UGenesisi 28
1 UIsaka wasebiza uJakobe, wambusisa, wamlaya wathi kuye: Ungathathi umfazi kumadodakazi eKhanani.
Isak yɔ Yakob, yrae, eye wògblɔ nɛ be, “Mègaɖe Kanaan nyɔnu siawo dometɔ aɖeke o,
2 Sukuma uye ePadani-Arama, endlini kaBethuweli uyise kanyoko, uzithathele khona umfazi kumadodakazi kaLabani umalumakho.
ke boŋ yi Padan Aram enumake, eye nàge ɖe tɔgbuiwò Betuel ƒe aƒe me, eye nàɖe nɔviwò siwo nye nyruiwò, Laban vinyɔnuwo la dometɔ ɖeka.
3 Njalo uNkulunkulu uSomandla akubusise, akwenze ube lenzalo akwandise, ukuze ube ngumbuthano wezizwe;
Mawu Ŋusẽkatãtɔ nayra wò, ana viwòwo nasɔ gbɔ, eye nàzu dukɔ gã aɖe!
4 abesekupha isibusiso sikaAbrahama, kuwe lenzalweni yakho kanye lawe, ukuze udle ilifa lelizwe lapho ohlala khona njengowezizwe, uNkulunkulu alinika uAbrahama.
Mawu nana yayra gã siwo ŋugbe wòdo na Abraham la nava wò kple wò dzidzimeviwo dzi. Anyigba si dzi míele fifia abe amedzrowo ene la nazu tɔwò, elabena Mawu tsɔe na Abraham.”
5 UIsaka wasethuma uJakobe waya ePadani-Arama kuLabani indodana kaBethuweli umSiriya, umfowabo kaRebeka unina kaJakobe loEsawu.
Ale Isak na Yakob yi Padan Aram be wòakpɔ nyruia Laban, ame si nye Betuel Arameatɔ la ƒe viŋutsu eye wòganye Yakob kple Esau dadaa Rebeka nɔviŋutsu la ɖa.
6 UEsawu wasebona ukuthi uIsaka umbusisile uJakobe, wamthuma ePadani-Arama ukuze azithathele khona umfazi, lapho embusisa wamlaya esithi: Ungathathi umfazi kumadodakazi eKhanani;
Esau kpɔ be ye fofo Isak yra Yakob, eye wòɖoe ɖe Padan Aram be wòaɖe srɔ̃ le afi ma, ke ede se na Yakob be, “Megaɖe Kanaan nyɔnu o.”
7 lokuthi uJakobe walalela oyise lonina, waya ePadani-Arama.
Yakob ɖo to fofoa kple dadaa, eye wòyi Padan Aram.
8 UEsawu wasebona ukuthi amadodakazi eKhanani ayemabi emehlweni kaIsaka uyise.
Esau de dzesii be Kanaan nyɔnuawo medze ye fofo Isak ŋu o.
9 Ngakho uEsawu waya kuIshmayeli, wazithathela uMahalathi indodakazi kaIshmayeli, indodana kaAbrahama, udadewabo kaNebayothi, abe ngumkakhe phezu kwabafazi ayelabo.
Ale Esau yi etɔgã, Ismael ƒe ƒome me, eye wòɖe srɔ̃ bubu eve tso afi ma kpe ɖe srɔ̃ siwo nɔ esi xoxo la ŋu. Srɔ̃ yeye siawo dometɔ ɖekae nye Mahalat, Nebayɔt nɔvi kple Ismael si nye Abraham ƒe viŋutsu la ƒe vinyɔnu.
10 UJakobe wasephuma eBherishebha waya eHarani.
Yakob dzo le Beerseba, eye wòɖo ta Haran.
11 Wafika endaweni, achitha khona ubusuku ngoba ilanga lalitshonile. Wasethatha ilitshe ematsheni aleyondawo, wenza umqamelo wakhe, walala kuleyondawo.
Esi zã do la, etsi teƒe aɖe dɔ, eye wòziɔ kpe aɖe abe suɖui ene be yeadɔ alɔ̃.
12 Waphupha, khangela-ke, ilele limisiwe emhlabeni, isihloko salo sifinyelela emazulwini, khangela-ke, ingilosi zikaNkulunkulu zisenyuka zisehla kulo.
