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!”
And it came to pass, that when Isaac was old, and his eyes were dim, so that he could not see, he called Esau his eldest son, and said unto him, My son: and he said unto him, Behold, [here am] I.
2 Aisage da amane sia: i, “Na da da: i hamoi dagoi. Na bogomu eso hame dawa:
And he said, Behold now, I am old, I know not the day of my death:
3 Dia dadi lale, sogega asili, na moma: ne sigua ohe fi afae fane legema.
Now therefore take, I pray thee, thy weapons, thy quiver and thy bow, and go out to the field, and take me [some] venison;
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.
And make me savoury meat, such as I love, and bring [it] to me, that I may eat; that my soul may bless thee before I die.
5 Lebega da Aisage amo Isoma sia: daloba nabi dagoi. Amaiba: le, Iso da benea ahoanoba,
And Rebekah heard when Isaac spake to Esau his son. And Esau went to the field to hunt [for] venison, [and] to bring [it].
6 e da Ya: igobema amane sia: i, ‘Na da wali dia ada Isoma sia: dalebe nabi. E amane sia: i,
And Rebekah spake unto Jacob her son, saying, Behold, I heard thy father speak unto Esau thy brother, saying,
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 venison, and make me savoury meat, that I may eat, and bless thee before the LORD before my death.
8 Defea! Nagofe! Nabima! Na da hou dima olelemu.
Now therefore, my son, obey my voice according to that which I command thee.
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 now to the flock, and fetch me from thence two good kids of the goats; and I will make them savoury meat for thy father, such as he loveth:
10 Amalalu, e moma: ne di gaguli masa. E da mae bogole, magobo mano hahawane dogolegele ilegema: ne nana sia: dima imunu.
And thou shalt bring [it] to thy father, that he may eat, and that he may bless thee before his death.
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.
And Jacob said to Rebekah his mother, Behold, Esau my brother [is] a hairy man, and I [am] a smooth man:
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.
My father peradventure will feel me, and I shall seem to him as a deceiver; and I shall bring a curse upon me, and not 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.”
And his mother said unto him, Upon me [be] thy curse, my son: only obey my voice, and go fetch me [them].
14 Amaiba: le, e da goudi lala asili, ema bu gaguli misi. Lebega da Aisage ea hanai ha: i manu gobei.
And he went, and fetched, and brought [them] to his mother: and his mother made savoury meat, such as 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 goodly raiment of her eldest son Esau, which [were] with her in the house, and put them upon Jacob her younger son:
16 E da goudi ea gadofo amo Ya: igobe ea laboso amola ea ogomagi, amoga ligisi.
And she put the skins of the kids of the goats upon his hands, and upon the smooth of his neck:
17 E da ha: i manu hedai gala, amola agi gobei Ya: igobema i.
And she gave the savoury meat and the bread, which she had prepared, into the hand of her son Jacob.
18 Amalalu, Ya: igobe da ea adama asili, amane sia: i, “Ada!” Aisage da bu adole ba: i, “Di da na mano habola: ?”
And he came unto his father, and said, My father: and he said, Here [am] I; who [art] thou, 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.”
And Jacob said unto his father, I [am] Esau thy firstborn; I have done according as thou badest me: arise, I pray thee, sit and eat of my venison, that thy soul 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.”
And Isaac said unto his son, How [is it] that thou hast found [it] so quickly, my son? And he said, Because the LORD thy God brought [it] to me.
21 Aisage da Ya: igobema amane sia: i, “Na da di digili ba: musa: , gadenene misa. Di da dafawane Isola: ?”
And Isaac said unto Jacob, Come near, I pray thee, that I may feel thee, my son, whether thou [be] my very 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.”
And Jacob went near unto Isaac his father; and he felt him, and said, The voice [is] Jacob’s voice, 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.
And he discerned him not, because his hands were hairy, as his brother Esau’s hands: so he blessed him.
