Genesis 32
1 And Jacob has gone on his way, and messengers of God come on him;
Tedae Jakob loh amah longpuei ah a caeh hatah anih te Pathen kah puencawn rhoek a doe uh.
2 and Jacob says, when he has seen them, “This [is] the camp of God”; and he calls the name of that place “Two Camps.”
Tedae Jakob loh amih te a hmuh vaengah, “Hekah he Pathen kah rhaehhmuen ni,” a ti tih tekah hmuen ming te Mahanaim a sui.
3 And Jacob sends messengers before him to his brother Esau, toward the land of Seir, the field of Edom,
Te phoeiah Jakob loh Edom kho, Seir khohmuen la a maya Esau taengah a hmai la puencawn rhoek te a tueih.
4 and commands them, saying, “Thus you say to my lord, to Esau, Thus said your servant Jacob: I have sojourned with Laban, and I linger until now;
Te vaengah amih te a uen tih, “Ka boei Esau taengah he he thui pah. Na sal Jakob tah Laban taengah ka bakuep tih tahae duela ka uelh.
5 and I have ox, and donkey, flock, and manservant, and maidservant, and I send to declare to my lord, to find grace in his eyes.”
Te phoeiah kai taengah vaito neh laak boiva khaw, sal neh salnu khaw om. Na mikhmuh ah mikdaithen dang hamla ka boeipa taengah aka puen la kai n'tueih,’ ti nah,” a ti nah.
6 And the messengers return to Jacob, saying, “We came to your brother, to Esau, and he is also coming to meet you, and four hundred men with him”;
Tedae puencawn rhoek te Jakob taengla mael uh tih, “Na maya Esau taengla ka cet uh coeng, te nang te doe ham a taengkah hlang ya li neh halo coeng,” a ti nauh.
7 and Jacob fears exceedingly, and is distressed, and he divides the people who [are] with him, and the flock, and the herd, and the camels, into two camps,
Te vaengah Jakob loh bahoeng a rhih tih amah te a te daengdaeh uh. Te dongah a taengkah pilnam te khaw, boiva khaw, saelhung khaw, kalauk rhoek khaw rhoi nit la a tael.
8 and says, “If Esau comes to one camp, and has struck it—then the camp which is left has been for an escape.”
Te khaw Esau loh rhoi at te a paan tih a ngawn atah rhoi at aka om te khaw rhalyong la om saeh a ti dongah ni.
9 And Jacob says, “God of my father Abraham and God of my father Isaac, YHWH who says to me, Return to your land and to your family, and I do good with you:
Te phoeiah Jakob loh, “Kai taengah namah khohmuen neh na pacaboeina taengla bal lamtah nang te kan hoeikhang sak ni,” aka ti a pa Abraham kah Pathen neh a pa Isaak kah BOEIPA Pathen,
10 I have been unworthy of all the kind acts and of all the truth which You have done with your servant—for with my staff I passed over this Jordan, and now I have become two camps.
Sitlohnah cungkuem neh uepomnah cungkuem te na salpa taengah nan saii ham tah rhaidaeng. Ka cunghol neh Jordan he ka kat ngawn dae rhoi nit la ka lo coeng.
11 Please deliver me from the hand of my brother, from the hand of Esau: for I am fearing him, lest he come and has struck me—mother beside sons;
Ka maya kut lamloh, Esau kut lamkah kai n'huul mai dae. Anih te ka rhih, halo vetih camoe rhoek neh a manu rhoek khaw, kamah khaw n'ngawn ve.
12 and You have said, I certainly do good with you, and have set your seed as the sand of the sea, which is not numbered because of the multitude.”
Tedae namah loh, 'Hoeikhang ham khaw nang te kan hoeikhang sak vetih nang kah tiingan te tuitunli kah laivin bangla ka khueh vetih tae thai mahpawh,’ na ti,” tila thangthui.
13 And he lodges there during that night, and takes from that which is coming into his hand, a present for his brother Esau:
Te dongah teah te khoyin puet rhaeh. A kut ah a khuen te khaw a maya Esau ham khosaa la,
14 female goats two hundred, and male goats twenty, ewes two hundred, and rams twenty,
Maae a la yahnih neh maaetal pumkul, tumanu yahnih neh tutal pumkul.
15 suckling camels and their young ones thirty, cows forty, and bullocks ten, female donkeys twenty, and foals ten;
Kalauk cacun te a ca rhoek hmaihneh thumkip, vaito a la likip neh vaitotal pumrha, laak a la pumkul neh laaktal pumrha,” a paek.
16 and he gives into the hand of his servants every drove by itself, and says to his servants, “Pass over before me, and a space you put between drove and drove.”
Te phoeiah tuping, tuping te amah loh a sal rhoek kut ah a tloeng tih a sal rhoek te,” Kai hmai ah cet lamtah tuping laklo neh tuping laklo te hnalak khueh uh,” a ti nah.
