Mwanzo 27
1 Isaka alipozeeka na macho yake kuwa mazito kiasi cha kutokuona, alimwita Esau, mwanawe mkubwa, na akamwambia, “Mwanangu. Yeye akasema, “Mimi hapa.”
And it was for he was old Isaac and they were [too] dim eyes his for seeing and he summoned Esau - son his old and he said to him O son my and he said to him here [am] I.
2 Akamwambia, “Tazama, mimi nimezeeka. Sijui siku ya kufa kwangu.
And he said here! please I am old not I know [the] day of death my.
3 Kwahiyo chukua silaha zako, podo lako na upinde wako, na uende uwandani ukaniwindie mnyama.
And therefore take up please weapons your quiver your and bow your and go out the field and hunt! for me (wild game. *Q(K)*)
4 Uniandalie chakula kitamu, aina ile niipendayo, uniletee ili nikile na kukubariki kabla sijafa.
And prepare for me savory food just as I love and bring [it]! to me so let me eat [it] in order that it may bless you self my before I will die.
5 Basi Rebeka akasikia Isaka alipoongea na Esau mwanawe. Esau akaenda uwandani kuwinda mawindo na kuja nayo.
And Rebekah [was] listening when spoke Isaac to Esau son his and he went Esau [to] the field to hunt wild game to bring [it].
6 Rebeka akaongea na Yakobo mwanawe na kumwambia, “Tazama, nimemsikia baba yako akiongea na Esau ndugu yako. Akasema,
And Rebekah she said to Jacob son her saying here! I have heard father your speaking to Esau brother your saying.
7 'Niletee mnyama na unitengenezee chakula kitamu, ili nikile na kukubariki mbele za Yahwe kabla ya kufa kwangu.'
Bring! to me wild game and prepare for me savory food so let me eat [it] so I may bless you before Yahweh before death my.
8 Kwa hiyo sasa, mwanangu, usikilize sauti yangu kama ninavyokuagiza,
And therefore O son my listen to voice my to [that] which I [am] commanding you.
9 Nenda kundini, na uniletee wanambuzi wawili; nami nitaandaa chakula kitamu kutokana nao kwa ajili ya baba yako, kwa namna aipendayo.
Go please to the flock and fetch for me from there two kids of goats good so I may prepare them savory food for father your just as he loves.
10 Utakipeleka kwa baba yako, ili kwamba akile, na kukubariki kabla hajafa.”
And you will bring [it] to father your and he will eat [it] in order that this he may bless you before death his.
11 Yakobo akamwambia Rebeka mama yake, “Tazama, Ndugu yangu Esau ni mtu mwenye manyoya, na mimi ni mtu laini.
And he said Jacob to Rebekah mother his here! Esau brother my [is] a man hairy and I [am] a man smooth.
12 Pengine baba yangu atanigusa, nami nitaonekana kama mdanganyifu kwake. Nami nitajiletea laana badala ya baraka.”
Perhaps he will feel me father my and I will be in view his like a mocker and I will bring on myself a curse and not a blessing.
13 Mama yake akamwambia, “Mwanangu, acha laana yoyote iwe juu yangu. Wewe sikiliza sauti yangu, nenda, uniletee.”
And she said to him mother his [be] on me curse your O son my only listen to voice my and go fetch [them] for me.
14 Hivyo Yakobo alikwenda na kuchukua wanambuzi na kuwaleta kwa mama yake, na mama yake akaandaa chakula kitamu, kama alichokipenda baba yake.
And he went and he fetched [them] and he brought [them] to mother his and she prepared mother his savory food just as he loved father his.
15 Rebeka akachukua nguo nzuri za Esau, mwanawe mkubwa, alizokuwa nazo nyumbani mwake, na akamvika Yakobo, mwanawe mdogo.
And she took Rebekah [the] clothes of Esau son her old the desirableness which [were] with her in the house and she clothed Jacob son her young.
16 Akamvalisha ngozi ya mwanambuzi katika mikono yake na katika sehemu laini za shingo yake.
And [the] skins of [the] kids of the goats she clothed on hands his and on [the] smooth part of neck his.
17 Akaweka katika mikono ya Yakobo kile chakula kitamu na mkate aliokuwa ameuandaa.
And she put the savory food and the bread which she had prepared in [the] hand of Jacob son her.
18 Yakobo akaenda kwa baba yake na kumwambia, “Babangu.” Yeye akasema, “Mimi hapa; U nani wewe, mwanangu?”
And he went to father his and he said O father my and he said here [am] I who? [are] you O son my.
