Genesis 33 (RHG)

1Bade Yakube suk tuli saiye, ar so, Iš aiyer edde hibar fũwati sair šot manuš ase; hetunot hibaye fuwaingunore Leah, Rahela edde dui bandir hãse bag gori diye.Now Jacob looked up and saw Esau coming toward him with four hundred men. So he divided the children among Leah, Rachel, and the two maidservants.

2Ar hibaye age bandi edde hitarar fuwaindore agottu diye, tarfore fisottu Leah edde hibar fuwaindore, bade šešottu Rahela edde Yusufore diye.He put the maidservants and their children in front, Leah and her children next, and Rachel and Joseph at the rear.

3Ar hiba nize hitarar agottu giye edde meṛit hãt bar mata niyuraiyore ijjot gori gori hibar báiyor hãse hazir oiye.But Jacob himself went on ahead and bowed to the ground seven times as he approached his brother.

4Toi Iše Yakubor loi dola oibolla dũri aišše edde Yakub loi ãzaãzi goijje, edde golat dori suma diye, ar hitara hainde.Esau, however, ran to him and embraced him, threw his arms around his neck, and kissed him. And they both wept.

5Bade Iše suk tuli mayafuwain okkol edde fuwain okkolore deki fusar goredde, tor fũwati itara hontara? Yakube hodde, "Allar rahamote õnor gulamore ei futziyain okkol diye."When Esau looked up and saw the women and children, he asked, “Who are these with you?” Jacob answered, “These are the children God has graciously given your servant.”

6Toi bandi okkol edde hitarar fuwain okkole sarme zaiyore Išore mata niyuraiyore ijjot goijje.Then the maidservants and their children approached and bowed down.

7Bade Leah edde hibar fuwain okkole sarme aišše edde mata niyuraiyore ijjot goijje. Ar šešottu Yusufe edde Rahela sarme giye, ar hitara o mata niyuraiyore ijjot goijje.Leah and her children also approached and bowed down, and then Joseph and Rachel approached and bowed down.

8Toi Iše hodde, "Ãi ze dol okkol dekilam in kiyolla?" Hibaye hodde, "In ãr malikor nozorottu doya faibolla."“What do you mean by sending this whole company to meet me?” asked Esau. “To find favor in your sight, my lord,” Jacob answered.

9Kintu Iše hodde, "Ãttu beši ase, oh bái. Tottu zin ase hin tottu takok."“I already have plenty, my brother,” Esau replied. “Keep what belongs to you.”

10Yakube hodde, "No, ãi foriyad gori hoir, zodi ãi tũwar nozorottu doya faiyide o, toile tũi ãr ei hadiya goso, kiyollahoile ãi tũwar muk sa ãlla hiyan ãi Allar siyara saiyifan, ze tũi ãre kuši mone goisso.But Jacob insisted, “No, please! If I have found favor in your sight, then receive this gift from my hand. For indeed, I have seen your face, and it is like seeing the face of God, since you have received me favorably.

11Meherbani gori tũwar hãse ana oiyede ei hadiyagun goso, kiyollahoile Allaye ãre rahamot goijje, edde ãttu hár kissu ase." Ar Yakube beši foriyad goijje buli Iše hin goisse.Please accept my gift that was brought to you, because God has been gracious to me and I have all I need.” So Jacob pressed him until he accepted.

12Toi Iše hodde, "Aio, ãra baisa di edde zai, ar ãi tor agottu zaiyum."Then Esau said, “Let us be on our way, and I will go ahead of you.”

13Yakube hodde, "Ãr malike to zano, ei fuwain okkol aizo gura, ar dudor sai sool edde faṛi berasool edde goru in okkololla o ãttu bafa foribo, ekdin o zodi itarare zoltigori loigile zanuwaror zãk okkol beggun morizaiboi.But Jacob replied, “My lord knows that the children are frail, and I must care for sheep and cattle that are nursing their young. If they are driven hard for even a day, all the animals will die.

14Hetolla foriyad gorir, oh ãr malik, tũi tũwar gulam okkolore loi age zogoi, ar ãi ãr malikor hãse Seirot no fõsigoi foijjonto sarmor zanuwaror zãk edde fuwain okkolor ãṛar goti buzi aste aste aiššum."Please let my lord go ahead of his servant. I will continue on slowly, at a comfortable pace for the livestock and children, until I come to my lord at Seir.”

15Hetunot Iše hodde, "Toile ãr fũwati asede hentu manuš hodunore tor hãse raki zaito de." Yakube hodde, "Hin kiyolla? Ãr malikor hãsottu ãi doya faiyi iyan ãlla beši."“Let me leave some of my people with you,” Esau said. But Jacob replied, “Why do that? Let me find favor in the sight of my lord.”

16Toi Iše he din Seiror mikka hibar baisar uzu firi giyegoi.So that day Esau started on his way back to Seir,

17Ar Yakube baisa di Sukkotot zai nizolla gór edde zanuwar okkololla ho ekkan ura bainde, hetolla he zagare Sukkot ḍaka oiye.but Jacob went on to Succoth, where he built a house for himself and shelters for his livestock; that is why the place was called Succoth.

18Ar Yakub Paddan Aramottu niyoli aiyore hiba aramor sãte Kenanor Šekim šohorot aišše edde šohoror barkule ṭambu maijje.After Jacob had come from Paddan-aram, he arrived safely at the city of Shechem in the land of Canaan, and he camped just outside the city.

19Bade hibaye ze zagat ṭambu gãijje hiyanore ekšot rufar foiša diyore Šekimor baf, Hamoror futaindottu kini loiye.And the plot of ground where he pitched his tent, he purchased from the sons of Hamor, Shechem’s father, for a hundred pieces of silver.

20Heṛe hibaye ekkan kurbangah tuille edde hiyanore El-Elohe Israil nam diye.There he set up an altar and called it El-Elohe-Israel.
