Olubereberye 27
1 Awo Isaaka bwe yali ng’akaddiye nnyo n’amaaso ge nga gayimbadde, nga takyayinza kulaba, n’ayita Esawu mutabani we omukulu, n’amugamba nti, “Mutabani,” n’amuddamu nti, “Nze nzuuno.”
Isak bɔɔ akɔkoraa a nʼani so ayɛ no wisiwisi na ɔnhunu adeɛ papa no, ɛda koro bi, ɔfrɛɛ ne babarima panin Esau. “Me ba.” Ɛnna Esau gyee so sɛ, “Agya, menie.”
2 Isaaka n’amugamba nti, “Laba, nkaddiye, simanyi lwe ndifa.
Isak kaa sɛ, “Seesei mabɔ akɔkoraa, na mennim ɛda a mɛwu.
3 Kale kaakano kwata by’oyizza, omutego gwo n’obusaale bwo, ogende mu nsiko onjiggire yo omuyiggo.
Fa wʼagyan ne wo bɛmma, na kɔ wiram kɔpɛ hanam bi brɛ me.
4 Onteekereteekere ekyokulya ekiwooma ennyo kye njagala, okindeetere nkirye, ndyoke nkusabire omukisa nga sinnafa.”
Fa noa mʼakɔnnɔduane no bi brɛ me, na menni, na menhyira wo ansa na mawu.”
5 Ne Lebbeeka yali awo ng’awuliriza, Isaaka ng’agamba mutabani we omukulu Esawu. Awo Esawu bwe yagenda mu nsiko okuyigga omuyiggo aguleete,
Ɛberɛ a Isak ne ne ba Esau rekasa no, na Rebeka retie. Enti, ɛberɛ a Esau kɔɔ sɛ ɔrekɔkum ɛnam no aba pɛ, ɛnna
6 Lebbeeka n’agamba mutabani we Yakobo owookubiri nti, “Mpulidde kitaawo ng’agamba muganda wo Esawu nti,
Rebeka ka kyerɛɛ ne ba Yakob sɛ, “Yakob tie! Metee sɛ wʼagya reka akyerɛ wo nua Esau sɛ,
7 ‘Ndeetera omuyiggo onteekereteekere ekyokulya ekiwooma obulungi, nkirye, ndyoke nkusabire omukisa eri Mukama nga sinnafa.’
‘Kɔpɛ hanam bi fa noa mʼakɔnnɔduane no bi brɛ me, na menni, na menhyira wo wɔ Awurade anim, ansa na mawu.’
8 Kale nno kaakano mwana wange wulira kye nkugamba.
Afei, me ba, tie asɛm a merebɛka akyerɛ wo yi yie, na di so.
9 Genda eri ekisibo ondeeteremu embuzi bbiri ennungi, nfumbire kitaawo ekyokulya ekiwooma, nga bw’ayagala,
Kɔ nnwankuo no mu, na kɔkyere nnwan mmienu a wɔadɔre sradeɛ brɛ me, na memfa nnoa akɔnnɔduane, sɛdeɛ wʼagya pɛ no pɛpɛɛpɛ mma no.
10 okitwalire kitaawo akirye, alyoke akusabire omukisa nga tannafa.”
Sɛ menoa wie a, fa kɔma no, na ɔnni, na ɔnhyira wo ansa na wawu.”
11 Naye Yakobo n’agamba Lebbeeka nnyina nti, “Muganda wange Esawu musajja wa byoya, so nga nze ndi muweweevu.
Yakob ka kyerɛɛ ne maame Rebeka sɛ, “Wonim sɛ me nua Esau ho wɔ nwi, na me nso, me ho yɛ toromtorom.
12 Singa kitange anampeeweetako, siifuuke mulimba gy’ali, ne nfuna ekikolimo mu kifo ky’okufuna omukisa?”
Sɛ ɛba sɛ mʼagya de ne nsa fa me ho, na ɔhunu sɛ ɛnyɛ Esau a, ɛbɛyɛ sɛ gyama meredaadaa no, na wadome me mmom, sene sɛ anka ɔbɛhyira me.”
