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

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.

When he saw them, Jacob said, “This is God’s army.” 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.

Jacob sent messengers in front of him to Esau, his brother, to the land of Seir, the field 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,

He commanded them, saying, “This is what you shall tell my lord, Esau: ‘This is what your servant, Jacob, says. I have lived as a foreigner with Laban, and stayed 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.

I have cattle, donkeys, flocks, male servants, and female servants. I have sent to tell my lord, that I may find favor 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.

The messengers returned to Jacob, saying, “We came to your brother Esau. Not only that, but he comes to meet you, 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. He divided the people who were with him, and the flocks, and the herds, and the camels, into two companies;

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

and he said, “If Esau comes to the one company, and strikes it, then the company 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, “God of my father Abraham, and God of my father Isaac, Yahweh, who said to me, ‘Return to your country, and to your relatives, 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 loving kindnesses, and of all the truth, which you have shown to your servant; for with just my staff I crossed 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.

Please deliver me from the hand of my brother, from the hand of Esau: for I fear him, lest he come and strike me, and 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.

You said, ‘I will surely do you good, and make your offspring as the sand of the sea, which can’t be numbered because there are so many.’”

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

He stayed there that night, and took from that which he had with him, a present 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 female goats and twenty male 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 milk camels and their colts, forty cows, ten bulls, twenty female donkeys and ten foals.

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.

He delivered them into the hands of his servants, every herd by itself, and said to his servants, “Pass over before me, and put a space between herd and herd.”

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?

He commanded the foremost, saying, “When Esau, my brother, meets you, and asks you, saying, ‘Whose are you? Where are you going? Whose are these 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. 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;

He commanded also the second, and the third, and all that followed the herds, saying, “This is how you shall speak to Esau, when you 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.

You shall say, ‘Not only that, but behold, 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 passed over before him, and he himself stayed 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.

He rose up that night, and took his two wives, and his two servants, and his eleven sons, and crossed over the ford of the Jabbok.

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

He took them, and sent them over the stream, and sent over that which he had.

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

Jacob was left alone, and wrestled with a man there until the breaking of the day.

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

When he saw that he didn’t prevail against him, he touched the hollow of his thigh, and the hollow of Jacob’s thigh was strained, as he wrestled.

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

The man said, “Let me go, for the day breaks.” Jacob said, “I won’t let you go, unless you bless me.”

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

He said to him, “What is your name?” 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.

He said, “Your name will no longer be called Jacob, but Israel; for you have fought 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.

Jacob asked him, “Please tell me your name.” He said, “Why is it that you ask what my name is?” 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.

Jacob called the name of the place Peniel: for, he said, “I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved.”

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

The sun rose on him as he passed over Peniel, and he limped 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.

Therefore the children of Israel don’t eat the sinew of the hip, which is on the hollow of the thigh, to this day, because he touched the hollow of Jacob’s thigh in the sinew of the hip.
