< Genesis 32 >

1 As Jacob and his family continued traveling, some angels, whom God sent, met him.
Jekopu'a kantega nevigeno, Anumzamofo ankeromo'za agrite efore hu'naze.
2 When Jacob saw them, he said, “This is God’s army camp!” So he named that place Mahanaim, [which means ‘two camps’].
Hagi Jekopu'ma nezmageno'a amanage hu'ne, Ama Anumzamofo nonkumare, nehuno agi'a Mahanaimie huno ante'ne.
3 Jacob told some of the men to go ahead of him to his older brother Esau, who was living in Seir, the land where the descendants of Edom lived.
Jekopu'a ke erino vu vahe huzmantege'za vugote'za nefu Iso mani'nere Idomu moparega, mago agi'a Seirie nehazarega vu'naze.
4 He told them, “This is what I want you to say to Esau: 'I, Jacob, want to be your servant and I want you to be my master. I have been living with our uncle Laban, and I have stayed there until now.
Hagi Jekopu'a mago'ene amanage huno huzmante'ne, Amanage huta ranimofo Isona ome asamiho, eri'za neka'a Jekopu'a anage hie, nagra Lebani mopafi mani'noreti menina neoe.
5 I now own many cattle, donkeys, sheep, goats, and male and female slaves. Now I am sending this message to you, sir, hoping that you will (be friendly toward me/treat me kindly) when I arrive.’ “
Nagra bulimakao afutaminki, donkiraminki, memeramine, sipisipi kevuzagane, eri'za veanine zamavare'na ne-ena ranimoka kagrama kasunku'ma hunantenka mago krimpama hunka antahinamisanku hunezmantoe, hie huta ome asmiho.
6 The messengers went and gave that message to Esau. When they returned to Jacob, they said, “We went to your older brother Esau. Now he is coming to you, and 400 men are coming with him.”
Hige'za kema eri'za vu'naza vahe'mo'za ete e'za Jekopuna amanage hu'za eme asmi'naze, Negafu Isona ome asamunanagi kantega tutagiha hugantenaku ne-ege'za, 400'a vahe'mo'za avega hu'za neaze.
7 Jacob was very afraid and worried. So he divided the people who were with him into two groups. He also divided the sheep and goats, the cattle, and the camels, into two groups.
Hazageno Jekopu'na tusi amano vazigeno agu'amo tare nehigeno, miko'a zama'ane vahe'ane, bulimakao kevune, memeramine, sipisipiramine, kemoriramina tarefi refko huno kevu huzmantene.
8 He was thinking, “If Esau and his men come and attack us, perhaps one of the groups will be left and will be able to escape.”
Amanahu agesa agra antahi'ne, Iso'ma, mago kevuma ha'ma eme huzmantesigeno'a, mago kevu'moza fresnaze, huno nehuno tare kevua refako hunte'ne.
9 Then Jacob prayed, “O Yahweh God, whom my grandfather Abraham worshiped and my father Isaac worships, you said to me, ‘Go back to your own land and to your relatives, and I will (cause good things happen to/do good things for) you.’
E'ina nehuno amanage huno Anumzamofontega nunamuna hu'ne, Nenageho Abrahamu Anumzane, nafa'nimofo Aisaki Anumzana, Ra Anumzamoka Kagra nasaminka, ete kagra mopaka'are nagaka'arega vuge'na, kazeri knare hugantaneno hunka hu'nane.
10 I am not worthy for you to have been so kind and faithful to me in so many ways, your servant. I had only this walking stick with me when I crossed the Jordan [River on my way to Haran], but now I am so wealthy that there are two large groups of my family and possessions.
Nagra knare osu vahe mani'nogenka vagaore kavesizane, kema hu'nante amage ante avu'avazanena Kagra eri'za vahekamo'na naveri' hu'nane. Hagi nagra magoke azompa eri'nena Jodani tina takahe'na vu'noe. Hanki menina nagra tare seli nonku'ma eme ki'na mani'noe.
