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.'
Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi heʻene motuʻa ʻa ʻAisake, pea kuo kui hono mata, pea naʻe ʻikai te ne faʻa sio, naʻa ne ui ki hono ʻuluaki foha ko ʻIsoa, ʻo ne pehē kiate ia, Ko hoku foha: pea ne pehē kiate ia, Vakai, ko au eni.
2 And he saith, 'Lo, I pray thee, I have become aged, I have not known the day of my death;
Pea pehē ʻe ia, “Vakai mai, kuo u motuʻa, pea ʻoku ʻikai te u ʻilo ʻae ʻaho ʻo ʻeku mate.
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,
Pea ko eni, ʻoku ou kole kiate koe, ke ke toʻo hoʻo nāunau, ʻa hoʻo tangakaho, mo hoʻo kaufana, pea ke ʻalu ki he vao mo ke kumi maʻaku ha manu.
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.'
Pea ke ngaohi maʻaku ha meʻakai ifo lelei, ʻo hangē ko ʻeku manako, pea ke ʻomi ia kiate au ke u kai; koeʻuhi ke tāpuaki koe ʻe hoku laumālie, ʻi he teʻeki ai teu mate.”
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;
Pea naʻe fanongo ʻa Lepeka ki he lea ʻa ʻAisake ki hono foha ko ʻIsoa. Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻa ʻIsoa ki he vao ke kumi ha manu mo ʻomi ia.
6 and Rebekah hath spoken unto Jacob her son, saying, 'Lo, I have heard thy father speaking unto Esau thy brother, saying,
Pea lea ʻa Lepeka ki heʻene tama ko Sēkope, ʻo pehē, “Vakai mai, naʻaku fanongo naʻe lea hoʻo tamai ki ho tokoua ko ʻIsoa, ʻo pehē,
7 Bring for me provision, and make for me tasteful things, and I do eat, and bless thee before Jehovah before my death.
‘Omi maʻaku ha manu, mo ngaohi maʻaku ʻae meʻakai lelei, koeʻuhi ke u kai ia, mo tāpuaki koe ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, ʻi he teʻeki ai teu mate.’
8 'And now, my son, hearken to my voice, to that which I am commanding thee:
Pea ko eni, ʻeku tama, Ke ke talangofua ki hoku leʻo, ʻo hangē ko ia te u fekau kiate koe.
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;
ʻAlu leva ki he fanga kosi, mo ke ʻomi mei ai ʻae ongo ʻuhikiʻi kosi lelei ʻe ua: pea te u ngaohi ʻaki ia ki hoʻo tamai, ʻae meʻakai lelei, ʻo hangē ko ʻene manako.
10 and thou hast taken in to thy father, and he hath eaten, so that his soul doth bless thee before his death.
Pea te ke ʻave ia ki hoʻo tamai, koeʻuhi ke ne kai, pea koeʻuhi ke ne tāpuaki koe ʻi he teʻeki ai te ne pekia.”
11 And Jacob saith unto Rebekah his mother, 'Lo, Esau my brother [is] a hairy man, and I a smooth man,
Pea naʻe pehēange ʻe Sēkope ki heʻene faʻē ko Lepeka, “Vakai mai, ko e tangata fulufulu ʻa ʻIsoa ko hoku tokoua, pea ko e tangata molemole au.
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;'
E ala nai ʻe heʻeku tamai kiate au, pea te u hā atu kiate ia ko e kākā; pea te u ʻomi kiate au ha malaʻia, kae ʻikai ha tāpuaki.”
13 and his mother saith to him, 'On me thy disesteem, my son; only hearken to my voice, and go, take for me.'
Pea pehēange ʻe heʻene faʻē kiate ia, “Ko ʻeku tama, ke ʻiate au pe ho malaʻia, ka ke tui pe ki hoku leʻo pea ke ʻalu ʻo ʻomi ia kiate au.”
14 And he goeth, and taketh, and bringeth to his mother, and his mother maketh tasteful things, [such] as his father hath loved;
Pea naʻe ʻalu ia ō fetuku mo ʻomi ia ki heʻene faʻē; pea ngaohi ai ʻe heʻene faʻē ʻae meʻakai lelei, ʻo hangē ko e manako ʻa ʻene tamai.
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;
Pea toʻo ʻe Lepeka ʻae ngaahi kofu lelei ʻo ʻene ʻuluaki tama ko ʻIsoa, ʻaia naʻe ʻiate ia ʻi he fale, pea ne ai ia ki heʻene tama ki mui ko Sēkope.
16 and the skins of the kids of the goats she hath put on his hands, and on the smooth of his neck,
Pea ne ai ʻae kiliʻi kosi ki hono nima mo e [potu ]molemole ʻo hono kia.
17 and she giveth the tasteful things, and the bread which she hath made, into the hand of Jacob her son.
Pea ne ʻatu ʻae meʻakai lelei, mo e mā kuo ne ngaohi, ki he nima ʻo ʻene tama ko Sēkope.
