Then Jacob lifted up his eyes and looked, and lo! Esau, coming in, —and with him, four hundred men. So he divided the children—unto Leah and unto Rachel, and unto the two handmaids;
2 Hichun asoh numei le achate ho jouse amasat sah in, abanin Leah le achate achesah in, chule achaina in Rachel le Joseph apansah e.
and put the handmaids and their children first, —and Leah and her children next, and Rachel and Joseph next;
3 Chuin Jacob ama mong mong amaho jouse masanga chun achen, aupa heng ahin phah toh kahsen sagi vei jen tol'a abohkhup in ahi.
but he himself, passed over before them, and bowed himself to the earth seven times, until he had come near unto his brother.
4 Hichun Esau alhai phei jin apum koijeng in, chule angong koiya achop a ahile ani lhon in aki ka lhon tai.
Then ran Esau to meet him, and embraced him, and fell on his neck, —and they wept.
5 Hichun Esau in numei ho chule achate ho chu aven adong in, “Amaho hi koi hiuva ham,” ati. Jacob in adonbut in, “Hiche chapang hohi Pathen in na sohpa phatthei eibohna ahi,” ati.
Then lifted he up his eyes, and beheld the women and the children, and said What are these to thee? And he said—The children wherewith God hath favoured thy servant,
6 Hichun soh numei teni le achate hon ahin nailut un Esau masanga chun abohkhup tauvin ahi.
Then came near the handmaids, they—and their children, —and bowed themselves.
7 Leah le achate jong ahung nai lut uvin abohkhup'in asalam uve; chule anu khah pen in Joseph le Rachel ahung nailut lhon in abohkhup lhon in salam abol lhon tai.
Then came near Leah also with her children, —and they bowed themselves. And afterwards, came near Joseph with Rachel, and they bowed themselves,
8 Esau in adong tan, “Ahile hiche kahin kitopi gancha honpi chu ipi na bolna ham,” ati. Jacob'in adonbut in, “Nangma masang'a lunglhai na kamuna tei ding kati ahi,” ati.
Then said he, What to thee is all this camp, which I have fallen in with? And he said, —To find favour in the eyes of my lord.
9 Esau in adonbut in, “Kanao keiman jong tamtah kanei nai ati, nangma thil chu nang ding in ki koi tan,” ati.
Then said Esau, I have an abundance, —my brother, be thine what thou hast!
10 Ahin Jacob in asei teiyin, “Nangman hiche kipa thilpeh hohi nalah louva hithei lou ahi, keiman nangma mai kamu hi Pathen mai mu tobang kahi, nangma mai kamu theiya nanui awgin kajah hi thina akona galkai kahitai,” ati.
Then said Jacob, Nay, I pray thee, if, I pray thee, I have found favour in thine eyes, then thou wilt take my present at my hand, —For on this account, hath my seeing thy face been like seeing the face of God in that thou wast well-pleased with me.
11 Lungset tah in hiche thilpeh hohi neisan peh teiyin, Pathen in ka ngaichat jouse eipe tai, hichun Jacob'in ahasei behset jeh chun Esau chun thilpeh ho chu asang tai.
Take, I pray thee my blessing which hath been brought in to thee, because God hath shewed me favour and because I have everything. So he was urgent with him and he took it.
12 Esau in aseiye, “Aphai atitai, keiman na lamkai jing ting eini che ta hite.”
Then he said, Let us break up and go, and let me go on before thee.
13 Jacob'in adonbut in, “Ka Pakai neihet them peh mai jin, chate ho hi alhasam thei lheh na laiyun, gancha bongnou hole kelnou ho jong api hontoh ki khen thei lou lai ahiuvin, nikhat sunga hatah in kihoi pai taleh gancha honte aboncha thigam jeng thei ahiuve.
And he said unto him, My lord, is taking note, that, the children are tender, —and the flocks and the herds are giving suck with me, —and, should I overdrive them a single day, then would all the flocks die.
14 Hijeh chun lungset tah in na sohpa masanga kapu ana masa jeng in lang keiman olcha chan ka masanga gancha ho ki kalvan bang ule chapang te kikalvan bang bangu hin, Seir gam'a kapu heng kahin phah kah sen hung nange ati.
Let my lord, I pray thee pass over before his servant, and let, me, lead on in my own easy way, at the pace of the cattle that are before me, and at the pace of the children, until that I come in unto my lord, towards Seir.
15 Apha lheh jenge tin Esau in adonbut in, “Hinlah ka miteho them khat tou dalhang kating nangho lam hil ding chule boina le hahsat na a pan lathei ding ati, Jacob in adonbut in, “Hiche hochu ngai ponte, lungset umtah'a kapu neina lamdot hi alhingset in ka sange,” ati.
Then said Esau: Let me leave, I pray thee, along with thee, some of the people who are with me! And he said—Why so? let me find favour in the eyes of my lord!
16 Hichun Esau chu aki nunghei jin Seir gam jon ding chun hiche ni mama chun achekit tai.
So Esau returned, that day, to his journey towards Mount Seir.
17 Jacob vang chu ahile Succoth lama achen hiche muna chun inlim gancha ho din asong in, chule ama chenna ding in jong in aki sahtai. Hiche jeh a chu hiche mun chu Succoth kiti ahi. (Succoth tichu chenna mun tina ahi).
But, Jacob, brake up towards Succoth, and built for himself a house, for his cattle, made he places of shelter, for which cause, the name of the place was called, Succoth.
18 Phat chomkhat jouvin Jacob chu Padan-Ram lammah kon in Shechem Canaan gam ahung lhung tan, hiche khopi phah masanga chun ngah mun khat asem kit tai.
And Jacob came in peace to the city of Shechem, which is in the land of Canaan, —when he came in from Padan-aram, —and he encamped before the city.
19 Jacob'in Shechempa Hamor chate khut akon chun gam leiset phabep sum (Qesitah) jakhat in aki choh in hikom achun ponbuh akison tai.
And he bought the portion of the field where he had spread out his tent, at the hand of the sons of Hamor, father of Shechem, —for a hundred kesitahs.

And he set up there an altar, —and called it, El-elohe-Israel.