19 Yakobo akamwambia baba yake, “Mimi ni Esau mzaliwa wako wa kwanza; nimefanya kama ulivyoniagiza. Basi kaa na ule sehemu ya mawindo yangu, ili unibariki.”
And he said Jacob to father his I [am] Esau firstborn your I have done just as you said to me arise please sit! and eat! some of wild game my in order that may bless me self your.
20 Isaka akamwambia mwanawe, “Imekuwaje umepata kwa haraka hivyo, mwanangu?” Akasema, “Ni kwa sababu Yahwe Mungu wako ameniletea.”
And he said Isaac to son his what? this have you hastened to find [it] O son my and he said for he made happen Yahweh God your before me.
21 Isaka akamwambia Yakobo, “Njoo karibu nami, ili nikuguse, mwanangu, ili nijue kama kweli wewe ni mwanangu Esau au hapana.”
And he said Isaac to Jacob draw near! please so I may feel you O son my ¿ [are] you this son my Esau or? not.
22 Yakobo akamkaribia Isaka baba yake; na Isaka akamgusa na kusema, “Sauti ni sauti ya Yakobo, lakini mikono ni mkikono ya Esau.”
And he drew near Jacob to Isaac father his and he felt him and he said the voice [is] [the] voice of Jacob and the hands [are] [the] hands of Esau.
23 Isaka hakumtambua, kwa sababu mikono yake ilikuwa na manyoya, kama mikono ya Esau ndugu yake, hivyo Isaka akambariki.”
And not he recognized him for they were hands his like [the] hands of Esau brother his hairy and he blessed him.
24 Akasema, “Wewe kweli ni mwanangu Esau?” Naye akasema, “Ni mimi.”
And he said [are] you? this son my Esau and he said I.
25 Isaka akasema, “Kilete chakula kwangu, na nile mawindo yako, ili nikubariki.” Yakobo akakileta chakula kwake. Isaka akala, na Yakobo akamletea mvinyo, akanywa.
And he said bring [it] near! to me so let me eat some of [the] wild game of son my so that it may bless you self my and he brought [it] near to him and he ate and he brought to him wine and he drank.
26 Kisha Isaka baba yake akamwambia, “Sogea karibu nami na unibusu, mwanangu.”
And he said to him Isaac father his draw near! please and kiss! me O son my.
27 Yakobo akasogea na kumbusu, naye akanusa harufu ya nguo zake na kumbariki. Akasema, “Tazama, harufu ya mwanangu ni kama harufu ya shamba alilolibariki Yahwe.
And he drew near and he kissed him and he smelled [the] smell of clothes his and he blessed him and he said see [the] smell of son my [is] like [the] smell of a field which he has blessed it Yahweh.
28 Mungu akupe sehemu ya umande wa mbinguni, sehemu ya unono wa nchi, na wingi wa nafaka na mvinyo mpya.
And may he give to you God some of [the] dew of the heavens and some of [the] fatness of the earth and abundance of grain and new wine.
29 Watu na wakutumikie na mataifa yainame chini yako. Uwe bwana juu ya ndugu zako, na wana wa mama yako wainame chini yako. Kila anayekulaani na alaaniwe; na kila anayekubariki abarikiwe.”
May they serve you peoples (and may they bow down *Q(K)*) to you peoples be lord to brothers your so may they bow down to you [the] sons of mother your [those who] curse you [be] cursed and [those who] bless you [be] blessed.
30 Mara Isaka alipomaliza kumbariki Yakobo, na Yakobo ndo ametoka mbele ya Isaka baba yake, Esau ndugu yake akaja kutoka kuwinda.
And it was just as he had finished Isaac to bless Jacob and it was surely certainly he had gone out Jacob from with [the] face of Isaac father his and Esau brother his he came from hunting his.
31 Yeye pia akaandaa chakula kitamu na kukileta kwa baba yake. Akamwambia baba yake, “Baba, inuka na ule baadhi ya mawindo ya mwanao, ili uweze kunibariki.”
And he prepared also he savory food and he brought [it] to father his and he said to father his let him arise father my and let him eat some of [the] wild game of son his in order that may bless me self your.
32 Isaka baba yake akamwambia, “U nani wewe? Akasema, “Mimi ni mwanao, Esau, mzaliwa wako wa kwanza.”
And he said to him Isaac father his who? [are] you and he said I [am] son your firstborn your Esau.
33 Isaka akatetemeka sana na kusema, “Alikuwa nani aliyewinda mawindo nakuniletea? Nilikula chote kabla haujaja, nami nimembariki. Atabarikiwa, kwa kweli.”
