< उत्पत्ति 33 >
1 याकूबले माथि हेर्दा एसाव आउँदै थिए, र तिनीसित चार सय मानिस थिए । तिनले आफ्ना छोराछोरीहरूलाई लेआ, राहेल र दुई जना कमारीको बिचमा विभाजन गरे ।
Jacob lifted up his eyes, and looked, and, behold, Esau was coming, and with him four hundred men. He divided the children between Leah, Rachel, and the two servants.
2 तब तिनले कमारीहरू र तिनीहरूका छोराछोरीहरूलाई अग्रपङ्क्तिमा राखे; त्यसपछि लेआ र उनका छोराछोरीहरू अनि अन्त्यमा राहेल र योसेफलाई राखे ।
He put the servants and their children in front, Leah and her children after, and Rachel and Joseph at the rear.
3 तिनी आफैचाहिँ तिनीहरूभन्दा अगिअगि गए । तिनी आफ्ना दाजुको नजिक नआउञ्जेलसम्म तिनले सात पटक भुइँमा शिर निहुर्याउँदै गए ।
He himself passed over in front of them, and bowed himself to the ground seven times, until he came near to his brother.
4 एसाव याकूबलाई भेट्न दौडिए; अङ्गालो हाले; अङ्कमाल गरे र चुम्बन गरे । त्यसपछि तिनीहरू रोए ।
Esau ran to meet him, embraced him, fell on his neck, kissed him, and they wept.
5 एसावले हेर्दा तिनले स्त्रीहरू र केटाकेटीहरूलाई देखे । तिनले भने, “तिमीसँगै आएका यी मानिसहरू को हुन्?” याकूबले भने, “तपाईंका दासलाई परमेश्वरले अनुग्रहसाथ दिनुभएका छोराछोरीहरू हुन् ।”
He lifted up his eyes, and saw the women and the children; and said, “Who are these with you?” He said, “The children whom God has graciously given your servant.”
6 त्यसपछि आ-आफ्ना छोराछोरीहरू लिएर कमारीहरू आएर एसावलाई ढोग गरे ।
Then the servants came near with their children, and they bowed themselves.
7 अनि लेआ र उनका छोराछोरीहरू आएर ढोग गरे । अन्त्यमा योसेफ र राहेल आएर ढोग गरे ।
Leah also and her children came near, and bowed themselves. After them, Joseph came near with Rachel, and they bowed themselves.
8 एसावले भने, “मैले भेटेका यी सबै दलको अर्थ के हो?” याकूबले जवाफ दिए, “मेरा मालिकको दृष्टिमा निगाह प्राप्त गर्नलाई हो ।”
Esau said, “What do you mean by all this company which I met?” Jacob said, “To find favour in the sight of my lord.”
9 एसावले भने, “मेरा भाइ, मसित प्रशस्त छ । तिम्रो जे हो, ती आफैसित राख ।”
Esau said, “I have enough, my brother; let that which you have be yours.”
10 याकूबले भने, “त्यसो होइन । मैले तपाईंको दृष्टिमा निगाह पाएको छु भने मेरो हातबाट उपहार ग्रहण गर्नुहोस् । किनभने मैले तपाईंको मुहार देखेको छु, र यो परमेश्वरको मुहार देखेजस्तै भएको छ र तपाईंले मलाई ग्रहण गर्नुभएको छ ।
Jacob said, “Please, no, if I have now found favour in your sight, then receive my present at my hand, because I have seen your face, as one sees the face of God, and you were pleased with me.
11 कृपया, तपाईंको लागि ल्याइएको यो उपहारलाई ग्रहण गर्नुहोस् किनभने परमेश्वरले मसित अनुग्रहसाथ व्यवहार गर्नुभएको छ, र मसित प्रशस्तै छ ।” यसरी याकूबले बिन्ती गरेपछि एसावले त्यसलाई स्वीकार गरे ।
Please take the gift that I brought to you, because God has dealt graciously with me, and because I have enough.” He urged him, and he took it.
12 तब एसावले भने, “हामी आफ्नो बाटो लागौँ । म तिम्रो अगिअगि जानेछु ।”
Esau said, “Let’s take our journey, and let’s go, and I will go before you.”
13 याकूबले तिनलाई भने, “मेरा मालिकलाई थाहै छ, कि यी केटाकेटीहरू सानै छन् र यी गाईबस्तुहरूले दुध चुसाउँदै छन् । तिनीहरूलाई एकै दिन मात्र बेसरी धपाइयो भने ती सबै मर्नेछन् ।
Jacob said to him, “My lord knows that the children are tender, and that the flocks and herds with me have their young, and if they overdrive them one day, all the flocks will die.
14 यसैले मेरा मालिक आफ्ना दासभन्दा अगिअगि जानुहोस् भनी म बिन्ती गर्दछु । सेइरमा मेरा मालिककहाँ नआइपुगुञ्जेलसम्म म गाईबस्तुको चाल र केटाकेटीहरूको चालमा निकै बिस्तारै हिँड्नेछु ।
Please let my lord pass over before his servant, and I will lead on gently, according to the pace of the livestock that are before me and according to the pace of the children, until I come to my lord to Seir.”
15 एसावले भने, “म तिमीसित भएका केही मानिसहरूसित मेरा केही मानिसहरू छाडिदिन्छु ।” तर याकूबले भने, “किन त्यसो गर्ने?” मेरा मालिकको दृष्टिमा मैले निगाह पाए त भइहाल्यो नि ।”
Esau said, “Let me now leave with you some of the people who are with me.” He said, “Why? Let me find favour in the sight of my lord.”
16 त्यसैले त्यही दिन एसाव सेइरतर्फ फर्कन आफ्नो बाटो लागे ।
So Esau returned that day on his way to Seir.
17 याकूब सुक्कोततर्फ लागे । त्यहाँ तिनले डेरा हाले र आफ्ना गाईबस्तुहरूका निम्ति छाप्रा हाले । त्यसकारण त्यस ठाउँको नाउँ सुक्कोत राखियो ।
Jacob travelled to Succoth, built himself a house, and made shelters for his livestock. Therefore the name of the place is called Succoth.
18 याकूब पद्दन-आरामबाट आउँदा तिनी शकेमको सहरमा सुरक्षितसाथ आइपुगे जुन ठाउँ कनान देशमा पर्छ । तिनले सहरनजिकै पाल टाँगे ।
Jacob came in peace to the city of Shechem, which is in the land of Canaan, when he came from Paddan Aram; and encamped before the city.
19 त्यसपछि तिनले एक सय चाँदीका सिक्कामा शकेमका पिता हमोरका छोराहरूबाट एउटा जग्गा किने र त्यहीँ नै आफ्नो पाल टाँगे ।
He bought the parcel of ground where he had spread his tent, at the hand of the children of Hamor, Shechem’s father, for one hundred pieces of money.
20 त्यहाँ तिनले एउटा वेदी बनाए र त्यसको नाउँ एल-एलोह-एस्राएल राखे ।
He erected an altar there, and called it El Elohe Israel.
