Uumama 33
1 Yaaqoobis ol jedhee ilaalee kunoo Esaawu namoota dhibba afur wajjin utuu dhufaa jiruu arge; innis Liyaatti, Raahelii fi xomboreewwan lamaanitti ijoollee gargari hire.
And Jacob lifts up his eyes, and looks, and behold, Esau is coming, and with him four hundred men; and he divides the children to Leah, and to Rachel, and to the two maidservants;
2 Xomboreewwanii fi ijoollee isaanii dura aanse; Liyaa fi ijoollee ishee itti aansee, Raahelii fi Yoosefin immoo dugda duuba buuse.
and he sets the maidservants and their children first, and Leah and her children behind, and Rachel and Joseph last.
3 Ofii isaatii immoo isaan dura darbee hamma obboleessa isaa bira gaʼutti yeroo torba lafatti gad jedhee harka fuudhe.
And he himself passed over before them, and bows himself to the earth seven times, until his drawing near to his brother,
4 Esaawu garuu Yaaqoobin simachuuf itti fiigee isa hammate; morma isaattis marmee isa dhungate. Isaan lachanuu walitti booʼan.
and Esau runs to meet him, and embraces him, and falls on his neck, and kisses him, and they weep;
5 Esaawus ol jedhee ilaalee dubartootaa fi ijoollee argee, “Warri si wajjin jiran kunneen eenyu?” jedhee gaafate. Yaaqoobis deebise, “Isaan ijoollee Waaqni arjummaadhaan ana garbicha keetiif kennee dha” jedhe.
and he lifts up his eyes, and sees the women and the children, and says, “What [are] these to you?” And he says, “The children with whom God has favored your servant.”
6 Xomboreewwanii fi ijoolleen isaanii dhiʼaatanii gad jedhanii harka fuudhan.
And the maidservants draw near, they and their children, and bow themselves;
7 Itti aansaniis Liyaa fi ijoolleen ishee dhufanii gad jedhanii harka fuudhan. Dhuma irratti immoo Yoosefii fi Raahel dhufanii gad jedhani harka fuudhan.
and Leah also draws near, and her children, and they bow themselves; and afterward Joseph has drawn near with Rachel, and they bow themselves.
8 Esaawu, “Bushaayee fi loon ani argu kun hundi maali?” jedhee gaafate. Yaaqoobis, “Ani fuula kee fuula gooftaa koo duratti fudhatama argachuuf jedhee ti” jedhe.
And he says, “What to you [is] all this camp which I have met?” And he says, “To find grace in the eyes of my lord.”
9 Esaawu immoo, “Yaa obboleessa koo ani waan na gaʼu qaba. Ati waan qabdu ofuma keetii hambifadhu” jedheen.
And Esau says, “I have abundance, my brother, that which you have, let it be for yourself.”
10 Yaaqoobis akkana jedhe; “Maaloo akkas miti! Yoo ani fuula kee duratti fudhatama argadhee jiraadhe, kennaa kana na harkaa fudhadhu. Egaa amma ati fuula tolaadhaan na simatteerta; fuula kee arguun anaaf akkuma fuula Waaqaa arguutii.
And Jacob says, “No, please, now if I have found grace in your eyes, then you have received my present from my hand, because that I have seen your face, as the seeing of the face of God, and you are pleased with me;
11 Sababii Waaqni natti arjoomee anis waan na barbaachisu hunda qabuuf maaloo kennaa ani siif fide kana fudhadhu.” Esaawus waan Yaaqoob cimsee isa kadhateef kennaa sana ni fudhate.
please receive my blessing which is brought to you, because God has favored me, and because I have all [things]”; and he presses on him, and he receives [it],
12 Esaawus, “Kottu karaa keenya itti fufnee haa deemnu; ani si dura nan buʼaa” jedhe.
and says, “Let us journey and go on, and I go on before you.”
13 Yaaqoob garuu akkana isaan jedhe; “Akka ijoolleen dadhaboo taʼanii fi akka anis hoolotaa fi saawwan hoosisaniif kunuunsa gochuu qabu ati gooftaan koo ni beekta. Horiin kunneen yoo guyyuma tokkoon jarjarsuudhaan oofaman hundi isaanii ni dhumu.
And he says to him, “My lord knows that the children [are] tender, and the suckling flock and the herd [are] with me; when they have beaten them one day, then all the flock has died.
14 Gooftaan koo garbicha isaa dura darbee haa deemu; ani immoo hamman Seeʼiiritti gooftaa koo qaqqabutti akkuma humna bushaayee fuula koo dura jirutii fi akkuma humna ijoolleetti suuta jedhee nan deema.”
Please let my lord pass over before his servant, and I lead on gently, according to the foot of the work which [is] before me, and to the foot of the children, until I come to my lord, to Seir.”
15 Esaawus, “Yoos namoota koo keessaa muraasa si biratti nan dhiisa” jedhe. Yaaqoob immoo, “Kun maaliif barbaachisaa? Fuula gooftaa koo duratti fudhatama argachuun qofti na gaʼa” jedhe.
And Esau says, “Please let me place with you some of the people who [are] with me”; and he said, “Why [is] this? I find grace in the eyes of my lord.”
16 Esaawus guyyuma sana karaa isaa irra Seeʼiiritti deebiʼe.
And Esau turns back on that day on his way to Seir;
17 Yaaqoob garuu Sukooti dhaqee achitti ofii isaatiif mana ijaarrate; horii isaatiif immoo daasii ijaare. Kanaafuu iddoon sun Suukooti jedhame.
and Jacob has journeyed to Succoth, and builds a house for himself, and has made shelters for his livestock, therefore he has called the name of the place Succoth.
18 Yaaqoob erga kaaba dhiʼa Phaadaan Arraamiitii deebiʼee booddee nagaan magaalaa Sheekem ishee biyya Kanaʼaan keessaa sana gaʼee fuula magaalattii dura qubate.
And Jacob comes safe [to the] city of Shechem, which [is] in the land of Canaan, in his coming from Padan-Aram, and encamps before the city,
19 Innis lafa dunkaana isaa irra dhaabate sana ilmaan Hamoor irraa meetii dhibbaan bitate; Hamoor immoo abbaa Sheekem.
and he buys the portion of the field where he has stretched out his tent, from the hand of the sons of Hamor, father of Shechem, for one hundred kesitah;
20 Yaaqoobis achitti iddoo aarsaa ijaaree El Elohee Israaʼel jedhee moggaase.
and he sets up there an altar, and proclaims at it God—the God of Israel.
