Genesis 27
1 And it came to pass, that when Isaac was old, and his eyes were dim, so that he could not see, he called Esau his eldest son, and said unto him, My son: and he said unto him, Behold, [here am] I.
Alò, li te vin rive lè Isaac te vye, e zye li te twò fèb pou wè, ke li te rele Ésaü, pi gran nan pitit li yo. Li te di li: “Fis mwen.” Ésaü te reponn li: “Men mwen.”
2 And he said, Behold now, I am old, I know not the day of my death:
Isaac te di: “Gade byen, koulye a, mwen vin vye. Mwen pa konnen jou ke m ap mouri an.
3 Now therefore take, I pray thee, thy weapons, thy quiver and thy bow, and go out to the field, and take me [some] venison;
Ebyen, souple pran flèch ou yo avèk banza ou, e ale nan chan pou fè lachas jibye pou mwen.
4 And make me savoury meat, such as I love, and bring [it] to me, that I may eat; that my soul may bless thee before I die.
Prepare yon manje ki gen bon gou, jan ou konnen ke m renmen li an, e pote ban mwen pou m kab manje, pou nanm mwen kapab beni ou avan ke m mouri.”
5 And Rebekah heard when Isaac spake to Esau his son. And Esau went to the field to hunt [for] venison, [and] to bring [it].
Rebecca t ap koute pandan Isaac t ap pale avèk fis li a, Ésaü. Alò, lè Ésaü te ale nan chan pou fè lachas jibye pou kapab pote lakay,
6 And Rebekah spake unto Jacob her son, saying, Behold, I heard thy father speak unto Esau thy brother, saying,
Rebecca te di fis li a, Jacob: “Veye byen, mwen te tande papa ou pale ak frè ou a Ésaü. Li te di:
7 Bring me venison, and make me savoury meat, that I may eat, and bless thee before the LORD before my death.
‘Pote pou mwen kèk jibye e prepare yon manje bon gou pou mwen, pou mwen kapab manje, e beni ou nan prezans SENYÈ a, avan ke m mouri.’
8 Now therefore, my son, obey my voice according to that which I command thee.
Alò, pou sa, fis mwen, koute lòd ke mwen pral ba ou a.
9 Go now to the flock, and fetch me from thence two good kids of the goats; and I will make them savoury meat for thy father, such as he loveth:
Ale koulye a, ale nan bann twoupo a. Chwazi de jèn kabrit ladann, pou m kapab prepare yo kòm yon bon manje pou papa ou, jan li renmen li an.
10 And thou shalt bring [it] to thy father, that he may eat, and that he may bless thee before his death.
Konsa, ou va pote li bay papa ou, pou li kapab manje, pou li kapab beni ou avan ke li mouri”.
11 And Jacob said to Rebekah his mother, Behold, Esau my brother [is] a hairy man, and I [am] a smooth man:
Jacob te reponn a manman l, Rebecca: “Gade byen, Ésaü, frè m nan byen kouvri avèk plim, e po m byen swa.
12 My father peradventure will feel me, and I shall seem to him as a deceiver; and I shall bring a curse upon me, and not a blessing.
Petèt papa m va manyen m. Konsa, mwen ta vin tankou yon twonpè nan zye li, e mwen ta rale sou mwen yon madichon olye yon benediksyon.”
13 And his mother said unto him, Upon me [be] thy curse, my son: only obey my voice, and go fetch me [them].
Men manman li te di li: “Ke madichon ou tonbe sou mwen, fis mwen! Sèlman obeyi vwa m, e ale chache yo pou mwen.”
14 And he went, and fetched, and brought [them] to his mother: and his mother made savoury meat, such as his father loved.
Li te ale chache yo e te pote yo bay manman l. Manman l te fè yon manje bon gou jan papa l te renmen an.
15 And Rebekah took goodly raiment of her eldest son Esau, which [were] with her in the house, and put them upon Jacob her younger son:
Alò, Rebecca te pran pi bon vètman Ésaü a, pi gran fis li a, ki te avèk li nan kay la, e te mete yo sou Jacob, pi jèn fis li a.
16 And she put the skins of the kids of the goats upon his hands, and upon the smooth of his neck:
Li te mete po kabrit sou men li, ak nan pati kou li ki te swa.
17 And she gave the savoury meat and the bread, which she had prepared, into the hand of her son Jacob.
Osi li te bay Jacob, fis li a, manje bon gou a avèk pen ke li te fè a.
18 And he came unto his father, and said, My father: and he said, Here [am] I; who [art] thou, my son?
Konsa, li te vini kote papa l, e te di: “Papa m.” Epi li te di: “Men mwen. Kilès ou ye, fis mwen?”
