< Genesis 27 >

1 Nígbà ti Isaaki di arúgbó, ojú rẹ̀ sì ti di bàìbàì tó bẹ́ẹ̀ tí kò le ríran. Ó pe Esau àkọ́bí rẹ̀, ó sì wí fún un pé, “Ọmọ mi.” Esau sì dáhùn pé, “Èmi nìyí.”
And it came to pass, that when Isaac was old, and his eyes were dim, so that he could not see, he called Esau his eldest son, and said unto him, My son: and he said unto him, Behold, here am I.
2 Isaaki sì wí pé, “Nísinsin yìí mo di arúgbó, èmi kò sì mọ ọjọ́ tí èmi yóò kú.
And he said, Behold now, I am old, I know not the day of my death:
3 Nítorí náà, mú ohun èlò ọdẹ rẹ, apó àti ọrún, nísinsin yìí kí o sì lọ pa ẹran wá fún mi nínú igbó.
Now therefore take, I pray thee, thy weapons, thy quiver and thy bow, and go out to the field, and take me some venison;
4 Kí o sì ṣe ẹran àdídùn fún mi, irú èyí tí mo fẹ́ràn, kí o gbe wá fún mi kí n jẹ, kí n sì súre fún ọ kí n tó kú.”
And make me savoury meat, such as I love, and bring it to me, that I may eat; that my soul may bless thee before I die.
5 Ṣùgbọ́n Rebeka ń fetí léko gbọ́ nígbà tí Isaaki ń bá Esau ọmọ rẹ̀ sọ̀rọ̀. Nítorí náà, nígbà ti Esau ti ṣe ọdẹ lọ sínú igbó,
And Rebekah heard when Isaac spake to Esau his son. And Esau went to the field to hunt for venison, and to bring it.
6 Rebeka sọ fún Jakọbu ọmọ rẹ̀ pé, “Wò ó, mo gbọ́ tí baba rẹ ń wí fún Esau ẹ̀gbọ́n rẹ pé,
And Rebekah spake unto Jacob her son, saying, Behold, I heard thy father speak unto Esau thy brother, saying,
7 ‘Pa ẹran fún mi wá, kí o sì ṣe oúnjẹ àdídùn fún mi láti jẹ, kí n ba à le súre fún ọ níwájú Olúwa kí èmi tó kú.’
Bring me venison, and make me savoury meat, that I may eat, and bless thee before Yhwh before my death.
8 Nísinsin yìí ọmọ mi, gbọ́ tèmi, kí o sì ṣe ohun tí èmi yóò wí fún ọ.
Now therefore, my son, obey my voice according to that which I command thee.
9 Lọ sínú agbo ẹran, kí o sì mú ọmọ ewúrẹ́ méjì, kí ó lè ṣe oúnjẹ àdídùn fún baba rẹ, irú èyí tí ó fẹ́ràn dáradára.
Go now to the flock, and fetch me from thence two good kids of the goats; and I will make them savoury meat for thy father, such as he loveth:
10 Ìwọ yóò sì gbé e tọ baba rẹ lọ, kí òun ba à lè jẹ ẹ́, kí ó sì súre fún ọ, kí ó tó kú.”
And thou shalt bring it to thy father, that he may eat, and that he may bless thee before his death.
11 Jakọbu sì wí fún Rebeka ìyá rẹ̀ pé, “Ṣùgbọ́n Esau ẹ̀gbọ́n mi jẹ́ ènìyàn onírun lára, bẹ́ẹ̀ alára ọ̀bọ̀rọ́ sì ni èmi,
And Jacob said to Rebekah his mother, Behold, Esau my brother is a hairy man, and I am a smooth man:
12 bí baba mi bá fọwọ́ kàn mi ń kọ́? Èmi yóò jọ ẹlẹ́tàn lójú rẹ̀, dípò kí ó súre fún mi, èmi yóò sì mú ègún wá sórí ara mi.”
My father peradventure will feel me, and I shall seem to him as a deceiver; and I shall bring a curse upon me, and not a blessing.
13 Ìyá rẹ̀ wá wí fun un pé, “Ọmọ mi jẹ́ kí ègún náà wá sórí mi, sá à ṣe ohun tí mo wí, kí o sì mú wọn wá fún mi.”
And his mother said unto him, Upon me be thy curse, my son: only obey my voice, and go fetch me them.
