Genesis 27
1 And it came to pass after Isaac was old, that his eyes were dimmed so that he could not see; and he called Esau, his elder son, and said to him, My son; and he said, Behold, I [am here].
Na, i a Ihaka kua koroheketia, kua atarua hoki nga kanohi, i kore ai ia e kite, ka karangatia e ia a Ehau, tana tama matamua, ka mea ki a ia, E taku tama: a ka mea ia ki a ia, Tenei ahau.
2 And he said, Behold, I am grown old, and know not the day of my death.
Na ka mea ia, Nana, kua koroheke ahau, kahore hoki ahau e mohio ki te ra e mate ai ahau:
3 Now then take the weapons, both your quiver and your bow, and go into the plain, and get me venison,
Na reira mauria e koe au rakau, tau papa pere me tau kopere, ka haere ki te koraha ki te hopu kai maku;
4 and make me meats, as I like them, and bring them to me that I may eat, that my soul may bless you, before I die.
Ka taka ai i tetahi kai reka maku, hei taku i pai ai, ka mau mai ai ki ahau kia kai ahau; kia manaaki ai toku wairua i a koe i mua o toku matenga.
5 And Rebecca heard Isaac speaking to Esau his son; and Esau went to the plain to procure venison for his father.
A i rongo a Ripeka i te korerotanga a Ihaka ki a Ehau, ki tana tama. Na ko te haerenga o Ehau ki te koraha ki te hopu kai hei maunga mai mana.
6 And Rebecca said to Jacob her younger son, Behold, I heard your father speaking to Esau your brother, saying,
Na ka korero a Ripeka ki a Hakopa, ki tana tama, ka mea, Nana, kua rongo ahau i tou papa e korero ana ki a Ehau, ki tou tuakana, e mea ana,
7 Bring me venison, and prepare me meats, that I may eat and bless you before the Lord before I die.
Mauria mai tetahi kai maku, ka taka ai i tetahi kai reka maku, kia kai ahau, kia manaaki ai ahau i a koe i te aroaro o Ihowa, kei mate ahau.
8 Now then, my son, listen to me, as I command you.
Na, whakarongo ki toku reo, e taku tama, kia rite ki taku e whakahau nei ki a koe.
9 And go to the cattle and take for me thence two kids, tender and good, and I will make them meats for your father, as he likes.
Haere inaianei ki te kahui, ka mau mai ki ahau i reira kia rua nga kuao papai o nga koati; a maku ena e taka hei kai reka ma tou papa, hei pera me tana e pai ai:
10 And you shall bring them in to your father, and he shall eat, that your father may bless you before he dies.
A mau e kawe ki tou papa, kia kai ia, kia manaaki ai ia i a koe kei wha mate ia.
11 And Jacob said to his mother Rebecca, Esau my brother is a hairy man, and I a smooth man.
Na ka mea a Hakopa ki a Ripeka, ki tona whaea, Na ko Ehau, ko toku tuakana, he tangata puhuruhuru, ko ahau ia he kiri maheni:
12 Peradventure my father may feel me, and I shall be before him as one ill-intentioned, and I shall bring upon me a curse, and not a blessing.
Tera pea toku papa e whawha i ahau, a ki tana ka rite ahau ki te tangata tinihanga: a he kanga te mea e riro mai i ahau, kahore he manaaki.
13 And his mother said to him, On me be your curse, son; only listen to my voice, and go and bring [them] me.
Na ko te meatanga a tona whaea ki a ia, Hei runga i ahau tou kanga, e taku tama: whakarongo mai ia ki toku reo, haere, tikina aua mea ki ahau.
14 So he went and took and brought them to his mother; and his mother made meats, as his father liked [them].
Na ka haere ia, ka tikina, ka mauria mai ki tona whaea: a ka taka e tona whaea he kai reka, he pera me ta tona papa i pai ai.
15 And Rebecca having taken the fine raiment of her elder son Esau which was with her in the house, put it on Jacob her younger son.
Na ka tikina e Ripeka nga kakahu papai o Ehau, o tana tama o mua, i a ia hoki aua mea i roto i te whare; a whakakakahuria ana e ia ki a Hakopa, ki tana tama o muri:
16 And she put on his arms the skins of the kids, and on the bare parts of his neck.
A ka whakapiritia e ia nga hiako o nga kuao koati ki ona ringa, ki te wahi maeneene hoki o tona ka kai:
17 And she gave the meats, and the loaves which she had prepared, into the hands of Jacob her son.
Na ka hoatu e ia te kai reka me te taro i hanga e ia ki te ringa o Hakopa, o tana tama.
18 And he brought [them] to his father, and said, Father; and he said, Behold I [am here]; who are you, son?
Na ka tae ia ki tona papa, ka mea, E toku matua: a ka mea a, Tenei ahau; ko wai koe, e taku ama?
19 And Jacob said to his father, I, Esau your firstborn, have done as you told me; rise, sit, and eat of my venison, that your soul may bless me.
