Genesis 33 (WLO)

1Wakutuu Yakub apatinda potontona tee atiliki, atiumbamo Esau aumba apoose 400 mia manga umane. Kasiimpomo abagemea manga anaana i tanga-tangana Lea, Rahel, tee i rua mia bhatua bhawine manga.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.

2Incia adhikamea manga bhatua bhawine sumai tee manga anana i aroa, kasiimpo Lea tee manga anana, tee sapadhana incia sumai Rahel tee Yusuf i taliku mpuu.He put the maidservants and their children in front, Leah and her children next, and Rachel and Joseph at the rear.

3Yakub samia alingka i aroana manga tee asuju ahoromati pitu mpearo, sampe incia apekakasu i akana.But Jacob himself went on ahead and bowed to the ground seven times as he approached his brother.

4Maka Esau abuntuli apokawaakamo Yakub, asakumea, asakulaka bhorokona tee aikia, kasiimpo apotangisimo manga incia.Esau, however, ran to him and embraced him, threw his arms around his neck, and kissed him. And they both wept.

5Wakutuuna Esau apatinda potontona, akamatamea manga bhawine tee manga anana i aroana, aabhamo incia, "Incema buaka manga mia mopoosena tee ingkoo sii?" Alawani Yakub, "Manga anana mopadhana idhawuakana Aulataʼala i bhatuamu sii."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.”

6Kasiimpomo manga bhatua bhawine sumai tee manga anana apasari tee asuju ahoromati.Then the maidservants and their children approached and bowed down.

7Lea tee manga anana uka apekakasumo, kasiimpo asuju ahoromati. Sapadhana sumai apekakasumo uka Yusuf tee Rahel, kasiimpomo asuju ahoromati uka.Leah and her children also approached and bowed down, and then Joseph and Rachel approached and bowed down.

8Aabhamo Esau, "Opea haejatimu tee bhari-bharia gulumana kadhambaaka ipokawaakaku i saao?" Alawanimo Yakub, "Mamudhaakana opu umaasiaka bhatuamu."“What do you mean by sending this whole company to meet me?” asked Esau. “To find favor in your sight, my lord,” Jacob answered.

9Maka Esau apogaumo, "Andiku, iaku kukokadhaangiamo. Taroakamo opea modhaangiana i karomu sadhaadhaana amembali pewauamu."“I already have plenty, my brother,” Esau replied. “Keep what belongs to you.”

10Apogaumo Yakub, "Kuemani bholi mboo sumai. Ande opu satotuuna umaasiaka bhatuamu sii, tulungi tarimaia harataa idhawuakaku minaaka i limana bhatuamu sii. Satotuuna to iaku, kukamata rouna opu mboo mpuu kukamata rouna Aulataʼala. Opu upepagoakumo malape.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.

11Kuemani tarimaia kadhawuna ibhawaakana i opu sii, roonamo Aulataʼala amalape incana i bhatuamu sabutuna iaku uka kukokadhaangia bhari-bharia sii." Yakub aemani mpuu, sampe Esau uka aunda atarimaia.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.

12Pogaumo Esau, "Maimo ingkita tabhose tapalausaka lingkaata; bhekulingka kupoose tee ingkoo."Then Esau said, “Let us be on our way, and I will go ahead of you.”

13Maka Yakub apogau i incia, "Opuku umataua, manga anaana sii dhaangia amalute, tee uka manga gulumana bhembe dumba tee sapi dhaangiapo apadudua. Ande apasurua alingka tangkanamo saeomea, sumaimo bhari-bharia bhembe dumba sumai bheamate.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.

14Jadi, taroakamo opuku ulingka uporikanaaka bhatuamu sii. Bhekujulu tee kupengkaanaka mboomo bhengkalana kadhambaaka modhaangiana i aroana bhatuamu apoose tee bhengkalana manga anaana, sampe kukawa i opuku i Seir."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.”

15Apogaumo Esau, "Ande mboo itu, taroakamo kubholiaka i ingkoo pia-pia mia minaaka i manga mia mopoosena tee iaku." Maka alawanimo Yakub, "Tarima kaasi, inda afaraluu opuku. Kumasanaa mpuu roonamo umaasiakaaku. Sumaimo podhomo itu."“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.”

16Jadi ambulimo Esau i eo incia sumai uka aporope i Seir.So that day Esau started on his way back to Seir,

17Maka Yakub abhose i Sukot. Iwe sumai incia apakaromo saangu bhanua to karona tee wale-wale to kadhambaakana. Siitumo sababuna tampa incia sumai asarongiakea Sukot.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.

18I nuncana lingkaana minaaka i Mesopotamia, Yakub akawamo tee salaamati i Sikhem, i Tana Kanaan, kasiimpo incia apakaro kemana i saripina kota sumai.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.

19Kasiimpomo aalimo satidha tana, tampana incia apakaro kemana tee haragaana 100 tibha doi pera minaaka i siwuluna Hemor, o amana Sikhem.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.

20Incia apakaromo saangu tampa tunuana kurubani tee asarongiakamea, "El Elohe Israel," mokomaʼanana "Aulataʼala dhaangiamo Aulataʼalana Israel."There he set up an altar and called it El-Elohe-Israel.
