Suencuek 27
1 Tedae Isaak te a patong vaengah a mik hmang tih tueng pa pawh. Te vaengah a capa a ham Esau te a khue tih, “Ka capa,” a ti nah hatah a taengah, “Kai ni he,” a ti nah.
And it came to pass that Isaac, was old, and his eyes became too dim to see, so he called Esau his elder son and said unto him My son! And he said unto him, Behold me!
2 Te phoeiah, “Ka patong coeng tih ka dueknah khohnin khaw ka ming moenih he.
And he said, Behold, I pray thee, I am old, —I know not the day of my death.
3 Te dongah na hnopai, na liva neh na lii te lo laeh. Te phoeiah pong ah cet lamtah kai ham lampu sakah han yuep laeh.
Now, therefore, take I pray thee, thy weapons, thy quiver and thy bow, and go out to the field, and catch for me game;
4 Te phoeiah ka ngaih vanbangla kai ham antui saii lamtah ka taengla han khuen. Ka ca saeh lamtah ka hinglu loh ka duek hlan ah nang te yoethen kan pae eh?,” a ti nah.
and make for me dainty meats, such as I love and bring in to me, that I may eat, —To the end my soul may bless thee, ere yet I die!
5 Isaak loh a capa Esau taengah a thui vaengah Rebekah loh a yaak. Te dongah Esau tah pong ah maeh loh ham saa yuep la cet.
Now, Rebekah, was hearkening, when Isaac spake unto Esau his son, and Esau went his way to the field, to catch game, to bring in.
6 Te vaengah Rebekah loh a capa Jakob te a uen tih, “Na pa loh na maya Esau te a voek coeng ne.
Rebekah, therefore spake unto Jacob her son saying, —Lo! I heard thy father, speaking unto Esau thy brother, saying,
7 'Sakah te kai taengah han khuen lamtah kai ham antui saii laeh. Te phoeiah ka ca saeh lamtah ka duek hlan ah BOEIPA hmuh ah nang yoethen kan pae eh,’ a ti nah te ka yaak coeng he.
Bring in for me game and make for me dainty meats, that I may eat; and let me bless thee in the presence of Yahweh before my death.
8 Te dongah ka ca, kai loh nang kan uen bangla ka ol he ngai laeh.
Now, therefore my son, hearken unto my voice, —in that which I am commanding thee:
9 Boiva taengla cet lamtah maae ca a then panit te kamah taengla han khuen laeh. Te phoeiah na pa ham a ngaih bangla antui ka saii eh.
Go, I pray thee, unto the flock, and fetch me from thence two kids of the goats, fine ones, —that I may make of them dainty meats for thy father such as he loveth:
10 Te phoeiah na pa taengla khuen lamtah ca saeh. Te nen te a duek hlan ah nang te yoethen m'paesaeh,” a ti nah.
Then shalt thou take them in unto thy father and he shall eat, —To the end he may bless thee before his death.
11 Tedae Jakob loh a manu Rebekah taengah, “Ka maya Esau tah mulsui hlang tih kai tah sahnal hlang ni he.
And Jacob said unto Rebekah his mother, Lo! Esau my brother, is a hairy man, whereas, I, am a smooth man:
12 A pa loh kai te m'phatuem khaming, a mik ah laithae la ka om vetih kai soah rhunkhuennah thoeng koinih yoethennah moenih,” a ti nah.
peradventure my father might feel me, then should I be in his eyes as one that mocketh, —and should bring upon myself a reproach, and not a blessing!
13 Tedae a manu loh anih taengah, “Ka capa nang sokah rhunkhuennah te kai soah tla saeh. Kai ol he duem ngai laeh. Te dongah cet lamtah kamah taengla hang khuen,” a ti nah.
And his mother said to him, Upon me, be thy reproach my son, —only hearken unto my voice and go fetch [them] for me.
14 Te dongah cet tih a loh phoeiah a manu taengla a khuen. Te vaengah a manu loh a napa kah a ngaih bangla antui a saii pah.
So he went, and fetched [them], and brought them in to his mother, and his mother made dainty meats, such as his father loved.
15 Te phoeiah Rebekah loh a capa a ham Esau kah himbai then te, im ah a loh tih a ca noe Jakob te a bai sak.
Then took Rebekah the garments of Esau her elder son, the costly ones, which were with her in the house, —and put them on Jacob her younger son:
16 Te phoeiah maae ca kah a vin te a kut neh a rhawn kah a sahnal soah a dah pah.
and the, skins of the kids of the goats, put she upon his hands, —and on the smooth part of his neck;
17 Te phoeiah antui neh buh a saii te a capa Jakob kut ah a doe.
then placed she the dainty meats and the bread, which she had made ready, in the hand of Jacob her son.
18 Te phoeiah a napa taengla cet tih, “A pa,” a ti nah hatah, “Kai ni he, ka ca nang he unim?” a ti nah.
So he went in unto his father, and said My father! And he said Behold me! who art, thou, my son?
19 Tedae Jakob loh a napa taengah, “Kai he na caming Esau ni. Kai taengah nan thui bangla ka saii coeng. Thoo lamtah, ngol laeh. Ka sakah he ca lamtah na hinglu loh kai he yoethen paek saeh,” a ti nah.