Na ka mea a Hakopa ki tona papa, Ko Ehau ahau, ko tau matamua: kua oti i ahau tau i ki mai ai ki ahau: na maranga ake, e noho ki te kai i te kai i hopukia nei e ahau, kia manaaki ai tou wairua i ahau.
20 And Isaac said to his son, What is this which you have quickly found? And he said, That which the Lord your God presented before me.
A ka mea a Ihaka ki tana tama, Na te aha i hohoro ai te kitea e koe, e taku tama? Ka mea ia, Na Ihowa hoki, na tou Atua, i homai kia hohoro.
21 And Isaac said to Jacob, Draw night to me, and I will feel you, son, if you are my son Esau or not.
A ka mea a Ihaka ki a Hakopa, Nuku mai nei na, kia whawha ahau ki a koe, e taku tama, ko taku tama tonu ranei koe, ko Ehau, kahore ranei.
22 And Jacob drew near to his father Isaac, and he felt him, and said, The voice [is] Jacob's voice, but the hands [are] the hands of Esau.
Na ka neke atu a Hakopa ki a Ihaka, ki tona papa, a ka whawha tera i a ia, ka mea, Ko te reo, no Hakopa te reo, ko nga ringa ia, no Ehau nga ringaringa.
23 And he knew him not, for his hands were as the hands of his brother Esau, hairy; and he blessed him,
A kihai ia i mohio ki a ia, no te mea he huruhuru ona ringa, i rite ki nga ringa o Ehau, o tona tuakana: na ka manaaki ia i a ia.
24 and he said, Are you my son Esau? and he said, I [am].
A ka mea, Ko taku tama pu ranei koe, ko Ehau? A ka mea ia, Ko ahau tenei.
25 And he said, Bring hither, and I will eat of your venison, son, that my soul may bless you; and he brought [it] near to him, and he ate, and he brought him wine, and he drank.
Na ka mea ia, Kawea mai kia tata ki ahau, kia kai ahau i te kai i hopukia e taku tama, kia manaaki ai toku wairua i a koe. Na kawea atu ana e ia ki a ia, a ka kai ia: i mauria atu ano e ia he waina ki a ia, a inu ana ia.
26 And Isaac his father said to him, Draw near to me, and kiss me, son.
Katahi ka mea a Ihaka, tona papa, ki a ia, Nuku mai nei, ka kihi i ahau, e taku tama.
27 And he drew near and kissed him, and smelled the smell of his garments, and blessed him, and said, Behold, the smell of my son is as the smell of an abundant field, which the Lord has blessed.
Na ka neke atu ia, a ka kihi ia i a ia: a ka hongi ia i te haunga o ona kakahu, ka manaaki i a ia, ka mea, Titiro hoki, rite tahi te haunga o taku tama ki te haunga o te parae i manaakitia e Ihowa:
28 And may God give you of the dew of heaven, and of the fatness of the earth, and abundance of corn and wine.
Kia homai ano e te Atua ki a koe te tomairangi o te rangi, me te momonatanga o te whenua, kia nui ano hoki te witi me te waina:
29 And let nations serve you, and princes bow down to you, and be you lord of your brother, and the sons of your father shall do you reverence; accursed is he that curses you, and blessed is he that blesses you.
Kia mahi nga iwi ki a koe, kia piko iho hoki nga tauiwi ki a koe: kia waiho koe hei rangatira mo ou teina, a kia piko iho ki a koe nga tama a tou whaea: kia kanga te tangata e kanga ana i a koe, a kia manaakitia te tangata e manaaki ana i a koe.
30 And it came to pass after Isaac had ceased blessing his son Jacob, it even came to pass, just when Jacob had gone out from the presence of Isaac his father, that Esau his brother came in from his hunting.
A, mutu ana te manaaki a Ihaka i a Hakopa, puta kau atu ano a Hakopa i te aroaro o Ihaka, o tona papa, na ka tae mai a Ehau, tona tuakana, i tana hopu kirehe mohoao.
31 And he also had made meats and brought them to his father; and he said to his father, Let my father arise and eat of his son's venison, that your soul may bless me.
Kua oti ano hoki i a ia tetahi kai reka te taka, a kawea ana ki tona papa, na ka mea ki tona papa, Kia ara ake toku papa ki te kai i te mea i hopukia mai e tana tama, kia manaaki ai tou wairua i ahau.
32 And Isaac his father said to him, Who are you? And he said, I am your firstborn son Esau.
Na ka mea a Ihaka, tona papa, ki a ia, Ko wai koe? A ka mea ia, ko tau tama ahau, ko Ehau, ko tau matamua.
33 And Isaac was amazed with very great amazement, and said, Who then is it that has procured venison for me and brought it to me? and I have eaten of all before you came, and I have blessed him, and he shall be blessed.
Na tino wiri rawa ana a Ihaka, a ka mea, Ha, ko wai ra tenei i hopukia nei e ia he kai, a kawea ana mai ki ahau, a kainga katoatia ana e ahau i te mea kahore ano koe i tae mai, a manaakitia ana ia e ahau? ae ra, ka manaakitia ano ia.
