< Genesisi 32 >
1 Jakobho akaendawo nenzira yake, uye vatumwa vaMwari vakasangana naye.
Awo Yakobo n’akwata ekkubo lye, bamalayika ba Katonda ne bamusisinkana.
2 Jakobho akati achivaona, akati, “Uyu ndiwo musasa waMwari!” Saka akatumidza nzvimbo iyo zita rokuti Mahanaimi.
Yakobo bwe yabalaba n’agamba nti, “Lino ggye lya Katonda.” Ekifo ekyo n’alyoka akituuma Makanayimu.
3 Jakobho akatuma nhume mberi kwake kumukoma wake Esau munyika yeSeiri, iyo nyika yeEdhomu.
Awo Yakobo n’atuma ababaka eri Esawu muganda we, mu kitundu kya Seyiri mu nsi ya Edomu.
4 Akavarayira akati, “Izvi ndizvo zvamunofanira kutaura kuna tenzi wangu Esau kuti: ‘Zvanzi nomuranda wenyu Jakobho, Ndakanga ndichigara naRabhani uye ndakagarako kusvikira zvino.
N’abagamba nti, “Mugambe mukama wange Esawu nti, ‘Omuddu wo Yakobo abadde ne Labbaani okutuusa kaakano,
5 Ndine mombe nembongoro, makwai nembudzi, varandarume navarandakadzi. Zvino ndiri kutuma shoko iri kuna she wangu, kuti ndiwane nyasha pamberi penyu.’”
alina ente, n’endogoyi, n’endiga era n’embuzi, abaweereza abakazi era n’abasajja. Kaakano aweerezza mukama we Esawu obubaka buno afune okusaasirwa mu maaso ge.’”
6 Nhume dzakati dzadzoka kuna Jakobho, dzakati kwaari, “Takaenda kumukoma wenyu Esau, uye ari kuuya zvino kuzosangana nemi, uye ana varume mazana mana.”
Ababaka bwe baakomawo eri Yakobo ne bamugamba nti, “Twatuuka ewa muganda wo Esawu era ajja okukusisinkana ng’alina abasajja ebikumi bina.”
7 Ipapo Jakobho akatya zvikuru uye akatambudzika, akaparadzanisa vanhu vaakanga anavo mumapoka maviri, uye makwai nemombe nengamerawo.
Olwo Yakobo n’atandika okutiira ddala, n’asoberwa. N’ayawulamu abantu be yali nabo, n’ayawulamu n’endiga, ebisibo bye yalina ne mu ŋŋamira, ebibinja bibiri,
8 Akafunga akati, “Kana Esau akasvika akaparadza rimwe boka, boka rasara ringapunyuka.”
ng’alowooza nti, “Esawu bw’anaatuuka ku kibinja ekisooka n’akizikiriza, kale ekibinja ekisigaddewo kinadduka.”
9 Ipapo Jakobho akanyengetera akati, “Haiwa Mwari wababa vangu Abhurahama, Mwari wababa vangu Isaka, imi Jehovha makati kwandiri, ‘Dzokera kunyika yokwako nokuhama dzako, uye ndichaita kuti ubudirire,’
Awo Yakobo n’agamba nti, “Ayi Katonda wa jjajjange Ibulayimu, era Katonda wa kitange Isaaka, Ayi Mukama eyaŋŋamba nti, ‘Ddayo mu nsi yammwe, mu bantu bo, nange nnaakugaggawazanga,’
10 ini handina kufanirwa nenyasha dzenyu dzose idzi uye nokutendeka kwamakaratidza muranda wenyu. Ndakanga ndichingova netsvimbo yangu bedzi pandakayambuka Jorodhani urwu, asi zvino ndava mapoka maviri.
sisaanira wadde akatundu akatono ak’okwagala kwo okutaggwaawo, wadde obwesigwa bwonna bw’olaze omuddu wo. Kubanga nasomoka omugga guno Yoludaani nga nnina muggobuggo; naye kaakano nfuuse ebibinja bibiri.
