Ebandeli 32
1 Wana Jakobi azalaki kokoba mobembo na ye, ba-anjelu ya Nzambe bayaki kokutana na ye.
And Jacob he went to way his and they met him [the] angels of God.
2 Tango Jakobi amonaki bango, alobaki: « Oyo ezali molako ya Nzambe! » Mpe abengaki esika yango: Maanayimi.
And he said Jacob just when he saw them [is] [the] camp of God this and he called [the] name of the place that Mahanaim.
3 Jakobi atindaki bantoma liboso na ye epai ya Ezawu, ndeko na ye, na mokili ya Seiri, kati na zamba ya Edomi.
And he sent Jacob messengers before him to Esau brother his [the] land of towards Seir [the] region of Edom.
4 Apesaki bango malako oyo: « Tala makambo oyo bokoloba epai ya nkolo na ngai Ezawu: ‹ Mosali na yo Jakobi alobi: ‘Navandaki epai ya Labani mpe natikalaki kuna kino sik’oyo.
And he commanded them saying thus you will say! to lord my to Esau thus he says servant your Jacob with Laban I have sojourned and I have delayed until now.
5 Nazali na bangombe, ba-ane, bameme, bantaba, basali ya mibali mpe ya basi; natindi sango oyo epai ya nkolo na ngai mpo ete nazwa ngolu na miso na ye.’ › »
And it be[longs] to me ox[en] and donkey[s] flock[s] and [male] servant[s] and female servant[s] and I have sent! to tell to lord my to find favor in view your.
6 Tango bantoma bazongaki epai ya Jakobi, balobaki: « Tokendeki epai ya Ezawu, ndeko na yo, mpe sik’oyo azali koya elongo na bato nkama minei mpo na kokutana na yo. »
And they returned the messengers to Jacob saying we went to brother your to Esau and also [he is] coming to meet you and four hundred man [are] with him.
7 Na kobanga makasi mpe na komitungisa, Jakobi akabolaki bato oyo bazalaki elongo na ye na masanga mibale; ndenge moko mpe mpo na bameme, bantaba mpe bashamo.
And he was afraid Jacob exceedingly and it was distress to him and he divided the people which [was] with him and the flock and the herd and the camels into two camps.
8 Azalaki komilobela: « Soki Ezawu abundisi lisanga moko, lisanga oyo etikali ekoki kokima. »
And he said if he will come Esau to the camp one and he will attack it and it will become the camp which remains an escaped remnant.
9 Sima, Jakobi abondelaki: « Oh Nzambe ya Abrayami, tata na ngai! Nzambe ya Izaki, tata na ngai! Oh Yawe, Yo oyo olobaki na ngai: ‹ Zonga na mokili na yo, na libota na yo, mpe Ngai nakosalela yo bolamu. ›
And he said Jacob O God of father my Abraham and [the] God of father my Isaac O Yahweh who said to me return to land your and to kindred your so let me do good with you.
10 Nazali nani mpo ete otalisa ngai mosali na Yo bolamu mpe bosembo nyonso oyo! Nazalaki kaka na lingenda tango nakatisaki Yordani, kasi sik’oyo nazali na masanga mibale.
I am [too] insignificant for all the covenant loyalti and for all the faithfulness which you have done with servant your for with staff my I passed over the Jordan this and now I have become two camps.
11 Nabondeli Yo, kangola ngai na maboko ya ndeko na ngai, Ezawu, pamba te nazali kobanga ete aya kobundisa ngai elongo na bamama mpe bana na bango.
Deliver me please from [the] hand of brother my from [the] hand of Esau for [am] fearing I him lest he should come and he will attack me mother with children.
12 Nzokande, Yo olobaki na ngai: ‹ Ya solo nakosalela yo bolamu mpe nakokomisa bakitani na yo ebele lokola zelo ya ebale monene, oyo moto moko te akoki kotanga. › »
And you you have said certainly I will do good with you and I will make offspring your like [the] sand of the sea which not it will be counted from multitude.
13 Jakobi alekisaki butu na esika wana. Kati na biloko oyo azalaki na yango, aponaki kado mpo na Ezawu, ndeko na ye:
And he stayed [the] night there in the night that and he took some of which came in hand his a gift for Esau brother his.
14 bantaba ya basi nkama mibale mpe bantaba ya mibali tuku mibale, bameme ya basi nkama mibale mpe bameme ya mibali tuku mibale,
Female goats two hundred and male goats twenty ewes two hundred and rams twenty.
15 shamo ya basi tuku misato elongo na bana na yango, bangombe ya basi tuku minei mpe bangombe ya mibali zomi, ba-ane ya basi tuku mibale mpe ya mibali zomi.
Camels suckling and young their thirty cows forty and bulls ten female donkeys twenty and male donkeys ten.
16 Akabolaki yango na bitonga mpe apesaki yango epai ya basali na ye. Alobaki na bango: « Boleka liboso na ngai mpe botia etonga moko mosika na mosusu. »
And he gave [them] in [the] hand of servants his herd herd to only it and he said to servants his pass over before me and a space you will put between a herd and between a herd.
