Genesis 32
1 Jacob went on his way and some angels of God came to meet him.
Ke Jacob el som liki acn sac, oasr kutu lipufan lun God sonol.
2 When he saw them he said, “This must be God's camp!” He named the place “Two Camps.”
Ke el liyalosyak el fahk, “Acn in aktuktuk se lun God pa inge.” Ke ma inge el sang inen acn sac Mahanaim.
3 He sent messengers on ahead to meet his brother Esau who was living in the region of Seir in the country of Edom.
Jacob el supwala kutu mwet utuk kas lal in som meet lukel nu yorol Esau, tamulel lal in facl Edom.
4 He told them, “This is what you are to say to my lord Esau. Your servant Jacob sends you this message. I've been staying with Laban up till now,
El sap elos in fahk nu sel Esau ouinge: “Nga Jacob, mwet kulansap lom, tukakinyu nu sum, Esau, mwet kacto luk, lah nga tuh som muta yorol Laban, ac nga tuh ikolla pacl in folok luk nwe ke pacl se inge.
5 and I have cattle and donkeys and sheep and goats, and male and female slaves. I've sent these messengers to explain this to you my lord, hoping you'll be pleased to see me.”
Oasr cow, donkey, sheep, ac nani nutik, oayapa mwet kulansap luk mukul ac mutan. Nga supwaot kas luk nu sum, mwet kacto luk, ac finsrak mu in oasr kulang lom nu sik.”
6 The messengers returned to Jacob and told him, “Your brother Esau is coming to meet you with 400 armed men!”
Ke mwet utuk kas inge foloko nu yorol Jacob elos fahk, “Kut tuh som nu yorol Esau tamulel lom, ac el mukuiyak tari in tuku osun nu sum. Oasr mwet angfoko lal welul.”
7 When Jacob heard this, he was absolutely terrified. He split all the people with him, along with the sheep, goats, cattle, and camels, into two groups,
Jacob el sangeng ac fosrnga. El kitalik mwet ma welul ah nu ke u luo, oayapa sheep, nani, cow, ac camel natul uh.
8 saying to himself, “If Esau comes and destroys one group, the other one can get away.”
El nunku sel mu, “Esau el fin tuku ac mweuni u se meet ah, na u se saya ac ku in kaingla.”
9 Jacob prayed, “God of my grandfather Abraham, God of my father Isaac! Lord, you were the one who told me, ‘Return to your own country and your family home, and I will treat you well.’
Na Jacob el pre, “O God lal Abraham papa matu tumuk, ac God lal Isaac papa tumuk, porongeyu! LEUM GOD, kom tuh fahk nu sik mu nga in folokla nu yen sik ac nu yurin mwet luk, ac kom ac fah akwoye ma nukewa nu sik.
10 I don't deserve all the trustworthy love and faithfulness you have shown your servant. I crossed the Jordan years ago with just my walking stick, and now I have two large camps.
Nga kupansuwol nu ke lupan kulang nukewa ac oaru lom su kom akkalemye nu sik, mwet kulansap lom. Ke nga som ah, nga fahsr alukela Infacl Jordan, wangin ma nga us sayen sikal soko, a inge nga foloko wi u luo inge.
11 Please save me from my brother; defend me from Esau! I'm terrified that he's coming to attack me, my wives, and my children.
Nga pre nu sum, ac siyuk kom in moliyula lukel Esau, tamulel luk. Nga sangeng ac sensen mu el ac tuku mweuni kut ac sikikutla nufon, nwe ke mutan ac tulik inge.
12 You yourself told me, ‘I will definitely treat you well. I will make your descendants as numerous as the sand of the seashore—too many to count.’”
Esam lah kom tuh wulema mu kom ac oru ma nukewa in fahsr wo nu sik, ac ase fwilin tulik puspis nutik su wangin mwet ac ku in oakla, mweyen elos ac pukanten oana puk wekof uh.”
13 Jacob stayed the night there. Then he picked out animals as a gift to his brother Esau:
Ouinge, el motulla we ke fong sac, ac el srela mwe lung nu sel Esau, ma lel, liki ma el us welul ah:
14 200 female goats, 20 male goats; 200 ewes, 20 rams;
nani mutan luofoko ac nani mukul longoul, sheep mutan luofoko ac ma mukul longoul,
15 30 female camels with their young, 40 cows, 10 bulls; 20 female donkeys, 10 male donkeys.
camel litop tolngoul ac natu natulos, cow mutan angngaul ac ma mukul singoul, donkey mutan longoul ac ma mukul singoul.
16 He put his servants in charge of each of the separate herds and told them, “Go on ahead of me, and keep a good distance between the herds.”
