< Mose 1 32 >
1 Yakob kple eƒe amewo gadze mɔ, eye mawudɔlawo va do goe.
Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻa Sēkope ʻi hono hala, pea fakafetaulaki mai kiate ia ʻae kau ʻāngelo ʻae ʻOtua.
2 Esi Yakob kpɔ wo la, edo ɣli be, “Mawu ƒe asaɖae nye esia!” Eya ta ena ŋkɔ teƒea be Mahanaim.
Pea kuo mamata ʻa Sēkope kiate kinautolu, pea pehē ʻe ia, “Ko e kau tau eni ʻae ʻOtua: pea naʻa ne ui ʻae hingoa ʻoe potu ko ia, ko Mehanemi.”
3 Yakob dɔ amewo ɖe foa Esau gbɔ le Edom le Seirnyigba dzi.
Pea fekau ʻe Sēkope ʻae kau talafekau ke muʻomuʻa ʻiate ia ki hono taʻokete ko ʻIsoa, ʻi he fonua ko Seia, ʻi he fonua ko ʻItomi.
4 Egblɔ na wo bena, “Ale miagblɔ na nye aƒetɔ Esau enye si: ‘Nye Wò dɔla Yakob, meyi ɖanɔ mía nyrui, Laban gbɔ va se ɖe egbe.
Pea ne fekau kiate kinautolu, ʻo pehē, “Te mou lea pehē ki hoku ʻeiki ko ʻIsoa; ʻoku pehē mai ʻa hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ko Sēkope, Naʻaku nofo ʻāunofo mo Lepani peau nofo mo ia ʻo aʻu ki he kuonga ni.
5 Fifia nyiwo, tedziwo, alẽwo kple subɔla geɖewo, ŋutsuwo kple nyɔnuwo siaa le asinye. Mele ame siawo ɖom ɖa be woana nyanya wò nye aƒetɔ be megbɔna, eye mele mɔ kpɔm be àxɔ mí nɔvitɔe.’”
Pea kuo u maʻu ʻae fanga pulu mo e fanga ʻasi mo e ngaahi fanga manu, mo e kau tangata tauhi, mo e kau fefine tauhi, pea kuo u fekau ke fakahā ia ki hoku ʻeiki, koeʻuhi ke u lelei ʻi ho ʻao.”
6 Ame dɔdɔawo trɔ tso Esau gbɔ va gblɔ na Yakob be Esau gbɔna Yakob kpe ge kple ame alafa ene!
Pea toe liu mai ʻae kau tangata kia Sēkope, ʻo nau pehē, “Naʻa mau hoko ki ho taʻokete ko ʻIsoa, pea vakai, ʻoku haʻu ia foki ke fakafetaulaki mai kiate koe, mo e kau tangata ʻe fāngeau.”
7 Vɔvɔ̃ ɖo Yakob. Ema eƒe amewo kple lãhawo kpakple kposɔwo ɖe akpa eve,
Pea naʻe manavahē ai ʻa Sēkope, ʻo mamahi lahi: pea ne vaeua ʻae kakai naʻe ʻiate ia, pea mo e fanga sipi, mo e fanga manu lalahi, pea mo e fanga kāmeli.
8 elabena egblɔ be, “Ne Esau adze hatsotso ɖeka dzi la, ɖewohĩ hatsotso evelia me tɔwo ate ŋu asi.”
Pea ne pehē, “Kapau ʻe haʻu ʻa ʻIsoa ki he kakai ʻe taha ʻo taaʻi ia, pea ko e kakai ʻe toe te nau hao.”
9 Tete Yakob do gbe ɖa be “O, tɔgbuinye Abraham kple fofonye Isak ƒe Mawu, O, Yehowa, wò ame si gblɔ nam be matrɔ va nye ƒometɔwo ƒe anyigba dzi, eye nèdo ŋugbe be yeawɔ nyui nam la,
Pea pehē ʻe Sēkope, “E ʻOtua ʻo ʻeku tamai ko ʻEpalahame, mo e ʻOtua ʻo ʻeku tamai ko ʻAisake, ko e ʻEiki naʻa ke pehē mai kiate au, ‘Toe ʻalu ki ho fonua mo ho kāinga, pea te u fai lelei kiate koe:’
10 nyemedze na wò amenuveve si nèɖena fiaam edziedzi abe ale si nèdo ŋugbe nam ene o, elabena esi metso Yɔdan la, naneke menɔ asinye wu atizɔti ɖeka o! Ke azɔ la, mezu aʋakɔ eve!
ʻOku ʻikai te u taau au, mo e siʻi hifo ʻo hoʻo ʻaloʻofa kotoa pē, mo e moʻoni kotoa pē, ʻaia kuo ke fakahā ki hoʻo tamaioʻeiki: he naʻaku ʻalu mo hoku tokotoko pe ʻi he Sioatani ni; ka ko eni, kuo u hoko ko e kakai ʻe ua.