24 Be e bu adole ba: i, “Di da dafawane Isola: ?” “Ma,” Ya: igobe bu adole i.
And he said, [Art] thou my very son Esau? And he said, 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.
And he said, Bring [it] near to me, and I will eat of my son’s venison, that my soul may bless thee. And he brought [it] near to him, and he did eat: and he brought him wine, and he drank.
26 Amalalu, ea ada da ema amane sia: i, “Gadenene misa, nagofe! Nama nonogoma!”
And his father Isaac said unto him, Come near now, 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.
And he came near, and kissed him: and he smelled the smell of his raiment, and blessed him, and said, See, the smell of my son [is] as the smell of a field which the LORD hath 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.
Therefore God give thee of the dew of heaven, and the fatness of the earth, and plenty of corn and 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.”
Let people serve thee, and nations bow down to thee: be lord over thy brethren, and let thy mother’s sons bow down to thee: cursed [be] every one that curseth thee, and blessed [be] he that blesseth thee.
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.
And it came to pass, as soon as Isaac had made an end of blessing Jacob, and Jacob was yet scarce gone out from the presence of Isaac his father, that Esau his brother came in from his hunting.
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.”
And he also had made savoury meat, and brought it unto his father, and said unto his father, Let my father arise, and eat of his son’s venison, that thy soul may bless me.
32 Aisage da amane adole ba: i, “Di da nowala: ?” E da bu adole i, “Na da dia magobo mano Iso.”
And Isaac his father said unto him, Who [art] thou? And he said, I [am] thy son, thy firstborn Esau.
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.”
And Isaac trembled very exceedingly, and said, Who? where [is] he that hath taken venison, and brought [it] me, and I have eaten of all before thou camest, and have blessed him? yea, [and] he shall be blessed.
34 Amo nabaloba, Iso da digini wele sia: i, “Ada! Dia hahawane dogolegele misa: ne nana sia: nama amola ima!”
And when Esau heard the words of his father, he cried with a great and exceeding bitter cry, and said unto his father, Bless me, [even] me also, 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.”
And he said, Thy brother came with subtilty, and hath taken away thy 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: ?”
And he said, Is not he rightly named Jacob? for he hath supplanted me these two times: he took away my birthright; and, behold, now he hath taken away my blessing. And he said, Hast thou not reserved 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.”
And Isaac answered and said unto Esau, Behold, I have made him thy lord, and all his brethren have I given to him for servants; and with corn and wine have I sustained him: and what shall I do now unto thee, 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.
And Esau said unto his father, Hast thou but one blessing, my father? bless me, [even] me also, O my father. And Esau lifted up his voice, and wept.
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.
And Isaac his father answered and said unto him, Behold, thy dwelling shall be the fatness of the earth, and of the dew of heaven from 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.”
And by thy sword shalt thou live, and shalt serve thy brother; and it shall come to pass when thou shalt have the dominion, that thou shalt break his yoke from off thy 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.”
And Esau hated Jacob because of the blessing wherewith his father blessed him: and Esau said in his heart, The days of mourning for my father are at hand; then will I slay 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.
And these words of Esau her elder son were told to Rebekah: and she sent and called Jacob her younger son, and said unto him, Behold, thy brother Esau, as touching thee, doth comfort himself, [purposing] to kill thee.
43 Nagofe! Na sia: noga: le nabima! Di da na ola La: iba: ne, ea diasu amo Halane soge ganodini diala, amoga masa.
Now therefore, my son, obey my voice; and arise, flee thou to Laban my brother to Haran;
44 Dia ola ea ougi amo gumima: ne, La: iba: ne ea diasuga ouesaloma.
And tarry with him a few days, until thy brother’s fury turn away;
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 thy brother’s anger turn away from thee, and he forget [that] which thou hast done to him: then I will send, and fetch thee from thence: why should I be deprived also of you both 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.”
And Rebekah said to Isaac, I am weary of my life because of the daughters of Heth: if Jacob take a wife of the daughters of Heth, such as these [which are] of the daughters of the land, what good shall my life do me?
