< Genesis 27 >

1 And it cometh to pass that Isaac [is] aged, and his eyes are too dim for seeing, and he calleth Esau his elder son, and saith unto him, 'My son;' and he saith unto him, 'Here [am] I.'
Tedae Isaak te a patong vaengah a mik hmang tih tueng pa pawh. Te vaengah a capa a ham Esau te a khue tih, “Ka capa,” a ti nah hatah a taengah, “Kai ni he,” a ti nah.
2 And he saith, 'Lo, I pray thee, I have become aged, I have not known the day of my death;
Te phoeiah, “Ka patong coeng tih ka dueknah khohnin khaw ka ming moenih he.
3 and now, take up, I pray thee, thy instruments, thy quiver, and thy bow, and go out to the field, and hunt for me provision,
Te dongah na hnopai, na liva neh na lii te lo laeh. Te phoeiah pong ah cet lamtah kai ham lampu sakah han yuep laeh.
4 and make for me tasteful things, [such] as I have loved, and bring in to me, and I do eat, so that my soul doth bless thee before I die.'
Te phoeiah ka ngaih vanbangla kai ham antui saii lamtah ka taengla han khuen. Ka ca saeh lamtah ka hinglu loh ka duek hlan ah nang te yoethen kan pae eh?,” a ti nah.
5 And Rebekah is hearkening while Isaac is speaking unto Esau his son; and Esau goeth to the field to hunt provision — to bring in;
Isaak loh a capa Esau taengah a thui vaengah Rebekah loh a yaak. Te dongah Esau tah pong ah maeh loh ham saa yuep la cet.
6 and Rebekah hath spoken unto Jacob her son, saying, 'Lo, I have heard thy father speaking unto Esau thy brother, saying,
Te vaengah Rebekah loh a capa Jakob te a uen tih, “Na pa loh na maya Esau te a voek coeng ne.
7 Bring for me provision, and make for me tasteful things, and I do eat, and bless thee before Jehovah before my death.
'Sakah te kai taengah han khuen lamtah kai ham antui saii laeh. Te phoeiah ka ca saeh lamtah ka duek hlan ah BOEIPA hmuh ah nang yoethen kan pae eh,’ a ti nah te ka yaak coeng he.
8 'And now, my son, hearken to my voice, to that which I am commanding thee:
Te dongah ka ca, kai loh nang kan uen bangla ka ol he ngai laeh.
9 Go, I pray thee, unto the flock, and take for me from thence two good kids of the goats, and I make them tasteful things for thy father, [such] as he hath loved;
Boiva taengla cet lamtah maae ca a then panit te kamah taengla han khuen laeh. Te phoeiah na pa ham a ngaih bangla antui ka saii eh.
10 and thou hast taken in to thy father, and he hath eaten, so that his soul doth bless thee before his death.
Te phoeiah na pa taengla khuen lamtah ca saeh. Te nen te a duek hlan ah nang te yoethen m'paesaeh,” a ti nah.
11 And Jacob saith unto Rebekah his mother, 'Lo, Esau my brother [is] a hairy man, and I a smooth man,
Tedae Jakob loh a manu Rebekah taengah, “Ka maya Esau tah mulsui hlang tih kai tah sahnal hlang ni he.
12 it may be my father doth feel me, and I have been in his eyes as a deceiver, and have brought upon me disesteem, and not a blessing;'
A pa loh kai te m'phatuem khaming, a mik ah laithae la ka om vetih kai soah rhunkhuennah thoeng koinih yoethennah moenih,” a ti nah.
13 and his mother saith to him, 'On me thy disesteem, my son; only hearken to my voice, and go, take for me.'
Tedae a manu loh anih taengah, “Ka capa nang sokah rhunkhuennah te kai soah tla saeh. Kai ol he duem ngai laeh. Te dongah cet lamtah kamah taengla hang khuen,” a ti nah.
