³Ipapo Baba vedu vakati kuna Jakobho, “Dzokera kunyika yamadzibaba ako nokumhuri yako; ndichava newe.”

⁴Saka Jakobho akatuma shoko akadana Rakeri naRea kuti vauye kusango, kuboka rake rezvipfuwo. ⁵Akati kwavari, “Ndinoona kuti chiso chababa venyu hachisisina kunanga kwandiri sapakutanga, asi Mwari wababa vangu akaramba aineni. ⁶Munoziva kuti ndakashandira baba venyu nesimba rangu rose. ⁷Baba venyu vakandinyengera, vachichinja mubhadharo wangu kagumi, asi Baba vedu havana kuvatendera kuti vandikuvadze. ⁸Kana vakati, ‘Zvine mavara ndiwo mubhadharo wako,’ boka rose raibereka zvine mavara; kana vakati, ‘Zvine mitsetse ndiwo mubhadharo wako,’ boka rose raibereka zvine mitsetse. ⁹Saka Baba vedu vakatora zvipfuwo zvababa venyu vakazvipa kwandiri. ¹⁰Ndakasimudza meso mukurota panguva yokukwirana kweboka ndikaona nhongo dzaikwira makwai dzine mitsetse, nemavara, nemadonhwe. ¹¹Mutumwa waBaba akati kwandiri mukurota, ‘Jakobho,’ ini ndikati, ‘Ndiri pano.’ ¹²Akati, ‘Simudza meso uone: nhongo dzose dziri kukwira boka dzine mitsetse, nemadonhwe, nemavara—nokuti ndaona zvose zviri kuitwa naRabhani kwauri. ¹³Ndini Baba veBheteri, uko kwawakazodza mbiru ukandipikira mhiko. Zvino simuka, ibva munyika ino, udzokere kunyika yehama dzako.’”

¹⁴Rakeri naRea vakapindura vakati, “Tichine mugove kana nhaka here mumba mababa vedu? ¹⁵Havationi savatorwa here? Vakatitengesa uye vakapedza chose mari yedu zvakare. ¹⁶Zvose Baba vedu zvavakatora kuna Rabhani ndezvedu nezvavana vedu. Zvino ita zvose Baba vedu zvavakakuudza.”

¹⁷Saka Jakobho akasimuka akakwidza vanakomana vake navakadzi vake pangamera. ¹⁸Akatora zvipfuwo zvake zvose nepfuma yake yose yaakanga awana, zvipfuwo zvaakawana muPadhani-aramu, kuti aende kuna Isaka baba vake kunyika yeKenani. ¹⁹Rabhani akanga aenda kundoveura makwai ake, Rakeri akaba zvifananidzo zvomumba mababa vake. ²⁰Jakobho akanyengera Rabhani muAramu nokusamuudza kuti akanga ava kutiza. ²¹Akatiza nezvose zvaaiva nazvo, akasimuka, akayambuka Rwizi Yufuratesi, akananga kunyika yamakomo yeGireadhi.

²⁴Asi Baba vedu vakauya kuna Rabhani muAramu mukurota usiku vakati, “Chenjera kuti urege kutaura naJakobho, chakanaka kana chakaipa.”

²⁵Rabhani akabata Jakobho. Zvino Jakobho akanga adzika tende rake mumakomo; Rabhani nehama dzake vakadzikawo matende avo mumakomo eGireadhi. ²⁶Rabhani akati kuna Jakobho, “Waiteiko? Wandinyengera ukatinha vanasikana vangu senhapwa dzehondo. ²⁷Wakatizirei muchivande uchindinyengera, usina kundiudza? Ndingadai ndakakuperekedza nomufaro, nenziyo, nengoma, norudimbwa. ²⁸Wakaregerei kundibvumira kuti nditsvode vanakomana vangu navanasikana vangu pandinovaonekera? Zvino waita noupenzi.

²⁹Ndine simba rokukukuvadza, asi Mwari wababa vako akandiudza nezuro usiku achiti: ‘Chenjera—usataura chinhu kuna Jakobho, chakanaka kana chakaipa.’

³⁰Zvino waenda zvechokwadi nokuti wakashuva kwazvo imba yababa vako—saka wabirei vamwari vangu?”

³¹Jakobho akapindura Rabhani akati, “Ndakanga ndichitya, nokuti ndakafunga kuti mungandibvutira vanasikana venyu. ³²Uyo wamunomuwana aine vamwari venyu ngaafe. Pamberi pehama dzedu, taridzai chipi nechipi chenyu chiri kwandiri, mochitora.” Jakobho akanga asingazivi kuti Rakeri akanga avaba.

