Genesis 33
1 And Jacob lifts up his eyes, and looks, and behold, Esau is coming, and with him four hundred men; and he divides the children to Leah, and to Rachel, and to the two maidservants;
Dari jauh, Yakub melihat Esau dengan empat ratus anak buahnya mulai mendekat ke arah mereka. Maka dia membagi keluarganya menjadi empat kelompok: Lea dengan anak-anaknya, Rahel dengan anaknya, dan kedua budak perempuannya dengan anak-anak mereka masing-masing.
2 and he sets the maidservants and their children first, and Leah and her children behind, and Rachel and Joseph last.
Yakub menempatkan kelompok dua budak perempuannya bersama anak-anak mereka paling depan. Di belakang mereka adalah kelompok Lea bersama anak-anaknya, dan di barisan paling belakang, dia menempatkan Rahel dan Yusuf.
3 And he himself passed over before them, and bows himself to the earth seven times, until his drawing near to his brother,
Yakub sendiri berjalan di depan mereka semua. Sambil mendekati kakaknya, Yakub bersujud tujuh kali untuk menghormati Esau.
4 and Esau runs to meet him, and embraces him, and falls on his neck, and kisses him, and they weep;
Tetapi Esau berlari menghampiri Yakub, lalu memeluk dan menciumnya. Mereka pun bertangis-tangisan.
5 and he lifts up his eyes, and sees the women and the children, and says, “What [are] these to you?” And he says, “The children with whom God has favored your servant.”
Ketika Esau melihat para perempuan dan anak-anak di belakang Yakub, dia bertanya, “Siapa orang-orang yang bersamamu itu?” Jawab Yakub, “Mereka adalah anak-anak yang sudah Allah karuniakan kepada hambamu ini.”
6 And the maidservants draw near, they and their children, and bow themselves;
Kedua budak perempuan itu beserta anak-anak mendekat. Mereka bersujud untuk menghormati Esau.
7 and Leah also draws near, and her children, and they bow themselves; and afterward Joseph has drawn near with Rachel, and they bow themselves.
Kemudian Lea bersama anak-anaknya mendekat dan bersujud untuk menghormati Esau. Demikian juga Rahel dan Yusuf melakukan hal yang sama kepada Esau.
8 And he says, “What to you [is] all this camp which I have met?” And he says, “To find grace in the eyes of my lord.”
Esau berkata, “Apa maksudmu dengan kelompok-kelompok yang aku temui dalam perjalanan menuju ke sini?” Yakub menjawab, “Untuk mendapatkan kebaikan hati Tuan, supaya Tuan mau menerima aku.”
9 And Esau says, “I have abundance, my brother, that which you have, let it be for yourself.”
Kata Esau, “Adikku, aku sudah berkecukupan, biarlah apa yang kamu miliki itu tetap menjadi milikmu!”
10 And Jacob says, “No, please, now if I have found grace in your eyes, then you have received my present from my hand, because that I have seen your face, as the seeing of the face of God, and you are pleased with me;
Tetapi jawab Yakub, “Jangan! Kalau memang Tuan sudah berbaik hati dan mau menerima aku kembali, mohon terimalah pemberianku. Aku sangat senang melihat wajah Tuan lagi, rasanya seperti sedang melihat wajah Allah.
11 please receive my blessing which is brought to you, because God has favored me, and because I have all [things]”; and he presses on him, and he receives [it],
Tolong terimalah pemberian yang aku bawa ini, karena Allah sudah sangat berbaik hati kepadaku dan memberikan segala sesuatu yang aku perlukan.” Yakub terus memohon sampai akhirnya Esau mau menerima pemberian itu.
12 and says, “Let us journey and go on, and I go on before you.”
Esau berkata, “Mari kita teruskan perjalanan ini. Biarlah aku berjalan di depanmu, dan orang-orangku akan mendampingimu untuk menunjukkan jalan.”
13 And he says to him, “My lord knows that the children [are] tender, and the suckling flock and the herd [are] with me; when they have beaten them one day, then all the flock has died.
Tetapi Yakub menjawab, “Tuan pasti maklum bahwa anak-anak ini masih lemah, dan kami juga membawa beberapa induk sapi, domba, dan kambing yang masih menyusui. Kalau mereka harus berjalan jauh selama satu hari saja, semua kawanan ternak itu akan mati.
14 Please let my lord pass over before his servant, and I lead on gently, according to the foot of the work which [is] before me, and to the foot of the children, until I come to my lord, to Seir.”
Biarlah Tuan berjalan lebih dulu. Kami akan menyusul pelan-pelan, agar sapi dan ternak lainnya selamat dan anak-anak tidak terlalu lelah, sampai kami bertemu dengan Tuan di Seir.”
15 And Esau says, “Please let me place with you some of the people who [are] with me”; and he said, “Why [is] this? I find grace in the eyes of my lord.”
Kata Esau lagi, “Kalau begitu, biarlah aku meninggalkan beberapa anak buahku untuk berjalan bersamamu.” Jawab Yakub, “Tidak usah, Tuan! Aku sudah sangat senang bisa mendapat kebaikan hati Tuan yang begitu besar.”
16 And Esau turns back on that day on his way to Seir;
Maka pada hari itu juga, Esau kembali ke Seir,
17 and Jacob has journeyed to Succoth, and builds a house for himself, and has made shelters for his livestock, therefore he has called the name of the place Succoth.
sedangkan Yakub berjalan menuju Sukot. Di Sukot, Yakub membangun sebuah rumah bagi keluarganya dan membuat beberapa kandang bagi ternaknya. Itulah sebabnya tempat itu dinamai Sukot.
18 And Jacob comes safe [to the] city of Shechem, which [is] in the land of Canaan, in his coming from Padan-Aram, and encamps before the city,
Beberapa waktu sesudah Yakub dan keluarganya berangkat dari Padan Aram, mereka tiba dengan selamat di kota Sikem di negeri Kanaan. Lalu mereka mendirikan kemah di dekat kota itu.
19 and he buys the portion of the field where he has stretched out his tent, from the hand of the sons of Hamor, father of Shechem, for one hundred kesitah;
Yakub membeli tanah tempat mereka berkemah dari keluarga Hemor, ayah Sikem, seharga seratus keping perak.
20 and he sets up there an altar, and proclaims at it God—the God of Israel.
Di situ, Yakub mendirikan mezbah dan menamainya Allah Israel Berkuasa.