13 Nnyina n’amuddamu nti, “Ekikolimo kyo kibe ku nze mwana wange; wulira ekigambo kyange ogende ozindeetere.”
Yakob maame ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Me ba, ma nnome no mmra me so. Wo deɛ, yɛ deɛ maka akyerɛ wo no ara. Kɔ na kɔkyere nnwan no brɛ me.”
14 Awo Yakobo n’agenda, n’azikwata n’azireeteera nnyina, n’ateekerateekera Isaaka ekyokulya ekiwooma nga bwe yayagala.
Enti, Yakob tiee ne maame Rebeka asɛm, kɔkyeree nnwan no brɛɛ no. Na ɔkumm wɔn, de noaa akɔnnɔduane bi, sɛdeɛ Isak pɛ no pɛpɛɛpɛ.
15 Lebbeeka n’addira ebyambalo ebisinga obulungi ebya Esawu, mutabani we omukulu, ebyali mu nnyumba; n’abyambaza Yakobo mutabani we omuto,
Ɛno akyiri no, Rebeka faa ne ba panin Esau atadeɛ papa bi a ɛwɔ fie hɔ de maa ne ba Yakob hyɛeɛ.
16 era n’addira n’amaliba g’embuzi n’agamwambaza ku mikono ne ku bitundu ebyobulago ebiweweera.
Afei, ɔde nnwan a wɔkumm wɔn no nwoma yɛɛ ahyɛnsa, kataa Yakob nsa ho. Ɔde bi kataa ne kɔn ho nyinaa.
17 N’alyoka addira ekyokulya ekiwooma n’omugaati bye yafumba, n’abikwasa Yakobo mutabani we.
Ɔde burodo a wato no foforɔ kaa akɔnnɔduane a wanoa no ho, de maa ne ba Yakob.
18 Awo Yakobo n’agenda eri kitaawe, n’amugamba nti, “Kitange nzuuno.” Ye n’amuddamu nti, “Ggwe ani mwana wange?”
Yakob de aduane no kɔmaa nʼagya Isak wɔ ne dan mu. Ɔduruu hɔ no, ɔkaa sɛ, “Agya!” Isak buaa sɛ, “Mewɔ hɔ na wo hwan a?”
19 Yakobo n’agamba kitaawe nti, “Nze Esawu omwana wo omubereberye, nkoze nga bw’oŋŋambye. Kale kaakano tuula olye ku muyiggo gwange olyoke onsabire omukisa.”
Yakob ka kyerɛɛ nʼagya sɛ, “Ɛyɛ me wʼabakan Esau. Mayɛ deɛ woka kyerɛɛ me sɛ menyɛ no. Mede hanam a wopɛ no bi anoa wʼakɔnnɔduane no abrɛ wo, enti mesrɛ wo, sɔre tena ase, na didi, na sɛ wodidi wie a, woahyira me.”
20 Naye Isaaka n’abuuza mutabani we nti, “Ogufunye otya amangu bw’otyo?” N’amuddamu nti, “Mukama Katonda wo ampadde omukisa.”
Isak bisaa ne ba no sɛ, “Ɛyɛɛ sɛn na wo ho ayɛ hare sɛɛ yi?” Yakob buaa sɛ, “Awurade, wo Onyankopɔn no, na ɔgyinaa mʼakyi maa me nsa kaa hanam no bi ntɛm.”
21 Awo Isaaka n’agamba mutabani we nti, “Sembera wendi mutabani, nkukwateko, ntegeerere ddala nga ggwe mutabani wange Esawu.”
Afei, Isak ka kyerɛɛ Yakob sɛ, “Me ba, twe bɛn me, na memfa me nsa nka wo nhwɛ sɛ, wo ne me ba Esau no ampa anaa.”