And Jacob said unto his father I, am Esau thy firstborn, I have made ready, as thou didst bid me. Rise, I pray thee, sit up, and eat thou of my game, To the end thy soul may bless me.
20 Tedae Isaak loh a capa te, “Ka ca metlam lae hekah he koe na hmuh lah,” a ti nah. Te dongah, “Na Pathen BOEIPA loh kai ham a thoeng sak dongah ni,” a ti nah.
Then said Isaac unto his son. How is it thou hast been so quick in finding, my son? And he said, Because Yahweh thy God caused it so to fall out before me.
21 Te dongah Isaak loh Jakob te, “Bet ha thoeih lamtah ka ca nang te, ka ca Esau taktak neh taktak pawt a khaw kan yam lah eh,” a ti nah.
Then said Isaac unto Jacob. Come near, I pray thee, that I may feel thee my son—whether, thou thyself, art my son Esau, or not.
22 Te dongah Jakob loh a napa Isaak taengla thoeih tih a phatuem vaengah, “Ol tah Jakob ol dae a kut tah Esau kut,” a ti nah.
So Jacob came near unto Isaac his father, and he felt him; then said he the voice is the voice of Jacob; But, the hands, are the hands of Esau.
23 Tedae a kut te a maya Esau kut phek, mulsui la a om dongah anih te hmat pawt tih yoethen a paek.
So he did not find him out, because, his hands were like the hands of Esau his brother hairy, —so he blessed him.
24 Te vaengah, “Nang he ka ca Esau taktak a?” a ti nah hatah, “Kai ni ue,” a ti nah.
And he said, Thou thyself, art my son Esau? And he said, I am!
25 Te dongah, “Kai taengla han thoeih lamtah ka ca kah sakah te ka ca eh. Ka hinglu loh nang yoethen m'pae saeh,” a ti nah. Te phoeiah a taengla a thoeih pah. Te vaengah a caak phoeiah misurtui khaw a khuen pah tih a ok.
So he said, Bring it near to me., that I may eat of the game of my son, To the end my soul may bless thee. And he brought it near to him, and he did eat, and he brought in to him wine, and he drank.
26 Te phoeiah a napa Isaak loh anih te, “Ka ca bet ha thoeih lamtah kai m'mok,” a ti nah.
Then Isaac his father said unto him, —Come thou near I pray thee and kiss me my son.
27 Te dongah thoeih tih a mok. Te vaengah a himbai bo te a him pah tih yoethen a paek. Te phoeiah, “So lah, ka capa bo he, BOEIPA loh yoethen a paek khohmuen bo bangla om.
So he came near, and kissed him, and he smelled the smell of his garments and blessed him, —and said. See! the smell of my son, As the smell of a field, which Yahweh hath blessed;
28 Te dongah Pathen loh nang taengah vaan lamkah buemtui khaw, diklai khuehtawn khaw, cangpai cungkuem neh misur thai khaw m'pae saeh.
Then, may God give thee of the dew of the heavens, And of the fatness of the earth, —And abundance of corn and new wine:
29 Pilnam rhoek loh nang taengah thotat uh saeh lamtah, namtu loh nang taengah bakuep khaw bakuep saeh. Na pacaboeina rhoek taengah boei la om lamtah na manu ca rhoek loh nang taengah bakop uh saeh. Nang thae aka phoei thil tah thaephoei thil saeh. Nang yoethen aka pae te yoethen pae saeh,” a ti nah.
Let peoples serve thee And races bow down to thee, Become thou lord to thy brethren, And let the sons of thy mother bow down to thee, —He that curseth thee, be accursed! And he that blesseth thee, be blessed!
30 Tedae Isaak loh Jakob yoethen a paek te a khah van neh Jakob tah a napa Isaak mikhmuh lamloh nong tih vawl cet. Te phoeiah a maya Esau te a sakah nah lamkah tloep pai.
And it came to pass as soon as Isaac had made an end of blessing Jacob, —yea it came to pass when Jacob, had only just gone forth, from the presence of Isaac his father, that Esau his brother, came in from his hunting.
31 Anih long khaw antui a saii van tih a napa taengla a khuen. Te phoeiah a napa te, “A pa thoo lamtah na capa kah sakah he ca laeh. Na hinglu loh kai yoethen m'pae saeh,” a ti nah.
Then, he too, made dainty meats, and brought in to his father, —and said to his father, Let my father rise that he may eat of the game of his son, To the end thy soul may bless me!
32 Tedae anih te a napa Isaak loh, “Nang ulae?” a ti nah hatah, “Kai, na capa na caming Esau ni,” a ti nah.
And Isaac his father said to him Who art, thou? And he said, I, am thy son thy firstborn, Esau.
33 Te dongah Isaak tah thuennah neh a nah la mat lakueng tih, “Saa a yuep phoeiah kai taengla aka khuen te ulae? Na lo hlan ah boeih ka caak tih anih te yoethen ka paek dongah a yoethen ngawn coeng,” a ti nah.
