< उत्पत्ति 27 >

1 जब इसहाक वृद्ध भए र तिनका आँखा कमजोर भएर देख्‍न नसक्‍ने भए, तब तिनले आफ्‍ना जेठा छोरा एसावलाई बोलाएर भने, “ए मेरो छोरो ।” उनले तिनलाई जवाफ दिए, “हजुर, म यहीँ छु ।”
When Isaac was old and his eyes were dim so that he could not see, he called Esau, his older son, and said to him, “My son.” He said to him, “Here I am.”
2 तिनले भने, “हेर्, म वृद्ध भएँ । मेरो मर्ने दिनको बारेमा मलाई थाहा छैन ।
He said, “See here, I am old. I do not know the day of my death.
3 अब तेरा हतियारहरू, अर्थात्‌ तेरो ठोक्रो र धनु लिएर मैदानमा जा, र मेरो निम्‍ति सिकार गर् ।
Therefore take your weapons, your quiver and your bow, and go out to the field and hunt game for me.
4 मलाई मनपर्ने स्‍वादिष्‍ठ तरकारी बनाई मकहाँ ले ताकि यो खाएर मेरो मृत्‍युअगि म तँलाई आशिष्‌ दिऊँ ।”
Make delicious food for me, the sort that I love, and bring it to me so I can eat it and bless you before I die.”
5 इसहाकले आफ्नो छोरो एसावसँग कुरा गरेको रिबेकाले सुनिन् । एसाव शिकार मारेर ल्‍याउन मैदानमा गए ।
Now Rebekah heard it when Isaac spoke to Esau his son. Esau went to the field to hunt for game and bring it back.
6 रिबेकाले आफ्‍ना छोरा याकूबलाई भनिन्, “हेर्, तेरा पिताले तेरो दाजु एसावसँग यसो भनेर कुरा गरेको मैले सुनेँ ।
Rebekah spoke to Jacob her son and said, “See here, I heard your father speak to Esau your brother. He said,
7 ‘सिकार मारेर मकहाँ ले र मलाई मनपर्ने स्‍वादिष्‍ठ तरकारी बना ताकि यो खाएर मेरो मृत्‍युअगि परमप्रभुको सामुन्‍ने तँलाई आशिष्‌ दिन सकूँ ।’
'Bring me game and make me delicious food, that I may eat it and bless you in the presence of Yahweh before my death.'
8 यसकारण यसकारण ए मेरो छोरो, मैले तँलाई दिएका आज्ञा मान् ।
Now therefore, my son, obey my voice as I command you.
9 बथानमा गएर दुईवटा असल पाठा लिएर आइज, र म तेरा बुबालाई मनपर्ने स्‍वादिष्‍ठ तरकारी बनाउनेछु ।
Go to the flock, and bring me two good young goats; and I will make delicious food from them for your father, just like he loves.
10 अनि तैंले त्‍यो तेरा बुबाकहाँ लैजा, ताकि तिनले यो खाएर आफ्‍नो मृत्‍युअगि तँलाई आशिष्‌ देऊन् ।”
You will take it to your father, so that he may eat it, so that he may bless you before his death.”
11 याकूबले आफ्‍नी आमा रिबेकालाई भने, “हेर्नुहोस्, मेरा दाजु एसाव रौँ नै रौँ भएका मानिस हुन्‌, र मचाहिँ रौँ नभएको छु ।
Jacob said to Rebekah his mother, “See, Esau my brother is a hairy man, and I am a smooth man.
12 सायद मेरा पिताले मलाई छाम्‍नुहुनेछ, र उहाँको सामु म छली देखिनेछु । मैले ममाथि आशिष्‌ होइन, सराप ल्याउनेछु ।”
Perhaps my father will touch me, and I will seem to him as a deceiver. I will bring a curse upon me and not a blessing.”
13 तिनकी आमाले तिनलाई भनिन्, “हे मेरो छोरो, जुनसुकै सराप भए पनि त्यो ममाथि नै परोस्‌ । केवल मेरो कुरा मान्, र गएर ती मकहाँ ले ।”
His mother said to him, “My son, let any curse fall on me. Just obey my voice, and go, bring them to me.”
14 तब तिनी गएर ती पाठा ल्‍याए र आमालाई दिए, र तिनकी आमाले याकूबका बुबालाई मनपर्ने स्‍वादिष्‍ठ तरकारी तयार गरिन्‌ ।
So Jacob went and got the young goats and brought them to his mother, and his mother made delicious food, just like his father loved.
