Genesis 27
1 It happened, that when Isaac was old, and his eyesight was failing so that he could not see, he called Esau his elder son, and said to him, "My son?" He said to him, "Here I am."
| وَلَمَّا شَاخَ إِسْحاقُ وَضَعُفَ بَصَرُهُ اسْتَدْعَى ابْنَهُ الأَكْبَرَ عِيسُو وَقَالَ لَهُ: «يَا بُنَيَّ، | ١ |
2 He said, "Look, I am old now. I do not know the day of my death.
| هَا أَنَا قَدْ شِخْتُ وَلَسْتُ أَعْرِفُ مَتَى يَحِينُ يَوْمُ وَفَاتِي. | ٢ |
3 Now therefore, please take your weapons, your quiver and your bow, and go out to the field, and hunt down a wild animal for me.
| فَالآنَ خُذْ عُدَّتَكَ: جُعْبَتَكَ وَقَوْسَكَ، وَامْضِ إِلَى الْبَرِّيَّةِ وَاقْتَنِصْ لِي صَيْداً. | ٣ |
4 Make me the tasty food that I love and bring it to me to eat, so that I may bless you before I die."
| وَجَهِّزْ لِي طَعَاماً شَهِيًّا كَمَا أُحِبُّ وَائْتِنِي بِهِ لِآكُلَ، لِتُبَارِكَكَ نَفْسِي قَبْلَ أَنْ أَمُوتَ». | ٤ |
5 Rebekah heard when Isaac spoke to Esau his son. And Esau went out to the field to hunt for a wild animal and bring it back to his father.
| وَسَمِعَتْ رِفْقَةُ حَدِيثَ إِسْحاقَ لابْنِهِ عِيسُو. فَعِنْدَمَا انْطَلَقَ عِيسُو إِلَى الْبَرِّيَّةِ لِيَصْطَادَ صَيْداً وَيَأْتِيَ بِهِ. | ٥ |
6 And Rebekah spoke to Jacob her son, saying, "Look, I heard your father speak to Esau your brother, saying,
| قَالَتْ رِفْقَةُ لابْنِهَا يَعْقُوبَ: «سَمِعْتُ أَبَاكَ يَقُولُ لِعِيسُو أَخِيكَ: | ٦ |
7 'Bring me a wild animal and prepare for me some tasty food, that I may eat it and bless you in my presence before my death.'
| اقْتَنِصْ لِي صَيْداً، وَجَهِّزْ لِي أَطْعِمَةً شَهِيَّةً لِآكُلَ وَأُبَارِكَكَ أَمَامَ الرَّبِّ قَبْلَ مَوْتِي. | ٧ |
8 Now therefore, my son, obey my voice according to that which I command you.
| وَالآنَ يَا بُنَيَّ أَطِعْ قَوْلِي فِي مَا آمُرُكَ بِهِ، | ٨ |
9 Go now to the flock, and get me from there two choice young goats. I will prepare them in a tasty way for your father, the way he likes it.
| وَاذْهَبْ إِلَى قَطِيعِ الْمَاشِيَةِ، وَاخْتَرْ جَدْيَيْنِ لأُجَهِّزَ لأَبِيكَ أَطْعِمَةً شَهِيَّةً كَمَا يُحِبُّ، | ٩ |
10 You shall bring it to your father, that he may eat, so that he may bless you before his death."
| تُقَدِّمُهَا لأَبِيكَ لِيَأْكُلَ، فَيُبَارِكَكَ قَبْلَ وَفَاتِهِ». | ١٠ |
11 Jacob said to Rebekah his mother, "Look, Esau my brother is a hairy man, and I am a smooth man.
| فَقَالَ يَعْقُوبُ لِرِفْقَةَ أُمِّهِ: «أَخِي عِيسُو رَجُلٌ أَشْعَرُ، وَأَنَا رَجُلٌ أَمْلَسُ. | ١١ |
12 What if my father touches me? I will seem to him as a deceiver, and I would bring a curse on myself, and not a blessing."
