Londochile lwanda Yolodani, nandali hela chinhu ila ng'hweku hela, ila sambi ndanazo kambi mbili. 11 Ndangukulanda undohole sambi kulawa kwa mng'holozangu Esau, mina ndangudumba kota kotutowa na kutubagamiza hetwe tweng'ha, wadala hamwe na wana. 12 Hegwe nakundonjela ukomya konditila ganojile na kudita lulelo lwa heni luwe lwinji kota sangalaza ya mli bahali yohailinguwazika.”

Kwanguluta kohi? Na migongolo jino ja whaani?’ 18 Nagwe komwidichila, ‘Alu ndo lufufu lwa chitumagwa wa hegwe Yakobo, na ndo ndolendole ya hegwe mkulu wa heni Esau. Kahi Yakobo yuye ka kumbele kanguya.’ ” 19 Nakalavya ilajizo lilyo kwa chilundo cha keli na cha kadatu na wanji weng'ha yolonga, “Momlonjela Esau ulonzi wuwo lomting'hana na heye. 20 Kupuluta kwa geng'ha, momlonjela, ‘Chitumagwa wa hegwe Yakobo ka kumbele, kanguya.’ ” Yakobo nakadita ahyo yojesa, “Hanji ndomdita yasindamale kwa ndolendole ino yoilongole, hamba ndoweza kiwona meho kwa meho, hanji kombochela heni.” 21 Lelo nakalongola ndolendole ya heye, ila heye nakawika kambi.