34 And it came to pass when Esau heard the words of his father Isaac, he cried out with a great and very bitter cry, and said, Bless, I pray you, me also, father.
A, i te rongonga o Ehau i nga kupu a tona papa, ka tangi ia, he tangi nui, he tangi tiwerawera, a ka mea ki tona papa, Manaakitia ahau, ae ra, ahau ano hoki, e toku papa.
35 And he said to him, Your brother has come with subtlety, and taken your blessing.
A ka mea ia, I haere tinihanga mai tou teina, a riro ana tou manaaki i a ia.
36 And he said, Rightly was his name called Jacob, for behold! this second time has he supplanted me; he has both taken my birthright, and now he has taken my blessing; and Esau said to his father, Hast you not left a blessing for me, father?
Na ka mea ia, Ka tika ha te tapanga i a ia ko Hakopa? kua rua nei hoki oku mamingatanga e ia: ko toku matamuatanga kua riro i a ia; a inaianei kua riro toku manaaki i a ia. Ka mea ano ia, Kahore ranei i mahue atu ki a koe tetahi manaaki moku?
37 And Isaac answered and said to Esau, If I have made him your lord, and have made all his brethren his servants, and have strengthened him with corn and wine, what then shall I do for you, son?
Na ka whakahoki a Ihaka, ka mea ki a Ehau, Na, kua waiho ia e ahau hei rangatira mou, kua hoatu hoki ona tuakana katoa ki a ia hei apa; kua whakaukia hoki ia e ahau ki te witi, ki te waina: a he aha ra mau hei meatanga maku, e taku tama?
38 And Esau said to his father, Hast you [only] one blessing, father? Bless, I pray you, me also, father. And Isaac being troubled, Esau cried aloud and wept.
Na ka mea a Ehau ki tona papa, Kotahi tonu ia tau manaaki, e toku papa? manaakitia ahau, ae ra, ahau ano hoki, e toku papa. Na nui atu te reo o Ehau ki te tangi.
39 And Isaac his father answered and said to him, Behold, your dwelling shall be of the fatness of the earth, and of the dew of heaven from above.
Na ka whakahoki a Ihaka, tona papa, ka mea ki a ia, Na, no te momonatanga o te whenua te nohoanga mou, no te tomairangi hoki o te rangi i runga;
40 And you shall live by your sword, and shall serve your brother; and there shall be [a time] when you shall break and loosen his yoke from off your neck.
Ma tau hoari hoki e ora ai koe, me mahi ano koe ki tou teina; a tenei ake, kei tou kakenga hei rangatira, na ka wahia atu e koe tana ioka i tou kaki.
41 And Esau was angry with Jacob because of the blessing, with which his father blessed him; and Esau said in his mind, Let the days of my father's mourning draw near, that I may kill my brother Jacob.
Na ka mauahara a Ehau ki a Hakopa mo te manaaki i manaakitia ai ia e tona papa; a ka mea a Ehau i roto i tona ngakau, E tata ana nga ra e uhungatia ai toku papa; ko reira ahau patu ai i toku teina, i a Hakopa.
42 And the words of Esau her elder son were reported to Rebecca, and she sent and called Jacob her younger son, and said to him, Behold, Esau your brother threatens you to kill you.
Na ka korerotia ki a Ripeka nga kupu a Ehau, a tana tama o mua: a ka tono tangata ia ki te karanga i a Hakopa, i tana tama o muri, ka mea ki a ia, Na, tenei tou tuakana, a Ehau, mo te wahi ki a koe, te whakamarie nei i a ia, te mea nei ki te pat u i a koe.
43 Now then, my son, hear my voice, and rise and depart quickly into Mesopotamia to Laban my brother into Charran.
No konei, e taku tama, whakarongo ki toku reo; whakatika, e rere ki a Rapana, ki toku tungane, ki Harana;
44 And dwell with him certain days, until your brother's anger
Hei a ia koe noho ai mo etahi rangi, kia tahuri atu ra ano te aritarita o tou tuakana;
45 and rage depart from you, and he forget what you have done to him; and I will send and fetch you thence, lest at any time I should be bereaved of you both in one day.
Kia tahuri ke atu ra ano i a koe te riri a tou tuakana, kia wareware hoki i a ia tau i mea ai ki a ia: katahi ahau ka tono tangata ki te tiki atu i a koe i reira: he aha kia tangohia atu ai korua tokorua i ahau i te rangi kotahi?
46 And Rebecca said to Isaac, I am weary of my life, because of the daughters of the sons of Chet; if Jacob shall take a wife of the daughters of this land, therefore should I live?
Na ka mea a Ripeka ki a Ihaka, Kei te hoha ahau ki te ora i nga tamahine a Hete: ki te tango a Hakopa i tetahi wahine mana i roto i nga tamahine a Hete, i tetahi e penei ana me enei tamahine o te whenua nei, hei aha ake moku te ora?
