1 UJakhobe wathi evusa amehlo wabona u-Esawu, eqhamuka lamadoda akhe angamakhulu amane; wasesehlukanisa abantwana phakathi kukaLeya, uRasheli lezincekukazi zombili.
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.
2 Waqhuba phambili izincekukazi labantwabazo, kwalandela uLeya labantwabakhe, kweza uRasheli loJosefa ngemuva.
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.
3 Yena ngokwakhe wahamba phambili wakhothama phansi emhlabathini kasikhombisa esebanga kumnewabo.
Hianagi Jekopu'a agra vugoteno vugofa nehuno, 7ni'a zupa rena ome reno mopafi kepri hume vuno nefu tava'onte uhanati'ne.
4 Kodwa u-Esawu wagijima wahlangabeza uJakhobe wamanga; wamgona ngezingalo entanyeni wamanga. Bakhala.
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.
5 U-Esawu wasekhangela wabona abesifazane labantwana. Wabuza wathi, “Ngobani laba ohamba labo na?” UJakhobe waphendula wathi, “Ngabantwana uNkulunkulu abaphe ngesihle inceku yakho.”
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.
6 Kwathi izincekukazi labantwabazo, zasondela zakhothamela phansi.
Anante Jekopu eri'za a'trene, mofavrezinine vu'za Iso agiafi ome zamarenare'za mopafi kepri hu'naze.
7 Kwalandela uLeya kanye labantwabakhe beza bakhothamela phansi. Abokucina kwaba nguJosefa loRasheli, labo bakhothamela phansi.
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.
8 U-Esawu wabuza wathi, “Utshoni ngemihlambi yonke le engihlangane layo?” Wathi, “Ngeyokucela umusa kuwe, nkosi yami.”
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.
9 Kodwa u-Esawu wathi, “Lami sengilakho okunengi, mnawami. Zigcinele lawe lokho olakho.”
Hianagi kenona Iso'a amanage hu'ne. Nagnanimoka, nagra hago rama'a feno ante'noanki, kagrama erinkama e'nana zanka'a kagra erio.
10 UJakhobe wathi, “Hatshi bo, bakithi. Nxa ngisamukeleka kuwe yamukela isipho sami lesi. Ngoba ukubona ubuso bakho kufana lokubona ubuso bukaNkulunkulu, ikakhulu njengoba usungamukele ngesihle.
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.
11 Ngicela ukuthi wamukele isipho leso esilethwe kuwe, ngoba uNkulunkulu ube lomusa kimi, ngaba lakho konke engikudingayo.” Kwathi ngoba uJakhobe encenga, u-Esawu wasamukela.
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.
12 U-Esawu wasesithi, “Kasihambeni. Ngizahamba lani.”
Iso'a ana museza (gift) enerino amanage hu'ne, Nagra vugota'nena magoka vugahunanki otinketa vamneno.
13 Kodwa uJakhobe wathi kuye, “Inkosi yami iyazi ukuthi abantwana babuthakathaka lokuthi ngisamele nginakekele izimvukazi lamankomokazi konke okusanda kuzala. Zingahanjiswa ngamandla okwelanga elilodwa nje, izifuyo zizakufa.
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.
14 Ngakho inkosi yami kayizihambele phambili kwenceku yayo, mina ngilandele kancane okwamandla emihlambi eqhutshwayo labantwana, ngize ngifike enkosini yami eSeyiri.”
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.
15 U-Esawu wathi, “Nxa kunjalo ngizatshiya amanye amadoda ami lawe.” UJakhobe wabuza wathi, “Kambe ube ukwenzelani lokho? Inkosi yami kayingenzele umusa nje kube kuphela.”
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?
16 Ngakho ngalolosuku u-Esawu wasuka esebuyela eSeyiri.
Higeno Iso'a netreno, ana zupage Seiri (Idom) moparega ete vu'ne.
17 Kodwa uJakhobe waya eSukhothi lapho azakhela khona umuzi wakha lezibaya zezifuyo zakhe. Kungakho leyondawo ithiwa yiSukhothi.
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.
18 UJakhobe esebuyile ePhadani Aramu wafika kuhle edolobheni laseShekhemu eKhenani wamisa izihonqo eduzane kwedolobho.
Hagi Jekopu'a Padan-aramu mopa atreno ne-eno Sekemu ehanatino, Kenani mopare ra kuma'mofo fegi'a nonkuma (kemi) eme anteno mani'ne.
19 Ngenhlamvu zesiliva ezilikhulu wathenga isiqinti somhlabathi emadodaneni kaHamori, uyise kaShekhemu, lapho amisa khona ithente lakhe.
E'i ana mopa Hamori amohe'impinti, Sekemu nefa mopa 100'a silva zagoreti miza huno seli nona ki'ne.
20 Khonapho amisa i-alithari walibiza ngokuthi yi-Eli Elohe Israyeli.
Anante havere ita tro hunteteno agi'a El-Elohe Israeli vahe Anumzane, huno agi'a antemi'ne.
