< Genesis 32 >
1 Nowe Iaakob went forth on his iourney and the Angels of God met him.
Ary Jakoba nizotra tamin’ ny lalan-kalehany, dia nisy anjelin’ Andriamanitra nitsena azy.
2 And when Iaakob saw them, he said, This is Gods hoste, and called the name of the same place Mahanaim.
Ary hoy Jakoba, raha nahita ireo: Tobin’ Andriamanitra ity; ary ny anaran’ izany tany izany nataony hoe Mahanaima.
3 Then Iaakob sent messengers before him to Esau his brother, vnto the land of Seir into the countrey of Edom:
Ary nandefa iraka Jakoba hialoha azy ho any amin’ i Esao rahalahiny, ho any Seïra, tanin’ i Edoma.
4 To whom he gaue commandement, saying, Thus shall ye speake to my lorde Esau: thy seruant Iaakob sayeth thus, I haue bene a stranger with Laban, and taried vnto this time.
Ary nanome teny azy izy ka nanao hoe: Izao no holazainareo amin’ i Esao tompoko: Izao no tenin’ i Jakoba mpanomponao: Efa nivahiny tany amin’ i Labana aho ka nitoetra tany mandraka ankehitriny;
5 I haue beeues also and Asses, sheepe, and men seruantes, and women seruantes, and haue sent to shew my lord, that I may find grace in thy sight.
ary manana omby sy boriky sy ondry aman’ osy ary andevolahy aho; dia efa mba naniraka hanambara aminao tompokolahy ihany aho mba hahitako fitia eo imasonao.
6 So ye messengers came againe to Iaakob, saying, We came vnto thy brother Esau, and hee also commeth against thee and foure hundreth men with him.
Dia niverina tany amin’ i Jakoba ny iraka ka nanao hoe: Tafahaona tamin’ i Esao rahalahinao izahay, ary izy koa dia avy hitsena anao mitondra olona efa-jato lahy.
7 Then Iaakob was greatly afraid, and was sore troubled, and deuided the people that was with him, and the sheepe, and the beeues, and the camels into two companies.
Dia natahotra indrindra Jakoba ka poritra dia poritra; dia nozarainy roa toko ny olona izay nomba azy mbamin’ ny ondry aman’ osy sy ny omby ary ny rameva;
8 For he said, If Esau come to ye one company and smite it, the other companie shall escape.
fa hoy izy: Raha tafahaona amin’ ny antokony anankiray Esao ka mamely azy, dia handositra kosa ny antokony anankiray.
9 Moreouer Iaakob said, O God of my father Abraham, and God of my father Izhak: Lord, which saydest vnto me, Returne vnto thy coutrey and to thy kinred, and I will do thee good,
Ary hoy Jakoba: E Andriamanitr’ i Abrahama raiko, sady Andriamanitr’ Isaka raiko, dia Jehovah Izay efa nanao tamiko hoe: Modia any amin’ ny taninao sy any amin’ ny havanao dia hanao soa aminao Aho;
10 I am not worthy of the least of all the mercies, and al the trueth, which thou hast shewed vnto thy seruant: for with my staffe came I ouer this Iorden, and now haue I gotte two bads.
tsy mendrika ho nahazo na kely akory aza aho tamin’ ny famindram-po rehetra sy ny fahamarinana rehetra, izay nataonao tamiko mpanomponao; fa tsy nitondra na inona na inona afa-tsy ny tehiko ihany aho fony nita ity Jordana ity; nefa ankehitriny efa tonga toby roa aho.
11 I pray thee, Deliuer me from the hande of my brother, from the hande of Esau: for I feare him, least he will come and smite me, and the mother vpon the children.
O vonjeo aho amin’ ny tanan’ ny rahalahiko, dia amin’ ny tànan’ i Esao; fa matahotra azy aho, fandrao avy mamely ahy mbamin’ ny vadiko aman-janako izy.
12 For thou saydest; I will surely doe thee good, and make thy seede as the sande of the sea, which can not be nombred for multitude.
Fa Hianao efa nanao hoe: Hanisy soa anao tokoa Aho, ka hataoko maro ny taranakao ho tahaka ny fasika any an-dranomasina, izay tsy azo isaina noho ny hamaroany.
13 And he taryed there the same night, and tooke of that which came to had, a present for Esau his brother:
Dia nitoetra teo izy tamin’ iny alina iny; ary naka tamin’ izay teo an-tànany izy mba hampanaterina ho an’ i Esao rahalahiny,
14 Two hundreth shee goates and twenty hee goates, two hundreth ewes and twentie rammes:
dia osivavy roan-jato sy osilahy roa-polo, ondrivavy roan-jato sy ondrilahy roa-polo
15 Thirtie mylche camels with their coltes, fourtie kine, and ten bullockes, twentie she asses and ten foles.
ary rameva telo-polo ampianahany, vantotr’ ombivavy efa-polo sy vantotr’ ombilahy folo, borikivavy roa-polo ary zana-boriky folo.
16 So he deliuered them into the hande of his seruants, euery droue by themselues, and saide vnto his seruants, Passe before me, and put a space betweene droue and droue.
Dia natolony teo an-tànan’ ny mpanompony ireny, mitokantokana isan-toko; ary hoy izy tamin’ ny mpanompony: Mandehana eo alohako, ary asio elanelany eo amin’ ny isan-toko.
