< 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].”
Ie roñoñe añe, naho fa bey t’Ietsàke naho nitalo fihaino vaho tsy nahavazoho soa, le kinanji’e t’i Esave zoken’ ana’e ami’ty ty hoe, O anako, le tinoi’e ty hoe, Intoy iraho.
2 And he says, “Now behold, I have become aged, I have not known the day of my death;
Hoe re, Hehe te bey Iraho henaneo; naho amoeako ty andro hikenkañako,
3 and now, please take up your instruments, your quiver, and your bow, and go out to the field, and hunt provision for me,
aa ehe rambeso o harao’oo: ty kotra’o naho fale’o le akia mb’an-kivok’ añe hitsindroke hena ho ahiko.
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.”
Le anokono mahakama mafiry, amy teakoy, le anjotso ho haneko, hitatàko azo an-troko aolo’ ty hivetrahako.
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;
Jinanji’ i Ribkae ty nataon-drae’e amy ana’e Esave. Aa naho niavotse mb’ am-patrañe añe t’i Esave hitsindroke hanesea’e.
6 and Rebekah has spoken to her son Jacob, saying, “Behold, I have heard your father speaking to your brother Esau, saying,
le hoe t’i Ribkae am’ Iakòbe ana’e, Inao, tsinanoko amy saontsin-drae’o aman-drahalahi’o Esavey, ty hoe,
7 Bring game for me, and make tasteful things for me, and I eat, and bless you before YHWH before my death.
Añendeso tsindroke, le anokono haneñe mafiry hihinanako hitatàko azo añatrefa’ Iehovà aolo’ ty hikenkañako.
8 And now, my son, listen to my voice, to that which I am commanding you:
Inao arè, anako, haoño o volam-pamantohako azoo.
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;
Akia mb’amy lia raikey le andeso vik’ ose roe hañalankañako mahakama mafiry ho an-drae’o, amy tea’ey;
10 and you have taken [them] to your father, and he has eaten, so that his soul blesses you before his death.”
le ihe ty hanjotso aze aman-drae’o hikama’e, hitata’e aolo’ ty hiho­maha’e.
11 And Jacob says to his mother Rebekah, “Behold, my brother Esau [is] a hairy man, and I [am] a smooth man,
Fa hoe ka t’Iakòbe amy Ribkae rene’e, Oniño te ondaty volovoloeñe t’i Esave rahalahiko; izaho lahilahy pando;
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”;
hera hitsapa ahy t’i raeko le hatao’e te nirabioñeko, le mone fatse ty hanoa’e fa tsy tata.
13 and his mother says to him, “On me your disapproval, my son; only listen to my voice, and go, take for me.”
Hoe t’i rene’e ama’e, Ee te ho amako ze o fatse’o zao, anako; fe oriho avao i volakoy, akia, angalao ho ahy.
14 And he goes, and takes, and brings to his mother, and his mother makes tasteful things, [such] as his father has loved;
Aa le nimb’eo re nangalake naho nendese’e aman-drene’e; vaho nihalankañen-drene’e ty mahakama mafiry manahake ty teàn-drae’e.
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;
Na­lae’ i Ribkae amy zao ty sarimbo fanjaka’ i Esave zoke’ey ze tama’e añ’ an­jomba’e ao vaho nampiombea’e amy Iakòbe, ana-tsitso’e
16 and she has put the skins of the kids of the goats on his hands, and on the smooth of his neck,
le napeta’e an-tsira’e ty holi’ i vik’ osey naho ami’ty malama am-pititia’e eo.
17 and she gives the tasteful things, and the bread which she has made, into the hand of her son Jacob.
Tinolo’e am-pità’ Iakòbe ana’e i mahakama mafiriy naho ty mofo hinalanka’e.
18 And he comes to his father and says, “My father”; and he says, “Here I [am]; who [are] you, my son?”
Le nizilik’ aman-drae’e ao re nanao ty hoe, O aba, le tinoi’e ty hoe, Intoy iraho; Ia irehe, anako?
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.”
Hoe t’Iakòbe aman-drae’e, Izaho i Esave Ta­ñolo­ñoloña’o. Fa nanoeko iaby i nañiraha’o ahi­y, mitroara arè, miambesara vaho ikamao o tsindrokoo, hitatà’ ty arofo’o.
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.”
Aa hoe t’Ietsàk’ amy ana’ey, Akore anako, t’ie nahatrea anianik’ avao? Hoe ty natoi’e: Nampitotohe’ ­Iehovà Andrianañahare’o amako.
21 And Isaac says to Jacob, “Please come near, and I feel you, my son, whether you [are] he, my son Esau, or not.”
Le hoe t’Ietsàk’ am’Iakòbe, Harineo, hitsapako azo, anako, haha­ren­drehako te toe i Esave anako ke tsie.
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.”
Aa le nitotok’ aman-drae’e Ietsàke t’Iakòbe, le nitsa­pae’e vaho hoe ty asa’e, Feo’ Iakòbe o feo zao, fe taña’ i Esave o taña’eo.
23 And he has not discerned him, for his hands have been hairy, as the hands of his brother Esau, and he blesses him,
Le tsy nifohi’e amy te nivolovolo­eñe manahake o fitàn-joke’e Esaveo o taña’eo, aa le tinata’e.
24 and says, “You are he—my son Esau?” And he says, “I [am].”
Hoe re, Toe anako Esave v’i-heo? Le tinoi’e ty hoe: Izaho.
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.
