Genesisy 27
1 Ary rehefa antitra Isaka, ary pahina ny masony ka tsy nahita, dia niantso an’ i Esao lahimatoany izy ka nanao taminy hoe: Anaka; ary hoy izy taminy kosa: Inty aho.
When Isaac was old and his eyes were so weak that he could no longer see, he called his older son Esau and said to him, “My son.” “Here I am,” Esau replied.
2 Ary hoy izy: Indro fa efa antitra aho, ka tsy fantatro izay andro hahafatesako;
“Look,” said Isaac, “I am now old, and I do not know the day of my death.
3 koa ankehitriny, masìna ianao, alao ny fitifiranao dia ny tranon-jana-tsipìkanao sy ny tsipìkanao, ary mankanesa any an-tsaha, ka ihazao aho;
Take your weapons—your quiver and bow—and go out into the field to hunt some game for me.
4 ary anaovy hanim-py aho araka ilay tiako, ka ento atỳ amiko hohaniko, mba hitsofan’ ny fanahiko rano anao, dieny tsy mbola maty aho.
Then prepare a tasty dish that I love and bring it to me to eat, so that I may bless you before I die.”
5 Ary Rebeka nandre an’ Isaka niteny tamin’ i Esao zananilahy. Ary dia lasa nankany an-tsaha Esao nitady haza ho entiny.
Now Rebekah was listening to what Isaac told his son Esau. So when Esau went into the field to hunt game and bring it back,
6 Ary Rebeka niteny tamin’ i Jakoba zananilahy ka nanao hoe: Indro, efa reko ny rainao niteny tamin’ i Esao rahalahinao nanao hoe:
Rebekah said to her son Jacob, “Behold, I overheard your father saying to your brother Esau,
7 Ihazao aho, ka anaovy hanim-py hohaniko; dia hitso-drano anao aho eo anatrehan’ i Jehovah, dieny tsy mbola maty aho.
‘Bring me some game and prepare me a tasty dish to eat, so that I may bless you in the presence of the LORD before I die.’
8 Koa ankehitriny, anaka, araho ny teniko amin’ izay asaiko ataonao.
Now, my son, listen to my voice and do exactly as I tell you.
9 Mankanesa kely any amin’ ny ondry aman’ osy, ka analao zanak’ osy roa tsara aho; dia hataoko hanim-py ho an’ ny rainao araka ilay tiany izany;
Go out to the flock and bring me two choice young goats, so that I can make them into a tasty dish for your father—the kind he loves.
10 ary dia ho entinao any amin’ ny rainao hohaniny, mba hitsofany rano anao, dieny tsy mbola maty izy.
Then take it to your father to eat, so that he may bless you before he dies.”
11 Fa hoy Jakoba tamin-dRebeka reniny: Indro, Esao rahalahiko dia lehilahy voloina, fa izaho lehilahy malambo hoditra kosa;
Jacob answered his mother Rebekah, “Look, my brother Esau is a hairy man, but I am smooth-skinned.
12 ary angamba hitsapa ahy ikaky, dia ho toy ny mpanandoka eo imasony aho ka hahatonga ozona amiko, fa tsy tso-drano.
What if my father touches me? Then I would be revealed to him as a deceiver, and I would bring upon myself a curse rather than a blessing.”
13 Ary hoy ny reniny taminy: Aoka ho ahy ihany anaka, ny ozona ho anao; araho ihany ny teniko, ka mandehana, itondray aho.
His mother replied, “Your curse be on me, my son. Just obey my voice and go get them for me.”
14 Dia nandeha izy ka naka, ary nitondra tao amin’ ny reniny; ary ny reniny kosa dia nanao hanim-py araka ilay tian’ ny rainy.
So Jacob went and got two goats and brought them to his mother, who made the tasty food his father loved.
15 Ary nalain-dRebeka ny fitafian’ i Esao lahimatoany, dia ny tsara izay efa notehiriziny tao an-trano, ka nampitafiny an’ i Jakoba zanany faralahy.
And Rebekah took the finest clothes in the house that belonged to her older son Esau, and she put them on her younger son Jacob.
16 Ary ny hoditry ny zanak’ osy dia nafonony ny tànany sy ny malambolambo amin’ ny vozony;
She also put the skins of the young goats on his hands and on the smooth part of his neck.
17 dia natolony teo an-tànan’ i Jakoba zanany ny hanim-py sy ny mofo izay efa namboariny.
Then she handed her son Jacob the tasty food and bread she had made.
18 Ary Jakoba nankany amin’ ny rainy ka nanao hoe: Ry ikaky ô! ary hoy kosa izy: Inty aho; iza moa ianao, anaka?
So Jacob went to his father and said, “My father.” “Here I am!” he answered. “Which one are you, my son?”
