Chakruok 33
1 Jakobo notingʼo wangʼe moneno Esau kabiro ka en gi ji mia angʼwen. Kuom mano nopogo nyithindo e kind Lea gi Rael kod jotichne mamon ariyo.
Then Jacob lifted up his eyes and looked, and lo! Esau, coming in, —and with him, four hundred men. So he divided the children—unto Leah and unto Rachel, and unto the two handmaids;
2 Noketo jotichne mamon ariyo kod nyithindgi nyime, kiluwogi gi Lea kod nyithinde, to Rael gi Josef ema noketo chien.
and put the handmaids and their children first, —and Leah and her children next, and Rachel and Joseph next;
3 Jakobo owuon notelo nyimgi mi opodho auma nyadibiriyo e nyim Esau owadgi.
but he himself, passed over before them, and bowed himself to the earth seven times, until he had come near unto his brother.
4 To Esau noringo oromone Jakobo mokwake; nokwako ngʼute kendo onyodhe mine giywak giduto.
Then ran Esau to meet him, and embraced him, and fell on his neck, —and they wept.
5 Eka Esau notingʼo wangʼe malo moneno mon kod nyithindo. Nopenjo niya, “Magi gin ngʼa gini man kodigi?” Jakobo nodwoke niya, “Gin nyithindo ma Nyasaye osemiyo jatichni kuom ngʼwonone.”
Then lifted he up his eyes, and beheld the women and the children, and said What are these to thee? And he said—The children wherewith God hath favoured thy servant,
6 Eka jotichne mamon kod nyithindgi nochopo mopodho auma e nyime.
Then came near the handmaids, they—and their children, —and bowed themselves.
7 Bangʼe Lea kod nyithinde nobiro mopodho auma e nyime. Josef gi Rael bende nochopo mopodho auma e nyime.
Then came near Leah also with her children, —and they bowed themselves. And afterwards, came near Joseph with Rachel, and they bowed themselves,
8 Esau nopenjo niya, “Kweth maduongʼ mane aromogo cha tiendgi angʼo?” Jakobo nodwoke niya, “Ne aorogi mondo gibi gi kwana ngʼwono kuom ruodha.”
Then said he, What to thee is all this camp, which I have fallen in with? And he said, —To find favour in the eyes of my lord.
9 To Esau nowacho niya, “An gi gik mathoth owadwa. Magi-gi bedgo abeda.”
Then said Esau, I have an abundance, —my brother, be thine what thou hast!
10 Jakobo nowachone, “Ooyo, asayi! Ka isengʼwonona to yie ikaw michgi. Nikech neno wangʼi chalo mana gi neno wangʼ Nyasaye, ka koro iserwaka gi ngʼwono kama.
Then said Jacob, Nay, I pray thee, if, I pray thee, I have found favour in thine eyes, then thou wilt take my present at my hand, —For on this account, hath my seeing thy face been like seeing the face of God in that thou wast well-pleased with me.
11 Asayi kaw mich manokelnigo, nikech Nyasaye osebedona mangʼwon kendo an gi gik moko duto madwaro.” Nikech Jakobo noramo, Esau nokawo.
Take, I pray thee my blessing which hath been brought in to thee, because God hath shewed me favour and because I have everything. So he was urgent with him and he took it.
12 Bangʼ mano Esau nowacho ne Jakobo niya, “Waikreuru mondo wadhi kanyakla.”
Then he said, Let us break up and go, and let me go on before thee.
13 To Jakobo nodwoke niya, “Ruodha, ingʼeyo ni nyithindogi pod tindo to bende nyaka wapar nyithi rombe kod nyiroye ma pod dhoth. Kaponi osembgi matek odiechiengʼ achiel to jamni duto nyalo tho.
And he said unto him, My lord, is taking note, that, the children are tender, —and the flocks and the herds are giving suck with me, —and, should I overdrive them a single day, then would all the flocks die.
14 Kuom mano ruodha akwayi ni tel e nyim misumbani, to aluwi mos mos gi nyithindo kod jamni nyaka achop iri Seir.”
Let my lord, I pray thee pass over before his servant, and let, me, lead on in my own easy way, at the pace of the cattle that are before me, and at the pace of the children, until that I come in unto my lord, towards Seir.
15 Eka Esau nowachone niya, “We awe joga moko kodi ka.” Jakobo nopenje niya, “Angʼo momiyo idwaro timo kamano? Mad iyiena ayieya ayud ngʼwono e nyim ruodha.”
Then said Esau: Let me leave, I pray thee, along with thee, some of the people who are with me! And he said—Why so? let me find favour in the eyes of my lord!
16 Kuom mano odiechiengʼno Esau nochako wuodhe ka odok Seir.
So Esau returned, that day, to his journey towards Mount Seir.
17 Kata kamano Jakobo nodhi Sukoth, kama nogeroe dalane kendo oloso dipo ne kweth mage mag jamni. Mano ema omiyo iluongo kanyo ni Sukoth (tiende ni abilni).
But, Jacob, brake up towards Succoth, and built for himself a house, for his cattle, made he places of shelter, for which cause, the name of the place was called, Succoth.
18 Bangʼ ka Jakobo nosea Padan Aram, nochopo maber e dala maduongʼ mar Shekem manie piny Kanaan kendo nodak momanyore gi dalano.
And Jacob came in peace to the city of Shechem, which is in the land of Canaan, —when he came in from Padan-aram, —and he encamped before the city.
19 Lowo mano gedoe nongʼiewo kuom yawuot Hamor ma wuon Shekem gi fedha madirom mia achiel.
And he bought the portion of the field where he had spread out his tent, at the hand of the sons of Hamor, father of Shechem, —for a hundred kesitahs.
20 Kanyo ema nogeroe kendo mar misango kendo nochake ni El-Elohe-Israel (tiende ni Nyasaye ma Nyasach Israel).
And he set up there an altar, —and called it, El-elohe-Israel.
