Kuba wathi, Mandimcamagushele ngomnikelo osingwayo kuqala, ndize kamva ndibubone ubuso bakhe; mhlawumbi uya kundamkela. 21Saphuma ke isipho phambi kwakhe, walala phakathi kweqela elo. 22Wavuka ngobo busuku, wathabatha abafazi bakhe bobabini, nabakhonzazana bakhe bobabini noonyana bakhe abalishumi elinamnye, wayiwela intili yeYabhoko; 23Wabathabatha, wabaseza umlambo, wazithumela nezo abenazo. 24uYakobi wasala yedwa; Yazamana indoda naye kwada kwasa. 25Yabona ukuba ayimeyisi, yachukumisa umlambo womlambo wakhe; Yatshona ingcambu yesinqe sikaYakobi ngokuzamana kwakhe naye. 26Wathi, Ndilinde, kuba ilanga liyaphuma. Wathi: Andikukhulula, awukandisikelele. 27Yathi kuye, Ungubani na igama lakho? Wathi, Yakobi! 28Wathi, Igama lakho akusayi kuba sathiwa nguYakobi; 29Wabuza uYakobi wathi, Ndixelele igama lakho. Wathi ke yena, Yini na ukuba ulibuze igama lam? wamsikelela khona. 30uYakobi wathi loo ndawo yiPeniyeli; ngokuba ndibonene noThixo, wahlangulwa umphefumlo wam. 31Uthe akudlula ePniel, lakhanya ilanga phezu kwakhe, wema esinqeni sakhe. 32Kungenxa yoko le nto oonyana bakaSirayeli bengasidli isihlunu esisethangeni loMlambo umNayile de kube namhla, ngenxa yokuba wachukumisa ithambo lomlenze kaYakobi emsipheni owomileyo.
