< Mwanzo 27 >
1 Isaki alipokuwa mzee na macho yake yalipokuwa yamekosa nguvu asiweze kuona tena, akamwita Esau mwanawe mkubwa, akamwambia, “Mwanangu.” Akajibu, “Mimi hapa.”
Forsothe Isaac wexe eld, and hise iyen dasewiden, and he miyte not se. And he clepide Esau, his more sone, and seide to hym, My sone! Which answerde, Y am present.
2 Isaki akasema, “Mimi sasa ni mzee na sijui siku ya kifo changu.
To whom the fadir seide, Thou seest that Y haue woxun eld, and Y knowe not the dai of my deeth.
3 Sasa basi, chukua silaha zako, podo na upinde, uende nyikani, ukawinde nyama pori kwa ajili yangu.
Take thin armeres, `arewe caas, and a bowe, and go out; and whanne thou hast take ony thing bi huntyng,
4 Uniandalie aina ya chakula kitamu nikipendacho uniletee nile, ili niweze kukubariki kabla sijafa.”
make to me a seew therof, as thou knowist that Y wole, and brynge that Y ete, and my soule blesse thee bifore that Y die.
5 Basi Rebeka alikuwa akisikiliza Isaki alipokuwa akizungumza na mwanawe Esau. Esau alipoondoka kwenda nyikani kuwinda nyama pori na kuleta,
And whanne Rebecca hadde herd this thing, and he hadde go in to the feeld to fille the comaundment of the fadir,
6 Rebeka akamwambia Yakobo mwanawe, “Tazama, nimemsikia baba yako akimwambia ndugu yako Esau,
sche seide to hir sone Jacob, Y herde thi fadir spekynge with Esau, thi brothir, and seiynge to him, Brynge thou me of thin huntyng,
7 ‘Niletee mawindo, kisha ukaniandalie chakula kitamu nile, ili niweze kukubariki mbele za Bwana kabla sijafa.’
and make thow metis, that Y ete, and that Y blesse thee bifor the Lord bifor that Y die.
8 Sasa, mwanangu, nisikilize kwa makini na ufanye yale ninayokuambia:
Now therfor, my sone, assent to my counsels,
9 Nenda sasa katika kundi ukaniletee wana-mbuzi wawili wazuri, ili niandalie chakula kitamu kwa ajili ya baba yako, kama vile anavyopenda.
and go to the floc, and brynge to me tweyne the beste kidis, that Y make metis of tho to thi fadir, whiche he etith gladli;
10 Kisha umpelekee baba yako ale, ili apate kukubariki kabla hajafa.”
and that whanne thow hast brouyt in tho metis, and he hath ete, he blesse thee bifore that he die.
11 Yakobo akamwambia Rebeka mama yake, “Lakini ndugu yangu Esau ana nywele mwilini, mimi nina ngozi nyororo.
To whom Jacob answerde, Thou knowist that Esau my brother is an heeri man, and Y am smethe; if my fadir `touchith and feelith me,
12 Itakuwaje kama baba yangu akinigusa? Itaonekana kwake kama niliyemfanyia ujanja na kuleta laana juu yangu badala ya baraka.”
Y drede lest he gesse that Y wolde scorne him, and lest he brynge in cursyng on me for blessyng.
13 Mama yake akamwambia, “Mwanangu, laana na iwe juu yangu. Fanya tu ninalokuambia, nenda ukaniletee hao wana-mbuzi.”
To whom the modir seide, My sone, this cursyng be in me; oonly here thou my vois, and go, and brynge that that Y seide.
14 Kwa hiyo alikwenda akawaleta, akampa mama yake, akaandaa chakula kitamu, kama vile alivyopenda baba yake.
He yede, and brouyte, and yaf to his modir. Sche made redi metis, as sche knewe that his fadir wolde,
15 Kisha Rebeka akachukua nguo nzuri za Esau mwanawe wa kwanza, alizokuwa nazo nyumbani, akamvika Yakobo mwanawe mdogo.
and sche clothide Jacob in ful goode clothis of Esau, whiche sche hadde at home anentis hir silf.
16 Pia akamfunika mikononi na sehemu laini ya shingo kwa ngozi za mbuzi.
And sche `compasside the hondis with litle skynnys of kiddis, and kyuerede the `nakide thingis of the necke;
17 Hatimaye akampa Yakobo hicho chakula kitamu pamoja na mkate aliouoka.
and sche yaf seew, and bitook the loouys whiche sche hadde bake.
18 Akamwendea baba yake akasema, “Baba yangu.” Akajibu, “Naam, mwanangu, wewe ni nani?”
And whanne these weren brouyt in, he seide, My fadir! And he answerde, Y here; who art thou, my sone?
19 Yakobo akamwambia baba yake, “Mimi ni Esau mzaliwa wako wa kwanza. Nimefanya kama ulivyoniambia. Tafadhali uketi, ule sehemu ya mawindo yangu ili uweze kunibariki.”
