Бытие 32
1 И Иаков иде в путь свой. И воззрев виде полк Божий воополчившийся: и сретоша его Ангели Божии.
And Jacob departed for his journey; and having looked up, he saw the host of God encamped; and the angels of God met him.
2 Рече же Иаков, егда виде их: полк Божий сей. И прозва имя месту тому Полки.
And Jacob said, when he saw them, This is the Camp of God; and he called the name of that place, Encampments.
3 Посла же Иаков послы пред собою ко Исаву брату своему в землю Сиир, в страну Едом,
And Jacob sent messengers before him to Esau his brother to the land of Seir, to the country of Edom.
4 и заповеда им глаголя: тако рцыте господину моему Исаву: тако глаголет раб твой Иаков: у Лавана обитах и умедлих даже до ныне:
And he charged them, saying, Thus shall you say to my lord Esau: Thus says your servant Jacob; I have sojourned with Laban and tarried until now.
5 и быша ми волове и ослы и овцы, и раби и рабыни: и послах поведати господину моему Исаву, дабы обрел раб твой благодать пред тобою.
And there were born to me oxen, and asses, and sheep, and menservants and women-servants; and I sent to tell my lord Esau, that your servant might find grace in your sight.
6 И возвратишася послы ко Иакову, глаголюще: ходихом ко брату твоему Исаву, и се, сам идет во сретение тебе, и четыриста мужей с ним.
And the messengers returned to Jacob, saying, We came to your brother Esau, and behold! he comes to meet you, and four hundred men with him.
7 Убояся же Иаков зело и в недоумении бе: и раздели люди сущыя с собою, и волы и велблюды и овцы на два полка,
And Jacob was greatly terrified, and was perplexed; and he divided the people that was with him, and the cows, and the camels, and the sheep, into two camps.
8 и рече Иаков: аще приидет Исав на един полк и изсечет и, будет вторый полк во спасении.
And Jacob said, If Esau should come to one camp, and strike it, the other camp shall be in safety.
9 Рече же Иаков: Бог отца моего Авраама и Бог отца моего Исаака, Господи Боже, Ты рекий ми: иди в землю рождения твоего, и благо тебе сотворю:
And Jacob said, God of my father Abraam, and God of my father Isaac, O Lord, you [are] he that said to me, Depart quickly to the land of your birth, and I will do you good.
10 довлеет ми от всея правды и от всея истины, юже сотворил еси рабу Твоему: с жезлом бо сим преидох Иордан сей, ныне же бех в два полка:
Let there be to me a sufficiency of all the justice and all the truth which you have wrought with your servant; for with this my staff I passed over this Jordan, and now I am become two camps.
11 изми мя от руки брата моего, от руки Исава: яко боюся аз его, да не когда пришед убиет мя и матерь с чады:
Deliver me from the hand of my brother, from the hand of Esau, for I am afraid of him, lest haply he should come and strike me, and the mother upon the children.
12 ты же рекл еси: благо тебе сотворю и положу семя твое яко песок морский, иже не изочтется от множества.
But you said, I will do you good, and will make your seed as the sand of the sea, which shall not be numbered for multitude.
13 И спа тамо нощи тоя, и взя, яже имяше дары, и посла Исаву брату своему:
And he slept there that night, and took of the gifts which he carried [with him], and sent out to Esau his brother,
14 коз двести, козлов двадесять, овец двести, овнов двадесять,
two hundred she-goats, twenty he-goats, two hundred sheep, twenty rams,
15 велблюдов дойных, и жребят их тридесять, волов четыредесять, юнцов десять, ослов двадесять и жребят десять:
milch camels, and their foals, thirty, forty kine, ten bulls, twenty asses, and ten colts.
16 и даде их рабом своим, (коеждо) стадо особо, и рече рабом своим: идите предо мною, и разстояние творите между стадом и стадом.
And he gave them to his servants [each] drove apart; and he said to his servants, Go on before me, and put a space between drove and drove.
