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.”
Isak namalasi ma, mata nara rangga, de noꞌe ana ulu na, fo ana sue naseliꞌ a nae, “Sau e! Uma ia dei!” Esau nataa nae, “Taꞌo bee, amaꞌ?”
2 His father said to him: “You see that I am old, and I do not know the day of my death.
Isak nafadꞌe nae, “Taꞌo ia! Au, lasiꞌ ena. Nda bubꞌuluꞌ fai hiraꞌ naa au mate sa.
3 Take your weapons, the quiver and the bow, and go out. And when you have taken something by hunting,
De haꞌi tee-tande mara, fo muu sombu banda fui esa fee au dei.
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.”
Baliꞌ naa, tunu-nasu maladꞌa-maladꞌaꞌ tungga au hihii ngga, fo mendi nema. Ua basa fo, au fee nggo papala-babꞌanggiꞌ. Basa naa, fo au mate o, malole.”
5 And when Rebekah had heard this, and he had gone out into the field to fulfill his father’s order,
Boe ma, Esau lao neu sombu banda. Te Ribka o rena Isak oꞌola na boe.
6 she said to her son Jacob: “I heard your father speaking with your brother Esau, and saying to him,
De neu nafadꞌe Yakob nae, “We, Ako! Rena malolole! Faꞌ ra ama ma olaꞌ no Esau taꞌo ia:
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.’
‘Muu sombu banda fui esa, fo tunu-nasu maladꞌa-maladꞌaꞌ fee au. Mete ma au ua basa, dei fo au fee nggo papala-babꞌanggiꞌ, sia LAMATUALAIN mata na.’
8 Therefore, now my son, agree to my counsel,
De rena malolole, Ako! Tungga tebꞌe-tebꞌeꞌ parenda ngga ia.
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.
Oras ia, muu sia hita lalaet hiek-lombo na, fo hii mala hie tena mbarunaꞌ rua. Mbau se fo haꞌi mala sisi na, mendi fee au. Dei fo au tunu-nasu tungga ama ma hihii na.
10 Then, when you have brought these in and he has eaten, he may bless you before he dies.”
Au tunu-nasu ala, naa, mendi fee ama ma fo ana naa. Basa fo, ana fee nggo papala-babꞌanggiꞌ, dei fo ana feꞌe mate na. No taꞌo naa, ho mana hambu papala-babꞌanggiꞌ naa, te nda aꞌa ma sa.”
11 He answered her: “You know that my brother Esau is a hairy man, and I am smooth.
Boe ma Yakob olaꞌ no ina na nae, “Te Inaꞌ e! Aꞌa Saul ao na mafuluꞌ, te au ao ngga manggamomouꞌ!
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.”
Afiꞌ losa amaꞌ nafaroe ao ngga ma, ana nahine au eꞌedik e. Boe ma ana sumba-ndoon au!”
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.”
Ma ina na nataa nae, “Ako e! Afiꞌ duꞌa saꞌ boe. Fee nema, dei fo au tao dalan! Mete ma amam sumba-ndoon nggo, dei fo au lemba-doi! De muu haꞌi hiek leo.”
14 He went out, and he brought, and he gave to his mother. She prepared the meats, just as she knew his father liked.
Dei de, Yakob neu humu nendi hiek ra, de ana mbau, ma nendi fee ina na. Ma Ribka tunu-nasu tungga Isak hihii na.
15 And she clothed him with the very fine garments of Esau, which she had at home with her.
Ana o haꞌi Esau bua-baꞌu malole na, de fee Yakob pake.
16 And she encircled his hands with little pelts from the young goats, and she covered his bare neck.
Ma ana mboti Yakob lima na no nggara-bote na, nendiꞌ hiek ka fulu na.
17 And she gave him the small meal, and she handed him the bread that she had baked.
Ma ana fee Yakob nanaa maladꞌaꞌ naa ra, no roti fo ana taoꞌ a.