14 Jakọbu sì ṣe ohun gbogbo tí ìyá rẹ̀ wí fun un, Rebeka sì ṣe oúnjẹ àdídùn náà, irú èyí tí Isaaki fẹ́ràn.
And he went, and fetched, and brought them to his mother: and his mother made savoury meat, such as his father loved.
15 Nígbà náà ni Rebeka mú èyí tí ó dára jù nínú aṣọ Esau ọmọ rẹ̀ àgbà tí ó wà nínú ilé Rebeka, ó sì fi wọ Jakọbu ọmọ rẹ̀ àbúrò.
And Rebekah took goodly raiment of her eldest son Esau, which were with her in the house, and put them upon Jacob her younger son:
16 Ó sì fi awọ ewúrẹ́ wọ̀n-ọn-nì bo ọwọ́ àti ibi tí ọ̀bọ̀rọ́ ọrùn.
And she put the skins of the kids of the goats upon his hands, and upon the smooth of his neck:
17 Nígbà náà ni ó gbé ẹran dídùn náà àti oúnjẹ tí ó ti sè lé Jakọbu ọmọ rẹ̀ lọ́wọ́.
And she gave the savoury meat and the bread, which she had prepared, into the hand of her son Jacob.
18 Jakọbu wọlé lọ sí ọ̀dọ̀ baba rẹ̀ ó sì wí pé, “Baba mi.” Baba rẹ sì dáhùn pé, “Èmi nìyí, ìwọ ta ni, ọmọ mi?”
And he came unto his father, and said, My father: and he said, Here am I; who art thou, my son?
19 Jakọbu sì fèsì pé, “Èmi ni Esau àkọ́bí rẹ, èmi ti ṣe gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìwọ ti sọ fún mi, jọ̀wọ́ dìde jókòó, kí o sì jẹ nínú ẹran igbó mi tí mo ti sè, kí o ba à le súre fún mi pẹ̀lú gbogbo ọkàn rẹ.”
And Jacob said unto his father, I am Esau thy firstborn; I have done according as thou badest me: arise, I pray thee, sit and eat of my venison, that thy soul may bless me.
20 Isaaki tún béèrè pé, “Ọmọ mi, báwo ni ó ṣe tètè yá ọ bẹ́ẹ̀?” Jakọbu sì tún dáhùn pé, “Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ ló fún mi pa.”
And Isaac said unto his son, How is it that thou hast found it so quickly, my son? And he said, because Yhwh thy God brought it to me.
21 Nígbà náà ni Isaaki wí fún Jakọbu pé, “Súnmọ́ mi, kí n le è fọwọ́ kàn ọ́, kí n lè mọ̀ bóyá Esau ọmọ mi ni nítòótọ́ tàbí òun kọ́.”
And Isaac said unto Jacob, Come near, I pray thee, that I may feel thee, my son, whether thou be my very son Esau or not.
22 Jakọbu sì súnmọ́ Isaaki baba rẹ̀. Isaaki sì fọwọ́ kàn án, ó sì wí pé, “Ohùn ni ohùn Jakọbu; ṣùgbọ́n ọwọ́ ni ọwọ́ Esau.”
And Jacob went near unto Isaac his father; and he felt him, and said, The voice is Jacob’s voice, but the hands are the hands of Esau.
23 Kò sì dá Jakọbu mọ̀ nítorí ọwọ́ rẹ̀ ní irun bí i ti Esau arákùnrin rẹ, nítorí náà, ó súre fún un
And he discerned him not, because his hands were hairy, as his brother Esau’s hands: so he blessed him.
24 ó sì bi í léèrè pé, “Ǹjẹ́ ìwọ ni Esau ọmọ mi ni tòótọ́?” Jakọbu sì dáhùn pé, “Èmi ni.”
And he said, Art thou my very son Esau? And he said, I am.
25 Nígbà náà ni Isaaki wí pé, “Gbé ẹran igbó náà súnmọ́ ọ̀dọ̀ mi, kí èmi kí ó jẹ ẹ́, kí èmi sì súre fún ọ láti inú ọkàn mi wá.” Jakọbu sì gbé e wá ó sì jẹ ẹ́, ó sì tún fún un ní wáìnì, ó sì mú un pẹ̀lú.
And he said, Bring it near to me, and I will eat of my son’s venison, that my soul may bless thee. And he brought it near to him, and he did eat: and he brought him wine, and he drank.
26 Nígbà náà ni Isaaki baba rẹ̀ wí fun un pé, “Súnmọ́ mi, ọmọ mi, kí o sì fẹnukò mí ní ẹnu.”
And his father Isaac said unto him, Come near now, and kiss me, my son.