19 And Jacob said unto his father, I [am] Esau thy firstborn; I have done according as thou badest me: arise, I pray thee, sit and eat of my venison, that thy soul may bless me.
Jacob te di a papa l: “Mwen menm se Ésaü, premye ne ou a. Mwen te fè sa ou te mande m nan. Leve, souple, e chita pou manje nan jibye mwen an, pou nanm ou kapab beni mwen.”
20 And Isaac said unto his son, How [is it] that thou hast found [it] so quickly, my son? And he said, Because the LORD thy God brought [it] to me.
Isaac te di fis li a: “Kòman ou reyisi fè sa vit konsa, fis mwen?” Epi li te di: “Paske SENYÈ a, Bondye ou a te fè sa rive m.”
21 And Isaac said unto Jacob, Come near, I pray thee, that I may feel thee, my son, whether thou [be] my very son Esau or not.
Alò, Isaac te di Jacob: “Souple, vin pi pre pou m kapab manyen ou, fis mwen, pou si ou se vrèman fis mwen an Ésaü, o non.”
22 And Jacob went near unto Isaac his father; and he felt him, and said, The voice [is] Jacob’s voice, but the hands [are] the hands of Esau.
Jacob te pwoche papa li. Li te manyen li, e te di: “Vwa a se vwa a Jacob, men men yo se men Ésaü.”:
23 And he discerned him not, because his hands were hairy, as his brother Esau’s hands: so he blessed him.
Li pa t rekonèt li, paske men li te kouvri avèk plim tankou men frè l la, Ésaü. Epi akoz sa, li te beni li.
24 And he said, [Art] thou my very son Esau? And he said, I [am].
Li te di: “Èske vrèman ou se fis mwen an, Ésaü?” Epi li te reponn: “Se Mwen.”
25 And he said, Bring [it] near to me, and I will eat of my son’s venison, that my soul may bless thee. And he brought [it] near to him, and he did eat: and he brought him wine, and he drank.
Konsa, li te di: “Pote ban mwen, e mwen va manje nan jibye fis mwen an, pou m kapab beni ou.” Li te pote ba li, e li te manje. Li te osi pote diven e li te bwè.
26 And his father Isaac said unto him, Come near now, and kiss me, my son.
Epi Isaac, papa li, te di li: “Souple, pwoche pou bo m, fis mwen.”
27 And he came near, and kissed him: and he smelled the smell of his raiment, and blessed him, and said, See, the smell of my son [is] as the smell of a field which the LORD hath blessed:
Li te vin pre, e te bo li. Lè li te santi sant vètman li, li te beni li, e te di: “Ou wè, sant fis mwen an tankou sant a yon chan ke SENYÈ a te beni.
28 Therefore God give thee of the dew of heaven, and the fatness of the earth, and plenty of corn and wine:
Koulye a, ke Bondye kapab ba ou lawouze syèl la, ak grès tè a, anpil sereyal chan avèk diven nèf.
29 Let people serve thee, and nations bow down to thee: be lord over thy brethren, and let thy mother’s sons bow down to thee: cursed [be] every one that curseth thee, and blessed [be] he that blesseth thee.
Ke anpil pèp vin sèvi ou, e ke nasyon yo bese devan ou. Vin mèt sou frè ou yo, e lese fis a manman ou yo vin bese a ou menm. Modi va sila ki modi ou yo. Beni va sila ki beni ou yo.”
30 And it came to pass, as soon as Isaac had made an end of blessing Jacob, and Jacob was yet scarce gone out from the presence of Isaac his father, that Esau his brother came in from his hunting.
Depi li rive ke Isaac te fin beni Jacob, e Jacob te apèn sòti nan prezans Isaac, papa l, Ésaü, frè l la te vin sòti nan fè lachas.
31 And he also had made savoury meat, and brought it unto his father, and said unto his father, Let my father arise, and eat of his son’s venison, that thy soul may bless me.
Li menm tou te fè manje bon gou, e li te pote l bay papa l. Li te di a papa l: “Ke papa m leve manje nan jibye fis li a, pou ou kapab beni mwen.”
32 And Isaac his father said unto him, Who [art] thou? And he said, I [am] thy son, thy firstborn Esau.
Isaac, papa li te di: “Kilès ou ye?” Konsa, li te di: “Mwen se fis ou, premye ne a, Ésaü.”
33 And Isaac trembled very exceedingly, and said, Who? where [is] he that hath taken venison, and brought [it] me, and I have eaten of all before thou camest, and have blessed him? yea, [and] he shall be blessed.