14 And he goeth, and taketh, and bringeth to his mother, and his mother maketh tasteful things, [such] as his father hath loved;
Te dongah cet tih a loh phoeiah a manu taengla a khuen. Te vaengah a manu loh a napa kah a ngaih bangla antui a saii pah.
15 and Rebekah taketh the desirable garments of Esau her elder son, which [are] with her in the house, and doth put on Jacob her younger son;
Te phoeiah Rebekah loh a capa a ham Esau kah himbai then te, im ah a loh tih a ca noe Jakob te a bai sak.
16 and the skins of the kids of the goats she hath put on his hands, and on the smooth of his neck,
Te phoeiah maae ca kah a vin te a kut neh a rhawn kah a sahnal soah a dah pah.
17 and she giveth the tasteful things, and the bread which she hath made, into the hand of Jacob her son.
Te phoeiah antui neh buh a saii te a capa Jakob kut ah a doe.
18 And he cometh in unto his father, and saith, 'My father;' and he saith, 'Here [am] I; who [art] thou, my son?'
Te phoeiah a napa taengla cet tih, “A pa,” a ti nah hatah, “Kai ni he, ka ca nang he unim?” a ti nah.
19 And Jacob saith unto his father, 'I [am] Esau thy first-born; I have done as thou hast spoken unto me; rise, I pray thee, sit, and eat of my provision, so that thy soul doth bless me.'
Tedae Jakob loh a napa taengah, “Kai he na caming Esau ni. Kai taengah nan thui bangla ka saii coeng. Thoo lamtah, ngol laeh. Ka sakah he ca lamtah na hinglu loh kai he yoethen paek saeh,” a ti nah.
20 And Isaac saith unto his son, 'What [is] this thou hast hasted to find, my son?' and he saith, 'That which Jehovah thy God hath caused to come before me.'
Tedae Isaak loh a capa te, “Ka ca metlam lae hekah he koe na hmuh lah,” a ti nah. Te dongah, “Na Pathen BOEIPA loh kai ham a thoeng sak dongah ni,” a ti nah.
21 And Isaac saith unto Jacob, 'Come nigh, I pray thee, and I feel thee, my son, whether thou [art] he, my son Esau, or not.'
Te dongah Isaak loh Jakob te, “Bet ha thoeih lamtah ka ca nang te, ka ca Esau taktak neh taktak pawt a khaw kan yam lah eh,” a ti nah.
22 And Jacob cometh nigh unto Isaac his father, and he feeleth him, and saith, 'The voice [is] the voice of Jacob, and the hands hands of Esau.'
Te dongah Jakob loh a napa Isaak taengla thoeih tih a phatuem vaengah, “Ol tah Jakob ol dae a kut tah Esau kut,” a ti nah.
23 And he hath not discerned him, for his hands have been hairy, as the hands of Esau his brother, and he blesseth him,
Tedae a kut te a maya Esau kut phek, mulsui la a om dongah anih te hmat pawt tih yoethen a paek.
24 and saith, 'Thou art he — my son Esau?' and he saith, 'I [am].'
Te vaengah, “Nang he ka ca Esau taktak a?” a ti nah hatah, “Kai ni ue,” a ti nah.
25 And he saith, 'Bring nigh to me, and I do eat of my son's provision, so that my soul doth bless thee;' and he bringeth nigh to him, and he eateth; and he bringeth to him wine, and he drinketh.
Te dongah, “Kai taengla han thoeih lamtah ka ca kah sakah te ka ca eh. Ka hinglu loh nang yoethen m'pae saeh,” a ti nah. Te phoeiah a taengla a thoeih pah. Te vaengah a caak phoeiah misurtui khaw a khuen pah tih a ok.
26 And Isaac his father saith to him, 'Come nigh, I pray thee, and kiss me, my son;'
Te phoeiah a napa Isaak loh anih te, “Ka ca bet ha thoeih lamtah kai m'mok,” a ti nah.
