Genesis 32
1 Jacob also went on the journey he had begun: and the angels of God met him.
Basa ma, Yakob se laoꞌ rakandoo. Ma Lamatualain ate nara mia sorga rema randaa ro e.
2 And when he saw them, he said: These are the camps of God, and he called the name of that place Mahanaim, that is, Camps.
Ana nita se ma, olaꞌ nae, “Ia, Lamatualain soldꞌadꞌu nara mamana hahae ao nara!” Naa de, ana babꞌae mamanaꞌ naa Mahanaim (sosoa na ‘mamana hahaeꞌ rua’).
3 And he sent messengers before him to Esau his brother to the land of Seir to the country of Edom:
Basa naa ma, Yakob denu atahori nara hira, lao raꞌahuluꞌ risiꞌ nusa Edom (nara feaꞌ na, Seir), fo rafadꞌe aꞌa na Esau rae, eni nae nema.
4 And he commanded them, saying: Thus shall ye speak to my lord Esau: Thus saith thy brother Jacob: I have sojourned with Laban, and have been with him until this day.
Yakob denu se nae, “Mi mifadꞌe au aꞌa ngga Esau taꞌo ia: ‘Malangga Esau! Malangga ate na, odꞌi Yakob, fee dudꞌuꞌa-aꞌafiꞌ neu malangga. Mia au lalao ngga dalahulu na, losa faiꞌ ia, malangga ate na ia, leo sia toꞌo Labꞌan ume na.
5 I have oxen, and asses, and sheep, and menservants, and womenservants: and now I send a message to my lord, that I may find favour in thy sight.
Ia naa, malangga ate na ia, naꞌena sapi, keledei, hiek-lombo, ma ate touꞌ ma inaꞌ. Au fee atahori ia ra raꞌahuluꞌ, fo rafadꞌe malangga, au uꞌuma ngga. Au oꞌe, malangga hii simbo hai no maloleꞌ.” Yakob denu basa taꞌo naa ma, atahori naa ra lao.
6 And the messengers returned to Jacob, saying: We came to Esau thy brother, and behold he cometh with speed to meet thee with four hundred men.
Ara baliꞌ risiꞌ Yakob ma, rafadꞌe rae, “Hai mindaa mo amaꞌ aꞌa na Esau ena. Ia naa, ana nema no touꞌ natun haa, fo rae randaa ro amaꞌ.”
7 Then Jacob was greatly afraid; and in his fear divided the people that was with him, and the flocks, and the sheep, and the oxen, and the camels, into two companies,
Yakob rena nala ma, tenda na rombe, huu namatau nala seli. De ana bꞌanggi atahori nara no banda nara, neu nononggoꞌ rua.
8 Saying: If Esau come to one company and destroy it, the other company that is left shall escape.
Ana duꞌa nae, “Mete ma Esau nema namue mana sia mataꞌ ra, naa, mana sia deaꞌ ra bisa rela sangga masodꞌa.”
9 And Jacob said: O God of my father Abraham, and God of my father Isaac, O Lord, who saidst to me: Return to thy land and to the place of thy birth, and I will do well for thee,
Basa ma, Yakob hule-oꞌe nae, “Lamatualain, e! Lamatualain fo au baꞌi Abraham no ama Isak ngga beꞌuteeꞌ a. Rena au dei! Fai maꞌahulu na, Lamatualain denu au baliꞌ uma sia bobꞌonggi nggara, sia nusaꞌ ia. Ma Lamatualain o helu nae, dei fo Lamatualain tao natetu basa ia ra.
10 I am not worthy of the least of all thy mercies, and of thy truth which thou hast fulfilled to thy servant. With my staff I passed over this Jordan; and now I return with two companies.
Au nda undaa sa te, Lamatualain sue au, ma mete-seꞌu au nakandooꞌ a. Maꞌahulu na, au nggani loe Yarden ia, au endi akaꞌ a teteas. Te ia naa, au baliꞌ uma endi atahori no banda nononggoꞌ rua.
11 Deliver me from the hand of my brother Esau, for I am greatly afraid of him: lest perhaps he come, and kill the mother with the children.
Au umutau, afiꞌ losa aꞌa Esau nema namue fo tao nisa basa hai. De au oꞌe Lamatualain fee masodꞌa neu au, o basa sao-ana nggara, mia e.
12 Thou didst say that thou wouldst do well by me, and multiply my seed like the sand of the sea, which cannot be numbered for multitude.
Lamatualain o mana helu mae fee au papala-babꞌanggiꞌ nae-nae, ma tao tititi-nonosi nggara boe ramaheta, onaꞌ a saraꞌae sia tasi suu na, losa atahori nda ito-reken rala sa.”
13 And when he had slept there that night, he set apart, of the things which he had, presents for his brother Esau.
Basa ma, Yakob sungguꞌ sia mamanaꞌ naa. Mbila fefetu na ma, ana haꞌi banda nae fee aꞌa na Esau.
14 Two hundred she goats, twenty he goats, two hundred ewes, and twenty rams,
Ana tengga nala bibꞌi hiek ine natun rua, bibꞌi hiek mone rua nulu, bibꞌi lombo ine natun rua, bibꞌi lombo mone rua nulu,
15 Thirty milch camels with their colts, forty kine, and twenty bulls, twenty she asses, and ten of their foals.
banda onta ine telu nulu ro ana nara feꞌe mana susuꞌ, sapi ine haa nulu, sapi mone sanahulu, keledei ine rua nulu, ma keledei mone sanahulu.
