< اَلتَّكْوِينُ 27 >

وَحَدَثَ لَمَّا شَاخَ إِسْحَاقُ وَكَلَّتْ عَيْنَاهُ عَنِ ٱلنَّظَرِ، أَنَّهُ دَعَا عِيسُوَ ٱبْنَهُ ٱلْأَكْبَرَ وَقَالَ لَهُ: «يَا ٱبْنِي». فَقَالَ لَهُ: «هَأَنَذَا». ١ 1
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.”
فَقَالَ: «إِنَّنِي قَدْ شِخْتُ وَلَسْتُ أَعْرِفُ يَوْمَ وَفَاتِي. ٢ 2
He said, “See here, I am old. I do not know the day of my death.
فَٱلْآنَ خُذْ عُدَّتَكَ: جُعْبَتَكَ وَقَوْسَكَ، وَٱخْرُجْ إِلَى ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ وَتَصَيَّدْ لِي صَيْدًا، ٣ 3
Therefore take your weapons, your quiver and your bow, and go out to the field and hunt game for me.
وَٱصْنَعْ لِي أَطْعِمَةً كَمَا أُحِبُّ، وَأْتِنِي بِهَا لِآكُلَ حَتَّى تُبَارِكَكَ نَفْسِي قَبْلَ أَنْ أَمُوتَ». ٤ 4
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.”
وَكَانَتْ رِفْقَةُ سَامِعَةً إِذْ تَكَلَّمَ إِسْحَاقُ مَعَ عِيسُو ٱبْنِهِ. فَذَهَبَ عِيسُو إِلَى ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ كَيْ يَصْطَادَ صَيْدًا لِيَأْتِيَ بِهِ. ٥ 5
Now Rebekah heard it when Isaac spoke to Esau his son. Esau went to the field to hunt for game and bring it back.
وَأَمَّا رِفْقَةُ فَكَلمتْ يَعْقُوبَ ٱبْنِهَا قَائِلةً: «إِنِّي قَدْ سَمِعْتُ أَبَاكَ يُكَلِّمُ عِيسُوَ أَخَاكَ قَائِلًا: ٦ 6
Rebekah spoke to Jacob her son and said, “See here, I heard your father speak to Esau your brother. He said,
ٱئْتِنِي بِصَيْدٍ وَٱصْنَعْ لِي أَطْعِمَةً لِآكُلَ وَأُبَارِكَكَ أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ قَبْلَ وَفَاتِي. ٧ 7
'Bring me game and make me delicious food, that I may eat it and bless you in the presence of Yahweh before my death.'
فَٱلْآنَ يَا ٱبْنِي ٱسْمَعْ لِقَوْلِي فِي مَا أَنَا آمُرُكَ بِهِ: ٨ 8
Now therefore, my son, obey my voice as I command you.
اِذْهَبْ إِلَى ٱلْغَنَمِ وَخُذْ لِي مِنْ هُنَاكَ جَدْيَيْنِ جَيِّدَيْنِ مِنَ ٱلْمِعْزَى، فَأَصْنَعَهُمَا أَطْعِمَةً لِأَبِيكَ كَمَا يُحِبُّ، ٩ 9
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.
فَتُحْضِرَهَا إِلَى أَبِيكَ لِيَأْكُلَ حَتَّى يُبَارِكَكَ قَبْلَ وَفَاتِهِ». ١٠ 10
You will take it to your father, so that he may eat it, so that he may bless you before his death.”
فَقَالَ يَعْقُوبُ لِرِفْقَةَ أُمِّهِ: «هُوَذَا عِيسُو أَخِي رَجُلٌ أَشْعَرُ وَأَنَا رَجُلٌ أَمْلَسُ. ١١ 11
Jacob said to Rebekah his mother, “See, Esau my brother is a hairy man, and I am a smooth man.
رُبَّمَا يَجُسُّنِي أَبِي فَأَكُونُ فِي عَيْنَيْهِ كَمُتَهَاوِنٍ، وَأَجْلِبُ عَلَى نَفْسِي لَعْنَةً لَا بَرَكَةً». ١٢ 12
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.”
