Kinohi 32
1 HELE aku la o Iakoba i kona hele ana, a halawai mai la na anela o ke Akua me ia.
Jacob went on his way, and the angels of God met him.
2 A ike aku la o Iakoba ia lakou, i aku la ia, O ka puali kaua keia o ke Akua: a kapa iho la ia i ka inoa o ia wahi, o I Mahanaima.
When he saw them, Jacob said, "This is God's camp." He called the name of that place Mahanaim.
3 Hoouna aku la o Iakoba i na elele imua ona io Esau la i kona kaikuaana, ma ka aina o Seira, oia ka aina o Edoma.
Jacob sent messengers ahead of him to Esau, his brother, to the land of Seir, the region of Edom.
4 Kauoha aku la ia ia lakou, i aku la, Penei ka oukou e olelo aku ai i kuu haku, ia Esau; Ke i mai nei o kau kauwa o Iakoba penei, Ua noho pu au me Labana, ua kali aku no wau ilaila a hiki i neia manawa.
He commanded them, saying, "This is what you shall tell my lord, Esau: 'This is what your servant, Jacob, says. I have lived as a foreigner with Laban, and stayed until now.
5 Ia'u no na bipi, na hoki, na holoholona, me na kauwakane a me na kauwawahine; a ua hoouna aku no wau e hai aku i kuu haku, i loaa ia'u ke alohaia imua o kou maka.
I have cattle, donkeys, flocks, male servants, and female servants. I have sent to tell my lord, that I may find favor in your sight.'"
6 Hoi hou mai la na elele io Iakoba la, i mai la, Hele aku la makou i kou kaikuaana io Esau la; a ke hele mai nei hoi oia e halawai me oe, a me ia na haneri kanaka eha.
The messengers returned to Jacob, saying, "We came to your brother Esau. Not only that, but he comes to meet you, and four hundred men with him."
7 Alaila, makau nui iho la o Iakoba, a ua pilikia loa: mahele ae la oia i na kanaka me ia, i na holoholona, i na bipi a me na kamelo, elua poe;
Then Jacob was very afraid and was distressed. He divided the people who were with him, and the flocks, and the herds, and the camels, into two camps;
8 I aku la, Ina e hele mai o Esau, a pepehi mai i kekahi poe, alaila e pakele ka poe i koe.
and he said, "If Esau comes to the one camp, and strikes it, then the other camp will escape."
9 I aku la o Iakoba, E ke Akua o kun kupunakane o Aberahama, ke Akua o kuu makuakane o Isaaka, e Iehova, ka mea nana i olelo mai ia'u, E hoi hou aku oe i kou aina, a i kou poe hoahanau, a e lokomaikai aku no au ia oe:
Jacob said, "God of my father Abraham, and God of my father Isaac, who said to me, 'Return to your country, and to your relatives, and I will do you good,'
10 Aole au e pono no na lokomaikai a pau a me ka oiaio a pau au i hoike mai ai, i kau kauwa nei; no ka mea, me kuu kookoo iho i hele mai ai au ma keia kapa o loredane; a ua lilo no wau ano i elua poe.
I am not worthy of the least of all the loving kindnesses and of all the faithfulness which you have shown to your servant; for with just my staff I passed over this Jordan, and now I have become two camps.
11 Ke pule aku nei au ia oe, e hoopakele ae ae ia'u mai ka lima aku o kuu kaikuaana, mai ka lima o Esau: no ka mea, ke makau nei au ia ia, o hele mai nei oia e pepehi mai ia'u me ka makuwahine a me na kamalii.
Please deliver me from the hand of my brother, from the hand of Esau: for I fear that he will come and attack me and the mothers with the children.
12 Ua olelo mai oe, E lokomaikai io no wau ia oe, a e hoonui au i kau poe mamo e like me ke one o ke kai, aole e pau lakou i ka heluia no ka lehulehu.
You said, 'I will surely do you good and make your descendants as the sand of the sea, which can't be counted because there are so many.'"
13 Moe iho la ia malaila ia po; lalau aku la ia i na mea i loaa i kona lima, i makana na kona kaikuaana, na Esau,
So he spent the night there and selected from what he had acquired a present for his brother Esau:
14 I elua haneri kao wahine, me na kao kane he iwakalua; elua haneri hipa wahine, me na hipa kane he iwakalua,
two hundred female goats and twenty male goats, two hundred ewes and twenty rams,
15 He kanakolu kamelo waiu, me ka lakou mau keiki; he kanaha bipi wahine, me na bipi kane he umi; he iwakalua hoki wahine a me na hokikeiki he umi.
thirty milk camels with their young, forty cows, ten bulls, twenty female donkeys and ten male donkeys.
16 Haawi aku la oia ia mau mea i ka lima o kana poe kauwa, a kaawale kekahi poe me kahi poe; i aku la ia i kana poe kauwa, E hele e aku oukou mamua o'u, a e hookaawale i kahi poe me kahi poe.
