1 Kane Isaka oseti kendo wengene noseimore makoro ok nyal neno, noluongo Esau wuode makayo kendo owachone niya, “Wuoda.” Eka Esau nodwoke niya, “An ka.”
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 Isaka nowacho niya, “Koro asedoko moti kendo ok angʼeyo ndalo thona.
And he said, Behold, I pray thee, I am old, —I know not the day of my death.
3 Omiyo koro sani kaw gigi mag lweny kaka atungʼ kod asere kendo idhi e thim ikelna ring le.
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 Tedna ringʼo mamit mana kaka ahero cha kendo ikelna mondo acham mondo mi amiyi gwethna kapok atho.”
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 To Rebeka nochiko ite ka Isaka wuoyo gi wuode Esau. Kane Esau osewuok odhi e thim mondo odhi oneg le kendo okel,
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 Rebeka nowacho ne Jakobo wuode niya, “Nawinjo ka wuonu wacho ni owadu Esau niya,
Rebekah, therefore spake unto Jacob her son saying, —Lo! I heard thy father, speaking unto Esau thy brother, saying,
7 ‘Kelna ring le kendo ilosna mamit mondo acham mondo agwedhi e nyim Jehova Nyasaye kapok atho.’
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 Koro wuoda chik iti malongʼo kendo tim gima awachoni.
Now, therefore my son, hearken unto my voice, —in that which I am commanding thee:
9 Dhiyo e kweth mag jamni kendo ikelna nyidiek ariyo mopugno, mondo mi atedne wuonu ringʼo mamit kaka ohero-cha.
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 Bangʼ mano iterne wuonu mondo ocham bangʼe ogwedhi kapok otho.”
Then shalt thou take them in unto thy father and he shall eat, —To the end he may bless thee before his death.
11 Jakobo nowacho ne Rebeka min mare niya, “Esau omera en ngʼat ma rayier an to an gi del mapoth
And Jacob said unto Rebekah his mother, Lo! Esau my brother, is a hairy man, whereas, I, am a smooth man:
12 Datim nangʼo ka diponi wuora omula? Donge abiro nenora ngʼama wuonde kendo biro kelona kwongʼ kar gweth.”
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 Min Jakobo nonyise niya, “Wuoda, we mondo kwongʼno omaka, in to tim mana gima awacho; dhiyo kendo ikelnagi.”
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 Omiyo Jakobo nodhi mokelo nyidiek mopugno ne min mare kendo noloso chiemo mamit mana kaka wuon-gi ohero.
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 Eka Rebeka nokawo lewni mabeyo mag Esau wuode maduongʼ mane oyudo en-go e ot kendo ne orwako ne Jakobo wuode matin.
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 Kendo Rebeka nokawo piende diego moumogo bede Jakobo kod ngʼute kuonde maonge yier.
and the, skins of the kids of the goats, put she upon his hands, —and on the smooth part of his neck;
17 Eka nomiyo Jakobo wuode chiemo molos mamit kod kuon mane osetedo.
then placed she the dainty meats and the bread, which she had made ready, in the hand of Jacob her son.
18 Jakobo nodhi ir wuon mare kendo owachone niya, “Wuora.” Eka Isaka nopenje niya, “Wuoda, to in ngʼa?”
So he went in unto his father, and said My father! And he said Behold me! who art, thou, my son?
19 Jakobo nodwoko wuon mare niya, “An Esau wuodi makayo. Asetimo kaka ne inyisa. Yie ia malo ibed piny kendo icham ring le ma akeloni mondo mi igwedha.”
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 Isaka nopenje niya, “To ne iyude piyo nade wuoda?” Nodwoke niya, “Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasaye nogwedha.”
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 Eka Isaka nowacho ne Jakobo niya, “Sud machiegni mondo mi amuli, wuoda, mondo mi angʼe adier ka in wuoda Esau koso.”
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 Jakobo nobedo machiegni gi wuon mare Isaka, mano mule kendo owachone niya, “Dwol to mar Jakobo, to lwedo to gin lwet Esau.”
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 Isaka ne ok nyal fwenye nikech lwetene ne rayier ka mag Esau owadgi, kuom mano nogwedhe.
So he did not find him out, because, his hands were like the hands of Esau his brother hairy, —so he blessed him.
24 “Bende in wuoda ma Esau adier?” Isaka nopenje. Eka Jakobo nodwoke ni, “Ee en an.”
And he said, Thou thyself, art my son Esau? And he said, I am!