27 Ó sì súnmọ́ ọn, ó sì fẹnukò ó ní ẹnu. Nígbà tí Isaaki gbọ́ òórùn aṣọ rẹ̀, ó súre fún un ó wí pé, “Wò ó òórùn ọmọ mi dàbí òórùn oko tí Olúwa ti bùkún.
And he came near, and kissed him: and he smelled the smell of his raiment, and blessed him, and said, See, the smell of my son is as the smell of a field which Yhwh hath blessed:
28 Kí Ọlọ́run kí ó fún ọ nínú ìrì ọ̀run àti nínú ọ̀rá ilẹ̀ àti ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ ọkà àti wáìnì tuntun.
Therefore God give thee of the dew of heaven, and the fatness of the earth, and plenty of grain and wine:
29 Kí àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè kí ó máa sìn ọ́, kí àwọn ènìyàn sì máa tẹríba fún ọ, máa ṣe olórí àwọn arákùnrin rẹ, kí àwọn iyèkan rẹ sì máa wólẹ̀ fún ọ Fífibú ni àwọn ẹni tó fi ọ́ bú, ìbùkún ni fún àwọn ẹni tí ó súre fún ọ.”
Let people serve thee, and nations bow down to thee: be lord over thy brethren, and let thy mother’s sons bow down to thee: cursed be every one that curseth thee, and blessed be he that blesseth thee.
30 Bí Isaaki ti súre tán tí Jakọbu ṣẹ̀ṣẹ̀ jáde kúrò ní ọ̀dọ̀ baba rẹ̀ ni Esau ti oko ọdẹ dé.
And it came to pass, as soon as Isaac had made an end of blessing Jacob, and Jacob was yet scarce gone out from the presence of Isaac his father, that Esau his brother came in from his hunting.
31 Òun pẹ̀lú ṣe ẹran dídùn, ó sì gbé e tọ baba rẹ̀ wá, ó sì wí fún un pé, “Baba mi, dìde jókòó, kí o sì jẹ nínú ẹran igbó tí mo ti ṣè, kí o sì súre fún mi.”
And he also had made savoury meat, and brought it unto his father, and said unto his father, Let my father arise, and eat of his son’s venison, that thy soul may bless me.
32 Isaaki baba rẹ̀ sì bi í wí pé, “Ìwọ ta ni?” Ó sì dáhùn pé, “Èmi Esau, àkọ́bí rẹ ni.”
And Isaac his father said unto him, Who art thou? And he said, I am thy son, thy firstborn Esau.
33 Nígbà náà ni Isaaki wárìrì gidigidi, ó sì wí pé, “Ta ni ẹni náà, tí ó ti pa ẹran igbó tí ó sì ti gbe wá fún mi, tí mo sì ti jẹ ẹ́ kí ó tó dé? Mo sì ti súre fún un, sì wò ó dájúdájú a ó sì bùkún un!”
And Isaac trembled very exceedingly, and said, Who? where is he that hath taken venison, and brought it me, and I have eaten of all before thou camest, and have blessed him? yea, and he shall be blessed.
34 Nígbà tí Esau gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ baba rẹ̀, ó ké, ó sì bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí ní sọkún kíkorò, ó sì wí fún baba rẹ̀ pé, “Baba mi súre fún èmi náà, àní fún èmi náà pẹ̀lú.”
And when Esau heard the words of his father, he cried with a great and exceeding bitter cry, and said unto his father, Bless me, even me also, O my father.
35 Ṣùgbọ́n Isaaki wí pé, “Àbúrò rẹ ti fi ẹ̀tàn wá, ó sì ti gba ìbùkún rẹ lọ.”
And he said, Thy brother came with subtilty, and hath taken away thy blessing.
36 Esau sì wí pé, “Lásán ni a pe orúkọ rẹ̀ ní Jakọbu bí? Ní ìgbà méjì yìí ni ó ti tàn mí jẹ: ní àkọ́kọ́, ó gba ogún ìbí mi, nísinsin yìí, ó tún gba ìbùkún mi!” O sì béèrè pé, “Ṣe o kò wá fi ìre kankan sílẹ̀ fun mi ni?”
And he said, Is not he rightly named Jacob? for he hath supplanted me these two times: he took away my birthright; and, behold, now he hath taken away my blessing. And he said, Hast thou not reserved a blessing for me?
