1 Y-sác bèn gọi Gia-cốp, chúc phước cho và dặn rằng: Con chớ chọn một người vợ nào hết trong bọn con gái Ca-na-an.

2 Hãy đứng dậy, đi qua xứ Pha-đan-a-ram, tại nhà Bê-tu-ên, ông ngoại con, và cưới ở đó một người vợ trong các con gái của La-ban, là cậu con.

3 Cầu xin Ðức Chúa Trời toàn năng ban phước cho con, làm con sanh sản, thêm nhiều và trở nên một đám dân đông.

4 Cầu xin Ngài ban cho con và dòng dõi con phước lành của Áp-ra-ham, hầu cho xứ con đã kiều ngụ sẽ làm sản nghiệp cho con, tức xứ Ngài đã ban cho Áp-ra-ham!

5 ồi Y-sác sai Gia-cốp đi qua xứ Pha-đan-a-ram, đến nhà La-ban, con trai Bê-tu-ên, vốn người A-ram, lại là anh của ê-bê-ca, mẹ của Gia-cốp và Ê-sau.

6 Ê-sau thấy Y-sác đã chúc phước cho Gia-cốp, và sai đi qua xứ Pha-đan-a-ram đặng cưới vợ; và trong lúc đương chúc phước có dặn rằng: Chớ cưới vợ trong bọn con gái Ca-na-an;

7 lại đã thấy Gia-cốp vâng lời cha me đi qua xứ Pha-đan-a-ram đó,

8 thì biết rằng bọn con gái Ca-na-an không vừa ý Y-sác, cha mình;

9 nên người bèn đi đến nhà Ích-ma-ên (ngoài hai người vợ đã có rồi) cưới thêm nàng Ma-ba-lát, con gái của Ích-ma-ên, cháu nội của Áp-ra-ham và em của Nê-ba-giốt.

10 Gia-cốp từ Bê -e-Sê-ba đi đến Cha-ran,

11 tới một chỗ kia, mặt trời đã khuất, thì qua đêm tại đó. Người lấy một hòn đá làm gối đầu, và nằm ngủ tại đó;

12 bèn chiêm bao thấy một cái thang bắc từ dưới đất, đầu đến tận trời, các thiên sứ của Ðức Chúa Trời đi lên xuống trên thang đó.

13 Nầy, Ðức Giê-hô-va ngự trên đầu thang mà phán rằng: Ta là Ðức Chúa Trời của Áp-ra-ham, tổ phụ ngươi, cùng là Ðức Chúa Trời của Y-sác. Ta sẽ cho ngươi và dòng dõi ngươi đất mà ngươi đương nằm ngủ đây.

14 Dòng dõi ngươi sẽ đông như cát bụi trên mặt đất, tràn ra đến đông tây nam bắc, và các chi họ thế gian sẽ nhờ ngươi và dòng dõi ngươi mà được phước.

15 Nầy, ta ở cùng ngươi, ngươi đi đâu, sẽ theo gìn giữ đó, và đem ngươi về xứ nầy; vì ta không bao giờ bỏ ngươi cho đến khi ta làm xong những điều ta đã hứa cùng ngươi.

16 Gia-cốp thức giấc, nói rằng: Thật Ðức Giê-hô-va hiện có trong nơi đây mà tôi không biết!

17 Người bắt sợ và nói rằng: Chốn nầy đáng kinh khủng thay thật là đền Ðức Chúa Trời, thật là cửa của trời!

18 Người dậy sớm, lấy hòn đá của mình dùng gối đầu, dựng đứng lên làm cây trụ, đổ dầu lên trên chót trụ đó;

19 rồi đặt tên chốn nầy là Bê-tên; còn nguyên khi trước tên thành là Lu-xơ.

20 Gia-cốp bèn khấn vái rằng: Nếu Ðức Chúa Trời ở cùng tôi, gìn giữ tôi trong lúc đi đường, cho bánh ăn, áo mặc,

21 và nếu tôi trở về bình an đến nhà cha tôi, thì Ðức Giê-hô-va sẽ là Ðức Chúa Trời tôi.

22 Hòn đá đã dùng làm trụ đây sẽ là đền Ðức Chúa Trời, Và tôi sẽ nộp lại cho Ngài một phần mười mọi của cải mà Ngài sẽ cho tôi.

