Genesis 33
1 [Then Jacob joined the rest of his family]. [Later that day] Jacob looked up and saw Esau coming, and there were 400 men with him. [Jacob was worried because of that], so he separated the children. He put Leah’s children with Leah, Rachel’s children with Rachel, and the two female slaves’ children with their mothers.
Ya: igobe da Iso amola dunu 400 agoane logoga ahoanebe ba: i. Amaiba: le, e da ea mano huluane afafane, Lia, La: isele amola ea gidisedagi uda aduna, amo ouligima: ne ilima i.
2 He put the two female slaves and their children in front. He put Leah and her children next. He put Rachel and Joseph at the rear.
E da gidisedagi uda amola ela mano bisimusa: asunasili, Lia amola ea mano fa: no, amola fa: nodafa La: isele amola Yousefe amola asunasi.
3 He himself went ahead of them all, and as he continued to approach his older brother, he prostrated himself with his face on the ground seven times.
Ya: igobe da bisili, ea ola gadenene doaga: loba, fesuale agoane osoboga begudui.
4 But Esau ran to Jacob. He hugged him, put his arms around his neck, and kissed him on the cheek. And they both cried.
Be Iso da hehenane, Ya: igobe ouga: ne nonogoi. Ela da bagadewane dinanu.
5 Then Esau looked up and saw the women and the children. He asked, “Who are these people who are with you?” Jacob replied, “These are the wives and children that God has graciously/kindly given to me.”
Iso da ba: le ga: le, uda amola mano ba: beba: le, amane sia: i, “Amo dima sigi maha da nowala: ?” Ya: igobe da bu adole i “Ada! Amo da mano, Gode da nama hahawaneba: le nama i.”
6 Then the female slaves and their children came near and bowed in front of Esau.
Amalalu, gidisedagi uda aduna amola ela mano da misini begudui.
7 Then Leah and her children came and bowed down. Finally Joseph and Rachel came near and bowed down.
Amalalu Lia amola ea mano misini amola fa: no Yousefe amola La: isele da misini, huluane da begudui.
8 Esau asked, “What is the meaning of all the animals that I saw?” Jacob replied, “I am giving them to you, sir, so that you will feel good toward me.”
Iso da amane adole ba: i, “Be amo gilisisu eno da nama misi. Amo da adila: ?” Ya: igobe da bu adole i, “Amo da di hahawane ba: ma: ne, na da asunasi.”
9 But Esau replied, “My [younger] brother, I have enough animals! Keep for yourself the animals that you have!”
Be Iso da amane sia: i, “Be na da defele gagui gala. Dia liligi di fawane gaguma!”
10 But Jacob said, “No, please, if you feel good toward me, accept these gifts from me. You have greeted me very kindly. Seeing your smiling face assures me [that you have forgiven me]. It is like seeing the face of God!
Be Ya: igobe da amane sia: i, “Di da na hou hahawane ba: sea, na udigili hahawane iasu lalegaguma. Amo na da dima ha: giwane edegesa. Bai di da na hahawane ba: beba: le, dia odagi da nama Gode Ea odagi agoane ba: sa.
11 Please accept these gifts that I have brought to you, because God has acted kindly toward me, and I still have plenty of animals!” Jacob kept on urging him to accept the animals, and finally he accepted them.
Gode da nama asigiba: le, nama bagade i dagoi. Na da sadiba: le, amo hahawane udigili iasu di lalegaguma.” Ya: igobe da ha: giwane sia: beba: le, Iso da ea iasu lai.
12 Then Esau said, “Let’s continue traveling together, and I will show the road to you.”
Amalalu, Iso da amane sia: i, “Defea! Hadiga! Ani liligi momagele, ahoa: di! Na da dili bisili masunu.”
13 Jacob [had no intention to go with Esau], but he said, “You know, sir, that the children are weak, and that I must take care of the female sheep and cows that are (sucking their mother’s milk/nursing their young). If I force them to walk fast for a long distance in just one day, the animals will all die.
Be Ya: igobe da bu adole i, “Di dawa: ! Mano ilia da gasa hame galebe amola sibi, eno lai gebo fi amola ilia mano na da dawa: lala. Eso afaiwane ninia amo gasawane sefasisia, ilia huluane bogogia: mu.
14 You go ahead of me. I will lead the animals slowly, but I will walk as fast as the children and animals can walk. I will catch up with you in Seir, [in the land where the descendants of Edom live].”
Di bisili masa. Na da gebewane fa: no bobogemu. Na da ilia gasa defele, lai gebo fi amola mano oule asili, Idome diasuga dima bu gilisimu.”
15 Esau said, “Then allow me to leave with you some of the men who came with me, [to protect you].” But Jacob replied, “(Why do that?/There is no need to do that!) [RHQ] The only thing that I want is for you to act friendly toward me.”
Iso da bu sia: i, “Amasea na da na dunu mogili di ouligima: ne yolesimu.” Be Ya: igobe da bu adole i, “Mae dawa: ma! Na hanai da di da nama asigisa amo fawane hanai!”
16 So on that day Esau left to return to Seir.
Amalalu, amo esoga, Iso da Idome sogega doaga: musa: asi.
17 But [instead of going to Seir], Jacob and his family went to [a place called] Succoth. There he built a house for himself and his family, and built shelters for his livestock. That is the reason they named the place Succoth, [which means ‘shelters’].
Be Ya: igobe da Sagode sogega asili, diasu gagui. Amola ea lai gebo golama: ne, diasu eno gaguli gagai. Amaiba: le, ilia amo diasuga Sagode dio asuli.
18 [Some time later, ] Jacob and his family left Paddan-Aram [in Mesopotamia], and they traveled safely to the Canaan region. There they set up their tents in a field near Shechem city.
Ya: igobe da Mesoubouda: imia sogega buhagiloba, e da hahawane Siegeme moilai bai bagade (Ga: ina: ne soge amo ganodini) amoga doaga: loba, e da sogebi Siegeme moilai bai bagade gadenene amoga ea abula diasu gilisisu gagui galu.
19 One of the leaders of the people in that area was named Hamor. Hamor had several sons. Jacob paid the sons of Hamor 100 pieces of silver for the piece of ground on which they set up their tents.
E da amo ifabi sogebi bidi lama: ne, Ha: imo (Siegeme eda) amo egaga fi ilima silifa muni fage 100 amoga bidi lai.
20 He built a stone altar there, and named it El-Elohe Israel, [which means ‘God, the God of Israel].’
Amoga e da oloda hamoi. Amo oloda e da dio asuli amo Ele Elouhe (Isala: ili fi ilia Gode Ea Dio).