17 И заповеда первому глаголя: аще тя срящет Исав брат мой и вопросит тя глаголя: чий еси, и камо идеши, и чия сия, яже пред тобою идут?
And he charged the first, saying, If Esau my brother meet you, and he ask you, saying, Whose are you? and whither would you go, and whose are these possessions advancing before you?
18 Речеши: раба твоего Иакова: дары посла господину моему Исаву: и се, сам за нами (идет).
You shall say, Your servant Jacob's; he has sent gifts to my lord Esau, and behold! he is behind us.
19 И заповеда первому, и второму, и третиему, и всем предидущым вслед стад сих глаголя: по словеси сему глаголите Исаву, егда обрящете его вы,
And he charged the first and the second and the third, and all that went before him after these flocks, saying, Thus shall you speak to Esau when you find him;
20 и рцыте: се, раб твой Иаков идет за нами: рече бо: укрощу лице его дарами предидущими его, и посем узрю лице его: негли бо приимет лице мое?
and you shall say, Behold your servant Jacob comes after us. For he said, I will propitiate his countenance with the gifts going before his presence, and afterwards I will behold his face, for perhaps he will accept me.
21 И предидяху дары пред лицем его, сам же преспа тоя нощи в полце.
So the presents went on before him, but he himself lodged that night in the camp.
22 Востав же тоя нощи, поя обе жены (своя) и обе рабыни и единонадесять сынов своих, и прейде брод Иавок:
And he rose up in that night, and took his two wives and his two servant-maids, and his eleven children, and crossed over the ford of Jaboch.
23 и взя их, и прейде поток, и преведе вся своя.
And he took them, and passed over the torrent, and brought over all his possessions.
24 Остася же Иаков един. И боряшеся с ним Человек даже до утра.
And Jacob was left alone; and a man wrestled with him till the morning.
25 Виде же, яко не может противу ему: и прикоснуся широте стегна его: и отерпе широта стегна Иаковля, егда боряшеся с Ним.
And he saw that he prevailed not against him; and he touched the broad part of his thigh, and the broad part of Jacob's thigh was benumbed in his wrestling with him.
26 И рече ему: пусти Мя: взыде бо заря. Он же рече: не пущу Тебе, аще не благословиши мене.
And he said to him, Let me go, for the day has dawned; but he said, I will not let you go, except you bless me.
27 Рече же ему: что ти имя есть? Он же рече: Иаков.
And he said to him, What is your name? and he answered, Jacob.
28 И рече ему: не прозовется ктому имя твое Иаков, но Исраиль будет имя твое: понеже укрепился еси с Богом и с человеки силен будеши.
And he said to him, Your name shall no longer be called Jacob, but Israel shall be your name; for you have prevailed with God, and shall be mighty with men.
29 Вопроси же Иаков и рече: повеждь ми имя Твое. И рече: вскую сие вопрошаеши ты имене Моего? Еже чудно есть. И благослови его тамо.
And Jacob asked and said, Tell me your name; and he said, Therefore do you ask after my name? and he blessed him there.
30 И прозва Иаков имя месту тому Вид Божий: видех бо Бога лицем к лицу, и спасеся душа моя.
And Jacob called the name of that place, the Face of God; for, [said he, ]I have seen God face to face, and my life was preserved.
31 Возсия же ему солнце, егда прейде Вид Божий: он же хромаше стегном своим.
And the sun rose upon him, when he passed the Face of God; and he halted upon his thigh.
32 Сего ради не ядят сынове Израилевы жилы, яже отерпе, яже есть в широте стегна, даже до дне сего: понеже прикоснуся широте стегна Иаковли жилы, яже отерпе.
Therefore the children of Israel will by no means eat of the sinew which was benumbed, which is on the broad part of the thigh, until this day, because [the angel] touched the broad part of the thigh of Jacob—[even] the sinew which was benumbed.
