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.
NANA aku la na maka o Iakoba, ike aku la, aia hoi, ua hiki mai o Esau me na haneri kanaka eha. A puunaue aku la ia i na kamalii ia Lea, a ia Rahela, a i na kauwawahine elua.
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.
Hoonoho aku la ia i na kauwawahine me na keiki a laua mamua, ia Lea hoi me kana mau keiki mahope iho, a ia Rahela me Iosepa mahope loa.
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.
Hele e aku la ia mamua o lakou; kulou pahiku iho la ia ma ka honua, a hiki aku la ia i kona kaikuaana.
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.
Holo mai la o Esau e halawai me ia, apo mai la ia ia, kau iho la ma kona a-i, a honi iho la ia ia: a uwe iho la laua.
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.”
Alawa ae la kona mau maka, ike ae i na wahine a me na kamalii; ninau mai la ia, Owai lakou nei me oe? I aku la kela, O lakou no na keiki a ke Akua i haawi lokomaikai mai ai i kau kauwa.
6 Then the female slaves and their children came near and bowed in front of Esau.
Alaila neenee mai la na kauwawahine, o laua me na keiki a laua, a kulou iho la lakou.
7 Then Leah and her children came and bowed down. Finally Joseph and Rachel came near and bowed down.
Neenee mai la hoi o Lea me kana mau keiki, a kulou iho la lakou: a mahope iho, neenee mai la o Iosepa me Rahela, a kulou iho la laua.
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.”
Ninau mai la kela, Heaha ia oe kela poe nui a pau i halawai me au? I aku la oia, He mea ia e loaa mai ai ke aloha o kuu haku.
9 But Esau replied, “My [younger] brother, I have enough animals! Keep for yourself the animals that you have!”
I mai la kela, He nui no ka'u, e kuu kaikaina, ia oe no kau mea.
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!
I aku la o Iakoba, Aole, ke noi aku nei au ia oe, ina i loaa ia'u ke alohaia imua on, e lawe oe i ka'u makana ma ko'u lima: no ka mea, ua ike iho nei au i kou maka, e like me kuu ike ana i ka maka o ke Akua, a ua oluolu mai oe ia'u.
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.
Ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e lawe oe i ka'u hoomaikai ana i haawiia ku nau; no ka mea, ua lokomaikai mai ke Akua ia'u, a no ka mea, ua lako hoi au. Koi aku la oia ia ia, a lawe hoi kela.
12 Then Esau said, “Let’s continue traveling together, and I will show the road to you.”
I mai la kela, e neenee aku kakou i ko kakou hele ana, a e hele hoi au imua ou.
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.
I aku la oia ia ia, Ua ike no kuu haku, he palupalu na kamalii, a me au no na hipa hapai a me na bipi hapai: ina e hoolalelaleia lakou i ka la hookahi, e pau ka ohana holoholona i ka make.
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].”
Ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e hele e aku kuu haku mamua o kana kauwa ma kela kapa; a na'u no e hele malie aku, e like me ka hiki ana o na holoholona a me na kamalii ke hele imua o'u, a hiki aku au i kuu haku ma Seira.
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.”
I mai la o Esau, E pono paha na'u e waiho me oe i kekahi poe kanaka o'u. I aku la ia, No ke aha hoi ia? ina e loaa ia'u ke alohaia imua o kuu haku.
16 So on that day Esau left to return to Seir.
A hoi hou aku la o Esau ia la i kona hele ana i Seira.
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’].
Hele aku la o Iakoba i Sukota, a kukulu ia i hale nona, a hana iho la i hale kamala no kona poe holoholona: nolaila, i kapaia'i ka inoa o ia wahi, o i Sukota.
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.
Hele pomaikai aku la o Iakoba i kekahi kulanakauhale o Sekema, ma ka aina o Kanaana ia ia i hoi mai ai mai Padanarama mai, a kukulu iho la ia i kona halelewa imua o ua kulanakauhale la.
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.
Kuai aku la ia i kauwahi o ka aina, kahi ana i kukulu ai i kona halelewa, ma ka lima o na keiki a Hamora a ka makuakane o Sekema, i na apana kala he haneri.
20 He built a stone altar there, and named it El-Elohe Israel, [which means ‘God, the God of Israel].’
Malaila oia i hana'i i kuahu, a kapa iho la i kona inoa, o Elelohe-Iseraela.
