1 雅各復行、上帝之使逢之、

2 雅各見之曰、此乃上帝之營、故名其地曰馬哈念、

3 遂遣人先往西耳地以東田、見兄以掃、

4 囑曰、可告我主以掃云、主之僕雅各曰、我旅於拉班家、越至今日。

5 有牛羊驢僕婢、特遣人告主、望沾主恩。〇

6 其人反告曰、吾儕至彼、見爾兄以掃、將率四百人來迎爾。

7 雅各悚懼不勝、以從者及牛羊駝分爲二隊、

8 曰、若以掃來擊前隊、則後隊可逃。〇

9 遂禱曰吾祖亞伯拉罕之上帝、吾父以撒之上帝耶和華、昔命我回故土故族、許以恩待、

10 爾所施之恩寵、真實无妄、我不堪得、昔我惟執一杖濟約但河、今我羣從已成二隊。

11 我畏兄以掃、恐其至擊我、并擊妻拏、故求爾拯我。

12 爾曾許以恩加我、使我苗裔如海沙、不可勝數。〇

13 是夜雅各宿於彼、簡所有者饋其兄以掃以爲禮。

14 山羊牝二百、牡二十、綿羊牝二百、牡二十、

15 牝駝與子三十、牝牛四十、牡牛十、牝驢二十、小驢十。

16 遂別爲羣、付與僕手、曰、爾往前途、使各羣相距、皆有隙地、

17 囑其前者曰、若我兄以掃遇爾、問爾爲誰牧、將往何地、此畜果誰所有乎、

18 則當言此乃禮物、爾僕雅各饋吾主以掃者、雅各在後將至。

19 再遣之僕、三遣之僕、及凡驅羣畜者囑之云、若遇以掃、當亦如是以言。

20 必曰、爾僕雅各在後將至。蓋雅各自謂必以前行之禮物、使兄復和、然後覿面、庶幾接我。

21 乃命禮物先行、雅各是夜宿於營中。〇

22 夜未央卽起、使二妻二婢及十一子濟雅伯渡。

23 眷聚旣濟。凡所有亦濟。〇

24 雅各獨留、遇一人、與之角力、迄於黎明。

25 相角之時、其人自知不勝、擊雅各髀傷之、

26 曰天明矣、請釋我去。雅各曰、不爲我祝嘏、必不容爾去。

27 曰爾何名。曰、雅各。

28 曰今以後、不祇名雅各。更名以色列、蓋爾得志於上帝前、與人爭無不勝。

29 雅各曰、請以爾名告我。曰、曷問我名、遂在彼錫嘏。

30 雅各名其地爲便以利、曰、我與上帝晤對、而覿其面、我命尚其可保。

31 日出時、雅各過便以利、髀傷、其行走趄。

32 因其人擊雅各髀、傷其巨筋、故以色列人凡髀之巨筋、至今不食云。

Chapter 32

1 And Jacob3290 went1980 on his way,1870 and the angels4397 of God430 met6293 him.

2 And when834 Jacob3290 saw7200 them, he said,559 This2088 is God's430 host:4264 and he called7121 the name8034 of that1931 place4725 Mahanaim.4266

3 And Jacob3290 sent7971 messengers4397 before6440 him to413 Esau6215 his brother251 unto the land776 of Seir,8165 the country7704 of Edom.123

4 And he commanded6680 them, saying,559 Thus3541 shall ye speak559 unto my lord113 Esau;6215 Thy servant5650 Jacob3290 saith559 thus,3541 I have sojourned1481 with5973 Laban,3837 and stayed there309 until5704 now: 6258

5 And I have1961 oxen,7794 and asses,2543 flocks,6629 and menservants,5650 and womenservants:8198 and I have sent7971 to tell5046 my lord,113 that I may find4672 grace2580 in thy sight.5869

6 And the messengers4397 returned7725 to413 Jacob,3290 saying,559 We came935 to413 thy brother251 Esau,6215 and also1571 he cometh1980 to meet7125 thee, and four702 hundred3967 men376 with5973 him.

