Farawa 32
1 Yaƙub shi ma ya kama hanyarsa, sai mala’ikun Allah suka sadu da shi.
UJakhobe laye wahamba ngeyakhe indlela, wasehlangabezwa yizingilosi zikaNkulunkulu.
2 Sa’ad da Yaƙub ya gan su sai ya ce, “Wannan sansanin Allah ne!” Saboda haka ya kira wannan wuri Mahanayim.
Wathi ezibona uJakhobe wathi, “Leli libandla likaNkulunkulu!” Indawo leyo waseyibiza ngokuthi yiMahanayimi.
3 Sai Yaƙub ya aiki manzanni su sha gabansa zuwa wurin ɗan’uwansa Isuwa a ƙasar Seyir, a ƙauyen Edom.
UJakhobe wathuma izithunywa ukuba zihambe phambili kwakhe kumnewabo u-Esawu elizweni laseSeyiri, ilizwe lika-Edomi.
4 Ya umarce su, “Ga abin da za ku faɗa wa maigidana Isuwa, ‘Bawanka Yaƙub ya ce, na yi zama tare da Laban na kuwa kasance a can sai yanzu.
Wazilaya wathi, “Nanku okumele likutsho enkosini yami u-Esawu, ‘Inceku yakho uJakhobe uthi bengihlezi loLabhani njalo ngihlale khona kwaze kwaba khathesi.
5 Ina da shanu da jakuna, tumaki da awaki, bayi maza da mata. Yanzu ina aika da wannan saƙo zuwa ga ranka yă daɗe, don in sami tagomashi a idanunka.’”
Ngilenkomo labobabhemi, ngilezimvu, lembuzi, njalo ngilezinceku lezincekukazi. Khathesi-ke sengithumela lelilizwi enkosini yami, ukuze ngithole umusa emehlweni akho.’”
6 Sa’ad da manzannin suka komo wurin Yaƙub, suka ce, “Mun tafi wurin ɗan’uwanka Isuwa, yanzu kuwa yana zuwa ya sadu da kai, da kuma mutum ɗari huɗu tare da shi.”
Kwathi izithunywa sezibuya kuJakhobe zathi, “Sihambile kumfowenu u-Esawu, okwamanje uyeza ukuzokuhlangabeza, ulamadoda angamakhulu amane eza lawo.”
7 Da tsoro mai yawa da kuma damuwa, Yaƙub ya rarraba mutanen da suke tare da shi ƙungiyoyi biyu, haka ma garkunan tumaki da awaki, da garkunan shanu da raƙuma.
UJakhobe wafikelwa yikwesaba lokukhathazeka okukhulu wasesehlukanisa phakathi abantu ayelabo baba ngamaqembu amabili, wenzenjalo lemihlambini yezimvu leyenkomo lamakamela lawo.
8 Ya yi tunani, “In Isuwa ya zo ya fāɗa wa ƙungiya ɗaya, sai ƙungiya ɗayan da ta ragu ta tsira.”
Wakhumbula wathi, “Nxa u-Esawu angafika ahlasele elinye iqembu, leloqembu eliseleyo lingahle libaleke.”
9 Sa’an nan Yaƙub ya yi addu’a, “Ya Allah na mahaifina Ibrahim, Allah na mahaifina Ishaku. Ya Ubangiji kai da ka ce mini, ‘Koma ƙasarka zuwa wurin danginka, zan kuma sa ka yi albarka.’
UJakhobe wasekhuleka wathi, “Oh Nkulunkulu kababa u-Abhrahama, Nkulunkulu kababa u-Isaka, Thixo, wena owathi kimi, ‘Buyela elizweni lakini lasezihlotsheni zakho, ngizakwenza uphumelele,’
10 Ban cancanci dukan alheri da amincin da ka nuna wa bawanka ba. Da sanda kaɗai nake sa’ad da na ƙetare wannan Urdun, amma ga shi yanzu na zama ƙungiyoyi biyu.
mina kangiwufanelanga wonke umusa lokuthembeka okutshengise inceku yakho. Ngangiphethe intonga yami zwi mhla ngichapha iJodani leli, kodwa khathesi sengingamaqembu amabili.
