Genesis 32
1 Jakọbu sì ń bá ọ̀nà tirẹ̀ lọ, àwọn angẹli Ọlọ́run sì pàdé rẹ̀.
And on his way Jacob came face to face with the angels of God.
2 Nígbà tí Jakọbu rí wọn, ó wí pé, “Àgọ́ Ọlọ́run ni èyí!” Ó sì pe orúkọ ibẹ̀ ni Mahanaimu.
And when he saw them he said, This is the army of God: so he gave that place the name of Mahanaim.
3 Jakọbu sì rán àwọn oníṣẹ́ ṣáájú ara rẹ̀ sí Esau arákùnrin rẹ̀ ni ilẹ̀ Seiri ní orílẹ̀-èdè Edomu.
Now Jacob sent servants before him to Esau, his brother, in the land of Seir, the country of Edom;
4 Ó pàṣẹ fún wọn pé, “Èyí ni ẹ̀yin yóò wí fún Esau olúwa mi, Jakọbu ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ wí pé, ‘Mo ti ṣe àtìpó lọ́dọ̀ Labani títí ó fi di àsìkò yìí.
And he gave them orders to say these words to Esau: Your servant Jacob says, Till now I have been living with Laban:
5 Mo ní màlúù, kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́, àgùntàn àti ewúrẹ́. Mo tún ni àwọn ìránṣẹ́kùnrin àti ìránṣẹ́bìnrin. Mo ń ránṣẹ́ yìí sí olúwa mi kí èmi le è rí ojúrere rẹ.’”
And I have oxen and asses and flocks and men-servants and women-servants: and I have sent to give my lord news of these things so that I may have grace in his eyes.
6 Nígbà tí àwọn ìránṣẹ́ náà padà tọ Jakọbu wà, wọ́n wí pé “Esau arákùnrin rẹ ti múra láti wá pàdé rẹ pẹ̀lú irinwó ọkùnrin.”
When the servants came back they said, We have seen your brother Esau and he is coming out to you, and four hundred men with him.
7 Pẹ̀lú ìbẹ̀rù àti ìbànújẹ́ ni Jakọbu fi pín àwọn ènìyàn tí ó wà lọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀ sí ìpín méjì, ó sì pín àwọn ẹran ọ̀sìn, agbo ẹran àti ìbákasẹ bẹ́ẹ̀ pẹ̀lú.
Then Jacob was in great fear and trouble of mind: and he put all the people and the flocks and the herds and the camels into two groups;
8 Nítorí ó rò ó nínú rẹ̀ pé, “Bí Esau bá kọjú ogun sí ìpín kan, ìpín kejì yóò sá àsálà.”
And said, If Esau, meeting one group, makes an attack on them, the others will get away safely.
9 Nígbà náà ni Jakọbu gbàdúrà pe, “Ọlọ́run Abrahamu baba mi, àti Ọlọ́run Isaaki baba mi, Olúwa tí ó wí fún mi pé, ‘Padà sí orílẹ̀-èdè rẹ àti sọ́dọ̀ àwọn ìbátan rẹ, èmi yóò sì ṣe ọ́ ní rere,’
Then Jacob said, O God of my father Abraham, the God of my father Isaac, the Lord who said to me, Go back to your country and your family and I will be good to you:
10 èmi kò tilẹ̀ yẹ fún àánú àti òtítọ́ tí o ń fihàn fún ìránṣẹ́ rẹ. Nítorí pé, kìkì ọ̀pá mi ni mo mu kúrò ni ilé kọjá Jordani yìí, ṣùgbọ́n nísinsin yìí, èmi ti di ẹgbẹ́ méjì.
I am less than nothing in comparison with all your mercies and your faith to me your servant; for with only my stick in my hand I went across Jordan, and now I have become two armies.
11 Jọ̀wọ́ Olúwa gbà mí lọ́wọ́ Esau arákùnrin mi, nítorí ẹ̀rù ń bà mí pé yóò wá dojú ìjà kọ mí àti àwọn ìyàwó pẹ̀lú àwọn ọmọ mi.
