< Genesis 33 >

1 And Jacob lifted up his eyes, and looked, and, behold, Esau came, and with him four hundred men. And he divided the children unto Leah, and unto Rachel, and unto the two handmaids.
याकूबले माथि हेर्दा एसाव आउँदै थिए, र तिनीसित चार सय मानिस थिए । तिनले आफ्ना छोराछोरीहरूलाई लेआ, राहेल र दुई जना कमारीको बिचमा विभाजन गरे ।
2 And he put the handmaids and their children foremost, and Leah and her children after, and Rachel and Joseph hindermost.
तब तिनले कमारीहरू र तिनीहरूका छोराछोरीहरूलाई अग्रपङ्क्तिमा राखे; त्यसपछि लेआ र उनका छोराछोरीहरू अनि अन्त्यमा राहेल र योसेफलाई राखे ।
3 And he himself passed over before them, and bowed himself to the ground seven times, until he came near to his brother.
तिनी आफैचाहिँ तिनीहरूभन्दा अगिअगि गए । तिनी आफ्ना दाजुको नजिक नआउञ्‍जेलसम्म तिनले सात पटक भुइँमा शिर निहुर्‍याउँदै गए ।
4 And Esau ran to meet him, and embraced him, and fell on his neck, and kissed him: and they wept.
एसाव याकूबलाई भेट्न दौडिए; अङ्गालो हाले; अङ्कमाल गरे र चुम्बन गरे । त्यसपछि तिनीहरू रोए ।
5 And he lifted up his eyes, and saw the women and the children; and said, Who are these with thee? And he said, The children which God hath graciously given thy servant.
एसावले हेर्दा तिनले स्‍त्रीहरू र केटाकेटीहरूलाई देखे । तिनले भने, “तिमीसँगै आएका यी मानिसहरू को हुन्?” याकूबले भने, “तपाईंका दासलाई परमेश्‍वरले अनुग्रहसाथ दिनुभएका छोराछोरीहरू हुन् ।”
6 Then the handmaids came near, they and their children, and they bowed themselves.
त्यसपछि आ-आफ्ना छोराछोरीहरू लिएर कमारीहरू आएर एसावलाई ढोग गरे ।
7 And Leah also and her children came near, and bowed themselves: and after came Joseph near and Rachel, and they bowed themselves.
अनि लेआ र उनका छोराछोरीहरू आएर ढोग गरे । अन्त्यमा योसेफ र राहेल आएर ढोग गरे ।
8 And he said, What meanest thou by all this company which I met? And he said, To find grace in the sight of my lord.
एसावले भने, “मैले भेटेका यी सबै दलको अर्थ के हो?” याकूबले जवाफ दिए, “मेरा मालिकको दृष्‍टिमा निगाह प्राप्‍त गर्नलाई हो ।”
9 And Esau said, I have enough; my brother, let that thou hast be thine.
एसावले भने, “मेरा भाइ, मसित प्रशस्त छ । तिम्रो जे हो, ती आफैसित राख ।”
10 And Jacob said, Nay, I pray thee, if now I have found grace in thy sight, then receive my present at my hand: forasmuch as I have seen thy face, as one seeth the face of God, and thou wast pleased with me.
याकूबले भने, “त्यसो होइन । मैले तपाईंको दृष्‍टिमा निगाह पाएको छु भने मेरो हातबाट उपहार ग्रहण गर्नुहोस् । किनभने मैले तपाईंको मुहार देखेको छु, र यो परमेश्‍वरको मुहार देखेजस्तै भएको छ र तपाईंले मलाई ग्रहण गर्नुभएको छ ।
11 Take, I pray thee, my gift that is brought to thee; because God hath dealt graciously with me, and because I have enough. And he urged him, and he took it.
कृपया, तपाईंको लागि ल्याइएको यो उपहारलाई ग्रहण गर्नुहोस् किनभने परमेश्‍वरले मसित अनुग्रहसाथ व्यवहार गर्नुभएको छ, र मसित प्रशस्तै छ ।” यसरी याकूबले बिन्ती गरेपछि एसावले त्यसलाई स्वीकार गरे ।
12 And he said, Let us take our journey, and let us go, and I will go before thee.
तब एसावले भने, “हामी आफ्नो बाटो लागौँ । म तिम्रो अगिअगि जानेछु ।”
13 And he said unto him, My lord knoweth that the children are tender, and that the flocks and herds with me give suck: and if they overdrive them one day, all the flocks will die.
याकूबले तिनलाई भने, “मेरा मालिकलाई थाहै छ, कि यी केटाकेटीहरू सानै छन् र यी गाईबस्तुहरूले दुध चुसाउँदै छन् । तिनीहरूलाई एकै दिन मात्र बेसरी धपाइयो भने ती सबै मर्नेछन् ।
14 Let my lord, I pray thee, pass over before his servant: and I will lead on softly, according to the pace of the cattle that is before me and according to the pace of the children, until I come unto my lord unto Seir.
यसैले मेरा मालिक आफ्ना दासभन्दा अगिअगि जानुहोस् भनी म बिन्ती गर्दछु । सेइरमा मेरा मालिककहाँ नआइपुगुञ्‍जेलसम्म म गाईबस्तुको चाल र केटाकेटीहरूको चालमा निकै बिस्तारै हिँड्नेछु ।
15 And Esau said, Let me now leave with thee some of the folk that are with me. And he said, What needeth it? let me find grace in the sight of my lord.
एसावले भने, “म तिमीसित भएका केही मानिसहरूसित मेरा केही मानिसहरू छाडिदिन्छु ।” तर याकूबले भने, “किन त्यसो गर्ने?” मेरा मालिकको दृष्‍टिमा मैले निगाह पाए त भइहाल्यो नि ।”
16 So Esau returned that day on his way unto Seir.
त्यसैले त्यही दिन एसाव सेइरतर्फ फर्कन आफ्नो बाटो लागे ।
17 And Jacob journeyed to Succoth, and built him an house, and made booths for his cattle: therefore the name of the place is called Succoth.
याकूब सुक्‍कोततर्फ लागे । त्यहाँ तिनले डेरा हाले र आफ्ना गाईबस्तुहरूका निम्ति छाप्रा हाले । त्यसकारण त्यस ठाउँको नाउँ सुक्‍कोत राखियो ।
18 And Jacob came in peace to the city of Shechem, which is in the land of Canaan, when he came from Paddan-aram; and encamped before the city.
याकूब पद्दन-आरामबाट आउँदा तिनी शकेमको सहरमा सुरक्षितसाथ आइपुगे जुन ठाउँ कनान देशमा पर्छ । तिनले सहरनजिकै पाल टाँगे ।
19 And he bought the parcel of ground, where he had spread his tent, at the hand of the children of Hamor, Shechem’s father, for an hundred pieces of money.
त्यसपछि तिनले एक सय चाँदीका सिक्‍कामा शकेमका पिता हमोरका छोराहरूबाट एउटा जग्गा किने र त्यहीँ नै आफ्नो पाल टाँगे ।
20 And he erected there an altar, and called it El-elohe-Israel.
त्यहाँ तिनले एउटा वेदी बनाए र त्यसको नाउँ एल-एलोह-एस्राएल राखे ।
