< Genesis 32 >

1 Intuloy met ni Jacob ti panagdaliasatna, ket sinabat isuna dagiti anghel ti Dios.
As Jacob and his family continued traveling, some angels, whom God sent, met him.
2 Idi nakita ida ni Jacob, kinunana, “Daytoy ket kampo ti Dios”, isu nga inawaganna dayta a lugar iti Mahanaim.
When Jacob saw them, he said, “This is God’s army camp!” So he named that place Mahanaim, [which means ‘two camps’].
3 Nangibaon ni Jacob kadagiti mensahero nga umun-una ngem isuna a mapan iti kabsatna a ni Esau, iti daga ti Seir, iti rehion ti Edom.
Jacob told some of the men to go ahead of him to his older brother Esau, who was living in Seir, the land where the descendants of Edom lived.
4 Binilinna ida, a kunana, “Kastoy ti ibagayo iti apok a ni Esau: Kastoy ti kuna ti adipenmo a ni Jacob: 'Nakipagnanaedak kenni Laban, ket nagtalinaedak a nakipagnanaed aginggana ita.
He told them, “This is what I want you to say to Esau: 'I, Jacob, want to be your servant and I want you to be my master. I have been living with our uncle Laban, and I have stayed there until now.
5 Addaanak kadagiti baka, asno, ken arban, lallaki nga adipen, ken babbai nga adipen. Nangibaonak tapno maibaga daytoy iti apok, tapno makasarakak koma iti pabor iti imatangmo.”'
I now own many cattle, donkeys, sheep, goats, and male and female slaves. Now I am sending this message to you, sir, hoping that you will (be friendly toward me/treat me kindly) when I arrive.’ “
6 Nagsubli dagiti mensahero kenni Jacob ket kinunada, “Napankami iti kabsatmo a ni Esau. Umaynaka sabten, ket adda kaduana nga uppat a gasut a lallaki.
The messengers went and gave that message to Esau. When they returned to Jacob, they said, “We went to your older brother Esau. Now he is coming to you, and 400 men are coming with him.”
7 Ket nagbuteng ken nariribukan ni Jacob ti kasta unay. Isu a biningayna dagiti tattao a kaduana iti dua a kampo, ken kasta met dagiti arban ti karnero ken kalding, baka, ken dagiti kamelyo.
Jacob was very afraid and worried. So he divided the people who were with him into two groups. He also divided the sheep and goats, the cattle, and the camels, into two groups.
8 Kinunana, “No umay ni Esau iti maysa kadagiti kampo ket darupenna daytoy, aglibasto ti maysa a kampo.”
He was thinking, “If Esau and his men come and attack us, perhaps one of the groups will be left and will be able to escape.”
9 Kinuna ni Jacob, “Dios ti amak a ni Abraham, ken Dios ti amak a ni Isaac, Yahweh, a nagkuna kaniak, 'Agsublika iti pagiliam ken kadagiti kakabagiam, ket parang-ayenkanto,'
Then Jacob prayed, “O Yahweh God, whom my grandfather Abraham worshiped and my father Isaac worships, you said to me, ‘Go back to your own land and to your relatives, and I will (cause good things happen to/do good things for) you.’
10 Saanak a maikari iti amin nga aramidmo a nangipakita iti kinapudnom iti katulagan ken iti amin a kinamatalek nga inaramidmo para iti adipenmo. Ta sarukod laeng ti awitko idi bimmallasiwak iti daytoy a Jordan, ket ita nagbalinakon a dua a kampo.
I am not worthy for you to have been so kind and faithful to me in so many ways, your servant. I had only this walking stick with me when I crossed the Jordan [River on my way to Haran], but now I am so wealthy that there are two large groups of my family and possessions.
11 Pangnga-asim ta ispalennak manipud iti ima ti kabsatko, manipud iti ima ni Esau, ta mabutengak kenkuana, nga umay isuna ket darupennak ken dagiti inna a kadua dagiti ubbing.
So now I pray that you will rescue me from [MTY] my [older] brother Esau, because I am afraid that he and his men will come and attack and kill me and the children and their mothers.
12 Ngem kinunam, 'Pudno a parang-ayenkanto. Pagbalinekto dagiti kaputotam a kasla darat iti baybay, a saan a mabilang iti kinaaduda.”'
But do not forget that you have said, ‘I will certainly enable you to prosper, and I will cause your descendants to be as numerous as the grains of sand on the seashore, which are so many that no one can count them.’”
13 Nagtalinaed ni Jacob sadiay iti dayta a rabii. Nangala isuna iti sumagmamano kadagiti adda kenkuana a kas sagut a maipaay kenni Esau, a kabsatna:
Jacob slept there that night. The next morning he selected some animals to give to his brother Esau.
14 dua gasut a kabaian a kalding ken duapulo a kalakian a kalding, dua gasut a kabaian a karnero ken duapulo a kalakian a karnero,
He selected 200 female goats and 20 male goats, 200 female sheep and 20 male sheep,
15 tallopulo nga agpagpagatas a kamelio ken dagiti urbonda, uppat a pulo a kabaian a baka ken sangapulo a kalakian a baka, duapulo a kabaian nga asno ken sangapulo a kalakian nga asno.
30 female camels and their offspring, 40 cows and ten bulls, 20 female donkeys and 10 male donkeys.
16 Impaaywanna dagitoy kadagiti adipenna, maysa nga arban iti tunggal adipen. Kinunana kadagiti adipenna, “Umunakayo kaniak ket ikkanyo iti pagbaetan ti tunggal arban.”