And Jacob seide, Y am Esau, thi first gendrid sone. Y haue do to thee as thou comaundist to me; rise thou, sitte, and ete of myn huntyng, that thi soule blesse me.
20 Isaki akamuuliza mwanawe. “Umepataje haraka namna hii, mwanangu?” Akajibu, “Bwana Mungu wako amenifanikisha.”
Eft Ysaac seide to his sone, My sone, hou miytist thou fynde so soone? Which answerde, It was Goddis wille, that this that Y wolde schulde come soone to me.
21 Kisha Isaki akamwambia Yakobo, “Mwanangu tafadhali sogea karibu nami ili nikupapase, nione kama hakika ndiwe Esau mwanangu, au la.”
And Isaac seide, My sone, come thou hidir, that Y touche thee, and that Y preue wher thou art my sone Esau, ethir nay.
22 Yakobo akasogea karibu na baba yake Isaki, ambaye alimpapasa na kusema, “Sauti ni ya Yakobo, bali mikono ni ya Esau.”
He neiyede to the fadir; and whanne he hadde feelid hym, Isaac seide, Sotheli the vois is the vois of Jacob, but the hondis ben the hondis of Esau.
23 Hakumtambua, kwa sababu mikono yake ilikuwa na nywele kama ya ndugu yake Esau, kwa hiyo akambariki.
And Isaac knew not Jacob, for the heery hondis expressiden the licnesse of the more sone.
24 Akamuuliza, “Hivi kweli wewe ni mwanangu Esau?” Akajibu, “Mimi ndiye.”
Therfor Isaac blesside him, and seide, Art thou my sone Esau? Jacob answerde, Y am.
25 Kisha akasema, “Mwanangu, niletee sehemu ya mawindo yako nile, ili nipate kukubariki.” Yakobo akamletea naye akala, akamletea na divai akanywa.
And Isaac seide, My sone, brynge thou to me metis of thin huntyng, that my soule blesse thee. And whanne Isaac hadde ete these metis brouyt, Jacob brouyte also wyn to Isaac, and whanne this was drunkun,
26 Kisha Isaki baba yake akamwambia, “Njoo hapa, mwanangu, unibusu.”
Isaac seide to him, My sone, come thou hidir, and yyue to me a cos.
27 Kwa hiyo akamwendea akambusu. Isaki aliposikia harufu ya nguo zake, akambariki, akasema, “Aha, harufu ya mwanangu ni kama harufu ya shamba ambalo Bwana amelibariki.
Jacob neiyede, and kisside hym; and anoon as Isaac feelide the odour of hise clothis, he blesside him, and seide, Lo! the odour of my sone as the odour of a `feeld ful which the Lord hath blessid.
28 Mungu na akupe umande kutoka mbinguni na utajiri wa duniani: wingi wa nafaka na divai mpya.
God yyue to thee of the dewe of heuene, and of the fatnesse of erthe, aboundaunce of whete, and of wyn, and of oile;
29 Mataifa na yakutumikie na mataifa yakusujudie. Uwe bwana juu ya ndugu zako, na wana wa mama yako wakusujudie. Walaaniwe wale wakulaanio, nao wale wakubarikio wabarikiwe.”
and puplis serue thee, and lynagis worschipe thee; be thou lord of thi britheren, and the sones of thi modir be bowid bifor thee; be he cursid that cursith thee, and he that blessith thee, be fillid with blessyngis.
30 Baada ya Isaki kumaliza kumbariki na baada tu ya Yakobo kuondoka kwa baba yake, ndugu yake Esau akaingia kutoka mawindoni.
Vnnethis Isaac hadde fillid the word, and whanne Jacob was gon out,
31 Naye pia akaandaa chakula kitamu akamletea baba yake. Kisha akamwambia, “Baba yangu, keti ule sehemu ya mawindo yangu, ili upate kunibariki.”
Esau cam, and brouyte in metis sodun of the huntyng to the fadir, and seide, My fadir, rise thou, and ete of the huntyng of thi sone, that thi soule blesse me.
32 Isaki baba yake akamuuliza, “Wewe ni nani?” Akajibu, “Mimi ni mwanao, mzaliwa wako wa kwanza, Esau.”
And Isaac seide, Who forsothe art thou? Which answerde, Y am Esau, thi firste gendrid sone.
33 Isaki akatetemeka kwa nguvu sana, akasema, “Alikuwa nani basi, ambaye aliwinda mawindo akaniletea? Nilikula kabla tu hujaja na nikambariki, naye hakika atabarikiwa!”
Isaac dredde bi a greet astonying; and he wondride more, than it mai be bileued, and seide, Who therfor is he which a while ago brouyte to me huntyng takun, and Y eet of alle thingis bifor that thou camest; and Y blesside him? and he schal be blessid.
