Genesis 33
1 Jacob saw Esau in the distance, coming towards him with four hundred men. So he split up the children between Leah, Rachel and the two personal maids.
Jekọb lepụrụ anya nʼihu, hụ Ịsọ ka ọ na-abịa, ya na narị ndị ikom anọ ndị so ya. Nʼihi ya, o kesara ụmụntakịrị ndị ahụ, nʼetiti Lịa, na Rechel na ndị odibo nwanyị ya abụọ.
2 He placed the two personal maids with their children first, then Leah and her children, and Rachel and Joseph last.
O mere ka ndị odibo nwanyị ya abụọ ahụ na ụmụ ha buru ụzọ, Lịa na ụmụ ya esoro nʼazụ, ebe Rechel na Josef nọ nʼazụ azụ.
3 Then Jacob went ahead of them and bowed low to the ground seven times before approaching his brother.
Ma ya onwe ya buru ụzọ na-aga nʼihu ha niile, na-akpọ isiala nye Ịsọ ugboro asaa, tutu ruo mgbe ọ bịarutere nwanne ya nwoke nso.
4 Esau ran over to him and hugged him. He put his arms around his neck and kissed him. The two of them wept.
Ma Ịsọ gbaara ọsọ bịakwute ya, makụọ ya, jikụọ ya aka nʼolu, sutu ya ọnụ. Ha abụọ kwara akwa.
5 Then Esau looked around at the women and children. “Who are these people with you?” he asked. “They are the children God graciously gave your servant,” Jacob replied.
Mgbe Ịsọ lelitere anya hụ ndị inyom ndị a na ụmụntakịrị ndị ahụ. Ọ sịrị, “Ndị ole bụ ndị a gị na ha so?” Jekọb sịrị, “Ha bụ ụmụ Chineke sitere nʼamara ya nye ohu gị.”
6 The personal maids and their children came over and bowed down.
Mgbe ahụ, ndị odibo nwanyị abụọ na ụmụ ha rutere nso, kpọọ isiala.
7 Then Leah and her children came over and bowed down. Lastly Joseph and Rachel came over and bowed down.
Lịa na ụmụ ya bịarutekwara kpọọ isiala, nʼikpeazụ Rechel na Josef bịara kpọọkwa isiala.
8 “What were all the livestock for that I met on the way?” Esau asked. “They're a gift to you my lord so you'd treat me well,” Jacob answered.
Ịsọ sịrị, “Igwe ewu na atụrụ ndị a niile m zutere nʼụzọ, gịnị ka ọ pụtara?” Jekọb zara, “Ha bụ maka ịnata ihuọma nʼaka gị, onyenwe m.”
9 “I have more than enough, my brother! You keep what you have,” said Esau.
Ma Ịsọ sịrị, “Nwanne m nwoke, debere onwe gị ihe i nwere, nʼihi na enwere m akụ hie nne.”
10 “No, please!” Jacob insisted. “If you're happy with me, then please accept the gift I'm giving you. Now I've seen your face again it's like seeing the face of God, and you have welcomed me so kindly!
Jekọb sịrị, “E, biko, ọ bụrụ na m achọtala ihuọma nʼanya gị, nara m onyinye ndị a. Nʼihi na ịhụ gị anya dịka ilekwasị Chineke anya nʼihu, nke ka nke, otu a i ji ihu ọcha nabata m.
11 Please take the gift I've brought to you because God has treated me so well and I have so much.” So Esau accepted it.
Biko nara onyinye ndị ahụ e wetaara gị, nʼihi na Chineke emelara m amara. Enwekwara m ihe ga-ezuru m.” Jekọb kwagidere ya, ọ naara onyinye ndị ahụ.
12 “Let's get on our way,” Esau said. “I'll go ahead of you.”
Mgbe ahụ, Ịsọ sịrị, “Bilienụ ka anyị malite ije ịlaghachi. Aga m esonyere unu.”
13 “My lord can see that the children are weak,” Jacob responded. “Also, the goats, sheep, and cattle are nursing their young, and if I push them too hard, they'll all die.
Ma Jekọb sịrị ya, “Onyenwe m, ị maara na ụmụntakịrị ndị a adịghị ike, aga m ejikwa nwayọọ chịa ụmụ atụrụ ndị a na ehi ndị na-enye ụmụ ha ara. Ọ bụrụ na a chịa ha nʼike nʼime otu ụbọchị, ụmụ anụmanụ ndị a niile ga-anwụ.
14 You go on, my lord, and your servant will come along slowly, walking with the children, and I'll meet you at Seir.”
Ya mere, ka onyenwe m buru ohu ya ụzọ na-aga, ma ka m jiri nwayọọ nwayọọ na-abịa, dịka ike igwe anụ ndị a na ụmụaka ndị a si dị. Tutu ruo mgbe m ga-ezute onyenwe m na Sia.”
15 “Fine, but let me leave some of my men with you,” said Esau. “You're very kind, but there's no need to do that,” Jacob replied.
Ịsọ sịrị, “Ọ bụrụ otu a, ka m hapụrụ gị ụfọdụ ndị a mụ na ha so.” Ma Jekọb sịrị, “Nʼihi gịnị kwanụ? Ka m hụta naanị ihuọma nʼanya onyenwe m.”
16 So Esau started on his way back to Seir that day.
Ịsọ laghachikwara azụ na Sia nʼotu ụbọchị ahụ.
17 But Jacob headed to Succoth, where he built himself a house and shelters for the livestock. That's why the place is called Succoth.
Ma Jekọb na ezinaụlọ ya jere Sukọt, ebe o wuuru onwe ya ụlọ obibi, wuokwara anụ ụlọ ya ụlọ obibi ha. Ọ bụ nke a mere e ji kpọọ ebe ahụ Sukọt.
18 Later Jacob continued his journey from Paddan-aram. He arrived safely at Shechem in the country of Canaan where he camped outside the town.
Mgbe Jekọb si Padan Aram lọghachi, o rutere obodo Shekem nke dị nʼala Kenan nʼudo. O mara ụlọ ikwu ya nʼihu obodo ahụ.
19 He bought the plot of ground where he was camping from the sons of Hamor, the founder of Shechem, for 100 pieces of money.
Ọ zụrụ ala ebe o mara ụlọ ikwu ya nʼaka ụmụ Hamọ, nna Shekem, ọ kwụrụ narị mkpụrụ ọlaọcha maka ala ahụ.
20 He built an altar there and called it El-Elohe-Israel.
Nʼebe ahụ, o wuru ebe ịchụ aja, kpọọ aha ya El Elohe Izrel.
