Genesis 27
1 Now Isaac was old, and his eyes were cloudy, and so he was not able to see. And he called his elder son Esau, and he said to him, “My son?” And he responded, “Here I am.”
Ketika Isak sudah tua dan tidak bisa melihat lagi, dia memanggil Esau, anaknya yang sulung, dan berkata, “Anakku!” Jawab Esau, “Ya, Ayah!”
2 His father said to him: “You see that I am 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, the quiver and the bow, and go out. And when you have taken something by hunting,
Ambillah panahmu beserta tabung anak panahnya, lalu pergilah berburu ke padang.
4 make from it a small meal for me, just as you know I like, and bring it, so that I may eat and my soul 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 And when Rebekah had heard this, and he had gone out into the field to fulfill his father’s order,
Ribka mendengar Isak berbicara kepada Esau. Maka ketika Esau pergi berburu,
6 she said to her son Jacob: “I heard your father speaking with your brother Esau, and saying to him,
berkatalah Ribka kepada Yakub, “Aku sudah mendengar ayahmu bicara kepada Esau.
7 ‘Bring to me from your hunting, and make me foods, so that I may eat and bless you in the sight 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 Therefore, now my son, agree to my counsel,
Nah, Yakub anakku, sekarang lakukanlah apa yang aku perintahkan kepadamu.
9 and go straight to the flock, and bring me two of the best young goats, so that from them I may make meat for your father, such as he willingly eats.
Pergilah dan pilihlah dua ekor kambing muda terbaik dari kawanan ternak. Bawalah ke sini agar aku memasak dagingnya seperti kesukaan ayahmu.
10 Then, when you have brought these in and he has eaten, he may bless you before he dies.”
Nanti, bawalah makanan itu kepada ayahmu untuk dimakannya, supaya ayahmu memberkatimu sebelum dia meninggal.”
11 He answered her: “You know that my brother Esau is a hairy man, and I am smooth.
Jawab Yakub, “Ibu, tubuh Esau berbulu, sedangkan aku tidak.
12 If my father should lay hands on me and perceive it, I am afraid lest he think me willing to mock him, and I will bring a curse upon myself, instead of 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 And his mother said to him: “Let this curse be upon me, my son. Yet listen to my voice, and go directly to bring what I said.”
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 He went out, and he brought, and he gave to his mother. She prepared the meats, just as she knew his father liked.
Yakub mengikuti perintah ibunya. Dia pergi dan kembali dengan membawa anak kambing itu. Lalu ibunya menyiapkan hidangan yang sangat enak kesukaan Isak.
15 And she clothed him with the very fine garments of Esau, which she had at home with her.
Sesudah itu, Ribka mengambil pakaian Esau yang sangat bagus, yang disimpan di rumahnya, kemudian memberikannya kepada Yakub untuk dipakai.
16 And she encircled his hands with little pelts from the young goats, and she covered his bare neck.
Dia menutupi lengan Yakub dengan kulit kambing muda, juga bagian lehernya yang tidak berbulu.
17 And she gave him the small meal, and she handed him the bread that she had baked.
Ribka menyerahkan masakan daging yang lezat itu serta roti yang baru dibakar kepadanya,
18 When he had carried these in, he said, “My father?” And he answered, “I’m listening. Who are you, my son?”
dan Yakub mendatangi ayahnya. “Ayah, ini aku,” katanya. Isak bertanya, “Kamu siapa, Esau atau Yakub?”
19 And Jacob said: “I am Esau, your firstborn. I have done as you instructed me. Arise; sit and eat from my hunting, so that your soul 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 And again Isaac said to his son, “How were you able to find it so quickly, my son?” He answered, “It was the will of God, so that what I sought met with me quickly.”
Isak bertanya lagi kepada anaknya, “Bagaimana mungkin secepat itu kamu bisa mendapatkannya, anakku?” Jawab Yakub, “Karena TUHAN, Allah yang Ayah sembah, sudah menolongku.”
21 And Isaac said, “Come here, so that I may touch you, my son, and may prove whether you are my son Esau, or not.”
Kemudian Isak berkata kepada Yakub, “Mendekatlah supaya ayah bisa memegangmu untuk memastikan bahwa kamu benar-benar Esau.”
22 He approached his father, and when he had felt him, Isaac said: “The voice indeed 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 And he did not recognize him, because his hairy hands made him seem similar to the elder one. Therefore, blessing him,
Isak tidak tahu bahwa sebenarnya yang dia sentuh adalah Yakub karena lengannya berbulu seperti Esau. Sebelum memberkati Yakub,
24 he said, “Are you my son Esau?” He answered, “I am.”
