Genesis 32
1 And Jacob went on his way, and the agents of God met him.
Jakobho akaendawo nenzira yake, uye vatumwa vaMwari vakasangana naye.
2 And Jacob said when he saw them, This is God's camp. And he called the name of that place Mahanaim.
Jakobho akati achivaona, akati, “Uyu ndiwo musasa waMwari!” Saka akatumidza nzvimbo iyo zita rokuti Mahanaimi.
3 And Jacob sent messengers before him to Esau his brother to the land of Seir, the field of Edom.
Jakobho akatuma nhume mberi kwake kumukoma wake Esau munyika yeSeiri, iyo nyika yeEdhomu.
4 And he commanded them, saying, Thus shall ye say to my lord Esau, Thus says thy servant Jacob, I have sojourned with Laban, and stayed until now.
Akavarayira akati, “Izvi ndizvo zvamunofanira kutaura kuna tenzi wangu Esau kuti: ‘Zvanzi nomuranda wenyu Jakobho, Ndakanga ndichigara naRabhani uye ndakagarako kusvikira zvino.
5 And I have oxen, and donkeys, flocks, and men-servants, and maid-servants. And I have sent to tell my lord, that I may find favor in thy sight.
Ndine mombe nembongoro, makwai nembudzi, varandarume navarandakadzi. Zvino ndiri kutuma shoko iri kuna she wangu, kuti ndiwane nyasha pamberi penyu.’”
6 And the messengers returned to Jacob, saying, We came to thy brother Esau, and moreover he comes to meet thee, and four hundred men with him.
Nhume dzakati dzadzoka kuna Jakobho, dzakati kwaari, “Takaenda kumukoma wenyu Esau, uye ari kuuya zvino kuzosangana nemi, uye ana varume mazana mana.”
7 Then Jacob was greatly afraid and was distressed. And he divided the people that were with him, and the flocks, and the herds, and the camels, into two companies.
Ipapo Jakobho akatya zvikuru uye akatambudzika, akaparadzanisa vanhu vaakanga anavo mumapoka maviri, uye makwai nemombe nengamerawo.
8 And he said, If Esau comes to the one company, and smites it, then the company which is left shall escape.
Akafunga akati, “Kana Esau akasvika akaparadza rimwe boka, boka rasara ringapunyuka.”
9 And Jacob said, O God of my father Abraham, and God of my father Isaac, O Jehovah, who said to me, Return to thy country, and to thy kindred, and I will do thee good,
Ipapo Jakobho akanyengetera akati, “Haiwa Mwari wababa vangu Abhurahama, Mwari wababa vangu Isaka, imi Jehovha makati kwandiri, ‘Dzokera kunyika yokwako nokuhama dzako, uye ndichaita kuti ubudirire,’
10 I am not worthy of the least of all the loving kindnesses, and of all the truth, which thou have shown to thy servant, for with my staff I passed over this Jordan, and now I have become two companies.
ini handina kufanirwa nenyasha dzenyu dzose idzi uye nokutendeka kwamakaratidza muranda wenyu. Ndakanga ndichingova netsvimbo yangu bedzi pandakayambuka Jorodhani urwu, asi zvino ndava mapoka maviri.
11 Deliver me, I pray thee, from the hand of my brother, from the hand of Esau. For I fear him, lest he comes and smites me, the mother with the sons.
Ndinokumbira kuti mundiponese kubva muruoko rwomukoma wangu Esau, nokuti ndinotya kuti achasvika akandiuraya, uyewo madzimai aya navana vavo.
12 And thou said, I will surely do thee good, and make thy seed as the sand of the sea, which cannot be numbered for multitude.
Asi imi makati, ‘Zvirokwazvo ndichaita kuti ubudirire uye kuti zvizvarwa zvako zvive sejecha regungwa, risingagoni kuverengwa.’”
13 And he lodged there that night, and took of that which he had with him a present for Esau his brother:
Akapedza usiku hwose ipapo, uye pane zvaakanga anazvo, akatsaurira mukoma wake Esau chipo chaiti:
14 two hundred she-goats and twenty he-goats, two hundred ewes and twenty rams,
mazana maviri enhunzvi dzemakwai namakumi maviri enhongo dzembudzi, mazana maviri amatunzvi amakwai namakondobwe makumi maviri,
15 thirty milk camels and their colts, forty cows and ten bulls, twenty she-donkeys and ten foals.
ngamera hadzi, makumi matatu navana vadzo, mhou dzemombe makumi mana nehando gumi, mbongoro hadzi makumi maviri uye nehono gumi.
16 And he delivered them into the hand of his servants, every herd by itself, and said to his servants, Pass over before me, and put a space between herd and herd.
Akaita kuti zvichengetwe navaranda vake, boka rimwe nerimwe riri roga, uye akati kuvaranda vake, “Tungamirai mberi kwangu, uye musiye nzvimbo pakati pamapoka.”
