Nina ng'ombe, punda, na kondoo, wajori na wajakazi. Nimetuma ujumbe huu kwa bwana wangu, ili kwamba nipate kibali mbele zako.”

Mimi sistahili matendo yako yote ya agano la uaminifu na ustahilifu wote uliomfanyia mtumishi wako. Kwa maana nilikuwa na fimbo tu nilipovuka mto huu wa Yordani, na sasa nimekuwa matuo mawili.

Yakobo akatoa maelekezo kwa kundi la pili pia, la tatu, na watu wote walioyafuata makundi ya wanyama. Akasema, mseme vilevile kwa Esau mtakapokutana naye.

Mnapaswa pia kusema, 'mtumwa wako Yakobo pia anakuja nyuma yetu.” Kwani alifikiri, “nitamtuliza Esau kwa zawadi nilizozituma mbele yangu. Kisha baadaye, nitakapomwona, bila shaka atanipokea.”

Yakobo akaamka wakati wa usiku, na akawachukua wakeze, wajakazi wake na wanaye kumi na wawili. Akawawavusha kijito cha Yaboki.

Kwa njia hii akawapeleka kupitia chemichemi pamoja na mali yake yote.

Yakobo akaachwa peke yake, na mtu akashindana naya mpaka alfajiri.
25 Tedae anih te ka na pawh tila a hmuh vaengah Jakob kah a hlit te a koi pah tih anih te a hnueih pangthuem Jakob kah a hlit te voeng nong.
Mtu yule alipoona kwamba hawezi kumshinda, akalipiga paja lake. Paja la Yakobo likatenguka alipokuwa akishindana naye.

Yule mtu akamwuliza, “Jina lako ni nani?” Yakobo akasema, “Yakobo.” Yule mtu akasema,

“Jina lako halitakuwa Yakobo tena, ila Israeli. Kwa kuwa umeshindana na Mungu na wanadamu na umeshinda.”

Yakobo akamwambia, “Tafadhari niambie jina lako.” Akasema, “Kwa nini kuniuliza jina langu?” Kisha akambariki pale.

Yakobo akapaita mahali pale Penieli kwani alisema, “Nimemwona Mungu uso kwa uso, na maisha yangu yamesalimika.”

Jua likatoka wakati Yakobo anaipita Penieli. Alikuwa akichechemea kwa sababu ya paja lake.
32 Te dongah Israel ca rhoek loh a hlit dongkah tharhui thanal te tihnin due ca uh pawh. Jakob kah tharhui thanal ah aka om a hlit te a koi pah coeng.
Ndiyo maana wana wa Israeli hawali kano ya paja iliyopo katika nyonga ya paja, kwa sababu yule mtu aliziumiza hizo kano alipotegua paja la Yakobo.
