创世记 32
Chinese Union Version Modern Punctuation (Simplified)
雅各惧怕以扫
32 雅各仍旧行路，神的使者遇见他。 2 雅各看见他们就说：“这是神的军兵。”于是给那地方起名叫玛哈念[a]。 3 雅各打发人先往西珥地去，就是以东地，见他哥哥以扫， 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。 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。’” 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。” 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、骆驼分做两队， 8 说：“以扫若来击杀这一队，剩下的那一队还可以逃避。” 9 雅各说：“耶和华我祖亚伯拉罕的神，我父亲以撒的神啊，你曾对我说：‘回你本地本族去，我要厚待你。’ 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。 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。 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。’”
送礼物给以扫
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： 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； 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。 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。” 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？’ 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。’” 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。 20 并且你们要说：‘你仆人雅各在我们后边。’”因雅各心里说：“我借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。” 21 于是礼物先过去了，那夜雅各在队中住宿。
雅各与天使摔跤而胜之
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。 23 先打发他们过河，又打发所有的都过去， 24 只剩下雅各一人。有一个人来和他摔跤，直到黎明。 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。 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。”
神赐名以色列
27 那人说：“你名叫什么？”他说：“我名叫雅各。” 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。” 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。 30 雅各便给那地方起名叫毗努伊勒[b]，意思说：“我面对面见了神，我的性命仍得保全。” 31 日头刚出来的时候，雅各经过毗努伊勒，他的大腿就瘸了。 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。
Genesis 32
King James Version
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.

English Standard Version
Jacob Fears Esau
32 Jacob went on his way, and the angels of God met him. 2 And when Jacob saw them he said, “This is God's (A)camp!” So he called the name of that place (B)Mahanaim.[a]
3 And Jacob sent[b] messengers before him to Esau his brother in the land of (C)Seir, the country of Edom, 4 instructing them, “Thus you shall say to my lord Esau: Thus says your servant Jacob, ‘I have sojourned with Laban and stayed until now. 5 I have oxen, donkeys, flocks, male servants, and female servants. I have sent to tell my lord, in order that (D)I may find favor in your sight.’”
6 And the messengers returned to Jacob, saying, “We came to your brother Esau, and (E)he is coming to meet you, and there are four hundred men with him.” 7 Then Jacob was (F)greatly afraid and distressed. He divided the people who were with him, and the flocks and herds and camels, into two camps, 8 thinking, “If Esau comes to the one camp and attacks it, then the camp that is left will escape.”
9 And Jacob said, (G)“O God of my father Abraham and God of my father Isaac, O Lord who (H)said to me, ‘Return to your country and to your kindred, that I may do you good,’ 10 (I)I am not worthy of the least of all the deeds of steadfast love and all the faithfulness that you have shown to your servant, for with only my staff I crossed this Jordan, and now I have become two camps. 11 Please deliver me from the hand of my brother, from the hand of Esau, for (J)I fear him, that he may come and attack me, the mothers with the children. 12 But (K)you said, ‘I will surely do you good, and make your offspring as the sand of the sea, which cannot be numbered for multitude.’”
13 So he stayed there that night, and from what he had with him he took (L)a present for his brother Esau, 14 two hundred female goats and twenty male goats, two hundred ewes and twenty rams, 15 thirty milking camels and their calves, forty cows and ten bulls, twenty female donkeys and ten male donkeys. 16 These he handed over to his servants, every drove by itself, and said to his servants, “Pass on ahead of me and put a space between drove and drove.” 17 He instructed the first, “When Esau my brother meets you and asks you, ‘To whom do you belong? Where are you going? And whose are these ahead of you?’ 18 then you shall say, ‘They belong to your servant Jacob. They are a present sent to my lord Esau. And moreover, he is behind us.’” 19 He likewise instructed the second and the third and all who followed the droves, “You shall say the same thing to Esau when you find him, 20 and you shall say, ‘Moreover, your servant Jacob is behind us.’” For he thought, “I may appease him[c] with the present that goes ahead of me, and afterward I shall see his face. Perhaps he will accept me.”[d] 21 So the present passed on ahead of him, and he himself stayed that night in the camp.