22 Yakobo kwe kusembera awali Isaaka kitaawe. Bwe yamuwulira n’agamba nti, “Eddoboozi lya Yakobo naye emikono gya Esawu.”
Yakob twe bɛn nʼagya Isak, na ɔde ne nsa kekaa ne ho kaa sɛ, “Nne yi yɛ Yakob nne, nanso nsa yi yɛ Esau deɛ.”
23 N’atamutegeera kubanga emikono gye gyaliko obwoya ng’egya Esawu muganda we, kwe kumuwa omukisa.
Isak anhunu sɛ ɛyɛ Yakob, ɛfiri sɛ, na ne nsa ho wɔ nwi te sɛ ne nua Esau pɛpɛɛpɛ. Enti, ɔhyiraa no.
24 Isaaka n’amubuuza nti, “Ddala gwe mwana wange Esawu?” N’amuddamu nti, “Ye nze.”
Isak sane bisaa Yakob sɛ, “Enti, ampa ara sɛ wo ne me ba Esau no?” Yakob buaa sɛ, “Aane, me ne Esau.”
25 N’alyoka amugamba nti, “Kale gundeetere, ndye ku muyiggo gwa mutabani wange, nkusabire omukisa.” N’alyoka agumuleetera, n’alya era n’amuleetera n’envinnyo n’anywa.
Afei, Isak kaa sɛ, “Me ba, fa wʼaduane no brɛ me na menni, na medi wie a, mahyira wo.” Yakob de aduane no brɛɛ nʼagya Isak, na ɔdiiɛ; ɔsane de nsã brɛɛ no ma ɔnomeeɛ.
26 Awo kitaawe Isaaka n’amugamba nti, “Sembera onnywegere mwana wange.”
Isak wieeɛ no, ɔka kyerɛɛ Yakob sɛ, “Me ba, bra bɛfe mʼano!”
27 N’amusemberera n’amunywegera, kitaawe n’awulira akaloosa ke ngoye ze n’amuwa omukisa ng’agamba nti, “Wulira akaloosa k’omwana wange, kali ng’akaloosa k’ennimiro Mukama gy’awadde omukisa.
Enti, Yakob kɔɔ nʼagya Isak nkyɛn kɔfee nʼano. Ɛberɛ a Isak huaa Yakob atadeɛ mu, na ɔgye too mu sɛ, ɛyɛ ne ba Esau no, ɔhyiraa no sɛ, “Ampa ara! Me ba ho hwa te sɛ ehwa a ɛfiri afuo a Awurade ahyira so no mu.
28 Katonda akuwe omusulo ogw’omu ggulu, n’obugimu bw’ensi, era akuwe emmere ey’empeke nnyingi n’envinnyo.
Onyankopɔn mma wo ɔsoro bosuo ne asase mu sradeɛ, na afuom aduane ne nsã mmu wo so.
29 Abantu bakuweerezenga, n’amawanga gakuvuunamirenga. Fuganga baganda bo, ne batabani ba nnyoko bakuvuunamirenga. Akolimirwe oyo anaakukolimiranga era aweebwenga omukisa oyo anaakusabiranga omukisa.”
Amanaman bɛsom wo, na nnipa nyinaa abu wo nkotodwe. Wobɛdi wo nuanom so, na wo maame mma nso akoto wo. Wɔbɛdome wɔn a wɔdome wo nyinaa, na wɔn a wɔhyira wo nyinaa nso, wɔbɛhyira wɔn.”
30 Amangu ddala nga Isaaka yakamala okuwa Yakobo omukisa, era nga Yakobo tannava wali Isaaka kitaabwe, Esawu n’atuuka ng’ava okuyigga.
Isak hyiraa Yakob wieeɛ, na ɔfirii nʼagya nkyɛn kɔeɛ ara pɛ, na ne nua Esau firi nʼahayɔ baeɛ.
31 Era naye n’ateekateeka emmere ey’akawoowo n’agireetera kitaawe. N’agamba kitaawe nti, “Kitange golokoka olye ku muyiggo gw’omwana wo olyoke onsabire omukisa.”