11 O, Yehowa, meɖe kuku na wò, ɖem tso tsɔtsrɔ̃ me le fonye Esau ƒe asi me, elabena mele vɔvɔ̃m ŋutɔ be ava ho aʋa ɖe nye ŋutɔ, srɔ̃nyewo kple vinyewo ŋu.
ʻOku ou kole kiate koe, fakahaofi au mei he nima ʻo hoku taʻokete mei he nima ʻo ʻIsoa: he ʻoku ou manavahē kiate ia, telia naʻa ne haʻu ʻo taaʻi au, pea mo e fale mo e fānau.
12 Ke èdo ŋugbe be yeawɔ nyui nam, eye yeana nye dzidzimeviwo nasɔ gbɔ abe ƒutake ene, eye womate ŋu axlẽ wo o.”
Pea naʻa ke pehē, ‘Te u fai lelei kiate koe, ʻo ngaohi ho hako ke tatau mo e ʻoneʻone ʻoe tahi, ʻaia ʻe ʻikai faʻa lau hono lahi.’”
13 Etsi afi ma dɔ, eye wòtia nu siwo nɔ esi la ƒe ɖe na foa Esau:
Pea mohe ia ʻi ai ʻi he pō ko ia pea naʻa ne fili mai ʻaia naʻe ofi kiate ia, ko e meʻaʻofa ki hono taʻokete ko ʻIsoa;
14 gbɔ̃nɔ alafa eve kple gbɔ̃tsu blaeve, alẽnɔ alafa eve kple agbo blaeve,
Ko e kosi fefine ʻe uangeau mo e kosi tangata ʻe uofulu, mo e sipi fefine ʻe uangeau, mo e sipitangata ʻe uofulu.
15 kposɔnɔ blaetɔ̃ kple wo viwo, nyinɔ blaene kple nyitsu ewo, tedzinɔ blaeve kple tedzitsu ewo.
Ko e kāmeli huhu ʻe tolungofulu mo honau ʻuhiki, mo e fanga pulu fefine ʻe fāngofulu, mo e pulu tangata ʻe hongofulu, mo e ʻasi fefine ʻe uofulu mo e ʻuhiki ʻe hongofulu.
16 Egblɔ na eƒe subɔlawo be woadze ŋgɔ kple lãha siawo, lãha ɖe sia ɖe nanɔ eɖokui si, eye dometsotso nanɔ wo dome.
Pea ne tuku fakafaʻahinga ia ki he nima ʻoe kau tauhi, pea ne pehē ki heʻene kau tamaioʻeiki, “Mou muʻomuʻa ʻiate au, ʻo fakavahavaha ʻae faʻahinga manu taki taha.”
17 Egblɔ na ame siwo le lãha gbãtɔ kplɔm la be ne wodo go Esau, eye wòbia wo be, “Afi ka yim miele? Ame ka ƒe subɔlawo mienye? Ame ka ƒe lãwoe nye esiawo?” la,
Pea fekau ia ki he ʻuluaki, ʻo pehē, “ʻOka fakafetaulaki mai hoku taʻokete ko ʻIsoa kiate koe, ʻo fehuʻi kiate koe, ʻo pehē, ‘Ko hai koe?’ pea, ‘ʻOku ke ʻalu ki fē?’ Pea ʻoku ʻa hai ʻena ʻi ho ʻao?
18 woaɖo eŋu be, “Wò subɔla, Yakob ƒe lãwoe. Wonye nunana na eƒe aƒetɔ Esau! Ele mía yome gbɔna!”
Pea ke lea ʻo pehē, ‘Ko e meʻa ʻa hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ko Sēkope, pea ko e meʻaʻofa ia kuo ne fekau ki hoku ʻeiki ko ʻIsoa; pea vakai, ʻoku ne muimui mai.’”
19 Yakob gblɔ nya mawo ke na lãkplɔla bubuawo hã be woagblɔ na Esau.
Pea naʻa ne fekau pehē ki hono toko ua, mo hono toko tolu, mo kinautolu kotoa pē naʻe muimui ki he fanga manu, ʻo pehē, “Te mou lea pehē ki hoku ʻeiki ko ʻIsoa, ʻoka mou ka fetaulaki mo ia.
20 Yakob ƒe tameɖoɖoe nye be yeakpata Esau kple nunanawo hafi yeado goe ŋkume kple ŋkume! Yakob kpɔ mɔ be, “Ɖewohĩ axɔ mí nyuie.”
Pea te mou pehē foki, ‘Vakai, ʻoku muimui mai ʻa hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ko Sēkope.’” He naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “Te u fakafiemālieʻi ia ʻaki ʻae meʻaʻofa, ʻe muʻomuʻa ʻiate au, pea te u toki mamata ki hono mata; heiʻilo pe te ne maʻu lelei au.”
21 Ale wòɖo nunanawo ɖa do ŋgɔ, eye Yakob gatsi asaɖa me dɔ.
Ko ia naʻe ʻave ai ʻae meʻaʻofa, ʻo nau muʻomuʻa ʻiate ia ki he kauvai ʻe taha; pea mohe ia ʻi he pō ko ia mo e kakai.