19 Ary hoy Jakoba tamin-drainy: Izaho no Esao zanakao lahimatoa; efa nanao araka izay nasainao nataoko aho; masìna ianao, miarena, dia mipetraha, ka hano ny hazako, mba hitsofan’ ny fanahinao rano ahy.
Jacob said to his father, “I am Esau, your firstborn. I have done as you told me. Please sit up and eat some of my game, so that you may bless me.”
20 Ary hoy Isaka tamin’ ny zanany: Nanao ahoana, anaka, no dia nalaky nahazo toy izany ianao? Ary hoy izy: Satria Jehovah Andriamanitrao no nampahazo ahy.
But Isaac asked his son, “How did you ever find it so quickly, my son?” “Because the LORD your God brought it to me,” he replied.
21 Ary hoy Isaka tamin’ i Jakoba; Mba manatòna kely hoe hitsapako anao, anaka, hahafantarako na Esao zanako tokoa ianao, na tsia.
Then Isaac said to Jacob, “Please come closer so I can touch you, my son. Are you really my son Esau, or not?”
22 Ary Jakoba nanatona an’ Isaka rainy, ary izy dia nitsapa azy ka nanao hoe: Ny feo dia feon’ i Jakoba, fa ny tanana dia tànan’ i Esao.
So Jacob came close to his father Isaac, who touched him and said, “The voice is the voice of Jacob, but the hands are the hands of Esau.”
23 Ary tsy nahafantatra azy izy, satria voloina tahaka ny tanan’ i Esao rahalahiny ny tànany; dia notsofiny rano izy.
Isaac did not recognize him, because his hands were hairy like those of his brother Esau; so he blessed him.
24 Ary hoy izy: Hianao tokoa moa no Esao zanako? Dia hoy izy: Izaho no izy.
Again he asked, “Are you really my son Esau?” And he replied, “I am.”
25 Ary hoy kosa Isaka: Arosoy eto anoloako ary izato hazan’ ny zanako hihinanako, mba hitsofan’ ny fanahiko rano anao. Ary dia narosony teo anoloany, ka dia nihinana izy; ary nitondrany divay izy, dia nisotro.
“Serve me,” said Isaac, “and let me eat some of my son’s game, so that I may bless you.” Jacob brought it to him, and he ate; then he brought him wine, and he drank.
26 Ary hoy Isaka rainy taminy: Mba manatòna kely ka manoroha ahy, anaka.
Then his father Isaac said to him, “Please come near and kiss me, my son.”
27 Dia nanatona izy ka nanoroka azy; ary Isaka nandre ny fofon’ ny fitafiany, dia nitso-drano azy ka nanao hoe: E! ny fofon’ ny zanako. Dia tahaka ny fofon’ ny saha izay notahin’ i Jehovah.
So he came near and kissed him. When Isaac smelled his clothing, he blessed him and said: “Ah, the smell of my son is like the smell of a field that the LORD has blessed.
28 Ary hanomezan’ Andriamanitra anao anie ny andon’ ny lanitra sy ny tsiron’ ny tany, ary vary sy ranom-boaloboka betsaka.
May God give to you the dew of heaven and the richness of the earth— an abundance of grain and new wine.
29 Hanompo anao anie ny firenena maro, Ary hiankohoka eo anatrehanao ny firenena samy hafa. Ho tompon’ ny rahalahinao anie ianao, ary aoka hiankohoka eo anatrehanao ny zanaky ny reninao. Ho voaozona anie izay rehetra manozona anao, ary hohasoavina anie izay manisy soa anao.
May peoples serve you and nations bow down to you. May you be the master of your brothers, and may the sons of your mother bow down to you. May those who curse you be cursed, and those who bless you be blessed.”
30 Ary rehefa vita ny nitsofan’ Isaka rano an’ i Jakoba, ary vao nidify Jakoba teo anatrehan’ Isaka rainy, dia niditra kosa Esao rahalahiny avy nihaza.
As soon as Isaac had finished blessing him and Jacob had left his father’s presence, his brother Esau returned from the hunt.
31 Ary izy koa nanao hanim-py ka nitondra azy tao amin’ ny rainy; ary hoy izy tamin’ ny rainy: Aoka hiarina ny raiko ka hihinana amin’ ny hazan’ ny zanany, mba hitsofan’ ny fanahinao rano ahy.
He too made some tasty food, brought it to his father, and said to him, “My father, sit up and eat of your son’s game, so that you may bless me.”
32 Fa hoy Isaka rainy taminy: Iza indray moa ianao? Ary hoy izy: Izaho no Esao zanakao lahimatoa.
But his father Isaac replied, “Who are you?” “I am Esau, your firstborn son,” he answered.
33 Ary toran-kovitra indrindra Isaka ka nanao hoe: Iza ary ilay naka haza ka nitondra teto amiko, ary efa nihinanako izany rehetra izany, fony tsy mbola tonga ianao, ka efa notsofiko rano izy; eny, hotahina tokoa izy.
