1 А Јаков отиде својим путем; и сретоше га анђели Божији;
1 Jacob went on his way, and the angels of God met him.
2 а кад их угледа Јаков, рече: Ово је логор Божји. И прозва оно место Маханаим.
2 When he saw them, Jacob said, “This is God’s army.” He called the name of that place Mahanaim.
3 И Јаков посла пред собом гласнике к Исаву брату свом у земљу Сир, крајину едомску.
3 Jacob sent messengers in front of him to Esau, his brother, to the land of Seir, the field of Edom.
4 И заповеди им говорећи: Овако кажите господару мом Исаву: Слуга твој Јаков овако каже: Био сам дошљак код Лавана и бавио се до сад.
4 He commanded them, saying, “This is what you shall tell my lord, Esau: ‘This is what your servant, Jacob, says. I have lived as a foreigner with Laban, and stayed until now.
5 А имам волова и магараца, оваца и слуга, и слушкиња, и послах да јавим теби господару свом, еда бих нашао милост пред тобом.
5 I have cattle, donkeys, flocks, male servants, and female servants. I have sent to tell my lord, that I may find favor in your sight.’”
6 И вратише се гласници к Јакову и рекоше му: Идосмо до брата твог Исава, и ето он ти иде на сусрет с четири стотине момака.
6 The messengers returned to Jacob, saying, “We came to your brother Esau. He is coming to meet you, and four hundred men are with him.”
7 А Јаков се уплаши јако и забрину се; па раздели своје људе и овце и говеда и камиле у две чете.
7 Then Jacob was greatly afraid and was distressed. He divided the people who were with him, along with the flocks, the herds, and the camels, into two companies.
8 И рече: Ако Исав удари на једну чету и разбије је, да ако друга утече.
8 He said, “If Esau comes to the one company, and strikes it, then the company which is left will escape.”
9 И рече Јаков: Боже оца мог Аврама и Боже оца мог Исака, Господе, који си ми казао: Врати се у земљу своју и у род свој, и ја ћу ти бити добротвор!
9 Jacob said, “God of my father Abraham, and God of my father Isaac, Yahweh, who said to me, ‘Return to your country, and to your relatives, and I will do you good,’
10 Нисам вредан толике милости и толике вере што си учинио слузи свом; јер само са штапом својим пређох преко Јордана, а сада сам господар од две чете.
10 I am not worthy of the least of all the loving kindnesses, and of all the truth, which you have shown to your servant; for with just my staff I crossed over this Jordan; and now I have become two companies.
11 Избави ме из руке брата мог, из руке Исавове, јер се бојим да не дође и убије мене и матер с децом.
11 Please deliver me from the hand of my brother, from the hand of Esau; for I fear him, lest he come and strike me and the mothers with the children.
12 А Ти си казао: Заиста ја ћу ти бити добротвор, и учинићу семе твоје да буде као песка морског, који се не може избројати од множине.
12 You said, ‘I will surely do you good, and make your offspring as the sand of the sea, which can’t be counted because there are so many.’”
13 И заноћи онде ону ноћ, и узе шта му дође до руке, да пошаље на дар Исаву брату свом,
13 He stayed there that night, and took from that which he had with him a present for Esau, his brother:
14 двеста коза с двадесет јараца, двеста оваца с двадесет овнова,
14 two hundred female goats and twenty male goats, two hundred ewes and twenty rams,
15 тридесет камила дојилица с камиладима, четрдесет крава с десеторо телади, двадесет магарица с десеторо магаради.
15 thirty milk camels and their colts, forty cows, ten bulls, twenty female donkeys and ten foals.
16 И предаде их слугама својим, свако стадо напосе, и рече слугама: Идите напред преда мном, остављајући доста места између једног стада и другог.
16 He delivered them into the hands of his servants, every herd by itself, and said to his servants, “Pass over before me, and put a space between herd and herd.”
17 И заповеди првом говорећи: Кад сретнеш Исава, брата мог, па те запита: Чији си? И куда идеш? И чије је то што гониш пред собом?
