Baibal Olcim (Matupi Chin)
1And Jacob went on his way, and the angels of God met him.
1Tedae Jakob loh amah longpuei ah a caeh hatah anih te Pathen kah puencawn rhoek a doe uh.
2And when Jacob saw them, he said, This is God’s host: and he called the name of that place Mahanaim.
2Tedae Jakob loh amih te a hmuh vaengah, “Hekah he Pathen kah rhaehhmuen ni,” a ti tih tekah hmuen ming te Mahanaim a sui.
3And Jacob sent messengers before him to Esau his brother unto the land of Seir, the country of Edom.
3Te phoeiah Jakob loh Edom kho, Seir khohmuen la a maya Esau taengah a hmai la puencawn rhoek te a tueih.
4And he commanded them, saying, Thus shall ye speak unto my lord Esau; Thy servant Jacob saith thus, I have sojourned with Laban, and stayed there until now:
4Te vaengah amih te a uen tih, “Ka boei Esau taengah he he thui pah. Na sal Jakob tah Laban taengah ka bakuep tih tahae duela ka uelh.
5And I have oxen, and asses, flocks, and menservants, and womenservants: and I have sent to tell my lord, that I may find grace in thy sight.
5Te phoeiah kai taengah vaito neh laak boiva khaw, sal neh salnu khaw om. Na mikhmuh ah mikdaithen dang hamla ka boeipa taengah aka puen la kai n'tueih,’ ti nah,” a ti nah.
6¶ And the messengers returned to Jacob, saying, We came to thy brother Esau, and also he cometh to meet thee, and four hundred men with him.
6Tedae puencawn rhoek te Jakob taengla mael uh tih, “Na maya Esau taengla ka cet uh coeng, te nang te doe ham a taengkah hlang ya li neh halo coeng,” a ti na uh.
7Then Jacob was greatly afraid and distressed: and he divided the people that was with him, and the flocks, and herds, and the camels, into two bands;
7Te vaengah Jakob loh bahoeng a rhih tih amah te a te daengdaeh uh. Te dongah a taengkah pilnam te khaw, boiva khaw, saelhung khaw, kalauk rhoek khaw rhoi nit la a tael.
8And said, If Esau come to the one company, and smite it, then the other company which is left shall escape.
8Te khaw Esau loh rhoi at te a paan tih a ngawn atah rhoi at aka om te khaw rhalyong la om saeh a ti dongah ni.
9¶ And Jacob said, O God of my father Abraham, and God of my father Isaac, the LORD which saidst unto me, Return unto thy country, and to thy kindred, and I will deal well with thee:
9Te phoeiah Jakob loh, “Kai taengah namah khohmuen neh na pacaboeina taengla bal lamtah nang te kan hoeikhang sak ni,” aka ti a pa Abraham kah Pathen neh a pa Isaak kah BOEIPA Pathen,
10I am not worthy of the least of all the mercies, and of all the truth, which thou hast shewed unto thy servant; for with my staff I passed over this Jordan; and now I am become two bands.
10Sitlohnah cungkuem neh uepomnah cungkuem te na salpa taengah nan saii ham tah rhaidaeng. Ka cunghol neh Jordan he ka kat ngawn dae rhoi nit la ka lo coeng.
11Deliver me, I pray thee, from the hand of my brother, from the hand of Esau: for I fear him, lest he will come and smite me, and the mother with the children.
11Ka maya kut lamloh, Esau kut lamkah kai n'huul mai dae. Anih te ka rhih, halo vetih camoe rhoek neh a manu rhoek khaw, kamah khaw n'ngawn ve.
12And thou saidst, I will surely do thee good, and make thy seed as the sand of the sea, which cannot be numbered for multitude.
12Tedae namah loh, 'Hoeikhang ham khaw nang te kan hoeikhang sak vetih nang kah tiingan te tuitunli kah laivin bangla ka khueh vetih tae thai mahpawh,’ na ti,” tila thangthui.
13¶ And he lodged there that same night; and took of that which came to his hand a present for Esau his brother;
13Te dongah teah te khoyin puet rhaeh. A kut ah a khuen te khaw a maya Esau ham khosaa la,
14Two hundred she goats, and twenty he goats, two hundred ewes, and twenty rams,
14Maae a la yahnih neh maaetal pumkul, tumanu yahnih neh tutal pumkul.
15Thirty milch camels with their colts, forty kine, and ten bulls, twenty she asses, and ten foals.
15Kalauk cacun te a ca rhoek hmaihneh thumkip, vaito a la likip neh vaitotal pumrha, laak a la pumkul neh laaktal pumrha,” a paek.
16And he delivered them into the hand of his servants, every drove by themselves; and said unto his servants, Pass over before me, and put a space betwixt drove and drove.
16Te phoeiah tuping, tuping te amah loh a sal rhoek kut ah a tloeng tih a sal rhoek te,” Kai hmai ah cet lamtah tuping laklo neh tuping laklo te hnalak khueh uh,” a ti nah.