Isaac began to tremble violently and said, “Who was it, then, who hunted the game and brought it to me? Before you came in, I ate it all and blessed him—and indeed, he will be blessed!”
34 Raha vao ren’ i Esao ny tenin’ ny rainy, dia nitaraina mafy dia mafy izy ka nanao taminy hoe: Mba tsofy rano re aho, dia izaho koa, ry ikaky ô.
When Esau heard his father’s words, he let out a loud and bitter cry and said to his father, “Bless me too, O my father!”
35 Ary hoy rainy: Tonga ny rahalahinao nanandoka ka nahalasa ny tso-dranonao.
But Isaac replied, “Your brother came deceitfully and took your blessing.”
36 Dia hoy Esao: Moa tsy mandia va ny anarany hoe Jakoba? fa efa namingana ahy indroa izy izao: ny fizokiako efa nalainy; ary, indro, ankehitriny lasany koa ny tso-dranoko. Ary hoy kosa izy: Tsy mba nitahiry tso-drano ho ahy va ianao?
So Esau declared, “Is he not rightly named Jacob? For he has cheated me twice. He took my birthright, and now he has taken my blessing.” Then he asked, “Haven’t you saved a blessing for me?”
37 Dia namaly Isaka ka nanao tamin’ i Esao hoe: Indro, efa nataoko ho tomponao izy, ary ny rahalahiny rehetra nomeko ho mpanompony; ary vary sy ranom-boaloboka no namelomako azy; koa inona indray no hataoko aminao, anaka?
But Isaac answered Esau: “Look, I have made him your master and given him all his relatives as servants; I have sustained him with grain and new wine. What is left that I can do for you, my son?”
38 Ary hoy Esao tamin’ ny rainy: Tso-drano iray ihany va no anao, ry ikaky? mba tsofy rano re aho, dia izaho koa, ry ikaky ô. Ary Esao dia nanandratra ny feony ka nitomany.
Esau said to his father, “Do you have only one blessing, my father? Bless me too, O my father!” Then Esau wept aloud.
39 Dia namaly Isaka rainy ka nanao taminy hoe: Indro, tsy ho amin’ ny tsiron’ ny tany ny fonenanao, ary tsy ho amin’ ny andon’ ny lanitra avy any ambony;
His father Isaac answered him: “Behold, your dwelling place shall be away from the richness of the land, away from the dew of heaven above.
40 Fa ny sabatrao no hivelomanao, ary ny rahalahinao no hotompoinao; kanefa, raha mby amin’ izay andro hahafahanao. Dia hotapahinao ny ziogany ho afaka amin’ ny vozonao.
You shall live by the sword and serve your brother. But when you rebel, you will tear his yoke from your neck.”
41 Ary Esao nanao fo-lentika tamin’ i Jakoba noho ny tso-drano izay nataon-drainy taminy; dia hoy Esao anakampo: Efa antomotra ny andro hisaonana an’ ikaky, dia hamono an’ i Jakoba rahalahiko aho.
Esau held a grudge against Jacob because of the blessing his father had given him. And Esau said in his heart, “The days of mourning for my father are at hand; then I will kill my brother Jacob.”
42 Ary nisy namambara tamin-dRebeka izany tenin’ i Esao zanany lahimatoa izany; dia naniraka nampaka an’ i Jakoba zanany faralahy izy ka nanao taminy hoe: Indro, Esao rahalahinao mikasa hamaly ny nataonao ka hamono anao.
When the words of her older son Esau were relayed to Rebekah, she sent for her younger son Jacob and told him, “Look, your brother Esau is consoling himself by plotting to kill you.
43 Ary ankehitriny, anaka, araho ny teniko; miainga ka mandosira ho any Harana, dia any amin’ i Labana anadahiko.
So now, my son, obey my voice and flee at once to my brother Laban in Haran.
44 Ary mitoera any aminy andro vitsivitsy mandra-pahafaky ny fahatezeran’ ny rahalahinao,
Stay with him for a while, until your brother’s fury subsides—
45 eny, mandra-pahafaky ny fahatezeran’ ny rahalahinao aminao, ka ho hadinony izay nataonao taminy; dia haniraka aho ka hampaka anao any; hataoko ahoana no famoy anareo mirahalahy indray andro?
until your brother’s rage against you wanes and he forgets what you have done to him. Then I will send for you and bring you back from there. Why should I lose both of you in one day?”
46 Ary hoy Rebeka tamin’ Isaka: Tsy te-ho velona aho noho ireny zanakavavin’ ny Hetita; raha maka vady amin’ ny zanakavavin’ ny Hetita Jakoba, tahaka ireto izay avy amin’ ny zazavavy tompon-tany koa hataoko inona ny aiko?
Then Rebekah said to Isaac, “I am weary of my life because of these Hittite women. If Jacob takes a Hittite wife from among them, what good is my life?”