Be my saviour from the hand of Esau, my brother: for my fear is that he will make an attack on me, putting to death mother and child.
12 Ṣùgbọ́n ìwọ ti ṣèlérí pé, ‘Èmi yóò mú ọ gbilẹ̀, èmi yóò sì mú kí àwọn ìran rẹ dà bì í yanrìn òkun tí ẹnikẹ́ni kò le è kà.’”
And you said, Truly, I will be good to you, and make your seed like the sand of the sea which may not be numbered.
13 Ó sì lo òru ọjọ́ náà níbẹ̀. Ó mú ẹ̀bùn fún Esau arákùnrin rẹ̀ nínú ohun ìní rẹ̀.
Then he put up his tent there for the night; and from among his goods he took, as an offering for his brother Esau,
14 Igba ewúrẹ́, ogún òbúkọ, igba àgùntàn, ogún àgbò,
Two hundred she-goats and twenty he-goats, two hundred females and twenty males from the sheep,
15 ọgbọ̀n abo ìbákasẹ pẹ̀lú ọmọ wọn, ogójì abo màlúù àti akọ màlúù mẹ́wàá, ogún abo kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ àti akọ kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ mẹ́wàá.
Thirty camels with their young ones, forty cows, ten oxen, twenty asses, and ten young asses.
16 Ó sì fi wọ́n lé àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ lọ́wọ́ ní ọ̀wọ̀ọ̀wọ́, ó sì wí fún wọn pé, “Ẹ lọ ṣáájú mi, kí ẹ sì jẹ́ kí àlàfo wà láàrín ọ̀wọ́ agbo ẹran kọ̀ọ̀kan sí èkejì.”
These he gave to his servants, every herd by itself, and he said to his servants, Go on before me, and let there be a space between one herd and another.
17 Ó pàṣẹ fún èyí tí ó ṣáájú pé, “Nígbà tí arákùnrin mi Esau bá pàdé rẹ tí ó sì béèrè ẹni tí ìwọ í ṣe àti ibi tí ìwọ ń lọ àti ẹni tí ó ni agbo ẹran tí ó wà lọ́dọ̀ rẹ,
And he gave orders to the first, saying, When my brother Esau comes to you and says, Whose servant are you, and where are you going, and whose are these herds?
18 nígbà náà ni ìwọ yóò wí pé, ‘Ti ìránṣẹ́ rẹ Jakọbu ni wọ́n. Ẹ̀bùn ni ó sì fi wọ́n ṣe fún Esau olúwa mi, òun pàápàá ń bọ̀ lẹ́yìn wa.’”
Then say to him, These are your servant Jacob's; they are an offering for my lord, for Esau; and he himself is coming after us.
19 Jakọbu sì pàṣẹ bẹ́ẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ fún ọ̀wọ́ kejì àti ẹ̀kẹta àti àwọn tókù tí ó tẹ̀lé agbo ẹran pé, “Ohun kan ṣoṣo yìí náà ni kí ẹ sọ fún Esau nígbà tí ẹ bá pàdé rẹ̀.
And he gave the same orders to the second and the third and to all those who were with the herds, saying, This is what you are to say to Esau when you see him;
20 Kí ẹ rí i dájú wí pé, ẹ sọ fún un pé, ‘Jakọbu ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ ń bọ̀ lẹ́yìn wa.’” Èrò Jakọbu ni láti fi àwọn ẹ̀bùn wọ̀nyí tu Esau lójú pé bóyá inú Esau yóò dùn sí òun nígbà tí àwọn bá pàdé.
And you are to say further, Jacob, your servant, is coming after us. For he said to himself, I will take away his wrath by the offering which I have sent on, and then I will come before him: it may be that I will have grace in his eyes.
21 Nítorí náà ẹ̀bùn Jakọbu ṣáájú rẹ̀ lọ, Jakọbu pàápàá sì lo òru ọjọ́ náà nínú àgọ́.
So the servants with the offerings went on in front, and he himself took his rest that night in the tents with his people.