17 And he commanded the formost, saying, If Esau my brother meete thee, and aske thee, saying, Whose seruant art thou? And whither goest thou? And whose are these before thee?
Dia nanome teny ny voalohany izy ka nanao hoe: Raha mifanena aminao Esao rahalahiko ka manontany anao hoe: An’ iza ianao? ary hankaiza moa? ary an’ iza ireo alohanao?
18 Then thou shalt say, They be thy seruant Iaakobs: it is a present sent vnto my lord Esau: and beholde, he him selfe also is behinde vs.
dia lazaonao hoe: An’ i Jakoba mpanomponao ireo, dia zavatra nampanaterina ho an’ itompokolahy Esao; ary indro koa izy ao aorianay ao.
19 So likewise commanded he the seconde and the thirde, and all that followed the droues, saying, After this maner, ye shall speake vnto Esau, when ye finde him.
Ary nanome teny ny faharoa sy ny fahatelo koa izy, ary izay rehetra nandeha nanaraka ny isan-toko, ka nanao hoe: Araka izany teny izany no lazaonareo amin’ i Esao, raha hitanareo izy.
20 And ye shall say moreouer, Beholde, thy seruant Iaakob commeth after vs (for he thought, I will appease his wrath with the present that goeth before me, and afterwarde I will see his face: it may be that he will accept me.)
Ary lazao hoe koa: Indro, Jakoba mpanomponao ao aorianay ao. Fa hoy izy: Hampionona ny hatezerany aho amin’ ireo zavatra nampialohaviko ireo, ary rehefa afaka izany, dia vao hahita ny tavany aho; angamba hahazo fitia aminy aho.
21 So went the present before him: but he taried that night with the companie.
Ary dia lasa nialoha azy ireny zavatra nampanateriny ireny; fa izy mbola nitoetra teo amin’ ny toby ihany tamin’ iny alina iny.
22 And he rose vp the same night, and tooke his two wiues, and his two maides, and his eleuen children, and went ouer the forde Iabbok.
Dia nitsangana tamin’ iny alina iny ihany izy ka nitondra ny vadiny roa vavy sy ny ankizivaviny roa ary ny zananilahy iraika ambin’ ny folo, dia nita tamin’ ny fitàna tao Jaboka izy.
23 And he tooke them, and sent them ouer the riuer, and sent ouer that he had.
Ary naka azy ireo izy, dia nampita azy tamin’ ny renirano, ary nampita ny fananany koa izy.
24 Now when Iaakob was left him selfe alone, there wrestled a man with him vnto the breaking of the day.
Dia Jakoba irery no sisa nitoetra teo; ary nisy lehilahy anankiray nitolona taminy ambara-pahazavaratsin’ ny andro.
25 And he sawe that he could not preuaile against him: therefore he touched the holowe of his thigh, and the holowe of Iaakobs thigh was loosed, as he wrestled with him.
Ary rehefa hitany fa tsy naharesy azy izy, dia notendreny ny foto-peny; ka dia nivika ny foto-pen’ i Jakoba, raha mbola nitolona taminy Izy.
26 And he saide, Let me goe, for the morning appeareth. Who answered, I will not let thee go except thou blesse me.
Ary hoy Izy: Avelao Aho handeha, fa efa mazavaratsy ny andro. Fa hoy kosa Jakoba: Tsy havelako handeha Hianao, raha tsy tahinao aho.
27 Then said he vnto him, What is thy name? And he said, Iaakob.
Ary hoy Izy taminy: Iza moa no anaranao? dia hoy izy: Jakoba.
28 Then said he, Thy name shalbe called Iaakob no more, but Israel: because thou hast had power with God, thou shalt also preuaile with men.
Ary hoy indray Izy: Tsy hatao hoe Jakoba intsony ny anaranao, fa Isiraely; satria efa nitolona tamin’ Andriamanitra sy tamin’ ny olona ianao ka nahery.
29 Then Iaakob demaded, saying, Tell me, I pray thee, thy name. And he said, Wherefore now doest thou aske my name? and he blessed him there
Dia nanontany Jakoba ka nanao hoe: Masìna Hianao, lazao kely izay anaranao. Ary hoy Izy: Ahoana no anontanianao ny anarako? Dia nitahy azy teo Izy.
30 And Iaakob called the name of the place, Peniel: for, saide he, I haue seene God face to face, and my life is preserued.
Ary ny anaran’ izany tany izany dia nataon’ i Jakoba hoe Peniela; fa, hoy izy, efa nahita an’ Andriamanitra nifanatrika tamiko aho, nefa voavonjy ny aiko.
31 And the sunne rose vp to him as he passed Peniel, and he halted vpon his thigh.
Dia niposaka taminy ny masoandro, raha niala teo Peniela izy, ary nitolitsika izy noho ny feny.
32 Therefore the children of Israel eate not of the sinewe that shranke in the hollowe of the thigh, vnto this day: because he touched the sinew that shranke in the holow of Iaakobs thigh.
Izany no tsy ihinanan’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely ny ozatry ny atodiakanga mandraka androany; satria nanendry ny foto-pen’ i Jakoba teo amin’ ny ozatry ny atodiakanga Izy.
