Genesis 27
1 When Isaac was old, he became almost blind. One day he summoned Esau, his firstborn/older son,
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 said to him, “My son?” Esau replied, “Here I am!”
Hoe re, Hehe te bey Iraho henaneo; naho amoeako ty andro hikenkañako,
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.
aa ehe rambeso o harao’oo: ty kotra’o naho fale’o le akia mb’an-kivok’ añe hitsindroke hena ho ahiko.
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.”
Le anokono mahakama mafiry, amy teakoy, le anjotso ho haneko, hitatàko azo an-troko aolo’ ty hivetrahako.
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,
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 Rebekah said to her son, Jacob, “Listen to me. I heard your father talking 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 ‘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.’
Añendeso tsindroke, le anokono haneñe mafiry hihinanako hitatàko azo añatrefa’ Iehovà aolo’ ty hikenkañako.
8 So now, my son, do what I am telling you.
Inao arè, anako, haoño o volam-pamantohako azoo.
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.
Akia mb’amy lia raikey le andeso vik’ ose roe hañalankañako mahakama mafiry ho an-drae’o, amy tea’ey;
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].”
le ihe ty hanjotso aze aman-drae’o hikama’e, hitata’e aolo’ ty hihomaha’e.
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!
Fa hoe ka t’Iakòbe amy Ribkae rene’e, Oniño te ondaty volovoloeñe t’i Esave rahalahiko; izaho lahilahy pando;
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!”
hera hitsapa ahy t’i raeko le hatao’e te nirabioñeko, le mone fatse ty hanoa’e fa tsy tata.
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!”
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 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.
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 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.
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 She also put the skins of the young goats on his hands and the smooth part of his neck.
le napeta’e an-tsira’e ty holi’ i vik’ osey naho ami’ty malama am-pititia’e eo.
17 Then she handed him some bread and the tasty food that she had prepared.
Tinolo’e am-pità’ Iakòbe ana’e i mahakama mafiriy naho ty mofo hinalanka’e.
18 Jacob took it to his father and said, “My father!” Isaac replied, “I’m here; which of my sons are you?”
Le nizilik’ aman-drae’e ao re nanao ty hoe, O aba, le tinoi’e ty hoe, Intoy iraho; Ia irehe, anako?
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.”
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 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.”
Aa hoe t’Ietsàk’ amy ana’ey, Akore anako, t’ie nahatrea anianik’ avao? Hoe ty natoi’e: Nampitotohe’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’o amako.
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.”
Le hoe t’Ietsàk’ am’Iakòbe, Harineo, hitsapako azo, anako, haharendrehako te toe i Esave anako ke tsie.
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.”
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 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.
Le tsy nifohi’e amy te nivolovoloeñe manahake o fitàn-joke’e Esaveo o taña’eo, aa le tinata’e.
24 But first Isaac asked, “Are you really my son Esau?” Jacob replied, “Yes, I am.”
Hoe re, Toe anako Esave v’i-heo? Le tinoi’e ty hoe: Izaho.
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.
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 Then Isaac said to him, “My son, come here and kiss me.”
Le hoe ty rae’e Ietsàk’ ama’e, Mañarinea ahy anako vaho orofo.
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.
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 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.
Ee te hanoloran’ Añahare azo ty zonon-dikerañe, naho ty havondra’ ty tane toy vaho ampemba naho-divay vao maha-eneñe.
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.”
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 After Isaac finished blessing Jacob, Jacob was just leaving the room where his father was, when his older brother, Esau, returned from 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 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!”
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 His father, Isaac, said to him, “Who are you?” He answered, “I am Esau, your firstborn son!”
Ia v’iheo, hoe t’Ietsàke rae’e ama’e. Tinoi’e ty hoe, Ana’o iraho, i Esave tañoloñoloña’oy.
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).”
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 heard those words of his father, he cried loudly. He was very disappointed. He said to his father, “My father, bless me, too!”
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 But his father said, “Your brother came deceitfully and took your blessing!”
Fa hoe re, Niavy etoa am-pamañahiañe ty zai’o, vaho tinava’e i tata’oy.
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?”
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 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]
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 Esau said to his father, “My father, do you have only one blessing? My father, bless me, too!” Then Esau cried very loudly.
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 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].
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 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.”
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 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!”
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 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.
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 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].
Ie amy zao ry anako, oriho o volakoo, le miongaha, mibioña mb’ amy Labàne rahalahiko e Kharane añe,
44 Stay with him a while, until your older brother is no longer angry.
le molia ama’e ao heike, ampara’ te mitolike ty fitrotrofiahan-joke’o,
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]
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 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!”
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?
