Genesis 32
1 Likewise, Jacob continued on the journey that he had begun. And the Angels of God met him.
HELE aku la o Iakoba i kona hele ana, a halawai mai la na anela o ke Akua me ia.
2 When he had seen them, he said, “These are the Encampments of God.” And he called the name of that place Mahanaim, that is, ‘Encampments.’
A ike aku la o Iakoba ia lakou, i aku la ia, O ka puali kaua keia o ke Akua: a kapa iho la ia i ka inoa o ia wahi, o I Mahanaima.
3 Then he also sent messengers before him to his brother Esau, in the land of Seir, in the region of Edom.
Hoouna aku la o Iakoba i na elele imua ona io Esau la i kona kaikuaana, ma ka aina o Seira, oia ka aina o Edoma.
4 And he instructed them, saying: “You shall speak in this way to my lord Esau: ‘Your brother Jacob says these things: “I have sojourned with Laban, and I have been with him until the present day.
Kauoha aku la ia ia lakou, i aku la, Penei ka oukou e olelo aku ai i kuu haku, ia Esau; Ke i mai nei o kau kauwa o Iakoba penei, Ua noho pu au me Labana, ua kali aku no wau ilaila a hiki i neia manawa.
5 I have oxen, and donkeys, and sheep, and men servants, and women servants. And now I send an ambassador to my lord, so that I may find favor in your sight.”’”
Ia'u no na bipi, na hoki, na holoholona, me na kauwakane a me na kauwawahine; a ua hoouna aku no wau e hai aku i kuu haku, i loaa ia'u ke alohaia imua o kou maka.
6 And the messengers returned to Jacob, saying, “We went to your brother Esau, and behold, he rushes to meet you with four hundred men.”
Hoi hou mai la na elele io Iakoba la, i mai la, Hele aku la makou i kou kaikuaana io Esau la; a ke hele mai nei hoi oia e halawai me oe, a me ia na haneri kanaka eha.
7 Jacob was very afraid. And in his terror, he divided the people who were with him, likewise the flocks, and the sheep, and the oxen, and the camels, into two companies,
Alaila, makau nui iho la o Iakoba, a ua pilikia loa: mahele ae la oia i na kanaka me ia, i na holoholona, i na bipi a me na kamelo, elua poe;
8 saying: “If Esau goes to one company, and strikes it, the other company, which is left behind, will be saved.”
I aku la, Ina e hele mai o Esau, a pepehi mai i kekahi poe, alaila e pakele ka poe i koe.
9 And Jacob said: “God of my father Abraham, and God of my father Isaac, O Lord who said to me: ‘Return to your land, and to the place of your nativity, and I will do well for you.’
I aku la o Iakoba, E ke Akua o kun kupunakane o Aberahama, ke Akua o kuu makuakane o Isaaka, e Iehova, ka mea nana i olelo mai ia'u, E hoi hou aku oe i kou aina, a i kou poe hoahanau, a e lokomaikai aku no au ia oe:
10 I am less than any of your compassions and your truth, which you have fulfilled to your servant. With my staff I crossed over this Jordan. And now I go back with two companies.
Aole au e pono no na lokomaikai a pau a me ka oiaio a pau au i hoike mai ai, i kau kauwa nei; no ka mea, me kuu kookoo iho i hele mai ai au ma keia kapa o loredane; a ua lilo no wau ano i elua poe.
11 Rescue me from the hand of my brother Esau, for I am very afraid of him, lest perhaps he may come and strike down the mother with the sons.
Ke pule aku nei au ia oe, e hoopakele ae ae ia'u mai ka lima aku o kuu kaikuaana, mai ka lima o Esau: no ka mea, ke makau nei au ia ia, o hele mai nei oia e pepehi mai ia'u me ka makuwahine a me na kamalii.
12 You did say that you would do well by me, and that you would expand my offspring like the sand of the sea, which, because of its multitude, cannot be numbered.”
Ua olelo mai oe, E lokomaikai io no wau ia oe, a e hoonui au i kau poe mamo e like me ke one o ke kai, aole e pau lakou i ka heluia no ka lehulehu.
13 And when he had slept there that night, he separated, from the things that he had, gifts for his brother Esau:
Moe iho la ia malaila ia po; lalau aku la ia i na mea i loaa i kona lima, i makana na kona kaikuaana, na Esau,
14 two hundred she-goats, twenty he-goats, two hundred ewes, and twenty rams,
I elua haneri kao wahine, me na kao kane he iwakalua; elua haneri hipa wahine, me na hipa kane he iwakalua,
15 thirty milking camels with their young, forty cows, and twenty bulls, twenty she-donkeys, and ten of their young.
He kanakolu kamelo waiu, me ka lakou mau keiki; he kanaha bipi wahine, me na bipi kane he umi; he iwakalua hoki wahine a me na hokikeiki he umi.
16 And he sent them by the hands of his servants, each flock separately, and he said to his servants: “Pass before me, and let there be a space between flock and flock.”
Haawi aku la oia ia mau mea i ka lima o kana poe kauwa, a kaawale kekahi poe me kahi poe; i aku la ia i kana poe kauwa, E hele e aku oukou mamua o'u, a e hookaawale i kahi poe me kahi poe.
