创世记 32
Chinese New Version (Traditional)
雅各作好準備與以掃相見
32 雅各繼續他的路程, 神的眾使者遇見他。(本節在《馬索拉文本》為32:2) 2 雅各看見他們,就說:“這是 神的軍隊。”於是給那地方起名叫瑪哈念。
3 雅各先派使者到西珥地,就是以東的地區,他的哥哥以掃那裡去, 4 吩咐他們說:“你們要對我主以掃這樣說:‘你的僕人雅各這樣說:我在拉班那裡寄居,一直到現在。 5 我擁有牛、驢、羊群、僕婢,現在派人來報告我主,希望得到你的歡心。’” 6 使者回到雅各那裡說:“我們到了你哥哥以掃那裡,他帶著四百人,正迎著你來。” 7 雅各感到非常懼怕和焦慮,就把隨行的人、羊群、牛群和駱駝,分成兩隊, 8 心裡想:“即使以掃來擊殺這一隊,餘下的一隊還可以逃脫。” 9 雅各說:“耶和華,我祖亞伯拉罕的 神,我父以撒的 神啊,你曾經對我說過:‘回到你自己的故鄉,到你的親族那裡去,我必厚待你。’ 10 你向你僕人所施的一切慈愛和信實,我實在不配得。從前我只拿著我的手杖過這約旦河;現在我卻擁有這兩隊人馬了。 11 求你救我脫離我哥哥以掃的手,因為我怕他來擊殺我,連母親和孩子也擊殺了。 12 你曾經說過:‘我必厚待你,使你的後裔好像海邊的沙一樣,多到不可勝數。’”
13 那天晚上,雅各在那裡過夜。然後從他所擁有的牲畜中,取出一部分,作為給他哥哥以掃的禮物, 14 就是母山羊二百隻、公山羊二十隻、母綿羊二百隻、公綿羊二十隻、 15 哺乳的母駱駝三十匹,各帶著駒子,母牛四十頭、公牛十頭、母驢二十頭、公驢十頭。 16 雅各把這些分成一隊一隊,交在僕人的手裡,又對僕人說:“你們先過去,每隊之間要留一段距離。” 17 他又吩咐走在最前的僕人說:“我哥哥以掃遇見你的時候,如果問你:‘你的主人是誰?你要到哪裡去?在你前面的這些牲畜是誰的?’ 18 你就要回答:‘是你僕人雅各的,是送給我主以掃的禮物,他自己也在我們後面。’” 19 他又吩咐第二個、第三個和所有跟在隊伍後面的人說:“你們遇見以掃的時候,都要這樣對他說。 20 你們還要說:‘你的僕人雅各在我們後面。’”因為他心裡想:“我先送禮物去,藉此與他和解,然後再與他見面,或者他會原諒我(“他會原諒我”或譯:“他會接納我”)。” 21 於是禮物先過去了;那天晚上雅各在營中過夜。
22 雅各那夜起來,帶著他的兩個妻子、兩個婢女和十一個孩子,都過了雅博渡口。
雅各與天使摔角
23 他帶著他們,先打發他們過河,然後又打發他所有的都過去。 24 只留下雅各一人,有一個人來與他摔角,直到天快亮的時候。 25 那人見自己不能勝過他,就在他的大腿窩上打了一下。於是,雅各與那人摔角的時候,大腿窩脫了節。 26 那人說:“天快亮了,讓我走吧。”雅各說:“如果你不給我祝福,我就不讓你走。”
雅各獲勝之後改名以色列
27 那人問他:“你叫甚麼名字?”他回答:“雅各。” 28 那人說:“你的名字不要再叫雅各,要叫以色列,因為你與 神與人較力,都得了勝。” 29 雅各問他,說:“請把你的名告訴我。”那人回答:“為甚麼問我的名呢?”他就在那裡給雅各祝福。 30 於是,雅各給那地方起名叫毘努伊勒,意思說:“我面對面看見了 神,我的性命仍得保全。” 31 雅各經過毘努伊勒的時候,太陽剛剛出來,照在他身上。他因為大腿的傷,跛腳行走。 32 因此,以色列人直到現在都不吃大腿窩上的筋,因為那人在雅各的大腿窩上的筋打了一下。

Jacob Prepares to Meet Esau
32 [a]Jacob also went on his way, and the angels of God(A) met him. 2 When Jacob saw them, he said, “This is the camp of God!”(B) So he named that place Mahanaim.[b](C)
3 Jacob sent messengers(D) ahead of him to his brother Esau(E) in the land of Seir,(F) the country of Edom.(G) 4 He instructed them: “This is what you are to say to my lord(H) Esau: ‘Your servant(I) Jacob says, I have been staying with Laban(J) and have remained there till now. 5 I have cattle and donkeys, sheep and goats, male and female servants.(K) Now I am sending this message to my lord,(L) that I may find favor in your eyes.(M)’”
6 When the messengers returned to Jacob, they said, “We went to your brother Esau, and now he is coming to meet you, and four hundred men are with him.”(N)
7 In great fear(O) and distress(P) Jacob divided the people who were with him into two groups,[c](Q) and the flocks and herds and camels as well. 8 He thought, “If Esau comes and attacks one group,[d] the group[e] that is left may escape.”
