Farawa 33
1 Yaƙub ya ɗaga ido ke nan, sai ga Isuwa yana zuwa tare da mutanensa ɗari huɗu; saboda haka sai ya rarraba’ya’yan wa Liyatu, Rahila da kuma matan nan biyu masu hidima.
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;
2 Ya sa matan nan biyu masu hidima da’ya’yansu a gaba, Liyatu da’ya’yanta biye, sa’an nan Rahila da Yusuf a baya.
and he setteth the maid-servants and their children first, and Leah and her children behind, and Rachel and Joseph last.
3 Shi kansa ya sha gabansu, ya rusuna har ƙasa sau bakwai, kafin ya kai kusa da inda ɗan’uwansa Isuwa yake.
And he himself passed over before them, and boweth himself to the earth seven times, until his drawing nigh unto his brother,
4 Amma Isuwa ya ruga a guje ya sadu da Yaƙub ya rungume shi; ya faɗa a wuyansa ya sumbace shi. Suka kuma yi kuka.
and Esau runneth to meet him, and embraceth him, and falleth on his neck, and kisseth him, and they weep;
5 Sa’an nan Isuwa ya ɗaga ido ya ga mata da’ya’ya. Ya yi tambaya, “Su wane ne waɗannan tare da kai?” Yaƙub ya amsa, “Su ne’ya’yan da Allah cikin alheri ya ba bawanka.”
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.'
6 Sai matan nan biyu masu hidima da’ya’yansu suka matso kusa suka durƙusa.
And the maid-servants draw nigh, they and their children, and bow themselves;
7 Biye da su, Liyatu da’ya’yanta suka zo suka rusuna. A ƙarshe duka, sai Yusuf da Rahila suka zo, su ma suka rusuna.
and Leah also draweth nigh, and her children, and they bow themselves; and afterwards Joseph hath drawn nigh with Rachel, and they bow themselves.
8 Isuwa ya yi tambaya, “Me kake nufi da dukan abubuwan nan da na sadu da su ana korarsu?” Sai Yaƙub ya ce, “Don in sami tagomashi a idanunka ne, ranka yă daɗe.”
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.'
9 Amma Isuwa ya ce, “Na riga na sami abin da ya ishe ni, ɗan’uwana. Riƙe abin da kake da shi don kanka.”
And Esau saith, 'I have abundance, my brother, let it be to thyself that which thou hast.'
10 Sai Yaƙub ya ce, “A’a, ina roƙonka, in na sami tagomashi a idanunka, sai ka karɓi wannan kyautai daga gare ni. Gama ganin fuskarka kamar ganin fuskar Allah ne, yanzu da ka karɓe ni da farin ciki.
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;
11 Ina roƙonka ka karɓi kyautar da aka kawo maka, gama Allah ya yi mini alheri kuma ina da kome da nake bukata.” Ganin yadda Yaƙub ya nace, sai Isuwa ya karɓa.
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,
12 Sa’an nan Isuwa ya ce, “Bari mu tafi, zan yi maka rakiya.”
and saith, 'Let us journey and go on, and I go on before thee.'
13 Amma Yaƙub ya ce masa, “Ranka yă daɗe, ka san cewa’ya’yan ƙanana ne, dole in lura da tumaki da shanun da suke shayar da jariransu. In aka kore su da gaggawa a rana guda kaɗai, dukan dabbobin za su mutu.
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.
14 Saboda haka bari ranka yă daɗe yă sha gaban bawansa, ni kuma in tafi a hankali bisa ga saurin abin da ake kora a gabana da kuma saurin’ya’yan, sai na iso wurinka ranka yă daɗe, a Seyir.”
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.'
15 Sai Isuwa ya ce, “To, bari in bar waɗansu mutanena tare da kai.” Yaƙub ya ce, “Amma me ya sa za ka yi haka? Bari dai in sami tagomashi a idanunka ranka yă daɗe.”
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.'
16 Saboda haka a wannan rana Isuwa ya kama hanyar komawa zuwa Seyir.
And turn back on that day doth Esau on his way to Seir;
17 Yaƙub kuwa, ya tafi Sukkot, inda ya gina wuri domin kansa, ya kuma yi bukkoki domin dabbobinsa. Shi ya sa aka kira wurin Sukkot.
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.
18 Bayan Yaƙub ya zo daga Faddan Aram, ya iso lafiya a birnin Shekem a Kan’ana, ya kuma kafa sansani a ƙofar birni.
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,
19 Ya sayi fili daga’ya’yan Hamor maza, mahaifin Shekem inda ya kafa tentinsa, a bakin azurfa ɗari.
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;
20 A can ya kafa bagade ya kuma kira shi El Elohe Isra’ila.
and he setteth up there an altar, and proclaimeth at it God — the God of Israel.