37 Isaaki sì dá Esau lóhùn pé, “Mo ti fi ṣe olórí rẹ àti àwọn ìbátan rẹ ni mo fi ṣe ìránṣẹ́ fún un, àti ọkà àti wáìnì ni mo ti fi lé e lọ́wọ́ lọ́pọ̀lọ́pọ̀, kí ni ó tún kù tí ǹ bá tún fún ọ báyìí ọmọ mi?”
And Isaac answered and said unto Esau, Behold, I have made him thy lord, and all his brethren have I given to him for servants; and with grain and wine have I sustained him: and what shall I do now unto thee, my son?
38 Esau sì wí fún baba rẹ̀ pé, “Ṣe ìre kan ṣoṣo ni ìwọ ní lẹ́nu ni baba mi? Súre fún èmi náà, baba mi.” Esau sì sọkún kíkankíkan.
And Esau said unto his father, Hast thou but one blessing, my father? bless me, even me also, O my father. And Esau lifted up his voice, and wept.
39 Isaaki baba rẹ̀ sì dá a lóhùn pé, “Ibùjókòó rẹ yóò jìnnà sí ọ̀rá ilẹ̀, àti sí ibi ìrì ọ̀run láti òkè wá.
And Isaac his father answered and said unto him, Behold, thy dwelling shall be the fatness of the earth, and of the dew of heaven from above;
40 Nípa idà rẹ ni ìwọ yóò máa gbé, ìwọ yóò sì máa sin àbúrò rẹ, ṣùgbọ́n ní ìkẹyìn, nígbà tí ìwọ bá di alágbára ìwọ yóò já àjàgà rẹ̀ kúrò lọ́rùn rẹ.”
And by thy sword shalt thou live, and shalt serve thy brother; and it shall come to pass when thou shalt have the dominion, that thou shalt break his yoke from off thy neck.
41 Esau sì kórìíra Jakọbu nítorí ìre tí baba rẹ̀ sú fún un, ó sì wí fún ara rẹ̀ pé, “Baba mi sá à ti fẹ́rẹ kú, nígbà náà ni èmi ó pa Jakọbu, arákùnrin mi.”
And Esau hated Jacob because of the blessing wherewith his father blessed him: and Esau said in his heart, The days of mourning for my father are at hand; then will I slay my brother Jacob.
42 Nígbà tí Rebeka sì gbọ́ ohun tí Esau àkọ́bí rẹ̀ wí, ó sì ránṣẹ́ sí Jakọbu, ó sì wí fun un pé, “Esau ẹ̀gbọ́n rẹ ń tu ara rẹ̀ nínú pẹ̀lú èrò à ti pa ọ́.
And these words of Esau her elder son were told to Rebekah: and she sent and called Jacob her younger son, and said unto him, Behold, thy brother Esau, as touching thee, doth comfort himself, purposing to kill thee.
43 Nítorí náà ọmọ mi, ṣe ohun tí èmi yóò sọ fún ọ, sálọ sọ́dọ̀ Labani ẹ̀gbọ́n mi ní Harani.
Now therefore, my son, obey my voice; and arise, flee thou to Laban my brother to Haran;
44 Jókòó sí ibẹ̀ títí di ìgbà tí ìbínú ẹ̀gbọ́n rẹ yóò fi rọ̀.
And tarry with him a few days, until thy brother’s fury turn away;
45 Nígbà tí ẹ̀gbọ́n rẹ kò bá bínú sí ọ mọ́, tí ó sì ti gbàgbé ohun tí ìwọ ṣe sí i, èmí ó ránṣẹ́ sí ọ láti padà wá. Èéṣe tí èmi ó fi pàdánù ẹ̀yin méjèèjì ní ọjọ́ kan náà?”
Until thy brother’s anger turn away from thee, and he forget that which thou hast done to him: then I will send, and fetch thee from thence: why should I be deprived also of you both in one day?
46 Nígbà náà ni Rebeka wí fún Isaaki pé, “Ayé sì sú mi nítorí àwọn ọmọbìnrin Hiti wọ̀nyí. Bí Jakọbu bá fẹ́ ọ̀kan nínú àwọn ọmọbìnrin Hiti wọ̀nyí, ó kúkú sàn kí n má wà láààyè.”
And Rebekah said to Isaac, I am weary of my life because of the daughters of Heth: if Jacob take a wife of the daughters of Heth, such as these which are of the daughters of the land, what good shall my life do me?
