29  Mukubhita o ima yiyi, Jakobo wasuluka ni kwenda o njila yê, wayi ku jixi jala ku mbandu kutundila o dikumbi.* 2  Kyenyiki mwene wamono kixima mu mukáwu, bhu mbandu a kixima bhwa kexile ibhanga itatu ya jimbudi jazeka, mukonda bhu kixima kyenyokyo bhwene bhwa kexile munwina o ibhaku. Ku thandu a kixima kwexile ditadi dyadikota. 3  Kyoso kyexile mu bhongolola o ibhaku yoso bhenyobho, o tufunga twexile mukatula o ditadi ku thandu a kixima, phala kunwisa o ibhaku. Mu kuzubha, akexile muvutula dingi o ditadi bhu kididi kyê ku thandu a kixima. 4  Kyenyiki Jakobo wa ebhwidisa: “Jiphange jami, mu akwa kwebhi?” Ene a mutambwijila: “Tu akwa Halane.” 5  Mwene wa ebhwidisa: “Labanu mulawula a Naholo mwa mwijiya?” Ene a mutambwijila: “Xé! Twamwijiya!” 6  Mukyenyiki, mwene wa ambela: “Mwene wala kyambote?” Ene a mutambwijila: “Xé! Wala kyambote! Mon’ê Lakele yu wiza kumoxi ni jimbudi!” 7  Kyenyiki-phe mwene wa a tangela: “Twala hanji ku kumbi dya mediya. Kikithangana luwa kya kubhongolola o ibhaku. Bhanenu menya ku jimbudi phala jinwe. Mukusuluka mu jambata ku mukáwu phala jidye.” 8  Mukiki, ene a tambwijila: “Kitutena kukibhanga kate kyanda bhongolola o ibhaku yoso, anga a katula o ditadi ku thandu a kixima. Kyene kiwa ki tutena kubhana o menya ku jimbudi.” 9  Kyoso Jakobo kya kexile hanji muzwela ni ene, Lakele wabhixila ni jimbudi, mukonda mwéne wexile mukwinga o jimbudi ja tat’ê. 10  Kyoso Jakobo kya mono Lakele mon’a Labanu, phang’ya man’yâ ni jimbudi ja Labanu, mu kithangana kyenyokyo Jakobo wazukama, wakatula o ditadi dyexile ku thandu a kixima, yu wabhana o menya ku jimbudi ja Labanu, phang’ya man’yâ. 11  Kyenyiki, Jakobo wabhana nzobole kwa Lakele, anga umateka kudila ni dízwi dyaswina. 12  Jakobo wambela Lakele kwila, wexile ndandu* ya tat’ê, ni kwila, wexile mon’a Bebeka. Lakele anga u ya ni lusolo mu kitangela tat’ê. 13  Kyoso Labanu kyevu o njimbu yalungu ni Jakobo mon’a phang’yê, weza ni lusolo mu musanga. Labanu wa mundwakuna, wa mubhana nzobole, wa mwambata kubhata dyê. Jakobo anga u tangela kwa Labanu yoso yabhitile ni mwene. 14  Labanu wa mwambela-phe: “Eye u ndandu* yami mwene.” Jakobo anga ukala-nê mu mbeji ya muvimba. 15  Labanu wambela Jakobo wixi: “Mukonda dya kukala u ndandu* yami, wanda ngisidivila mu kingoho? Ngitangele, wandala kwila ngikufuta kikuxi?” 16  Labanu wexile ni twana tuyadi twa ahatu, o mona wa dyanga Leya, o wa kayadi Lakele. 17  Maji o mesu a Leya kexile mubhenya, o Lakele-phe, wexile muhatu wa wabhele kyavulu. 18  Jakobo wazolele Lakele, kyenyiki wambe: “Ngixikina ku kusidivila mu sambwadi dya mivu phala u ngibhane Lakele mon’ê wa kayadi.” 19  Kyenyiki, Labanu wambe: “Mudyami kota nga mubhana kokwé, muveji dya ku mubhana ku diyala dyengi. Tunga jinga n’eme.” 20  Jakobo anga u sidivila sambwadi dya mivu phala kutambula Lakele, maji ku mesu mê yedile kala tu izuwa ngo, mukonda dya ku muzola kyavulu. 21  Mukyenyiki Jakobo wambela Labanu wixi: “Ngibhane kya muhat’wami, mukonda o izuwa yami yatena kya, phala ngitene kya kuzeka-nê.” 22  Mukonda dya kiki, Labanu wabhongolola o mayala oso a kididi kyokyo, anga u bhanga fesa yadikota. 23  Maji mu usuku, Labanu wakwata mon’ê Leya yu wa mwambata kwa Jakobo phala kuzeka-nê. 24  Labanu wakwata we mubhik’ê Nzidipa, yu wa mubhana kwa mon’ê Leya phala kukala selevende yê. 25  Mu kamene, Jakobo wamono kwila a mubhana Leya. Kyenyiki, mwene wambela Labanu: “Ihi i wa ngibhange? Kingakusidivila phala ku ngibhana Lakele? Mukonda dyahi wa nginganala?” 26  Labanu watambwijila: “Etu kuku kikifwa kyetu kubhana o ndenge, ande dya kubhana o dikota. 27  Bhanga hanji o fesa ya muhatu yú, mu semana yiyi. Mukusuluka wanda ngisidivila dingi mu sambwadi dya mivu ni u tambule we o muhatu wamukwa.” 28  Mukyenyiki Jakobo wabhange o fesa ya Leya, mu semana yenyoyo. Mukusuluka Labanu wa mubhana we mon’ê Lakele phala kukala muhat’wê. 29  Labanu wakwata mubhik’ê Bila, yu wa mubhana kwa mon’ê Lakele, phala kukala selevende yê. 30  Kyenyiki Jakobo wazeka ni Lakele. Mwene wazolele dingi Lakele, o Leya ndenge. Anga u sidivila dingi Labanu mu sambwadi dya mivu. 31  Kyoso Jihova kyamono kwila Leya kamuzolele,* wabhangesa kwila mwene wimita.* Maji Lakele kexile muvwala. 32  Kyenyiki, Leya wemita anga u vwala mon’a diyala, wa muluku o dijina dya Lubene,* wixi: “Mukonda Jihova wamono o kutata kwami. Kindala mwadiwami wanda mateka ku ngizola.” 33  Mwene wemita dingi, anga u vwala mon’a diyala, wixi: “Mukonda Jihova wa ngivu, kuma eme kangizolele. Kyenyiki, wa ngibhana dingi o mona yú.” Kyene kya mulukila o dijina dya Ximinyá.* 34  Mwene wemita dingi, anga u vwala mon’a diyala yu wambe wixi: “Kindala mwadiwami wanda kala n’eme, mukonda nga muvwalela twana tutatu twa mala.” Mukyenyiki, mwene wa muluku o dijina dya Levi.* 35  Mwene wemita dingi lwamukwa anga u vwala mon’a diyala, wixi: “Kindala nganda ximana Jihova.” Mukyenyiki wa muluku o dijina dya Judá.* Mukubhita o ima yiyi, mwene wasuku hanji ni kuvwala.