Jacob Wrestles with God
22 The same night he arose and took his two wives, his two female servants, and his eleven children,[e] and crossed the ford of the (M)Jabbok. 23 He took them and sent them across the stream, and everything else that he had. 24 And Jacob was left alone. And (N)a man wrestled with him until the breaking of the day. 25 When the man saw that he did not prevail against Jacob, he touched his hip socket, and Jacob's hip was put out of joint as he wrestled with him. 26 Then he said, “Let me go, for the day has broken.” But Jacob said, (O)“I will not let you go unless you bless me.” 27 And he said to him, “What is your name?” And he said, “Jacob.” 28 Then he said, (P)“Your name shall no longer be called Jacob, but Israel,[f] for (Q)you have striven with God and (R)with men, and have prevailed.” 29 Then Jacob asked him, “Please tell me your name.” But he said, (S)“Why is it that you ask my name?” And there he blessed him. 30 So Jacob called the name of the place Peniel,[g] saying, “For (T)I have seen God face to face, and yet my life has been delivered.” 31 The sun rose upon him as he passed (U)Penuel, limping because of his hip. 32 Therefore to this day the people of Israel do not eat the sinew of the thigh that is on the hip socket, because he touched the socket of Jacob's hip on the sinew of the thigh.

La Palabra (Hispanoamérica)
32 1 Al día siguiente Labán se levantó temprano, besó a sus hijas y a sus nietos y regresó a su casa.
Jacob regresa a su tierra
2 Jacob, por su parte, siguió su camino y unos ángeles de Dios salieron a su encuentro. 3 Al verlos exclamó:
— Este es un lugar donde Dios acampa.
Y llamó a aquel lugar Majanáin.
4 Después Jacob envió por delante unos mensajeros a su hermano Esaú, a la región de Seír, en la campiña de Edom, 5 dándoles esta orden:
— Digan a mi señor Esaú. “Tu siervo Jacob nos envía a decirte: He estado viviendo hasta ahora en casa de Labán. 6 Tengo vacas, asnos, ovejas, criados y criadas. Envío este mensaje a mi señor con la esperanza de ser recibido amistosamente”.
7 Cuando los mensajeros regresaron, dijeron a Jacob:
— Hemos ido adonde está tu hermano Esaú, y ahora viene a tu encuentro con cuatrocientos hombres.
8 Entonces Jacob se llenó de miedo y angustia. Dividió en dos grupos la gente que lo acompañaba, y lo mismo hizo con las ovejas, las vacas y los camellos, 9 pues pensó: “Si Esaú ataca a un grupo, el otro podrá escapar.” 10 Luego oró diciendo:
— Dios de mi abuelo Abrahán y de mi padre Isaac, Señor que me dijiste: Regresa a tu tierra natal, donde están tus parientes, que yo te haré prosperar. 11 Yo no merezco el amor y la fidelidad que has tenido con este siervo tuyo. Cuando crucé este río Jordán, no tenía más que mi bastón; pero ahora puedo formar dos campamentos. 12 ¡Por favor, líbrame del poder amenazante de mi hermano Esaú! Tengo miedo de que venga y mate a mujeres y niños. 13 Has sido tú quien me dijiste que me harías prosperar y que mi descendencia sería tan numerosa como la arena de la playa, que es incontable.
14 Aquella noche Jacob durmió allí y, de lo que traía consigo, escogió regalos para su hermano Esaú: 15 doscientas cabras y veinte machos cabríos; doscientas ovejas y veinte carneros; 16 treinta camellas recién paridas, con sus crías; cuarenta vacas y diez novillos; veinte asnas y diez asnos. 17 Luego se los confió a sus criados en rebaños separados, y les dijo:
— Vayan delante de mí y dejen alguna distancia entre rebaño y rebaño.
18 Al primero le dio las siguientes instrucciones:
— Cuando te encuentres con mi hermano Esaú y te pregunte de quién eres, adónde vas y para quién es el ganado que llevas, 19 le responderás: “Es un regalo que tu siervo Jacob envía a mi señor Esaú. Él mismo viene detrás de nosotros”.
20 Las mismas instrucciones dio Jacob al segundo y al tercero y a todos los que guiaban los rebaños:
— Cuando encuentren a Esaú, díganle lo mismo; 21 y añadan: “Tu siervo Jacob viene detrás de nosotros”.
Porque Jacob pensaba: “Es posible que los regalos que le vayan llegando lo apacigüen y así, cuando me presente ante él, tal vez me reciba amistosamente”. 22 Envió, pues, los regalos por delante, mientras él se quedó a pasar la noche en el campamento.
Jacob lucha con un ángel
23 Aquella misma noche, Jacob se levantó, tomó a sus dos mujeres junto con sus dos criadas y sus once hijos, y los hizo cruzar el vado del río Yaboc. 24 Los hizo pasar al otro lado del río llevando consigo todo lo que tenía. 25 Y se quedó Jacob solo. Entonces un desconocido luchó con él hasta despuntar el alba. 26 Viendo el desconocido que no podía vencer a Jacob, lo golpeó en la coyuntura de la cadera, y esta parte quedó dislocada mientras luchaban. 27 Y el desconocido le dijo:
— Suéltame, que ya despunta el alba.