Isak bertanya lagi, “Apa benar kamu Esau?” Yakub menjawab, “Benar, aku Esau.”
25 Then he said, “Bring me the foods from your hunting, my son, so that my soul may bless you.” And when he had eaten what was offered, he also brought forth wine for him. And after he finished it,
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 he said to him, “Come to me and give me a kiss, my son.”
Kemudian Isak berkata kepadanya, “Anakku, mendekatlah dan ciumlah aku.”
27 He approached and kissed him. And immediately he perceived the fragrance of his garments. And so, blessing him, he said: “Behold, the smell of my son is like the smell of a plentiful field, which 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, from the dew of heaven and from the fatness of the earth, an abundance of grain and wine.
Semoga Allah memberikan kepadamu embun dari langit, dan membuat ladang-ladangmu subur! Semoga Dia memberikan kepadamu hasil panen dan anggur berlimpah-limpah!
29 And may the peoples serve you, and may the tribes reverence you. May you be the lord of your brothers, and may your mother’s sons bow down before you. Whoever curses you, may he be cursed, and whoever blesses you, may he be filled with blessings.”
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 Scarcely had Isaac completed his words, and Jacob departed, when Esau arrived.
Segera sesudah Isak memberkati Yakub, dan Yakub baru saja meninggalkan ayahnya, Esau tiba dengan membawa hasil buruannya.
31 And he brought his father foods cooked from his hunting, saying, “Arise, my father, and eat from your son’s hunting, so that your soul 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 And Isaac said to him, “But who are you?” And he answered, “I am your firstborn son, Esau.”
Bertanyalah Isak “Kamu siapa?” Jawab Esau, “Aku Esau, anak sulung Ayah.”
33 Isaac became frightened and very astonished. And wondering beyond what can be believed, he said: “Then who is he that a while ago brought me the prey from his hunting, from which I ate, before you arrived? And I blessed him, and 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 Esau, having heard his father’s words, roared out with a great outcry. And, being confounded, he said, “But bless me also, my father.”
Mendengar itu, Esau sakit hati dan menangis keras-keras. Dia memohon, “Ayah, berkatilah aku juga!”
35 And he said, “Your twin came deceitfully, and he received your blessing.”
Tetapi Isak menjawab, “Adikmu sudah menipuku dan mengambil berkatmu.”
36 But he responded: “Justly is his name called Jacob. For he has supplanted me yet another time. My birthright he took away before, and now, this second time, he has stolen my blessing.” And again, he said to his father, “Have you not reserved a blessing for me also?”
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 Isaac answered: “I have appointed him as your lord, and I have subjugated all his brothers as his servants. I have reinforced him with grain and wine, and after this, my son, what more shall I do for you?”
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 And Esau said to him: “Have you only one blessing, father? I beg you, bless me also.” And when he wept with a loud wail,
Esau bertanya lagi kepada ayahnya, “Hanya berkat itukah yang ada pada Ayah? Berkatilah aku juga, Ayah!” Lalu Esau meratap dengan nyaring.
39 Isaac was moved, and he said to him: “In the fatness of the earth, and in the dew of heaven from above,
Isak menjawab, “Kamu akan hidup di tempat yang tidak subur, tanpa ada embun dari langit.
40 will your blessing be. You will live by the sword, and you will serve your brother. But the time will arrive when you will shake off and release 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 Therefore, Esau always hated Jacob, for the blessing with which his father had blessed him. And he said in his heart, “The days will arrive for the mourning of my father, and 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 These things were reported to Rebekah. And sending and calling for her son Jacob, she said to him, “Behold, your brother Esau is threatening to kill you.
Ketika mengetahui rencana Esau, Ribka memanggil Yakub dan berkata, “Dengarkanlah. Kakakmu Esau berniat untuk membalas dendam dan membunuhmu.
43 Therefore, now my son, listen to my voice. Rise up and flee to my brother Laban, in Haran.
Anakku, lakukanlah yang ibu sampaikan: Selamatkanlah dirimu. Pergilah segera kepada saudaraku Laban di Haran.
44 And you will dwell with him for a few days, until the fury of your brother subsides,
Tinggallah di sana untuk sementara waktu sampai kakakmu tidak lagi marah kepadamu
45 and his indignation ceases, and he forgets the things that you have done to him. After this, I will send for you and bring you from there to here. Why should I be bereaved of both my sons 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 And Rebekah said to Isaac, “I am weary of my life because of the daughters of Heth. If Jacob accepts a wife from the stock of this land, I would not be willing to live.”
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!”