7 Then Jacob3290 was greatly afraid3372 3966 and distressed:3334 and he divided2673 853 the people5971 that834 was with854 him, and the flocks,6629 and herds,1241 and the camels,1581 into two8147 bands;4264

8 And said,559 If518 Esau6215 come935 to413 the one259 company,4264 and smite5221 it, then the other company4264 which is left7604 shall escape.6413

9 And Jacob3290 said,559 O God430 of my father1 Abraham,85 and God430 of my father1 Isaac,3327 the LORD3068 which saidst559 unto413 me, Return7725 unto thy country,776 and to thy kindred,4138 and I will deal well3190 with5973 thee:

10 I am not worthy6994 of the least of all4480 3605 the mercies,2617 and of all4480 3605 the truth,571 which834 thou hast showed6213 unto853 thy servant;5650 for3588 with my staff4731 I passed over5674 853 this2088 Jordan;3383 and now6258 I am become1961 two8147 bands.4264

11 Deliver5337 me, I pray thee,4994 from the hand4480 3027 of my brother,251 from the hand4480 3027 of Esau:6215 for3588 I595 fear3372 him, lest6435 he will come935 and smite5221 me, and the mother517 with5921 the children.1121

12 And thou859 saidst,559 I will surely do thee good,3190 3190 5973 and make7760 853 thy seed2233 as the sand2344 of the sea,3220 which834 cannot3808 be numbered5608 for multitude.4480 7230

13 And he lodged3885 there8033 that same1931 night;3915 and took3947 of4480 that which came935 to his hand3027 a present4503 for Esau6215 his brother;251

14 Two hundred3967 she goats,5795 and twenty6242 he goats,8495 two hundred3967 ewes,7353 and twenty6242 rams,352

15 Thirty7970 milch3243 camels1581 with their colts,1121 forty705 kine,6510 and ten6235 bulls,6499 twenty6242 she asses,860 and ten6235 foals.5895

16 And he delivered5414 them into the hand3027 of his servants,5650 every drove5739 5739 by themselves;905 and said559 unto413 his servants,5650 Pass over5674 before6440 me, and put7760 a space7305 between996 drove5739 and drove.5739

17 And he commanded6680 853 the foremost,7223 saying,559 When3588 Esau6215 my brother251 meeteth6298 thee, and asketh7592 thee, saying,559 Whose4310 art thou?859 and whither575 goest1980 thou? and whose4310 are these428 before6440 thee?

18 Then thou shalt say,559 They be thy servant5650 Jacob's;3290 it1931 is a present4503 sent7971 unto my lord113 Esau:6215 and, behold,2009 also1571 he1931 is behind310 us.

19 And so1571 commanded6680 he853 the second,8145 and1571 853 the third,7992 and1571 853 all3605 that followed1980 310 the droves,5739 saying,559 On this2088 manner1697 shall ye speak1696 unto413 Esau,6215 when ye find4672 him.

20 And say559 ye moreover,1571 Behold,2009 thy servant5650 Jacob3290 is behind310 us. For3588 he said,559 I will appease3722 6440 him with the present4503 that goeth1980 before6440 me, and afterward310 3651 I will see7200 his face;6440 peradventure194 he will accept5375 6440 of me.

21 So went5674 the present4503 over before5921 6440 him: and himself1931 lodged3885 that1931 night3915 in the company.4264

22 And he rose up6965 that1931 night,3915 and took3947 853 his two8147 wives,802 and his two8147 womenservants,8198 and his eleven259 6240 sons,3206 and passed over5674 853 the ford4569 Jabbok.2999

23 And he took3947 them, and sent them over5674 853 the brook,5158 and sent over5674 853 that834 he had.

24 And Jacob3290 was left3498 alone;905 and there wrestled79 a man376 with5973 him until5704 the breaking5927 of the day.7837

25 And when he saw7200 that3588 he prevailed3201 not3808 against him, he touched5060 the hollow3709 of his thigh;3409 and the hollow3709 of Jacob's3290 thigh3409 was out of joint,3363 as he wrestled79 with5973 him.

26 And he said,559 Let me go,7971 for3588 the day7837 breaketh.5927 And he said,559 I will not3808 let thee go,7971 except3588 518 thou bless1288 me.

27 And he said559 unto413 him, What4100 is thy name?8034 And he said,559 Jacob.3290

28 And he said,559 Thy name8034 shall be called559 no3808 more5750 Jacob,3290 but3588 518 Israel:3478 for3588 as a prince hast thou power8280 with5973 God430 and with5973 men,376 and hast prevailed.3201

29 And Jacob3290 asked7592 him, and said,559 Tell5046 me, I pray thee,4994 thy name.8034 And he said,559 Wherefore4100 is it2088 that thou dost ask7592 after my name?8034 And he blessed1288 him there.8033

30 And Jacob3290 called7121 the name8034 of the place4725 Peniel:6439 for3588 I have seen7200 God430 face6440 to413 face,6440 and my life5315 is preserved.5337

31 And as834 he passed over5674 853 Penuel6439 the sun8121 rose2224 upon him, and he1931 halted6760 upon5921 his thigh.3409

32 Therefore5921 3651 the children1121 of Israel3478 eat398 not3808 of853 the sinew1517 which shrank,5384 which834 is upon5921 the hollow3709 of the thigh,3409 unto5704 this2088 day:3117 because3588 he touched5060 the hollow3709 of Jacob's3290 thigh3409 in the sinew1517 that shrank.5384