| وَقَدْ يَجُسُّنِي أَبِي فَيَتَبَيَّنُ خِدَاعِي، وَأَسْتَجْلِبُ عَلَى نَفْسِي لَعْنَةً لَا بَرَكَةً». | ١٢ |
13 His mother said to him, "Let your curse be on me, my son. Only obey my voice, and go get them for me."
| فَقَالَتْ لَهُ أُمُّهُ: «لَعْنَتُكَ عَلَيَّ يَا بُنَيَّ، فَأَطِعْ قَوْلِي فَقَطْ، وَاذْهَبْ وَأَحْضِرِ الْجَدْيَيْنِ لِي». | ١٣ |
14 He went, and got them, and brought them to his mother. His mother prepared some tasty food, just the way his father liked it.
| فَذَهَبَ وَاخْتَارَهُمَا وَأَحْضَرَهُمَا لأُمِّهِ، فَأَعَدَّتْ رِفْقَةُ الأَطْعِمَةَ الْمُطَيَّبَةَ كَمَا يُحِبُّ أَبُوهُ | ١٤ |
15 Rebekah took the good clothes of Esau, her elder son, which were with her in the house, and put them on Jacob, her younger son.
| وَتَنَاوَلَتْ ثِيَابَ بِكْرِهَا عِيسُو الْفَاخِرَةَ الْمَوْجُودَةَ عِنْدَهَا فِي الْبَيْتِ وَأَلْبَسَتْ يَعْقُوبَ ابْنَهَا الأَصْغَرَ، | ١٥ |
16 She put the skins of the young goats on his hands, and on the smooth of his neck.
| وَكَذَلِكَ غَطَّتْ يَدَيْهِ وَمَلاسَةَ عُنُقِهِ بِجِلْدِ الْجَدْيَيْنِ. | ١٦ |
17 She handed the tasty food and the bread which she had prepared to her son Jacob.
| وَأَعْطَتْهُ مَا أَعَدَّتْهُ مِنَ الأَطْعِمَةِ الشَّهِيَّةِ وَالْخُبْزِ. | ١٧ |
18 He came to his father, and said, "My father?" He said, "Here I am. Who are you, my son?"
| فَأَقْبَلَ عَلَى أَبِيهِ وَقَالَ: «يَا أَبِي». فَأَجَابَهُ: «نَعَمْ يَا ابْنِي، مَنْ أَنْتَ؟» | ١٨ |
19 Jacob said to his father, "I am Esau your firstborn. I have done what you asked me to do. Please sit up and eat what I hunted so that you can bless me."
| فَقَالَ يَعْقُوبُ: «أَنَا عِيسُو بِكْرُكَ. وَقَدْ فَعَلْتُ كَمَا طَلَبْتَ، وَالآنَ قُمْ وَاجْلِسْ وَكُلْ مِنْ صَيْدِي حَتَّى تُبَارِكَنِي». | ١٩ |
20 Isaac said to his son, "How is it that you have found it so quickly, my son?" He said, "Because your God gave me success."
| فَقَالَ إِسْحَاقُ: «كَيْفَ اسْتَطَعْتَ أَنْ تَجِدَ صَيْداً بِمِثْلِ هَذِهِ السُّرْعَةِ يَا وَلَدِي؟» فَأَجَابَهُ: «لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ إِلَهَكَ قَدْ يَسَّرَ لِي ذَلِكَ». | ٢٠ |
21 Isaac said to Jacob, "Please come near, that I may feel you, my son, whether you are really my son Esau or not."
| وَقَالَ إِسْحاقُ: «اقْتَرِبْ مِنِّي لأَجُسَّكَ يَا ابْنِي لأَرَى إِنْ كُنْتَ حَقّاً ابْنِي عِيسُو أَمْ لا». | ٢١ |
22 Jacob went near to Isaac his father. He felt him, and said, "The voice is Jacob's voice, but the hands are the hands of Esau."