11 Ka cece ni, ina roƙonka daga hannun ɗan’uwana Isuwa, gama ina tsoro zai zo yă fāɗa mini, yă karkashe mu duka,’ya’ya da iyaye.
Ngiyakhuleka ngithi ngisindise esandleni somfowethu u-Esawu, ngoba ngiyesaba ukuthi uzakuza angihlasele, kanye labesifazane labantwababo.
12 Amma ka riga ka faɗa, ‘Tabbatacce zan sa ka yi albarka. Zan kuma sa zuriyarka su zama kamar yashin teku da ba a iya ƙirgawa.’”
Kodwa wena uthe, ‘Ngempela ngizakwenza uphumelele ngenze lezizukulwane zakho zibe njengetshebetshebe lolwandle elingeke labalwa.’”
13 Ya kwana a can, daga cikin abin da yake tare da shi kuwa, ya zaɓi kyauta domin ɗan’uwansa Isuwa,
Wahlala khonapho ngalobobusuku, kwathi kulokho ayelakho wakhetha isipho sikamnewabo u-Esawu:
14 awaki ɗari biyu da bunsurai ashirin, tumaki ɗari biyu da raguna ashirin,
imbuzikazi ezingamakhulu amabili lempongo ezingamatshumi amabili; izimvu ezinsikazi ezingamakhulu amabili lenqama ezingamatshumi amabili;
15 raƙuma mata talatin tare da ƙananansu, shanu arba’in da bijimai goma, jakuna mata ashirin da kuma jakuna maza goma.
amakamela amasikazi angamatshumi amathathu lamathole awo; amankomokazi angamatshumi amane lenkunzi ezilitshumi; kanye labobabhemi abasikazi abangamatshumi amabili lemiduna yawo elitshumi.
16 Ya sa su a ƙarƙashin kulawar bayinsa, kowane kashin garke ya kasance a ware. Ya ce wa bayinsa, “Ku sha gabana, ku kuma ba da rata tsakanin garke da garke.”
Wakugcinisa izisebenzi zakhe konke, umhlambi munye wema wodwa, wathi kuzo izisebenzi zakhe, “Hambani phambi kwami, njalo litshiye ibanga phakathi kwemihlambi.”
17 Ya umarci wanda yake jagorar ya ce, “Sa’ad da ɗan’uwana Isuwa ya sadu da ku ya kuma yi tambaya, ‘Ku na wane ne, ina za ku, kuma wane ne mai dukan dabbobin nan da suke gabanku?’
Lowo owayephambili wamlaya wathi, “Nxa umnewethu u-Esawu ekuhlangabeza afike abuze athi, ‘Ungokabani wena, njalo uya ngaphi, njalo ngezikabani zonke lezizifuyo eziphambi kwakho?’
18 Sai ku ce, ‘Na bawanka Yaƙub ne. Kyauta ce wa maigidana Isuwa, yana kuma tafe a bayanmu.’”
Ubokuthi, ‘Ngezenceku yakho uJakhobe. Ziyisipho esithunyelwe inkosi yami u-Esawu, laye uyeza nje emuva kwethu.’”
19 Yaƙub ya kuma umarci na biyu da na uku da kuma dukan waɗansu da suka bi garkunan, “Sai ku faɗa irin abu guda ga Isuwa sa’ad da kuka sadu da shi.
Walaya njalo isisebenzi sesibili, lesesithathu lazozonke ezinye ezaziqhuba imihlambi wathi: “Kumele likhulume into efanayo ku-Esawu nxa lihlangana laye.
20 Ku kuma tabbata kun ce, ‘Bawanka Yaƙub yana tafe a bayanmu.’” Gama Yaƙub ya yi tunani cewa, “Zan kwantar da ran Isuwa da waɗannan kyautai, kafin mu sadu fuska da fuska, wataƙila yă karɓe shi.”
Njalo lingakhohlwa ukuthi, ‘Inceku yakho uJakhobe iyeza ngemva kwethu.’” Ngoba wacabanga wathi: “Ngizamthoba ngezipho lezi engizithumela phambili; nxa sengimbona muva mhlawumbe uzangamukela.”