Then did Isaac tremble with an exceeding great trembling, and said Who then was it that caught game and brought in to me and I did eat of all ere yet thou didst come in and I blessed him? Yea blessed, shall he remain!
34 Esau loh a napa kah olka te a yaak tih a len la pangngawlnah neh hluthlut mat pang. A napa taengah, “A pa, kai khaw yoethen m'pae,” a ti nah.
When Esau heard the words of his father, then cried he out with an outcry loud and bitter exceedingly, —and said to his father, Bless even me also, O my father!
35 Tedae, “Na mana te thailatnah neh halo tih nang kah yoethennah a loh coeng,” a ti nah.
Then he said, Thy brother came in with deceit, —and took away thy blessing.
36 Te dongah Esau loh, “A ming khaw Jakob la a khue pai. Te dongah ni a pabae la kai n'rhim tih kai kah caminghamsum te a loh. Te phoeiah kai kah yoethennah a loh coeng he,” a ti. Te phoeiah, “Kai ham tah yoethennah na paih pawt nim?,” a ti nah.
And he said, Is it because his name, is called, Jacob, that he hath tricked me, now twice? My birthright, he took away, And lo! now, he hath taken away my blessing! And he said, Hast thou not reserved for me a blessing?
37 Tedae Isaak loh Esau te a doo tih, “Anih te nang soah boei la ka khueh coeng ne. Te dongah a pacaboeina boeih te a taengah sal la ka paek. Te phoeiah cangpai neh misur thai khaw anih ka pang sak coeng. Te dongah ka ca nang ham balae ka saii bal eh?,” a ti nah.
Then answered Isaac and said to Esau, —Lo a lord, have I appointed him unto thee, And, all his brethren, have I given to him as servants, And with corn and new wine, have I sustained him, —And for thee—now, what can I do, my son?
38 Tedae Esau loh a napa taengah, “a pa na taengkah yoethennah te pakhat khaw ta? Kai khaw yoethen m'pae van saw a pa,” a ti nah. Te vaengah Esau loh a ol te a huel tih rhap.
And Esau said unto his father, But one blessing, hast thou, O my father? Bless, me also, O my father! And Esau lifted up his voice and wept.
39 Te dongah a napa Isaak loh anih te a doo tih, “Diklai kah khuehtawn neh vaan dong sosang lamkah buemtui loh namah tolrhum ah om bitni ne.
Then answered Isaac his father and said unto him, —Lo! of the fat parts of the earth, shall be thy dwelling, And of the dew of the heavens, above;
40 Na cunghang neh na hing vetih na mana taengah na thotat ni. Tedae na van van neh na rhawn dongkah a hnamkun te na bawt bitni,” a ti nah.
And on thy sword, shalt thou live, And thy brother, shalt thou serve: But it shall come to pass when thou shalt rove at large, Then shalt thou break his yoke from off thy neck.
41 Tedae a napa kah yoethennah te anih te yoethen a paek dongah Esau loh Jakob taengah a konaeh. Te dongah Esau loh a lungbuei khuiah,” A pa kah nguekcoinah tue yoei, ka mana Jakob te ka ngawn ni,” a ti.
And Esau lay in wait for Jacob, on account of the blessing wherewith his father had blessed him, —and Esau said in his heart, The days of mourning for my father draw near, when I can slay Jacob my brother.
42 Tedae a capa a ham Esau kah olka te Rebekah taengah a puen pah. Te dongah a capa a noe Jakob te a tah tih a khue sak. Te phoeiah amah taengah, “Na maya Esau loh nang ngawn daengah ni nang ham dam a ti eh ne.
Then were told to Rebekah, the words of Esau her elder son, so she sent and called for Jacob, her younger son, and said unto him—Lo! Esau, thy brother, is consoling himself as touching thee, to slay thee.
43 Te dongah ka ca, kai ol he ngai laeh. Thoo lamtah Haran ah ka nganpa Laban taengla namah yong laeh.
Now, therefore, my son, hearken to my voice, —and rise flee thou to Laban my brother to Haran;
44 Na maya kah kosi a mael hil hnin at khaw anih taengla khosa mai.
And thou shalt dwell with him a few days, —until that the wrath of thy brother turn away:
45 Na maya loh nang taengkah thintoek te mael tih anih taengah na saii te a hnilh phoeiah kan tah vetih te lamkah nang kan loh bitni. Balae tih nangmih rhoi khaw hnin at ah kan hlong eh?” a ti nah.
until the turning away of the anger of thy brother from thee, and he forget what thou hast done to him, and I send and fetch thee from thence. Wherefore should I lose, you both, in one day?
46 Te dongah Rebekah loh Isaak taengah, “Kheth nu mikhmuh ah ka hingnah loh a mueipuel. Amih Kheth nu bang tolrhum kah huta te Jakob loh a yuu la lo koinih kai kah hingnah he metlam a om eh?,” a ti nah.
So then Rebekah said unto Isaac, I am disgusted with my life because of the daughters of Heth, —Should Jacob be taking a wife of the daughters of Heth, like these, of the daughters of the land, wherefore could I wish for life?
