Genesis 32
1 And Jacob went on his way; and the angels of God met him.
Jakobo nodhi nyime gi wuodhe, kendo malaike mag Nyasaye noromo kode.
2 And when Jacob saw them he said, This is the camp of God. And he called the name of that place Mahanaim.
Kane Jakobo onenogi, nowacho niya, “Ma en kambi mar Nyasaye!” Kuom mano nochako kanyo ni Mahanaim (tiende ni kembni ariyo).
3 And Jacob sent messengers before his face to Esau his brother, into the land of Seir, the fields of Edom.
Jakobo nooro joote nyime ir owadgi Esau e piny Seir, gwengʼ mar Edom.
4 And he commanded them, saying, Thus shall ye speak to my lord, to Esau: Thy servant Jacob speaks thus — With Laban have I sojourned and tarried until now;
Jakobo nomiyogi chik niya, “Ma e gima onego udhi uwach ne ruodha Esau: Misumbani Jakobo wacho ni, ‘Asebedo ka adak gi Laban kendo asebedo kuno nyaka chil kawuono.
5 and I have oxen, and asses, sheep, and bondmen, and bondwomen; and I have sent to tell my lord, that I may find favour in thine eyes.
An kod dhok kod punde, rombe gi diek, jotich machwo kod jotich mamon. Omiyo koro aoro oteni ne ruodha, mondo ayud ngʼwono e wangʼe.’”
6 And the messengers returned to Jacob, saying, We came to thy brother, to Esau; and he also is coming to meet thee, and four hundred men with him.
Kane jootego odwogo ir Jakobo negiwachone niya, “Ne wadhi ir owadu Esau kendo koro obiro mondo orom kodi, to ji mia angʼwen bende ni kode.”
7 Then Jacob was greatly afraid, and was distressed; and he divided the people that were with him, and the sheep and the cattle and the camels, into two troops.
Kane Jakobo owinjo mano luoro kod kibaji nogoye mangʼeny mi nopogo jambe, gi dhoge kod ngamia e migepe ariyo.
8 And he said, If Esau come to the one troop and smite it, then the other troop which is left shall escape.
Noparo e chunye niya, “Ka Esau omonjo migawo achiel, to migawo machielo modongʼ nyalo tony.”
9 And Jacob said, God of my father Abraham, and God of my father Isaac, Jehovah, who saidst unto me: Return into thy country and to thy kindred, and I will do thee good,
Eka Jakobo nolamo kawacho niya, “Yaye Nyasach kwara Ibrahim, Nyasach wuora Isaka, Jehova Nyasaye mane owachona ni, ‘Dogi thuru ir jou, kendo abiro miyo inyaa,’
10 — I am too small for all the loving-kindness and all the faithfulness that thou hast shewn unto thy servant; for with my staff I passed over this Jordan, and now I am become two troops.
ok awinjora gi kech kod adieragi duto misenyiso jatichni. Ne an mana gi ludha kende kane angʼado aora Jordan, to koro aseduogo gi ogendini ariyo.
11 Deliver me, I pray thee, from the hand of my brother, from the hand of Esau; for I fear him, lest he come and smite me, [and] the mother with the children.
Alamo ni mondo iresa e lwet owadwa Esau nikech aluor ni obiro biro ma omonja kaachiel gi mon kod nyithindgi.
12 And thou saidst, I will certainly deal well with thee, and make thy seed as the sand of the sea, which cannot be numbered for multitude.
To isewachona ni, ‘Adier abiro miyo inyaa kendo abiro miyo nyikwayi bedo mathoth ka kuoyo man e dho nam, ma ok nyal kwan.’”
13 And he lodged there that night; and took of what came to his hand a gift for Esau his brother —
Jakobo nonindo kanyo, kendo kuom gik mane en-go ne oyiero mich ne owadgi Esau kaka:
14 two hundred she-goats, and twenty he-goats; two hundred ewes, and twenty rams;
Diek mamon mia ariyo kod nywogi piero ariyo, rombe mamon mia ariyo gi imbe piero ariyo,
15 thirty milch camels with their colts; forty kine, and ten bulls; twenty she-asses, and ten young asses.
ngamia mamon piero adek gi nyithindgi, dhok mamon piero angʼwen kod rwedhi apar, kod punde mamon piero ariyo kod punde machwo apar.
16 And he delivered [them] into the hand of his servants, every drove by itself; and he said to his servants, Go on before me, and put a space between drove and drove.
Noketogi e lwet jotichne ka moro ka moro otelone kweth ka kweth kendo nowachonegi niya, “Teluru nyima kuweyo thuolo e kind kweth ka kweth.”