11 Ndinokumbira kuti mundiponese kubva muruoko rwomukoma wangu Esau, nokuti ndinotya kuti achasvika akandiuraya, uyewo madzimai aya navana vavo.
Nkusaba omponye mu mukono gwa muganda wange, Esawu, kubanga mmutya, talwa kujja n’atutta ffenna awamu n’abakazi n’abaana.
12 Asi imi makati, ‘Zvirokwazvo ndichaita kuti ubudirire uye kuti zvizvarwa zvako zvive sejecha regungwa, risingagoni kuverengwa.’”
Naye waŋŋamba nti, ‘Nnaakugaggawazanga, era abalikuvaamu baliba ng’omusenyu gw’ennyanja, ogutabalika obungi bwabwe.’”
13 Akapedza usiku hwose ipapo, uye pane zvaakanga anazvo, akatsaurira mukoma wake Esau chipo chaiti:
N’alyoka asula eyo ekiro ekyo, n’aggya ekirabo kya muganda we Esawu ku ebyo bye yalina:
14 mazana maviri enhunzvi dzemakwai namakumi maviri enhongo dzembudzi, mazana maviri amatunzvi amakwai namakondobwe makumi maviri,
embuzi enkazi ebikumi bibiri, embuzi ennume amakumi abiri, endiga enkazi ebikumi bibiri, endiga ennume amakumi abiri,
15 ngamera hadzi, makumi matatu navana vadzo, mhou dzemombe makumi mana nehando gumi, mbongoro hadzi makumi maviri uye nehono gumi.
eŋŋamira enkazi amakumi asatu n’obwana bwazo, ente enkazi amakumi ana n’ennume kkumi, n’endogoyi enkazi amakumi abiri, n’endogoyi ennume kkumi.
16 Akaita kuti zvichengetwe navaranda vake, boka rimwe nerimwe riri roga, uye akati kuvaranda vake, “Tungamirai mberi kwangu, uye musiye nzvimbo pakati pamapoka.”
N’azikwasa abaddu be, buli kisibo ng’akyawudde, n’agamba abaddu be nti, “Kale munkulemberemu, mulekeewo ebbanga wakati wa buli kisibo.”
17 Akarayira uya akanga achitungamirira akati, “Mukoma wangu Esau paanosangana nemi uye akakubvunza achiti, ‘Uri waaniko iwe, uye uri kuendepi, uye pfuma yose iri mberi kwako ndeyani?’
N’alagira eyakulembera nti, “Esawu, muganda wange bw’anaakusisinkana n’akubuuza nti, ‘Oli muntu w’ani? Ogenda wa? Na bino by’olina by’ani?’
18 ipapo iwe unofanira kupindura uchiti, ‘Ndezvomuranda wenyu Jakobho. Izvi zvipo zvatumirwa kuna she wangu Esau, uye iye ari kutevera mumashure medu.’”
N’olyoka omuddamu nti, ‘Bya muddu wo Yakobo, birabo by’aweerezza mukama wange Esawu, era tali wala naffe.’”
19 Akarayirawo wechipiri, wechitatu uye navamwe vose vaitevera mapoka achiti, “Munofanira kutaura chinhu chimwe chete kuna Esau pamunosangana naye.
Bw’atyo era n’alagira n’owokubiri n’owookusatu ne bonna abaagobereranga ebisibo nti, “Nammwe mwogere ebigambo bye bimu bwe musisinkana Esawu,
20 Uye murangarire kuti, ‘Muranda wenyu Jakobho ari kuuya mumashure medu.’” Nokuti akafunga akati, “Ndamunyaradza nezvipo zvandiri kumutumira mberi; pandinozomuona, zvichida achandigamuchira.”
era mugambe nti, ‘Omuddu wo Yakobo tali wala naffe.’” Kubanga Yakobo yalowooza nti, “Nnaamuwooyawooya n’ekirabo ekinkulembedde, n’oluvannyuma nnaalaba amaaso ge, osanga tankole kabi.”
