Mui 27
1 Aisage da da: idafa hamoi galu. Ea si amola da dofoi dagoi. Eso afaega e da ea magobo mano misa: ne sia: i. E da ema amane sia: i, “Nagofe!” Iso bu adole i, “Na wea!”
When Isaac was old and his eyes were so weak that he could no longer see, he called his older son Esau and said to him, “My son.” “Here I am,” Esau replied.
2 Aisage da amane sia: i, “Na da da: i hamoi dagoi. Na bogomu eso hame dawa:
“Look,” said Isaac, “I am now old, and I do not know the day of my death.
3 Dia dadi lale, sogega asili, na moma: ne sigua ohe fi afae fane legema.
Take your weapons—your quiver and bow—and go out into the field to hunt some game for me.
4 Amalalu, ha: i manu amo na hanai liligi gobelalu, nama gaguli misa. Na da amo nanu, magobo mano amoma Gode Ea hahawane dogolegele ilegema: ne defele nana sia: su, amo dima imunu.
Then prepare a tasty dish that I love and bring it to me to eat, so that I may bless you before I die.”
5 Lebega da Aisage amo Isoma sia: daloba nabi dagoi. Amaiba: le, Iso da benea ahoanoba,
Now Rebekah was listening to what Isaac told his son Esau. So when Esau went into the field to hunt game and bring it back,
6 e da Ya: igobema amane sia: i, ‘Na da wali dia ada Isoma sia: dalebe nabi. E amane sia: i,
Rebekah said to her son Jacob, “Behold, I overheard your father saying to your brother Esau,
7 ‘Sigua ohe amo na moma: ne gaguli misa. Na da amo ha: i nanu, na da bogomu gadeneiba: le, Gode ba: ma: ne dima magobo mano hahawane dogolegele ilegema: ne nana sia: imunu.’
‘Bring me some game and prepare me a tasty dish to eat, so that I may bless you in the presence of the LORD before I die.’
8 Defea! Nagofe! Nabima! Na da hou dima olelemu.
Now, my son, listen to my voice and do exactly as I tell you.
9 Di da goudi gilisisu amoga asili, goudi mano aduna sefena gala amo lama. Amo na da gobele, dia ada ea hanai ha: i manu hamomu.
Go out to the flock and bring me two choice young goats, so that I can make them into a tasty dish for your father—the kind he loves.
10 Amalalu, e moma: ne di gaguli masa. E da mae bogole, magobo mano hahawane dogolegele ilegema: ne nana sia: dima imunu.
Then take it to your father to eat, so that he may bless you before he dies.”
11 Be Ya: igobe da ea: mema bu adole i, “Di dawa: ! Iso ea gadofo da hinabo bagade gala. Be na da: i da hinabo hame.
Jacob answered his mother Rebekah, “Look, my brother Esau is a hairy man, but I am smooth-skinned.
12 Na ada da na gadofo digili ba: sea, e da na ogogoi dawa: mu. Amasea na da hahawane dogolegele ilegesu sia: mae ba: le, gagabusu aligi dagoi fawane ba: mu.
What if my father touches me? Then I would be revealed to him as a deceiver, and I would bring upon myself a curse rather than a blessing.”
13 Ea: me bu adole i, “Nagofe! Gagabui aligisu da doaga: sea, amo da dima hame be nama fawane doaga: mu. Na sia: defele hamoma. Di goudi amo nama gaguli misa.”
His mother replied, “Your curse be on me, my son. Just obey my voice and go get them for me.”
14 Amaiba: le, e da goudi lala asili, ema bu gaguli misi. Lebega da Aisage ea hanai ha: i manu gobei.
So Jacob went and got two goats and brought them to his mother, who made the tasty food his father loved.
15 Amalalu, Lebega da Iso ea abula noga: i amo da diasu ganodini dialu, amo lale, Ya: igobema idiniginisi.
And Rebekah took the finest clothes in the house that belonged to her older son Esau, and she put them on her younger son Jacob.
16 E da goudi ea gadofo amo Ya: igobe ea laboso amola ea ogomagi, amoga ligisi.
She also put the skins of the young goats on his hands and on the smooth part of his neck.
17 E da ha: i manu hedai gala, amola agi gobei Ya: igobema i.
Then she handed her son Jacob the tasty food and bread she had made.
18 Amalalu, Ya: igobe da ea adama asili, amane sia: i, “Ada!” Aisage da bu adole ba: i, “Di da na mano habola: ?”
So Jacob went to his father and said, “My father.” “Here I am!” he answered. “Which one are you, my son?”
19 Ya: igobe da bu adole i, “Na da dia magobo mano amo Iso. Na da dia hamoma: ne sia: i amo hamoi dagoi. Di wa: lefima. Hu amo na da dima gaguli misi, moma. Amasea, ada! Dia hahawane dogolegele sia: sia: musa: sia: i amo sia: ne ima.”
