< Genesis 33 >

1 And Jacob lifted up his eyes and looked, and behold, Esau was coming, and with him four hundred men. And he distributed the children to Leah, and to Rachel, and to the two maidservants:
Yaaqoobis ol jedhee ilaalee kunoo Esaawu namoota dhibba afur wajjin utuu dhufaa jiruu arge; innis Liyaatti, Raahelii fi xomboreewwan lamaanitti ijoollee gargari hire.
2 and he put the maidservants and their children foremost, and Leah and her children after, and Rachel and Joseph hindmost.
Xomboreewwanii fi ijoollee isaanii dura aanse; Liyaa fi ijoollee ishee itti aansee, Raahelii fi Yoosefin immoo dugda duuba buuse.
3 And he passed on before them, and bowed to the earth seven times, until he came near to his brother.
Ofii isaatii immoo isaan dura darbee hamma obboleessa isaa bira gaʼutti yeroo torba lafatti gad jedhee harka fuudhe.
4 And Esau ran to meet him, and embraced him, and fell on his neck, and kissed him; and they wept.
Esaawu garuu Yaaqoobin simachuuf itti fiigee isa hammate; morma isaattis marmee isa dhungate. Isaan lachanuu walitti booʼan.
5 And he lifted up his eyes and saw the women and the children, and said, Who are these with thee? And he said, The children that God has graciously given thy servant.
Esaawus ol jedhee ilaalee dubartootaa fi ijoollee argee, “Warri si wajjin jiran kunneen eenyu?” jedhee gaafate. Yaaqoobis deebise, “Isaan ijoollee Waaqni arjummaadhaan ana garbicha keetiif kennee dha” jedhe.
6 And the maidservants drew near, they and their children, and they bowed.
Xomboreewwanii fi ijoolleen isaanii dhiʼaatanii gad jedhanii harka fuudhan.
7 And Leah also, with her children, drew near, and they bowed. And lastly Joseph drew near, and Rachel, and they bowed.
Itti aansaniis Liyaa fi ijoolleen ishee dhufanii gad jedhanii harka fuudhan. Dhuma irratti immoo Yoosefii fi Raahel dhufanii gad jedhani harka fuudhan.
8 And he said, What [meanest] thou by all the drove which I met? And he said, To find favour in the eyes of my lord.
Esaawu, “Bushaayee fi loon ani argu kun hundi maali?” jedhee gaafate. Yaaqoobis, “Ani fuula kee fuula gooftaa koo duratti fudhatama argachuuf jedhee ti” jedhe.
9 And Esau said, I have enough, my brother; let what thou hast be thine.
Esaawu immoo, “Yaa obboleessa koo ani waan na gaʼu qaba. Ati waan qabdu ofuma keetii hambifadhu” jedheen.
10 And Jacob said, No, I pray thee; if now I have found favour in thine eyes, then receive my gift from my hand; for therefore have I seen thy face, as though I had seen the face of God, and thou hast received me with pleasure.
Yaaqoobis akkana jedhe; “Maaloo akkas miti! Yoo ani fuula kee duratti fudhatama argadhee jiraadhe, kennaa kana na harkaa fudhadhu. Egaa amma ati fuula tolaadhaan na simatteerta; fuula kee arguun anaaf akkuma fuula Waaqaa arguutii.
11 Take, I pray thee, my blessing which has been brought to thee; because God has been gracious to me, and because I have everything. And he urged him, and he took [it].
Sababii Waaqni natti arjoomee anis waan na barbaachisu hunda qabuuf maaloo kennaa ani siif fide kana fudhadhu.” Esaawus waan Yaaqoob cimsee isa kadhateef kennaa sana ni fudhate.
12 And he said, Let us take our journey, and go on, and I will go before thee.
Esaawus, “Kottu karaa keenya itti fufnee haa deemnu; ani si dura nan buʼaa” jedhe.
13 And he said to him, My lord knows that the children are tender, and the suckling sheep and kine are with me; and if they should overdrive them only one day, all the flock would die.
Yaaqoob garuu akkana isaan jedhe; “Akka ijoolleen dadhaboo taʼanii fi akka anis hoolotaa fi saawwan hoosisaniif kunuunsa gochuu qabu ati gooftaan koo ni beekta. Horiin kunneen yoo guyyuma tokkoon jarjarsuudhaan oofaman hundi isaanii ni dhumu.
14 Let my lord, I pray thee, pass on before his servant, and I will drive on at my ease according to the pace of the cattle that is before me, and according to the pace of the children, until I come to my lord, to Seir.
Gooftaan koo garbicha isaa dura darbee haa deemu; ani immoo hamman Seeʼiiritti gooftaa koo qaqqabutti akkuma humna bushaayee fuula koo dura jirutii fi akkuma humna ijoolleetti suuta jedhee nan deema.”
15 And Esau said, Let me now leave with thee [some] of the people that are with me. And he said, What need? Let me find favour in the eyes of my lord.
Esaawus, “Yoos namoota koo keessaa muraasa si biratti nan dhiisa” jedhe. Yaaqoob immoo, “Kun maaliif barbaachisaa? Fuula gooftaa koo duratti fudhatama argachuun qofti na gaʼa” jedhe.
16 And Esau returned that day on his way to Seir.
Esaawus guyyuma sana karaa isaa irra Seeʼiiritti deebiʼe.
17 And Jacob journeyed to Succoth, and built himself a house, and for his cattle he made booths. Therefore the name of the place was called Succoth.
Yaaqoob garuu Sukooti dhaqee achitti ofii isaatiif mana ijaarrate; horii isaatiif immoo daasii ijaare. Kanaafuu iddoon sun Suukooti jedhame.
18 And Jacob came safely [to the] city Shechem, which is in the land of Canaan, when he came from Padan-Aram; and he encamped before the city.
Yaaqoob erga kaaba dhiʼa Phaadaan Arraamiitii deebiʼee booddee nagaan magaalaa Sheekem ishee biyya Kanaʼaan keessaa sana gaʼee fuula magaalattii dura qubate.
19 And he bought the portion of the field where he had spread his tent, of the hand of the sons of Hamor, Shechem's father, for a hundred kesitahs.
Innis lafa dunkaana isaa irra dhaabate sana ilmaan Hamoor irraa meetii dhibbaan bitate; Hamoor immoo abbaa Sheekem.
20 And there he set up an altar, and called it El-Elohe-Israel.
Yaaqoobis achitti iddoo aarsaa ijaaree El Elohee Israaʼel jedhee moggaase.
