Mui 32
1 Ya: igobe da logoga ahoanoba, a:igele dunu ilia da ema doaga: i.
And Jacob went on his way; and the angels of God met him.
2 Amo ba: beba: le e amane sia: i, “Amo sogebi da Gode Ea Aligibi Sogebi.” Amaiba: le, e da amo sogebi dio asuli amo Ma: ihana: ime.
And when Jacob saw them he said, This is the camp of God. And he called the name of that place Mahanaim.
3 Ya: igobe da sia: adole iasu dunu, ili da e bisimusa: , Iso amo gousa: musa: asunasi. Iso da Idome sogega esalu.
And Jacob sent messengers before his face to Esau his brother, into the land of Seir, the fields of Edom.
4 Ya: igobe da sia: adole iasu dunu ilima amane olelei, “Isoma amane sia: ma, ‘Na, Ya: igobe, dia nabasu hawa: hamosu dunu da na hina Isoma sia: iaha. Na da La: iba: nema ouesalu, hedolo hame buhagi be wali buhagisa.
And he commanded them, saying, Thus shall ye speak to my lord, to Esau: Thy servant Jacob speaks thus — With Laban have I sojourned and tarried until now;
5 Na da bulamagau, dougi, sibi, goudi, amola udigili hawa: hamosu dunu gagui gala. Na da di hahawane ba: ma: ne dima sia: adole iaha.’”
and I have oxen, and asses, sheep, and bondmen, and bondwomen; and I have sent to tell my lord, that I may find favour in thine eyes.
6 Sia: adole iasu dunu da Ya: igobema bu misini, amane sia: i, “Ninia da dia ola Iso ema doaga: i. E da wali dima doaga: musa: , logoga ahoanebe. E da dunu 400 agoane oule maha.”
And the messengers returned to Jacob, saying, We came to thy brother, to Esau; and he also is coming to meet thee, and four hundred men with him.
7 Ya: igobe da beda: i bagade amola da: i dioi. Ema misi dunu, sibi, goudi, bulamagau, amola ga: mele, e da afafane gilisisu aduna hamoi.
Then Jacob was greatly afraid, and was distressed; and he divided the people that were with him, and the sheep and the cattle and the camels, into two troops.
8 E amane dawa: i, “Iso da na bisili gilisisu amoga doagala: ma: ne masea, - amabela: ? - na eno gilisisu da se mae nabawane hobeama: bela: ?”
And he said, If Esau come to the one troop and smite it, then the other troop which is left shall escape.
9 Amalalu Ya: igobe da amane sia: ne gadoi, “Na aowa A: ibalaha: me amola na ada Aisage, amo elea Gode! Na sia: nabima! Hina Gode, Di da nama na soge amola na fi dunu amoga buhagima: ne sia: noba, Di da na noga: le fidima: ne sia: i.
And Jacob said, God of my father Abraham, and God of my father Isaac, Jehovah, who saidst unto me: Return into thy country and to thy kindred, and I will do thee good,
10 Na hou da wadela: i, be Di da nama asigi hou noga: idafa olelei. Na da dagulu fawane gaguli, Yodane hano degei, be wali na da buhagili, amo gilisisu aduna gaguiwane bu maha.
— I am too small for all the loving-kindness and all the faithfulness that thou hast shewn unto thy servant; for with my staff I passed over this Jordan, and now I am become two troops.
11 Gode! Dia na gaga: ma! Na da na ola Isoba: le bagade beda: i galebe. E da ninima doagala: sa: besa: le amola nini huluane amola uda amola mano wadela: sa: besa: le na da bagade beda: i.
Deliver me, I pray thee, from the hand of my brother, from the hand of Esau; for I fear him, lest he come and smite me, [and] the mother with the children.
12 Di da musa: na logo hahamoma: ne sia: i. Amola nama mano idimu hamedei amo sa: i hano wayabo bagade bega: amo idi defele amo imunu sia: i. Amo mae gogolema.”
And thou saidst, I will certainly deal well with thee, and make thy seed as the sand of the sea, which cannot be numbered for multitude.
13 Amo gasi afae amo sogebi esalu, Ya: igobe da ea lai gebo fi mogili, hahawane udigili iasu Isoma imunusa: dawa: i. E da goudi aseme 200, goudi gawali 20, sibi aseme 200, sibi gawali 20, ga: mele aseme dodo maga: me gala 30, amola ilia mano, bulamagau aseme 40, bulamagau gawali 10, dougi aseme 20 amola gawali 10, amo huluane Isoma imunusa: afafai.
And he lodged there that night; and took of what came to his hand a gift for Esau his brother —
two hundred she-goats, and twenty he-goats; two hundred ewes, and twenty rams;
thirty milch camels with their colts; forty kine, and ten bulls; twenty she-asses, and ten young asses.
16 E da gilisisu afae afae hamone, amo afae afaega hawa: hamosu dunu afae ouligima: ne sia: i. E da amane sia: i, “Nama bisili masa. Gilisisu afae asili, dibi yolesima. Amalalu, gilisisu eno amola eno agoaiwane masa.
And he delivered [them] into the hand of his servants, every drove by itself; and he said to his servants, Go on before me, and put a space between drove and drove.
