1 ISACCO adunque chiamò Giacobbe, e lo benedisse, e gli comandò, e gli disse: Non prender moglie delle figliuole di Canaan.

2 Levati, vattene in Paddan-aram, alla casa di Betuel, padre di tua madre, e prenditi di là moglie, delle figliuole di Labano, fratello di tua madre.

3 E l’Iddio Onnipotente ti benedica, e ti faccia fruttare, e crescere; talchè tu diventi una raunanza di popoli.

4 E ti dia la benedizione di Abrahamo; a te, ed alla tua progenie teco; acciocchè tu possegga il paese dove sei andato peregrinando, il quale Iddio donò ad Abrahamo.

5 Isacco adunque ne mandò Giacobbe; ed egli si ne andò in Paddan-aram, a Labano, figliuolo di Betuel, Sirio, fratello di Rebecca, madre di Giacobbe e di Esaù.

6 Ed Esaù vide che Isacco avea benedetto Giacobbe, e l’avea mandato in Paddan-aram, acciocchè di là si prendesse moglie; e che, benedicendolo, gli avea vietato e detto: Non prender moglie delle figliuole di Canaan;

7 e che Giacobbe avea ubbidito a suo padre ed a sua madre, e se n’era andato in Paddan-aram.

8 Esaù vedeva, oltre a ciò, che le figliuole di Canaan dispiacevano ad Isacco suo padre.

9 Ed egli andò ad Ismaele, e prese per moglie Mahalat, figliuola d’Ismaele, figliuolo di Abrahamo, sorella di Nebaiot; oltre alle sue altre mogli.

10 OR Giacobbe partì di Beerseba, ed andando in Charan,

11 capitò in un certo luogo, e vi stette la notte; perciocchè il sole era già tramontato, e prese delle pietre del luogo, e le pose per suo capezzale; e giacque in quel luogo.

12 E sognò; ed ecco una scala rizzata in terra, la cui cima giungeva al cielo; ed ecco gli angeli di Dio salivano e scendevano per essa.

13 Ed ecco, il Signore stava al disopra di essa. Ed egli disse: Io sono il Signore Iddio di Abrahamo tuo padre, e l’Iddio d’Isacco; io darò a te, ed alla tua progenie, il paese sopra il quale tu giaci.

14 E la tua progenie sarà come la polvere della terra; e tu ti spanderai verso occidente, e verso oriente, e verso settentrione, e verso mezzodì; e tutte le nazioni della terra saranno benedette in te, e nella tua progenie.

15 Ed ecco, io son teco, e ti guarderò dovunque tu andrai, e ti ricondurrò in questo paese; perciocchè io non ti abbandonerò, finchè io abbia fatto ciò che ti ho detto.

16 E quando Giacobbe si fu risvegliato dal suo sonno, disse: Per certo il Signore è in questo luogo, ed io nol sapeva.

17 E temette, e disse: Quanto è spaventevole questo luogo! questo luogo non è altro che la casa di Dio, e questa è la porta del cielo.

18 E Giacobbe si levò la mattina a buon’ora, e prese la pietra, la quale avea posta per suo capezzale, e ne fece un piliere, e versò dell’olio sopra la sommità di essa.

19 E pose nome a quel luogo Betel; conciossiachè prima il nome di quella città fosse Luz.

20 E Giacobbe fece un voto, dicendo: Se Iddio è meco, e mi guarda in questo viaggio che io fo, e mi del pane da mangiare, e de’ vestimenti da vestirmi;

21 e se io ritorno sano e salvo a casa di mio padre, il Signore sarà il mio Dio.

22 E questa pietra, della quale ho fatto un piliere, sarà una casa di Dio, e del tutto io ti darò la decima di tutto quel che tu mi avrai donato.

   


To many Protestant and Evangelical Italians, the Bibles translated by Giovanni Diodati are an important part of their history. Diodati’s first Italian Bible edition was printed in 1607, and his second in 1641. He died in 1649. Throughout the 1800s two editions of Diodati’s text were printed by the British Foreign Bible Society. This is the more recent 1894 edition, translated by Claudiana.

