1 J acob went on his way, and God’s angels met him.

Yacquubna jidkiisii buu iska qaaday, malaa'igihii Ilaah baana ka hor yimid.

2 W hen Jacob saw them, he said, “This is God’s camp!” So he gave the place the name Mahanaim.

Yacquubna markuu iyagii arkay wuxuu yidhi, Kanu waa ciidankii Ilaah. Meeshaas magaceediina wuxuu u bixiyey Maxanayim.

3 J acob sent men to carry news before him to his brother Esau in the land of Seir, the country of Edom.

Yacquubna wuxuu iska hor mariyey kuwo farriin wada oo wuxuu u diray walaalkiis Ceesaw oo degganaa dalkii Seciir oo ahaa duurkii Edom.

4 H e told them, “Say this to my lord Esau: ‘Your servant Jacob says, “I have been living with Laban, and stayed there until now.

Wuuna amray, oo wuxuu iyagii ku yidhi, Waxaad ku tidhaahdaan sayidkayga Ceesaw, Addoonkaagii Yacquub wuxuu yidhi, Waxaan qariib ahaan ula degay Laabaan, oo ilaa haatanna waan la joogay,

5 I have cattle and donkeys and flocks and men and women servants. And I have sent to tell my lord, hoping to find favor in your eyes.’”

oo waxaan haystaa dibiyo, iyo dameerro, iyo adhi, iyo niman addoommo ah iyo naago addoommo ah; oo waxaan kuugu soo cid diray inaan kuu sheego, sayidkaygiiyow, inaad raalli iga noqotid.

6 T he men that carried the news returned to Jacob and said, “We came to your brother Esau. He is coming to meet you, and four hundred men are with him.”

Kuwii farriinta wadayna Yacquub bay ku soo noqdeen, oo waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Waannu gaadhnay walaalkaa Ceesaw, oo weliba wuu soo socdaa inuu kaa hor yimaado isagoo wata afar boqol oo nin.

7 T hen Jacob was afraid and troubled. And he divided the people who were with him, and the flocks and cattle and camels, into two groups.

Markaasaa Yacquub aad u cabsaday, cidhiidhi buuna galay; kolkaasuu kala qaybiyey dadkii la jiray, iyo adhigii, iyo lo'dii, iyo geelii, oo wuxuu ka dhigay laba kooxood,

8 F or he said, “If Esau comes to the one group and destroys it, then the other group will get away.”

oo wuxuu isyidhi, Ceesaw hadduu koox u yimaado oo uu laayo, dabadeed kooxda hadha ayaa baxsan doonta.

9 T hen Jacob said, “O God of my father Abraham and God of my father Isaac, O Lord, Who said to me, ‘Return to your country and to those of your family, and I will bring good to you.’

Yacquubna wuxuu yidhi, Awowgay Ibraahim Ilaahiisiiyow, Aabbahay Isxaaq Ilaahiisiiyow, Ku noqo dalkaagii, iyo xigaalkaagii, oo anna wanaag baan kuu samayn doonaa, Rabbigii igu yidhiyow:

10 I have not earned any of the loving-kindness and faith which You have shown to your servant. For I had crossed this Jordan with only my walking stick. And now I have become two large groups.

Ma aan istaahilo waxa ugu wada yar ee ka mid ah naxariistaada iyo daacadnimadaada ee aad addoonkaaga tustay, waayo, ushaydaan kaga soo gudbay webigan Urdun, haatanna waxaan noqday laba kooxood.

11 S ave me, I pray, from the hand of my brother, from the power of Esau. For I am afraid of him. I am afraid he will come and kill us all, the mothers with the children.

Waan ku baryayaaye, Iga samatabbixi gacanta walaalkay ee ah gacanta Ceesaw; waayo, isagaan ka baqayaa waaba intaasoo uu yimaadaa oo dilaa aniga iyo hooyooyinka iyo carruurta la socotaba.

12 B ut You said, ‘I will bring good to you. I will make your children like the sand of the sea. There will be too many to number.’”

Waxaad igu tidhi, Hubaal wanaag baan kuu samayn doonaa, farcankaagana waxaan ka dhigi doonaa sida cammuudda badda, taas oo aan la tirin karin farabadnaan aawadeed.

13 S o Jacob stayed there that night. Then he chose a gift from what he had for his brother Esau:

Habeenkaasna halkaas buu ku baryay, oo walaalkiis Ceesaw ayuu hadiyad uga qaaday wixii uu lahaa,

14 T wo hundred female goats, twenty male goats, two hundred female sheep, twenty rams,

taas oo ah laba tiro oo riyo ah, iyo labaatan orgi, iyo laba tiro oo sabeeno ah iyo labaatan wan,

15 t hirty milk camels and their young ones, forty cows, ten bulls, twenty female donkeys and ten male donkeys.

iyo soddon halaad oo irmaan iyo nirgahoodii, iyo afartan sac iyo toban dibi, iyo labaatan dameerood iyo toban qayl.

16 H e put them into the care of his servants, every group of animals by itself. Then he said to his servants, “Go in front of me. And keep the groups of animals apart.”