He divided them into small herds, and put each herd into the care of one of his servants. He said to his servants, “Go ahead of me, one group at a time, and keep some space between each herd.”
17 Binilinna ti umuna nga adipen, a kunana, “Inton masabatnaka ni Esau a kabsatko ken agsaludsod kenka, a kunana, 'Siasino ti nakaibilangam? Sadino ti papanam? Ken siasino ti makinkukua kadagitoy nga ayup iti sangoanam?'
He said to the servant who was going with the first group, “When my brother Esau meets you, and he asks you, ‘To whom do you belong, and where are you going, and to whom do these animals in front of you belong?’
18 Ket ibagamto a, 'Dagitoy ket kukua ti adipenmo a ni Jacob. Dagitoy ket sagut a naipatulod para iti apok a ni Esau. Ket makitamto, sumarsaruno isuna kadakami,'”
tell him, ‘They belong to your servant Jacob. He has sent them to you as a gift, sir. And he is coming behind us.’”
19 Binilin ni Jacob ti maikadua a bunggoy, ti maikatlo, ken dagiti amin a tattao a mangsarsaruno kadagiti arban. Kinunana, “Ibagayo ti isu met laeng a banag kenni Esau inton makitayo isuna.
He also said the same thing to the servants who were taking care of the second and third groups, and to the other herdsmen. He said to them, “When you meet Esau, I want you to say to him the same thing that I told the first servant.
20 Ibagayo met a, “Sumarsaruno kadakami ti adipenmo a ni Jacob.'” Ta pinanunotna nga, “Ay-ayoek isuna babaen kadagiti sagut nga ummun-una kaniak. Inton makitak isuna, barbareng no awatennakto.”
And be sure to say ‘Jacob, who wants to serve you, is coming behind us.’” Jacob told them to say that because he was thinking, “Perhaps these gifts that I am sending ahead of me will cause him to (act peacefully toward/stop being angry with) me. Then later, when I see him, perhaps he will be kind to me.”
21 Isu nga immuna a napan dagiti sagut ngem isuna. Nagtalinaed isuna iti dayta a rabii iti kampo.
So the men taking the gifts [PRS] went ahead, but Jacob himself stayed in the camp that night.
22 Bimmangon ni Jacob iti dayta a rabii, ket inkuyogna dagiti dua nga assawana, dagiti dua a babai nga adipenna, ken dagiti sangapulo ket maysa a putotna a lallaki. Imbaonna ida iti ballasiw ti waig ti Jabbok.
Some time during that night, Jacob got up and took his two wives, his two female slaves, and his eleven sons and his daughter, and he sent them across the ford at the Jabbok River.
23 Iti kastoy a wagas, imbaonna ida iti ballasiw ti waig kasta met dagiti amin a sanikuana.
After he had done that, he sent other slaves, carrying all his possessions, across the river.
24 Nabati nga agmaymaysa ni Jacob, ket maysa a lalaki ti nakigabbo kenkuana inggana iti panagsingising ti init.
So Jacob was left there alone. But a man came and wrestled with him until dawn.
25 Idi nakita ti lalaki a saanna a maabak isuna, dinapigna ti patong ni Jacob. Naglagisi ti patong ni Jacob kabayatan a makigabgabbo isuna kenkuana.
When the man realized that he was not winning against Jacob, he struck Jacob’s hip and caused the thigh bone to pull away from the hip socket.
26 Kinuna ti lalaki, “Palubosannakon, ta sumingsingisingen ti init.” Kinuna ni Jacob, “Saanka a palubosan malaksid no bendisionannak.”
Then the man said, “Let me go, because it will soon be daylight.” [Then Jacob realized who he was really wrestling with]. So he replied, “No, if you will not bless me, I will not let you go!”
27 Kinuna ti lalaki kenkuana, “Ania iti naganmo? Simmungbat ni Jacob, “Jacob.”
The man said to him, “What is your name?” He replied, “Jacob.”
28 Kinuna ti lalaki, “Ti naganmo ket saanen a Jacob, no di ket Israel. Ta nakibinnalubalka iti Dios ken kadagiti tattao ket nangabakka.”
The man said, “Your name will no longer be Jacob. Your name will be Israel, [which means ‘he struggles with God’, ] because you have struggled with God and with people, and you have won.”
29 Sinaludsod ni Jacob kenkuana, “Pangngaasim ta ibagam kaniak ti naganmo.” Kinunana, “Apay a salsaludsudem ti naganko?” Ket binendisionanna isuna sadiay.
Jacob said, “Now, please tell me your name!” The man replied, “(Why do you ask me what my name is?/You should not have to ask me what my name is!)” [RHQ] But he blessed Jacob there.
30 Pinanaganan ni Jacob ti lugar a Peniel ta kinunana, “Nakitak ti Dios iti rupan-rupa, ket naisalakan ti biagko.”
So Jacob named the place Peniel, [which means ‘God’s face’, ] saying “I looked directly at God, but I did not die because of doing that.”
31 Lumgaken ti init idi pumanaw ni Jacob idiay Peniel. Agpilaypilay isuna gapu iti patongna.
The sun was rising as Jacob left Peniel, and he was limping because of what had happened to his hip.
32 Dayta ti makagapu no apay nga agingga iti daytoy nga aldaw ket saan a kankanen dagiti tattao ti Israel ti pennet iti patong nga adda iti nagsuopan iti patong, gapu ta dinangran ti lalaki dagidiay a pennet bayat iti panaglagisi ti patong ni Jacob.
The muscle on his hip joint had been injured. So to this present time, because of what happened to Jacob, the Israeli people do not eat the muscle/tendon that is attached to the socket of the hips of animals.