El kitalik kosro inge nu ke u, ac filiya kais sie mwet kulansap lal in karingin kais sie un kosro. El fahk nu selos, “Fahsrot fahsr meet likiyu, ac oru in oasr masrol ke un kosro nukewa.”
17 He gave these instructions to those with the first herd: “When my brother Esau meets you and asks, ‘Who is your master, and where are you going, and whose are these animals with you?’
El sap nu sin mwet kulansap se ma fahsr oemeet, ac fahk, “Esau, ma lik, el fin sun kom ac siyuk, ‘Su mwet kacto lom uh? Kom ac som nu ya? Ac nutin su kosro ma kom pwen inge?’
18 you are to say to him, ‘Your servant Jacob sends these as a gift to my lord Esau, and he's following us.’”
kom fah topuk, ‘Ma natul Jacob, mwet kulansap lom. El supu nu yorol Esau, leum lal, tuh in sie mwe kite nu sel. Jacob el a fahsru tokosr uh.’”
19 He gave the same instructions to those with the second and third and all the subsequent herds, telling them, “This what you are to say to Esau when he meets you.
El fahk oana inge nu sin el su akluo, aktolu, ac nu selos nukewa saya ma karingin kais sie u in kosro uh. “Pa inge ma kowos ac fahk nu sel Esau ke pacl se kowos ac sonol.
20 You must also tell him, ‘Your servant Jacob is right behind us.’” Jacob said to himself, “Maybe by sending these gifts on ahead Esau won't be angry with me and when I meet him he'll be kind to me.”
Kowos enenu in fahk, ‘Aok, Jacob mwet kulansap lom el a na tokosr uh.’ Jacob el nunku sel sifacna mu, “Nga ac aklungyal ke mwe kite inge, ac ke pacl se nga ac osun nu sel uh, sahp el ac nunak munas nu sik.”
21 So the gifts went on ahead while Jacob spent the night at the camp.
El supwala mwe kite ingan meet lukel, ac el motulla ke nien aktuktuk lal ke fong sac.
22 He got up during the night and took his two wives and the two personal maids and his eleven sons and crossed the Jabbok River at the ford.
In fong sacna, Jacob el tukakek, eis mutan luo kial, mutan kulansap luo kial, ac tulik singoul sie natul, ac fahsr tupalla Infacl Jabbok.
23 After helping them cross he also sent over everything that belonged to him.
Tukun el supwalosla tupalla infacl ah, el oayapa supwala ma nukewa lal,
24 But Jacob stayed there alone. A man came and wrestled with him until dawn.
a el mukena muta. Na mwet se tuku apurak nu sel nwe ke na apkuran in lenelik.
25 When the man realized he couldn't beat Jacob, he hit Jacob's hip socket and put it out of joint as he wrestled with him.
Ke mwet sac liye lah el ac kofla kutangulla, el liksreni tukya fonohl Jacob ac tusrilelik kupasr in fonohl.
26 Then the man said, “Let me go because it's almost dawn.” “I won't let you go unless you bless me,” Jacob replied.
Na mwet sac fahk, “Filiyula ngan som. Akuranna lenelik.” Ac Jacob el fahk, “Nga ac tia filikomla nwe ke na kom akinsewowoyeyula.”
27 “What's your name?” the man asked. “Jacob,” he replied.
Na mwet sac siyuk sel, “Su inem an?” Ac el fahk, “Jacob.”
28 “Jacob will no longer be you name,” said the man. “Instead you will be called Israel, because you fought with God and with men and you won.”
Na mwet sac sifilpa fahk, “Inem ac fah tia sifilpa pangpang Jacob. Kom amei yurin God ac yurin mwet, ac kom kutangla. Ke ma inge inem ac fah pangpang Israel.”
29 “Please tell me your name,” Jacob asked. “Why do you ask me my name?” the man replied. Then he blessed Jacob there.
Jacob el fahk, “Ac kom, su inem an?” Ac mwet sac fahk, “Efu ku kom ke etu inek?” Na el akinsewowoyalla Jacob.
30 Jacob named the place Peniel, saying, “I saw God face to face and I'm still alive!”
Jacob el fahk, “Nga liye na pwaye God ke mutuk, ac nga srakna moul.” Ouinge el sang inen acn sac Peniel.
31 The sun came up as Jacob left Peniel, limping along because of his damaged hip.
Faht ah takak ke Jacob el som liki acn Peniel, ac el fahsr osak mweyen ngal fonohl.
32 (That's why, even today, Israelites don't eat the thigh tendon attached to the hip socket, because that's where the man hit Jacob's hip socket.)
Fwilin tulik natul Israel uh tia kang ikwa ma oan fin kupasr ke fonoh nwe misenge, mweyen acn se inge pa tukyuki kacl Jacob ah.
