< 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;
Le nampiandrà’ Iakòbe o fihaino’eo naho niisa’e te nimb’ ama’e mb’eo t’i Esa­ve reketse ty lahilahy efa-jato. Aa le zinara’e amy Leae naho amy Rahkele vaho amy mpitoro’e ampela roe rey o ajajao.
2 and he setteth the maid-servants and their children first, and Leah and her children behind, and Rachel and Joseph last.
Na­noe’e aolo’e ey o mpitoroñeo rekets’ o ana’eo, le nanonjohy iereo t’i Leae naho o ana’eo vaho amboly ao t’i Rahkele naho Iosefe.
3 And he himself passed over before them, and boweth himself to the earth seven times, until his drawing nigh unto his brother,
Niary mb’aolo’ iereo mb’eo re nibokok’ an-tane im-pito am-pañarineañe i zoke’ey
4 and Esau runneth to meet him, and embraceth him, and falleth on his neck, and kisseth him, and they weep;
Aa le nilay mb’ama’e mb’eo t’i Esave niambotrak’ amy fititia’ey le norofa’e vaho sambe nangoihoy.
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.'
Niandra t’i Esave nahaoniñe o rakemba reketse keleiañeo, le hoe re, Ia o mindre lia ama’oo? Hoe re: O anake natolon’Añahare am-patarihañe amo mpitoro’oo.
6 And the maid-servants draw nigh, they and their children, and bow themselves;
Nitotoke mb’eo amy zao o mpitoroñ’ ampela rekets’ anakeo, le nibokok’ ambane;
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.
nimb’eo ka t’i Leae rekets’ anake naho nibokoke; nañarine amy zao t’Iosefe naho i Rahkele sindre niondreke.
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.'
Hoe t’i Esave, Ino ty dika’ i lia’e maro nikovovoke nifanalaka amakoy? Tinoi’ Iakòbe ty hoe, Ty hahatendrehañe fañisohañe am-pivazohoa’ i talèkoy.
9 And Esau saith, 'I have abundance, my brother, let it be to thyself that which thou hast.'
Fa hoe t’i Esave, Mahàtsek’ ahy o ahikoo, ry rahalahiko, tano ho azo o azoo.
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;
Hoe t’Iakòbe, Aiy, ie nahatrea ìsok’ am-pahaisaha’o, le rambeso an-tañako o ravoravoo; amy te izaho mahaisake o lahara’oo, le hoe mahatrea ty laharan’ Añahare, vaho t’ie nino’o.
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,
Ehe rambeso i ravoravo binanabanako, fa niferenaiñan’ Añahare, naho maro o amakoo. Le nosihe’e vaho rinambe’e.
12 and saith, 'Let us journey and go on, and I go on before thee.'
Le hoe re, Antao hitrao-dia, le hiaolo anahareo iraho.
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.
Fe hoe ty natoi’e, Fohi’ ty talèko te kamba o ajajao, vaho amako o rene’e naho añombe-vave rohy, aa naho ilosoran-tehake ndra andro raike le fonga ho mate o hareo.
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.'
Ehe te hañavelo aolo’ i mpitoro’ey mb’eo ty talèko, hisitsirako mora mb’eo ty amo hare mangovovok’ aolo ahio naho ty amy filesalesa’ o ajajao, ampara’ te pok’ amy talèko e Seire añe.
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.'
Aa le hoe t’i Esave, Angao han­divako ama’o ondaty amakoo. Fa hoe re, Fa akore? Ee t’ie hahatrea fañisohañe am-pahaisaha’ i talèkoy.
16 And turn back on that day doth Esau on his way to Seir;
Aa le nimpoly mb’e Seire añe amy àndro zay t’i Esave.
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.
Le nimb’e Sokote añe t’Iakòbe le nañoren-kivoho, naho nam­boa­ra’e fialofañe o añombe’eo, vaho natao Sokote i toetsey.
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,
Niavy tsy añolañe an-drova’ i Sikeme an-tane Kanàne eo t’Iakòbe boake Padan’ arama añe, vaho nañoren-kivoho aolo’ i rovay ey.
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;
Le vinili’e bogady zato amo ana’ i Khamòre rae’ i Sikemeo ty ila’ i teteke nampipoha’e i kivoho’eiy.
20 and he setteth up there an altar, and proclaimeth at it God — the God of Israel.
Le nañoren-kitrely eo ze natao’e El-Elohe-Israele.