And he trembled Isaac trembling great up to muchness and he said who? then [is] he who hunted wild game and he brought [it] to me and I ate some of everything before you came and I blessed him also blessed he will be.
34 Esau aliposikia maneno ya baba yake, akalia kwa kilio kikubwa na cha uchungu sana, na akamwambia baba yake, “Unibariki nami, mimi pia, babangu.”
When heard Esau [the] words of father his and he cried a cry great and bitter up to muchness and he said to father his bless me also me O father my.
35 Isaka akasema, “Ndugu yako alikuja hapa kwa hila na amechukua baraka yako.”
And he said he came brother your with deceit and he took blessing your.
36 Esau akasema, “Je hakuitwa Yakobo kwa haki? Kwa maana amenidanganya mara mbili hizi. Alichukua haki ya uzaliwa wangu wa kwanza, na tazama, sasa amechukua baraka yangu.” Na akasema, “Je haukuniachia baraka?
And he said ¿ for did someone call name his Jacob and he has supplanted me this two times birthright my he took and here! now he has taken blessing my and he said ¿ not have you reserved for me a blessing.
37 Isaka akajibu na kumwambia Esau, “Tazama, nimemfanya kuwa bwana wako, na nimempa ndugu zake kuwa watumishi wake. Na nimempa nafaka na divai. Je nikufanyie nini mwanangu?
And he answered Isaac and he said to Esau here! lord I have appointed him to you and all brothers his I have given to him to servants and grain and new wine I have sustained him and for you then what? will I do O son my.
38 Esau akamwambia babaye, “Je hauna hata baraka moja kwa ajili yangu, babangu? Nibariki nami, hata mimi pia, babangu.” Esau akalia kwa sauti.
And he said Esau to father his ¿ [does] a blessing one it [belong] to you O father my bless me also me O father my and he lifted up Esau voice his and he wept.
39 Isaka baba yake akajibu na kumwambia, “Tazama, mahali unapoishi patakuwa mbali na utajiri wa nchi, mbali na umande juu angani.
And he answered Isaac father his and he said to him there! away from [the] fatness of the earth it will be dwelling your and away from [the] dew of the heavens above.
40 Kwa upanga wako utaishi, nawe utamtumikia ndugu yako. lakini utakapoasi, utaiondoa nira yake shingoni mwako.”
And on sword your you will live and brother your you will serve and it will be just as you will be restless and you will tear off yoke his from on neck your.
41 Esau akamchukia Yakobo kwa sababu ya baraka ambayo baba yake alimpa. Esau akajisemea moyoni, “Siku za maombolezo kwa ajili ya baba yangu zinakaribia; baada ya hapo nitamwua Yakobo ndugu yangu.”
And he bore a grudge against Esau Jacob on the blessing which he had blessed him father his and he said Esau in heart his they will draw near [the] days of [the] mourning of father my and I will kill Jacob brother my.
42 Rebeka akaambiwa maneno ya Esau mwanawe mkubwa. Hivyo akatuma na kumwita Yakobo mwanawe mdogo na kumwambia, “Tazama, Esau ndugu yako anajifariji juu yako kwa kupanga kukuuwa.
And it was told to Rebekah [the] words of Esau son her old and she sent and she summoned Jacob son her young and she said to him here! Esau brother your [is] comforting himself to you by killing you.
43 Kwa hiyo sasa, mwanangu, unisikie na kukimbilia kwa Labani, ndugu yangu, huko Harani.
And therefore O son my listen to voice my and arise flee for yourself to Laban brother my Haran towards.
44 Ukae naye kitambo, mpaka hasira ya ndugu yako itakapopungua,
And you will remain with him days one until that it will turn back [the] anger of brother your.
45 hata hasira ya ndugu yako itakapokuondokea, na kusahau ulivyomtenda. Kisha nitatuma na kukurudisha kutoka pale. Kwa nini niwapoteze ninyi nyote katika siku moja?
Until turns back [the] anger of brother your from you and he will forget [that] which you did to him and I will send and I will fetch you from there why? will I be bereaved also both of you a day one.
46 Rebeka akamwambia Isaka, “Nimechoka na maisha kwa sababu ya hawa binti za Hethi. Ikiwa Yakobo atachukua mmojawapo wa binti wa Hethi kuwa mkewe, kama wanawake hawa, baadhi ya binti za nchi, maisha yatakuwa na maana gani kwangu?”
And she said Rebekah to Isaac I loathe life my because of [the] daughters of Heth if [is] taking Jacob a wife from [the] daughters of Heth like these from [the] daughters of the land why? [belongs] to me life.