17 And he commanded the foremost, saying, When Esau my brother meets thee, and asks thee, saying, Whose art thou, and where goest thou, and whose are these before thee?
Nomiyo ngʼat mane otelo chik niya, “Ka owadwa Esau oromo kodi mopenji ni, ‘In jatich ngʼa, to idhi kanye kendo ni jamni duto misembogi gin mag ngʼa?’
18 — then thou shalt say, Thy servant Jacob's: it is a gift sent to my lord, to Esau. And behold, he also is behind us.
Eka iwachne ni, ‘Magi gin mag jatichni Jakobo. Gin mich ma oor ne ruodha Esau, Jakobo bende biro bangʼwa.’”
19 And so commanded he the second, and the third, and all that followed the droves, saying, According to this word shall ye speak to Esau when ye find him.
Bende nomiyo ngʼat mar ariyo, gi ngʼat mar adek kod jogo duto mane luwo bangʼ kweth chik niya, “Un duto wachuru ne Esau mana gima chalre kuromo kode.
20 And, moreover, ye shall say, Behold, thy servant Jacob is behind us. For he said, I will propitiate him with the gift that goes before me, and afterwards I will see his face: perhaps he will accept me.
Kendo une ni uwacho ni, ‘Jatichni Jakobo biro bangʼwa.’” Nikech noparo niya, “Obiro hoye gi mich ma ooroneni kendo ka oneno to ponono obiro rwaka.”
21 And the gift went over before him; and he himself lodged that night in the camp.
Kuom mano mich Jakobo noter motelo, ka en to nodongʼ ei kambi.
22 And he rose up that night, and took his two wives, and his two maidservants, and his eleven sons, and passed over the ford of the Jabbok;
Otienono Jakobo nochungʼ mokawo monde ariyo, jotichne mamon ariyo kod yawuote apar gachiel kendo negikadho aora mar Jabok.
23 and he took them and led them over the river, and led over what he had.
Jakobo nokawo joge kaachiel gi gige mi nokowogi nyaka loka aora Jabok.
24 And Jacob remained alone; and a man wrestled with him until the rising of the dawn.
Bangʼ mano Jakobo nodongʼ kende, kendo ngʼato noi kode otieno duto nyaka okinyi.
25 And when he saw that he did not prevail against him, he touched the joint of his thigh; and the joint of Jacob's thigh was dislocated as he wrestled with him.
Kane ngʼatno oneno ni ok onyal goye piny, nomulo fuoni mar bamne, kuom mano chieke nowil.
26 And he said, Let me go, for the dawn ariseth. And he said, I will not let thee go except thou bless me.
Ngʼatno nowacho niya, “We adhi, nikech en odiechiengʼ.” To Jakobo nodwoke niya, “Ok abi weyi idhi nyaka igwedha.”
27 And he said to him, What is thy name? And he said, Jacob.
Ngʼatno nopenje niya, “Nyingi ngʼa?” Nodwoke niya, “Jakobo.”
28 And he said, Thy name shall not henceforth be called Jacob, but Israel; for thou hast wrestled with God, and with men, and hast prevailed.
Eka ngʼatno nowacho niya, “Nyingi ok nochak oluongi ni Jakobo, to noluongi ni Israel nikech ise ii gi Nyasaye kod ji mi iseloyo.”
29 And Jacob asked and said, Tell [me], I pray thee, thy name. And he said, How is it that thou askest after my name? And he blessed him there.
Jakobo nowachone niya, “Asayi nyisa nyingi.” To nodwoko Jakobo niya, “Angʼo momiyo ipenjo nyinga?” Eka nogwedho Jakobo kanyo.
30 And Jacob called the name of the place Peniel — For I have seen God face to face, and my life has been preserved.
Kuom mano Jakobo nochako kanyo ni Peniel (tiende ni wangʼ Nyasaye) kowacho niya, “Nikech aseneno Nyasaye wangʼ gi wangʼ kendo ngimana oresi.”
31 And as he passed over Peniel, the sun rose upon him; and he limped upon his hip.
Chiengʼ notuchne ka okadho Peniel kendo nowuotho kolingʼo nikech bamne nowil.
32 Therefore the children of Israel do not eat of the sinew that is over the joint of the thigh, to this day; because he touched the joint of Jacob's thigh — the sinew.
Mano emomiyo nyaka kawuono jo-Israel ok cham ringʼo moriwo fuond bam ka giparogo wil mar fuond bam Jakobo.
