创世记 32
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
Berean Standard Bible
1雅各 仍旧行路， 神的使者遇见他。
1Jacob also went on his way, and the angels of God met him.
2雅各 看见他们就说：「这是 神的军兵」，于是给那地方起名叫 玛哈念 。
2When Jacob saw them, he said, “This is the camp of God.” So he named that place Mahanaim.
3雅各 打发人先往 西珥 地去，就是 以东 地，见他哥哥 以扫 ，
3Jacob sent messengers ahead of him to his brother Esau in the land of Seir, the country of Edom.
4吩咐他们说：「你们对我主 以扫 说：『你的仆人 雅各 这样说：我在 拉班 那里寄居，直到如今。
4He instructed them, “You are to say to my master Esau, ‘Your servant Jacob says: I have been staying with Laban and have remained there until now.
5我有牛、驴、羊群、仆婢，现在打发人来报告我主，为要在你眼前蒙恩。』」
5I have oxen, donkeys, flocks, menservants, and maidservants. I have sent this message to inform my master, so that I may find favor in your sight.’”
6所打发的人回到 雅各 那里，说：「我们到了你哥哥 以扫 那里，他带着四百人，正迎着你来。」
6When the messengers returned to Jacob, they said, “We went to your brother Esau, and now he is coming to meet you—he and four hundred men with him.”
7雅各 就甚惧怕，而且愁烦，便把那与他同在的人口和羊群、牛群、骆驼分做两队，
7In great fear and distress, Jacob divided his people into two camps, as well as the flocks and herds and camels.
8说：「 以扫 若来击杀这一队，剩下的那一队还可以逃避。」
8He thought, “If Esau comes and attacks one camp, then the other camp can escape.”
9雅各 说：「耶和华—我祖 亚伯拉罕 的 神，我父亲 以撒 的 神啊，你曾对我说：『回你本地本族去，我要厚待你。』
9Then Jacob declared, “O God of my father Abraham, God of my father Isaac, the LORD who told me, ‘Go back to your country and to your kindred, and I will make you prosper,’
10你向仆人所施的一切慈爱和诚实，我一点也不配得；我先前只拿着我的杖过这 约旦河 ，如今我却成了两队了。
10I am unworthy of all the kindness and faithfulness You have shown Your servant. Indeed, with only my staff I came across the Jordan, but now I have become two camps.
11求你救我脱离我哥哥 以扫 的手；因为我怕他来杀我，连妻子带儿女一同杀了。
11Please deliver me from the hand of my brother Esau, for I am afraid that he may come and attack me and the mothers and children with me.
12你曾说：『我必定厚待你，使你的后裔如同海边的沙，多得不可胜数。』」
12But You have said, ‘I will surely make you prosper, and I will make your offspring like the sand of the sea, too numerous to count.’”
13当夜， 雅各 在那里住宿，就从他所有的物中拿礼物要送给他哥哥 以扫 ：
13Jacob spent the night there, and from what he had brought with him, he selected a gift for his brother Esau:
14母山羊二百只，公山羊二十只，母绵羊二百只，公绵羊二十只，
14200 female goats, 20 male goats, 200 ewes, 20 rams,
15奶崽子的骆驼三十只—各带着崽子，母牛四十只，公牛十只，母驴二十匹，驴驹十匹；
1530 milk camels with their young, 40 cows, 10 bulls, 20 female donkeys, and 10 male donkeys.
16每样各分一群，交在仆人手下，就对仆人说：「你们要在我前头过去，使群群相离，有空闲的地方」；
16He entrusted them to his servants in separate herds and told them, “Go on ahead of me, and keep some distance between the herds.”
17又吩咐尽先走的说：「我哥哥 以扫 遇见你的时候，问你说：『你是哪家的人？要往哪里去？你前头这些是谁的？』
17He instructed the one in the lead, “When my brother Esau meets you and asks, ‘To whom do you belong, where are you going, and whose animals are these before you?’
18你就说：『是你仆人 雅各 的，是送给我主 以扫 的礼物；他自己也在我们后边。』」
18then you are to say, ‘They belong to your servant Jacob. They are a gift, sent to my lord Esau. And behold, Jacob is behind us.’”
19又吩咐第二、第三，和一切赶群畜的人说：「你们遇见 以扫 的时候也要这样对他说；
19He also instructed the second, the third, and all those following behind the herds: “When you meet Esau, you are to say the same thing to him.
20并且你们要说：『你仆人 雅各 在我们后边。』」因 雅各 心里说：「我借着在我前头去的礼物解他的恨，然后再见他的面，或者他容纳我。」
20You are also to say, ‘Look, your servant Jacob is right behind us.’” For he thought, “I will appease Esau with the gift that is going before me. After that I can face him, and perhaps he will accept me.”
21于是礼物先过去了；那夜， 雅各 在队中住宿。
21So Jacob’s gifts went on before him, while he spent the night in the camp.
22他夜间起来，带着两个妻子，两个使女，并十一个儿子，都过了 雅博 渡口，
22During the night Jacob got up and took his two wives, his two maidservants, and his eleven sons, and crossed the ford of the Jabbok.
23先打发他们过河，又打发所有的都过去，
23He took them and sent them across the stream, along with all his possessions.
24只剩下 雅各 一人。有一个人来和他摔跤，直到黎明。
24So Jacob was left all alone, and there a man wrestled with him until daybreak.
25那人见自己胜不过他，就将他的大腿窝摸了一把， 雅各 的大腿窝正在摔跤的时候就扭了。
25When the man saw that he could not overpower Jacob, he struck the socket of Jacob’s hip and dislocated it as they wrestled.
26那人说：「天黎明了，容我去吧！」 雅各 说：「你不给我祝福，我就不容你去。」
26Then the man said, “Let me go, for it is daybreak.” But Jacob replied, “I will not let you go unless you bless me.”
27那人说：「你名叫什么？」他说：「我名叫 雅各 。」
27“What is your name?” the man asked. “Jacob,” he replied.
28那人说：「你的名不要再叫 雅各 ，要叫 以色列 ；因为你与 神与人较力，都得了胜。」
28Then the man said, “Your name will no longer be Jacob, but Israel, because you have struggled with God and with men, and you have prevailed.”
29雅各 问他说：「请将你的名告诉我。」那人说：「何必问我的名？」于是在那里给 雅各 祝福。
29And Jacob requested, “Please tell me your name.” But he replied, “Why do you ask my name?” Then he blessed Jacob there.
30雅各 便给那地方起名叫 毗努伊勒 ，意思说：「我面对面见了 神，我的性命仍得保全。」
30So Jacob named the place Peniel, saying, “Indeed, I have seen God face to face, and yet my life was spared.”
31日头刚出来的时候， 雅各 经过 毗努伊勒 ，他的大腿就瘸了。
31The sun rose above him as he passed by Penuel, and he was limping because of his hip.
32故此， 以色列 人不吃大腿窝的筋，直到今日，因为那人摸了 雅各 大腿窝的筋。
32Therefore to this day the Israelites do not eat the tendon which is at the socket of the hip, because the socket of Jacob’s hip was struck near that tendon.
