12 Hagi Haga'a Isipi a'mo Sera eri'za e'nerino Abrahamunteti Ismaelina kasente'nea mofavremofo naga'mokizmi naneke.

19 Hagi Abrahamu'a Aisaki nefa'e. Aisaki'pinti fore hu'naza naga'mokizmi naneke.
Lalezi yizizukulwana zikaIsaka indodana kaAbrahama; uAbrahama wazala uIsaka.
20 Aisaki'a 40'a zagegafu huteno Rebekana Betueli mofa eri'ne, Lebani'a Aramea nekino, Mesopotamia mopareti ne'mofo nesaro erigeno, nenaro'za hu'ne.
UIsaka wayeseleminyaka engamatshumi amane mhla ethatha uRebeka, indodakazi kaBethuweli umSiriya wePadani-Arama, udadewabo kaLabani umSiriya, ukuba ngumkakhe.
21 Rebeka'a mofavre ontegeno, Aisaki'a Ra Anumzamofontega nenaro agi erino nunamu higeno, Ra Anumzamo'a nunamuma'a antahi'migeno, Rebeka'a amu'ene hu'ne.
UIsaka wasemncengela umkakhe eNkosini, ngoba wayeyinyumba; iNkosi yasincengeka ngaye, kwaze kwathi uRebeka umkakhe wathatha isisu.
22 Hianagi tare mofavreraremoke arimpafintira kanive nerakeno anage hu'ne, amazana na'a nehie, nehuno Anumzamofona antahige'ne.
Abantwana babebindana-ke ngaphakathi kwakhe; wasesithi: Uba kunjalo, kungani nginje? Wasesiyabuza iNkosi.
23 Ra Anumzamo'a amanage huno asami'ne, Tare kumamoke krimpafina mani'na'e, hiankino tare'mokea arure arure kavufgafinti vu'ne e'ne hugaha'e. Mago'mo'a hanavetina, mago'mo'a hanave otigahie. Ese'ma fore'ma hanimo'a, henkama fore hanimofo eri'za vahe manigahie.
INkosi yasisithi kuye: Izizwe ezimbili zisesizalweni sakho, izizwe ezimbili zizakwehlukana emibilini yakho. Njalo esinye isizwe sizakuba lamandla kulesinye isizwe, futhi omkhulu uzakhonza omncinyane.
24 Hagi mofavrema kasente knama egeno'a, tare kugaveza mofavre arimpafi mani'na'e.
Kwathi sezigcwalisekile insuku zakhe zokubeletha, khangela-ke, amaphahla esiswini sakhe.
25 Kota mofavrema kasenteana, koranke avufgane antegeno hakare avufgamo'a azokake hu'nege'za, agi'a Iso'e hu'za ante'naze.
Kwasekuphuma owokuqala ebomvana, yena wonke enjengesembatho soboya; ngakho bamutha ibizo lakhe bathi nguEsawu.
26 Hanki amefiga'a negna kasentegeno, Iso agiare azerino atiramigeno, agi'a Jekopu'e hu'za antemi'naze. Ana knarera Aisaki'a 60'a zagegafu hutegeno, nenaro'a mofavrea kase zanante'ne.
Njalo emva kwalokho kwaphuma umfowabo, lesandla sakhe sibambelele esithendeni sikaEsawu; basebebiza ibizo lakhe uJakobe. LoIsaka wayeleminyaka engamatshumi ayisithupha ekuzalweni kwabo.
27 Hagi ana mofavre'mokea nena hute'ne, Iso'a zagagafa hofa trampinti ahe ne' mani'negeno, Jekopu'a rimpa frune kazone ne' seli nompi mani'ne.
Abafana basebekhula; uEsawu wasesiba ngumzingeli ohlakaniphileyo, umuntu weganga; loJakobe umuntu obekekileyo ehlala emathenteni.
28 Aisaki'a Isona avesinte'ne, na'ankure agrama zagagafa aheno eme amigeno nenea zankure. Hagi Rebeka'a Jekopu avesinte'ne.
Njalo uIsaka wayemthanda uEsawu ngoba wadla inyama yenyamazana yakhe; kodwa uRebeka wathanda uJakobe.
29 Hagi mago zupa Jekopu'a ne'zana negregeno, Iso'a trampinti agaku nehuno e'ne.
Kwathi uJakobe esephekile ukudla okuphekiweyo, kwasekufika uEsawu evela egangeni, ekhathele.
30 Iso'a amanage huno Jekopuna asmi'ne, Ame'ama hunka antu koranke migri (sup) ne'zana eri namige'na na'neno, na'ankure naganetege'na nehue. E'inama hu'nea agafare mago agi'a Idomu'e hu'za ante'naze.
UEsawu wasesithi kuJakobe: Ake ungivumele ngiginye kokubomvu lokho okubomvu, ngoba ngikhathele. Ngalokhu babiza ibizo lakhe ngokuthi uEdoma.
31 Hagi Jekopu'a amanage hu'ne, Zage mofavremo eri asomura kota'zana nagri namitege'no.
UJakobe wasesithi: Ngithengisela lamuhla ilungelo lobuzibulo bakho.
32 Higeno Iso'a amanage hu'ne, Negano nagra fri'za nehuanki, zage mofavremo eri asomumo'a na'a hunantegahie?
UEsawu wasesithi: Khangela, sengizakufa; njalo liyini kimi ilungelo lobuzibulo?
33 Higeno Jekopu'a amanage huno asmine, Kotazana huvempa hutegeno, higeno agra huvempa hunteno zage mofavremo eriga asomura Jekopu ami'ne.
UJakobe wasesithi: Funga kimi lamuhla. Wasefunga kuye, wathengisa ilungelo lobuzibulo bakhe kuJakobe.
34 Jekopu'a bretine, lentol koheki huno amigeno neteno atreno vu'ne. Iso'a ese mofavremo'ma eriga asomu'agura antahi amneza se'ne.
UJakobe wasenika uEsawu isinkwa lokudla okuphekiweyo kwamalentili; wasesidla wanatha, wasukuma wahamba; ngalokho uEsawu wadelela ilungelo lobuzibulo bakhe.