17 And he commands the first, saying, “When my brother Esau meets you, and has asked you, saying, Whose [are] you? And to where do you go? And whose [are] these before you?
Te phoeiah lamhma taengah, “Ka maya Esau te na hum uh tih, 'Nang ulae? Melam na caeh eh? Na hmaikah rhoek he u kah lae a ti tih n'dawt vaengah,
18 Then you have said, Your servant Jacob’s: it [is] a present sent to my lord, to Esau; and behold, he also [is] behind us.”
'Na sal Jakob kah ni. Hekah he ka boeipa Esau taengah khosaa la ham pat tih amah khaw kaimih hnukkah halo ke,’ ti nah,” a ti tih a uen.
19 And he commands also the second, also the third, also all who are going after the droves, saying, “According to this manner do you speak to Esau in your finding him,
Te phoeiah a pabae te khaw, a pathum te khaw, tuping hnukah aka cet boeih te khaw, “Nangmih khaw Esau neh na hum uh vaengah hekah olka he thikat la thui uh lamtah,
20 and you have also said, Behold, your servant Jacob [is] behind us”; for he said, “I pacify his face with the present which is going before me, and afterward I see his face; it may be he lifts up my face”;
nang kah sal Jakob khaw kaimih hnukah om ke,’ na ti uh ni,” a ti tih a uen. Ba dongah tikoinih ka mikhmuh kah aka pongpa khosaa neh a hmai ka saak pah vetih, te phoeiah tah a maelhmai ka hmuh vaengah kai maelhmai khaw a hlam khaming a ti.
21 and the present passes over before his face, and he has lodged during that night in the camp.
Te dongah khosaa te a hmai la a caeh sak. Tedae amah tah rhaehhmuen ah hlaem at rhaeh pueng.
22 And he rises in that night, and takes his two wives, and his two maidservants, and his eleven children, and passes over the passage of Jabbok;
Tedae tekah khoyin ah thoo tih a yuu rhoi neh a salnu rhoi khaw, a ca rhoek hlai at te khaw a loh tih Jabbok lamkai ah a kat puei.
23 and he takes them, and causes them to pass over the brook, and he causes that which he has to pass over.
Amih te khaw a khuen tih a thak phoeiah amah taengah aka om rhoek te khaw soklong la a tueih.
24 And Jacob is left alone, and One wrestles with him until the ascending of the dawn;
Te vaengah Jakob te amah bueng la a cul coeng dongah anih te hlang pakhat loh khothaih tom due a hnueih.
25 and He sees that He is not able for him, and He comes against the hollow of his thigh, and the hollow of Jacob’s thigh is disjointed in his wrestling with Him;
Tedae anih te ka na pawh tila a hmuh vaengah Jakob kah a hlit te a koi pah tih anih te a hnueih pangthuem Jakob kah a hlit te voeng nong.
26 and He says, “Send Me away, for the dawn has ascended”: and he says, “I do not send You away, except You have blessed me.”
Te vaengah, “Khothaih loh n'kae coeng tih kai n'hlah laeh,” a ti nah hatah Jakob loh, “Kai he yoethen nan paek hlan atah nang khaw kan hlah mahpawh,” a ti nah.
27 And He says to him, “What [is] your name?” And he says, “Jacob.”
Te dongah amah la, “Nang ming te balae,” a ti nah hatah, “Jakob,” a ti nah dae,
28 And He says, “Your name is no longer called Jacob, but Israel; for you have reigned with God and with men, and prevail.”
“Na ming te Jakob ti voel boel lamtah Pathen neh hlang rhoek te na hnueih tih na na coeng dongah Israel ti laeh,” a ti nah.
29 And Jacob asks and says, “Please declare Your Name”; and He says, “Why [is] this, you ask for My Name?” And He blesses him there.
Te phoeiah Jakob loh a dawt tih, “Na ming te thui lah,” a ti nah hatah, “Ka ming he ba ham lae nan dawt,” a ti nah tih anih te yoethen pahoi a paek.
30 And Jacob calls the name of the place Peniel: “For I have seen God face to face, and my life is delivered”;
Te dongah Jakob loh, “Pathen maelhmai te a hmai lamloh hmuh coeng dae ka hinglu huul uh,” a ti dongah tekah hmuen ming te Peniel a sui.
31 and the sun rises on him when he has passed over Penuel, and he is halting on his thigh;
Tedae Penuel te a poeng vanneh a soah khomik thoeng. Anih khaw a hlit dongah cungdo phai.
32 therefore the sons of Israel do not eat the sinew which shrank, which [is] on the hollow of the thigh, to this day, because He came against the hollow of Jacob’s thigh, against the sinew which shrank.
Te dongah Israel ca rhoek loh a hlit dongkah tharhui thanal te tihnin due ca uh pawh. Jakob kah tharhui thanal ah aka om a hlit te a koi pah coeng.
