Genesis 27
1 When Isaac was old, he became almost blind. One day he summoned Esau, his firstborn/older son,
In pacl se inge Isaac el matuoh ac mutawauk in sulonginla. El sapla solalma Esau, wen se ma matu natul, ac fahk nu sel, “Wen nutik!” Esau el topuk, “Nga inge.”
2 and said to him, “My son?” Esau replied, “Here I am!”
Isaac el fahk, “Kom liye lah nga matuoh ac apkuran in misa.
3 Isaac said, “Listen to me. I am very old, and I do not know when I will die. So now take your bow and quiver full of arrows and go out into the countryside, and hunt for a wild animal for me.
Us mwe pisr nutum an ac sruokma soko kosro inima an nak.
4 Kill one and prepare the kind of tasty meat that I like. Then bring it to me so that after I eat it, I can give you a blessing before I die.”
Orauk kain in mongo yuyu se ma nga lungsena kang ah, ac use nu yuruk. Nga ac mongo tari, na nga fah akinsewowoyekomla meet liki nga misa.”
5 Rebekah was listening as Isaac said that to his son, Esau. So when Esau left the tent to go to the countryside to hunt for a wild animal in order to kill it and bring it back,
Ke pacl se Isaac el kaskas nu sel Esau inge, Rebecca el lohng na. Ouinge ke Esau el illa som in sruh kosro,
6 Rebekah said to her son, Jacob, “Listen to me. I heard your father talking to your brother, Esau, saying,
Rebecca el fahk nu sel Jacob, “Nga lohng lah ingena papa tomom fahk nu sel Esau ange:
7 ‘Go and kill some wild animal and bring it here, and prepare the meat in a tasty way, so that I may eat it, and then before I die I can give you my blessing while Yahweh is listening.’
‘Use soko kosro inima an ac akmolyela nak. Tukun nga ac mongo tari, na nga ac akinsewowoye kom ye mutun LEUM GOD meet liki nga misa.’”
8 So now, my son, do what I am telling you.
Rebecca el tafwela ac fahk, “Wen nutik, porongo akwoye ac oru ma nga fahk uh.
9 Go out to the flock and [kill] two nice young goats and bring [the meat] to me. Then I will prepare some tasty food for your father, the way he likes it.
Fahla nu ke un kosro uh, ac srela lukwa nani fusr na fact an. Use ngan tuh akmolyela ac orala kain mongo se ma papa tomom el arulana lungse yohk ah.
10 Then you can take it to your father, in order that he can eat it, and then, before he dies, he will give his blessing to you, [and not to your older brother].”
Kom ku in usla nu yorol elan kang, elan mau akinsewowoyekomla meet liki el misa.”
11 But Jacob said to his mother Rebekah, “But my brother Esau’s skin has hair all over it, and my skin is not like that! My skin is smooth!
Tusruktu Jacob el fahk nu sin nina kial, “Kom etu na lah manol Esau unacna, a monuk fwel.
12 What will happen if my father touches me? He will realize that I am tricking him, and as a result (I will be cursed/he will say that God will do bad things to) me, not a blessing!”
Papa el ac tuh kahl monuk ac konauk lah nga kiapwel. Ac fin ange, ac tia akinsewowoyeyuk nga, a el ac selngaiyuwi.”
13 His mother replied, “If that happens, let the curse be on me. You do what I am telling you. Go and get the goats for me!”
Nina kial ah fahk, “Wen nutik, lela kutena selnga nu sum an in oan fuk. Oru na ma nga fahk uh. Fahla use nani an.”
14 So Jacob went and killed two goats and brought them to his mother. Then [with the meat] his mother prepared some tasty food, just the way his father liked.
Ouinge el som sruokya nani uh, ac use nu yurin nina kial, ac el orala kain mongo se ma papa sac arulana lungse ah.
15 Then Rebekah took her older son Esau’s clothes that were with her in the tent, and she put them on her younger son Jacob.
Na Rebecca el srukak nuknuk se ma wo emeet lal Esau su oan yorol in lohm uh, ac sang nokmulang Jacob.
16 She also put the skins of the young goats on his hands and the smooth part of his neck.
El sang kulun nani uh nu fin paol Jacob, oayapa nu fin acn ma tia unacna ke kawal.
17 Then she handed him some bread and the tasty food that she had prepared.
Na el sang mwe mongo yuyu sac, ac bread ma el munanla nu sel.
18 Jacob took it to his father and said, “My father!” Isaac replied, “I’m here; which of my sons are you?”
Na Jacob el som nu yurin papa tumal ah, ac fahk, “Papa!” El topuk, “Nga inge. Su kac sumtal ingan?”
19 Jacob said to his father, “I am Esau, your firstborn son. I did what you told me to do. Sit up and eat some of the meat so that you can then bless me.”