Ɔno nso noaa akɔnnɔduane brɛɛ nʼagya. Na ɔka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Agya, sɔre na di me hanamduane no, na hyira me.”
32 Kitaawe Isaaka n’amubuuza nti, “Gwe ani?” Kwe kumuddamu nti, “Nze omwana wo omubereberye Esawu.”
Nʼagya Isak bisaa no sɛ, “Na hwan nie?” Esau buaa sɛ, “Ɛyɛ me wʼabakan Esau.”
33 Olwo Isaaka n’akankana nnyo n’abuuza nti, “Ani oyo ayizze omuyiggo n’agundeetera ne ngulya ne ngumalawo nga tonnajja ne mmusabira omukisa? Era ddala ajja kuweebwa omukisa.”
Isak tee saa asɛm yi pɛ, ne ho hyɛɛ aseɛ wosoo biribiribiri, na ɔbisaa sɛ, “Ɛnneɛ, na hwan na ɔkɔɔ ahayɔ kɔkumm ɛnam de noaa aduane brɛɛ me yi. Medidi wieeɛ hyiraa onipa ko no pɛ na wobaeɛ yi? Nokorɛ mu ni, nhyira a mahyira no no, sɛ mesane mʼano a, ɛrenyɛ yie!”
34 Awo Esawu bwe yawulira ebigambo bya kitaawe ebyo, n’atulika n’akaaba nnyo nnyini, n’agamba kitaawe nti, “Nange mpa omukisa, ayi kitange.”
Ɛberɛ a Esau tee asɛm a nʼagya kaeɛ no, ɔno nso de awerɛhoɔ teaam dendeenden, ka kyerɛɛ nʼagya sɛ, “Agya! Hyira me. Hyira me nso bi!”
35 Naye n’amuddamu nti, “Muganda wo azze n’annimba era akututteko omukisa gwo.”
Nanso, Isak kaa sɛ, “Ɛnneɛ, na wo nua na ɔde nnaadaa abɛgye wo nhyira kɔ!”
36 Esawu n’ayogera nti, “Teyatuumibwa linnya lye Yakobo? Laba, anyingiridde emirundi gino gyombi; yanziggyako eby’obukulu bwange, ate kaakano antutteko n’omukisa gwange.” Kwe kubuuza kitaawe nti, “Tondekeddeewo mukisa n’akatono?”
Esau kaa sɛ, “Ɛnyɛ nwanwa sɛ wɔfrɛ no Yakob a aseɛ kyerɛ nantitwitwafoɔ. Yei ne ne mprenu so a wadaadaa me. Deɛ ɛdi ɛkan ne sɛ, ɔdaadaa me gyee me panin. Deɛ ɛtɔ so mmienu nso ne sɛ, ɔde nnaadaa agye me nhyira!” Afei, Esau bisaa nʼagya sɛ, “Enti, woannya me nhyira no bi a wode bɛhyira me nso?”
37 Isaaka n’addamu Esawu nti, “Laba, mmufudde mukama wo, era mmuwadde baganda be bonna babe baweereza be, era mmusabidde abe n’emmere ey’empeke wamu n’envinnyo nga bingi ddala. Kale nnaakukolera ki mwana wange?”
Isak buaa Esau sɛ, “Manya de no ayɛ wo wura dada. Mede ne nuanom nyinaa ayɛ ne nkoa. Mahyira no sɛ, ɔbɛnya afuom nnuane ne nsã foforɔ bebree. Na afei, ɛdeɛn bio na aka a mɛtumi ayɛ ama wo, me ba?”
38 Esawu n’abuuza kitaawe nti, “Tolinaawo mukisa na gumu kitange? Nange mpa omukisa, ayi kitange.” Bw’atyo Esawu n’ayimusa eddoboozi lye n’akaaba.