| فَدَنَا يَعْقُوبُ مِنْ أَبِيهِ إِسْحاقَ فَجَسَّهُ وَقَالَ: «الصَّوْتُ صَوْتُ يَعْقُوبَ، أَمَّا الْيَدَانِ فَهُمَا يَدَا عِيسُو». | ٢٢ |
23 He did not recognize him, because his hands were hairy like those of his brother Esau. So he blessed him.
| وَلَمْ يَعْرِفْهُ لأَنَّ يَدَيْهِ كَانَتَا مُشْعِرَتَيْنِ كَيَدَيْ أَخِيهِ عِيسُو، فَبَارَكَهُ، | ٢٣ |
24 He said, "Are you really my son Esau?" He said, "I am."
| وَسَأَلَ: «هَلْ أَنْتَ ابْنِي عِيسُو؟» فَأَجَابَ: «أَنَا هُوَ». | ٢٤ |
25 He said, "Bring it near to me, and I will eat of what my son caught so that I can bless you." He brought it near to him, and he ate. He brought him wine, and he drank.
| ثُمَّ قَالَ: «قَدِّمْ لِي مِنْ صَيْدِكَ حَتَّى آكُلَ وَأُبَارِكَكَ». فَأَحْضَرَ يَعْقُوبُ إِلَيْهِ الطَّعَامَ فَأَكَلَ ثُمَّ قَدَّمَ لَهُ خَمْراً فَشَرِبَ، | ٢٥ |
26 His father Isaac said to him, "Come near now, and kiss me, my son."
| فَقَالَ لَهُ إِسْحاقُ أَبُوهُ: «تَعَالَ وَقَبِّلْنِي يَا وَلَدِي». | ٢٦ |
27 He came near, and kissed him. He smelled the scent of his clothing, and blessed him, and said, "Look, the scent of my son is as the scent of a field which God has blessed.
| فَاقْتَرَبَ مِنْهُ وَقَبَّلَهُ، فَتَنَسَّمَ رَائِحَةَ ثِيَابِهِ وَبَارَكَهُ قَائِلاً: «هَا إِنَّ رَائِحَةَ ابْنِي كَرَائِحَةِ حَقْلٍ بَارَكَهُ الرَّبُّ، | ٢٧ |
28 God give you of the dew of the sky, of the fatness of the earth, and plenty of grain and new wine.
| فَلْيُنْعِمْ عَلَيْكَ الرَّبُّ مِنْ نَدَى السَّمَاءِ وَمِنْ خَيْرَاتِ الأَرْضِ، فَيُكَثِّرُ لَكَ الْحِنْطَةَ وَالْخَمْرَ. | ٢٨ |
29 Let peoples serve you, and nations bow down to you. Be lord over your brothers. Let your mother's sons bow down to you. Cursed be everyone who curses you. Blessed be everyone who blesses you."
| لِتَخْدُمْكَ الشُّعُوبُ، وَتَسْجُدْ لَكَ الْقَبَائِلُ، لِتَكُنْ سَيِّداً عَلَى إِخْوَتِكَ. وَبَنُو أُمِّكِ لَكَ يَنْحَنُونَ. وَلْيَكُنْ لاعِنُوكَ مَلْعُونِينَ، وَمُبَارِكُوكَ مُبَارَكِينَ». | ٢٩ |
30 It happened, as soon as Isaac had finished blessing Jacob, and Jacob had just left the presence of Isaac his father, that Esau his brother came in from his hunting.
| وَلَمَّا فَرَغَ إِسْحاقُ مِنْ مُبَارَكَةِ يَعْقُوبَ، وَخَرَجَ يَعْقُوبُ مِنْ عِنْدِ أَبِيهِ، رَجَعَ عِيسُو مِنْ صَيْدِهِ، | ٣٠ |
31 He also made some tasty food, and brought it to his father. He said to his father, "Let my father get up and eat of what his son caught, so that you may bless me."
