Genesis 33
1 And Jacob lifted up his eyes, and saw, and behold! Esau his brother coming, and four hundred men with him; and Jacob divided the children to Lea and to Rachel, and the two handmaidens.
Tango Jakobi atombolaki miso na ye, amonaki na mosika Ezawu koya elongo na bato nkama minei. Boye Jakobi akabolaki bana na ye: ndambo epai ya Lea, ndambo epai ya Rasheli mpe ndambo mosusu epai ya basali mibale ya basi.
2 And he put the two handmaidens and their children with the first, and Lea and her children behind, and Rachel and Joseph last.
Atiaki basali ya basi elongo na bana na bango na liboso; Lea mpe bana na ye na sima; mpe Rasheli na Jozefi na suka.
3 But he advanced himself before them, and did reverence to the ground seven times, until he drew near to his brother.
Ye moko alekaki liboso na bango mpe afukamaki na mabele mbala sambo wana azalaki kopusana liboso ya ndeko na ye ya mobali.
4 And Esau ran on to meet him, and embraced him, and fell on his neck, and kissed him; and they both wept.
Ezawu akimaki mbangu mpo na kokutana na ye; ayambaki ye, amibwakaki na nzoto na ye mpo na koyamba ye mpe apesaki ye beze; bongo bakomaki kolela.
5 And Esau looked up and saw the women and the children, and said, What are these to you? And he said, The children with which God has mercifully blessed your servant.
Tango atombolaki miso na ye, amonaki na mosika basi mpe bana. Atunaki: — Banani wana bazali elongo na yo? Jakobi azongisaki: — Ezali bana oyo Nzambe apesi, na bolingo na Ye, epai ya mosali na yo.
6 And the maidservants and their children drew near and did reverence.
Boye, basali ya basi elongo na bana na bango bapusanaki mpe bafukamaki.
7 And Lea and her children drew near and did reverence; and after this drew near Rachel and Joseph, and did reverence.
Na sima, Lea elongo na bana na ye bayaki kofukama. Bongo na suka, Jozefi elongo na Rasheli bayaki mpe kofukama.
8 And he said, What are these things to you, all these companies that I have met? And he said, That your servant might find grace in your sight, my lord.
Ezawu atunaki: — Ngulupa nyonso oyo nakutani na yango, tina na yango nini? Jakobi azongisaki: — Ezali mpo ete nazwa ngolu na miso na yo, nkolo na ngai.
9 And Esau said, I have much, my brother; keep your own.
Kasi Ezawu azongisaki: — Ndeko na ngai, biloko nyonso oyo, nazali na yango ebele; bomba biloko na yo mpo na yo moko.
10 And Jacob said, If I have found grace in your sight, receive the gifts through my hands; therefore have I seen your face, as if any one should see the face of God, and you shall be well-pleased with me.
Jakobi alobaki: — Nabondeli yo: soki nazwi ngolu na miso na yo, ndima kozwa biloko oyo lokola kado kowuta na maboko na ngai; pamba te ndenge namoni yo, ezali lokola namoni Nzambe, mpo ete oyambi ngai na boboto.
11 Receive my blessings, which I have brought you, because God has had mercy on me, and I have all things; and he constrained him, and he took [them].
Nabondeli yo penza, ndima makabo oyo namemeli yo; pamba te Nzambe nde apesaki ngai yango na ngolu na Ye mpe nazali na nyonso. Lokola Jakobi azalaki kaka kotia molende, Ezawu andimaki kozwa yango.
12 And he said, Let us depart, and proceed right onward.
Ezawu alobaki: — Telema tokende, nakotambola na yo nzela moko.
13 And he said to him, My lord knows, that the children are very tender, and the flocks and the herds with me are with young; if then I shall drive them hard one day, all the cattle will die.
Kasi Jakobi azongiselaki ye: — Oh nkolo na ngai! Oyebi malamu ete bana bazwi nanu makasi te, mpe nazali lisusu na bameme, bangombe mpe bantaba ya basi oyo ezali nanu komelisa mabele. Soki tomeki kotambolisa yango mbangu makasi kaka na mokolo moko, bibwele nyonso ekokufa.
14 Let my lord go on before his servant, and I shall have strength on the road according to the ease of the journey before me, and according to the strength of the children, until I come to my lord to Seir.
Boye, tika ete nkolo na ngai akende liboso, wana ngai nakotambola malembe-malembe na sima, kolanda etamboli ya bibwele oyo ezali liboso na ngai, mpe kolanda etamboli ya bana, kino nakokoma epai ya nkolo na ngai, na Seiri.
15 And Esau said, I will leave with you some of the people who are with me. And he said, Why so? it is enough that I have found favour before you, [my] lord.
Ezawu alobaki: — Nabondeli yo, ndima ete natikela yo ndambo ya bato na ngai. Kasi Jakobi atunaki: — Mpo na nini kosala bongo? Tika ete nazwa kaka ngolu na miso ya nkolo na ngai!
16 And Esau returned on that day on his journey to Seir.
Boye, kaka na mokolo wana, Ezawu azwaki nzela mpe azongaki na Seiri.
17 And Jacob departs to his tents; and he made for himself there habitations, and for his cattle he made booths; therefore he called the name of that place, Booths.
Nzokande, Jakobi akendeki na Sukoti. Atongaki kuna ndako mpo na ye moko mpe mpo na bibwele na ye; yango wana babengi esika yango Sukoti.
18 And Jacob came to Salem, a city of Secima, which is in the land of Chanaan, when he departed out of Mesopotamia of Syria, and took up a position in front of the city.
Longwa na mokili ya Padani-Arami, Jakobi akomaki na kimia na engumba Sishemi oyo ezali na mokili ya Kanana; mpe atelemisaki ndako na ye ya kapo liboso ya engumba.
19 And he bought the portion of the field, where he pitched his tent, of Emmor the father of Sychem, for a hundred lambs.
Na motuya ya bibende ya palata nkama moko, asombaki na maboko ya bana mibali ya Amori, tata ya Sishemi, eteni ya mabele epai wapi atongaki ndako na ye ya kapo.
20 And he set up there an altar, and called on the God of Israel.
Atongaki kuna etumbelo moko oyo abengaki: « El, Nzambe ya Isalaele. »
