Genesis 27
1 And it comes to pass that Isaac [is] aged, and his eyes are too dim for seeing, and he calls [for] his older son Esau and says to him, “My son”; and he says to him, “Here I [am].”
Tango Izaki akomaki mobange mpe miso na ye ezalaki komona lisusu malamu te, abengaki Ezawu, mwana na ye ya liboso ya mobali. Alobaki na ye: — Mwana na ngai! Ezawu azongisaki: — Ngai oyo!
2 And he says, “Now behold, I have become aged, I have not known the day of my death;
Izaki alobaki: — Nakomi mobange mpe nayebi mokolo ya kufa na ngai te.
3 and now, please take up your instruments, your quiver, and your bow, and go out to the field, and hunt provision for me,
Yango wana, zwa sik’oyo mandoki na yo ya bokila, saki ya bokila mpe tolotolo; kende na zamba mpe bomela ngai nyama.
4 and make tasteful things for me, [such] as I have loved, and bring [them] to me, and I eat, so that my soul blesses you before I die.”
Okolambela ngai elubu ya kitoko ndenge nalingaka mpe okomemela ngai yango; nakolia mpo ete napambola yo liboso ete nakufa.
5 And Rebekah is listening while Isaac is speaking to his son Esau; and Esau goes to the field to hunt game—to bring in;
Nzokande, Rebeka azalaki koyoka makambo oyo Izaki azalaki koyebisa mwana na ye Ezawu. Tango Ezawu akendeki na zamba mpo na koboma nyama mpe kozonga na yango,
6 and Rebekah has spoken to her son Jacob, saying, “Behold, I have heard your father speaking to your brother Esau, saying,
Rebeka ayebisaki Jakobi, mwana na ye ya mibale: — Tala, nayokaki tata na yo koyebisa Ezawu, ndeko na yo:
7 Bring game for me, and make tasteful things for me, and I eat, and bless you before YHWH before my death.
« Memela ngai nyama! Okolambela ngai elubu ya kitoko, mpe nakolia yango mpo ete napambola yo na miso ya Yawe liboso ete nakufa. »
8 And now, my son, listen to my voice, to that which I am commanding you:
Mwana na ngai, yoka ngai malamu sik’oyo mpe sala makambo oyo nakoyebisa yo:
9 Now go to the flock, and take for me two good kids of the goats from there, and I make them tasteful things for your father, [such] as he has loved;
Kende na etonga ya bibwele mpe pona bana ntaba mibale mpe memela ngai yango mpo ete nalambela tata na yo elubu ya kitoko ndenge alingaka.
10 and you have taken [them] to your father, and he has eaten, so that his soul blesses you before his death.”
Bongo, okomemela yango tata na yo; akolia yango mpo ete apambola yo liboso ete akufa.
11 And Jacob says to his mother Rebekah, “Behold, my brother Esau [is] a hairy man, and I [am] a smooth man,
Jakobi azongiselaki Rebeka, mama na ye: — Ezawu, ndeko na ngai, azali na bapwale ebele na nzoto, kasi ngai nazali na yango te.
12 it may be my father feels me, and I have been in his eyes as a deceiver, and have brought on me disapproval, and not a blessing”;
Soki tata na ngai asimbi ngai, akososola ete nalingi kokosa ye; wana nakomibendela bilakeli mabe na esika ete napambolama.
13 and his mother says to him, “On me your disapproval, my son; only listen to my voice, and go, take for me.”
Mama na ye alobaki: — Mwana na ngai, tika ete bilakeli mabe yango ekweya likolo na ngai; yo, sala kaka makambo oyo ngai nayebisi yo.
14 And he goes, and takes, and brings to his mother, and his mother makes tasteful things, [such] as his father has loved;
Boye Jakobi akendeki, azwaki bana ntaba mpe amemaki yango epai ya mama na ye, mpe mama na ye alambaki elubu ya kitoko ndenge tata na ye azalaki kolinga.
15 and Rebekah takes the desirable garments of Esau her older son, which [are] with her in the house, and puts them on Jacob her younger son;
Bongo Rebeka azwaki na ndako, bilamba oyo elekaki kitoko kati na bilamba ya Ezawu, mwana na ye ya liboso, mpe alatisaki yango Jakobi, mwana na ye ya suka.
16 and she has put the skins of the kids of the goats on his hands, and on the smooth of his neck,
Azipaki ye maboko mpe kingo na poso ya bana ntaba.
17 and she gives the tasteful things, and the bread which she has made, into the hand of her son Jacob.
Bongo Rebeka apesaki na maboko ya Jakobi, mwana na ye, elubu ya kitoko mpe lipa oyo alambaki.
18 And he comes to his father and says, “My father”; and he says, “Here I [am]; who [are] you, my son?”
Jakobi akendeki epai ya tata na ye mpe alobaki: — Tata na ngai! Izaki azongisaki: — Ngai oyo, mwana na ngai; yo nani?