17 Jakobi apesaki mitindo oyo epai ya mosali na ye ya liboso: « Tango Ezawu, ndeko na ngai, akokutana na yo mpe akotuna yo: ‹ Yo ozali mosali ya nani, ozali kokende wapi mpe nani nkolo ya banyama nyonso oyo ezali liboso na yo? ›
And he commanded the first saying that he will meet you Esau brother my and he will ask you saying [belong] to whom? you and where? are you going and [belong] to whom? these [animals] before you.
18 Okozongisa: ‹ Ezali ya Jakobi, mosali na yo, ezali kado oyo atindeli nkolo na ngai Ezawu. Mpe tala ye moko azali koya sima na biso. › »
And you will say to servant your to Jacob [is] a gift it [which has] been sent to lord my to Esau and there! also he [is] behind us.
19 Apesaki lisusu mitindo wana epai ya mosali ya mibale, ya misato mpe epai ya basali nyonso oyo bazalaki kolanda bibwele: « Bokoloba kaka maloba moko tango bokokutana na Ezawu.
And he commanded both the second as well as the third as well as all who were going behind the herds saying according to the manner this you will speak! to Esau when find you him.
20 Bokoyebisa ye lisusu: ‹ Tala ye moko Jakobi, mosali na yo, azali koya na sima na biso! › » Pamba te azalaki komilobela: « Nakokitisa kanda na ye na kado oyo natindi liboso na ngai; sima tango nakokutana na ye, mbala mosusu akoyamba ngai malamu. »
And you will say also there! servant your Jacob [is] behind us for he said I will cover face his by the gift that is going before me and after thus I will see face his perhaps he will lift up face my.
21 Boye kado ya Jakobi ekendeki liboso, kasi ye moko alekisaki butu kati na Molako.
And it passed on the gift on face his and he [was] staying [the] night in the night that in the camp.
22 Na butu wana, Jakobi alamukaki, azwaki basi na ye mibale, basali na ye mibale ya basi, bana na ye zomi na moko mpe akatisaki mayi ya Yaboki.
And he rose - in the night that and he took [the] two wives his and [the] two maidservants his and one [plus] ten sons his and he passed over [the] ford of Jabbok.
23 Sima na kokatisa bango mayi, akatisaki mpe biloko na ye nyonso.
And he took them and he sent over them the wadi and he sent over [that] which [belonged] to him.
24 Jakobi atikalaki kaka ye moko. Bongo moto moko abundaki na ye kino tango tongo elingaki kotana.
And he remained Jacob to only him and he wrestled a man with him until came up the dawn.
25 Wana moto yango amonaki ete akoki kolonga Jakobi te, abetaki Jakobi na loketo mpe mokuwa ya loketo na ye ebukanaki tango bazalaki kobunda.
And he saw that not he prevailed to him and he touched [the] socket of thigh his and it was dislocated [the] socket of [the] thigh of Jacob when wrestled he with him.
26 Sima, moto yango alobaki: — Tika ngai nakende, pamba te tongo elingi kotana. Kasi Jakobi azongisaki: — Nakotika yo te kokende soki opamboli ngai te.
And he said let go me for it has come up the dawn and he said not I will let go you that except you have blessed me.
27 Moto yango atunaki Jakobi: — Kombo na yo nani? Jakobi azongisaki: — Kombo na ngai ezali Jakobi.
And he said to him what? [is] name your and he said Jacob.
28 Moto yango alobaki lisusu: — Kobanda lelo, kombo na yo ekozala lisusu Jakobi te, kasi Isalaele, pamba te obundi na Nzambe mpe na bato, bongo olongi.
And he said not Jacob it will be called again name your that except Israel for you have struggled with God and with people and you have prevailed.
29 Jakobi alobaki: — Nabondeli yo, yebisa ngai kombo na yo. Azongiselaki ye: — Mpo na nini ozali kotuna kombo na ngai? Boye apambolaki ye na esika wana.
And he asked Jacob and he said tell! please name your and he said why? this do you ask to name my and he blessed him there.
30 Jakobi abengaki esika yango « Penieli, » pamba te alobaki: « Namoni Nzambe na miso na ngai, mpe bomoi na ngai ebiki. »
And he called Jacob [the] name of the place Peniel for I have seen God face to face and it has been delivered life my.
31 Tango moyi ebimaki, Jakobi alekaki Penueli. Azalaki kotambola tengu-tengu mpo na loketo na ye.
And it rose to him the sun just when he passed over Penuel and he [was] limping on thigh his.
32 Yango wana kino lelo, bana ya Isalaele baliaka mosuni ya mopende te, pamba te Nzambe abetaki Jakobi na mosuni oyo ekangami na mokuwa ya loketo.
There-fore not they eat [the] people of Israel [the] sinew of the tendon which [is] on [the] socket of the thigh until the day this for he touched [the] socket of [the] thigh of Jacob [the] sinew of the tendon.