Jacob el fahk, “Nga Esau, wen matu nutum. Ma kom sap ngan orala nom ah pa inge. Tukakek mongoi, kom in tari akinsewowoyeyula.”
20 But Isaac asked his son, “My son, how is it that you were able to find and kill an animal so quickly?” Jacob replied, “Because Yahweh, whom you worship, enabled me to be successful.”
Isaac el fahk nu sin wen natul, “Ku kom oru fuka tuh kom arulana sa konauk?” Jacob el fahk, LEUM GOD lom El kasreyu konauk.”
21 Isaac said to Jacob, “Come near to me, my son, so that I can touch you and determine whether you are really my son Esau.”
Isaac el fahk nu sel Jacob, “Kaluku ngan kahlkomi. Pwayena lah kom pa Esau?”
22 So Jacob went close to him. Isaac. Isaac touched him and said, “Your voice sounds like Jacob, but your hands feel hairy, like the hands of your older brother, Esau.”
Jacob el kalukyang nu yurin papa tumal ah, na Isaac el kahlilya ac fahk, “Pusrem oana pusracl Jacob, a poum paol Esau.”
23 Isaac did not recognize Jacob, [because he was blind] and because Jacob’s hands were now hairy, like those of his older brother, Esau. So Isaac prepared to bless Jacob.
El tiana akilenul Jacob, mweyen paol oana paol Esau. El akola elan akinsewowoyal,
24 But first Isaac asked, “Are you really my son Esau?” Jacob replied, “Yes, I am.”
na el sifilpa siyuk, “Ku pwayena kom pa Esau?” Ac el topuk, “Aok, pwaye.”
25 Isaac said, “My son, bring me some of the meat that you have cooked, so that I may eat it and then give you my blessing.” So Jacob brought him some, and he ate it. Jacob also brought him some wine, and he drank it.
Isaac el fahk, “Kolma mongo an nu yuruk ngan kang. Nga ac mongo tari, na nga fah akinsewowoyekomla.” Jacob el kolang nu yorol, ac el oayapa sang wain nimal.
26 Then Isaac said to him, “My son, come here and kiss me.”
Na papa tumal ah fahk nu sel, “Kaluku, wen nutik, ac ngokya mutuk.”
27 So Jacob came close to him, and his father kissed him on the cheek. Isaac smelled the clothes Jacob was wearing. They smelled like Esau’s clothes. So he said, “Truly, the smell of my son is like the smell of a field that Yahweh has blessed.
Ac ke el kalukyang in ngok mutal, Isaac el ngokak nuknuk lal, ouinge el akinsewowoyalla. Ac el fahk, “Foulin wen nutik uh loslos oana foulin ima ma LEUM GOD El akinsewowoye.
28 I ask that God will send down to you dew from heaven [to water your fields], and cause you to have abundant crops, good harvests of grain, and grapes for wine.
God Elan asot nu sum aunfong inkusrao me, ac akkasrupye fohkon acn in ima lom! Ac lela Elan akpusye wheat ac wain lom!
29 I ask that people of many nations will serve you and bow down to you. I ask that you will rule over your brothers, and that your mother’s descendants will also bow down to you. I ask that God will curse/punish those who (curse you/ask God to do bad things to you), and bless those who bless you.”
Mutunfacl puspis in kulansap nu sum, ac mwet uh in faksufi ye motom. Lela kom in leum fin sou lom nukewa, ac fwilin tulik nutin nina kiom in akfulatye kom. Lela elos su selngawi kom in selngawiyuk, ac elos su akinsewowoye kom in akinsewowoyeyuk.”
30 After Isaac finished blessing Jacob, Jacob was just leaving the room where his father was, when his older brother, Esau, returned from hunting.
Isaac el akinsewowoyela Jacob tari, na Jacob el tuyak som. Tia paht na Esau, tamulel lal, el foloko liki sruh kosro lal.
31 Esau cooked some tasty meat and brought it to his father. He said to his father, “My father, please sit up and eat some of the meat that I have cooked, so that you can then give me your blessing!”
El oayapa akmolyela mwe mongo na yuyu ac usla nu yurin papa tumal. Ac el fahk, “Papa, tukakek kang kutu ikwen kosro nga us tuku nom inge, kom in tari akinsewowoyeyula.”
32 His father, Isaac, said to him, “Who are you?” He answered, “I am Esau, your firstborn son!”
Ac Isaac el siyuk, “Ku su kom an?” Ac Esau el fahk, “Nga Esau, wounse mukul nutum.”
33 Then Isaac, realizing that it was not Esau who had come earlier, trembled very violently. He said, “Then who is it that brought me some meat from an animal that he had hunted and killed, and I ate it all? He was here just before you came. I blessed him, and I cannot (take back that blessing/declare that those things will not happen to him).”