³³Rabhani akatsvaka mutende raJakobho, nomutende raRea, nomutende ravarandakadzi vaviri, asi haana kuwana chinhu. Akabuda mutende raRea akapinda mutende raRakeri. ³⁴Rakeri akanga atora zvifananidzo zvomumba, akazviisa muchigaro chengamera, akagara pamusoro pazvo. Rabhani akatsvaka mutende rose asi haana kuwana chinhu. ³⁵Akati kuna baba vake, “Musatsamwa, ishe wangu—handigoni kusimuka pamberi penyu; ndava kumwedzi.” Akatsvaka asi haana kuwana zvifananidzo zvomumba.

³⁶Jakobho akatsamwa akakakavadzana naRabhani. Jakobho akapindura Rabhani akati, “Mhosva yangu chii? Chivi changu chii, zvamanditevera nehasha kudai? ³⁷Matsvaka nhumbi dzangu dzose—chii chamawana chinobva mumba menyu? Chiisei pano pamberi pehama dzangu nedzenyu; ngavatonge pakati pedu tose.

³⁸Kwemakore makumi maviri ndakagara nemi: makwaikadzi enyu nembudzikadzi hadzina kusvodza, uye handina kudya makondohwe eboka renyu. ³⁹Mhuka dzakabvarurwa nezvikara handina kumbouya nadzo kwamuri; ndakatakura kurasikirwa ndoga. Maindibhadharisa, dzingava dzakabiwa masikati kana dzakabiwa usiku. ⁴⁰Ndakagara kudai: masikati ndaipedzwa nokupisa kwezuva, uye usiku ndaitonhorwa nechando, uye hope dzaitiza pameso angu. ⁴¹Makore makumi maviri ndakagara mumba menyu—gumi namana ndichishandira vanasikana venyu vaviri, matanhatu ndichishandira boka renyu—uye makachinja mubhadharo wangu kagumi. ⁴²Dai Mwari wababa vangu, Mwari waAbhurahama, noKutya kwaIsaka akanga asina kuva neni, zvirokwazvo mungadai makandiendesa ndisina chinhu izvozvi. Baba vedu vakaona kutambudzika kwangu nokushanda kwamaoko angu, uye vakakuyambirai nezuro usiku.” ^a a v42 Zita rokuti “Kutya kwaIsaka” izita chairo raJakobho rokureva Baba vedu — Mwari uyo baba vake Isaka vaikudza nokutya kukuru kwesungano. Kudana Baba nenzira iyi kunoreva kuvadana uchivatarisa nameso omwanakomana akatendeka.

⁴³Rabhani akapindura Jakobho akati, “Vanasikana ndevangu, vana ndevangu, maboka ndeangu—zvose zvaunoona ndezvangu. Asi nhasi ndingaitei kuvanasikana vangu, kana kuvana vavakabereka? ⁴⁴Uya, ngatiite sungano, iwe neni; ngaive chapupu pakati pako neni.”

⁴⁵Saka Jakobho akatora ibwe akarimisa sembiru. ⁴⁶Jakobho akati kuhama dzake, “Unganidzai mabwe.” Vakatora mabwe, vakaita murwi, vakadya ipapo pedyo nomurwi. ⁴⁷Rabhani akautumidza kuti Jegari-sahadhuta, asi Jakobho akautumidza kuti Garidhi. ⁴⁸Rabhani akati, “Murwi uyu chapupu pakati pako neni nhasi.” Naizvozvo akautumidza kuti Garidhi, ⁴⁹uye Mizipa, nokuti akati, “Mwari ngaarinde pakati pangu newe kana tava kure. ⁵⁰Kana ukabata zvakaipa vanasikana vangu kana ukawana vamwe vakadzi kunze kwavo, kunyange pasina mumwe munhu pano, Mwari ndiye chapupu pakati pako neni.” ⁵¹Rabhani akati kuna Jakobho, “Tarira murwi uyu nembiru iyi yandaisa pakati pako neni. ⁵²Murwi uyu chapupu, uye mbiru iyi chapupu: handingadariki murwi uyu kuti ndiuye kwauri kuzokukuvadza, newe haungadariki murwi uyu nembiru iyi kuti uuye kwandiri kuzondikuvadza. ⁵³Mwari waAbhurahama naMwari waNahori, Mwari wababa vavo, ngaatonge pakati pedu.” Saka Jakobho akapika noKutya kwababa vake Isaka. ⁵⁴Jakobho akabayira chibayiro pagomo, akadana hama dzake kuti vadye chingwa; vakadya chingwa, vakarara usiku pagomo. ⁵⁵Rabhani akamuka mangwanani-ngwanani, akatsvoda vazukuru vake navanasikana vake, akavaropafadza, akaenda, akadzokera kumba kwake.
