18Ἐγένετο δὲ ἐν τῷ ἀφιέναι αὐτὴν τὴν ψυχὴν, ἀπέθνησκε γὰρ, ἐκάλεσε τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ, υἱὸς ὀδύνης μου· ὁ δὲ πατὴρ ἐκάλεσεν τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ, Βενιαμίν.
19And Rachel died, and was buried in the way to Ephrath — the same is Beth-lehem.
19Ἀπέθανε δὲ Ῥαχὴλ, καὶ ἐτάφη ἐν τῇ ὁδῷ τοῦ ἱπποδρόμου Ἐφραθᾶ· αὕτη ἐστὶ Βηθλεέμ.
20And Jacob set up a pillar upon her grave; the same is the pillar of Rachel's grave unto this day.
20Καὶ ἔστησεν Ἰακὼβ στήλην ἐπὶ τοῦ μνημείου αὐτῆς· αὕτη ἐστὶν ἡ στήλη ἐπὶ τοῦ μνημείου Ῥαχὴλ ἕως τῆς ἡμέρας ταύτης.
21And Israel journeyed, and spread his tent beyond Migdal-eder.

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:
22Ἐγένετο δὲ ἡνίκα κατῴκησεν Ἰσραὴλ ἐν τῇ γῇ ἐκείνῃ, ἐπορεύθη Ῥουβὴν, καὶ ἐκοιμήθη μετὰ Βαλλὰς, τῆς παλλακῆς τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ Ἰακώβ· καὶ ἤκουσεν Ἰσραὴλ, καὶ πονηρὸν ἐφάνη ἐναντίον αὐτοῦ. Ἦσαν δὲ οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰακὼβ, δώδεκα.
23the sons of Leah: Reuben, Jacob's first-born, and Simeon, and Levi, and Judah, and Issachar, and Zebulun;
23Υἱοὶ Λείας, πρωτότοκος Ἰακὼβ, Ῥουβὴν, Συμεὼν, Λευὶ, Ἰούδας, Ἰσσάχαρ, Ζαβουλών.
24the sons of Rachel: Joseph and Benjamin;
24Υἱοὶ δὲ Ῥαχὴλ, Ἰωσὴφ, καὶ Βενιαμίν.
25and the sons of Bilhah, Rachel's handmaid: Dan and Naphtali;
25Υἱοὶ δὲ Βαλλᾶς παιδίσκης Ῥαχὴλ, Δαν, καὶ Νεφθαλείμ.
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.
26Υἱοὶ δὲ Ζελφᾶς παιδίσκης Λείας, Γὰδ, καὶ Ἀσήρ· οὗτοι υἱοὶ Ἰακὼβ, οἳ ἐγένοντο αὐτῷ ἐν Μεσοποταμίᾳ τῆς Συρίας.
27And Jacob came unto Isaac his father to Mamre, to Kiriatharba — the same is Hebron — where Abraham and Isaac sojourned.
27Ἦλθε δὲ Ἰακὼβ πρὸς Ἰσαὰκ τὸν πατέρα αὐτοῦ εἰς Μαμβρῆ, εἰς πόλιν τοῦ πεδίου· αὕτη ἐστὶ Χεβρὼν ἐν γῇ Χαναὰν, οὗ παρῴκησεν Ἁβραὰμ καὶ Ἰσαάκ.
28And the days of Isaac were a hundred and fourscore years.
28Ἐγένοντο δὲ αἱ ἡμέραι Ἰσαὰκ, ἃς ἔζησεν, ἔτη ἑκατὸν ὀγδοήκοντα.
29And Isaac expired, and died, and was gathered unto his people, old and full of days; and Esau and Jacob his sons buried him.
29Καὶ ἐκλείπων Ἰσαὰκ ἀπέθανε, καὶ προσετέθη πρὸς τὸ γένος αὐτοῦ πρεσβύτερος καὶ πλήρης ἡμερῶν· καὶ ἔθαψαν αὐτὸν Ἡσαῦ καὶ Ἰακὼβ οἱ υἱοὶ αὐτοῦ.