27 and he cometh nigh, and kisseth him, and he smelleth the fragrance of his garments, and blesseth him, and saith, 'See, the fragrance of my son [is] as the fragrance of a field which Jehovah hath blessed;
Te dongah thoeih tih a mok. Te vaengah a himbai bo te a him pah tih yoethen a paek. Te phoeiah, “So lah, ka capa bo he, BOEIPA loh yoethen a paek khohmuen bo bangla om.
28 and God doth give to thee of the dew of heaven, and of the fatness of the earth, and abundance of corn and wine;
Te dongah Pathen loh nang taengah vaan lamkah buemtui khaw, diklai khuehtawn khaw, cangpai cungkuem neh misur thai khaw m'pae saeh.
29 peoples serve thee, and nations bow themselves to thee, be thou mighty over thy brethren, and the sons of thy mother bow themselves to thee; those who curse thee [are] cursed, and those who bless thee [are] blessed.'
Pilnam rhoek loh nang taengah thotat uh saeh lamtah, namtu loh nang taengah bakuep khaw bakuep saeh. Na pacaboeina rhoek taengah boei la om lamtah na manu ca rhoek loh nang taengah bakop uh saeh. Nang thae aka phoei thil tah thaephoei thil saeh. Nang yoethen aka pae te yoethen pae saeh,” a ti nah.
30 And it cometh to pass, as Isaac hath finished blessing Jacob, and Jacob is only just going out from the presence of Isaac his father, that Esau his brother hath come in from his hunting;
Tedae Isaak loh Jakob yoethen a paek te a khah van neh Jakob tah a napa Isaak mikhmuh lamloh nong tih vawl cet. Te phoeiah a maya Esau te a sakah nah lamkah tloep pai.
31 and he also maketh tasteful things, and bringeth to his father, and saith to his father, 'Let my father arise, and eat of his son's provision, so that thy soul doth bless me.'
Anih long khaw antui a saii van tih a napa taengla a khuen. Te phoeiah a napa te, “A pa thoo lamtah na capa kah sakah he ca laeh. Na hinglu loh kai yoethen m'pae saeh,” a ti nah.
32 And Isaac his father saith to him, 'Who [art] thou?' and he saith, 'I [am] thy son, thy first-born, Esau;'
Tedae anih te a napa Isaak loh, “Nang ulae?” a ti nah hatah, “Kai, na capa na caming Esau ni,” a ti nah.
33 and Isaac trembleth a very great trembling, and saith, 'Who, now, [is] he who hath provided provision, and bringeth in to me, and I eat of all before thou comest in, and I bless him? — yea, blessed is he.'
Te dongah Isaak tah thuennah neh a nah la mat lakueng tih, “Saa a yuep phoeiah kai taengla aka khuen te ulae? Na lo hlan ah boeih ka caak tih anih te yoethen ka paek dongah a yoethen ngawn coeng,” a ti nah.
34 When Esau heareth the words of his father, then he crieth a very great and bitter cry, and saith to his father, 'Bless me, me also, O my father;'
Esau loh a napa kah olka te a yaak tih a len la pangngawlnah neh hluthlut mat pang. A napa taengah, “A pa, kai khaw yoethen m'pae,” a ti nah.
35 and he saith, 'Thy brother hath come with subtilty, and taketh thy blessing.'
Tedae, “Na mana te thailatnah neh halo tih nang kah yoethennah a loh coeng,” a ti nah.
36 And he saith, 'Is it because [one] called his name Jacob that he doth take me by the heel these two times? my birthright he hath taken; and lo, now, he hath taken my blessing;' he saith also, 'Hast thou not kept back a blessing for me?'
Te dongah Esau loh, “A ming khaw Jakob la a khue pai. Te dongah ni a pabae la kai n'rhim tih kai kah caminghamsum te a loh. Te phoeiah kai kah yoethennah a loh coeng he,” a ti. Te phoeiah, “Kai ham tah yoethennah na paih pawt nim?,” a ti nah.
