Genesis 33

DOUAI-RHEIMS	GREEK BIBLE
1 And Jacob lifting up his eyes, saw Esau coming, and with him four hundred men: and he divided the children of Lia, and of Rachel, and of the two handmaids:	1 Αναβλεψας δε ο Ιακωβ ειδε? και ιδου, ο Ησαυ ηρχετο, και μετ' αυτου τετρακοσιοι ανδρες? και εμοιρασεν ο Ιακωβ τα παιδια εις την Λειαν και εις την Ραχηλ και εις τας δυο θεραπαινας.
2 And he put both the handmaids and their children foremost: and Lia and her children in the second place: and Rachel and Joseph last.	2 Και τας μεν θεραπαινας και τα τεκνα αυτων εβαλεν εμπροσθεν, την δε Λειαν και τα τεκνα αυτης, κατοπιν, και την Ραχηλ και τον Ιωσηφ, τελευταιους.
3 And he went forward and bowed down with his face to the ground seven times until his brother came near.	3 Αυτος δε επερασεν εμπροσθεν αυτων και προσεκυνησεν εως εδαφους επτακις, εως να πλησιαση εις τον αδελφον αυτου.
4 Then Esau ran to meet his brother, and embraced him: and clasping him fast about the neck, and kissing him, wept.	4 Και εδραμεν ο Ησαυ εις συναντησιν αυτου και ενηγκαλισθη αυτον και επεσεν επι τον τραχηλον αυτου και κατεφιλησεν αυτον? και εκλαυσαν.
5 And lifting up his eyes, he saw the women and their children, and said: What mean these? And do they belong to thee? He answered: They are the children which God hath given to me thy servant.	5 Και αναβλεψας ειδε τας γυναικας και τα παιδια? και ειπε, Τι σου ειναι ουτοι; Ο δε ειπε τα παιδια, τα οποια εχαρισεν ο Θεος εις τον δουλον σου.
6 Then the handmaids and their children came near, and bowed themselves.	6 Τοτε επλησιασαν αι θεραπαιναι, αυται και τα τεκνα αυτων, και προσεκυνησαν?
7 Lia also with her children came near, and bowed down in like manner, and last of all Joseph and Rachel bowed down.	7 παρομοιως επλησιασαν και η Λεια και τα τεκνα αυτης, και προσεκυνησαν? και μετα ταυτα επλησιασαν ο Ιωσηφ και η Ραχηλ και προσεκυνησαν.
8 And Esau said: What are the droves that I met? He answered: That I might find favor before my lord.	8 Και ειπε, Προς τι απαν το στρατοπεδον σου τουτο, το οποιον απηντησα; Ο δε ειπε, δια να ευρω χαριν εμπροσθεν του κυριου μου.
9 But he said: I have plenty, my brother, keep what is thine for thyself.	9 Και ειπεν ο Ησαυ, Εχω πολλα, αδελφε μου? εχε συ τα ιδικα σου.
10 And Jacob said: Do not so I beseech thee, but if I have found favor in thy eyes, receive a little present at my hands: for I have seen thy face, as if I should have seen the countenance of God: be gracious to me,	10 Και ειπεν ο Ιακωβ, Ουχι, παρακαλω? εαν ευρηκα χαριν εμπροσθεν σου, δεξαι το δωρον μου εκ των χειρων μου? διοτι δια τουτο ειδον το προσωπον σου, ως εαν εβλεπον προσωπον Θεου, και συ ευηρεστηθης εις εμε?
11 And take the blessing, which I have brought thee, and which God hath given me, who giveth all things. He took it with much ado at his brother's earnest pressing him,	11 δεξαι, παρακαλω, τας ευλογιας μου, τας προσφερομενας προς σε? διοτι με ηλεησεν ο Θεος και εχω τα παντα. Και εβιασεν αυτον και εδεχθη.
12 And said: Let us go on together, and I will accompany thee in thy journey.	12 Και ειπεν, Ας σηκωθωμεν και ας υπαγωμεν, και εγω θελω προπορευεσθαι εμπροσθεν σου.
13 And Jacob said: My lord, thou knowest that I have with me tender children, and sheep, and kine with young: which if I should cause to be overdriven, in one day all the flocks will die.	13 Και ειπε προς αυτον ο Ιακωβ, Ο κυριος μου εξευρει οτι τα παιδια ειναι τρυφερα, και εχω μετ' εμου εγκυμονουντα προβατα και βοας? και εαν βιασωσιν αυτα μιαν μονην ημεραν, απαν το ποιμνιον θελει αποθανει.
14 May it please my lord to go before his servant: and I will follow softly after him, as I shall see my children to be able, until I come to my lord in Seir.	14 Ας περαση, παρακαλω, ο κυριος μου εμπροσθεν του δουλου αυτου? και εγω θελω ακολουθει βραδεως, κατα το βαδισμα των κτηνων των εμπροσθεν μου, και κατα το βαδισμα των παιδαριων, εωσου φθασω προς τον κυριον μου εις Σηειρ.
15 Esau answered: I beseech thee, that some of the people at least, who are with me, may stay to accompany thee in the way. And he said: There is no necessity: I want nothing else but only to find favor, my lord, in thy sight.	15 Και ειπεν ο Ησαυ, Ας αφησω λοιπον μετα σου μερος εκ του λαου, του μετ' εμου. Ο δε ειπε, Δια τι τουτο; αρκει οτι ευρηκα χαριν εμπροσθεν του κυριου μου.
16 So Esau returned, that day, the way that he came, to Seir.	16 Επεστρεψε λοιπον ο Ησαυ την ημεραν εκεινην εις την οδον αυτου εις Σηειρ.
17 And Jacob came to Socoth: where having built a house, and pitched tents, he called the name of the place Socoth, that is, Tents.	17 Και απηλθεν ο Ιακωβ εις Σοκχωθ, και ωκοδομησεν εις εαυτον οικιαν, και δια τα κτηνη αυτου εκαμε σκηνας? δια τουτο εκαλεσε το ονομα του τοπου Σοκχωθ.
18 And he passed over to Salem, a city of the Sichemites, which is in the land of Chanaan, after he returned from Mesopotamia of Syria: and he dwelt by the town:	18 Και αφου επεστρεψεν ο Ιακωβ απο Παδαν-αραμ, ηλθεν εις Σαλημ, πολιν Συχεμ, την εν τη γη Χανααν? και κατεσκηνωσεν εμπροσθεν της πολεως.
19 And he bought that part of the field, in which he pitched his tents, of the children of Hemor, the father of Sichem for a hundred lambs.	19 Και ηγορασε την μεριδα του αγρου, οπου εστησε την σκηνην αυτου, παρα των υιων του Εμμωρ, πατρος του Συχεμ, δι' εκατον αργυρια.
20 And raising an altar there, he invoked upon it the most mighty God of Israel.	20 Και εστησεν εκει θυσιαστηριον, και εκαλεσεν αυτο Ελ-ελωε-Ισραηλ.