Markaasuu xoolihii u dhiibay gacantii addoommadiisa, iyadoo goosan waluba goonidiisa yahay; oo wuxuu addoommadiisii ku yidhi, Iga sii hor gudba, xoolahana goosan waluba goosanka kale cabbaar ha ka dambeeyo.

17 H e told the one in front, “When my brother Esau meets you and asks, ‘To whom do you belong, and where are you going, and who owns these animals in front of you?’

Oo kii ugu horreeyey ayuu amray oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Markii walaalkay Ceesaw kaa hor yimaado, oo ku weyddiiyo, isagoo ku leh, Yaa ku leh? Oo xaggee baad ku socotaa? Kuwan kaa horreeyana yaa leh?

18 t hen you say, ‘These belong to your servant Jacob. It is a gift sent to my lord Esau. And he is coming behind us.’”

waxaad ku tidhaahdaa, Waxaa leh addoonkaagii Yacquub; oo waa hadiyad loo soo diray sayidkayga Ceesaw; oo isagiina wuu naga dambeeyaa.

19 H e also told the second and the third and all those who followed the animals, “This is what you are to say to Esau when you meet him.

Sidaasuu ku amray kii labaad, iyo kii saddexaad, iyo kuwii goosannada daba socday oo dhan, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Sidaas waa inaad ula hadashaan Ceesaw markaad aragtaan;

20 A nd be sure to say, ‘Your servant Jacob is coming behind us.’” For he said, “I will take away his anger with the gift that goes in front of me. Then when I meet him, he might receive me.”

oo waxaad ku tidhaahdaan, Weliba addoonkaagii Yacquub waa naga dambeeyaa. Oo wuxuu yidhi, Hadiyadda iga horraysa ayaan ku cadho tirayaa isaga, dabadeedna wejigiisaan arki doonaa; oo mindhaa wuu i aqbali doonaa.

21 S o the gift went in front of him, while he stayed that night in the tent. Jacob’s Name Is Changed to Israel

Sidaas daraaddeed hadiyaddii waa ka sii hor gudubtay, isna habeenkaas geeddigii buu ku dhex baryay. Legdankii Yacquub

22 B ut he got up that same night and crossed the Jabbok River, with his two wives, the two women who served him, and his eleven children.

Kolkaasuu kacay habeenkaas, oo wuxuu kaxaystay labadiisii naagood, iyo labadiisii addoommood, iyo koob iyo tobankiisi carruurta ahayd, oo wuxuu ka gudbiyey tog Yabboq marinkiisii.

23 H e took them and sent them to the other side of the river with all that he had.

Wuuna kaxeeyey iyagii oo wuxuu u diray durdurka shishadiisa, wixii uu haystayna wuu gudbiyey.

24 T hen Jacob was left alone. And a man fought with him until morning.

Markaasuu Yacquub keligiis hadhay, nin baana la legdamayay isaga ilaa markii waagu beryayay.

25 W hen the man saw that he was not winning he touched the joint of Jacob’s thigh. And Jacob’s thigh was put out of joint while he fought with him.

Oo markuu arkay inuusan ka adkaanayn ayuu taabtay godkii bowdadiisa, bowdadii Yacquubna way murkacatay, intuu la legdamayay isagii.

26 T he man said, “Let me go. For the morning has come.” But Jacob said, “I will not let you go unless you pray that good will come to me.”

Markaasuu yidhi, I sii daa, maxaa yeelay, waagii waa beryayaa. Isna wuxuu yidhi, Ku sii dayn maayo inaad i barakaysid mooyaane.

27 T he man asked him, “What is your name?” He said, “Jacob.”

Mar kaasuu ku yidhi isagii, Magacaa? Isna wuxuu yidhi, Yacquub.

28 A nd the man said, “Your name will no longer be Jacob, but Israel. For you have fought with God and with men, and have won.”

Markaasuu ku yidhi, Magacaaga hadda ka dib lama odhan doono Yacquub, waase Israa'iil; waayo, Ilaah iyo dadba waad la dagaallantay, waanad ka adkaatay.

29 T hen Jacob asked him, “Tell me, what is your name?” But he said, “Why is it that you ask my name?” And there he prayed that good would come to Jacob.

Yacquubna wuu weyddiiyey, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Waan ku baryayaaye, ii sheeg magacaaga. Oo wuxuu yidhi, Bal maxaad u haybsanaysaa magacayga? Halkaasuuna ku barakeeyey.

30 S o Jacob gave the place the name of Peniel. For he said, “I have seen God face to face, and yet I am still alive.”

Yacquubna meeshaas magaceedii wuxuu u bixiyey Fenii'eel; waayo, wuxuu yidhi, Ilaah fool ka fool baan u arkay, naftayduna way nabad gashay.

31 T he sun rose upon him as he passed through Peniel. It was hard to walk on his leg.

Qorraxdiina waxay soo baxday markuu Fenuu'eel dhaaftay, isna bowdadiisii buu ka dhutinayay.

32 S o to this day the sons of Israel do not eat the meat from inside the joint of the thigh, because he touched this part of the joint on Jacob’s leg.

Sidaas daraaddeed ilaa maantadan reer binu Israa'iil ma cunaan seedda misigta oo ku dul taal godka bowdada; maxaa yeelay, wuxuu taabtay godkii bowdadii Yacquub xagga seedda misigta.