18 And he cometh in unto his father, and saith, 'My father;' and he saith, 'Here [am] I; who [art] thou, my son?'
Pea naʻe ʻalu ia ki heʻene tamai, ʻo ne pehē, “Ko ʻeku tamai;” pea pehē ʻe ia, “Ko au eni; ka ko hai koe hoku foha?”
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.'
Pea pehē ʻe Sēkope ki heʻene tamai, “Ko au ʻIsoa, ko ho ʻuluaki; kuo u fai ʻo hangē ko hoʻo fekau kiate au; pea ʻoku ou kole kiate koe, ke ke tuʻu hake, pea ke nofo ʻo kai mei heʻeku manu, koeʻuhi ke ke tāpuaki au.”
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.'
Pea pehēange ʻe ʻAisake ki hono foha, “Hoku foha naʻe fēfeeʻi hao maʻu vave pehē mai ia?” Pea ne pehē kiate ia, “Koeʻuhi naʻe ʻomi ia kiate au ʻe Sihova ko ho ʻOtua.”
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.'
Pea pehē ʻe ʻAisake kia Sēkope, “Ko hoku foha ʻoku ou kole ke ke ʻunuʻunu mai, koeʻuhi ke u ala kiate koe ke u ʻilo pe ko hoku foha ko ʻIsoa moʻoni koe, pe ʻikai.”
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.'
Pea ʻunuʻunu atu ʻa Sēkope ki heʻene tamai ko ʻAisake; pea ne fāfā ia ʻo ne pehē, ‘Ko e leʻo, ko e leʻo ʻo Sēkope, ka ko e nima ko e nima ʻo ʻIsoa.”
23 And he hath not discerned him, for his hands have been hairy, as the hands of Esau his brother, and he blesseth him,
Pea naʻe ʻikai te ne ʻilo ia, koeʻuhi naʻe fulufulu hono nima, ʻo hangē ko e nima ʻo hono taʻokete, ko ʻIsoa: pea naʻa ne tāpuaki ia;
24 and saith, 'Thou art he — my son Esau?' and he saith, 'I [am].'
Pea pehē ʻe ia, “Ko hoku foha ko ʻIsoa moʻoni koe?” Pea pehēange ʻe ia, “Ko au ia.”
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.
Pea pehē ʻe ia, “Omi ke ofi ia kiate au, pea te u kai ʻae kanoʻi manu ʻa hoku foha, koeʻuhi ke tāpuaki koe ʻe hoku laumālie.” Pea ne ʻomi ia ʻo ofi kiate ia, pea ne kai ai: pea ne ʻomi kiate ia ʻae uaine, pea ne inu ai.
26 And Isaac his father saith to him, 'Come nigh, I pray thee, and kiss me, my son;'
Pea pehē ʻe heʻene tamai ko ʻAisake kiate ia; “Ko hoku foha ke ke ʻunuʻunu mai, ʻo uma kiate au.”
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;
Pea ʻunuʻunu atu ia, pea uma kiate ia; pea ne nanamu ki he nanamu ʻo hono ngaahi kofu, ʻo ne tāpuaki ia, ʻo pehē, “Vakai, ko e nanamu ʻo hoku foha, ʻoku tatau mo e nanamu ʻoe ngoue kuo tāpuakiʻi ʻe Sihova:
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;
Ko ia ke foaki kiate koe ʻe he ʻOtua ʻae hahau mei langi, mo e mahu ʻoe kelekele, pea mo e koane, mo e uaine, ʻo lahi:
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.'
Ke tauhi koe ʻe he ngaahi kakai, pea ke punou ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga kiate koe; ke ke ʻeiki koe ki ho kāinga, pea ke punou ʻae ngaahi tama ʻa hoʻo faʻē kiate koe; ke malaʻia ia te ne kapeʻi koe, pea ke monūʻia ia ʻoku ne tāpuakiʻi koe.”
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;
Pea pehē, kuo hili ʻae tāpuaki ʻe ʻAisake ʻa Sēkope, pea naʻe teʻeki ke meimei ʻalu ia mei he ʻao ʻo ʻene tamai ko ʻAisake, mo ʻene haʻu ʻa hono taʻokete ko ʻIsoa, mei heʻene tuli manu.
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.'
Pea kuo ngaohi ʻe ia foki ʻae meʻakai ifo lelei, pea ne ʻomi ia ki heʻene tamai, pea pehē ʻe ia ki heʻene tamai, “Ke tuʻu hake ʻeku tamai, mo kai ʻae kanoʻi manu ʻa hono foha, pea ke tāpuaki au ʻe ho laumālie.”
32 And Isaac his father saith to him, 'Who [art] thou?' and he saith, 'I [am] thy son, thy first-born, Esau;'
Pea pehēange ʻe heʻene tamai ko ʻAisake kiate ia, “Ko hai koe?” Pea talaange ʻe ia, “Ko au, ko ho foha, ko ho ʻuluaki ko ʻIsoa.”
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.'
