⁵ Ndipo penipo Esau wanguyunuska maso ghake wanguwona ŵanthukazi ndi ŵana, wanguti, “Mbayani yaŵa we nawo?” Yakobe wanguti, “Mbana ŵeniwo Chiuta wangundipaska ndi wezi ndamuŵanda wako.”

⁷ Leya nayo viyo pe ndi ŵana ŵake ŵangundere pafupi ndi wangukotama pasi; ndipo pa umari Yosefe ndi Rakelo ŵangundere pafupi, ndipo ŵangukotama pasi.

⁸ Esau wanguti, “Ung'anamuwanji ndi mpingu wose wo ndakumana nawo?” Yakobe wangwamuka, “Kuti ndisaniye wezi pa maso gha mbuya wangu.”

⁹ Kweni Esau wanguti, “Nde navyo vyakukwana, wamhurwa wangu ujisungiye wamweni vyo we navyo.”

¹¹ Londa, nditukuŵeyere, chaulera chondaza nacho kwako, chifukwa Chiuta wandichitiya wezi, ndi chifukwa ndendi vyakukwana.” Viyo wangumuchichizga, ndi wanguvironda.

¹² Sono Esau wanguti, “Tiyeni tirutenge pa lwendo lidu, ndipo ndikadanjiyanga paurongo pako.”

¹³ Kweni Yakobe wanguti kwaku iyo, “Mbuya wangu waziŵa kuti ŵana mbakutomboloka, ndipo so ng'ombe ndi miskambu yakonkheska vyose viphwelereka ndi ine; ndipo asani vyalutilizga kwenda kwazuŵa limoza, viŵetu vyose vikafwanga.

¹⁴ Mbuya wadanjiyenge paurongo pa muŵanda wake, ndipo Ine ndikalongozganga wengu wengu kwakulingana ndi nthangara za ng'ombe zo ze paurongo pangu ndi kwakulingana ndi nthangara za ŵana, mpaka penipo ndamufika ku mbuya wangu mu Seiri.”

¹⁵ Viyo Esau wanguti, “Ndikusiyiyi ŵanthu ŵanyake wo ŵendi ine.” Kweni iyo wanguti, “Nchine cho ndisauka? Ndisaniye wezi mu maso gha mbuya wangu.”

¹⁶ Viyo zuŵa leniliya Esau ŵanguwere ku nthowa yake kuya ku Seiri.

¹⁷ Kweni Yakobe wanguya ku Sukoto ndipo wangujizenge nyumba, ndipo wanguchita makhora gha ng'ombe zake; viyo zina la malo lingudanika Sukoto.

¹⁸ Ndipo Yakobe wangufika umampha ku msumba wa Shekemu, weniwo wemu charu cha Kanani, pa lwendo lake kutuwa ku Padani-arami; wangugowa paurongo pa msumba wo.

¹⁹ Ndipo ku ŵana ŵaku Hamoro wiske waku Shekemu, wangugulako kacharu pa mtengo wa ndrama machumi pe chumi (100) penipo wangujintha hema lake.

²⁰ Penipo wanguzengapo jochero la sembe ndi wangudanapo kuti Ele-elohe-Yisraele.