Eku drɔ̃e kpɔ atsrɔe aɖe si didi tso anyigba yi ɖatɔ dziƒo, eye wòkpɔ mawudɔlawo nɔ eliam ganɔ ɖiɖim.
13 Khangela-ke, iNkosi yema phezu kwalo, yathi: NgiyiNkosi uNkulunkulu kaAbrahama uyihlo loNkulunkulu kaIsaka; ilizwe olele kulo, ngizakunika lona, lenzalo yakho;
Ekpɔ Yehowa wònɔ atsrɔe la tame, eye wògblɔ be, “Nyee nye Yehowa, Abraham ƒe Mawu kple fofowò Isak ƒe Mawu. Anyigba si dzi nèmlɔ la, matsɔe ana wò kple wò dzidzimeviwo,
14 njalo inzalo yakho izakuba ngangothuli lomhlaba, uzasabalalela entshonalanga lempumalanga lenyakatho leningizimu; njalo zizabusiswa kuwe zonke insendo zomhlaba, lasenzalweni yakho.
elabena wò dzidzimeviwo asɔ gbɔ abe ʋuʋudedi ene! Woakaka ɖe anyigba dzi tso ɣedzeƒe yi ɣetoɖoƒe, tso anyiehe yi dziehe, eye woayra dukɔwo katã le xexea me to wò kple wò dzidzimeviwo dzi.
15 Khangela-ke, ngilawe, ngizakulondoloza kuzo zonke indawo lapha oya khona, ngikubuyise kulelilizwe; ngoba kangiyikukutshiya ngize ngikwenze lokho engikhulume ngakho kuwe.
Gawu la, meli kpli wò, makpɔ tawò le afi sia afi si nàyi la, eye makplɔ wò nàgbɔ ava anyigba sia dzi dedie. Manɔ kpli wò va se ɖe esime matsɔ nu siwo katã ŋugbe medo na wò la ana wò.”
16 Kwathi uJakobe ephaphama ebuthongweni bakhe, wathi: Isibili iNkosi ikulindawo, mina-ke bengingakwazi.
Esime Yakob nyɔ tso alɔ̃ me la, egblɔ be, “Vavã, Yehowa le afi sia, gake nyemenya o.”
17 Wasesesaba wathi: Yesabeka kangakanani lindawo! Kayisilutho ngaphandle kokuthi yindlu kaNkulunkulu, laleli lisango lamazulu.
Egblɔ be, “Aleke gbegbe teƒe sia dzi ŋɔe! Teƒe sia menye teƒe bubu aɖeke wu Mawu ƒe aƒe o. Esiae nye dziƒogbo la.”
18 UJakobe wasevuka ekuseni kakhulu, wathatha ilitshe alenza laba ngumqamelo wakhe, walimisa laba yinsika, wathela amagcobo phezu kwesihloko salo.
Yakob fɔ ŋdi kanya, ɖi kpe si wòziɔ la abe ŋkuɖodzikpe ene, eye wòkɔ ami ɖe edzi.
19 Wasebiza ibizo laleyondawo iBhetheli; kodwa-ke kuqala ibizo lomuzi laliyiLuzi.
Ena ŋkɔ teƒea be Betel si gɔmee nye “Mawu ƒe Aƒe.” Tsã la, woyɔ du si te ɖe afi ma ŋu la be Luz.
20 UJakobe wasethembisa isithembiso esithi: Uba uNkulunkulu ezakuba lami, angilondoloze kulindlela engiyihambayo, angiphe isinkwa sokudla, lesembatho sokwembatha,
Yakob ɖe adzɔgbe na Mawu be, “Ne Mawu ave nunye, akpɔ tanye le nye mɔzɔzɔ sia me, ana nuɖuɖu kple nutatam,
21 njalo ngibuyele ngokuthula endlini kababa, khona iNkosi izakuba nguNkulunkulu wami,
eye wòakplɔm magbɔ ava fofonye gbɔ dedie la, ekema matia Yehowa abe nye Mawu ene!
22 lelitshe leli engilimise ukuthi libe yinsika lizakuba yindlu kaNkulunkulu; kukho konke ozangipha khona, isibili ngizakunika okwetshumi.
Ŋkuɖodzikpe sia azu mawusubɔƒe, eye matsɔ nu sia nu si nànam la ƒe ewolia ana wò!”