22 Ó sì dìde ní òru ọjọ́ náà, ó mú àwọn aya rẹ̀ méjèèjì, àwọn ìránṣẹ́bìnrin rẹ̀ méjèèjì, àti àwọn ọmọkùnrin rẹ̀ mọ́kọ̀ọ̀kànlá, wọ́n sì kọjá ní ìwọdò Jabbok.
And in the night he got up, and taking with him his two wives and the two servant-women and his eleven children, he went over the river Jabbok.
23 Lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí ó ti rán wọn kọjá odò tán sí òkè odò, ó sì rán àwọn ohun ìní rẹ̀ kọjá pẹ̀lú.
He took them and sent them over the stream with all he had.
24 Ó sì ku Jakọbu nìkan, ọkùnrin kan sì bá a ja ìjàkadì títí ó fi di àfẹ̀mọ́júmọ́.
Then Jacob was by himself; and a man was fighting with him till dawn.
25 Ṣùgbọ́n nígbà tí ọkùnrin náà rí i pé òun kò le borí Jakọbu, ó fọwọ́ kàn án ní ọ̀ọ́kán ibi tí eegun itan ti bẹ̀rẹ̀, egungun náà sì yẹ̀ kúrò lórí ike, bí ó ti ń ja ìjàkadì.
But when the man saw that he was not able to overcome Jacob, he gave him a blow in the hollow part of his leg, so that his leg was damaged.
26 Nígbà náà ni ọkùnrin náà wí fún un pé, “Jẹ́ kí ń máa lọ, nítorí ojúmọ́ ti mọ́.” Ṣùgbọ́n Jakọbu dá a lóhùn pé, “Èmi kò ní jẹ́ kí o lọ, àyàfi bí o bá súre fún mi.”
And he said to him, Let me go now, for the dawn is near. But Jacob said, I will not let you go till you have given me your blessing.
27 Ọkùnrin náà béèrè orúkọ rẹ̀. Ó sì wí fún un pé, “Jakọbu ni òun ń jẹ́.”
Then he said, What is your name? And he said, Jacob.
28 Nígbà náà ni ọkùnrin náà wí pé, “Orúkọ rẹ kì yóò jẹ́ Jakọbu mọ́ bí kò ṣe Israẹli, nítorí pé ìwọ ti bá Ọlọ́run àti ènìyàn jà, o sì borí.”
And he said, Your name will no longer be Jacob, but Israel: for in your fight with God and with men you have overcome.
29 Jakọbu sì bẹ ọkùnrin náà pé, “Sọ orúkọ rẹ fún mi.” Ṣùgbọ́n ọkùnrin náà sá à dáhùn pé, “Èéṣe tí o ń béèrè orúkọ mi?” Lẹ́yìn náà ó súre fún Jakọbu níbẹ̀.
Then Jacob said, What is your name? And he said, What is my name to you? Then he gave him a blessing.
30 Jakọbu sì pe orúkọ ibẹ̀ ní Penieli pé, “Mo rí Ọlọ́run ní ojúkojú, síbẹ̀ a dá ẹ̀mí mi sí.”
And Jacob gave that place the name of Peniel, saying, I have seen God face to face, and still I am living.
31 Bí ó sì ti ń kọjá Penieli, oòrùn ràn bá a, ó sì ń tiro nítorí itan rẹ̀.
And while he was going past Peniel, the sun came up. And he went with unequal steps because of his damaged leg.
32 Ìdí nìyí tí àwọn ọmọ Israẹli kì í fi í jẹ iṣan tí ó wà ní ọ̀ọ́kán ibi tí eegun itan ti bẹ̀rẹ̀ títí di òní olónìí, nítorí níbi iṣan náà ni a ti fọwọ́ kan ibi tí egungun itan Jakọbu ti bẹ̀rẹ̀.
For this reason the children of Israel, even today, never take that muscle in the hollow of the leg as food, because the hollow of Jacob's leg was touched.