1 雅各復行、上帝之使逢之、

1 And Jacob3290 went1980 on his way,1870 and the angels4397 of God430 met6293 him.

2 雅各見之曰、此乃上帝之營、故名其地曰馬哈念、

2 And when834 Jacob3290 saw7200 them, he said,559 This2088 is God's430 host:4264 and he called7121 the name8034 of that1931 place4725 Mahanaim.4266

3 And Jacob3290 sent7971 messengers4397 before6440 him to413 Esau6215 his brother251 unto the land776 of Seir,8165 the country7704 of Edom.123

4 囑曰、可告我主以掃云、主之僕雅各曰、我旅於拉班家、越至今日。

4 And he commanded6680 them, saying,559 Thus3541 shall ye speak559 unto my lord113 Esau;6215 Thy servant5650 Jacob3290 saith559 thus,3541 I have sojourned1481 with5973 Laban,3837 and stayed there309 until5704 now: 6258

5 有牛羊驢僕婢、特遣人告主、望沾主恩。〇

5 And I have1961 oxen,7794 and asses,2543 flocks,6629 and menservants,5650 and womenservants:8198 and I have sent7971 to tell5046 my lord,113 that I may find4672 grace2580 in thy sight.5869

6 其人反告曰、吾儕至彼、見爾兄以掃、將率四百人來迎爾。

6 And the messengers4397 returned7725 to413 Jacob,3290 saying,559 We came935 to413 thy brother251 Esau,6215 and also1571 he cometh1980 to meet7125 thee, and four702 hundred3967 men376 with5973 him.

7 雅各悚懼不勝、以從者及牛羊駝分爲二隊、

7 Then Jacob3290 was greatly afraid3372 3966 and distressed:3334 and he divided2673 853 the people5971 that834 was with854 him, and the flocks,6629 and herds,1241 and the camels,1581 into two8147 bands;4264

8 曰、若以掃來擊前隊、則後隊可逃。〇

8 And said,559 If518 Esau6215 come935 to413 the one259 company,4264 and smite5221 it, then the other company4264 which is left7604 shall escape.6413

9 遂禱曰吾祖亞伯拉罕之上帝、吾父以撒之上帝耶和華、昔命我回故土故族、許以恩待、

9 And Jacob3290 said,559 O God430 of my father1 Abraham,85 and God430 of my father1 Isaac,3327 the LORD3068 which saidst559 unto413 me, Return7725 unto thy country,776 and to thy kindred,4138 and I will deal well3190 with5973 thee:

10 爾所施之恩寵、真實无妄、我不堪得、昔我惟執一杖濟約但河、今我羣從已成二隊。

10 I am not worthy6994 of the least of all4480 3605 the mercies,2617 and of all4480 3605 the truth,571 which834 thou hast showed6213 unto853 thy servant;5650 for3588 with my staff4731 I passed over5674 853 this2088 Jordan;3383 and now6258 I am become1961 two8147 bands.4264

11 我畏兄以掃、恐其至擊我、并擊妻拏、故求爾拯我。

11 Deliver5337 me, I pray thee,4994 from the hand4480 3027 of my brother,251 from the hand4480 3027 of Esau:6215 for3588 I595 fear3372 him, lest6435 he will come935 and smite5221 me, and the mother517 with5921 the children.1121

12 爾曾許以恩加我、使我苗裔如海沙、不可勝數。〇

12 And thou859 saidst,559 I will surely do thee good,3190 3190 5973 and make7760 853 thy seed2233 as the sand2344 of the sea,3220 which834 cannot3808 be numbered5608 for multitude.4480 7230

13 是夜雅各宿於彼、簡所有者饋其兄以掃以爲禮。

13 And he lodged3885 there8033 that same1931 night;3915 and took3947 of4480 that which came935 to his hand3027 a present4503 for Esau6215 his brother;251

14 山羊牝二百、牡二十、綿羊牝二百、牡二十、

14 Two hundred3967 she goats,5795 and twenty6242 he goats,8495 two hundred3967 ewes,7353 and twenty6242 rams,352

15 牝駝與子三十、牝牛四十、牡牛十、牝驢二十、小驢十。

15 Thirty7970 milch3243 camels1581 with their colts,1121 forty705 kine,6510 and ten6235 bulls,6499 twenty6242 she asses,860 and ten6235 foals.5895

16 遂別爲羣、付與僕手、曰、爾往前途、使各羣相距、皆有隙地、

16 And he delivered5414 them into the hand3027 of his servants,5650 every drove5739 5739 by themselves;905 and said559 unto413 his servants,5650 Pass over5674 before6440 me, and put7760 a space7305 between996 drove5739 and drove.5739

17 囑其前者曰、若我兄以掃遇爾、問爾爲誰牧、將往何地、此畜果誰所有乎、

17 And he commanded6680 853 the foremost,7223 saying,559 When3588 Esau6215 my brother251 meeteth6298 thee, and asketh7592 thee, saying,559 Whose4310 art thou?859 and whither575 goest1980 thou? and whose4310 are these428 before6440 thee?