17 And he commanded the foremost, saying, When Esau my brother meets thee, and asks thee, saying, Whose are thou? And where do thou go? And whose are these before thee?
Akarayira uya akanga achitungamirira akati, “Mukoma wangu Esau paanosangana nemi uye akakubvunza achiti, ‘Uri waaniko iwe, uye uri kuendepi, uye pfuma yose iri mberi kwako ndeyani?’
18 Then thou shall say, Thy servant Jacob's. It is a present sent to my lord Esau. And, behold, he also is behind us.
ipapo iwe unofanira kupindura uchiti, ‘Ndezvomuranda wenyu Jakobho. Izvi zvipo zvatumirwa kuna she wangu Esau, uye iye ari kutevera mumashure medu.’”
19 And he commanded also the second, and the third, and all who followed the herds, saying, On this manner shall ye speak to Esau when ye find him,
Akarayirawo wechipiri, wechitatu uye navamwe vose vaitevera mapoka achiti, “Munofanira kutaura chinhu chimwe chete kuna Esau pamunosangana naye.
20 and ye shall say, Moreover, behold, thy servant Jacob is behind us. For he said, I will appease him with the present that goes before me, and afterward I will see his face. Perhaps he will accept me.
Uye murangarire kuti, ‘Muranda wenyu Jakobho ari kuuya mumashure medu.’” Nokuti akafunga akati, “Ndamunyaradza nezvipo zvandiri kumutumira mberi; pandinozomuona, zvichida achandigamuchira.”
21 So the present passed over before him, and he himself lodged that night in the company.
Saka chipo chaJakobho chakatungamira mberi kwake, asi iye pachake akavata mumusasa. Nokuti akafunga akati, “Ndichamunyaradza nezvipo zvandiri kutumira mberi; pandinozomuona, zvichida achandigamuchira.”
22 And he rose up that night, and took his two wives, and his two handmaids, and his eleven sons, and passed over the ford of the Jabbok.
Usiku ihwohwo Jakobho akamuka akatora vakadzi vake vaviri, varandakadzi vake navanakomana vake gumi nomumwe vakayambuka pazambuko reJabhoki.
23 And he took them, and sent them over the stream, and sent over that which he had.
Shure kwokuvayambutsa rukova, akayambutsawo zvose zvaakanga anazvo.
24 And Jacob was left alone, and a man wrestled with him until the breaking of the day.
Saka Jakobho akasara ari oga, uye mumwe murume akaita mutsimba naye kusvikira utonga hwatsvuka.
25 And when he saw that he did not prevail against him, he touched the hollow of his thigh, and the hollow of Jacob's thigh was strained as he wrestled with him.
Murume uye paakaona kuti akanga asingagoni kumukunda, akabata pahudyu yaJakobho zvokuti hudyu yakashodogoka paakanga achiita mutsimba nomunhu uyu.
26 And he said, Let me go, for the day breaks. And he said, I will not let thee go unless thou bless me.
Ipapo murume uya akati, “Ndirege ndiende, nokuti utonga hwatsvuka.” Asi Jakobho akapindura akati, “Handingatongokuregei muchienda kusvikira mandiropafadza.”
27 And he said to him, What is thy name? And he said, Jacob.
Murume uya akamubvunza akati, “Zita rako ndianiko?” Jakobho akapindura akati, “Jakobho.”
28 And he said, Thy name shall no more be called Jacob, but Israel, for thou have striven with God and with men, and have prevailed.
Ipapo murume uya akati, “Zita rako harichazonzi Jakobho, asi Israeri, nokuti wakarwa naMwari uye nomunhu ukakunda.”
29 And Jacob asked him, and said, Tell me, I pray thee, thy name. And he said, Why is it that thou ask for my name? And he blessed him there.
Jakobho akati, “Ndapota hangu, ndiudzei zita renyu.” Asi iye akapindura akati, “Seiko uchibvunza zita rangu?” Ipapo akamuropafadza.
30 And Jacob called the name of the place Peniel, for, I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved.
Saka Jakobho akatumidza nzvimbo iyo zita rokuti Penieri, akati, “Nokuti ndaona Mwari chiso nechiso, asi handina kufa.”
31 And the sun rose upon him as he passed over Penuel, and he limped upon his thigh.
Zuva rakakwira pamusoro pake, paakanga opfuura Penieri, uye akanga achikamhina nokuda kwehudyu yake.
32 Therefore the sons of Israel do not eat the sinew of the hip which is upon the hollow of the thigh, to this day, because he touched the hollow of Jacob's thigh in the sinew of the hip.
Naizvozvo kusvikira zuva ranhasi vaIsraeri havadyi runda rakabatanidzwa nehudyu, nokuti hudyu yaJakobho yakanga yakuvadzwa pedyo nerunda.