17 And he instructed the first, saying: “If you happen to meet my brother Esau, and he questions you: “Whose are you?” or, “Where are you going?” or, “Whose are these which follow you?”
Kauoha aku la ia i ka mea i hele mamua, i aku la, A halawai mai ko'u kaikuaana o Esau me oe, a ninau mai ia oe, i ka i ana mai, Nowai oe? Mahea oe e hele nei? Nawai hoi keia poe mamua ou?
18 you shall respond: “Your servant Jacob’s. He has sent them as a gift to my lord Esau. And he is also coming after us.”
Alaila, e olelo aku oe, Na kau kauwa, na Iakoba lakou nei, ua hoounaia mai, i makana na ko'u haku na Esau: eia ae hoi oia mahope o makou.
19 Similarly, he gave orders to the second, and the third, and to all who followed the flocks, saying: “Speak these same words to Esau, when you find him.
Pela hoi oia i kauoha aku ai i ka lua a me ke kolu, a me ka poe a pau i hahai mahope o na pua holoholona, i ka i ana, Pela hoi oukou e olelo aku ai ia Esau, i ka wa e loaa'i ia oukou ia.
20 And you will add: ‘Your servant Jacob himself also follows after us, for he said: “I will appease him with the gifts that go ahead, and after this, I will see him; perhaps he will be gracious to me.”’”
E i aku hoi oukou, Eia ae kau kauwa o Iakoba mahope o makou. No ka mea, i iho la ia, E hoolaulea aku au ia ia i ka makana e hele la mamua o'u, a mahope iho e ike aku au i kona maka; a e maliu mai paha ia ia'u.
21 And so the gifts went before him, but he himself lodged that night in the camp.
Pela i hele aku ai ka makana ma kela kapa imua ona: a moe pu iho la oia ia po me ka huakai.
22 And when he had arisen early, he took his two wives, and the same number of handmaids, with his eleven sons, and he crossed over the ford of Jabbok.
Ala ae la oia ia po, lalau aku la ia i kana mau wahine elua, me kana mau kauwawahine elua, a me kana mau keiki kane he umikumamakahi, a hele aku la ma kahi papau o Iaboka ma kela kapa.
23 And having delivered over all the things that belonged to him,
Lalau aku la ia ia lakou, hoouna aku la ia lakou ma kela kapa o ke kahawai, a hoouka aku la hoi i kana mau mea a pau.
24 he remained alone. And behold, a man wrestled with him until morning.
O Iakoba wale no i koe: a hakoko mai la kekahi kanaka me ia, a wehe ae la ke alaula o ke ao.
25 And when he saw that he would not be able to overcome him, he touched the nerve of his thigh, and immediately it withered.
A ike iho la kela, aole ia i lanakila maluna ona, papai mai la ia i ka hena o kona uha, a ua kapeke ae la ka huamoa o ko Iakoba uha, i kona hakoko ana me ia.
26 And he said to him, “Release me, for now the dawn ascends.” He responded, “I will not release you, unless you bless me.”
I mai la kela, E kuu ae oe ia'u, no ka mea, ke wehe mai la ke alaula. I aku la oia, Aole au e kuu aku ia oe, a hoomaikai mai oe ia'u.
27 Therefore he said, “What is your name?” He answered, “Jacob.”
Ninau mai la kela ia ia, Owai kou inoa? I aku la oia, O Iakoba.
28 But he said, “Your name will not be called Jacob, but Israel; for if you have been strong against God, how much more will you prevail against men?”
I mai la kela, Aole e hea hou ia kou inoa, o Iakoba; aka, o Iseraela: no ka mea, he ikaika kou imua o ke Akua; a e lanakila hoi oe maluna o na kanaka.
29 Jacob questioned him, “Tell me, by what name are you called?” He responded, “Why do you ask my name?” And he blessed him in the same place.
Ninau aku la o Iakoba, i aku la, Ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e hai mai oe ia'u i kou inoa. I mai la kela, Heaha kau i ninau mai ai i ko'u inoa? A hoomaikai mai la kela ia ia ilaila.
30 And Jacob called the name of the place Peniel, saying, “I have seen God face to face, and my soul has been saved.”
Kapa aku la o Iakoba i ka inoa o ia wahi o i Peniela: No ka mea, ua ike iho nei au i ke Akua, he maka no he maka, a ua malamaia kuu ola.
31 And immediately the sun rose upon him, after he had crossed beyond Peniel. Yet in truth, he limped on his foot.
Puka mai la ka la maluna ona i kona hele ana ae maluna o Penuela, kapeke ae la oia maluna o kona uha.
32 For this reason, the sons of Israel, even to the present day, do not eat the nerve that withered in Jacob’s thigh, because he touched the nerve of his thigh and it was obstructed.
No ia mea, aole e ai na mamo a Iseraela i ke olona i eeke, ka mea ma ka uha, a hiki i keia la: no ka mea, papai mai la kela i ka hena o ko Iakoba uha ma ke olona i eeke.
