iGenesis 33
1Wawavala uYakobi amehlo akhe, wabona, nanko uEsawu esiza, enamadoda angamakhulu omane. Wabahlula uLeya noRakeli neempelesi zombini. 2Wabeka abakhonzazana nabantwana babo ngaphambili, uLeya nabantwana bakhe emva kwakhe, uRakeli noYosefu emva kwakhe. 3Wabakhokela, waqubuda kasixhenxe, wada waya kumkhuluwa wakhe. 4Wagidima uEsawu esiya kumkhawulela, wamwola, wawa entanyeni yakhe, wamanga; balila. 5Wawaphakamisa amehlo akhe, wabona abafazi nabantwana; Athi: Ngubani na lo unawe? Wathi, Ngabantwana, athe uThixo wabanika umkhonzi wakho ngenceba. 6Zafika iimpelesi, zona nabantwana bazo, zaqubuda. 7Wasondela uLeya nabantwana bakhe, baqubuda; emva koko basondela uYosefu noRakeli, baqubuda. 8Wathi, Iyintoni na yonke le mihlambi endiyikhawulelayo? Wathi, Mabababalwe emehlweni okumkani wam. 9Wathi uEsawu, Ndanele, mninawa; gcina oko unako. 10Wathi uYakobi, Hayi; kuba ngenxa yoko ndibubone ubuso bakho, ngathi ndiyabubona ubuso bukaThixo, ukanti uyandicekisa. 11Thabatha intsikelelo yam ezisiweyo kuwe; ngokuba uThixo unenceba kum, ndonele. Wamjoka, wavuma. 12Wathi, Masihambe, sihambe, ndonikhokelela kwangoku. 13Wathi ke kuye, iNkosi yam iyazi ukuba abantwana bathantamisa, nokuba ndinemihlambi yempahla emfutshane, neyeenkomo, neyegusha; 14Inkosi yam mayiwele phambi komkhonzi wayo, yaye mna ndohamba kancinci njengomhlambi owela phambi kwam, yaye ndiya kubathwala abantwana ndide ndifike enkosini yam uSehire. 15Wathi uEsawu, Makhe ndiyishiye inxenye kwaba bantu ndinawe. Wathi: Ifuna ntoni? Mandibabalwe emehlweni enkosi yam. 16Wabuya ngaloo mini uEsawu ngendlela yakhe, esiya kwaSehire. 17uYakobi wafuduka, waya eSukoti, wazakhela indlu, iinkomo zakhe wazibiyela iintlantsi; ngenxa yoko kwathiwa igama laloo ndawo yiSukoti. 18Wafika uYakobi eSalem, emzini kaShekem, ezweni lakwaKanan, ekuveleni kwakhe ePadan-aram; wayimisa intente yakhe kufuphi nesixeko. 19Walithenga ilizwe abemise kulo intente yakhe, koonyana bakaHamore, uyise kaShekem, ngekhulu lemali. 20Wamisa khona isibingelelo, wathi igama laso nguElohe-Israyeli.