15 रिबेकाले घरमा भएका आफ्‍ना जेठो छोरो एसावका असल लुगाहरू झिकेर आफ्नो कान्‍छा छोरो याकूबलाई लगाइदिइन्‌ ।
Rebekah took the best clothes of Esau, her older son, which were with her in the house, and put them on Jacob, her younger son.
16 बाख्राका पाठाका छालाहरू तिनले याकूबका हात र घाँटीका रौँ नभएका भागमा लगाइदिइन्,
She put the skins of the young goats on his hands and on the smooth part of his neck.
17 अनि आफूले तयार पारेका स्‍वादिष्‍ठ तरकारी र रोटी आफ्‍ना छोरा याकूबका हातमा दिइन्‌ ।
She put the delicious food and the bread that she had prepared into the hand of her son Jacob.
18 याकूबले आफ्‍ना पिताकहाँ गएर भने, “बुबा ।” इसहाकले भने, “हँ, तँ को होस्‌?”
Jacob went to his father and said, “My father.” He said, “Here I am; who are you, my son?”
19 याकूबले आफ्‍ना पितालाई भने, “म तपाईंको जेठो छोरो एसाव हुँ । तपाईंले मलाई भनेबमोजिम मैले गरेको छु । अब उठेर बस्‍नुहोस्, र मैले ल्‍याएको सिकारको मासु खानुहोस्, र मलाई आशिष्‌ दिनुहोस्‌ ।”
Jacob said to his father, “I am Esau your firstborn; I have done as you said to me. Now sit up and eat some of my game, that you may bless me.”
20 इसहाकले आफ्‍ना छोरालाई भने, “मेरो छोरो, कसरी तैँले यति चाँडै त्‍यो भेट्टाउन सकिस्‌?” तिनले भने, “परमप्रभु तपाईंका परमेश्‍वरले यसलाई मकहाँ ल्याउनुभयो ।”
Isaac said to his son, “How is it that you have found it so quickly, my son?” He said, “Because Yahweh your God brought it to me.”
21 इसहाकले याकूबलाई भने, “मेरो छोरो, नजिकै आइज, तँ मेरो छोरो एसाव होस्‌ कि होइनस्‌ म छामेर थाहा पाउन सकूँ ।”
Isaac said to Jacob, “Come near me, so I may touch you, my son, and learn whether you are my true son Esau or not.”
22 याकूब आफ्‍ना पिताको नजिकै गए, र इसहाकले तिनलाई छामेर भने, “सोर त याकूबको हो, तर हातहरू त एसावकै हुन्‌ ।”
Jacob went over to Isaac his father; and Isaac touched him and said, “The voice is Jacob's voice, but the hands are the hands of Esau.”
23 तिनका हातहरू तिनका दाजु एसावकै हातजस्‍ता रौँ नै रौँ भएका हुनाले इसहाकले तिनलाई चिनेनन्‌, त्यसैले इसहाकले तिनलाई आशिष्‌ दिए ।
Isaac did not recognize him, because his hands were hairy, like his brother Esau's hands, so Isaac blessed him.
24 इसहाकले सोधे, “के तँ साँच्‍चै मेरो छोरो एसाव नै होस्‌?” याकूबले जवाफ दिए, “म एसाव नै हुँ ।”
He said, “Are you really my son Esau?” He replied, “I am.”
25 तब इसहाकले भने, “तैँले शिकार गरेको मासु यहाँ ले, र म खानेछु, र तँलाई आशिष्‌ दिऊँ ।” याकूबले त्‍यो मासु आफ्‍ना पिताकहाँ ल्‍याए । उनले खाए र याकूबले दाखमद्य पनि लगिदिए, र उनले पिए ।
Isaac said, “Bring the food to me, and I will eat of your game, so that I may bless you.” Jacob brought the food to him. Isaac ate, and Jacob brought him wine, and he drank.
26 तब तिनका पिता इसहाकले तिनलाई भने, “मेरो छोरो, मेरो नजिकै आएर मलाई मलाई चुम्बन गर् ।”
Then his father Isaac said to him, “Come near now and kiss me, my son.”