37 And Isaac answereth and saith to Esau, 'Lo, a mighty one have I set him over thee, and all his brethren have I given to him for servants, and [with] corn and wine have I sustained him; and for thee now, what shall I do, my son?'
Tedae Isaak loh Esau te a doo tih, “Anih te nang soah boei la ka khueh coeng ne. Te dongah a pacaboeina boeih te a taengah sal la ka paek. Te phoeiah cangpai neh misur thai khaw anih ka pang sak coeng. Te dongah ka ca nang ham balae ka saii bal eh?,” a ti nah.
38 And Esau saith unto his father, 'One blessing hast thou my father? bless me, me also, O my father;' and Esau lifteth up his voice, and weepeth.
Tedae Esau loh a napa taengah, “a pa na taengkah yoethennah te pakhat khaw ta? Kai khaw yoethen m'pae van saw a pa,” a ti nah. Te vaengah Esau loh a ol te a huel tih rhap.
39 And Isaac his father answereth and saith unto him, 'Lo, of the fatness of the earth is thy dwelling, and of the dew of the heavens from above;
Te dongah a napa Isaak loh anih te a doo tih, “Diklai kah khuehtawn neh vaan dong sosang lamkah buemtui loh namah tolrhum ah om bitni ne.
40 and by thy sword dost thou live, and thy brother dost thou serve; and it hath come to pass when thou rulest, that thou hast broken his yoke from off thy neck.'
Na cunghang neh na hing vetih na mana taengah na thotat ni. Tedae na van van neh na rhawn dongkah a hnamkun te na bawt bitni,” a ti nah.
41 And Esau hateth Jacob, because of the blessing with which his father blessed him, and Esau saith in his heart, 'The days of mourning [for] my father draw near, and I slay Jacob my brother.'
Tedae a napa kah yoethennah te anih te yoethen a paek dongah Esau loh Jakob taengah a konaeh. Te dongah Esau loh a lungbuei khuiah,” A pa kah nguekcoinah tue yoei, ka mana Jakob te ka ngawn ni,” a ti.
42 And the words of Esau her elder son are declared to Rebekah, and she sendeth and calleth for Jacob her younger son, and saith unto him, 'Lo, Esau thy brother is comforting himself in regard to thee — to slay thee;
Tedae a capa a ham Esau kah olka te Rebekah taengah a puen pah. Te dongah a capa a noe Jakob te a tah tih a khue sak. Te phoeiah amah taengah, “Na maya Esau loh nang ngawn daengah ni nang ham dam a ti eh ne.
43 and now, my son, hearken to my voice, and rise, flee for thyself unto Laban my brother, to Haran,
Te dongah ka ca, kai ol he ngai laeh. Thoo lamtah Haran ah ka nganpa Laban taengla namah yong laeh.
44 and thou hast dwelt with him some days, till thy brother's fury turn back,
Na maya kah kosi a mael hil hnin at khaw anih taengla khosa mai.
45 till thy brother's anger turn back from thee, and he hath forgotten that which thou hast done to him, and I have sent and taken thee from thence; why am I bereaved even of you both the same day?'
Na maya loh nang taengkah thintoek te mael tih anih taengah na saii te a hnilh phoeiah kan tah vetih te lamkah nang kan loh bitni. Balae tih nangmih rhoi khaw hnin at ah kan hlong eh?” a ti nah.
46 And Rebekah saith unto Isaac, 'I have been disgusted with my life because of the presence of the daughters of Heth; if Jacob take a wife of the daughters of Heth, like these — from the daughters of the land — why do I live?'
Te dongah Rebekah loh Isaak taengah, “Kheth nu mikhmuh ah ka hingnah loh a mueipuel. Amih Kheth nu bang tolrhum kah huta te Jakob loh a yuu la lo koinih kai kah hingnah he metlam a om eh?,” a ti nah.