Alò, Isaac te vin tranble avèk vyolans, e te di: “Alò kilès sa ki te fè lachas jibye a, ki te pote ban mwen, ke m te manje tout li avan ou te vini, e ke mwen te beni li an? Wi, e li va beni.”
34 And when Esau heard the words of his father, he cried with a great and exceeding bitter cry, and said unto his father, Bless me, [even] me also, O my father.
Lè Ésaü te tande pawòl a papa li yo, li te kriye avèk gwo kri ak yon vwa byen fò, e li te di papa l: “Beni m tou o papa mwen.”
35 And he said, Thy brother came with subtilty, and hath taken away thy blessing.
Men li te reponn: “Frè ou a te vini twonpe m, e li te rache benediksyon ou an.”
36 And he said, Is not he rightly named Jacob? for he hath supplanted me these two times: he took away my birthright; and, behold, now he hath taken away my blessing. And he said, Hast thou not reserved a blessing for me?
Li te di: “Èske se pa t yon verite yo te nonmen li Jacob, paske li te pran plas mwen de fwa sa yo? Li te pran dwa nesans mwen an, e gade, koulye a li pran benediksyon mwen.” Epi li te di: “Èske ou pa t rezève yon benediksyon pou mwen?”
37 And Isaac answered and said unto Esau, Behold, I have made him thy lord, and all his brethren have I given to him for servants; and with corn and wine have I sustained him: and what shall I do now unto thee, my son?
Isaac te reponn Ésaü: “Gade byen, mwen te fè li mèt ou, e tout moun nan fanmi li, mwen te bay li yo kòm sèvitè. Avèk sereyal avèk diven nèf mwen te bay li soutyen. Alò, pou ou, kisa m kapab fè, fis mwen?”
38 And Esau said unto his father, Hast thou but one blessing, my father? bless me, [even] me also, O my father. And Esau lifted up his voice, and wept.
Ésaü te di a papa li: “Èske se yon sèl benediksyon ou genyen, papa mwen? Beni mwen menm tou, o papa m.” Konsa, Ésaü te leve vwa l e te kriye.
39 And Isaac his father answered and said unto him, Behold, thy dwelling shall be the fatness of the earth, and of the dew of heaven from above;
Alò, Isaac, papa l te reponn e te di li: “Gade byen, nan grès bon tè fètil ou va rete, e lwen lawouze k ap soti anwo syèl la.
40 And by thy sword shalt thou live, and shalt serve thy brother; and it shall come to pass when thou shalt have the dominion, that thou shalt break his yoke from off thy neck.
Pa nepe ou, ou va viv, e frè ou a, ou va sèvi li. Men li va rive ke lè ou vin toumante, ou va kase jouk la sou kou ou.”
41 And Esau hated Jacob because of the blessing wherewith his father blessed him: and Esau said in his heart, The days of mourning for my father are at hand; then will I slay my brother Jacob.
Epi Ésaü te pote yon rayisman kont Jacob akoz benediksyon an ke papa l te beni li. Konsa, Ésaü te di nan kè l: “Jou doulè pou mò papa m prèt pou fini, alò, mwen va touye frè m, Jacob.”
42 And these words of Esau her elder son were told to Rebekah: and she sent and called Jacob her younger son, and said unto him, Behold, thy brother Esau, as touching thee, doth comfort himself, [purposing] to kill thee.
Alò, lè pawòl pi gran fis la te rive a Rebecca, li te voye rele pi jèn fis li a, Jacob, e te di li: “Gade byen, frè ou a, Ésaü ap plenyen li menm de ou menm avèk entansyon pou touye ou.
43 Now therefore, my son, obey my voice; and arise, flee thou to Laban my brother to Haran;
Pou sa, fis mwen, obeyi vwa m, e leve sove ale Charan, vè frè mwen, Laban!
44 And tarry with him a few days, until thy brother’s fury turn away;
Rete avè l pandan kèk jou jiskaske kòlè frè ou a vin bese,
45 Until thy brother’s anger turn away from thee, and he forget [that] which thou hast done to him: then I will send, and fetch thee from thence: why should I be deprived also of you both in one day?
jiskaske kòlè frè ou a vin bese, e bliye sa ou te fè li a. Alò, mwen va voye chache ou la. Poukisa mwen ta oblije pèdi nou toude nan yon sèl jou?”
46 And Rebekah said to Isaac, I am weary of my life because of the daughters of Heth: if Jacob take a wife of the daughters of Heth, such as these [which are] of the daughters of the land, what good shall my life do me?
Rebecca te di Isaac: “Mwen bouke viv akoz fi Heth yo. Si Jacob pran yon fanm nan fi a Heth yo, tankou sila, nan fi peyi yo, ki byen ki kab rive nan vi m?”