9 Then Jacob prayed, “O God of my father Abraham,(R) God of my father Isaac,(S) Lord, you who said to me, ‘Go back to your country and your relatives, and I will make you prosper,’(T) 10 I am unworthy of all the kindness and faithfulness(U) you have shown your servant. I had only my staff(V) when I crossed this Jordan, but now I have become two camps.(W) 11 Save me, I pray, from the hand of my brother Esau, for I am afraid(X) he will come and attack me,(Y) and also the mothers with their children.(Z) 12 But you have said, ‘I will surely make you prosper and will make your descendants like the sand(AA) of the sea, which cannot be counted.(AB)’”
13 He spent the night there, and from what he had with him he selected a gift(AC) for his brother Esau: 14 two hundred female goats and twenty male goats, two hundred ewes and twenty rams,(AD) 15 thirty female camels with their young, forty cows and ten bulls, and twenty female donkeys and ten male donkeys.(AE) 16 He put them in the care of his servants, each herd by itself, and said to his servants, “Go ahead of me, and keep some space between the herds.”(AF)
17 He instructed the one in the lead: “When my brother Esau meets you and asks, ‘Who do you belong to, and where are you going, and who owns all these animals in front of you?’ 18 then you are to say, ‘They belong to your servant(AG) Jacob. They are a gift(AH) sent to my lord Esau, and he is coming behind us.’”
19 He also instructed the second, the third and all the others who followed the herds: “You are to say the same thing to Esau when you meet him. 20 And be sure to say, ‘Your servant(AI) Jacob is coming behind us.’” For he thought, “I will pacify him with these gifts(AJ) I am sending on ahead;(AK) later, when I see him, perhaps he will receive me.”(AL) 21 So Jacob’s gifts(AM) went on ahead of him, but he himself spent the night in the camp.
Jacob Wrestles With God
22 That night Jacob got up and took his two wives, his two female servants and his eleven sons(AN) and crossed the ford of the Jabbok.(AO) 23 After he had sent them across the stream, he sent over all his possessions.(AP) 24 So Jacob was left alone,(AQ) and a man(AR) wrestled with him till daybreak. 25 When the man saw that he could not overpower him, he touched the socket of Jacob’s hip(AS) so that his hip was wrenched as he wrestled with the man. 26 Then the man said, “Let me go, for it is daybreak.”
But Jacob replied, “I will not let you go unless you bless me.”(AT)
27 The man asked him, “What is your name?”
“Jacob,”(AU) he answered.
28 Then the man said, “Your name(AV) will no longer be Jacob, but Israel,[f](AW) because you have struggled with God and with humans and have overcome.”(AX)
29 Jacob said, “Please tell me your name.”(AY)
But he replied, “Why do you ask my name?”(AZ) Then he blessed(BA) him there.