Esau bisaa nʼagya sɛ, “Agya, enti nhyira baako pɛ na wowɔ? Ao, agya, hyira me nso bi!”
39 Awo Isaaka kitaawe n’amuddamu nti, “Laba, onooberanga mu nsi enkalu, era toofunenga musulo guva waggulu mu ggulu.
Afei, nʼagya Isak buaa no sɛ, “Tie! Asase kesee so na wobɛtena, na ɛsoro bosuo rentɔ wɔ so.
40 Ekitala kyo kye kinaakukuumanga, era onooweerezanga muganda wo. Naye bw’olimwesimattulako, oliba weefunidde eddembe.”
Wode wo akofena na ɛbɛtena ase, na woasom wo nua kumaa. Nanso, daakye bi, sɛ wokentene wo ho a, wobɛfiri wo nua no som ase.”
41 Awo Esawu n’akyawa muganda we Yakobo ng’amulanga omukisa kitaabwe gwe yamuwa. Esawu n’alyoka ayogera nti, “Ennaku ez’okukungubagira kitange zinaatera okutuuka. Bwe zirituuka, muganda wange Yakobo nga mutta.”
Esiane Esau nhyira a Yakob kɔdaadaa wɔn agya Isak gyeeɛ no enti, Esau tanee Yakob. Esau kaa wɔ ne tirim sɛ, “Ɛrenkyɛre, na mʼagya Isak awu. Sɛ ɔnya wu a, mɛkum me nua Yakob.”
42 Kyokka Lebbeeka n’atuusibwako ebigambo bya Esawu mutabani we omukulu; kwe kutumya Yakobo mutabani we omuto, n’amugamba nti, “Laba, Esawu muganda wo ateekateeka okukutta.
Obi tee adwene a Esau afa wɔ ne nua kumaa Yakob ho no, ɔkɔbɔɔ wɔn maame Rebeka amanneɛ. Enti, Rebeka soma kɔfrɛɛ ne ba kumaa Yakob, na ɔka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Wo nua Esau abɔ ne tirim sɛ, sɛ ɔnya wo a, ɔbɛkum wo ansa na ne bo atɔ ne yam.
43 Kale nno kaakano mwana wange, okole nga bwe nkugamba: Golokoka oddukire ewa, mwannyinaze Labbaani ali mu Kalani,
Enti, me ba, tie asɛm a merebɛka akyerɛ wo yi yie. Dwane ntɛm kɔ me nua Laban nkyɛn wɔ Haran.
44 obeereko eyo, okutuusa obusungu bwa muganda wo nga bukkakkanye.
Tena ne nkyɛn kakra wɔ hɔ, kɔsi sɛ, wo nua Esau bo bɛdwo.
45 Obusungu bwe buliba bumuweddeko, nga yeerabidde ky’omukoze, ne ndyoka ntuma ne bakunona. Kale lwaki mbafiirwa mwembi ku lunaku olumu?”
Sɛ wo nua akoma tɔ ne yam, na ne werɛ firi deɛ woyɛɛ no, na ɔgyaa mu ma ɛka a, mɛsoma abɛka akyerɛ wo, na woafiri Haran aba. Adɛn enti na ɛsɛ sɛ metena hɔ hwɛ, na me mma baanu bom wu ɛda koro?”
46 Lebbeeka n’alyoka ategeeza Isaaka nti, “Obulamu bwange bwetamiddwa olw’abakazi bano Abakiiti. Singa Yakobo awasa omu ku bakazi Abakiiti, nga bano, omu ku bakazi aba muno, obulamu bwange buliba tebukyangasa.”
Enti, Rebeka ka kyerɛɛ Isak sɛ, “Saa Hetifoɔ mmabaawa yi koraa ama asetena afono me. Sɛ ɛkɔba sɛ Yakob nso kɔware Hetifoɔ asase so mmabaawa yi bi a, mmaa te sɛ yeinom bi a, ɛnneɛ, na mewuiɛ koraa a, anka ɛyɛ.”
