1 Y acquubna jidkiisii buu iska qaaday, malaa'igihii Ilaah baana ka hor yimid.

Then Jacob went on his way, and God’s angels met him.

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

When Jacob saw them, he said, This is God’s army! So he named that place Mahanaim.

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

And Jacob sent messengers before him to Esau his brother in the land of Seir, the country of Edom.

4 W uuna 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,

And he commanded them, Say this to my lord Esau: Your servant Jacob says this: I have been living temporarily with Laban and have stayed there till now.

5 o o 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.

And I have oxen, donkeys, flocks, menservants, and women servants; and I have sent to tell my lord, that I may find mercy and kindness in your sight.

6 K uwii 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.

And the messengers returned to Jacob, saying, We came to your brother Esau; and now he is to meet you, and four hundred men are with him.

7 M arkaasaa 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,

Then Jacob was greatly afraid and distressed; and he divided the people who were with him, and the flocks and herds and camels, into two groups,

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

Thinking, If Esau comes to the one group and smites it, then the other group which is left will escape.

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

Jacob said, O God of my father Abraham and God of my father Isaac, the Lord Who said to me, Return to your country and to your people and I will do you good,

10 M a 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.

I am not worthy of the least of all the mercy and loving-kindness and all the faithfulness which You have shown to Your servant, for with my staff I passed over this Jordan, and now I have become two companies.

11 W aan 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.

Deliver me, I pray You, from the hand of my brother, from the hand of Esau; for I fear him, lest he come and smite, the mothers with the children.

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

And You said, I will surely do you good and make your descendants as the sand of the sea, which cannot be numbered for multitude.

13 H abeenkaasna halkaas buu ku baryay, oo walaalkiis Ceesaw ayuu hadiyad uga qaaday wixii uu lahaa,

And Jacob lodged there that night and took from what he had with him as a present for his brother Esau:

14 t aas oo ah laba tiro oo riyo ah, iyo labaatan orgi, iyo laba tiro oo sabeeno ah iyo labaatan wan,

Two hundred she-goats, 20 he-goats, 200 ewes, 20 rams,

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

Thirty milk camels with their colts, 40 cows, 10 bulls, 20 she-donkeys, and 10 colts.

16 M arkaasuu 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.

And he put them into the charge of his servants, every drove by itself, and said to his servants, Pass over before me and put a space between drove and drove.

17 O o 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?

And he commanded the first, When Esau my brother meets you and asks to whom you belong, where you are going, and whose are the animals before you,

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

Then you shall say, They are your servant Jacob’s; it is a present sent to my lord Esau; and moreover, he is behind us.

19 S idaasuu 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;

And so he commanded the second and the third and all that followed the droves, saying, This is what you are to say to Esau when you meet him.

20 o o 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.

And say, Moreover, your servant Jacob is behind us. For he said, I will appease him with the present that goes before me, and afterward I will see his face; perhaps he will accept me.

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

So the present went on before him, and he himself lodged that night in the camp.

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

But he rose up that night and took his two wives, his two women servants, and his eleven sons and passed over the ford Jabbok.

23 W uuna kaxeeyey iyagii oo wuxuu u diray durdurka shishadiisa, wixii uu haystayna wuu gudbiyey.

And he took them and sent them across the brook; also he sent over all that he had.

24 M arkaasuu Yacquub keligiis hadhay, nin baana la legdamayay isaga ilaa markii waagu beryayay.

And Jacob was left alone, and a Man wrestled with him until daybreak.

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

And when '> Man] saw that He did not prevail against, He touched the hollow of his thigh; and Jacob’s thigh was put out of joint as he wrestled with Him.

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

Then He said, Let Me go, for day is breaking. But said, I will not let You go unless You declare a blessing upon me.

27 M ar kaasuu ku yidhi isagii, Magacaa? Isna wuxuu yidhi, Yacquub.

asked him, What is your name? And he said, Jacob!

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

And He said, Your name shall be called no more Jacob, but Israel; for you have contended and have power with God and with men and have prevailed.

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

Then Jacob asked Him, Tell me, I pray You, what is Your name? But He said, Why is it that you ask My name? And a blessing on there.

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

And Jacob called the name of the place Peniel, saying, For I have seen God face to face, and my life is spared and not snatched away.

31 Q orraxdiina waxay soo baxday markuu Fenuu'eel dhaaftay, isna bowdadiisii buu ka dhutinayay.

And as he passed Penuel, the sun rose upon him, and he was limping because of his thigh.

32 S idaas 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.

That is why to this day the Israelites do not eat the sinew of the hip which is on the hollow of the thigh, because touched the hollow of Jacob’s thigh on the sinew of the hip.