19 And Jacob says to his father, “I [am] Esau your firstborn; I have done as you have spoken to me; please rise, sit and eat of my game, so that your soul blesses me.”
Jakobi alobaki na tata na ye: — Nazali Ezawu, mwana na yo ya liboso. Nasali ndenge oyebisaki ngai. Nabondeli yo, lamuka, vanda mpe lia nyama, mpo ete opambola ngai.
20 And Isaac says to his son, “What [is] this you have hurried to find, my son?” And he says, “That which your God YHWH has caused to come before me.”
Izaki atunaki mwana na ye: — Mwana na ngai, osali ndenge nini mpo ete ozwa nyama noki? Jakobi azongisaki: — Ezali Yawe, Nzambe na yo, nde atindaki yango na nzela na ngai.
21 And Isaac says to Jacob, “Please come near, and I feel you, my son, whether you [are] he, my son Esau, or not.”
Izaki alobaki na Jakobi: — Mwana na ngai, pusana pembeni na ngai mpo ete nasimba yo mpe nayeba soki ozali solo mwana na ngai Ezawu.
22 And Jacob comes near to his father Isaac, and he feels him, and says, “The voice [is] the voice of Jacob, and the hands hands of Esau.”
Jakobi akendeki pembeni na ye, bongo Izaki asimbaki ye mpe alobaki: — Mongongo ezali ya Jakobi, kasi maboko ezali ya Ezawu.
23 And he has not discerned him, for his hands have been hairy, as the hands of his brother Esau, and he blesses him,
Tata na ye ayebaki ye te, pamba te maboko ya Jakobi ezalaki na bapwale lokola ya Ezawu, ndeko na ye; boye apambolaki ye.
24 and says, “You are he—my son Esau?” And he says, “I [am].”
Kasi liboso, atunaki ye: — Ozali penza mwana na ngai Ezawu? Jakobi azongisaki: — Iyo, ezali ngai solo.
25 And he says, “Bring [it] near to me, and I eat of my son’s game, so that my soul blesses you”; and he brings [it] near to him, and he eats; and he brings wine to him, and he drinks.
Izaki alobaki: — Mwana na ngai, memela ngai nyama na yo mpo ete nalia mpe napambola yo. Jakobi amemelaki ye nyama, mpe Izaki aliaki. Amemelaki ye lisusu masanga ya vino mpe amelaki.
26 And his father Isaac says to him, “Please come near and kiss me, my son”;
Sima, tata na ye, Izaki, alobaki na ye: — Mwana na ngai, yaka awa mpe pesa ngai beze.
27 and he comes near, and kisses him, and he smells the fragrance of his garments, and blesses him, and says, “See, the fragrance of my son [is] as the fragrance of a field which YHWH has blessed;
Jakobi akendeki mpe apesaki ye beze. Tango Izaki ayokaki solo ya bilamba na ye, apambolaki ye na maloba oyo: « Ah! Solo ya mwana na ngai ezali lokola solo ya bilanga oyo Yawe apamboli.
28 and God gives to you of the dew of the heavens, and of the fatness of the earth, and abundance of grain and wine;
Tika ete Nzambe apesa yo mvula ya likolo mpe mabele ya bozwi; apesa yo mbuma ya ble mpe vino ebele penza!
29 peoples serve you, and nations bow themselves to you, be mighty over your brothers, and the sons of your mother bow themselves to you; those who curse you [are] cursed, and those who bless you [are] blessed.”
Tika ete bikolo esalela yo, bato bafukamela yo! Zala mokonzi ya bandeko na yo ya mibali, mpe tika ete bana mibali ya mama na yo bafukama liboso na yo! Tika ete moto oyo akolakela yo mabe alakelama mabe; tika ete moto oyo akopambola yo apambolama! »
30 And it comes to pass, as Isaac has finished blessing Jacob, and Jacob is only just going out from the presence of his father Isaac, that his brother Esau has come in from his hunting;
Tango Izaki asilisaki kopambola ye, Jakobi atikaki tata na ye; bongo ndeko na ye, Ezawu, azongaki wuta na bokila.
31 and he also makes tasteful things, and brings to his father, and says to his father, “Let my father arise, and eat of his son’s game, so that your soul blesses me.”
Ye mpe alambaki elubu mpe amemaki yango epai ya tata na ye. Alobaki na ye: — Tata na ngai, telema mpe lia nyama na ngai mpo ete opambola ngai.
32 And his father Isaac says to him, “Who [are] you?” And he says, “I [am] your son, your firstborn, Esau”;
Tata na ye, Izaki, atunaki ye: — Yo nani? Azongisaki: — Ngai Ezawu, mwana na yo ya liboso.
33 and Isaac trembles a very great trembling and says, “Who, now, [is] he who has provided game, and brings to me, and I eat of all before you come in, and I bless him? Indeed, he is blessed.”
