Genesis 33
1 And Jacob lifteth up his eyes, and looketh, and lo, Esau is coming, and with him four hundred men; and he divideth the children unto Leah, and unto Rachel, and unto the two maid-servants;
Alò, Jacob te leve zye li. Li te gade, e gade byen, Ésaü t ap vini, ak kat-san òm avèk li. Konsa, li te divize pitit yo pami Léa avèk Rachel avèk de sèvant yo.
2 and he setteth the maid-servants and their children first, and Leah and her children behind, and Rachel and Joseph last.
Li te mete sèvant li yo devan, Léa avèk pitit li yo dèyè yo, e Rachel avèk Joseph an dènye.
3 And he himself passed over before them, and boweth himself to the earth seven times, until his drawing nigh unto his brother,
Men li menm te pran devan yo. Li te bese jis atè sèt fwa, jiskaske li te rive toupre frè li a.
4 and Esau runneth to meet him, and embraceth him, and falleth on his neck, and kisseth him, and they weep;
Ésaü te kouri al jwenn li. Li te anbrase li, te tonbe nan kou li e li te bo li. Konsa, yo te kriye.
5 and he lifteth up his eyes, and seeth the women and the children, and saith, 'What [are] these to thee?' And he saith, 'The children with whom God hath favoured thy servant.'
Li te leve zye li pou wè fanm yo, e li te di: “Se kilès? Sila yo ki avèk ou la a?” Epi Jacob te di: “Pitit ke Bondye nan gras li te bay sèvitè ou.”
6 And the maid-servants draw nigh, they and their children, and bow themselves;
Alò, sèvant lakay yo te vin pwoche avèk pitit pa yo, e yo te bese ba.
7 and Leah also draweth nigh, and her children, and they bow themselves; and afterwards Joseph hath drawn nigh with Rachel, and they bow themselves.
Léa tou te apwoche avèk pitit li yo. Yo te bese ba. Apre, Joseph te vini avèk Rachel, e yo te bese ba.
8 And he saith, 'What to thee [is] all this camp which I have met?' and he saith, 'To find grace in the eyes of my lord.'
Ésaü te di: “Kisa ou vle di ak tout ekip sa yo ke m rankontre la a?” Jacob te reponn: “Pou jwenn favè nan zye a mèt mwen.”
9 And Esau saith, 'I have abundance, my brother, let it be to thyself that which thou hast.'
Men Ésaü te di: “Mwen gen kont mwen, frè m; kite sa ou genyen yo rete pou ou.”
10 And Jacob saith, 'Nay, I pray thee, if, I pray thee, I have found grace in thine eyes, then thou hast received my present from my hand, because that I have seen thy face, as the seeing of the face of God, and thou art pleased with me;
Jacob te di: “Non, souple, si koulye a mwen twouve favè nan zye ou, alò, pran kado a nan men m, paske mwen wè figi ou tankou yon moun ki vin wè figi a Bondye, e ou te byen resevwa m.
11 receive, I pray thee, my blessing, which is brought to thee, because God hath favoured me, and because I have all [things];' and he presseth on him, and he receiveth,
Souple, pran kado ki te pote pou ou a, paske Bondye te aji avèk gras anvè mwen, e akoz sa m gen anpil:” Konsa, li te vin ankouraje l, e li te aksepte li.
12 and saith, 'Let us journey and go on, and I go on before thee.'
Konsa, Esaü te di: “Annou fè vwayaj nou. Ann ale, e mwen va ale devan nou.”
13 And he saith unto him, 'My lord knoweth that the children [are] tender, and the suckling flock and the herd [are] with me; when they have beaten them one day, then hath all the flock died.
Men Jacob te di li: “Mèt mwen, ou konnen ke timoun yo frajil, e ke bann mouton avèk twoupo k ap bay tete yo se yon tèt chaje pou mwen. Si yo pouse twòp, menm pou yon jou, yo va mouri.
14 Let my lord, I pray thee, pass over before his servant, and I — I lead on gently, according to the foot of the work which [is] before me, and to the foot of the children, until that I come unto my lord, to Seir.'
Souple, kite mèt mwen an pase devan sèvitè li. Mwen menm mwen va avanse pi dousman, selon nesesite bèt ki devan m yo, ak selon vitès a timoun yo, jis lè m rive vè mèt mwen an nan Séir.”
15 And Esau saith, 'Let me, I pray thee, place with thee some of the people who [are] with me;' and he said, 'Why [is] this? I find grace in the eyes of my lord.'
Ésaü te di: “Souple, kite mwen ba ou kèk nan moun ki avè m yo.” Men li te di: “Poukisa ou fè sa? Kite mwen jwenn favè nan zye a mèt mwen an.”
16 And turn back on that day doth Esau on his way to Seir;
Konsa, Ésaü te fè wout li pou Séir menm jou sa a.
17 and Jacob hath journeyed to Succoth, and buildeth to himself a house, and for his cattle hath made booths, therefore hath he called the name of the place Succoth.
Jacob te vwayaje a Succoth. Li te bati pou li menm yon kay, e li te fè pak pou tout bèt li yo, epi pou sa, yo rele plas la Succoth.
18 And Jacob cometh in to Shalem, a city of Shechem, which [is] in the land of Canaan, in his coming from Padan-Aram, and encampeth before the city,
Alò, Jacob te rive san pwoblèm nan vil Sichem nan peyi Canaan, lè li te sòti Paddan-Aram. Li te fè kan an devan vil la.
19 and he buyeth the portion of the field where he hath stretched out his tent, from the hand of the sons of Hamor, father of Shechem, for a hundred kesitah;
Li te achte yon mòso tè kote li te monte tant li nan men fis Hamor yo, papa Sichem nan, pou sòm a san pyès lajan.
20 and he setteth up there an altar, and proclaimeth at it God — the God of Israel.
Alò, la li te monte yon lotèl, e li te rele li El-Elohé-Israël.