Pea tetetete lahi ʻaupito ʻa ʻAisake, ʻo ne pehē, “Ko hai? Kofaʻā ia naʻa ne maʻu ʻae kanoʻi manu, ʻo ʻomi kiate au, pea naʻaku kai ʻi he meʻa kotoa pē, pea naʻaku tāpuaki ia ʻi he teʻeki ai te ke haʻu koe? ʻIo pea ko e moʻoni ʻe monūʻia ia.”
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;'
Pea kuo fanongo ʻa ʻIsoa ki he ngaahi lea ʻa ʻene tamai, pea tangi ia ʻi he leʻo lahi mo fakamamahi, ʻo ne pehē ki heʻene tamai, “Ke ke tāpuaki au, ʻio, ko au foki, ʻa ʻeku Tamai.”
35 and he saith, 'Thy brother hath come with subtilty, and taketh thy blessing.'
Pea pehēange ʻe ia, “Naʻe haʻu ʻa ho tehina ʻi he kākā, pea kuo ne faʻao ʻo ʻave ʻa ho tāpuaki.”
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?'
Pea pehē ʻe ia, “ʻIkai kuo totonu ʻae fakahingoa ia ko Sēkope? He kuo tuʻo ua ʻene muʻakiʻi au: naʻa ne toʻo ʻo ʻave ʻae lelei ʻoe taʻokete ʻiate au; pea ko eni kuo ne toʻo hoku tāpuaki. Pea pehē ʻe ia, “Kuo ʻikai ha tāpuaki te ke tuku maʻaku?”
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?'
Pea talaange ʻe ʻAisake kia ʻIsoa, ʻo ne pehē; “Vakai mai, kuo u ngaohi ia ko hoʻo ʻeiki, pea ko hono ngaahi kāinga kuo u foaki kiate ia ko ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki: pea kuo u tokoni ʻaki ia ʻae koane mo e uaine: pea ko eni, ko e hā te u fai kiate koe hoku foha?”
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.
Pea pehēange ʻe ʻIsoa ki heʻene tamai, “He ʻoku taha pe hoʻo tāpuaki ʻa ʻeku tamai? Ke ke tāpuaki au, ʻio, ko au foki ʻa ʻeku tamai. Pea hiki hake ʻe ʻIsoa hono leʻo, pea tangi.”
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;
Pea pehēange ʻe heʻene tamai ko ʻAisake kiate ia, “Vakai, ko ho nofoʻanga ʻe ʻi he lelei ʻoe kelekele, pea mo e hahau ʻoe langi mei ʻolunga.
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.'
Pea te ke moʻui ʻi hoʻo heletā, pea te ke tauhi ʻa ho tehina; pea ʻe hoko, ʻo pehē, ʻoka ke ka hoko ki he pule, te ke toki fesiʻi hono haʻamonga mei ho kia.”
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.'
Pea naʻe fehiʻa ʻa ʻIsoa kia Sēkope, koeʻuhi ko e tāpuaki naʻe tāpuaki ʻaki ia ʻe heʻene tamai; pea pehē ʻe ʻIsoa ʻi hono loto, Ko eni kuo ofi ʻae ngaahi ʻaho ke tēngihia ʻa ʻeku tamai, pea te u toki tāmateʻi hoku tehina ko Sēkope.
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;
Pea naʻe fakahā kia Lepeka ʻae ngaahi lea ʻa ʻene ʻuluaki tama ko ʻIsoa: pea fekau ia ke ui ʻa ʻene tama ki mui ko Sēkope ʻo ne pehē kiate ia, “Vakai, ko ho taʻokete ko ʻIsoa, ʻoku ne fakafiemālieʻi ia, ʻi heʻene pehē, ke ne tāmateʻi koe.
43 and now, my son, hearken to my voice, and rise, flee for thyself unto Laban my brother, to Haran,
Pea ko eni ʻeku tama, ke ke muitala ki hoku leʻo; pea ke tuʻu ʻo hola ki hoku tuongaʻane ko Lepani, ʻi Halani;
44 and thou hast dwelt with him some days, till thy brother's fury turn back,
Pea ke nofo mo ia ʻi he ʻaho niʻihi, ke ʻoua ke ʻosi ʻae ʻita ʻa ho taʻokete.
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?'
Ke ʻoua ke afe ʻae ʻita ʻa ho taʻokete meiate koe, pea ʻe ngalo ʻiate ia, ʻaia kuo ke fai kiate ia; pea te u toki fekau ʻo ʻomi koe mei ai: he koeʻumaʻā ʻeku masiva ʻiate kimoua ʻosi pe, ʻi he ʻaho pe taha?”
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?'
Pea pehē ʻe Lepeka kia ʻAisake, “Kuo u fiu ʻi heʻeku moʻui, koeʻuhi ko e ngaahi ʻofefine ʻo Heti; he kapau ʻe fili ʻe Sēkope ha uaifi ʻi he ngaahi ʻofefine ʻo Heti, ʻo hangē ko kinautolu ni ʻae ngaahi ʻofefine ʻoe fonua, ko e hā hono ʻaonga ʻo ʻeku moʻui kiate au?”