18 When he had carried these in, he said, “My father?” And he answered, “I’m listening. Who are you, my son?”
Boe ma Yakob nendi nanaat naa fee ama na. Ana olaꞌ nae, “Ama ngge! Au uma ena.” Isak nataa nae, “Hee? Ho seka?”
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.”
Yakob nataa nae, “Au ia, amaꞌ ana ulu na, Esau! Au tao tungga saa fo amaꞌ denu faꞌ ra. Fela fo mua leo. Au nasu ala sisi fo sombu endi mia lasi a. Mua, fo basa na fee au papala-babꞌanggiꞌ leo!”
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.”
Ma Isak olaꞌ nae, “Ho seli, o! Ho hambu banda fui lai-lai neuꞌ ena!” Yakob nataa nae, “Au hambu lai-lai, huu LAMATUALAIN fo amaꞌ beꞌutee neuꞌ a, tulu-fali au.”
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.”
Boe ma Isak noꞌe Yakob nae, “Uma deka-deka, fo au ufuroe sobꞌa nggo! Ho ia, tebꞌe Esau, do?”
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.”
Yakob neu deka no ama na, de lasiꞌ a nafaroe e. Ma ana olaꞌ nae, “Haraꞌ ia, onaꞌ Yakob hara na! Te limaꞌ ia, onaꞌ Esau lima na.”
23 And he did not recognize him, because his hairy hands made him seem similar to the elder one. Therefore, blessing him,
Isak nda nahine ana na Yakob sa, huu lima na mafuluꞌ onaꞌ a Esau. Ana nae fee papala-babꞌanggiꞌ neu Yakob ma,
24 he said, “Are you my son Esau?” He answered, “I am.”
natane seluꞌ fai nae, “Ho ia, tebꞌe-tebꞌeꞌ Esau, do?” Yakob nataa nae, “Tebꞌe amaꞌ!”
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,
Boe ma, Isak olaꞌ nae, “Lo sisi naa nema, te au ae ua. Dei fo, fee nggo papala-babꞌanggiꞌ.” Yakob loo sisi a neu e, ma fee oe anggor fo ana ninu.
26 he said to him, “Come to me and give me a kiss, my son.”
Basa ma, ama na olaꞌ nae, “Ana ngge! Uma deka-deka sia ia, fo idꞌu au dei.”
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.
Yakob neu deka-deka de idꞌu e, ma Isak hae nala Esau bua-baꞌu na foo na. Basa de, ana olaꞌ fee Yakob papala-babꞌanggiꞌ nae, “Ana ngga foo na, onaꞌ nembe uru fo LAMATUALAIN pala-banggiꞌ.
28 May God give to you, from the dew of heaven and from the fatness of the earth, an abundance of grain and wine.
Au hule-oꞌe fo Lamatualain naꞌondaꞌ dinis mia lalai a nema, fo tao osi-lutu mara dadꞌi meulauꞌ! Fo Ana fee are nae-nae, ma boa anggor maisi sofeꞌ.
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.”
Nusaꞌ ra dadꞌi ho ate ma, ma leo ra, beꞌutee fee hadat neu nggo. Dei fo ho parenda basa toronoo mara, ma ara sendeꞌ lululangga nara neu nggo. Seka sumba-ndoon nggo, sira o hambu sumba-ndoon boe. Ma seka fee nggo papala-babꞌanggiꞌ, sira o hambu papala-babꞌanggiꞌ boe.”
30 Scarcely had Isaac completed his words, and Jacob departed, when Esau arrived.
Isak fee basa papala-babꞌanggiꞌ ma, Yakob lao hela e. Boe ma, aꞌa na Esau baliꞌ nendi banda fo sombu nalaꞌ a.
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.”
Ana tunu-nasu nala, de nendi fee ama na, ma olaꞌ nae, “Ama ngge! Fela fo mua leo. Au tunu-nasu sisi fo sombu alaꞌ a. Mua leo, fo basa naa, fee au papala-babꞌanggiꞌ.”
32 And Isaac said to him, “But who are you?” And he answered, “I am your firstborn son, Esau.”
Isak rena nala ma, ana titindindi, de natane nae, “Hee! Ho se fai?” Esau nataa nae, “Au, Sau! Ana ulu ma.”
