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.
levans autem Iacob oculos suos vidit venientem Esau et cum eo quadringentos viros divisitque filios Liae et Rahel ambarumque famularum
2 He put the female servants and their children in front, Leah and her children after, and Rachel and Joseph last.
et posuit utramque ancillam et liberos earum in principio Liam vero et filios eius in secundo loco Rahel autem et Ioseph novissimos
3 He himself went on ahead of them, and bowed himself to the ground seven times, until he approached his brother.
et ipse praegrediens adoravit pronus in terram septies donec adpropinquaret frater eius
4 Esau ran to meet him, embraced him, hugged his neck, and kissed him. And they wept.
currens itaque Esau obviam fratri suo amplexatus est eum stringensque collum et osculans flevit
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."
levatisque oculis vidit mulieres et parvulos earum et ait quid sibi volunt isti et si ad te pertinent respondit parvuli sunt quos donavit mihi Deus servo tuo
6 Then the female servants came forward with their children, and they bowed themselves.
et adpropinquantes ancillae et filii earum incurvati sunt
7 Leah also and her children came forward, and bowed themselves. After them, Joseph came forward with Rachel, and they bowed themselves.
accessitque Lia cum liberis suis et cum similiter adorassent extremi Ioseph et Rahel adoraverunt
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."
quaenam sunt inquit istae turmae quas obvias habui respondit ut invenirem gratiam coram domino meo
9 Esau said, "I have enough, my brother; keep what you have for yourself."
et ille habeo ait plurima frater mi sint tua tibi
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.
dixit Iacob noli ita obsecro sed si inveni gratiam in oculis tuis accipe munusculum de manibus meis sic enim vidi faciem tuam quasi viderim vultum Dei esto mihi propitius
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.
et suscipe benedictionem quam adtuli tibi et quam donavit mihi Deus tribuens omnia vix fratre conpellente suscipiens
12 Esau said, "Let us take our journey, and let us go, and I will go ahead of you."
ait gradiamur simul eroque socius itineris tui
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.
dixit Iacob nosti domine mi quod parvulos habeam teneros et oves ac boves fetas mecum quas si plus in ambulando fecero laborare morientur una die cuncti greges
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."
praecedat dominus meus ante servum suum et ego sequar paulatim vestigia eius sicut videro posse parvulos meos donec veniam ad dominum meum in Seir
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."
respondit Esau oro te ut de populo qui mecum est saltem socii remaneant viae tuae non est inquit necesse hoc uno indigeo ut inveniam gratiam in conspectu domini mei
16 So Esau returned that day on the road to Seir.
reversus est itaque illo die Esau itinere quo venerat in Seir
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.
et Iacob venit in Soccoth ubi aedificata domo et fixis tentoriis appellavit nomen loci illius Soccoth id est Tabernacula
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.
transivitque in Salem urbem Sycimorum quae est in terra Chanaan postquam regressus est de Mesopotamiam Syriae et habitavit iuxta oppidum
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.
emitque partem agri in qua fixerat tabernaculum a filiis Emor patris Sychem centum agnis
20 He erected an altar there and called it El Elohe Israel.
et erecto ibi altari invocavit super illud Fortissimum Deum Israhel