22 Le zã me la, Yakob fɔ, eye wòkplɔ srɔ̃a eveawo, eƒe kosi eveawo kple via wuiɖekɛawo, eye wotso Yɔdan tɔsisi la le tɔtsoƒe si ŋkɔe nye Yabok.
Pea tuʻu hake ia ʻi he pō ko ia ʻo ne ʻave hono ongo uaifi, mo ʻene ongo kaunanga, mo hono ngaahi foha ʻe toko hongofulu ma tokotaha, pea nau aʻa ʻi he aʻaʻanga ko Sapoki.
23 Ale wòkplɔ wo tso tɔ lae kple eƒe nunɔamesiwo katã.
Pea naʻa ne ʻave ʻakinautolu ʻo fekau ke nau aʻa ki he kauvai ʻe taha, pea ne ʻave mo ʻene meʻa kotoa pē.
24 Yakob trɔ va asaɖa la me, eye eya ɖeka nɔ afi ma. Ŋutsu aɖe te kame kplii va se ɖe fɔŋli.
Ka naʻe nofo tokotaha pe ʻa Sēkope; pea naʻe ai ʻae tangata naʻa na fefaʻuhi mo ia ʻo aʻu ki he mafoa ʻae ata.
25 Esi ŋutsu la kpɔ be yemate ŋu aɖu Yakob dzi o la, etɔ asi Yakob ƒe aligo, eye ƒuawo gli le enu.
Pea ʻi heʻene mamata ʻoku ʻikai te ne mālohi kiate ia, naʻa ne alasi ʻae tefito tupu ʻo Sēkope: pea naʻe homo ʻae tenga ʻo Sēkope, ʻi he ʻena fefaʻuhi mo ia.
26 Tete ŋutsu la gblɔ nɛ be, “Ɖe asi le ŋunye mayi, elabena ŋu le kekem.” Ke Yakob ɖo eŋu be, “Nyemele asi ɖe ge le ŋuwò o, negbe ɖeko nàyram hafi.”
Pea naʻa ne pehē, “Tuku au ke u ʻalu, he kuo maʻa ʻae ʻaho;” pea ne pehē, “E ʻikai te u tukuange koe ʻo kapau ʻe ʻikai te ke tāpuaki au.”
27 Ŋutsu la biae be, “Ŋkɔwò ɖe?” Eɖo eŋu be, “Yakob.”
Pea ne pehē kiate ia, “Ko hai ho hingoa?” Pea ne pehē, “Ko Sēkope.”
28 Ŋutsu la gblɔ nɛ be, “Womagayɔ wò azɔ nenema o! Woayɔ wò azɔ be Israel, ame si te kame kple Mawu. Esi nète kame kple Mawu ta la, àɖu amewo dzi.”
Pea pehē ʻe ia, “E ʻikai toe ui ho hingoa ko Sēkope, ka ko ʻIsileli: he ʻoku hangē ko ha ʻeiki ʻa hoʻo fai mālohi ki he ʻOtua, mo e tangata, pea kuo ke lavaʻi.”
29 Yakob biae be, “Wò hã ŋkɔwò ɖe?” Ŋutsu la ɖo eŋu be, “Nu ka ta nèbia ŋkɔnye ta ɖo.” Eye wòyrae le afi ma.
Pea fehuʻi ʻe Sēkope kiate ia, ʻOku ou kole kiate koe, ke ke tala mai ho hingoa. Pea pehē ʻe ia, “Ko e hā ʻoku ke fehuʻi ai ki hoku hingoa?” Pea naʻa ne tāpuaki ia ʻi ai.
30 Yakob na ŋkɔ teƒea be “Peniel” si gɔmee nye “Mawu ƒe ŋkume,” elabena egblɔ be, “Mekpɔ Mawu ŋkume kple ŋkume, gake metsi agbe.”
Pea ne ui ʻe Sēkope ʻae hingoa ʻoe potu ko ia, ko Penieli. He kuo u mamata ki he ʻOtua, ko e mata ki he mata, ka ʻoku ou kei moʻui.
31 Esi wògadze mɔ ko la, ɣe dze. Le eƒe aligoƒu si gli ta la, ede asi tɔtɔ me.
Pea ʻi heʻene ʻalu ʻi Penieli, naʻe hopo ʻae laʻā, pea naʻe ketu ia koeʻuhi ko hono tenga.
32 Esia ta Israelviwo meɖua ka titri si to lãwo ƒe aligo dzi o, elabena wotɔ asi ka si le Yakob ƒe aligokpeƒe la dzi.
Ko ia naʻe ʻikai kai ai ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻae uoua naʻe alasi, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he aoʻi tenga, ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ni: koeʻuhi naʻa ne alasi ʻae aoʻi tupu ʻo Sēkope ʻi he uoua naʻe mingi.