17 E da bisili ahoasu hawa: hamosu dunu ilima amane sia: i, “Na ola Iso da dima doaga: sea, e da dima, ‘Dia hina da nowala: ? Di da habi ahoa? Lai gebo fi di da amoga fa: no bobogesa. Amo da nowa eala: ?’ amane adole ba: sea,
And he commanded the foremost, saying, When Esau my brother meets thee, and asks thee, saying, Whose art thou, and where goest thou, and whose are these before thee?
18 di agoane adole ima, ‘Amo huluane da dia hawa: hamosu dunu Ya: igobe amo ea: Amo huluane e da ea hina Isoma iaha. Ya: igobe hisu da fa: no maha.’”
— then thou shalt say, Thy servant Jacob's: it is a gift sent to my lord, to Esau. And behold, he also is behind us.
19 Ya: igobe da amo sia: defele gilisisu ouligisu dunu ageyadu amola gilisisu ouligisu dunu osoda amola gilisisu ouligisu huluane ilima amo defele olelei. E amane sia: i, “Dilia Isoma amane sia: ma,
And so commanded he the second, and the third, and all that followed the droves, saying, According to this word shall ye speak to Esau when ye find him.
20 ‘Defea! Dia hawa: hamosu dunu Ya: igobe da ninima gadenene fa: no maha.’” Ya: igobe da agoane dawa: lalu, “Amabela: ? Na da hahawane udigili iasu ema iasea, e da olofosu ba: ma: bela: ? Amasea, e da na gogolema: ne olofoma: bela: ?”
And, moreover, ye shall say, Behold, thy servant Jacob is behind us. For he said, I will propitiate him with the gift that goes before me, and afterwards I will see his face: perhaps he will accept me.
21 E da amo hahawane udigili iasu bisili asunasi. Amalalu e da amo sogebi abula diasuga esalu.
And the gift went over before him; and he himself lodged that night in the camp.
22 Amo gasia, Ya: igobe da wa: legadole, ea uda aduna, ea gidisedagi uda aduna, ea dunu mano gidayale gala, amo huluane Ya: boge Hano degemusa: oule asi.
And he rose up that night, and took his two wives, and his two maidservants, and his eleven sons, and passed over the ford of the Jabbok;
23 E da amo huluane asunasili, ea liligi huluane asunasi.
and he took them and led them over the river, and led over what he had.
24 Be hisu da hame asi. Amalalu, dunu afae da ema misini ema ouga: ne ludui. Ludulalu, gasia huluane mae yolesili, ludui.
And Jacob remained alone; and a man wrestled with him until the rising of the dawn.
25 Ya: igobe da gasa bagadewane ludubiba: le, amo dunu da ema osa: le heda: mu hamedeiwane ba: i. Amaiba: le, e da Ya: igobe ea masele digili ba: beba: le, Ya: igobe ea masele momoge dagai dagoi ba: i.
And when he saw that he did not prevail against him, he touched the joint of his thigh; and the joint of Jacob's thigh was dislocated as he wrestled with him.
26 Amalalu, amo dunu da Ya: igobema amane sia: i, “Nama yolesima! Eso da heda: i dagoi.” Be Ya: igobe da bu adole i, “Di da nama hahawane dogolegele fidimusa: sia: beba: le fawane, na da yolesimu.”
And he said, Let me go, for the dawn ariseth. And he said, I will not let thee go except thou bless me.
27 Dunu da Ya: igobema amane adole ba: i, “Dia dio da nowala: ?” E bu adole i, “Ya: igobe!”
And he said to him, What is thy name? And he said, Jacob.
28 Amalalu amo dunu da amane sia: i, “Defea! Dia dio da wali Ya: igobe hame. Dia dio da wali Isala: ili. Bai di da Godema amola osobo bagade dunuma ouga: ne ludulalu, hasali dagoi.”
And he said, Thy name shall not henceforth be called Jacob, but Israel; for thou hast wrestled with God, and with men, and hast prevailed.
29 Ya: igobe da amane sia: i, “Dia dio nama adoma!” Be E bu adole i, “Dia da abuliba: le Na dio adole ba: sala: ?” Amalalu, e da amogai Ya: igobema hahawane dogolegele lama: ne sia: i.
And Jacob asked and said, Tell [me], I pray thee, thy name. And he said, How is it that thou askest after my name? And he blessed him there.
30 Amaiba: le, Ya: igobe da amo sogebiga Biniele dio asuli. E amane sia: i, “Bai na da Gode Ea odagi ba: i dagoi, be na hame bogoi.”
And Jacob called the name of the place Peniel — For I have seen God face to face, and my life has been preserved.
31 E da Biniele baligili, eso da heda: i dagoi ba: i. Ea masele momoge dagaiba: le, e da gasuga: igili ahoanu.
And as he passed over Peniel, the sun rose upon him; and he limped upon his hip.
32 Amaiba: le, musa: amola wali Isala: ili dunu da masele momoge huluane hame naha. Bai Biniele sogega musa: Gode da Ya: igobe (Isala: ili) amo ea masele momoge dagai. (Isala: ili dawa: loma: ne da ‘E da Godema ludusa.”)
Therefore the children of Israel do not eat of the sinew that is over the joint of the thigh, to this day; because he touched the joint of Jacob's thigh — the sinew.
