创世记 32
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)
1雅各 仍旧行路， 神的使者遇见他。
1Jacob also went on the journey he had begun: 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 。
2And when he saw them, he said: These are the camps of God, and he called the name of that place Mahanaim, that is, Camps.
3雅各 打发人先往 西珥 地去，就是 以东 地，见他哥哥 以扫 ，
3And he sent messengers before him to Esau his brother to the land of Seir to 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。
4And he commanded them, saying: Thus shall ye speak to my lord Esau: Thus saith thy brother Jacob: I have sojourned with Laban, and have been with him until this day.
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, and asses, and sheep, and menservants, and womenservants: and now I send a message to my lord, that I may find favour in thy 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。」
6And the messengers returned to Jacob, saying: We came to Esau thy brother, and behold he cometh with speed to meet thee with four hundred men.
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，
7Then Jacob was greatly afraid; and in his fear divided the people that was with him, and the flocks, and the sheep, and the oxen, and the camels, into two companies,
8说：「 以扫 若来击杀这一队，剩下的那一队还可以逃避。」
8Saying: If Esau come to one company and destroy it, the other company that is left shall 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。』
9And Jacob said: O God of my father Abraham, and God of my father Isaac, O Lord, who saidst to me: Return to thy land and to the place of thy birth, and I will do well for thee,
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 not worthy of the least of all thy mercies, and of thy truth which thou hast fulfilled to thy servant. With my staff I passed over this Jordan; and now I return with two companies.
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。
11Deliver me from the hand of my brother Esau, for I am greatly afraid of him: lest perhaps he come, and kill the mother with the children.
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。』」
12Thou didst say that thou wouldst do well by me, and multiply my seed like the sand of the sea, which cannot be numbered for multitude.
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 ：
13And when he had slept there that night, he set apart, of the things which he had, presents 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，
14Two hundred she goats, twenty he goats, two hundred ewes, and twenty 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；
15Thirty milch camels with their colts, forty kine, and twenty bulls, twenty she asses, and ten of their foals.
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」；
16And he sent them by the hands of his servants, every drove by itself, and he said to his servants: Go before me, and let there be a space between drove and drove.
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？』
17And he commanded the first, saying: If thou meet my brother Esau, and he ask thee: Whose art thou? or whither goest thou? or whose are these before thee?
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。』」
18Thou shalt answer: Thy servant Jacob’s: he hath sent them as a present to my lord Esau: and he cometh after 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；
19In like manner he commanded the second and the third, and all that followed the droves, saying: Speak ye the same words to Esau, when ye find 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。」
20And ye shall add: Thy servant Jacob himself also followeth after us: for he said: I will appease him with the presents that go before, and afterwards I will see him, perhaps he will be gracious to me.
21于是礼物先过去了；那夜， 雅各 在队中住宿。
21So the presents went before him, but himself lodged that 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，
22And rising early he took his two wives, and his two handmaids, with his eleven sons, and passed over the ford of Jaboc.
23先打发他们过河，又打发所有的都过去，
23And when all things were brought over that belonged to him,
24只剩下 雅各 一人。有一个人来和他摔跤，直到黎明。
24He remained alone: and behold a man wrestled with him till morning.
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。
25And when he saw that he could not overcome him, he touched the sinew of his thigh, and forthwith it shrank.
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。」
26And he said to him: Let me go, for it is break of day. He answered: I will not let thee go except thou bless me.
27那人说：「你名叫什么？」他说：「我名叫 雅各 。」
27And he said: What is thy name? He answered: Jacob.
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。」
28But he said: Thy name shall not be called Jacob, but Israel: for if thou hast been strong against God, how much more shalt thou prevail against men?
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。
29Jacob asked him, Tell me by what name art thou called? He answered: Why dost thou ask my name? And he blessed him in the same place.
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。」
30And Jacob called the name of the place Phanuel, saying: I have seen God face to face, and my soul has been saved.
31日头刚出来的时候， 雅各 经过 毗努伊勒 ，他的大腿就瘸了。
31And immediately the sun rose upon him, after he was past Phanuel; but he halted on his foot.
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 the children of Israel, unto this day, eat not the sinew, that shrank in Jacob’s thigh: because he touched the sinew of his thigh and it shrank.