11 So now I pray that you will rescue me from [MTY] my [older] brother Esau, because I am afraid that he and his men will come and attack and kill me and the children and their mothers.
Koro nagesa nehige'na, nagra nunamu nehuanki, nenfu Iso azampintira, nagu'vazio. Na'ankure eme nenaheno, mofavre ni'ane, nezamareranena zamahegahianki naza huo.
12 But do not forget that you have said, ‘I will certainly enable you to prosper, and I will cause your descendants to be as numerous as the grains of sand on the seashore, which are so many that no one can count them.’”
Na'ankure Kagra hunka, Nagra kazeri ra neha'nena kagehe'za hagerinkenafi kasepankna hanage'za, vahe'mo'zahampri hana hugara osugahaze, hunka ko nagrira hunante'nane.
13 Jacob slept there that night. The next morning he selected some animals to give to his brother Esau.
Hagi ana kenagera anante maseteno, kotigeno otino mika'zama erino e'nefintira ase'ma hu'neama'a refko huno muse'za nefu Iso ami'za eri atru hu'ne.
14 He selected 200 female goats and 20 male goats, 200 female sheep and 20 male sheep,
200'a a' memeraminki, 20'a ve memeraminki, 200'a sipisipiraminki, 20'a ve sipisipiraminena zamavarenenteno,
15 30 female camels and their offspring, 40 cows and ten bulls, 20 female donkeys and 10 male donkeys.
30'a kemori afuzagane anenta'zmine, 40'a a' bulimakaoramine, 10ni'a ve bulimakao afuzagagi, 20'a a' donkiraminki, 10ni'a ve donki afutaminki huno zamarente'ne.
16 He divided them into small herds, and put each herd into the care of one of his servants. He said to his servants, “Go ahead of me, one group at a time, and keep some space between each herd.”
Ana huteno eri'za vahe'amokizmi huzmantege'za afu'zaga kevure kevure refko hute'za rure rure zamavare'za nevazageno amanage huno zamasmi'ne, navuga vugoteta nevuta rure rure zamavareta viho,
17 He said to the servant who was going with the first group, “When my brother Esau meets you, and he asks you, ‘To whom do you belong, and where are you going, and to whom do these animals in front of you belong?’
huno nehuno, kotama vaza nagamokimire'ma vugotama hia eriza nera, amanage huno hankave ke asmi'ne, Nenfu Iso'ma eno emenegageno, igati vahe'moka, iga nevane, aza afu'zaga zamaregotenka neane? huno kantahigesigenka,
18 tell him, ‘They belong to your servant Jacob. He has sent them to you as a gift, sir. And he is coming behind us.’”
amanage hunka asmio, eri'za vahekamofo Jekopu afutamine. Muse'za ramofo nefu Iso ami'zane, hagi agra henka tamage'a ne-e hiho.
19 He also said the same thing to the servants who were taking care of the second and third groups, and to the other herdsmen. He said to them, “When you meet Esau, I want you to say to him the same thing that I told the first servant.
Hanki anante anante'ma hu'za henkama vutere haza afu kevuraminte'ma kvama hu'zama vaza eri'za vahe'tmina kantegama Iso'na kesuta anankege ome asamiho, huno huzmante'ne.
20 And be sure to say ‘Jacob, who wants to serve you, is coming behind us.’” Jacob told them to say that because he was thinking, “Perhaps these gifts that I am sending ahead of me will cause him to (act peacefully toward/stop being angry with) me. Then later, when I see him, perhaps he will be kind to me.”
Anage nehuno mago'ene amanage huno huzmante'ne, Eri'za vaheka'a Jekopu'a agra tamefiga'a ne-e huta hiho. E'i anankema hu'neana, na'ankure kote'na museza ami'nenkeno e'nerino rimpa fru hutena, henka avufima ome negesugeno'a muse huno navregahie huno Jekopu'a agesa nentahino hu'ne.