27 याकूब नजिक गएर आफ्‍ना पितालाई चुम्बन गरे । अनि इसहाकले तिनका लुगाहरूको गन्‍ध सुँघेर यसो भनी आशिष्‌ दिए, “हेर, मेरो छोराको बास्‍ना, परमप्रभुले आशिष्‌ दिनुभएको खेतको बास्‍नाजस्‍तै छ ।
Jacob came near and kissed him, and he smelled the smell of his clothes and blessed him. He said, “See, the smell of my son is like the smell of a field that Yahweh has blessed.
28 परमेश्‍वरले तँलाई आकाशको शीत र पृथ्‍वीको प्रचुरता अनि धेरै दाखमद्य र अन्‍न देऊन् ।
May God give you a portion of the dew of heaven, a portion of the fatness of the earth, and plenty of grain and new wine.
29 मानिसहरूले तेरो सेवा गरून्‌ र जाति-जातिहरूले तँलाई दण्‍डवत्‌ गरून्‌ । तेरा दाजुभाइहरूको मालिक बन्, र तेरी आमाका छोराहरूले तँलाई दण्‍डवत्‌ गरून्‌ । तँलाई सराप्‍नेहरू सबै श्रापित होऊन्, र तँलाई आशिष्‌ दिनेहरू सबैले आशिष्‌ पाऊन्‌ ।”
May peoples serve you and nations bow down to you. Be master over your brothers, and may your mother's sons bow down to you. May every one who curses you be cursed; may every one who blesses you be blessed.”
30 इसहाकले आशिष्‌ दिइसक्‍ने बित्तिकै याकूब आफ्‍ना पिता इसहाकको उपस्थितिबाट निस्‍केर गएका मात्र थिए, उनका उनका दाजु एसाव शिकार खेलेर आइपुगे ।
As soon as Isaac had finished blessing Jacob, and Jacob had scarcely gone out from the presence of Isaac his father, Esau his brother came in from his hunting.
31 उनले पनि स्‍वादिष्‍ठ तरकारी तयार गरेर आफ्‍ना पिताकहाँ ल्‍याए । उनले आफ्‍नो पितालाई भने, “बुबा, उठेर आफ्‍नो छोराले ल्‍याएको सिकार खानुहोस्, र मलाई आशिष्‌ दिनुहोस्‌ ।”
He also made delicious food and brought it to his father. He said to his father, “Father, get up and eat some of your son's game, so that you may bless me.”
32 उनका पिता इसहाकले उनलाई सोधे, “तँ को होस्‌?” उनले उत्तर दिए, “म तपाईंको जेठो छोरो एसाव हुँ ।”
Isaac his father said to him, “Who are you?” He said, “I am your son, your firstborn, Esau.”
33 इसहाक बेसरी कामे र भने, “त्यसो भए सिकार मारेर यहाँ मकहाँ ल्‍याउने त्यो को थियो? तँ आउन अगि नै मैले त्‍यो सबै खाएर त्‍यसलाई आशिष्‌ दिइसकेँ । वास्तवमा, त्‍योचाहिँ आशीर्वादी हुनेछ।”
Isaac trembled very much and said, “Who was it that hunted this game and brought it to me? I ate it all before you came, and I have blessed him. Indeed, he will be blessed.”
34 जब एसावले आफ्‍ना पिता इसहाकका कुरा सुने तब उनी अत्‍यन्‍तै विह्वल भई चर्को सोरले रोए र आफ्‍ना पितालाई भने, “हे मेरा बुबा, मलाई पनि आशिष्‌ दिनुहोस्‌ ।”
When Esau heard the words of his father, he cried with a very great and bitter cry, and said to his father, “Bless me, me also, my father.”
35 इसहाकले भने, “तेरो भाइ छल गरेर आयो, र तैंले पाउने आशिष्‌ लग्यो ।”
Isaac said, “Your brother came here deceitfully and has taken away your blessing.”
36 एसावले भने, “त्‍यसको नाउँ याकूब राखिएको के ठिकै होइन? किनभने त्‍यसले मलाई दुई पल्‍ट ठग्यो । त्‍यसले मेरो ज्‍येष्‍ठ-अधिकार हर्‍यो, र अहिले मैले पाउने आशिष्‌ पनि लग्‍यो ।” उनले फेरि भने, “के तपाईंले मेरो निम्‍ति एउटै आशिष्‌ पनि जगेडा राख्‍नुभएको छैन?”
Esau said, “Is he not rightly named Jacob? For he has cheated me these two times. He took away my birthright, and, see, now he has taken away my blessing.” Then he said, “Have you not reserved a blessing for me?”
