Genesis 27
1 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.
Ketika Isak sudah tua dan tidak bisa melihat lagi, dia memanggil Esau, anaknya yang sulung, dan berkata, “Anakku!” Jawab Esau, “Ya, Ayah!”
2 “Look,” said Isaac, “I am now old, and I do not know the day of my death.
Isak berkata, “Aku sudah tua, dan hari kematianku semakin dekat.
3 Take your weapons—your quiver and bow—and go out into the field to hunt some game for me.
Ambillah panahmu beserta tabung anak panahnya, lalu pergilah berburu ke padang.
4 Then prepare a tasty dish that I love and bring it to me to eat, so that I may bless you before I die.”
Masaklah daging hasil buruan itu dengan enak, seperti yang aku sukai. Kemudian bawalah ke sini untuk aku makan, supaya aku bisa memberkatimu sebelum aku mati.”
5 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,
Ribka mendengar Isak berbicara kepada Esau. Maka ketika Esau pergi berburu,
6 Rebekah said to her son Jacob, “Behold, I overheard your father saying to your brother Esau,
berkatalah Ribka kepada Yakub, “Aku sudah mendengar ayahmu bicara kepada Esau.
7 ‘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.’
Ayah menyuruh kakakmu, ‘Pergilah berburu, lalu masaklah daging buruanmu bagiku. Sesudah aku memakannya, aku akan memberikan berkat TUHAN kepadamu sebelum aku mati.’
8 Now, my son, listen to my voice and do exactly as I tell you.
Nah, Yakub anakku, sekarang lakukanlah apa yang aku perintahkan kepadamu.
9 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.
Pergilah dan pilihlah dua ekor kambing muda terbaik dari kawanan ternak. Bawalah ke sini agar aku memasak dagingnya seperti kesukaan ayahmu.
10 Then take it to your father to eat, so that he may bless you before he dies.”
Nanti, bawalah makanan itu kepada ayahmu untuk dimakannya, supaya ayahmu memberkatimu sebelum dia meninggal.”
11 Jacob answered his mother Rebekah, “Look, my brother Esau is a hairy man, but I am smooth-skinned.
Jawab Yakub, “Ibu, tubuh Esau berbulu, sedangkan aku tidak.
12 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.”
Bagaimana kalau ayah memegangku?! Dia pasti langsung tahu bahwa aku bukan Esau dan bahwa aku sedang berusaha menipunya. Aku tidak akan diberkati ayah, malahan dikutuknya.”
13 His mother replied, “Your curse be on me, my son. Just obey my voice and go get them for me.”
Kata Ribka, “Bila terjadi demikian, biar ibumu ini yang menanggung kutukan ayahmu. Ikuti saja perkataan ibu. Ambillah dua anak kambing, dan segera bawalah ke sini.”
14 So Jacob went and got two goats and brought them to his mother, who made the tasty food his father loved.
Yakub mengikuti perintah ibunya. Dia pergi dan kembali dengan membawa anak kambing itu. Lalu ibunya menyiapkan hidangan yang sangat enak kesukaan Isak.
15 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.
Sesudah itu, Ribka mengambil pakaian Esau yang sangat bagus, yang disimpan di rumahnya, kemudian memberikannya kepada Yakub untuk dipakai.
16 She also put the skins of the young goats on his hands and on the smooth part of his neck.
Dia menutupi lengan Yakub dengan kulit kambing muda, juga bagian lehernya yang tidak berbulu.
17 Then she handed her son Jacob the tasty food and bread she had made.
Ribka menyerahkan masakan daging yang lezat itu serta roti yang baru dibakar kepadanya,
18 So Jacob went to his father and said, “My father.” “Here I am!” he answered. “Which one are you, my son?”
dan Yakub mendatangi ayahnya. “Ayah, ini aku,” katanya. Isak bertanya, “Kamu siapa, Esau atau Yakub?”
19 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.”
Jawab Yakub, “Aku Esau, anak sulungmu. Aku sudah melakukan semua yang Ayah minta. Duduklah dan nikmatilah daging buruan yang aku masak ini, supaya Ayah dapat memberkatiku.”
20 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.
Isak bertanya lagi kepada anaknya, “Bagaimana mungkin secepat itu kamu bisa mendapatkannya, anakku?” Jawab Yakub, “Karena TUHAN, Allah yang Ayah sembah, sudah menolongku.”
21 Then Isaac said to Jacob, “Please come closer so I can touch you, my son. Are you really my son Esau, or not?”
Kemudian Isak berkata kepada Yakub, “Mendekatlah supaya ayah bisa memegangmu untuk memastikan bahwa kamu benar-benar Esau.”
22 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.”
Yakub mendekat dan Isak merabanya sambil berkata, “Suaranya suara Yakub, tetapi lengannya lengan Esau.”
23 Isaac did not recognize him, because his hands were hairy like those of his brother Esau; so he blessed him.
Isak tidak tahu bahwa sebenarnya yang dia sentuh adalah Yakub karena lengannya berbulu seperti Esau. Sebelum memberkati Yakub,
24 Again he asked, “Are you really my son Esau?” And he replied, “I am.”
Isak bertanya lagi, “Apa benar kamu Esau?” Yakub menjawab, “Benar, aku Esau.”
25 “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.