16 And he sent them by the hands of his servants, every drove by itself, and he said to his servants: Go before me, and let there be a space between drove and drove.
Ana banggi banda ra mataꞌ esa-esaꞌ no nononggo na. Ma ana fee nononggoꞌ esa-esaꞌ no manatadꞌa na. Ana nafadꞌe se nae, “Laoꞌ miꞌihuluꞌ. Dei fo au tungga deaꞌ. Te hei musi minea fo nononggoꞌ esa naꞌadꞌooꞌ no esa.”
17 And he commanded the first, saying: If thou meet my brother Esau, and he ask thee: Whose art thou? or whither goest thou? or whose are these before thee?
Ma Yakob parenda manatadꞌa mia nononggoꞌ maꞌahuluꞌ a nae, “Mete ma au aꞌa ngga Esau nandaa no nggo, ma natane nae, ‘Ho mae bee muu? Ho ia, seka ate na? Banda ia ra, seka ena nara?’
18 Thou shalt answer: Thy servant Jacob’s: he hath sent them as a present to my lord Esau: and he cometh after us.
naa, musi mutaa mae, ‘Banda ia ra, malangga ate na Yakob ena na. Ana haitua fee aꞌa na, Esau. Te ana feꞌe tungga dea.
19 In like manner he commanded the second and the third, and all that followed the droves, saying: Speak ye the same words to Esau, when ye find him.
Yakob o fee parendaꞌ onaꞌ naa neu basa manatadꞌa feaꞌ nara nae, “Mete ma mindaa mo aꞌa Esau, fee banda naa ra reu e, dei fo mifadꞌe mae au feꞌe tungga deaꞌ.” Ana duꞌa nae, mete ma fee basa banda naa ra reu Esau, naa, Esau rala na namaloa no e.
20 And ye shall add: Thy servant Jacob himself also followeth after us: for he said: I will appease him with the presents that go before, and afterwards I will see him, perhaps he will be gracious to me.
21 So the presents went before him, but himself lodged that night in the camp.
Dadꞌi ana haitua banda ra raꞌahuluꞌ, te tetembaꞌ naa, ana feꞌe nahani sia naa.
22 And rising early he took his two wives, and his two handmaids, with his eleven sons, and passed over the ford of Jaboc.
Tetembaꞌ naa, Yakob fela, de naꞌabꞌue sao nara ruꞌa se, sao tias nara ruꞌa se, ma ana nara sanahulu esa. Ana denu se nggani raꞌahuluꞌ risiꞌ loe Yabok seriꞌ.
23 And when all things were brought over that belonged to him,
Ara losa seriꞌ ma, ana haitua basa hata-heto nara naa reu.
24 He remained alone: and behold a man wrestled with him till morning.
Te Yakob mesaꞌ ne nahani sia naa. Boe ma, touꞌ esa nema, napote no e losa deka manggarelo.
25 And when he saw that he could not overcome him, he touched the sinew of his thigh, and forthwith it shrank.
Touꞌ a medꞌa naeꞌ a kala ma, ana hemba Yakob soꞌe noo na, de rui bobꞌonggo na lao hela manggo na.
26 And he said to him: Let me go, for it is break of day. He answered: I will not let thee go except thou bless me.
Boe ma, touꞌ a nae, “Mboꞌi au, te mbeifen te, relo a todꞌa ena.” Te Yakob nataa nae, “Olaꞌ fee au papala-babꞌanggiꞌ, dei fo au mboꞌi nggo!”
27 And he said: What is thy name? He answered: Jacob.
Touꞌ a nataa nae, “Ho naram, seka?” Nataa nae, “Yakob.”
28 But he said: Thy name shall not be called Jacob, but Israel: for if thou hast been strong against God, how much more shalt thou prevail against men?
Te touꞌ a olaꞌ nae, “Ho naram, nda Yakob sa ena. Mia leleꞌ ia, atahori roꞌe nggo rae Israꞌel, huu mufetu mo atahori ma Lamatualain, losa musenggiꞌ se.” (Naraꞌ Israꞌel sosoa na ‘mana napote no Lamatualain’.)
29 Jacob asked him, Tell me by what name art thou called? He answered: Why dost thou ask my name? And he blessed him in the same place.
Ma Yakob nataa nae, “Ho naram, seka?” Te touꞌ a nae, “Mutane nara ngga, tao sa?” Boe ma ana olaꞌ fee papala-babꞌanggiꞌ neu Yakob sia naa.
30 And Jacob called the name of the place Phanuel, saying: I have seen God face to face, and my soul has been saved.
Boe ma Yakob olaꞌ nae, “Au ita Lamatualain mata Na, te au feꞌe masodꞌaꞌ.” Huu naa, ana babꞌae mamanaꞌ naa Peniel, sosoan ‘Lamatualain mata na’.
31 And immediately the sun rose upon him, after he was past Phanuel; but he halted on his foot.
Relo a todꞌa ma, Yakob lao hela mamanaꞌ naa. Te ana laoꞌ doka-doka, huu saka buku na nelasala.
32 Therefore the children of Israel, unto this day, eat not the sinew, that shrank in Jacob’s thigh: because he touched the sinew of his thigh and it shrank.
Naa de losa fai ia, atahori Israꞌel ra nda raa sisi banda saka bukuꞌ sa, huu Lamatualain poko nasalaꞌ baꞌi Yakob saka buku na.
