And Jacob lifts up his eyes, and looks, and behold, Esau is coming, and with him four hundred men; and he divides the children to Leah, and to Rachel, and to the two maidservants;

and he sets the maidservants and their children first, and Leah and her children behind, and Rachel and Joseph last.
3 Te phoeiah amah te amih hmai la cet tih a maya taeng a pha due diklai la voei rhih bakop.
And he himself passed over before them, and bows himself to the earth seven times, until his drawing near to his brother,
4 Tedae anih te doe ham Esau yong tih a rhawn ah a kop uh rhoi, mok uh rhoi tih rhap rhoi.
and Esau runs to meet him, and embraces him, and falls on his neck, and kisses him, and they weep;
5 Te vaengah a dan hatah huta rhoek neh camoe rhoek te a hmuh tih, “Nang taengkah rhoek he u rhoek lae?” a ti nah dae, “Pathen loh na sal taengah n'rhen nah camoe rhoek ni,” a ti nah.
and he lifts up his eyes, and sees the women and the children, and says, “What [are] these to you?” And he says, “The children with whom God has favored your servant.”
6 Te vaengah a salnu rhoek neh a ca rhoek te thoeih uh tih bakop uh.
And the maidservants draw near, they and their children, and bow themselves;
7 Te phoeiah Leah neh a ca rhoek khaw thoeih uh tih a bakop uh vaengah Joseph neh Rakhel khaw thoeih tih bakop rhoi.
and Leah also draws near, and her children, and they bow themselves; and afterward Joseph has drawn near with Rachel, and they bow themselves.
8 Te dongah Esau loh, “Lambong boeih ka hum he, metlam na om te,” a ti nah. Te dongah, “Ka boeipa mik ah mikdaithen dang ham ni,” a ti nah.
And he says, “What to you [is] all this camp which I have met?” And he says, “To find grace in the eyes of my lord.”
9 Tedae Esau loh, “Ka mana, kamah taengah muep om ta; namah taengkah te namah ham om saeh,” a ti nah.
And Esau says, “I have abundance, my brother, that which you have, let it be for yourself.”

And Jacob says, “No, please, now if I have found grace in your eyes, then you have received my present from my hand, because that I have seen your face, as the seeing of the face of God, and you are pleased with me;
11 Pathen loh kai n'rhen tih kai ham a cungkuem a khueh dongah kai kah yoethennah nang taengla kang khuen te doe mai,” a ti nah tih amh te a hloep daengah a doe pah.
please receive my blessing which is brought to you, because God has favored me, and because I have all [things]”; and he presses on him, and he receives [it],
12 Te phoeiah, “Ceh, cet uh pawn sih lamtah nang hnuk ah ka lo eh?,” a ti nah.
and says, “Let us journey and go on, and I go on before you.”
13 Tedae Jakob loh, “Ka boeipa camoe rhoek te mongkawt uh pueng tih ka taengah boiva neh saelhung cacun khaw om tila na ming. Amih te hnin at ah rhenten kam vai koinih boiva loh boeih duek uh ni.
And he says to him, “My lord knows that the children [are] tender, and the suckling flock and the herd [are] with me; when they have beaten them one day, then all the flock has died.
14 Ka boeipa te a sal hmai ah ana cet mai saeh. Kai tah ka mikhmuh kah bitat dongkah khokan neh, camoe rhoek kah khokan neh, vawlhvawlh kang khool vetih Seir kah ka boeipa taeng hil ka lo eh?,” a ti nah.
Please let my lord pass over before his servant, and I lead on gently, according to the foot of the work which [is] before me, and to the foot of the children, until I come to my lord, to Seir.”
15 Te dongah Esau loh, “Ka pilnam he nang taengah ka khueh mai eh ne,” a ti nah. Tedae, “Balae tih, ka boeipa kah mikhmuh ah mikdaithen ka dang mai mako,” a ti nah.
And Esau says, “Please let me place with you some of the people who [are] with me”; and he said, “Why [is] this? I find grace in the eyes of my lord.”
16 Te dongah Esau khaw amah tekah khohnin ah amah longpuei ah Seir la bal.
And Esau turns back on that day on his way to Seir;
17 Tedae Jakob loh Sukkoth la cet tih amah ham im a sak phoeiah a boiva ham pohlip a saii. Te dongah te hmuen ming te Sukkoth la a khue.
and Jacob has journeyed to Succoth, and builds a house for himself, and has made shelters for his livestock, therefore he has called the name of the place Succoth.
18 Te phoeiah Jakob loh Paddanaram lamloh hlah uh. Kanaan diklai Shekhem khopuei te sading la a pha tih khopuei imdan ah rhaeh.
And Jacob comes safe [to the] city of Shechem, which [is] in the land of Canaan, in his coming from Padan-Aram, and encamps before the city,
19 Te vaengah a dap tuk hmuen te Shekhem napa Hamor ca rhoek kut lamkah khamyai rhoek te tangka yakhat neh a lai.
and he buys the portion of the field where he has stretched out his tent, from the hand of the sons of Hamor, father of Shechem, for one hundred kesitah;
20 Te dongah hmueihtuk pahoi a suem tih El Elohim Israel a sui.
and he sets up there an altar, and proclaims at it God—the God of Israel.
