Mui 32
1 Ya: igobe da logoga ahoanoba, a:igele dunu ilia da ema doaga: i.
When, Jacob, had gone on his way, there met him, messengers of God.
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 Jacob said, when he saw them, the camp of God, is this! So 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.
Then did Jacob send messengers before him unto Esau his brother, to the land of Seir, the field 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 say to my lord to Esau, Thus, saith thy servant Jacob, 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, flocks and men-servants, and maid-servants, So I must needs send to tell my lord, that I might 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 unto Jacob, saying, —We came in unto thy brother unto Esau, moreover also he is on his way 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 was Jacob greatly afraid, and in distress. So he divided the people that were with him and the flocks and the herds and the camels into two camps,
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. Should Esau come upon the one camp, and smite it, yet shall the camp that is left 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, —Yahweh, who wast saying unto me, —Return to thy land and to thy kindred that I may deal well with thee:
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 lovingkindnesses and for all the faithfulness, which thou hast done unto thy servant, —For with my staff, passed I over this Jordan, But, now, have I become two camps.
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 out of the hand of my brother out of the hand of Esau, for I, am afraid of him, lest he come in and smite mother as well as sons
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.”
But, thou thyself, saidst, —I will deal well with thee. So will I make thy seed as the sand of the sea, which is not to be counted, 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 tarried there that night, and took of that which came to his hand a present for Esau his brother:
She-goats, two hundred; And he-goats, twenty; Ewes, two hundred; And rams, twenty;
Milch camels, with their colts, thirty; Cows, forty; And bulls, ten; She-asses, twenty; And young he asses ten.
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 gave them into the hand of his Servants, each drove by itself, and said unto his servants—Pass over before me, and, a breathing-space, shall ye put betwixt 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 first one saying: When Esau my brother shall fall in with thee, and shall ask thee, saying Whose art thou? and whither wouldst thou go? and to whom belong 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 shalt thou say, To thy servant Jacob: It is, a present, sent to my lord, to Esau; And behold he himself 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 he commanded the second also, and the third yea all that were going on behind the droves, saying, —According to this word, shall ye speak unto 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: ?”
Then shall ye say, Also, lo! thy servant Jacob is behind us. For he said: I must pacify him with the present that goeth on before me. And, after that, will I see his face: Peradventure he will accept me.
21 E da amo hahawane udigili iasu bisili asunasi. Amalalu e da amo sogebi abula diasuga esalu.
So the present passed over before him, —whereas he himself tarried 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 arose in that night and took his two wives, and his two handmaids, and his eleven sons, —and passed over the ford of Jabbok.
23 E da amo huluane asunasili, ea liligi huluane asunasi.
So he took them, and sent them over the brook, —and sent over that which 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 was left alone, —and there wrestled a man with him, until the uprisings 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 prevailed not against him, he touched the hollow of his thigh, —and the hollow of Jacob’s thigh was put out of joint, 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.”
Then said he—Let me go, for uprisen hath the dawn. And he said: I will not let thee go, except thou have blessed me
27 Dunu da Ya: igobema amane adole ba: i, “Dia dio da nowala: ?” E bu adole i, “Ya: igobe!”
Then he said unto 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.”
Then he said—Not Jacob, shall thy name be called any more, but Israel, —For thou hast contended 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.
Then asked Jacob and said, Do, I pray thee, tell me thy name! And he said—Wherefore now, shouldest thou ask for 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.”
So Jacob called the name of the place Peniel; For I saw God face to face; and my soul was delivered,
31 E da Biniele baligili, eso da heda: i dagoi ba: i. Ea masele momoge dagaiba: le, e da gasuga: igili ahoanu.
And the sun rose on him as soon as he had passed over Penuel, —he, moreover was halting upon his thigh,
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.”)
For this cause, the sons of Israel eat not of the nerve of the large hip-sinew, which is by the hollow of the thigh, until this day, —because he touched the hollow of the thigh of Jacob, in the nerve of the hip-sinew.
