Genesis 33
1 Now Jacob looked up and saw Esau coming toward him with four hundred men. So he divided the children among Leah, Rachel, and the two maidservants.
Te vaengah Jakob loh a mik huel tiha sawt hatah Esau neh a taengkah hlang ya lite tarhaa pawk pah. Te dongah camoerhoek te Leah taengah khaw, Rakhel taengah khaw, a imom rhoi taengaha rhek.
2 He put the maidservants and their children in front, Leah and her children next, and Rachel and Joseph at the rear.
Te phoeiah salnurhoek neh amih kah a ca rhoek a lamhma sak tih Leah neh a rhoekloh a hmaithawn. Rakhel neh Joseph te lamhnuklaa khueh.
3 But Jacob himself went on ahead and bowed to the ground seven times as he approached his brother.
Te phoeiah amahte amih hmai la cet tih a maya taeng a pha due diklai la voei rhih bakop.
4 Esau, however, ran to him and embraced him, threw his arms around his neck, and kissed him. And they both wept.
Tedae anihte doe ham Esau yong tih a rhawn ah a kop uh rhoi, mok uh rhoi tih rhap rhoi.
5 When Esau looked up and saw the women and children, he asked, “Who are these with you?” Jacob answered, “These are the children God has graciously given your servant.”
Te vaengah a dan hatah hutarhoek neh camoe rhoek te a hmuh tih, “Nang taengkahrhoek he u rhoek lae?” a tinah dae, “Pathen loh na sal taengah n'rhen nah camoe rhoek ni,” a ti nah.
6 Then the maidservants and their children approached and bowed down.
Te vaengah a salnurhoek neh a ca rhoek te thoeih uh tih bakop uh.
7 Leah and her children also approached and bowed down, and then Joseph and Rachel approached and bowed down.
Te phoeiah Leah neh a carhoek khaw thoeih uh tiha bakop uh vaengah Joseph neh Rakhel khaw thoeih tih bakop rhoi.
8 “What do you mean by sending this whole company to meet me?” asked Esau. “To find favor in your sight, my lord,” Jacob answered.
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.
9 “I already have plenty, my brother,” Esau replied. “Keep what belongs to you.”
Tedae Esau loh, “Ka mana, kamah taengah muep om ta; namah taengkah te namah ham om saeh,” a ti nah.
10 But Jacob insisted, “No, please! If I have found favor in your sight, then receive this gift from my hand. For indeed, I have seen your face, and it is like seeing the face of God, since you have received me favorably.
Jakob loh, “Pawh, na mikhmuh ah mikdaithen la ka tueng mai khaming. Na maelhmai he Pathen maelhmaia hmuh bangla kam hmuh. Kai nan moeithen banghui la ka kut lamkah ka khosaa he lo mai.
11 Please accept my gift that was brought to you, because God has been gracious to me and I have all I need.” So Jacob pressed him until he accepted.
Pathen loh kai n'rhen tih kai hama cungkuema khueh dongah kai kah yoethennah nang taengla kang khuen te doe mai,” a tinah tih amh tea hloep daengaha doe pah.
12 Then Esau said, “Let us be on our way, and I will go ahead of you.”
Te phoeiah, “Ceh, cet uh pawn sih lamtah nang hnuk ah ka lo eh?,” a ti nah.
13 But Jacob replied, “My lord knows that the children are frail, and I must care for sheep and cattle that are nursing their young. If they are driven hard for even a day, all the animals will die.
Tedae Jakob loh, “Ka boeipa camoerhoek te mongkawt uh pueng tih ka taengah boiva neh saelhung cacun khaw om tilana ming. Amihte hnin at ah rhenten kam vai koinih boiva loh boeih duek uh ni.
14 Please let my lord go ahead of his servant. I will continue on slowly, at a comfortable pace for the livestock and children, until I come to my lord at Seir.”
Ka boeipate 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.
15 “Let me leave some of my people with you,” Esau said. But Jacob replied, “Why do that? Let me find favor in the sight of my lord.”
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.
16 So that day Esau started on his way back to Seir,
Te dongah Esau khaw amah tekah khohnin ah amah longpuei ah Seir la bal.
17 but Jacob went on to Succoth, where he built a house for himself and shelters for his livestock; that is why the place was called Succoth.
Tedae Jakob loh Sukkoth la cet tih amah ham ima sak phoeiah a boiva ham pohlipa saii. Te dongah te hmuen mingte Sukkothlaa khue.
18 After Jacob had come from Paddan-aram, he arrived safely at the city of Shechem in the land of Canaan, and he camped just outside the city.
Te phoeiah Jakob loh Paddanaram lamloh hlah uh. Kanaan diklai Shekhem khopuei te sadinglaa pha tih khopuei imdan ah rhaeh.
19 And the plot of ground where he pitched his tent, he purchased from the sons of Hamor, Shechem’s father, for a hundred pieces of silver.
Te vaengah a dap tuk hmuen te Shekhem napa Hamor carhoek kut lamkah khamyairhoek te tangka yakhat neha lai.
20 There he set up an altar and called it El-Elohe-Israel.
Te dongah hmueihtuk pahoia suem tih El Elohim Israel a sui.