3883. THE GRAND MAN AND CORRESPONDENCE - continued IN THIS SECTION THE CORRESPONDENCE WITH THE HEART AND LUNGS

What the Grand Man is, and what correspondence with it is, has been stated already. The Grand Man consists in heaven in its entirety, which in general is a likeness and image of the Lord. Correspondence is a correspondence of the Lord's Divine with the celestial and spiritual things of heaven, and of those celestial and spiritual things of heaven with natural things in the world, primarily those in man. Thus there exists, by means of heaven or the Grand Man, a correspondence of the Lord's Divine with man and every individual part of him, so much so that man comes into being from that correspondence and is all the time coming into being, that is, is kept in being, from it.

Genesis 29

1 Then Jacob went on his journey, and came to the land of the children of the east.

2 He looked, and behold, a well in the field, and, behold, three flocks of sheep lying there by it. For out of that well they watered the flocks. The stone on the well's mouth was large.

3 There all the flocks were gathered. They rolled the stone from the well's mouth, and watered the sheep, and put the stone again on the well's mouth in its place.

4 Jacob said to them, "My relatives, where are you from?" They said, "We are from Haran."

5 He said to them, "Do you know Laban, the son of Nahor?" They said, "We know him."

6 He said to them, "Is it well with him?" They said, "It is well. See, Rachel, his daughter, is coming with the sheep."

7 He said, "Behold, it is still the middle of the day, not time to gather the livestock together. Water the sheep, and go and feed them."

8 They said, "We can't, until all the flocks are gathered together, and they roll the stone from the well's mouth. Then we water the sheep."

9 While he was yet speaking with them, Rachel came with her father's sheep, for she kept them.

10 It happened, when Jacob saw Rachel the daughter of Laban, his mother's brother, and the sheep of Laban, his mother's brother, that Jacob went near, and rolled the stone from the well's mouth, and watered the flock of Laban his mother's brother.

11 Jacob kissed Rachel, and lifted up his voice, and wept.

12 Jacob told Rachel that he was her father's brother, and that he was Rebekah's son. She ran and told her father.

13 It happened, when Laban heard the news of Jacob, his sister's son, that he ran to meet Jacob, and embraced him, and kissed him, and brought him to his house. Jacob told Laban all these things.

14 Laban said to him, "Surely you are my bone and my flesh." He lived with him for a month.

15 Laban said to Jacob, "Because you are my brother, should you therefore serve me for nothing? Tell me, what will your wages be?"

16 Laban had two daughters. The name of the elder was Leah, and the name of the younger was Rachel.

17 Leah's eyes were weak, but Rachel was beautiful in form and attractive.

18 Jacob loved Rachel. He said, "I will serve you seven years for Rachel, your younger daughter."

19 Laban said, "It is better that I give her to you, than that I should give her to another man. Stay with me."

20 Jacob served seven years for Rachel. They seemed to him but a few days, for the love he had for her.

21 Jacob said to Laban, "Give me my wife, for my days are fulfilled, that I may go in to her."

22 Laban gathered together all the men of the place, and made a feast.

23 It happened in the evening, that he took Leah his daughter, and brought her to him. He went in to her.

24 Laban gave Zilpah his handmaid to his daughter Leah for a handmaid.

25 It happened in the morning that, behold, it was Leah. He said to Laban, "What is this you have done to me? Didn't I serve with you for Rachel? Why then have you deceived me?"

26 Laban said, "It is not done so in our place, to give the younger before the firstborn.

27 Fulfill the week of this one, and we will give you the other also for the service which you will serve with me yet seven other years."

28 Jacob did so, and fulfilled her week. He gave him Rachel his daughter as wife.

29 Laban gave to Rachel his daughter Bilhah, his handmaid, to be her handmaid.

30 He went in also to Rachel, and he loved also Rachel more than Leah, and served with him yet seven other years.

31 Yahweh saw that Leah was hated, and he opened her womb, but Rachel was barren.

32 Leah conceived, and bore a son, and she named him Reuben. For she said, "Because Yahweh has looked at my affliction. For now my husband will love me."

33 She conceived again, and bore a son, and said, "Because Yahweh has heard that I am hated, he has therefore given me this son also." She named him Simeon.

34 She conceived again, and bore a son. Said, "Now this time will my husband be joined to me, because I have borne him three sons." Therefore was his name called Levi.

35 She conceived again, and bore a son. She said, "This time will I praise Yahweh." Therefore she named him Judah. Then she stopped bearing.