Jacob said to his father, “I am Esau, your firstborn. I have done as you told me. Please sit up and eat some of my game, so that you may bless me.”
20 Aisage da amane adole ba: i, “Nagofe! Di da habodane hedolodafa amo ha: i manu ba: bala: ?” Ya: igobe da bu adole i, “Dia Hina Gode da fidibiba: le, na da hedolo ba: i.”
But Isaac asked his son, “How did you ever find it so quickly, my son?” “Because the LORD your God brought it to me,” he replied.
21 Aisage da Ya: igobema amane sia: i, “Na da di digili ba: musa: , gadenene misa. Di da dafawane Isola: ?”
Then Isaac said to Jacob, “Please come closer so I can touch you, my son. Are you really my son Esau, or not?”
22 Ya: igobe da ea ada gadenene misi. Aisage da ea gadofo digili ba: lalu, amane sia: i, “Dia sia: da Ya: igobe ea sia: defele naba, be dia laboso da Iso ea laboso defele digili ba: sa.”
So Jacob came close to his father Isaac, who touched him and said, “The voice is the voice of Jacob, but the hands are the hands of Esau.”
23 Ya: igobe ea laboso da hinabo bagade Iso ea laboso defele amo dawa: beba: le, e da lelu dunu da Ya: igobe hame dawa: i galu. E da ema Gode da hahawane dogolegele fidima: ne magobo mano nana sia: defei imunusa: dawa: i.
Isaac did not recognize him, because his hands were hairy like those of his brother Esau; so he blessed him.
24 Be e bu adole ba: i, “Di da dafawane Isola: ?” “Ma,” Ya: igobe bu adole i.
Again he asked, “Are you really my son Esau?” And he replied, “I am.”
25 Aisage da amane sia: i, “Ohe hu afae nama gaguli misa. Amo nanu na da dima hahawane dogolegele misa: ne hou sia: imunu.” Ya: igobe da amo ha: i manu gaguli misi amola waini hano gaguli misi.
“Serve me,” said Isaac, “and let me eat some of my son’s game, so that I may bless you.” Jacob brought it to him, and he ate; then he brought him wine, and he drank.
26 Amalalu, ea ada da ema amane sia: i, “Gadenene misa, nagofe! Nama nonogoma!”
Then his father Isaac said to him, “Please come near and kiss me, my son.”
27 E da nonogomusa: manoba, Aisage da ea abula naba ba: i. E da ema hahawane dogolegele misa: ne hou nana sia: sia: i dagoi. E amane sia: i, “Na mano ea naba ba: su da gisi soge amo Gode da hahawane hamoi, amo ea gabusiga: defele gala.
So he came near and kissed him. When Isaac smelled his clothing, he blessed him and said: “Ah, the smell of my son is like the smell of a field that the LORD has blessed.
28 Gode da dima hebene doasili, oubi baea dima imunu da defea. E da dia soge osobo amo ha: i manu bagade heda: ma: ne hahamomu. E da gagoma amola waini hano bagohame dima imunu da defea.
May God give to you the dew of heaven and the richness of the earth— an abundance of grain and new wine.
29 Dunu fifi asi gala da dima hawa: hamosu dunu ba: mu da defea. Dunu huluane da dima begudumu, amola di da dia fi dunu ilima hinawane esalumu. Dia: me ea mano da dima begudumu da defea. Dunu da dima gagabusu aligima: ne sia: sea, ilima gagabusu aligimu da defea, amola nowa da dima hahawane dogolegele sia: sea, ilia amola da hahawane dogolegele iasu ba: mu da defea.”
May peoples serve you and nations bow down to you. May you be the master of your brothers, and may the sons of your mother bow down to you. May those who curse you be cursed, and those who bless you be blessed.”
30 Aisage da Ya: igobema hahawane dogolegele magobo mano nana misa: ne sia: i dagoi. Amanoba, Ya: igobe da yolesili asi. Amola Iso da benea ahoanu, misi dagoi.
As soon as Isaac had finished blessing him and Jacob had left his father’s presence, his brother Esau returned from the hunt.
31 E amola da ha: i manu ida: iwane gobele, ea adama gaguli misi. E da adama amane sia: i, “Di wa: lefima! Hu amo na da dima gaguli misi moma! Amasea, ada dia hahawane dogolegele sia: sia: musa: nana sia: i amo sia: ne ima.”
He too made some tasty food, brought it to his father, and said to him, “My father, sit up and eat of your son’s game, so that you may bless me.”
32 Aisage da amane adole ba: i, “Di da nowala: ?” E da bu adole i, “Na da dia magobo mano Iso.”
But his father Isaac replied, “Who are you?” “I am Esau, your firstborn son,” he answered.