18 則當言此乃禮物、爾僕雅各饋吾主以掃者、雅各在後將至。

18 Then thou shalt say,559 They be thy servant5650 Jacob's;3290 it1931 is a present4503 sent7971 unto my lord113 Esau:6215 and, behold,2009 also1571 he1931 is behind310 us.

19 再遣之僕、三遣之僕、及凡驅羣畜者囑之云、若遇以掃、當亦如是以言。

19 And so1571 commanded6680 he853 the second,8145 and1571 853 the third,7992 and1571 853 all3605 that followed1980 310 the droves,5739 saying,559 On this2088 manner1697 shall ye speak1696 unto413 Esau,6215 when ye find4672 him.

20 必曰、爾僕雅各在後將至。蓋雅各自謂必以前行之禮物、使兄復和、然後覿面、庶幾接我。

20 And say559 ye moreover,1571 Behold,2009 thy servant5650 Jacob3290 is behind310 us. For3588 he said,559 I will appease3722 6440 him with the present4503 that goeth1980 before6440 me, and afterward310 3651 I will see7200 his face;6440 peradventure194 he will accept5375 6440 of me.

21 乃命禮物先行、雅各是夜宿於營中。〇

21 So went5674 the present4503 over before5921 6440 him: and himself1931 lodged3885 that1931 night3915 in the company.4264

22 夜未央卽起、使二妻二婢及十一子濟雅伯渡。

22 And he rose up6965 that1931 night,3915 and took3947 853 his two8147 wives,802 and his two8147 womenservants,8198 and his eleven259 6240 sons,3206 and passed over5674 853 the ford4569 Jabbok.2999

23 眷聚旣濟。凡所有亦濟。〇

23 And he took3947 them, and sent them over5674 853 the brook,5158 and sent over5674 853 that834 he had.

24 雅各獨留、遇一人、與之角力、迄於黎明。

24 And Jacob3290 was left3498 alone;905 and there wrestled79 a man376 with5973 him until5704 the breaking5927 of the day.7837

25 相角之時、其人自知不勝、擊雅各髀傷之、

25 And when he saw7200 that3588 he prevailed3201 not3808 against him, he touched5060 the hollow3709 of his thigh;3409 and the hollow3709 of Jacob's3290 thigh3409 was out of joint,3363 as he wrestled79 with5973 him.

26 曰天明矣、請釋我去。雅各曰、不爲我祝嘏、必不容爾去。

26 And he said,559 Let me go,7971 for3588 the day7837 breaketh.5927 And he said,559 I will not3808 let thee go,7971 except3588 518 thou bless1288 me.

27 曰爾何名。曰、雅各。

27 And he said559 unto413 him, What4100 is thy name?8034 And he said,559 Jacob.3290

28 曰今以後、不祇名雅各。更名以色列、蓋爾得志於上帝前、與人爭無不勝。

28 And he said,559 Thy name8034 shall be called559 no3808 more5750 Jacob,3290 but3588 518 Israel:3478 for3588 as a prince hast thou power8280 with5973 God430 and with5973 men,376 and hast prevailed.3201

29 雅各曰、請以爾名告我。曰、曷問我名、遂在彼錫嘏。

29 And Jacob3290 asked7592 him, and said,559 Tell5046 me, I pray thee,4994 thy name.8034 And he said,559 Wherefore4100 is it2088 that thou dost ask7592 after my name?8034 And he blessed1288 him there.8033

30 雅各名其地爲便以利、曰、我與上帝晤對、而覿其面、我命尚其可保。

30 And Jacob3290 called7121 the name8034 of the place4725 Peniel:6439 for3588 I have seen7200 God430 face6440 to413 face,6440 and my life5315 is preserved.5337

31 日出時、雅各過便以利、髀傷、其行走趄。

31 And as834 he passed over5674 853 Penuel6439 the sun8121 rose2224 upon him, and he1931 halted6760 upon5921 his thigh.3409

32 因其人擊雅各髀、傷其巨筋、故以色列人凡髀之巨筋、至今不食云。

32 Therefore5921 3651 the children1121 of Israel3478 eat398 not3808 of853 the sinew1517 which shrank,5384 which834 is upon5921 the hollow3709 of the thigh,3409 unto5704 this2088 day:3117 because3588 he touched5060 the hollow3709 of Jacob's3290 thigh3409 in the sinew1517 that shrank.5384