21 Saka chipo chaJakobho chakatungamira mberi kwake, asi iye pachake akavata mumusasa. Nokuti akafunga akati, “Ndichamunyaradza nezvipo zvandiri kutumira mberi; pandinozomuona, zvichida achandigamuchira.”
Ekirabo kyekyava kimukulemberamu, ye n’asula mu kifo we yali ekiro ekyo.
22 Usiku ihwohwo Jakobho akamuka akatora vakadzi vake vaviri, varandakadzi vake navanakomana vake gumi nomumwe vakayambuka pazambuko reJabhoki.
Mu kiro ekyo Yakobo n’agolokoka n’atwala bakazi be bombi, n’abaweereza be abakazi ababiri, n’abaana be ekkumi n’omu n’asomokera e Yaboki.
23 Shure kwokuvayambutsa rukova, akayambutsawo zvose zvaakanga anazvo.
N’abatwala ne byonna bye yalina n’abasomosa omugga.
24 Saka Jakobho akasara ari oga, uye mumwe murume akaita mutsimba naye kusvikira utonga hwatsvuka.
Ye Yakobo n’asigala yekka, omusajja n’ameggana naye okutuusa obudde okukya.
25 Murume uye paakaona kuti akanga asingagoni kumukunda, akabata pahudyu yaJakobho zvokuti hudyu yakashodogoka paakanga achiita mutsimba nomunhu uyu.
Omusajja bwe yalaba nga taasobole Yakobo, n’akoma ku kinywa ky’ekisambi kye. Yakobo n’atandika okuwenyera nga bw’ameggana n’omusajja.
26 Ipapo murume uya akati, “Ndirege ndiende, nokuti utonga hwatsvuka.” Asi Jakobho akapindura akati, “Handingatongokuregei muchienda kusvikira mandiropafadza.”
Omusajja n’alyoka agamba Yakobo nti, “Ndeka ŋŋende kubanga obudde bugenda kukya.” Naye Yakobo n’ayogera nti, “Sijja kukuta nga tompadde mukisa.”
27 Murume uya akamubvunza akati, “Zita rako ndianiko?” Jakobho akapindura akati, “Jakobho.”
Omusajja n’amubuuza nti, “Erinnya lyo gw’ani?” N’amuddamu nti, “Yakobo.”
28 Ipapo murume uya akati, “Zita rako harichazonzi Jakobho, asi Israeri, nokuti wakarwa naMwari uye nomunhu ukakunda.”
Awo n’amugamba nti, “Tokyaddayo kuyitibwa Yakobo. Wabula onooyitibwanga Isirayiri, kubanga omegganye ne Katonda, awamu n’abantu n’owangula.”
29 Jakobho akati, “Ndapota hangu, ndiudzei zita renyu.” Asi iye akapindura akati, “Seiko uchibvunza zita rangu?” Ipapo akamuropafadza.
Awo ne Yakobo n’amugamba nti, “Mbuulira erinnya lyo.” Naye ye n’amuddamu nti, “Lwaki ombuuza erinnya lyange?” Awo n’amuwa omukisa.
30 Saka Jakobho akatumidza nzvimbo iyo zita rokuti Penieri, akati, “Nokuti ndaona Mwari chiso nechiso, asi handina kufa.”
Yakobo ekifo ekyo kyeyava akiyita Penieri, ng’agamba nti, “Kubanga ndabaganye ne Katonda, kyokka obulamu bwange ne busigalawo.”
31 Zuva rakakwira pamusoro pake, paakanga opfuura Penieri, uye akanga achikamhina nokuda kwehudyu yake.
Enjuba n’evaayo ne mwakako nga bw’asala Penieri, ng’awenyera olw’obuvune mu kisambi kye.
32 Naizvozvo kusvikira zuva ranhasi vaIsraeri havadyi runda rakabatanidzwa nehudyu, nokuti hudyu yaJakobho yakanga yakuvadzwa pedyo nerunda.
Abayisirayiri kyebava batalya kinywa ky’ekisambi na buli kati, kubanga ekyo omusajja wa Katonda kye yakomako.