| فَجَهَّزَ هُوَ أَيْضاً أَطْعِمَةً طَيِّبَةً وَأَحْضَرَهَا إِلَى أَبِيهِ وَقَالَ: «لِيَقُمْ أَبِي وَيَأْكُلْ مِنْ صَيْدِ ابْنِهِ فَتُبَارِكَنِي نَفْسُكَ». | ٣١ |
32 Isaac his father said to him, "Who are you?" He said, "I am your son, your firstborn, Esau."
| فَقَالَ إِسْحاقُ: «مَنْ أَنْتَ؟» فَأَجَابَهُ: «أَنَا ابْنُكَ بِكْرُكَ عِيسُو». | ٣٢ |
33 Isaac trembled violently, and said, "Who was it then that hunted an animal and brought it to me, and I ate it all before you came, and have blessed him? Yes, he will be blessed."
| فَارْتَعَدَ إِسْحاقُ بِعُنْفٍ وَقَالَ: «مَنْ هُوَ إِذاً الَّذِي اصْطَادَ صَيْداً وَأَحْضَرَهُ إِلَيَّ فَأَكَلْتُ مِنَ الْكُلِّ قَبْلَ أَنْ تَجِيءَ، وَبَارَكْتُهُ؟ وَحَقّاً يَكُونُ مُبَارَكاً». | ٣٣ |
34 When Esau heard the words of his father, he cried out loudly and bitterly, and said to his father, "Bless me, even me also, my father."
| فَمَا إِنْ سَمِعَ عِيسُو كَلامَ أَبِيهِ حَتَّى أَطْلَقَ صَرْخَةً هَائِلَةً وَمُرَّةً جِدّاً وَقَالَ: «بَارِكْنِي أَنَا أَيْضاً يَا أَبِي». | ٣٤ |
35 He said, "Your brother came with deceit, and has taken away your blessing."
| فَأَجَابَ: «لَقَدْ مَكَرَ بِي أَخُوكَ وَسَلَبَ بَرَكَتَكَ». | ٣٥ |
36 He said, "Isn't he rightly named Jacob? For he has taken what should have been mine these two times. He took away my birthright. Look, now he has taken away my blessing." He said, "Haven't you reserved a blessing for me?"
| فَقَالَ: «أَلَمْ يُدْعَ اسْمُهُ يَعْقُوبَ؟ لَقَدْ تَعَقَّبَنِي مَرَّتَيْنِ: أَخَذَ بَكُورِيَّتِي، وَهَا هُوَ يَسْلُبُنِي الآنَ بَرَكَتِي». ثُمَّ قَالَ: «أَمَا احْتَفَظْتَ لِي بِبَرَكَةٍ؟» | ٣٦ |
37 Isaac answered Esau, "Look, I have made him your lord, and I have made all of his brothers his servants. And I have sustained him with grain and new wine. What then can I do for you, my son?"
| فَأَجَابَ إِسْحاقُ: «لَقَدْ جَعَلْتُهُ سَيِّداً لَكَ، وَصَيَّرْتُ جَمِيعَ إِخْوَتِهِ لَهْ خُدَّاماً، وَبِالْحِنْطَةِ وَالْخَمْرِ أَمْدَدْتُهُ. فَمَاذَا أَفْعَلُ لَكَ الآنَ يَا وَلَدِي؟». | ٣٧ |
38 Esau said to his father, "Have you but one blessing, my father? Bless me, even me also, my father." Esau lifted up his voice, and wept.
| فَقَالَ عِيسُو: «أَلَكَ بَرَكَةٌ وَاحِدَةٌ فَقَطْ يَا أَبِي؟ بَارِكْنِي أَنَا أَيْضاً يَا أَبِي». وَأَجْهَشَ عِيسُو بِالْبُكَاءِ بِصَوْتٍ عَالٍ. | ٣٨ |
39 Isaac his father answered him, "Look, of the fatness of the earth will be your dwelling, and of the dew of the sky from above.