Lalu berkatalah Isak, “Dekatkanlah makanan itu agar ayah dapat memakannya lalu memberkatimu.” Yakub mendekatkan makanan itu dan Isak memakannya. Yakub membawa anggur dan Isak meminumnya juga.
26 Then his father Isaac said to him, “Please come near and kiss me, my son.”
Kemudian Isak berkata kepadanya, “Anakku, mendekatlah dan ciumlah aku.”
27 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.
Maka Yakub mendekat dan mencium ayahnya. Ketika Isak mencium bau pakaian Esau yang dikenakan Yakub, dia memberkati Yakub dengan berkata, “Bau anakku ini bagaikan bau padang yang sudah diberkati TUHAN.
28 May God give to you the dew of heaven and the richness of the earth— an abundance of grain and new wine.
Semoga Allah memberikan kepadamu embun dari langit, dan membuat ladang-ladangmu subur! Semoga Dia memberikan kepadamu hasil panen dan anggur berlimpah-limpah!
29 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.”
Kiranya banyak orang akan melayanimu, dan bangsa-bangsa berlutut di hadapanmu. Biarlah kamu berkuasa atas saudara-saudaramu, dan anak-anak ibumu tunduk kepadamu. Terkutuklah orang yang mengutukmu dan diberkatilah orang yang memberkatimu!”
30 As soon as Isaac had finished blessing him and Jacob had left his father’s presence, his brother Esau returned from the hunt.
Segera sesudah Isak memberkati Yakub, dan Yakub baru saja meninggalkan ayahnya, Esau tiba dengan membawa hasil buruannya.
31 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.”
Esau memasak daging hasil buruannya dengan enak dan membawanya kepada Isak sambil berkata, “Ayah, duduklah dan makanlah makanan yang sudah aku siapkan, supaya Ayah bisa memberkatiku.”
32 But his father Isaac replied, “Who are you?” “I am Esau, your firstborn son,” he answered.
Bertanyalah Isak “Kamu siapa?” Jawab Esau, “Aku Esau, anak sulung Ayah.”
33 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!”
Isak sangat terkejut dan dengan gemetar dia bertanya, “Lalu siapakah yang sudah pergi berburu dan membawa makanan kepadaku sebelum kamu datang? Aku sudah memakan semuanya, dan sudah memberkati dia dengan berkat yang tidak bisa ditarik kembali!”
34 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!”
Mendengar itu, Esau sakit hati dan menangis keras-keras. Dia memohon, “Ayah, berkatilah aku juga!”
35 But Isaac replied, “Your brother came deceitfully and took your blessing.”
Tetapi Isak menjawab, “Adikmu sudah menipuku dan mengambil berkatmu.”
36 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?”
Berkatalah Esau, “Pantaslah namanya Yakub! Dia sudah dua kali menipuku. Pertama, dia merampas hakku sebagai anak sulung. Sekarang, dia merampas lagi hakku untuk mendapat berkat.” Lalu Esau bertanya kepada ayahnya, “Apakah Ayah tidak ada berkat lain untukku?”
37 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?”
Isak menjawab, “Sesungguhnya, aku sudah memberi dia kuasa atas kamu dan semua sanak saudaranya, untuk menjadi hamba-hambanya. Semua hasil panen serta anggur juga menjadi miliknya. Tidak ada lagi yang bisa ayah berikan kepadamu, anakku!”
38 Esau said to his father, “Do you have only one blessing, my father? Bless me too, O my father!” Then Esau wept aloud.
Esau bertanya lagi kepada ayahnya, “Hanya berkat itukah yang ada pada Ayah? Berkatilah aku juga, Ayah!” Lalu Esau meratap dengan nyaring.
39 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.
Isak menjawab, “Kamu akan hidup di tempat yang tidak subur, tanpa ada embun dari langit.
40 You shall live by the sword and serve your brother. But when you rebel, you will tear his yoke from your neck.”
Kamu akan hidup dengan pedangmu dan kamu akan menjadi hamba adikmu. Tetapi kalau kamu memberontak, kamu akan bebas dari kuasanya.”
41 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.”
Esau membenci Yakub karena ayah mereka sudah memberikan berkat kepadanya. Dalam hatinya, Esau berkata, “Tidak lama lagi ayah meninggal. Nanti, sesudah selesai acara berduka, aku akan membunuh Yakub!”
42 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.
Ketika mengetahui rencana Esau, Ribka memanggil Yakub dan berkata, “Dengarkanlah. Kakakmu Esau berniat untuk membalas dendam dan membunuhmu.
43 So now, my son, obey my voice and flee at once to my brother Laban in Haran.
Anakku, lakukanlah yang ibu sampaikan: Selamatkanlah dirimu. Pergilah segera kepada saudaraku Laban di Haran.
44 Stay with him for a while, until your brother’s fury subsides—
Tinggallah di sana untuk sementara waktu sampai kakakmu tidak lagi marah kepadamu
45 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?”
dan melupakan perbuatanmu kepadanya. Nanti, ibu akan mengutus seseorang untuk memanggil dan membawa kamu pulang. Ibu tidak ingin kehilangan kedua anak ibu pada hari yang sama.”
46 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?”
Setelah itu, Ribka berkata kepada Isak, “Aku benci hidup karena perempuan Het semacam istri-istri Esau itu. Kalau sampai Yakub menikahi perempuan dari daerah ini juga, lebih baik aku mati saja!”
