Kinohi 33
1 NANA aku la na maka o Iakoba, ike aku la, aia hoi, ua hiki mai o Esau me na haneri kanaka eha. A puunaue aku la ia i na kamalii ia Lea, a ia Rahela, a i na kauwawahine elua.
Then Jacob lifted up his eyes and looked, and lo! Esau, coming in, —and with him, four hundred men. So he divided the children—unto Leah and unto Rachel, and unto the two handmaids;
2 Hoonoho aku la ia i na kauwawahine me na keiki a laua mamua, ia Lea hoi me kana mau keiki mahope iho, a ia Rahela me Iosepa mahope loa.
and put the handmaids and their children first, —and Leah and her children next, and Rachel and Joseph next;
3 Hele e aku la ia mamua o lakou; kulou pahiku iho la ia ma ka honua, a hiki aku la ia i kona kaikuaana.
but he himself, passed over before them, and bowed himself to the earth seven times, until he had come near unto his brother.
4 Holo mai la o Esau e halawai me ia, apo mai la ia ia, kau iho la ma kona a-i, a honi iho la ia ia: a uwe iho la laua.
Then ran Esau to meet him, and embraced him, and fell on his neck, —and they wept.
5 Alawa ae la kona mau maka, ike ae i na wahine a me na kamalii; ninau mai la ia, Owai lakou nei me oe? I aku la kela, O lakou no na keiki a ke Akua i haawi lokomaikai mai ai i kau kauwa.
Then lifted he up his eyes, and beheld the women and the children, and said What are these to thee? And he said—The children wherewith God hath favoured thy servant,
6 Alaila neenee mai la na kauwawahine, o laua me na keiki a laua, a kulou iho la lakou.
Then came near the handmaids, they—and their children, —and bowed themselves.
7 Neenee mai la hoi o Lea me kana mau keiki, a kulou iho la lakou: a mahope iho, neenee mai la o Iosepa me Rahela, a kulou iho la laua.
Then came near Leah also with her children, —and they bowed themselves. And afterwards, came near Joseph with Rachel, and they bowed themselves,
8 Ninau mai la kela, Heaha ia oe kela poe nui a pau i halawai me au? I aku la oia, He mea ia e loaa mai ai ke aloha o kuu haku.
Then said he, What to thee is all this camp, which I have fallen in with? And he said, —To find favour in the eyes of my lord.
9 I mai la kela, He nui no ka'u, e kuu kaikaina, ia oe no kau mea.
Then said Esau, I have an abundance, —my brother, be thine what thou hast!
10 I aku la o Iakoba, Aole, ke noi aku nei au ia oe, ina i loaa ia'u ke alohaia imua on, e lawe oe i ka'u makana ma ko'u lima: no ka mea, ua ike iho nei au i kou maka, e like me kuu ike ana i ka maka o ke Akua, a ua oluolu mai oe ia'u.
Then said Jacob, Nay, I pray thee, if, I pray thee, I have found favour in thine eyes, then thou wilt take my present at my hand, —For on this account, hath my seeing thy face been like seeing the face of God in that thou wast well-pleased with me.
11 Ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e lawe oe i ka'u hoomaikai ana i haawiia ku nau; no ka mea, ua lokomaikai mai ke Akua ia'u, a no ka mea, ua lako hoi au. Koi aku la oia ia ia, a lawe hoi kela.
Take, I pray thee my blessing which hath been brought in to thee, because God hath shewed me favour and because I have everything. So he was urgent with him and he took it.
12 I mai la kela, e neenee aku kakou i ko kakou hele ana, a e hele hoi au imua ou.
Then he said, Let us break up and go, and let me go on before thee.
13 I aku la oia ia ia, Ua ike no kuu haku, he palupalu na kamalii, a me au no na hipa hapai a me na bipi hapai: ina e hoolalelaleia lakou i ka la hookahi, e pau ka ohana holoholona i ka make.
And he said unto him, My lord, is taking note, that, the children are tender, —and the flocks and the herds are giving suck with me, —and, should I overdrive them a single day, then would all the flocks die.
14 Ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e hele e aku kuu haku mamua o kana kauwa ma kela kapa; a na'u no e hele malie aku, e like me ka hiki ana o na holoholona a me na kamalii ke hele imua o'u, a hiki aku au i kuu haku ma Seira.
Let my lord, I pray thee pass over before his servant, and let, me, lead on in my own easy way, at the pace of the cattle that are before me, and at the pace of the children, until that I come in unto my lord, towards Seir.
15 I mai la o Esau, E pono paha na'u e waiho me oe i kekahi poe kanaka o'u. I aku la ia, No ke aha hoi ia? ina e loaa ia'u ke alohaia imua o kuu haku.
Then said Esau: Let me leave, I pray thee, along with thee, some of the people who are with me! And he said—Why so? let me find favour in the eyes of my lord!
16 A hoi hou aku la o Esau ia la i kona hele ana i Seira.
So Esau returned, that day, to his journey towards Mount Seir.
17 Hele aku la o Iakoba i Sukota, a kukulu ia i hale nona, a hana iho la i hale kamala no kona poe holoholona: nolaila, i kapaia'i ka inoa o ia wahi, o i Sukota.
But, Jacob, brake up towards Succoth, and built for himself a house, for his cattle, made he places of shelter, for which cause, the name of the place was called, Succoth.
18 Hele pomaikai aku la o Iakoba i kekahi kulanakauhale o Sekema, ma ka aina o Kanaana ia ia i hoi mai ai mai Padanarama mai, a kukulu iho la ia i kona halelewa imua o ua kulanakauhale la.
And Jacob came in peace to the city of Shechem, which is in the land of Canaan, —when he came in from Padan-aram, —and he encamped before the city.
19 Kuai aku la ia i kauwahi o ka aina, kahi ana i kukulu ai i kona halelewa, ma ka lima o na keiki a Hamora a ka makuakane o Sekema, i na apana kala he haneri.
And he bought the portion of the field where he had spread out his tent, at the hand of the sons of Hamor, father of Shechem, —for a hundred kesitahs.
20 Malaila oia i hana'i i kuahu, a kapa iho la i kona inoa, o Elelohe-Iseraela.
And he set up there an altar, —and called it, El-elohe-Israel.