21 So the men taking the gifts [PRS] went ahead, but Jacob himself stayed in the camp that night.
Anage huno nentahino huzmantege'za ana musezama amisia afu kevua zamavare'za vugota hu'za vazageno, ana kenagera seli noma ki'za mase'nare Jekopu'a anante mase'ne.
22 Some time during that night, Jacob got up and took his two wives, his two female slaves, and his eleven sons and his daughter, and he sent them across the ford at the Jabbok River.
Ana kenage amu'nompi Jekopu'a otino a' trema'ane, eri'za mofatrene, 11ni'a mofavre'ane zamavareno Jabok osi tina kagata hu'nere ome zamatrege'za takahe'za vu'naze.
23 After he had done that, he sent other slaves, carrying all his possessions, across the river.
Zamavreno ome zamatreteno eri'za vahe'a huzmantege'za, maka afufenoma'a eri'za takahe'za vu'naze.
24 So Jacob was left there alone. But a man came and wrestled with him until dawn.
Anante Jekopu'a agrake mani'negeno, kenagera mago ne' anante ege'ne ogazafe agazafe hu'neke, oretufe aretufe nehakeno vuno kotu'za hu'ne.
25 When the man realized that he was not winning against Jacob, he struck Jacob’s hip and caused the thigh bone to pull away from the hip socket.
Ana ne'mo'ma keama Jekopuma agate'marega osuno'a, amumazinare regri'nea zaferinare ahegeno Jekopuna amumazinamo'a avazu hurami'ne.
26 Then the man said, “Let me go, because it will soon be daylight.” [Then Jacob realized who he was really wrestling with]. So he replied, “No, if you will not bless me, I will not let you go!”
Ana higeno ana ne'mo'a amanage hu'ne, Kotu'za hianki natrege'na va'neno, huno ana ne'mo'a higeno, Jekopu'a ana nekura huno, Katra'nena ame hunka ovugahananki, asomu hunantetenkage vugahane, huno higeno,
27 The man said to him, “What is your name?” He replied, “Jacob.”
ana ne'mo'a antahigeno, Kagi'a azage, higeno, Nagra Jekopu'ne huno asamigeno,
28 The man said, “Your name will no longer be Jacob. Your name will be Israel, [which means ‘he struggles with God’, ] because you have struggled with God and with people, and you have won.”
ana ne'mo'a huno, Mago'ene kagrikura Jekopu'e hu'za osugahaze. Na'ankure Anumzane, mopafi vahe'ene hara hunka agatere'nanku menina kagi'a Israelige.
29 Jacob said, “Now, please tell me your name!” The man replied, “(Why do you ask me what my name is?/You should not have to ask me what my name is!)” [RHQ] But he blessed Jacob there.
Higeno Jekopu'a antahigeno, Muse (plis) hugantoanki kagika'a nasamio, huno antahigegeno, Na'anku Nagri nagigura nantahi negane? Nehuno anante asomu hunte'ne.
30 So Jacob named the place Peniel, [which means ‘God’s face’, ] saying “I looked directly at God, but I did not die because of doing that.”
Higeno Jekopu'a huno, Nagra Anumzamofo avufi koanagi ofri manue, nehuno Jekopu'a ana kumakura Penielie huno agi'a ante'ne.
31 The sun was rising as Jacob left Peniel, and he was limping because of what had happened to his hip.
Penieli kumara agateretegeno, zagemo'a hanati anamifi tegeno, revazmu revazmu huno vu'ne. Na'ankure amumazinamo'a ruvazu hu'negu anara hu'ne.
32 The muscle on his hip joint had been injured. So to this present time, because of what happened to Jacob, the Israeli people do not eat the muscle/tendon that is attached to the socket of the hips of animals.
Ana hu'negu menina Israeli vahe'mo'za zagagafamofo amumazinamo'ma agezafima eme regri'nerema me'nea ame'a nonaze. Na'ankure Jekopu amumzinama avako'ma hu'nea zanku hu'za nonaze.