17And he commanded the foremost, saying, When Esau my brother meeteth thee, and asketh thee, saying, Whose art thou? and whither goest thou? and whose are these before thee?
17Te phoeiah lamhma taengah, “Ka maya Esau te na hum uh tih, 'Nang ulae? Melam na caeh eh? Na hmaikah rhoek he u kah lae a ti tih n'dawt vaengah,
18Then thou shalt say, They be thy servant Jacob’s; it is a present sent unto my lord Esau: and, behold, also he is behind us.
18'Na sal Jakob kah ni. Hekah he ka boeipa Esau taengah khosaa la ham pat tih amah khaw kaimih hnukkah halo ke,’ ti nah,” a ti tih a uen.
19And so commanded he the second, and the third, and all that followed the droves, saying, On this manner shall ye speak unto Esau, when ye find him.
19Te phoeiah a pabae te khaw, a pathum te khaw, tuping hnukah aka cet boeih te khaw, “Nangmih khaw Esau neh na hum uh vaengah hekah olka he thikat la thui uh lamtah,
20And say ye moreover, Behold, thy servant Jacob is behind us. For he said, I will appease him with the present that goeth before me, and afterward I will see his face; peradventure he will accept of me.
20nang kah sal Jakob khaw kaimih hnukah om ke,’ na ti uh ni,” a ti tih a uen. Ba dongah tikoinih ka mikhmuh kah aka pongpa khosaa neh a hmai ka saak pah vetih, te phoeiah tah a maelhmai ka hmuh vaengah kai maelhmai khaw a hlam khaming a ti.
21So went the present over before him: and himself lodged that night in the company.
21Te dongah khosaa te a hmai la a caeh sak. Tedae amah tah rhaehhmuen ah hlaem at rhaeh pueng.
22And he rose up that night, and took his two wives, and his two womenservants, and his eleven sons, and passed over the ford Jabbok.
22Tedae tekah khoyin ah thoo tih a yuu rhoi neh a salnu rhoi khaw, a ca rhoek hlai at te khaw a loh tih Jabbok lamkai ah a kat puei.
23And he took them, and sent them over the brook, and sent over that he had.
23Amih te khaw a khuen tih a thak phoeiah amah taengah aka om rhoek te khaw soklong la a tueih.
24¶ And Jacob was left alone; and there wrestled a man with him until the breaking of the day.
24Te vaengah Jakob te amah bueng la a cul coeng dongah anih te hlang pakhat loh khothaih tom due a hnueih.
25And when he saw that he prevailed not against him, he touched the hollow of his thigh; and the hollow of Jacob’s thigh was out of joint, as he wrestled with him.
25Tedae anih te ka na pawh tila a hmuh vaengah Jakob kah a hlit te a koi pah tih anih te a hnueih pangthuem Jakob kah a hlit te voeng nong.
26And he said, Let me go, for the day breaketh. And he said, I will not let thee go, except thou bless me.
26Te vaengah, “Khothaih loh n'kae coeng tih kai n'hlah laeh,” a ti nah hatah Jakob loh, “Kai he yoethen nan paek hlan atah nang khaw kan hlah mahpawh,” a ti nah.
27And he said unto him, What is thy name? And he said, Jacob.
27Te dongah amah la, “Nang ming te balae,” a ti nah hatah, “Jakob,” a ti nah dae,
28And he said, Thy name shall be called no more Jacob, but Israel: for as a prince hast thou power with God and with men, and hast prevailed.
28“Na ming te Jakob ti voel boel lamtah Pathen neh hlang rhoek te na hnueih tih na na coeng dongah Israel ti laeh,” a ti nah.
29And Jacob asked him , and said, Tell me , I pray thee, thy name. And he said, Wherefore is it that thou dost ask after my name? And he blessed him there.
29Te phoeiah Jakob loh a dawt tih, “Na ming te thui lah,” a ti nah hatah, “Ka ming he ba ham lae nan dawt,” a ti nah tih anih te yoethen pahoi a paek.
30And Jacob called the name of the place Peniel: for I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved.
30Te dongah Jakob loh, “Pathen maelhmai te a hmai lamloh hmuh coeng dae ka hinglu huul uh,” a ti dongah tekah hmuen ming te Peniel a sui.
31And as he passed over Penuel the sun rose upon him, and he halted upon his thigh.
31Tedae Penuel te a poeng vanneh a soah khomik thoeng. Anih khaw a hlit dongah cungdo phai.
32Therefore the children of Israel eat not of the sinew which shrank, which is upon the hollow of the thigh, unto this day: because he touched the hollow of Jacob’s thigh in the sinew that shrank.
32Te dongah Israel ca rhoek loh a hlit dongkah tharhui thanal te tihnin due ca uh pawh. Jakob kah tharhui thanal ah aka om a hlit te a koi pah coeng.
