< 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."
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 He said, "Look, I am old now. 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 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.
De haꞌi tee-tande mara, fo muu sombu banda fui esa fee au dei.
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."
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 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.
Boe ma, Esau lao neu sombu banda. Te Ribka o rena Isak oꞌola na boe.
6 And Rebekah spoke to Jacob her son, saying, "Look, I heard your father speak to Esau your brother, saying,
De neu nafadꞌe Yakob nae, “We, Ako! Rena malolole! Faꞌ ra ama ma olaꞌ no Esau taꞌo ia:
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.'
‘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 Now therefore, my son, obey my voice according to that which I command you.
De rena malolole, Ako! Tungga tebꞌe-tebꞌeꞌ parenda ngga ia.
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.
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 You shall bring it to your father, that he may eat, so that he may bless you before his death."
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 Jacob said to Rebekah his mother, "Look, Esau my brother is a hairy man, and I am a smooth man.
Boe ma Yakob olaꞌ no ina na nae, “Te Inaꞌ e! Aꞌa Saul ao na mafuluꞌ, te au ao ngga manggamomouꞌ!
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."
Afiꞌ losa amaꞌ nafaroe ao ngga ma, ana nahine au eꞌedik e. Boe ma ana sumba-ndoon au!”
13 His mother said to him, "Let your curse be on me, my son. Only obey my voice, and go get them for me."
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, and got them, and brought them to his mother. His mother prepared some tasty food, just the way his father liked it.
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 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.
Ana o haꞌi Esau bua-baꞌu malole na, de fee Yakob pake.
16 She put the skins of the young goats on his hands, and on the smooth of his neck.
Ma ana mboti Yakob lima na no nggara-bote na, nendiꞌ hiek ka fulu na.
17 She handed the tasty food and the bread which she had prepared to her son Jacob.
Ma ana fee Yakob nanaa maladꞌaꞌ naa ra, no roti fo ana taoꞌ a.
18 He came to his father, and said, "My father?" He said, "Here I am. 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 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."
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 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."
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 Isaac said to Jacob, "Please come near, that I may feel you, my son, whether you are really 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 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."
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 He did not recognize him, because his hands were hairy like those of his brother Esau. So he blessed 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 really my son Esau?" He said, "I am."
natane seluꞌ fai nae, “Ho ia, tebꞌe-tebꞌeꞌ Esau, do?” Yakob nataa nae, “Tebꞌe amaꞌ!”
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.
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 His father Isaac said to him, "Come near now, and kiss me, my son."
Basa ma, ama na olaꞌ nae, “Ana ngge! Uma deka-deka sia ia, fo idꞌu au dei.”
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.
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 God give you of the dew of the sky, of the fatness of the earth, and plenty of grain and new 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 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."
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 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.
Isak fee basa papala-babꞌanggiꞌ ma, Yakob lao hela e. Boe ma, aꞌa na Esau baliꞌ nendi banda fo sombu nalaꞌ a.
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."
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 Isaac his father said to him, "Who are you?" He said, "I am your son, your firstborn, Esau."
Isak rena nala ma, ana titindindi, de natane nae, “Hee! Ho se fai?” Esau nataa nae, “Au, Sau! Ana ulu ma.”
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."
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 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."
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 He said, "Your brother came with deceit, and has taken away your blessing."
Te Isak nae, “Nesen. Odꞌim eꞌedik nala au ena, ma namanaꞌo nendi papala-babꞌanggim ena.”
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?"
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 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?"
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 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.
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 his father answered him, "Look, of the fatness of the earth will be your dwelling, and of the dew of the sky 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 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."
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 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."
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 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.
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 Now therefore, my son, obey my voice. Arise, flee to Laban, my brother, in Haran.
44 Stay with him a few days, until your brother's fury turns away;
Muu leo dodꞌoo sia naa, losa aꞌa ma nda afiꞌ namanasa sa ena.
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?"
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 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?"
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.”