Arcana Coelestia＃3667

3667. And God Shaddai will bless thee. That this signifies the temptations of that truth and good through which there is conjunction, is evident from the signification of “God Shaddai,” as being temptations (concerning which signification in what follows); and from the signification of being “blessed,” as being conjunction (see n. 3504, 3514, 3530, 3565, 3584). Inasmuch as by Jacob is now represented the good of truth, as before shown (n. 3659), therefore that good and truth are here meant by “thee.” The reason why “God Shaddai” signifies temptations, is that in ancient times they distinguished the Supreme God (that is, the Lord) by various names, and this in accordance with His attributes, and in accordance with the goods which are from Him, and also in accordance with the truths, the multiplicity of which is a fact that is known to everyone. They who were of the Ancient Church by all these appellations understood only one God, namely, the Lord, whom they called Jehovah; but after the church had declined from good and truth, and at the same time from this wisdom, they began to worship as many gods as there were appellations of the one God; insomuch that every nation, and at last every family, acknowledged one of them for its own god; hence came the many gods of which mention is often made in the Word.

[2] The same thing took place in the family of Terah the father of Abraham, and also in the house of Abraham himself, who worshiped other gods (as may be seen above, n. 1356, 2559), and especially the God Shaddai (n. 1992). That the worship of this God remained in that house, is evident also from these words in Moses:

I appeared unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob, in God Shaddai, but by My name Jehovah I was not known to them (Exodus 6:3).

This is the reason why it was said to Abraham: “I am God Shaddai; walk before Me, and be perfect” (Genesis 17:1); and why it is here said by Isaac to Jacob, “God Shaddai will bless thee.” That this is the case is also clearly evident from what follows in this chapter, in that after the Lord had said to Jacob in a dream, “I am Jehovah the God of Abraham thy father, and the God of Isaac” (verse 13), still Jacob afterwards said, “If God will be with me, and will keep me in this way wherein I walk, and will give me bread to eat and raiment to put on, and I return in peace to my father’s house, then Jehovah shall be to me for God” (verses 20-21); from which it is evident that neither did the house of Jacob acknowledge Jehovah; but that Jacob would acknowledge Him as his God if He would be his benefactor-just as is the case at this day in Christian Gentilism.

[3] But as specifically regards God Shaddai, the Lord had been so called in the Ancient Church with respect to temptations and to blessings and benefits after temptations, as was shown in Second Part (n. 1992). This is the reason why by “God Shaddai” in the internal sense are signified temptations. That by temptations is effected a conjunction of good and truth, see what has already been stated and shown concerning temptations (n. 2819).

Genesis 28

勉強

   

1 Isaac called Jacob, blessed him, and commanded him, "You shall not take a wife of the daughters of Canaan.

2 Arise, go to Paddan Aram, to the house of Bethuel your mother's father. Take a wife from there from the daughters of Laban, your mother's brother.

3 May God Almighty bless you, and make you fruitful, and multiply you, that you may be a company of peoples,

4 and give you the blessing of Abraham, to you, and to your seed with you, that you may inherit the land where you travel, which God gave to Abraham."

5 Isaac sent Jacob away. He went to Paddan Aram to Laban, son of Bethuel the Syrian, Rebekah's brother, Jacob's and Esau's mother.

6 Now Esau saw that Isaac had blessed Jacob and sent him away to Paddan Aram, to take him a wife from there, and that as he blessed him he gave him a command, saying, "You shall not take a wife of the daughters of Canaan,"

7 and that Jacob obeyed his father and his mother, and was gone to Paddan Aram.

8 Esau saw that the daughters of Canaan didn't please Isaac, his father.

9 Esau went to Ishmael, and took, besides the wives that he had, Mahalath the daughter of Ishmael, Abraham's son, the sister of Nebaioth, to be his wife.

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

11 He came to a certain place, and stayed there all night, because the sun had set. He took one of the stones of the place, and put it under his head, and lay down in that place to sleep.

12 He dreamed. Behold, a stairway set upon the earth, and its top reached to heaven. Behold, the angels of God ascending and descending on it.

13 Behold, Yahweh stood above it, and said, "I am Yahweh, the God of Abraham your father, and the God of Isaac. The land whereon you lie, to you will I give it, and to your seed.

14 Your seed will be as the dust of the earth, and you will spread abroad to the west, and to the east, and to the north, and to the south. In you and in your seed will all the families of the earth be blessed.

15 Behold, I am with you, and will keep you, wherever you go, and will bring you again into this land. For I will not leave you, until I have done that which I have spoken of to you."

16 Jacob awakened out of his sleep, and he said, "Surely Yahweh is in this place, and I didn't know it."

17 He was afraid, and said, "How dreadful is this place! This is none other than God's house, and this is the gate of heaven."

18 Jacob rose up early in the morning, and took the stone that he had put under his head, and set it up for a pillar, and poured oil on its top.

19 He called the name of that place Bethel, but the name of the city was Luz at the first.

20 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 clothing to put on,

21 so that I come again to my father's house in peace, and Yahweh will be my God,

22 then this stone, which I have set up for a pillar, will be God's house. Of all that you will give me I will surely give the tenth to you."