25 Eka nowacho niya, “Wuoda, koro kelna ring le mondo acham, mondo mi agwedhi.” Jakobo nokelone ringʼo mi ochamo bende nokelone divai mi omadho.
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 Eka Isaka wuon mare nowachone niya, “Bi ka wuoda mondo inyodha.”
Then Isaac his father said unto him, —Come thou near I pray thee and kiss me my son.
27 Kuom mano nodhi ire ma onyodhe. Kane Isaka owinjo tik lepe, nogwedhe kendo owachone niya, “Ee, tik mar wuoda dungʼ mamit machalo gi tik mar puodho, ma Jehova Nyasaye osegwedho.
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 Mad Nyasaye miyi koth moa e polo kod piny ma omewo kod cham mogundho, kod divai manyien.
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 Mad oganda duto bed jotichni kendo ji duto omiyi duongʼ. Bed ruoth ewi oweteni duto kendo mad yawuot minu omiyi duongʼ. Ngʼato angʼata mokwedi mondo okwede kendo ngʼato angʼata mogwedhi nogwedhi.”
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 Bangʼ ka Isaka nosetieko gwedho Jakobo kendo Jakobo ne pok odhi mabor, to gikanyono Esau nochopo koa dwar.
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 En bende noloso chiemo mamit kendo nokelo ne wuon mare. Eka Esau nowacho ne wuon mare niya, “Wuora, aa malo ibed piny mondo mi icham ringʼo malosoni kendo igwedha.”
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 Isaka wuon-gi nopenjo niya, “In ngʼa?” Nodwoke niya, “An Esau, wuodi makayo.”
And Isaac his father said to him Who art, thou? And he said, I, am thy son thy firstborn, Esau.
33 Isaka nobwok matek ahinya kendo owacho niya, “To kara macha ne en ngʼa, mane onego le kendo okelona? Nende achamo ringʼono kapok ibiro kendo agwedhe; kendo kuom adier asegwedhe.”
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 Kane Esau owinjo weche wuon mare, noywak malit ka en-gi mirima mager kowachone wuon mare niya, “Wuora, gwedha an bende!”
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 To nowachone niya, “Owadu nobiro mowuonda mi okawo gwethni.”
Then he said, Thy brother came in with deceit, —and took away thy blessing.
36 Esau nowacho niya, “Kara ma emomiyo nochake ni Jakobo? Osewuonda koro nyadiriyo: Nokawo duongʼ mar nywolna kendo koro okawo gwethna!” Eka Esau nopenjo wuon mare niya, “Bende gweth moro didongʼna?”
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 Isaka nodwoko Esau niya, “Asekete ruodhi kendo wedene duto aseketo obed jotichne bende asegwedhe gi cham kod divai. Koro ere gima anyalo timoni wuoda?”
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 Esau nowacho ne wuon mare niya, “In mana kod gweth achiel kende wuora? Yie igwedha an bende!” Eka Esau noywak matek gi dwol maduongʼ.
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 Wuon mare Isaka nodwoke niya, “Inidag e piny maonge mwandu, kendo motwo ma ok yud koth.
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 Ligangla ema nomiyi chiemo kendo inibed jatij owadu. To ka iyudo loch to iningʼanyne, kendo nia e bwo lochne.”
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 Esau nomako sadha gi Jakobo nikech gweth mane wuon-gi osemiyo Jakobo. Nowacho e chunye niya, “ndalo mag tho wuora chiegni, bangʼe abiro nego Jakobo owadwa.”
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 Kane Rebeka onyisi gima Esau wuode makayo paro timo, noluongo Jakobo wuode ma chogo kendo owachone niya, “Esau owadu nigi paro mar negi.”
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 Koro wuoda, tim gima awachoni: Ring idhi Haran ir Laban owadwa.
Now, therefore, my son, hearken to my voice, —and rise flee thou to Laban my brother to Haran;
44 Dak kode kuno mondi nyaka mirimb owadu dog chien.
And thou shalt dwell with him a few days, —until that the wrath of thy brother turn away:
45 Ka mirimb owadu oserumo kuomi kendo wiye osewil gi gima ne itimone, to abiro oroni wach mondo iduog ia kuno. Ere gima omiyo yawuota ariyo ditho odiechiengʼ achiel?
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 Eka Rebeka nowacho ne Isaka niya, “ajok gi ngima nikech nyi jo-Hiti-gi. Ka Jakobo bende nyalo kawo dhako mana kuom nyi jo-Hiti-gi, to owinjore atho.”
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?
