Genesis 32 (RHG)

1Ar Yakube o nizor baisar uzu giye, edde Allar firista okkole hibar loi aiyore deha oiye.Jacob also went on his way, and the angels of God met him.

2Hitarare dekiyore Yakube hodde, "Itara Allar fouz okkol!" Hetolla he zagar nam diye Mahanaim.When Jacob saw them, he said, “This is the camp of God.” So he named that place Mahanaim.

3Ar Yakube hibar ãgottu hóborguwa okkolore Seir elehat Edom maṛot Išor hãse defeṛaiye.Jacob sent messengers ahead of him to his brother Esau in the land of Seir, the country of Edom.

4Yakube hitarare šikai diye, "Tũwara ãr malik Išore hoiye boli hoiba: 'Tũwar gulam Yakube hoiye: ãi Labonor hãse forbaš haiṭṭi edde etodin foijjonto heṛe aiššilam.He instructed them, “You are to say to my master Esau, ‘Your servant Jacob says: I have been staying with Laban and have remained there until now.

5Ãttu goru gada sool berasool edde gulam edde bandi ase. Ar ãi ãr malike bala nozore saibo ei aša loi ãi ei hóborgan tũware hãse defeṛair.'"I have oxen, donkeys, flocks, menservants, and maidservants. I have sent this message to inform my master, so that I may find favor in your sight.’”

6Ar hóborguwa okkol Yakubor hãse firi aišše, hitara hodde, "Ãra tũwar bái Išor hãse gilam, ar hibaye o tũware fũwati sair šot manuš loi saito aiyer."When the messengers returned to Jacob, they said, “We went to your brother Esau, and now he is coming to meet you—he and four hundred men with him.”

7Toi Yakube beši ḍoraye edde dilot ouskus oiye, ar hibar fũwati aššilde hitarare edde hibar goru edde berasoolor zãk okkol, ũṭ okkolore dui grup goijje.In great fear and distress, Jacob divided his people into two camps, as well as the flocks and herds and camels.

8Toi hibaye hodde, "Iše zodi aiyore ek dolore hamela gore, ar ek dol ziba basi takibo hiba dái zaigoi faribo."He thought, “If Esau comes and attacks one camp, then the other camp can escape.”

9Toi Yakube hodde, "Oh Mabud, ãr fordada Ibrahimor Allah, ãr baf Isakor Allah, tũi zibaye ãre hoila, 'Tor dešot tor egena okkolor hãse tui firizagoi, ãi tor balai goijjium.'Then Jacob declared, “O God of my father Abraham, God of my father Isaac, the LORD who told me, ‘Go back to your country and to your kindred, and I will make you prosper,’

10Tũwar ei gulamor mikka ze hár rahamot edde imandari dehayo, hin hono kissur laikka ãi no, kiyollahoile uggwa hator laṛi loi ei Zordan farailam, kintu ehon ãttu dui dol oiye.I am unworthy of all the kindness and faithfulness You have shown Your servant. Indeed, with only my staff I came across the Jordan, but now I have become two camps.

11Aroz gori, ãr bái Išor hatottu ãre uddar goro, kiyollahoile ãi hitare ḍorai, ar zodi hite aiyore ãre edde ma-fuwaindore marifele.Please deliver me from the hand of my brother Esau, for I am afraid that he may come and attack me and the mothers and children with me.

12Ar tũi to hoila, 'ãi tore balai goriyum edde tor bongšore doriyar balur renir ḍoilla beši goriyum, zin goni šeš gora no zaibo.'"But You have said, ‘I will surely make you prosper, and I will make your offspring like the sand of the sea, too numerous to count.’”

13Toi Yakub he raitta heṛe rait haṛaiye, ar hibattu aššilde hinottu ek hadiya hisabe hibar bái Išolla loiye:Jacob spent the night there, and from what he had brought with him, he selected a gift for his brother Esau:

14Dui šot sai sool edde kuriwa faṛa sool, dui šot miyala berasool edde kuriwa modda berasool,200 female goats, 20 male goats, 200 ewes, 20 rams,

15so šoho dud dede hendilla tirišwa ũṭ, sališwa gai goru edde došwa bolod goru, ar kuriwa gadi edde došwa modda gada.30 milk camels with their young, 40 cows, 10 bulls, 20 female donkeys, and 10 male donkeys.

16Bade hibaye hinore ek ekzon gulam okkolor hatot diye, toi hibar gulam okkolore hodde, "Tũwara ãr agottu farai zogoi, ar zãkor maze maze hoddur dur zaga farot raikko."He entrusted them to his servants in separate herds and told them, “Go on ahead of me, and keep some distance between the herds.”

