And when Jacob saw them； he said； This is God's host： and he called the name of that place Mahanaim。
32：3雅各打发人先往西珥地去，就是以东地，见他哥哥以扫，
And Jacob sent messengers before him to Esau his brother unto the land of Seir； the country of Edom。
32：4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。
And he manded 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：
32：5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。
And 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。
32：6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。
And the messengers returned to Jacob； saying； We came to thy brother Esau； and also he eth to meet thee； and four hundred men with him。
32：7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，骆驼分作两队，
Then 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；
32：8说，以扫若来击杀这一队，剩下的那一队还可以逃避。
And said； If Esau e to the one pany； and smite it； then the other pany which is left shall escape。
32：9雅各说，耶和华我祖亚伯拉罕的神，我父亲以撒的神阿，你曾对我说，回你本地本族去，我要厚待你。
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：
32：10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。
I 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 bee two bands。
32：11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。
Deliver me； I pray thee； from the hand of my brother； from the hand of Esau： for I fear him； lest he will e and smite me； and the mother with the children。
32：12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。
And thou saidst； I will surely do thee good； and make thy seed as the sand of the sea； which cannot be numbered for multitude。
32：13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。
And he lodged there that same night； and took of that which came to his hand a present for Esau his brother；
32：14母山羊二百只，公山羊二十只，母绵羊二百只，公绵羊二十只，
Two hundred she goats； and twenty he goats； two hundred ewes； and twenty rams；
32：15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。
Thirty milch camels with their colts； forty kine； and ten bulls； twenty she asses； and ten foals。
32：16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。
And 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。
32：17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，
And he manded 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？
32：18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。
Then 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。
32：19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。
And so manded 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。
32：20并且你们要说，你仆人雅各在我们后边。因雅各心里说，我藉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。
And 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。
32：21于是礼物先过去了。那夜，雅各在队中住宿。
So went the present over before him： and himself lodged that night in the pany。
32：22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，
And he rose up that night； and took his two wives； and his two womenservants； and his eleven sons； and passed over the ford Jabbok。
32：23先打发他们过河，又打发所有的都过去，
And he took them； and sent them over the brook； and sent over that he had。
32：24只剩下雅各一人。有一个人来和他摔跤，直到黎明。
And Jacob was left alone； and there wrestled a man with him until the breaking of the day。
32：25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。
And 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。
32：26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。
And he said； Let me go； for the day breaketh。 And he said； I will not let thee go； except thou bless me。
32：27那人说，你名叫什么，他说，我名叫雅各。
And he said unto him； What is thy name？ And he said； Jacob。
32：28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。
And 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。
32：29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。
And 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。
32：30雅各便给那地方起名叫毗努伊勒（就是神之面的意思），意思说，我面对面见了神，我的性命仍得保全。
And Jacob called the name of the place Peniel： for I have seen God face to face； and my life is preserved。
32：31日头刚出来的时候，雅各经过毗努伊勒，他的大腿就瘸了。
And as he passed over Penuel the sun rose upon him； and he halted upon his thigh。
32：32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。
Therefore 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。
旧约 创世记（Genesis） 第 33 章 （ 本篇共有 50 章 ） 7上一章 下一章8 目录
33：1雅各举目观看，见以扫来了，后头跟着四百人，他就把孩子们分开交给利亚，拉结，和两个使女，
And Jacob lifted up his eyes； and looked； and； behold； Esau came； and with him four hundred men。 And he divided the children unto Leah； and unto Rachel； and unto the two handmaids。
33：2并且叫两个使女和她们的孩子在前头，利亚和她的孩子在后头，拉结和约瑟在尽后头。
And he put the handmaids and their children foremost； and Leah and her children after； and Rachel and Joseph hindermost。
33：3他自己在他们前头过去，一连七次俯伏在地才就近他哥哥。
And he passed over before them； and bowed himself to the ground seven times； until he came near to his brother。
33：4以扫跑来迎接他，将他抱住，又搂着他的颈项，与他亲嘴，两个人就哭了。
And Esau ran to meet him； and embraced him； and fell on his neck； and kissed him： and they wept。
33：5以扫举目看见妇人孩子，就说，这些和你同行的是谁呢，雅各说，这些孩子是神施恩给你的仆人的。
And he lifted up his eyes； and saw the women and the children； and said； Who are those with thee？ And he said； The children which God hath graciously given thy servant。
33：6于是两个使女和她们的孩子前来下拜。
Then the handmaidens came near； they and their children； and they bowed themselves。
33：7利亚和她的孩子也前来下拜。随后约瑟和拉结也前来下拜。
And Leah also with her children came near； and bowed themselves： and after came Joseph near and Rachel； and they bowed themselves。
33：8以扫说，我所遇见的这些群畜是什么意思呢，雅各说，是要在我主面前蒙恩的。
And he said； What meanest thou by all this drove which I met？ And he said； These are to find grace in the sight of my lord。
33：9以扫说，兄弟阿，我的已经够了，你的仍归你吧。
And Esau said； I have enough； my brother； keep that thou hast unto thyself。
33：10雅各说，不然，我若在你眼前蒙恩，就求你从我手里收下这礼物。因为我见了你的面，如同见了神的面，并且你容纳了我。
And Jacob said； Nay； I pray thee； if now I have found grace in thy sight； then
