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

And Jacob went on his way; and the angels of God met him.

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

And when Jacob saw them he said, This is the camp of God. And he called the name of 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 his face to Esau his brother, into the land of Seir, the fields 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, saying, Thus shall ye speak to my lord, to Esau: Thy servant Jacob speaks thus—With Laban have I sojourned and tarried until 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, and asses, sheep, and bondmen, and bondwomen; and I have sent to tell my lord, that I may find favour in thine eyes.

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 thy brother, to Esau; and he also is coming to meet thee, and four hundred men 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 was distressed; and he divided the people that were with him, and the sheep and the cattle and the camels, into two troops.

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

And he said, If Esau come to the one troop and smite it, then the other troop which is left shall 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:

And Jacob said, God of my father Abraham, and God of my father Isaac, Jehovah, who saidst unto me: Return into thy country and to thy kindred, and I will do thee 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 too small for all the loving-kindness and all the faithfulness that thou hast shewn unto thy servant; for with my staff I passed over this Jordan, and now I am become two troops.

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 thee, from the hand of my brother, from the hand of Esau; for I fear him, lest he come and smite me, the mother 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 thou saidst, I will certainly deal well with thee, and make thy seed 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 he lodged there that night; and took of what came to his hand a gift for Esau his brother—

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, and twenty he-goats; two hundred ewes, and twenty rams;

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

thirty milch camels with their colts; forty kine, and ten bulls; twenty she-asses, and ten young asses.

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 delivered into the hand of his servants, every drove by itself; and he said to his servants, Go on 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 foremost, saying, When Esau my brother meets thee, and asks thee, saying, Whose art thou, and where goest thou, and whose are these before thee?

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

—then thou shalt say, Thy servant Jacob's: it is a gift sent to my lord, to Esau. And behold, he also 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 commanded he the second, and the third, and all that followed the droves, saying, According to this word shall ye speak to Esau when ye find 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, moreover, ye shall say, Behold, thy servant Jacob is behind us. For he said, I will propitiate him with the gift that goes before me, and afterwards 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

And the gift went over 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.

And he rose up that night, and took his two wives, and his two maidservants, and his eleven sons, and passed over the ford of the Jabbok;

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

and he took them and led them over the river, and led over what he had.

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

And Jacob remained alone; and a man wrestled with him until the rising of the dawn.

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

And when he saw that he did not prevail against him, he touched the joint of his thigh; and the joint of Jacob's thigh was dislocated 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.

And he said, Let me go, for the dawn ariseth. And he said, I will not let thee go except thou bless me.

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

And he said to him, What is thy 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, Thy name shall not henceforth be called Jacob, but Israel; for thou hast wrestled with God, and with men, and hast 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.

And Jacob asked and said, Tell, I pray thee, thy name. And he said, How is it that thou askest after my name? And he blessed him 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—For I have seen God face to face, and my life has been preserved.

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

And as he passed over Peniel, the sun rose upon him; and he limped upon his hip.

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.

Therefore the children of Israel do not eat of the sinew that is over the joint of the thigh, to this day; because he touched the joint of Jacob's thigh—the sinew.