فَقَالَتْ لَهُ أُمُّهُ: «لَعْنَتُكَ عَلَيَّ يَا ٱبْنِي. اِسْمَعْ لِقَوْلِي فَقَطْ وَٱذْهَبْ خُذْ لِي». ١٣ 13
His mother said to him, “My son, let any curse fall on me. Just obey my voice, and go, bring them to me.”
فَذَهَبَ وَأَخَذَ وَأَحْضَرَ لِأُمِّهِ، فَصَنَعَتْ أُمُّهُ أَطْعِمَةً كَمَا كَانَ أَبُوهُ يُحِبُّ. ١٤ 14
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.
وَأَخَذَتْ رِفْقَةُ ثِيَابَ عِيسُو ٱبْنِهَا ٱلْأَكْبَرِ ٱلْفَاخِرَةَ ٱلَّتِي كَانَتْ عِنْدَهَا فِي ٱلْبَيْتِ وَأَلْبَسَتْ يَعْقُوبَ ٱبْنَهَا ٱلْأَصْغَرَ، ١٥ 15
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.
وَأَلْبَسَتْ يَدَيْهِ وَمَلَاسَةَ عُنُقِهِ جُلُودَ جَدْيَيِ ٱلْمِعْزَى. ١٦ 16
She put the skins of the young goats on his hands and on the smooth part of his neck.
وَأَعْطَتِ ٱلْأَطْعِمَةَ وَٱلْخُبْزَ ٱلَّتِي صَنَعَتْ فِي يَدِ يَعْقُوبَ ٱبْنِهَا. ١٧ 17
She put the delicious food and the bread that she had prepared into the hand of her son Jacob.
فَدَخَلَ إِلَى أَبِيهِ وَقَالَ: «يَا أَبِي». فَقَالَ: «هَأَنَذَا. مَنْ أَنْتَ يَا ٱبْنِي؟». ١٨ 18
Jacob went to his father and said, “My father.” He said, “Here I am; who are you, my son?”
فَقَالَ يَعْقُوبُ لِأَبِيهِ: «أَنَا عِيسُو بِكْرُكَ. قَدْ فَعَلْتُ كَمَا كَلَّمْتَنِي. قُمِ ٱجْلِسْ وَكُلْ مِنْ صَيْدِي لِكَيْ تُبَارِكَنِي نَفْسُكَ». ١٩ 19
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.”
فَقَالَ إِسْحَاقُ لِٱبْنِهِ: «مَا هَذَا ٱلَّذِي أَسْرَعْتَ لِتَجِدَ يَا ٱبْنِي؟». فَقَالَ: «إِنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَكَ قَدْ يَسَّرَ لِي». ٢٠ 20
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.”
فَقَالَ إِسْحَاقُ لِيَعْقُوبَ: «تَقَدَّمْ لِأَجُسَّكَ يَا ٱبْنِي. أَأَنْتَ هُوَ ٱبْنِي عِيسُو أَمْ لَا؟». ٢١ 21
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.”
فَتَقَدَّمَ يَعْقُوبُ إِلَى إِسْحَاقَ أَبِيهِ، فَجَسَّهُ وَقَالَ: «ٱلصَّوْتُ صَوْتُ يَعْقُوبَ، وَلَكِنَّ ٱلْيَدَيْنِ يَدَا عِيسُو». ٢٢ 22
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.”
وَلَمْ يَعْرِفْهُ لِأَنَّ يَدَيْهِ كَانَتَا مُشْعِرَتَيْنِ كَيَدَيْ عِيسُو أَخِيهِ، فَبَارَكَهُ. ٢٣ 23
Isaac did not recognize him, because his hands were hairy, like his brother Esau's hands, so Isaac blessed him.
وَقَالَ: «هَلْ أَنْتَ هُوَ ٱبْنِي عِيسُو؟». فَقَالَ: «أَنَا هُوَ». ٢٤ 24
He said, “Are you really my son Esau?” He replied, “I am.”