21 Saboda haka kyautai Yaƙub suka sha gabansa, amma shi kansa ya kwana a sansani.
Ngakho izipho zikaJakhobe zahanjiswa, zamandulela, kodwa yena wasala ezihonqweni ubusuku bonke.
22 A wannan dare Yaƙub ya tashi ya ɗauki matansa biyu, da matan nan biyu masu hidima da’ya’yansa goma sha ɗaya ya haye rafin Yabbok.
Ngalobobusuku uJakhobe waphakama wathatha omkakhe bobabili, lezincekukazi zakhe zombili kanye lamadodana akhe alitshumi lamunye wawela izibuko likaJabhoki.
23 Bayan ya sa suka haye rafin, haka ma ya tura dukan mallakarsa zuwa hayen.
Esebachaphisile wabuye wachaphisa yonke imfuyo yakhe.
24 Saboda haka sai aka bar Yaƙub shi kaɗai. Sai ga wani mutum ya zo ya yi kokawa da shi har wayewar gari.
Ngakho uJakhobe wasala yedwa, indoda ethile yabindana laye kwaze kwaba semathathakusa.
25 Da mutumin ya ga cewa bai fi ƙarfin Yaƙub ba, sai ya bugi kwarin ƙashin cinyar Yaƙub, sai gaɓar ƙashin cinyarsa ya goce, a sa’ad da yake kokawa da mutumin.
Leyondoda yathi ngokubona ukuthi kayimehluli uJakhobe, yambamba inyonga, inyonga yakhe yakhumuka elokhu ebindana laleyondoda.
26 Sa’an nan mutumin ya ce, “Bar ni in tafi, gama gari ya waye.” Amma Yaƙub ya amsa ya ce, “Ba zan bar ka ka tafi ba, sai ka sa mini albarka.”
Indoda yasisithi, “Ngiyekela ngihambe ngoba sokusile.” Kodwa uJakhobe wamphendula wathi, “Kangisoze ngikwekele uhambe ngaphandle kokuthi ungibusise.”
27 Mutumin ya tambaye shi ya ce, “Mene ne sunanka?” Yaƙub ya amsa ya ce, “Yaƙub.”
Indoda yambuza yathi, “Ungubani ibizo lakho na?” Wathi, “NginguJakhobe.”
28 Sai mutumin ya ce, “Sunanka ba zai ƙara zama Yaƙub ba, amma Isra’ila, gama ka yi kokawa da Allah da mutane, ka kuwa yi rinjaye.”
Indoda yasisithi, “Ibizo lakho kalisayikuba nguJakhobe, kodwa u-Israyeli, ngoba ulwe loNkulunkulu kanye labantu wanqoba.”
29 Yaƙub ya ce, “Ina roƙonka, faɗa mini sunanka.” Amma mutumin ya amsa ya ce, “Me ya sa kake tambayata sunana?” Sa’an nan ya albarkace shi.
UJakhobe wathi, “Akungitshele ibizo lakho.” Kodwa waphendula wathi “Ulibuzelani ibizo lami na?” Wasembusisa khonapho.
30 Saboda haka Yaƙub ya kira wurin Feniyel, yana cewa, “Domin na ga Allah fuska da fuska, duk da haka aka bar ni da rai.”
Ngakho uJakhobe wabiza indawo leyo ngokuthi yiPheniyeli esithi, “Kungoba ngimbonile uNkulunkulu ubuso ngobuso, kodwa impilo yami kayilinyazwanga.”
31 Rana ta yi sama a sa’ad da ya wuce Fenuwel yana kuma ɗingishi saboda ƙashin cinyarsa.
Ilanga lamphumela esedlula ePheniweli, ehamba eqhugezela ngenxa yenyonga yakhe.
32 Wannan ya sa har wa yau Isra’ilawa ba sa cin jijiyar ƙashin cinya wadda take a kwarin ƙashin cinya, domin an taɓa kwarin ƙashin cinyar Yaƙub kusa da jijiyar.
Ngakho-ke kuze kube lamuhla abako-Israyeli kabayidli inyama elomsipha osuka enyongeni, ngoba inyonga kaJakhobe yenyela eduze lomsipha.