| فَأَجَابَهُ أَبُوهُ: «هَا مَسْكَنُكَ يَكُونُ فِي أَرْضٍ جَدْبَاءَ لَا يَهْطِلُ عَلَيْهَا نَدَى السَّمَاءِ. | ٣٩ |
40 By your sword will you live, and you will serve your brother. It will happen, when you will break loose, that you shall shake his yoke from off your neck."
| بِسَيْفِكَ تَعِيشُ وَلأَخِيكَ تَكُونُ عَبْداً، وَلَكِنْ حِينَ تَجْمَحُ تُحَطِّمُ نِيرَهُ عَنْ عُنْقِكَ». | ٤٠ |
41 Esau hated Jacob because of the blessing with which his father blessed him. Esau said in his heart, "The days of mourning for my father are at hand. Then I will kill my brother Jacob."
| وَحَقَدَ عِيسُو عَلَى يَعْقُوبَ مِنْ أَجْلِ مَا نَالَهُ مِنْ بَرَكَةِ أَبِيهِ. فَنَاجَى نَفْسَهُ: «قَرِيباً يَمُوتُ أَبِي، وَبَعْدَئِذٍ أَقْتُلُ أَخِي يَعْقُوبَ». | ٤١ |
42 The words of Esau, her elder son, were told to Rebekah. She sent and called Jacob, her younger son, and said to him, "Look, your brother Esau comforts himself about you by planning to kill you.
| فَبَلَغَ رِفْقَةَ وَعِيدُ عِيسُو ابْنِهَا الأَكْبَرِ، فَأَرْسَلَتْ وَاسْتَدْعَتْ يَعْقُوبَ ابْنَهَا الأَصْغَرَ وَقَالَتْ لَهُ: «عِيسُو يُخَطِّطُ لِقَتْلِكَ. | ٤٢ |
43 Now therefore, my son, obey my voice. Arise, flee to Laban, my brother, in Haran.
| وَالآنَ يَا ابْنِي أَصْغِ لِقَوْلِي، وَقُمِ اهْرُبْ إِلَى أَخِي لابَانَ إِلَى حَارَانَ، | ٤٣ |
44 Stay with him a few days, until your brother's fury turns away;
| وَامْكُثْ عِنْدَهُ أَيَّاماً قَلائِلَ رَيْثَمَا يَهْدَأُ سُخْطُ أَخِيكَ. | ٤٤ |
45 until your brother's anger against you subsides, and he forgets what you have done to him. Then I will send for you and get you from there. Why should I lose both of you in one day?"
| وَمَتَى سَكَنَ غَضَبُهُ وَنَسِيَ مَا صَنَعْتَ بِهِ، عِنْدَئِذٍ أَبْعَثُ إِلَيْكَ لِتَعُودَ مِنْ هُنَاكَ. فَلِمَاذَا أُحْرَمُ مِنْكُمَا كِلَيْكُمَا فِي يَوْمٍ وَاحِدٍ؟». | ٤٥ |
46 Rebekah said to Isaac, "I loathe my life because of the daughters of Heth. If Jacob takes a wife from the daughters of Heth, like these, from the daughters of the land, what good is my life?"
| ثُمَّ قَالَتْ رِفْقَةُ لإِسْحاقَ: «قَدْ كَرِهْتُ حَيَاتِي مِنْ جَرَّاءِ الْبَنَاتِ الْحِثِّيَّاتِ، فَإِنْ تَزَوَّجَ يَعْقُوبُ مِنِ الْحِثِّيَّاتِ بَنَاتِ هَذِهِ الأَرْضِ الْمُمَاثِلاتِ لِزَوْجَتَيْ عِيسُو، فَإِنَّ مَوْتِي خَيْرٌ مِنْ حَيَاتِي». | ٤٦ |