30 So Jacob called the place Peniel,[g] saying, “It is because I saw God face to face,(BB) and yet my life was spared.”
31 The sun rose above him as he passed Peniel,[h](BC) and he was limping because of his hip. 32 Therefore to this day the Israelites do not eat the tendon attached to the socket of the hip,(BD) because the socket of Jacob’s hip was touched near the tendon.

32 And Jacob went on his way, and the angels of God met him.
2 And when Jacob saw them, he said, This is God's host: and he called the name of that place Mahanaim.
3 And Jacob sent messengers before him to Esau his brother unto the land of Seir, the country of Edom.
4 And he commanded 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:
5 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.
6 And the messengers returned to Jacob, saying, We came to thy brother Esau, and also he cometh to meet thee, and four hundred men with him.
7 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;
8 And said, If Esau come to the one company, and smite it, then the other company which is left shall escape.
9 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:
10 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 become two bands.
11 Deliver me, I pray thee, from the hand of my brother, from the hand of Esau: for I fear him, lest he will come and smite me, and the mother with the children.
12 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.
13 And he lodged there that same night; and took of that which came to his hand a present for Esau his brother;
14 Two hundred she goats, and twenty he goats, two hundred ewes, and twenty rams,
15 Thirty milch camels with their colts, forty kine, and ten bulls, twenty she asses, and ten foals.
16 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.
17 And he commanded 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?
18 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.
19 And so commanded 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.
20 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.
21 So went the present over before him: and himself lodged that night in the company.
22 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.
23 And he took them, and sent them over the brook, and sent over that he had.
24 And Jacob was left alone; and there wrestled a man with him until the breaking of the day.
25 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.
26 And he said, Let me go, for the day breaketh. And he said, I will not let thee go, except thou bless me.
27 And he said unto him, What is thy name? And he said, Jacob.
28 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.
29 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.
30 And Jacob called the name of the place Peniel: for I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved.
31 And as he passed over Penuel the sun rose upon him, and he halted upon his thigh.
32 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.

13 那天晚上,雅各在那裡過夜。然後從他所擁有的牲畜中,取出一部分,作為給他哥哥以掃的禮物, 14 就是母山羊二百隻、公山羊二十隻、母綿羊二百隻、公綿羊二十隻、 15 哺乳的母駱駝三十匹,各帶著駒子,母牛四十頭、公牛十頭、母驢二十頭、公驢十頭。 16 雅各把這些分成一隊一隊,交在僕人的手裡,又對僕人說:“你們先過去,每隊之間要留一段距離。” 17 他又吩咐走在最前的僕人說:“我哥哥以掃遇見你的時候,如果問你:‘你的主人是誰?你要到哪裡去?在你前面的這些牲畜是誰的?’ 18 你就要回答:‘是你僕人雅各的,是送給我主以掃的禮物,他自己也在我們後面。’” 19 他又吩咐第二個、第三個和所有跟在隊伍後面的人說:“你們遇見以掃的時候,都要這樣對他說。 20 你們還要說:‘你的僕人雅各在我們後面。’”因為他心裡想:“我先送禮物去,藉此與他和解,然後再與他見面,或者他會原諒我(“他會原諒我”或譯:“他會接納我”)。” 21 於是禮物先過去了;那天晚上雅各在營中過夜。

雅各獲勝之後改名以色列
27 那人問他:“你叫甚麼名字?”他回答:“雅各。” 28 那人說:“你的名字不要再叫雅各,要叫以色列,因為你與 神與人較力,都得了勝。” 29 雅各問他,說:“請把你的名告訴我。”那人回答:“為甚麼問我的名呢?”他就在那裡給雅各祝福。 30 於是,雅各給那地方起名叫毘努伊勒,意思說:“我面對面看見了 神,我的性命仍得保全。” 31 雅各經過毘努伊勒的時候,太陽剛剛出來,照在他身上。他因為大腿的傷,跛腳行走。 32 因此,以色列人直到現在都不吃大腿窩上的筋,因為那人在雅各的大腿窩上的筋打了一下。
