< Genesis 33 >

1 Now Jacob looked up and saw that Esau approaching, and with him four hundred men. He divided the children between Leah, Rachel, and the two female servants.
Le nampiandrà’ Iakòbe o fihaino’eo naho niisa’e te nimb’ ama’e mb’eo t’i Esa­ve reketse ty lahilahy efa-jato. Aa le zinara’e amy Leae naho amy Rahkele vaho amy mpitoro’e ampela roe rey o ajajao.
2 He put the female servants and their children in front, Leah and her children after, and Rachel and Joseph last.
Na­noe’e aolo’e ey o mpitoroñeo rekets’ o ana’eo, le nanonjohy iereo t’i Leae naho o ana’eo vaho amboly ao t’i Rahkele naho Iosefe.
3 He himself went on ahead of them, and bowed himself to the ground seven times, until he approached his brother.
Niary mb’aolo’ iereo mb’eo re nibokok’ an-tane im-pito am-pañarineañe i zoke’ey
4 Esau ran to meet him, embraced him, hugged his neck, and kissed him. And they wept.
Aa le nilay mb’ama’e mb’eo t’i Esave niambotrak’ amy fititia’ey le norofa’e vaho sambe nangoihoy.
5 And he looked up and saw the women and the children, and said, "Who are these with you?" He said, "The children whom God has graciously given your servant."
Niandra t’i Esave nahaoniñe o rakemba reketse keleiañeo, le hoe re, Ia o mindre lia ama’oo? Hoe re: O anake natolon’Añahare am-patarihañe amo mpitoro’oo.
6 Then the female servants came forward with their children, and they bowed themselves.
Nitotoke mb’eo amy zao o mpitoroñ’ ampela rekets’ anakeo, le nibokok’ ambane;
7 Leah also and her children came forward, and bowed themselves. After them, Joseph came forward with Rachel, and they bowed themselves.
nimb’eo ka t’i Leae rekets’ anake naho nibokoke; nañarine amy zao t’Iosefe naho i Rahkele sindre niondreke.
8 Esau said, "What do you mean by all this company which I met?" Jacob said, "To find favor in the sight of my lord."
Hoe t’i Esave, Ino ty dika’ i lia’e maro nikovovoke nifanalaka amakoy? Tinoi’ Iakòbe ty hoe, Ty hahatendrehañe fañisohañe am-pivazohoa’ i talèkoy.
9 Esau said, "I have enough, my brother; keep what you have for yourself."
Fa hoe t’i Esave, Mahàtsek’ ahy o ahikoo, ry rahalahiko, tano ho azo o azoo.
10 Jacob said, "No, please, if I have now found favor in our sight, then accept my present from my hand, because I have seen your face, which is like seeing the face of God, since you have accepted me.
Hoe t’Iakòbe, Aiy, ie nahatrea ìsok’ am-pahaisaha’o, le rambeso an-tañako o ravoravoo; amy te izaho mahaisake o lahara’oo, le hoe mahatrea ty laharan’ Añahare, vaho t’ie nino’o.
11 Please take the gift that I brought to you, because God has been gracious to me, and because I have enough." Thus he urged him, and he took it.
Ehe rambeso i ravoravo binanabanako, fa niferenaiñan’ Añahare, naho maro o amakoo. Le nosihe’e vaho rinambe’e.
12 Esau said, "Let us take our journey, and let us go, and I will go ahead of you."
Le hoe re, Antao hitrao-dia, le hiaolo anahareo iraho.
13 Jacob said to him, "My lord knows that the children are tender, and that the sheep and cattle with me have their young, and if they overdrive them one day, the whole herd will die.
Fe hoe ty natoi’e, Fohi’ ty talèko te kamba o ajajao, vaho amako o rene’e naho añombe-vave rohy, aa naho ilosoran-tehake ndra andro raike le fonga ho mate o hareo.
14 Please let my lord pass on ahead of his servant, and I will move along slowly, at the pace of the herds that are before me and at the pace of the children, until I come to my lord at Seir."
Ehe te hañavelo aolo’ i mpitoro’ey mb’eo ty talèko, hisitsirako mora mb’eo ty amo hare mangovovok’ aolo ahio naho ty amy filesalesa’ o ajajao, ampara’ te pok’ amy talèko e Seire añe.
15 Esau said, "Let me now leave with you some of my people who are with me." But he said, "What need is there? Please indulge me, my lord."
Aa le hoe t’i Esave, Angao han­divako ama’o ondaty amakoo. Fa hoe re, Fa akore? Ee t’ie hahatrea fañisohañe am-pahaisaha’ i talèkoy.
16 So Esau returned that day on the road to Seir.
Aa le nimpoly mb’e Seire añe amy àndro zay t’i Esave.
17 But Jacob traveled to Succoth, and he built himself a house, and made shelters for his livestock. Therefore the name of the place is called Succoth.
Le nimb’e Sokote añe t’Iakòbe le nañoren-kivoho, naho nam­boa­ra’e fialofañe o añombe’eo, vaho natao Sokote i toetsey.
18 After Jacob came from Paddan Aram, he arrived safely at the city of Shechem, which is in the land of Canaan, and camped near the city.
Niavy tsy añolañe an-drova’ i Sikeme an-tane Kanàne eo t’Iakòbe boake Padan’ arama añe, vaho nañoren-kivoho aolo’ i rovay ey.
19 He purchased the parcel of land where he had pitched his tent, from the sons of Hamor, Shechem's father, for a hundred kesitahs.
Le vinili’e bogady zato amo ana’ i Khamòre rae’ i Sikemeo ty ila’ i teteke nampipoha’e i kivoho’eiy.
20 He erected an altar there and called it El Elohe Israel.
Le nañoren-kitrely eo ze natao’e El-Elohe-Israele.