Y Jacob respondió:
— No te soltaré hasta que me bendigas.
28 El desconocido le preguntó:
— ¿Cómo te llamas?
Respondió:
— Jacob.
29 Entonces el desconocido le dijo:
— Ya no te llamarás Jacob, sino Israel, porque has luchado contra Dios y contra los hombres, y has vencido.
30 Jacob, a su vez, le preguntó:
— ¿Cuál es tu nombre?
Pero el desconocido contestó:
— ¿Por qué quieres saber mi nombre?
Y allí mismo lo bendijo.
31 Jacob llamó a aquel lugar Penuel, porque dijo: “He visto a Dios cara a cara y sigo vivo”.
32 Salía ya el sol cuando Jacob atravesaba Penuel; y caminaba cojeando de la cadera. 33 Por eso los israelitas no comen hasta el presente el tendón que está en la articulación de la cadera, pues Jacob fue herido en dicho tendón.
創世記 32
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
雅各預備見以掃
32 雅各繼續前行，遇見了上帝的天使。 2 雅各看見他們，就說：「這是上帝的軍隊！」於是稱那地方為瑪哈念[a]。
3 雅各先派人到西珥，就是以東，去見他哥哥以掃， 4 並吩咐他們：「你們要這樣對我主以掃說，『你僕人雅各一直寄居在拉班家裡， 5 現在他帶了牛羊、驢和僕婢回來見你，派我們來報信，希望得到你的恩待。』」
6 報信的人回到雅各那裡，說：「我們到了你哥哥以掃那裡，他正帶著四百人前來見你。」 7 雅各聽了非常害怕，便把隨從、牛群、羊群和駱駝分成兩隊， 8 心想：「如果以掃來攻擊一隊，另一隊還可以逃生。」
9 他禱告說：「耶和華，我祖父亞伯拉罕和我父親以撒的上帝啊！你吩咐我回到家鄉和親族那裡，答應厚待我。 10 我不配蒙你以慈愛和信實相待，我先前過約旦河的時候，手上只有一根杖，現在卻有兩隊人丁家畜。 11 求你救我脫離我哥哥以掃的手，我怕他會來殺我和我的妻兒。 12 然而，你曾說，『我必厚待你，使你的後代多如海沙，不可勝數。』」
13 那天晚上，雅各就在那裡過夜，又挑選牲畜送給哥哥以掃作禮物： 14 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 哺乳的駱駝三十頭及其小駱駝、母牛四十頭、公牛十頭、母驢二十頭、驢駒十頭。 16 雅各把牲畜每類分成一群，交給僕人看管，對他們說：「你們走在前頭，每群牲畜之間要保持一段距離！」 17 又吩咐走在最前面的僕人說：「我哥哥以掃遇到你的時候，如果問你是誰家的人？要到哪裡去？前頭這些牲畜是誰的？ 18 你就說，『是僕人雅各要送給他主人以掃的禮物，他自己就跟在後面。』」 19 雅各又吩咐看管第二群、第三群及其餘牲畜的僕人遇見以掃時也要這樣回答， 20 並且一定要說：「你僕人雅各就在後面。」雅各想先用禮物去化解以掃的怨恨，或許見面時以掃會善待他。 21 於是，他派人先把禮物送過去，自己則留在營裡過夜。
雅各遇見上帝
22 那天晚上，雅各起來帶著兩個妻子、兩個婢女和十一個兒子渡過雅博渡口。 23 雅各把他們連同一切所有都送過河以後， 24 自己獨自留下。這時，有一個人來和他摔跤，直到黎明。 25 那人見勝不過雅各，就在他的大腿窩摸了一下，他大腿的關節就脫了臼。 26 那人說：「天亮了，讓我走吧！」但雅各說：「你不祝福我，我就不讓你走。」 27 那人問道：「你叫什麼名字？」他說：「我叫雅各。」 28 那人說：「你以後不要再叫雅各了，你要叫以色列，因為你跟上帝和人角力都得勝了。」
29 雅各說：「請你告訴我你的名字。」那人說：「你為什麼問我的名字？」他就在那裡給雅各祝福。 30 雅各稱那地方為毗努伊勒，因為他說：「我當面見過上帝，竟能活命。」 31 雅各經過毗努伊勒的時候，太陽出來了，那時他的大腿瘸了。 32 以色列人至今都不吃大腿窩的筋，因為那人摸過雅各大腿窩的筋。