He entrusted them into the hands of his servants as separate herds, and said to his servants, "Pass over before me, and keep some distance between the herds."
17 Kauoha aku la ia i ka mea i hele mamua, i aku la, A halawai mai ko'u kaikuaana o Esau me oe, a ninau mai ia oe, i ka i ana mai, Nowai oe? Mahea oe e hele nei? Nawai hoi keia poe mamua ou?
He instructed the first, saying, "When Esau my brother meets you and asks you, saying, 'Whose are you? Where are you going? Whose are these ahead of you?'
18 Alaila, e olelo aku oe, Na kau kauwa, na Iakoba lakou nei, ua hoounaia mai, i makana na ko'u haku na Esau: eia ae hoi oia mahope o makou.
Then you shall say, 'They are your servant, Jacob's. It is a present sent to my lord Esau. And look, he also is behind us.'"
19 Pela hoi oia i kauoha aku ai i ka lua a me ke kolu, a me ka poe a pau i hahai mahope o na pua holoholona, i ka i ana, Pela hoi oukou e olelo aku ai ia Esau, i ka wa e loaa'i ia oukou ia.
He instructed also the second, and the third, and all that followed the herds, saying, "This is how you are to speak to Esau, when you find him.
20 E i aku hoi oukou, Eia ae kau kauwa o Iakoba mahope o makou. No ka mea, i iho la ia, E hoolaulea aku au ia ia i ka makana e hele la mamua o'u, a mahope iho e ike aku au i kona maka; a e maliu mai paha ia ia'u.
You shall say, 'Not only that, but look, your servant Jacob is behind us.'" For, he said, "I will appease him with the present that goes before me, and afterward I will meet him. Perhaps he will accept me."
21 Pela i hele aku ai ka makana ma kela kapa imua ona: a moe pu iho la oia ia po me ka huakai.
So the gift passed over before him, and he himself stayed that night in the camp.
22 Ala ae la oia ia po, lalau aku la ia i kana mau wahine elua, me kana mau kauwawahine elua, a me kana mau keiki kane he umikumamakahi, a hele aku la ma kahi papau o Iaboka ma kela kapa.
He got up that night and took his two wives, and his two female servants, and his eleven sons and crossed over the ford of the Jabbok.
23 Lalau aku la ia ia lakou, hoouna aku la ia lakou ma kela kapa o ke kahawai, a hoouka aku la hoi i kana mau mea a pau.
He took them and sent them across the stream, and sent over all his possessions.
24 O Iakoba wale no i koe: a hakoko mai la kekahi kanaka me ia, a wehe ae la ke alaula o ke ao.
Then Jacob was left alone. And a man wrestled with him until the rising of the dawn.
25 A ike iho la kela, aole ia i lanakila maluna ona, papai mai la ia i ka hena o kona uha, a ua kapeke ae la ka huamoa o ko Iakoba uha, i kona hakoko ana me ia.
When he saw that he did not defeat him, he struck the socket of his hip, and Jacob's hip was dislocated as he wrestled with him.
26 I mai la kela, E kuu ae oe ia'u, no ka mea, ke wehe mai la ke alaula. I aku la oia, Aole au e kuu aku ia oe, a hoomaikai mai oe ia'u.
Then he said, "Let me go, for the dawn is breaking." But Jacob said, "I won't let you go unless you bless me."
27 Ninau mai la kela ia ia, Owai kou inoa? I aku la oia, O Iakoba.
And he said to him, "What is your name?" He said, "Jacob."
28 I mai la kela, Aole e hea hou ia kou inoa, o Iakoba; aka, o Iseraela: no ka mea, he ikaika kou imua o ke Akua; a e lanakila hoi oe maluna o na kanaka.
Then he said, "Your name will no longer be called Jacob, but Israel, because you have struggled with God and with men and have prevailed."
29 Ninau aku la o Iakoba, i aku la, Ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e hai mai oe ia'u i kou inoa. I mai la kela, Heaha kau i ninau mai ai i ko'u inoa? A hoomaikai mai la kela ia ia ilaila.
Then Jacob asked him, "Please tell me your name." But he said, "Why is it that you ask what my name is?" And he blessed him there.
30 Kapa aku la o Iakoba i ka inoa o ia wahi o i Peniela: No ka mea, ua ike iho nei au i ke Akua, he maka no he maka, a ua malamaia kuu ola.
So Jacob called the name of the place Peniel: "For I have seen God face to face, and my life has been preserved."
31 Puka mai la ka la maluna ona i kona hele ana ae maluna o Penuela, kapeke ae la oia maluna o kona uha.
The sun rose on him as he passed by Peniel, and he limped because of his hip.
32 No ia mea, aole e ai na mamo a Iseraela i ke olona i eeke, ka mea ma ka uha, a hiki i keia la: no ka mea, papai mai la kela i ka hena o ko Iakoba uha ma ke olona i eeke.
Therefore, to this day the children of Israel do not eat the tendon of the hip socket, because he struck Jacob's hip socket near that tendon.
