1 Hagi Iso'a 400'a vahe'ane ne-egeno, Jekopu'a kesga huno negeno mofavre naga'a refko huzmantege'za, nezmarera Liane, Resoline, tare eri'za a'trene zamavuga otitere hu'naze.
[Then Jacob joined the rest of his family]. [Later that day] Jacob looked up and saw Esau coming, and there were 400 men with him. [Jacob was worried because of that], so he separated the children. He put Leah’s children with Leah, Rachel’s children with Rachel, and the two female slaves’ children with their mothers.
2 Ana huteno eri'za a'trema'ane mofavre'zanine huzmantege'za vugota hu'za vu'naze. Anantera Lia'ene mofavre naga'ane vazageno, Resoli'ene Josefekea henka vu'na'e.
He put the two female slaves and their children in front. He put Leah and her children next. He put Rachel and Joseph at the rear.
3 Hianagi Jekopu'a agra vugoteno vugofa nehuno, 7ni'a zupa rena ome reno mopafi kepri hume vuno nefu tava'onte uhanati'ne.
He himself went ahead of them all, and as he continued to approach his older brother, he prostrated himself with his face on the ground seven times.
4 E'ina higeno Iso'a negeno agareno eno Jekopuna azante eme azerino agazafeno, azana anankempi rugagino antako hunentege'ne, zavi otente atente hu'na'e.
But Esau ran to Jacob. He hugged him, put his arms around his neck, and kissed him on the cheek. And they both cried.
5 Ana huteke Iso'a ana a'nene mofavre ramine nezmageno anage hu'ne, Zamagra iza'za kagranena neaze? Huno antahigegeno, Jekopu'a amanage hu'ne, Anumzamo'a so'e hunanteno eri'za vahekamo'na nami'nea mofavreramine.
Then Esau looked up and saw the women and the children. He asked, “Who are these people who are with you?” Jacob replied, “These are the wives and children that God has graciously/kindly given to me.”
6 Anante Jekopu eri'za a'trene, mofavrezinine vu'za Iso agiafi ome zamarenare'za mopafi kepri hu'naze.
Then the female slaves and their children came near and bowed in front of Esau.
7 Anante Lia'ene mofavre naga'ane ne-eza anazanke hu'za Iso agiafi zamarena eme re'za mopafi kepri hazageno, Josefe'ene Resolike henka'a anazanke hune mopafi eme kepri hu'na'e.
Then Leah and her children came and bowed down. Finally Joseph and Rachel came near and bowed down.
8 Ana hutageno Iso'a amanage huno Jekopuna antahige'ne. Ese'ma afu'zaga avre'za e'naza vahe'ma zamage'noana nahigenka huzmantanke'za e'naze? Higeno Jekopu'a amanage hu'ne, ranimoka kazeri muse hunaku e'inara hu'noe.
Esau asked, “What is the meaning of all the animals that I saw?” Jacob replied, “I am giving them to you, sir, so that you will feel good toward me.”
9 Hianagi kenona Iso'a amanage hu'ne. Nagnanimoka, nagra hago rama'a feno ante'noanki, kagrama erinkama e'nana zanka'a kagra erio.
But Esau replied, “My [younger] brother, I have enough animals! Keep for yourself the animals that you have!”
10 Hianagi Jekopu'a amanage hu'ne, A'o, muse (plis) hugantoanki nagri'ma kagu'areti'ma hunka antahi nenamisunka amama negamua musezana (gift) nazampintira erio. Hagi musema hunka navrana zama koana, Anumzamofo avugosa keankna nehugenka nagrira krimpa naminka nenavrane.
But Jacob said, “No, please, if you feel good toward me, accept these gifts from me. You have greeted me very kindly. Seeing your smiling face assures me [that you have forgiven me]. It is like seeing the face of God!
11 Muse (plis) hugantoanki nagrama muse'zama (gift) negamuana eri'nanegu navenesie. Na'ankure Anumzamo'a avesi nenanteno naza huno hakare'aza nami'nege'na, knare hu'ne'na eme negamue. E'inage huno Jekopu'a hankavetino kehigeno Iso'a ana zantamina eri'ne.
Please accept these gifts that I have brought to you, because God has acted kindly toward me, and I still have plenty of animals!” Jacob kept on urging him to accept the animals, and finally he accepted them.
12 Iso'a ana museza (gift) enerino amanage hu'ne, Nagra vugota'nena magoka vugahunanki otinketa vamneno.
Then Esau said, “Let’s continue traveling together, and I will show the road to you.”
13 Hianagi Jekopu'a amanage huno Isona asami'ne, ranimoka kama antahio, mofavrenimo'za hanave oti'nazageno, afu zagamo'za ami anuntage nehaze. Hagi magoke zagefinke'ma afu kevuma harita zaza kama vanunke'za, ufrigahaze.
Jacob [had no intention to go with Esau], but he said, “You know, sir, that the children are weak, and that I must take care of the female sheep and cows that are (sucking their mother’s milk/nursing their young). If I force them to walk fast for a long distance in just one day, the animals will all die.
14 E'ina hu'negu (plis) muse hugantoanki ranimoka, eri'za nekamo'na natrenka vugota huge'na, afu kevu zagane, a'mofavremo'zanema kama vanaza avamente akoheta nevuta, Seiri kumate (Idom) ranimokare uhnatigahue.
You go ahead of me. I will lead the animals slowly, but I will walk as fast as the children and animals can walk. I will catch up with you in Seir, [in the land where the descendants of Edom live].”
15 Iso'a ana kenona amanage hu'ne. Muse (plis) hugantoanki mago'a eri'za vaheni'a zamatra'nena kavega hu'za vugahaze, higeno Jekopu'a amanage hu'ne. Ko' ranimoka nazeri so'e hunananki na'ante anara hugahane?
Esau said, “Then allow me to leave with you some of the men who came with me, [to protect you].” But Jacob replied, “(Why do that?/There is no need to do that!) [RHQ] The only thing that I want is for you to act friendly toward me.”
16 Higeno Iso'a netreno, ana zupage Seiri (Idom) moparega ete vu'ne.
So on that day Esau left to return to Seir.
17 Jekopu'a Sukoti kumatega vuno, e'i ana mopare noma'a negino, afu kevumokizmi none kine. E'ina hu'negu menina ana kumamofo agi'a Sukotie hu'za nehaze.
But [instead of going to Seir], Jacob and his family went to [a place called] Succoth. There he built a house for himself and his family, and built shelters for his livestock. That is the reason they named the place Succoth, [which means ‘shelters’].
18 Hagi Jekopu'a Padan-aramu mopa atreno ne-eno Sekemu ehanatino, Kenani mopare ra kuma'mofo fegi'a nonkuma (kemi) eme anteno mani'ne.
[Some time later, ] Jacob and his family left Paddan-Aram [in Mesopotamia], and they traveled safely to the Canaan region. There they set up their tents in a field near Shechem city.
19 E'i ana mopa Hamori amohe'impinti, Sekemu nefa mopa 100'a silva zagoreti miza huno seli nona ki'ne.
One of the leaders of the people in that area was named Hamor. Hamor had several sons. Jacob paid the sons of Hamor 100 pieces of silver for the piece of ground on which they set up their tents.
20 Anante havere ita tro hunteteno agi'a El-Elohe Israeli vahe Anumzane, huno agi'a antemi'ne.
He built a stone altar there, and named it El-Elohe Israel, [which means ‘God, the God of Israel].’