33 Aisage da bagade yaguguli, amane adole ba: i, “Amaiba: le, nowa da ohe medole, nama gaguli misibala: ? Wahadafa, di mae misini na da mai dagoi. Na da magobo mano hahawane dogolegele nana sia: ema iabeba: le, amo da mae yolesili dialalalumu.”
Isaac began to tremble violently and said, “Who was it, then, who hunted the game and brought it to me? Before you came in, I ate it all and blessed him—and indeed, he will be blessed!”
34 Amo nabaloba, Iso da digini wele sia: i, “Ada! Dia hahawane dogolegele misa: ne nana sia: nama amola ima!”
When Esau heard his father’s words, he let out a loud and bitter cry and said to his father, “Bless me too, O my father!”
35 Be Aisage da bu adole i, “Diaeya da misini nama ogogoi dagoi. E da dia hahawane dogolegele misa: ne hou nana sia: amo wamolai dagoi.”
But Isaac replied, “Your brother came deceitfully and took your blessing.”
36 Iso da amane sia: i, “E da musa: amola wali nama ogogoi. Ea dio da Ya: igobe (ogogosu gagusu) dafawane. E na magobo mano nana liligi amo lai amola wali e da nama hahawane dogolegele misa: ne sia: amo wamolai dagoi. Di da hahawane dogolegele misa: ne hou sia: afadafa nama ima: ne ganabela: ?”
So Esau declared, “Is he not rightly named Jacob? For he has cheated me twice. He took my birthright, and now he has taken my blessing.” Then he asked, “Haven’t you saved a blessing for me?”
37 Aisage e bu adole i, “Na da e amo dima hina hamoi dagoi amola ea fi ema udigili hawa: hamosu dunu esaloma: ne, na hamoi dagoi. Na da gagoma amola waini hano ema i dagoi. Na dima eno imunu hamedei ba: sa.”
But Isaac answered Esau: “Look, I have made him your master and given him all his relatives as servants; I have sustained him with grain and new wine. What is left that I can do for you, my son?”
38 Iso da mae yolesili, Aisagema edegelalu. “Ada! Hahawane dogolegele misa: ne hou sia: afadafa nama ima! Di da afadafa fawane gaguila: ?” E muni dinanu.
Esau said to his father, “Do you have only one blessing, my father? Bless me too, O my father!” Then Esau wept aloud.
39 Amalalu, Aisage ema amane sia: i, “Dia da mu amoga oubi baea hame ba: mu. Ha: i manu soge noga: i hame ba: mu.
His father Isaac answered him: “Behold, your dwelling place shall be away from the richness of the land, away from the dew of heaven above.
40 Di da gobihei bagadega gegesea fawane ha: i manu amola esalebe diasu amola ba: mu. Di da diaeya amo ea udigili hawa: hamosu dunu ba: mu. Be di da ea sia: mae nabawane odoga: sea, ea ouligisu yolesimu.”
You shall live by the sword and serve your brother. But when you rebel, you will tear his yoke from your neck.”
41 Aisage da Ya: igobema hahawane dogolegele misa: ne hou sia: i dagoiba: le, Iso da Ya: igobe bagade higasu. E amane dawa: i, “Na ada ea bogomu da gadenei. Amasea, ema asigi didiga: su dagosea, na da Ya: igobe fane legemu.”
Esau held a grudge against Jacob because of the blessing his father had given him. And Esau said in his heart, “The days of mourning for my father are at hand; then I will kill my brother Jacob.”
42 Be Lebega da Iso ea ilegesu nabaloba, e da Ya: igobe misa: ne sia: ne, ema amane sia: i, “Nabima! Dia ola Iso da dima dabemu. E da di fane legemusa: dawa: lala.
When the words of her older son Esau were relayed to Rebekah, she sent for her younger son Jacob and told him, “Look, your brother Esau is consoling himself by plotting to kill you.
43 Nagofe! Na sia: noga: le nabima! Di da na ola La: iba: ne, ea diasu amo Halane soge ganodini diala, amoga masa.
So now, my son, obey my voice and flee at once to my brother Laban in Haran.
44 Dia ola ea ougi amo gumima: ne, La: iba: ne ea diasuga ouesaloma.
Stay with him for a while, until your brother’s fury subsides—
45 Dia ola da di da ema hamoi gogolesea, na da di guiguda: oule misa: ne, dunu eno dima asunasimu. Na da na mano aduna eso afae amo ganodini fisimu bagadewane higasa.”
until your brother’s rage against you wanes and he forgets what you have done to him. Then I will send for you and bring you back from there. Why should I lose both of you in one day?”
46 Lebega da Aisagema amane sia: i, “Na da Iso ea ga fi uda lai amo ela houga bagade helebe. Ya: igobe da amo Hidaide uda lasea, na da bogomu da defea.”
Then Rebekah said to Isaac, “I am weary of my life because of these Hittite women. If Jacob takes a Hittite wife from among them, what good is my life?”
