Genesis 33
1 Jacob looked up and, behold, Esau was coming, and with him were four hundred men. Jacob divided the children among Leah, Rachel, and the two female servants.
Tango Jakobi atombolaki miso na ye, amonaki na mosika Ezawu koya elongo na bato nkama minei. Boye Jakobi akabolaki bana na ye: ndambo epai ya Lea, ndambo epai ya Rasheli mpe ndambo mosusu epai ya basali mibale ya basi.
2 Then he put the female servants and their children in front, followed by Leah and her children, and followed by Rachel and Joseph last of all.
Atiaki basali ya basi elongo na bana na bango na liboso; Lea mpe bana na ye na sima; mpe Rasheli na Jozefi na suka.
3 He himself went on ahead of them. He bowed toward the ground seven times, until he came near to his brother.
Ye moko alekaki liboso na bango mpe afukamaki na mabele mbala sambo wana azalaki kopusana liboso ya ndeko na ye ya mobali.
4 Esau ran to meet him, embraced him, hugged his neck, and kissed him. Then they wept.
Ezawu akimaki mbangu mpo na kokutana na ye; ayambaki ye, amibwakaki na nzoto na ye mpo na koyamba ye mpe apesaki ye beze; bongo bakomaki kolela.
5 When Esau looked up, he saw the women and the children. He said, “Who are these people with you?” Jacob said, “The children whom God has graciously given your servant.”
Tango atombolaki miso na ye, amonaki na mosika basi mpe bana. Atunaki: — Banani wana bazali elongo na yo? Jakobi azongisaki: — Ezali bana oyo Nzambe apesi, na bolingo na Ye, epai ya mosali na yo.
6 Then the female servants came forward with their children, and they bowed down.
Boye, basali ya basi elongo na bana na bango bapusanaki mpe bafukamaki.
7 Next Leah also and her children came forward and bowed down. Finally Joseph and Rachel came forward and bowed down.
Na sima, Lea elongo na bana na ye bayaki kofukama. Bongo na suka, Jozefi elongo na Rasheli bayaki mpe kofukama.
8 Esau said, “What do you mean by all these groups that I met?” Jacob said, “To find favor in the sight of my master.”
Ezawu atunaki: — Ngulupa nyonso oyo nakutani na yango, tina na yango nini? Jakobi azongisaki: — Ezali mpo ete nazwa ngolu na miso na yo, nkolo na ngai.
9 Esau said, “I have enough, my brother. Keep what you have for yourself.”
Kasi Ezawu azongisaki: — Ndeko na ngai, biloko nyonso oyo, nazali na yango ebele; bomba biloko na yo mpo na yo moko.
10 Jacob said, “No, please, if I have found favor in your eyes, then accept my gift from my hand, for indeed, I have seen your face, and it is like seeing the face of God, and you have accepted me.
Jakobi alobaki: — Nabondeli yo: soki nazwi ngolu na miso na yo, ndima kozwa biloko oyo lokola kado kowuta na maboko na ngai; pamba te ndenge namoni yo, ezali lokola namoni Nzambe, mpo ete oyambi ngai na boboto.
11 Please accept my gift that was brought to you, because God has dealt graciously with me, and because I have enough.” Thus Jacob urged him, and Esau accepted it.
Nabondeli yo penza, ndima makabo oyo namemeli yo; pamba te Nzambe nde apesaki ngai yango na ngolu na Ye mpe nazali na nyonso. Lokola Jakobi azalaki kaka kotia molende, Ezawu andimaki kozwa yango.
12 Then Esau said, “Let us be on our way. I will go before you.”
Ezawu alobaki: — Telema tokende, nakotambola na yo nzela moko.
13 Jacob said to him, “My master knows that the children are young, and that the sheep and the cattle are nursing their young. If they are driven hard even one day, all the animals will die.
Kasi Jakobi azongiselaki ye: — Oh nkolo na ngai! Oyebi malamu ete bana bazwi nanu makasi te, mpe nazali lisusu na bameme, bangombe mpe bantaba ya basi oyo ezali nanu komelisa mabele. Soki tomeki kotambolisa yango mbangu makasi kaka na mokolo moko, bibwele nyonso ekokufa.
14 Please let my master go on ahead of his servant. I will travel more slowly, at the pace of the livestock that are before me, and at the pace of the children, until I come to my master in Seir.”
Boye, tika ete nkolo na ngai akende liboso, wana ngai nakotambola malembe-malembe na sima, kolanda etamboli ya bibwele oyo ezali liboso na ngai, mpe kolanda etamboli ya bana, kino nakokoma epai ya nkolo na ngai, na Seiri.
15 Esau said, “Let me leave with you some of my men who are with me.” But Jacob said, “Why do that? Let me find favor in the sight of my lord.”
Ezawu alobaki: — Nabondeli yo, ndima ete natikela yo ndambo ya bato na ngai. Kasi Jakobi atunaki: — Mpo na nini kosala bongo? Tika ete nazwa kaka ngolu na miso ya nkolo na ngai!
16 So Esau that day started on his way back to Seir.
Boye, kaka na mokolo wana, Ezawu azwaki nzela mpe azongaki na Seiri.
17 Jacob traveled to Succoth, built himself a house, and made shelters for his livestock. Therefore the name of the place is called Succoth.
Nzokande, Jakobi akendeki na Sukoti. Atongaki kuna ndako mpo na ye moko mpe mpo na bibwele na ye; yango wana babengi esika yango Sukoti.
18 When Jacob came from Paddan Aram, he arrived safely at the city of Shechem, which is in the land of Canaan. He camped near the city.
Longwa na mokili ya Padani-Arami, Jakobi akomaki na kimia na engumba Sishemi oyo ezali na mokili ya Kanana; mpe atelemisaki ndako na ye ya kapo liboso ya engumba.
19 Then he bought the piece of ground where he had pitched his tent from the sons of Hamor, Shechem's father, for a hundred pieces of silver.
Na motuya ya bibende ya palata nkama moko, asombaki na maboko ya bana mibali ya Amori, tata ya Sishemi, eteni ya mabele epai wapi atongaki ndako na ye ya kapo.
20 There he set up an altar and called it El Elohe Israel.
Atongaki kuna etumbelo moko oyo abengaki: « El, Nzambe ya Isalaele. »