Aa hoe re, Anjotso hihinanako i tsindron’ anakoy vaho hitat’ azo ty troko. Aa le nazotso’e naho nikamae’e naho nanjo­tsoa’e divay vaho ninoma’e.
26 And his father Isaac says to him, “Please come near and kiss me, my son”;
Le hoe ty rae’e Ietsàk’ ama’e, Mañarinea ahy anako vaho orofo.
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;
Aa le niharinea’e naho norofa’e, le nantsoñe’e ty hañi’ o lamba’eo vaho nitata’e ami’ty hoe, Inao ty hañin’ anako manahake ty harifondrifon-kivoke nitahie’ Iehovà.
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;
Ee te hanoloran’ Añahare azo ty zonon-dikerañe, naho ty havondra’ ty tane toy vaho ampemba naho-divay vao maha-eneñe.
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.”
Lonike te hitoroñe azo ondatio, vaho hibokoboko ama’o o rofokoo. Feleho o rahalahi’oo, le hiondrek’ ama’o o anan-drene’oo. Fonga afàtse ze mamatse azo, Hene tahieñe ze mitat’ azo!
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;
Ie nifonire’Ietsàke i fitata’e Iakòbey, vaho didy tsy tafakatse boak’ añatrefan-drae’e t’Iakòbe, te pok’eo t’i Esave amy tsindro’ey.
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.”
Ie ka ro naña­lankañe mahakama mafiry vaho nazo­tso’e aman-drae’e ami’ty hoe, Mitroara ry Raeko, ikamao ty tsindron’ ana’o, hitata’ ty arofo’o.
32 And his father Isaac says to him, “Who [are] you?” And he says, “I [am] your son, your firstborn, Esau”;
Ia v’iheo, hoe t’Ietsàke rae’e ama’e. Tinoi’e ty hoe, Ana’o iraho, i Esave tañoloñoloña’oy.
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.”
Nihobitse an-gebahebake t’Ietsàke, nanao ty hoe: Ia arè i nitsindroke hena naho nanjotso amakoy, ie fonga nihaneko aolo’ ty niavia’o etoañe vaho fa nitataeko?—eka ho soa tata re!
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”;
Ie nahajanjiñe i saontsin-drae’ey t’i Esave, le nampipoñake fañgoihoy añ’ afero naho nanao ty hoe aman-drae’e, Tatao iraho, izaho ka, ry Raeko!
35 and he says, “Your brother has come with subtlety, and takes your blessing.”
Fa hoe re, Niavy etoa am-pamañahiañe ty zai’o, vaho tinava’e i tata’oy.
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?”
Hoe re, Tsy to hao i añara’e, Iakobey, kanao indroe ty nañaramamoa’e an-tomitse. Sininto’e amako ty hatañoloñoloñako, le hehe te tinava’e aniany ka i tatakoy. Le hoe re, Tsy nañaja’o tata hao iraho?
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?”
Hoe ty natoi’ Ietsàk’ amy Esave, Ingo te nanoeko talè’o re vaho hene natoloko ama’e o rahalahi’eo ho mpitoro’e, le ampemba naho divay vao ty namaha­nako aze. Inoñe ka ty hanoeko ama’o, anako?
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.
Hoe t’i Esave aman-drae’e, Tsy aman-tata raik’ avao hao irehe, ry Aba? Tatao iraho, izaho ka, ry raeko! Naonjo’ i Esave amy zao ty fiarañanaña’e le nangololoike ty rovetse.
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;
Le hoe ty nitoiña’ Ietsàke rae’e: Ingo, hihànkañe ami’ty havondra’ ty tane toy ty akiba’o, naho amo zonon-dikerañe añ’ abo eñe.
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.”
Ty fibara’o ro hiveloma’o, le ho toroñe’o ty zai’o, fe añe irehe ho tsitoboboly, vaho hapoza’o ty joka an-kàto’o eo.
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.”
Nalaim-bintañ’amy Iakòbe amy zao t’i Esave ty amy tata nitatàn-drae’e azey, le hoe ty natao’ i Esave an-tro’e ao, Mito­toke ty andro fandalàñe an-draeko; le ho vonoeko t’Iakòbe zaiko.
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;
F’ie natalily amy Ribkae i volan-joken’ ana’ey; le nirahe’e ty hitoka Iakòbe tsitson’ ana’e, le hoe re tama’e, Inao mameren-troke t’i Esave zoke’o ty ama’o ami’ty fikililia’e hañè-doza ama’o.
43 and now, my son, listen to my voice, and rise, flee for yourself to my brother Laban, to Haran,
Ie amy zao ry anako, oriho o volakoo, le miongaha, mibioña mb’ amy Labàne rahalahiko e Kharane añe,
44 and you have dwelt with him some days, until your brother’s fury turns back,
le molia ama’e ao heike, ampara’ te mitolike ty fitrotrofiahan-joke’o,
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?”
ampara’ te hiesoñe ama’o ty haviñeran-joke’o vaho handikofa’e i nanoe’o ama’ey; le mbe hampihitri­feko irehe, hampolieko boak’ añe. Ataoko akore te ho nirerek’ amako ami’ty andro raike nahareo roroe?
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?”
Le hoe t’i Ribkae am’ Ietsàke, Mañalike ty haveloko o anak’ampela Kheteo. Aa naho mañenga amo anak’ ampela Kheteo t’Iakòbe, manahake o anak’ampela an-tane atoio le ho inoñ’amako ty fiaiko?
