Jenesis 33
1 Jekọb lepụrụ anya nʼihu, hụ Ịsọ ka ọ na-abịa, ya na narị ndị ikom anọ ndị so ya. Nʼihi ya, o kesara ụmụntakịrị ndị ahụ, nʼetiti Lịa, na Rechel na ndị odibo nwanyị ya abụọ.
And Jacob lifted up his eyes, and looked, and, behold, Esau came, and with him four hundred men. And he divided the children to Leah, and to Rachel, and to the two handmaids.
2 O mere ka ndị odibo nwanyị ya abụọ ahụ na ụmụ ha buru ụzọ, Lịa na ụmụ ya esoro nʼazụ, ebe Rechel na Josef nọ nʼazụ azụ.
And he put the handmaids and their children foremost, and Leah and her children after, and Rachel and Joseph last.
3 Ma ya onwe ya buru ụzọ na-aga nʼihu ha niile, na-akpọ isiala nye Ịsọ ugboro asaa, tutu ruo mgbe ọ bịarutere nwanne ya nwoke nso.
And he passed over before them, and bowed himself to the ground seven times, until he came near to his brother.
4 Ma Ịsọ gbaara ọsọ bịakwute ya, makụọ ya, jikụọ ya aka nʼolu, sutu ya ọnụ. Ha abụọ kwara akwa.
And Esau ran to meet him, and embraced him, and fell on his neck, and kissed him: and they wept.
5 Mgbe Ịsọ lelitere anya hụ ndị inyom ndị a na ụmụntakịrị ndị ahụ. Ọ sịrị, “Ndị ole bụ ndị a gị na ha so?” Jekọb sịrị, “Ha bụ ụmụ Chineke sitere nʼamara ya nye ohu gị.”
And he lifted up his eyes, and saw the women and the children; and said, Who are those with you? And he said, The children which God has graciously given your servant.
6 Mgbe ahụ, ndị odibo nwanyị abụọ na ụmụ ha rutere nso, kpọọ isiala.
Then the handmaidens came near, they and their children, and they bowed themselves.
7 Lịa na ụmụ ya bịarutekwara kpọọ isiala, nʼikpeazụ Rechel na Josef bịara kpọọkwa isiala.
And Leah also with her children came near, and bowed themselves: and after came Joseph near and Rachel, and they bowed themselves.
8 Ịsọ sịrị, “Igwe ewu na atụrụ ndị a niile m zutere nʼụzọ, gịnị ka ọ pụtara?” Jekọb zara, “Ha bụ maka ịnata ihuọma nʼaka gị, onyenwe m.”
And he said, What mean you by all this drove which I met? And he said, These are to find grace in the sight of my lord.
9 Ma Ịsọ sịrị, “Nwanne m nwoke, debere onwe gị ihe i nwere, nʼihi na enwere m akụ hie nne.”
And Esau said, I have enough, my brother; keep that you have to yourself.
10 Jekọb sịrị, “E, biko, ọ bụrụ na m achọtala ihuọma nʼanya gị, nara m onyinye ndị a. Nʼihi na ịhụ gị anya dịka ilekwasị Chineke anya nʼihu, nke ka nke, otu a i ji ihu ọcha nabata m.
And Jacob said, No, I pray you, if now I have found grace in your sight, then receive my present at my hand: for therefore I have seen your face, as though I had seen the face of God, and you were pleased with me.
11 Biko nara onyinye ndị ahụ e wetaara gị, nʼihi na Chineke emelara m amara. Enwekwara m ihe ga-ezuru m.” Jekọb kwagidere ya, ọ naara onyinye ndị ahụ.
Take, I pray you, my blessing that is brought to you; because God has dealt graciously with me, and because I have enough. And he urged him, and he took it.
12 Mgbe ahụ, Ịsọ sịrị, “Bilienụ ka anyị malite ije ịlaghachi. Aga m esonyere unu.”
And he said, Let us take our journey, and let us go, and I will go before you.
13 Ma Jekọb sịrị ya, “Onyenwe m, ị maara na ụmụntakịrị ndị a adịghị ike, aga m ejikwa nwayọọ chịa ụmụ atụrụ ndị a na ehi ndị na-enye ụmụ ha ara. Ọ bụrụ na a chịa ha nʼike nʼime otu ụbọchị, ụmụ anụmanụ ndị a niile ga-anwụ.
And he said to him, My lord knows that the children are tender, and the flocks and herds with young are with me: and if men should overdrive them one day, all the flock will die.
14 Ya mere, ka onyenwe m buru ohu ya ụzọ na-aga, ma ka m jiri nwayọọ nwayọọ na-abịa, dịka ike igwe anụ ndị a na ụmụaka ndị a si dị. Tutu ruo mgbe m ga-ezute onyenwe m na Sia.”
Let my lord, I pray you, pass over before his servant: and I will lead on softly, according as the cattle that goes before me and the children be able to endure, until I come to my lord to Seir.
15 Ịsọ sịrị, “Ọ bụrụ otu a, ka m hapụrụ gị ụfọdụ ndị a mụ na ha so.” Ma Jekọb sịrị, “Nʼihi gịnị kwanụ? Ka m hụta naanị ihuọma nʼanya onyenwe m.”
And Esau said, Let me now leave with you some of the folk that are with me. And he said, What needs it? let me find grace in the sight of my lord.
16 Ịsọ laghachikwara azụ na Sia nʼotu ụbọchị ahụ.
So Esau returned that day on his way to Seir.
17 Ma Jekọb na ezinaụlọ ya jere Sukọt, ebe o wuuru onwe ya ụlọ obibi, wuokwara anụ ụlọ ya ụlọ obibi ha. Ọ bụ nke a mere e ji kpọọ ebe ahụ Sukọt.
And Jacob journeyed to Succoth, and built him an house, and made booths for his cattle: therefore the name of the place is called Succoth.
18 Mgbe Jekọb si Padan Aram lọghachi, o rutere obodo Shekem nke dị nʼala Kenan nʼudo. O mara ụlọ ikwu ya nʼihu obodo ahụ.
And Jacob came to Shalem, a city of Shechem, which is in the land of Canaan, when he came from Padanaram; and pitched his tent before the city.
19 Ọ zụrụ ala ebe o mara ụlọ ikwu ya nʼaka ụmụ Hamọ, nna Shekem, ọ kwụrụ narị mkpụrụ ọlaọcha maka ala ahụ.
And he bought a parcel of a field, where he had spread his tent, at the hand of the children of Hamor, Shechem’s father, for an hundred pieces of money.
20 Nʼebe ahụ, o wuru ebe ịchụ aja, kpọọ aha ya El Elohe Izrel.
And he erected there an altar, and called it EleloheIsrael.