17Bade hibaye foila zãkor hitare hokum diye: "Ãr bái Iš zodi tui loi deha o, edde fusar gore, 'Tui har gulam, hoṛe zodde, edde tor sarme asede in har?'He instructed the one in the lead, “When my brother Esau meets you and asks, ‘To whom do you belong, where are you going, and whose animals are these before you?’

18Toi tui hoibi, 'In tũwar gulam Yakubor, inore ek hadiya hisabe ãr malik Išor hãse faṭa oiye, so, hiba o ãrar fisottu ase.'"then you are to say, ‘They belong to your servant Jacob. They are a gift, sent to my lord Esau. And behold, Jacob is behind us.’”

19Hibaye, dusora, tisera, edde aro oinno zara zãk loi zat aššil, hitara beggunore o hokum diye: "Iš loi deha oile tũwara o ekkui bafe ei hota hoiba.He also instructed the second, the third, and all those following behind the herds: “When you meet Esau, you are to say the same thing to him.

20Tũwara aro hoiba, 'So, tũwar gulam Yakub ãrar fisottu ase.'" Haron hibaye hodde, "Ãi ãr age ei hadiya okkol defeṛaiyore hibare šanto goijjium; toi bade ãi hibar siyara saiyum, oitofare hibaye ãre gosibo."You are also to say, ‘Look, your servant Jacob is right behind us.’” For he thought, “I will appease Esau with the gift that is going before me. After that I can face him, and perhaps he will accept me.”

21Toi hadiyagun hibar sarmottu fargora oil, kintu hiba nize he raitta dolor fũwati rait haṛaiye.So Jacob’s gifts went on before him, while he spent the night in the camp.

22Bade hiba he raitta uiṭṭe edde hibar dui bou, dui bandi edde hibar egaro futore loiye edde Jabbok gáṭ bai faraiye.During the night Jacob got up and took his two wives, his two maidservants, and his eleven sons, and crossed the ford of the Jabbok.

23Hibaye hitarare hal fargorabai bade hibaye hibattu aššilde hár kissure far gorabaiye.He took them and sent them across the stream, along with all his possessions.

24Toi Yakub heṛe eka roiye, edde ek zone hiba loi binna dol fohor ofan foijjonto kutsi doijje.So Jacob was left all alone, and there a man wrestled with him until daybreak.

25Kintu Yakubore hõṛai no farede dekiyore hibaye Yakubor kiyailor sunuti sai hamela goijje, ar henot hibar loi kutsi dorat Yakubor kiyailor sunuti zurattu niyoli giyegoi.When the man saw that he could not overpower Jacob, he struck the socket of Jacob’s hip and dislocated it as they wrestled.

26Toi hibaye hodde, "Binna dol fohor oiye, ebar ãre eride." Kintu Yakube hodde, "Ãre rahamot no goro foijjonto ãi tũware zaito no diyum."Then the man said, “Let me go, for it is daybreak.” But Jacob replied, “I will not let you go unless you bless me.”

27Toi hibaye hodde, "Tor nam ki?" Hibaye hodde "Yakub."“What is your name?” the man asked. “Jacob,” he replied.

28Toi hibaye hodde, "Tore ar Yakub ḍaka no oibo, Israil ḍaka oibo, kiyollahoile tui Allah edde manuš loi zuddo goijjos edde tui zittos."Then the man said, “Your name will no longer be Jacob, but Israel, because you have struggled with God and with men, and you have prevailed.”

29Hetunot Yakube fusar goredde, "Meherbani gori, õnor namman ho." Kintu hibaye hodde, "Ãr nam kiyolla fusar goror?" Toi hibaye hibare rahamot goijje.And Jacob requested, “Please tell me your name.” But he replied, “Why do you ask my name?” Then he blessed Jacob there.

30Toi Yakube he zagar nam raikke Peniel, edde hodde, "Kiyollahoile ãi Allare sarma sarmi oi dekilam, tarfore o ãr foran baisse."So Jacob named the place Peniel, saying, “Indeed, I have seen God face to face, and yet my life was spared.”

31Bade hiba Peniel farai giyegoide šomot beil uiṭṭe edde hibar kiyailor sunutilla buli lenga šuru goijje.The sun rose above him as he passed by Penuel, and he was limping because of his hip.

32Etolla iyan ehono foijjonto endilla ze Israili okkole kiyailor sunutir uwore ze gusto ase hin no há, kiyollahoile Yakubor kiyailor sunutir gusto sai hamela gora oil.Therefore to this day the Israelites do not eat the tendon attached to the socket of the hip, because the socket of Jacob’s hip was struck near that tendon.