37 इसहाकले एसावलाई जवाफ दिए, “हेर्, मैले त्‍यसलाई तेरो मालिक तुल्‍याइसकेँ । र त्‍यसका सबै दाजुभाइहरूलाई मैले त्‍यसका दास तुल्‍याएँ । अन्‍न र दाखमद्यले मैले त्‍यसलाई तृप्‍त पारेको छु । अब तेरो निम्‍ति म के गर्न सक्‍छु र, छोरो?”
Isaac answered and said to Esau, “Look, I have made him your master, and I have given to him all his brothers as servants, and I have given him grain and new wine. What more can I do for you, my son?”
38 एसावले आफ्‍ना पितालाई भने, “तपाईंसित मेरो निम्ति एउटै मात्र आशिष्‌ छैन र मेरा बुबा? मलाई पनि त आशिष्‌ दिनुहोस्‌ ।” एसाव डाँको छोडेर रोए ।
Esau said to his father, “Have you not even one blessing for me, my father? Bless me, even me too, my father.” Esau wept loudly.
39 उनका पिता इसहाकले जवाफ दिएर भने, “हेर्, तँ बस्‍ने जमिन पृथ्‍वीको प्रशस्‍तताबाट बाहिरै हुनेछ, आकाशको शीतबाट बाहिर ।
Isaac his father answered and said to him, “Look, the place where you live will be far from the richness of the earth, away from the dew of the sky above.
40 तैंले आफ्‍नो तरवारको बलले जीविका चलाउनेछस् र तैंले तेरो भाइको सेवा गर्नेछस्‌ । तर जब तैंले विद्रोह गर्नेछस्, तब त्‍यसको जुवा तेरो काँधबाट हल्‍लाएर फ्‍याँक्‍नेछस्‌ ।”
By your sword you will live, and you will serve your brother. But when you rebel, you will shake his yoke from off your neck.”
41 आफ्‍ना पिताले याकूबलाई दिएको त्‍यस आशिष्‌ले गर्दा एसावले तिनलाई घृणा गर्न लागे । एसावले हृदयमा भने, “मेरा पिताको शोकको बेला नजिकै छ । त्‍यसपछि म मेरो भाइ याकूबलाई मार्नेछु ।”
Esau hated Jacob because of the blessing that his father had given him. Esau said in his heart, “The days of mourning for my father are near; after that I will kill my brother Jacob.”
42 तिनका जेठा छोरा एसावको यो कुरा रिबेकालाई सुनाइयो । यसकारण रिबेकाले आफ्‍ना कान्‍छा छोरा याकूबलाई बोलाएर भनिन्, “हेर्, तेरो दाजु एसावले तँलाई मार्ने विचार गरेर आफ्‍नो चित्त बुझाएको छ ।
The words of Esau her older son were told to Rebekah. So she sent and called Jacob her younger son and said to him, “See, your brother Esau is consoling himself about you by planning to kill you.
43 यसकारण मेरो छोरो, मैले भनेको कुरा मान्‌ र हारानमा मेरा दाजु लाबानकहाँ भागेर जा ।
Now therefore, my son, obey me and flee to Laban, my brother, in Haran.
44 तँप्रति तेरो दाजुको रिस नमरुञ्‍जेल केही दिन त्‍यहाँ उनीसँग बस्‌ र
Stay with him for a while, until your brother's fury subsides,
45 तैंले त्यसमाथि गरेको काम बिर्सन्छ । त्यसपछि म तँलाई त्‍यहाँबाट लिन पठाउनेछु । मैले एकै दिनमा तिमीहरू दुवै जनालाई किन गुमाउने?”
until your brother's anger turns away from you, and he forgets what you have done to him. Then I will send and bring you back from there. Why should I lose you both in one day?
46 रिबेकाले इसहाकलाई भनिन्, “यहाँका हित्ती स्‍त्रीहरूको कारण मेरो जीवनै हैरान भइसक्‍यो । यदि याकूबले यस देशका स्‍त्रीहरूजस्तै हित्तीका छोरीहरूमध्‍ये एउटीलाई विवाह गर्‍यो भने मेरो लागि मेरो जीवनको के फाइदा हुन्‍छ र?”
Rebekah said to Isaac, “I am weary of life because of the daughters of Heth. If Jacob takes one of the daughters of Heth as a wife, like these women, some of the daughters of the land, what good will my life be to me?”