Bongo Izaki alengaki makasi mpe alobaki: — Nani wana abomaki nyama mpe amemelaki ngai yango? Naliaki yango liboso ete yo oya, mpe napambolaki ye. Boye apambolami solo!
34 When Esau hears the words of his father, then he cries a very great and bitter cry, and says to his father, “Bless me, me also, O my father”;
Tango Ezawu ayokaki maloba ya tata na ye, atombolaki mongongo makasi mpe agangaki. Alobaki na tata na ye: — Ah! Tata na ngai, pambola ngai, pambola ngai mpe lokola!
35 and he says, “Your brother has come with subtlety, and takes your blessing.”
Izaki alobaki: — Ndeko na yo ayaki na mayele mabe, ayibi mapamboli na yo.
36 And he says, “Is it because he whose name is called Jacob takes me by the heel these two times? He has taken my birthright; and behold, now he has taken my blessing”; he also says, “Have you not kept back a blessing for me?”
Ezawu alobaki: — Mpo ete kombo na ye ezali « Jakobi, » yango wana akosi ngai mbala mibale? Ya liboso, azwaki boyaya na ngai, mpe tala sik’oyo azwi lisusu mapamboli na ngai! Bongo atunaki: — Boni, obombelaki ngai mapamboli te?
37 And Isaac answers and says to Esau, “Behold, a mighty one have I set him over you, and all his brothers have I given to him for servants, and [with] grain and wine have I sustained him; and for you now, what will I do, my son?”
Izaki azongiselaki Ezawu: — Tala, nakomisi ye nkolo na yo mpe napesi ye bandeko na ye nyonso lokola basali; napesi ye ble mpe vino. Mwana na ngai, nasala lisusu nini mpo na yo?
38 And Esau says to his father, “One blessing have you my father? Bless me, me also, O my father”; and Esau lifts up his voice, and weeps.
Ezawu alobaki na tata na ye: — Tata na ngai, ozalaki kaka na lipamboli moko wana? Tata na ngai, pambola ngai mpe! Ezawu atombolaki mongongo na ye mpe alelaki makasi.
39 And his father Isaac answers and says to him, “Behold, of the fatness of the earth is your dwelling, and of the dew of the heavens from above;
Tata na ye, Izaki, alobaki na ye: — Okovanda mosika ya mabele oyo ebotaka malamu, mpe mosika ya mvula ya likolo.
40 and by your sword you live, and your brother serves you; and it has come to pass, when you rule, that you have broken his yoke from off your neck.”
Okobika na nzela ya mopanga na yo mpe okosalela ndeko na yo ya mobali. Kasi tango okotambola bipai na bipai, okobuka ekangiseli oyo akotia yo na kingo.
41 And Esau hates Jacob, because of the blessing with which his father blessed him, and Esau says in his heart, “The days of mourning [for] my father draw near, and I slay my brother Jacob.”
Ezawu ayinaki Jakobi likolo ya mapamboli oyo azwaki epai ya tata na ye mpe amilobelaki: « Etikali moke tata na ngai akufa; bongo nakoboma ndeko na ngai Jakobi. »
42 And the words of Esau her older son are declared to Rebekah, and she sends and calls for Jacob her younger son, and says to him, “Behold, your brother Esau is comforting himself in regard to you—to slay you;
Tango Rebeka asosolaki makanisi ya Ezawu, mwana na ye ya liboso, abengaki Jakobi, mwana na ye ya suka, mpe alobaki na ye: « Tala, Ezawu, ndeko na yo, azali koluka koboma yo.
43 and now, my son, listen to my voice, and rise, flee for yourself to my brother Laban, to Haran,
Mwana na ngai, yoka ngai sik’oyo mpe sala makambo oyo nazali koyebisa yo: ‹ Longwa awa mpe kima na mboka Arani, epai ya ndeko na ngai Labani.
44 and you have dwelt with him some days, until your brother’s fury turns back,
Vanda mwa mikolo epai na ye kino kanda ya ndeko na yo ekosila.
45 until your brother’s anger turns back from you, and he has forgotten that which you have done to him, and I have sent and taken you from there; why am I bereaved even of you both the same day?”
Tango kanda na ye ekosila mpe akobosana makambo oyo osalaki ye, nakotindela yo maloba mpo ete olongwa kuna mpe ozonga. Mpo na nini nazanga bino mibale mokolo moko? › »
46 And Rebekah says to Isaac, “I have been disgusted with my life because of the presence of the daughters of Heth; if Jacob takes a wife of the daughters of Heth, like these—from the daughters of the land—why do I live?”
Rebeka akendeki koyebisa Izaki: « Nalembi mokili likolo ya basi oyo ya mokili ya Iti. Soki Jakobi abali mwasi kati na bana basi ya mokili oyo, tina nazala na bomoi ekozala lisusu te. »