17 He commanded the foremost, saying, “When Esau, my brother, meets you, and asks you, saying, ‘Whose are you? Where are you going? Whose are these before you?’
18 А ти реци: Слуге твог Јакова, а ово шаље на дар господару свом Исаву, а ето и сам иде за нама.
18 Then you shall say, ‘They are your servant, Jacob’s. It is a present sent to my lord, Esau. Behold, he also is behind us.’”
19 Тако заповеди и другом и трећем и свима који иђаху за стадом, и рече: Тако кажите Исаву кад наиђете на њ.
19 He commanded also the second, and the third, and all that followed the herds, saying, “This is how you shall speak to Esau, when you find him.
20 И још кажите: Ето, Јаков слуга твој иде за нама. Јер говораше: Ублажићу га даром који иде преда мном, па ћу му онда видети лице, да ако ме лепо прими.
20 You shall say, ‘Not only that, but behold, your servant, Jacob, is behind us.’” For, he said, “I will appease him with the present that goes before me, and afterward I will see his face. Perhaps he will accept me.”
21 Тако отиде дар напред, а он преноћи ону ноћ код чете своје.
21 So the present passed over before him, and he himself stayed that night in the camp.
22 И по ноћи уста, и узе обе жене и две робиње и једанаесторо деце своје; и преброди брод Јавок.
22 He rose up that night, and took his two wives, and his two servants, and his eleven sons, and crossed over the ford of the Jabbok.
23 А пошто њих узе и преведе преко потока, претури и остало што имаше.
23 He took them, and sent them over the stream, and sent over that which he had.
24 А кад оста Јаков сам, тада се један човек рваше с њим до зоре.
24 Jacob was left alone, and wrestled with a man there until the breaking of the day.
25 И кад виде да га не може свладати, удари га по зглавку у стегну, те се Јакову ишчаши стегно из зглавка, кад се човек рваше с њим.
25 When he saw that he didn’t prevail against him, the man touched the hollow of his thigh, and the hollow of Jacob’s thigh was strained as he wrestled.
26 Па онда рече: Пусти ме, зора је. А Јаков му рече: Нећу те пустити докле ме не благословиш.
26 The man said, “Let me go, for the day breaks.” Jacob said, “I won’t let you go unless you bless me.”
27 А човек му рече: Како ти је име. А он одговори: Јаков.
27 He said to him, “What is your name?” He said, “Jacob”.
28 Тада му рече: Одселе се нећеш звати Јаков, него Израиљ; јер си се јуначки борио и с Богом и с људима, и одолео си.
28 He said, “Your name will no longer be called Jacob, but Israel; for you have fought with God and with men, and have prevailed.”
29 А Јаков запита и рече: Кажи ми како је теби име. А Он рече: Што питаш како ми је име? И благослови га онде.
29 Jacob asked him, “Please tell me your name.” He said, “Why is it that you ask what my name is?” So he blessed him there.
30 И Јаков надеде име оном месту Фануил; јер, вели, Бога видех лицем к лицу, и душа се моја избави.
30 Jacob called the name of the place Peniel; for he said, “I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved.”
31 И сунце му се роди кад прође Фануил, и храмаше на стегно своје.
31 The sun rose on him as he passed over Peniel, and he limped because of his thigh.
32 Зато синови Израиљеви не једу крајеве од мишића на зглавку у стегну до данашњег дана, што се Јакову повредише крајеви од мишића на зглавку у стегну.
32 Therefore the children of Israel don’t eat the sinew of the hip, which is on the hollow of the thigh, to this day, because he touched the hollow of Jacob’s thigh in the sinew of the hip.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
… eternal, and of right belongs eternally to Jerusalem the free mother, where the genuine people of Israel shall be: for this name is interpreted "Seeing God;" in the desire of which reward a pious life is to be led through faith in this miserable pilgrimage.

And said to Him, "I will not let Thee go, except Thou bless me." When the conqueror was blessed by the Conquered, Christ was figured.

But this Jacob, when he received another name, heard the same words, "Thou shalt not be called Jacob, but Israel shalt thou be called." Search the Scriptures, and see how that he was always called both, both Jacob and Israel.
