創世記 32

1 雅各仍舊行的使者遇見他。

2 雅各見他們就:這是的軍兵,於是給那地方起名瑪哈念(就是二軍兵的意思)。

3 雅各打發人先往西珥去,就是以東,見他哥哥以掃

4 吩咐他們:你們對我以掃:你的僕人雅各這樣:我在拉班那裡寄居,直到如今。

5 我有牛、羊群、僕婢,現在打發人來報告我,為要在你眼前蒙恩。

6 所打發的回到雅各那裡,:我們到了你哥哥以掃那裡,他帶著,正迎著你

7 雅各就甚懼,而且愁煩,便把那與他同在的人口和羊群牛群駱駝分做兩隊,

8 以掃擊殺這隊,剩下的那隊還可以逃避。

9 雅各耶和華─我祖亞伯拉罕的,我父親以撒的阿,你曾對我:回你本本族去,我要厚待你。

10 你向僕人所施的一切慈愛和誠實,我一點也不配得;我先前只拿著我的杖過這約但河,如今我卻成了兩隊了。

11 求你我脫離我哥哥以掃;因為我怕他殺我,連妻子帶兒女一同殺了。

12 你曾:我必定厚待你,使你的後裔如同邊的沙,多得不可勝

13 當夜,雅各在那裡住宿,就從他所有的物中拿禮物要送給他哥哥以掃

14 山羊隻,公山羊二十隻,母綿隻,公綿二十隻,

15 奶崽子的駱駝三十隻─各帶著崽子,母四十隻,公隻,母二十匹,匹;

16 每樣各分一群,交在僕人下,就對僕人:你們要在我前頭過去,使群群相離,有空閒的地方;

17 又吩咐儘先走的:我哥哥以掃遇見你的時候,問你:你是那家的人?要往那裡去?你前頭?這些是誰的?

18 你就:是你僕人雅各的,是送給我以掃禮物;他自己也在我們邊?。

19 又吩咐第二、第三,和一切趕群畜的人:你們遇見以掃的時候也要這樣對他

20 並且你們要:你僕人雅各我們邊。因雅各心裡:我藉著在我前頭去的禮物解他的恨,然再見他的面,或者他容納我。

21 於是禮物先過去了;那夜,雅各在隊中住宿。

22 他夜間起來,帶著兩個妻子,兩個使女,並十一個兒子,過了雅博渡口,

23 先打發他們過,又打發所有的都過去,

24 雅各。有一個來和他摔跤,直到黎明。

25 那人見自己勝不過他,就將他的大腿窩摸了一把,雅各大腿窩正在摔跤的時候就扭了。

26 那人:天黎明了,容我去罷!雅各:你不給我祝福,我就不容你去。

27 那人:你名叫甚麼?他:我名叫雅各

28 那人:你的名不要再叫雅各,要叫以色列;因為你與與人較力,都得了勝。

29 雅各問他:請將你的名告訴我。那人:何必問我的名?於是在那裡給雅各祝福

30 雅各便給那地方起名毘努伊勒(就是之面的意思),意思:我面對面見了,我的性命仍得保全。

31 日頭剛出來的時候,雅各經過毘努伊勒,他的大腿就瘸了。

32 故此,以色列人大腿窩的,直到今日,因為那人摸了雅各大腿窩的

Genesis 1

Lernen

1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.

2 Now the earth was formless and empty. Darkness was on the surface of the deep. God's Spirit was hovering over the surface of the waters.

3 God said, "Let there be light," and there was light.

4 God saw the light, and saw that it was good. God divided the light from the darkness.

5 God called the light "day," and the darkness he called "night." There was evening and there was morning, one day.

6 God said, "Let there be an expanse in the middle of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters."

7 God made the expanse, and divided the waters which were under the expanse from the waters which were above the expanse; and it was so.

8 God called the expanse "sky." There was evening and there was morning, a second day.

9 God said, "Let the waters under the sky be gathered together to one place, and let the dry land appear;" and it was so.

10 God called the dry land "earth," and the gathering together of the waters he called "seas." God saw that it was good.

11 God said, "Let the earth put forth grass, herbs yielding seed, and fruit trees bearing fruit after their kind, with its seed in it, on the earth;" and it was so.

12 The earth brought forth grass, herbs yielding seed after their kind, and trees bearing fruit, with its seed in it, after their kind; and God saw that it was good.

13 There was evening and there was morning, a third day.

14 God said, "Let there be lights in the expanse of sky to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days and years;

15 and let them be for lights in the expanse of sky to give light on the earth;" and it was so.

16 God made the two great lights: the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night. He also made the stars.

17 God set them in the expanse of sky to give light to the earth,

18 and to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness. God saw that it was good.

19 There was evening and there was morning, a fourth day.

20 God said, "Let the waters swarm with swarms of living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth in the open expanse of sky."

21 God created the large sea creatures, and every living creature that moves, with which the waters swarmed, after their kind, and every winged bird after its kind. God saw that it was good.

22 God blessed them, saying, "Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let birds multiply on the earth."

23 There was evening and there was morning, a fifth day.

24 God said, "Let the earth bring forth living creatures after their kind, livestock, creeping things, and animals of the earth after their kind;" and it was so.

25 God made the animals of the earth after their kind, and the livestock after their kind, and everything that creeps on the ground after its kind. God saw that it was good.

26 God said, "Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the birds of the sky, and over the livestock, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth."

27 God created man in his own image. In God's image he created him; male and female he created them.

28 God blessed them. God said to them, "Be fruitful, multiply, fill the earth, and subdue it. Have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the sky, and over every living thing that moves on the earth."

29 God said, "Behold, I have given you every herb yielding seed, which is on the surface of all the earth, and every tree, which bears fruit yielding seed. It will be your food.

30 To every animal of the earth, and to every bird of the sky, and to everything that creeps on the earth, in which there is life, I have given every green herb for food;" and it was so.

31 God saw everything that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. There was evening and there was morning, a sixth day.