34 Esau aliposikia maneno haya ya baba yake, akalia sauti kubwa na ya uchungu, na kumwambia baba yake, “Nibariki mimi, mimi pia, baba yangu!”
Whanne the wordis of the fadir weren herd, Esau rorid with a greet cry, and was astonyed, and seide, My fadir, blesse thou also me.
35 Lakini akasema, “Ndugu yako amekuja kwa udanganyifu na akachukua baraka yako.”
Which seide, Thy brother cam prudentli, and took thi blessyng.
36 Esau akasema, “Si ndiyo sababu anaitwa Yakobo? Amenidanganya mara hizi mbili: Alichukua haki yangu ya kuzaliwa na sasa amechukua baraka yangu!” Kisha akauliza, “Hukubakiza hata baraka moja kwa ajili yangu?”
And Esau addide, Justli his name is clepid Jacob, for lo! he supplauntide me another tyme; bifor he took awei `my firste gendride thingis, and now the secounde tyme he rauyschide priueli my blessyng. And eft he seide to the fadir, Wher thou hast not reserued a blessyng also to me?
37 Isaki akamjibu Esau, “Nimemfanya yeye kuwa bwana juu yako, pia nimewafanya ndugu zako wote kuwa watumishi wake, nimemtegemeza kwa nafaka na divai mpya. Sasa nitaweza kukufanyia nini, mwanangu?”
Ysaac answeride, Y haue maad him thi lord, and Y haue maad suget alle hise britheren to his seruage; Y haue stablischid him in whete, and wyn, and oile; and, my sone, what schal Y do to thee aftir these thingis?
38 Esau akamwambia baba yake, “Je, baba yangu una baraka moja tu? Unibariki mimi pia, baba yangu!” Kisha Esau akalia kwa sauti kubwa.
To whom Esau saide, Fadir, wher thou hast oneli o blessyng? Y biseche that also thou blesse me. And whanne Esau wepte with greet yellyng,
39 Baba yake Isaki akamjibu, akamwambia, “Makao yako yatakuwa mbali na utajiri wa dunia, mbali na umande wa mbinguni juu.
Isaac was stirid, and seide to hym, Thi blessyng schal be in the fatnesse of erthe, and in the dew of heuene fro aboue;
40 Utaishi kwa upanga, nawe utamtumikia ndugu yako, lakini wakati utakapokuwa umejikomboa, utatupa nira yake kutoka shingoni mwako.”
thou schalt lyue bi swerd, and thou schalt serue thi brothir, and tyme schal come whanne thou schalt shake awei, and vnbynde his yok fro thi nollis.
41 Esau akawa na kinyongo dhidi ya Yakobo kwa ajili ya baraka ambazo baba yake alikuwa amembariki. Akasema moyoni mwake, “Siku za kuomboleza kwa ajili ya baba yangu zimekaribia, ndipo nitamuua ndugu yangu Yakobo.”
Therfor Esau hatide euer Jacob for the blessyng bi which the fadir hadde blessid hym; and Esau seide in his herte, The daies of morenyng of my fadir schulen come, and Y schal sle Jacob, my brothir.
42 Rebeka alipokwisha kuambiwa yale aliyoyasema Esau mwanawe mkubwa, alimwita Yakobo mwanawe mdogo, akamwambia, “Ndugu yako Esau anajifariji kwa wazo la kukuua.
These thingis weren teld to Rebecca, and sche sente, and clepide hir sone Jacob, and seide to hym, Lo! Esau, thi brothir, manaasith to sle thee;
43 Sasa basi, mwanangu, fanya nisemalo: Kimbilia haraka kwa Labani ndugu yangu kule Harani.
now therfor, my sone, here thou my vois, and rise thou, and fle to Laban, my brother, in Aran;
44 Ukae naye kwa muda mpaka ghadhabu ya ndugu yako itulie.
and thou schalt dwelle with hym a fewe daies, til the woodnesse of thi brother reste,
45 Wakati ndugu yako atakapokuwa hana hasira nawe tena na amesahau uliyomtendea, nitakupelekea ujumbe urudi. Kwa nini niwapoteze wote wawili kwa siku moja?”
and his indignacioun ceesse, and til he foryite tho thingis whiche thou hast don ayens hym. Aftirward Y schal sende, and Y schal brynge thee fro thennus hidir. Whi schal Y be maad soneles of euer eithir sone in o dai?
46 Kisha Rebeka akamwambia Isaki, “Nimechukia kuishi kwa sababu ya hawa wanawake wa Kihiti. Ikiwa Yakobo ataoa mke miongoni mwa wanawake wa nchi hii, wanawake wa Kihiti kama hawa, sitakuwa na faida kuendelea kuishi.”
And Rebecca seide to Isaac, It anoieth me of my lijf for the douytris of Heth; if Jacob takith a wijf of the kynrede of this lond, Y nyle lyue.