Manol Isaac nufon rarrarak, ac el siyuk, “Fin angan, ac su sruhk uniya kosro soko use nak ah? Nga mongo tufahna tari na pa kom utyak. Nga sang nufon mwe insewowo luk nu sel, ac inge ac ma na lal nwe tok.”
34 When Esau heard those words of his father, he cried loudly. He was very disappointed. He said to his father, “My father, bless me, too!”
Ke Esau el lohng ma inge, el liksreni tung ac wowoyak, ac fahk, “Papa, akinsewowoyeyu pac!”
35 But his father said, “Your brother came deceitfully and took your blessing!”
Isaac el fahk, “Tamulel lom el tuku ac kiapweyula. El eisla tari mwe insewowo lom.”
36 Esau said, “It is right [RHQ] that his name is Jacob, which means ‘cheat,’ because he deceived me two times. The first time he took my rights from being his firstborn son, and this time he took my blessing!” Then he asked, “Do you not have any blessing left for me?”
Esau el fahk, “Pacl luola el aklalfonyeyu. Fal in pangpang inel Jacob. El eisla wal lun wounse luk, ac inge el eisla pac mwe insewowo luk. Ya wangin na pwaye mwe insewowo lula kom filiya luk?”
37 Isaac answered and said to Esau, “I have declared that your younger brother will rule over you, and declared that all his relatives will serve him. And I have said that God will give him plenty of grain and grapes for wine. So, my son, (what can I do for you?/There is nothing more that I can do for you!)” [RHQ]
Isaac el topuk, “Nga orala tari elan leum fom, ac tuh mwet wial nukewa fah mwet kulansap lal. Nga sang nu sel wheat ac wain. Inge, wen nutik, wangin ma nga ku in oru nu sum!”
38 Esau said to his father, “My father, do you have only one blessing? My father, bless me, too!” Then Esau cried very loudly.
Esau el sifil pacna kwafe nu sin papa tumal ah, ac fahk, “Ya mwe insewowo sefanna lom, papa? Akinsewowoyeyu pac!” Na el sifilpa tung.
39 His father Isaac answered and said to him, “The place where you will live will be far from the fertile soil and from the dew that God sends from heaven [to water the fields].
Na Isaac el fahk nu sel, “Wangin aunfong nu sum inkusrao me, Wangin acn wo ke ima uh lom.
40 You will [rob and] kill people [MTY] in order to [get what you need to] live, and you will be as though you are your brother’s slave. But when you decide to rebel against him, you will (free yourself from/no longer be under) his control.”
Cutlass nutum pa ac sot enenu lom, Ac kom fah kulansupu tamulel lom. Tusruktu kom fin tuyak lainul, Kom ac fah pisrla liki ye nununku lal.”
41 So, because his father had given a blessing to Jacob, and not to him, Esau hated his younger brother. Esau thought to himself, “After my father dies and we finish mourning for him, I will kill Jacob!”
Esau el arulana srungalla Jacob, mweyen papa tumal ah tuh sang mwe insewowo ah nu sel. Ac el nunku sel sifacna, “Akuranna sun pacl in eoksra ke misa lal papa. Fin safla, na nga ac unilya Jacob.”
42 But Rebekah found out what her older son, Esau, was thinking. So she summoned her younger son, Jacob, and said to him, “Listen to me. Your older brother, Esau, is [comforting himself by] planning to kill you, to get revenge because of your deceiving your father.
Tusruktu ke Rebecca el lohng ke akoo lal Esau ah, el sapla solalma Jacob ac fahk nu sel, “Esau tamulel lom, el akoo in foloksak nu sum ac unikomi.
43 So now, my son, listen carefully to what I am telling you. Escape quickly and go and stay with my brother Laban, in Haran [town].
Wen nutik, inge kom oru ma nga fahk uh. Fahla ingena nwe yorol Laban tamulel luk in acn Haran,
44 Stay with him a while, until your older brother is no longer angry.
ac muta yorol nwe ke na kasrkusrak lun tamulel lom ohula
45 When he forgets what you did to him, I will send a message to you, to tell you to return from there. If Esau kills you, [others will kill him, and] then both my sons would die at the same time!” [RHQ]
ac el mulkunla ma kom oru nu sel inge. Tok nga ac fah supwaot sie mwet in folokinkomme. Mwe mea wen luo nutik in tukenina wanginla ke len sefanna?”
46 Rebekah also said to Isaac, “These [foreign] women whom Esau has married, who are descendants of Heth, are making my life miserable. I would prefer to die than to see Jacob marry a woman from the descendants of Heth in this area!”
Rebecca el fahk nu sel Isaac, “Nga keokla sin mutan Hit kial Esau inge. Jacob el fin payukyak pac sin sie mutan Hit, ac mansis pacna ngan tari misa.”