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.”
Boe ma Isak nggeꞌe-nggeꞌe. Natane nae, “Seka mana nendi sisi faꞌ ra? Au ua basa, de fee ne papala-babꞌanggiꞌ ena. Nda bisa lea baliꞌ sa.”
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.”
Rena ama na olaꞌ taꞌo naa ma, Esau rala na mera, de nggae ma nggasi nahereꞌ nae, “Adoo! Amaꞌ e! Fee au papala-babꞌanggiꞌ boe!”
35 And he said, “Your twin came deceitfully, and he received your blessing.”
Te Isak nae, “Nesen. Odꞌim eꞌedik nala au ena, ma namanaꞌo nendi papala-babꞌanggim ena.”
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?”
Boe ma Esau olaꞌ nae, “Ana eꞌedik nala au lao rua ena. Fefeu na, ana eꞌedik de haꞌi nala hak ulu ngga. Ia naa, papala-babꞌanggi ngga fai. Memaꞌ naran ‘Yakob’ naa, nandaa, huu ana mana maꞌedik. Amaꞌ feꞌe muꞌena papala-babꞌanggiꞌ feaꞌ fee au, do?”
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?”
Boe ma Isak nataa nae, “Nesen. Au soꞌu e dadꞌi malanggam ena. Ma odꞌi-aꞌa nara, dadꞌi ate nara. Au fee ne are naen seli, ma boa anggor maisi sofeꞌ. Dadꞌi ana ngge! Hela feꞌe papala-babꞌanggiꞌ saa fai, fo fee nggo?”
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 rena nala ma, ana akaꞌ a suu-noki ama na nakandooꞌ a nae, “Amaꞌ papala-babꞌanggi ma akaꞌ esaꞌ, do? Amaꞌ feꞌe bisa sangga fee au papala-babꞌanggi feaꞌ. Mae papala-babꞌanggi anadikiꞌ o, neu!” Boe ma ana nggae fai.
39 Isaac was moved, and he said to him: “In the fatness of the earth, and in the dew of heaven from above,
Boe ma, Isak nataa mbali e nae, “Ho masodꞌa ma naꞌadooꞌ mia osi meulauꞌ, te nda hambu dinis onda mia lalai fo naꞌadꞌoe rae ma sa.
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.”
Ho fela-tafa ma mana fee nggo masodꞌaꞌ. Te mae taꞌo bee o, ho dadꞌi odꞌi ma ate na. Mete ma ho bisa labꞌan e, naa, ho feꞌe bisa nenemboꞌit mia liman.”
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 namanasa Yakob seli, huu odꞌi na nalaka nala papala-babꞌanggi na. Ana duꞌa nae, “Nda dooꞌ sa te, ama ngga mate. De nehani dei. Basa bebeꞌe na fo, au isa e!”
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.
Ribka rena nala Esau dudꞌuꞌa na ma, ana noꞌe Yakob nae, “Rena malolole! Aꞌa ma naꞌena dudꞌuꞌat nae balas rala mera na. Ana nae nisa nggo, de, mela lai-lai misiꞌ toꞌo Labꞌan ma sia Haran.
43 Therefore, now my son, listen to my voice. Rise up and flee to my brother Laban, in Haran.
44 And you will dwell with him for a few days, until the fury of your brother subsides,
Muu leo dodꞌoo sia naa, losa aꞌa ma nda afiꞌ namanasa sa ena.
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?”
Mete ma ana liliiꞌ saa fo ho tao neu e, dei fo au denu atahori roꞌe baliꞌ nggo. Te au nda nau ana ngga ruꞌa se mopo sia fai esa rala sa.”
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.”
Basa ma, Ribka sangga dala fo Isak denu Yakob lao. Dadꞌi ana kokoe Isak nae, “Aꞌa e! Au doaꞌ o Esau sao nara atahori Het ia ra! Mete ma Yakob o sao ana feto Het boe, malole lenaꞌ au mateꞌ a.”
