¹And 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.

¹A Jakob pozdvihol svoje oči a videl, že hľa, Ezav ide a s ním štyristo mužov, a rozdelil deti na Leu, na Rácheľ a na obe dievky.

²And he put the handmaids and their children foremost, and Leah and her children after, and Rachel and Joseph hindermost.

²A dievky a ich synov postavil napredok a Leu a jej deti za nimi a Rácheľ a Jozefa naposledy.

³And he passed over before them, and bowed himself to the ground seven times, until he came near to his brother.

³A sám išiel pred nimi a poklonil sa k zemi sedemkrát, až sa priblížil svojmu bratovi.

⁴And Esau ran to meet him, and embraced him, and fell on his neck, and kissed him: and they wept.

⁴A Ezav mu bežal oproti a objal ho a padnúc mu okolo krku bozkával ho, a plakali obaja.

⁵And 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.

⁵A keď pozdvihol svoje oči a videl ženy a deti, pýtal sa: Kto sú ti títo? A on odpovedal: To sú deti, ktoré dal Bôh z milosti tvojmu služobníkovi.

⁶Then the handmaidens came near, they and their children, and they bowed themselves.

⁶A tak sa priblížily dievky aj ich synovia a poklonili sa.

⁷And Leah also with her children came near, and bowed themselves: and after came Joseph near and Rachel, and they bowed themselves.

⁷A prišla i Lea i jej deti, a tiež sa poklonily, a potom prišiel Jozef a Rácheľ, a poklonili sa.

⁸And 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.

⁸A Ezav povedal: Načo ti celý ten tábor, ktorý som stretol? A povedal: Aby som našiel milosť v očiach svojho pána.

⁹And Esau said, I have enough, my brother; keep that thou hast unto thyself.

⁹A Ezav povedal: Mám mnoho, môj bratu, len nech bude tebe, čo je tvoje.

¹⁰And Jacob said, Nay, I pray thee, if now I have found grace in thy sight, then receive my present at my hand: for therefore I have seen thy face, as though I had seen the face of God, and thou wast pleased with me.

¹⁰A Jakob povedal: Nie, prosím, ale ak som našiel milosť v tvojich očiach, vezmeš môj dar z mojej ruky, lebo preto som videl tvoju tvár, ako by som bol videl tvár Božiu, a láskavo si ma prijal.

¹¹Take, I pray thee, my blessing that is brought to thee; because God hath dealt graciously with me, and because I have enough. And he urged him, and he took it.

¹¹Prijmi, prosím, moje požehnanie, ktoré ti je donesené, pretože mi to dal Bôh z milosti, a pretože mám hojnosť všetkého. A keď ho len nútil, vzal.

¹²And he said, Let us take our journey, and let us go, and I will go before thee.

¹²A Ezav povedal: Rušajme sa a poďme, a ja pojdem pred tebou.

¹³And he said unto him, My lord knoweth that the children are tender, and the flocks and herds with young are with me: and if men should overdrive them one day, all the flock will die.

¹³Ale on mu povedal: Môj pán vie, že deti sú útle, a že mám so sebou brezé ovce a telné kravy, a keď ich príliš poženú čo len jeden deň, pomrie mi celé stádo.

¹⁴Let my lord, I pray thee, pass over before his servant: and I will lead on softly, according as the cattle that goeth before me and the children be able to endure, until I come unto my lord unto Seir.

¹⁴Nech len, prosím, ide môj pán pred svojím služobníkom, a ja poženiem pozvoľna, podľa toho, jako bude môcť ísť stádo, ktoré je predo mnou, a podľa toho, jako budú stačiť deti, až i prijdem k svojmu pánovi do Seira.

¹⁵And Esau said, Let me now leave with thee some of the folk that are with me. And he said, What needeth it? let me find grace in the sight of my lord.

¹⁵A Ezav povedal: Dovoľ tedy, aby som postavil s tebou niekoľkých z ľudu, ktorý je so mnou. A on povedal: Načo to? Len nech najdem milosť v očiach svojho pána.

¹⁶So Esau returned that day on his way unto Seir.

¹⁶A tak sa vrátil Ezav toho dňa na svoju cestu do Seira.

¹⁷And Jacob journeyed to Succoth, and built him an house, and made booths for his cattle: therefore the name of the place is called Succoth.

¹⁷A Jakob sa poberal do Sukkóta a vystavil si tam dom a svojmu stádu spravil obory; preto nazval meno toho miesta Sukkót.

¹⁸And Jacob came to Shalem, a city of Shechem, which is in the land of Canaan, when he came from Padanaram; and pitched his tent before the city.

¹⁸A tak prišiel Jakob bez nehody a v pokoji k mestu Sichemu, ktoré je v zemi Kanaána, keď bol prišiel z Pádan-arama, a táboril pred mestom.

¹⁹And he bought a parcel of a field, where he had spread his tent, at the hand of the children of Hamor, Shechem's father, for an hundred pieces of money.

¹⁹A kúpil diel poľa, na ktorom bol roztiahol svoj stán, z ruky synov Chamora, otca Sichemovho, za sto kesít.

²⁰And he erected there an altar, and called it EleloheIsrael.

²⁰A postavil tam oltár, ktorý nazval El-elohe-jisrael.