فَقَالَ: «قَدِّمْ لِي لِآكُلَ مِنْ صَيْدِ ٱبْنِي حَتَّى تُبَارِكَكَ نَفْسِي». فَقَدَّمَ لَهُ فَأَكَلَ، وَأَحْضَرَ لَهُ خَمْرًا فَشَرِبَ. ٢٥ 25
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.
فَقَالَ لَهُ إِسْحَاقُ أَبُوهُ: «تَقَدَّمْ وَقَبِّلْنِي يَا ٱبْنِي». ٢٦ 26
Then his father Isaac said to him, “Come near now and kiss me, my son.”
فَتَقَدَّمَ وَقَبَّلَهُ، فَشَمَّ رَائِحَةَ ثِيَابِهِ وَبَارَكَهُ، وَقَالَ: «ٱنْظُرْ! رَائِحَةُ ٱبْنِي كَرَائِحَةِ حَقْلٍ قَدْ بَارَكَهُ ٱلرَّبُّ. ٢٧ 27
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.
فَلْيُعْطِكَ ٱللهُ مِنْ نَدَى ٱلسَّمَاءِ وَمِنْ دَسَمِ ٱلْأَرْضِ. وَكَثْرَةَ حِنْطَةٍ وَخَمْرٍ. ٢٨ 28
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.
لِيُسْتَعْبَدْ لَكَ شُعُوبٌ، وَتَسْجُدْ لَكَ قَبَائِلُ. كُنْ سَيِّدًا لِإِخْوَتِكَ، وَلْيَسْجُدْ لَكَ بَنُو أُمِّكَ. لِيَكُنْ لَاعِنُوكَ مَلْعُونِينَ، وَمُبَارِكُوكَ مُبَارَكِينَ». ٢٩ 29
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.”
وَحَدَثَ عِنْدَمَا فَرَغَ إِسْحَاقُ مِنْ بَرَكَةِ يَعْقُوبَ، وَيَعْقُوبُ قَدْ خَرَجَ مِنْ لَدُنْ إِسْحَاقَ أَبِيهِ، أَنَّ عِيسُوَ أَخَاهُ أَتَى مِنْ صَيْدِهِ، ٣٠ 30
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.
فَصَنَعَ هُوَ أَيْضًا أَطْعِمَةً وَدَخَلَ بِهَا إِلَى أَبِيهِ وَقَالَ لِأَبِيهِ: «لِيَقُمْ أَبِي وَيَأْكُلْ مِنْ صَيْدِ ٱبْنِهِ حَتَّى تُبَارِكَنِي نَفْسُكَ». ٣١ 31
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.”
فَقَالَ لَهُ إِسْحَاقُ أَبُوهُ: «مَنْ أَنْتَ؟» فَقَالَ: «أَنَا ٱبْنُكَ بِكْرُكَ عِيسُو». ٣٢ 32
Isaac his father said to him, “Who are you?” He said, “I am your son, your firstborn, Esau.”
فَٱرْتَعَدَ إِسْحَاقُ ٱرْتِعَادًا عَظِيمًا جِدًّا وَقَالَ: «فَمَنْ هُوَ ٱلَّذِي ٱصْطَادَ صَيْدًا وَأَتَى بِهِ إِلَيَّ فَأَكَلْتُ مِنَ ٱلْكُلِّ قَبْلَ أَنْ تَجِيءَ، وَبَارَكْتُهُ؟ نَعَمْ، وَيَكُونُ مُبَارَكًا». ٣٣ 33
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.”
فَعِنْدَمَا سَمِعَ عِيسُو كَلَامَ أَبِيهِ صَرَخَ صَرْخَةً عَظِيمَةً وَمُرَّةً جِدًّا، وَقَالَ لِأَبِيهِ: «بَارِكْنِي أَنَا أَيْضًا يَا أَبِي». ٣٤ 34
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.”
فَقَالَ: «قَدْ جَاءَ أَخُوكَ بِمَكْرٍ وَأَخَذَ بَرَكَتَكَ». ٣٥ 35
Isaac said, “Your brother came here deceitfully and has taken away your blessing.”
فَقَالَ: «أَلَا إِنَّ ٱسْمَهُ دُعِيَ يَعْقُوبَ، فَقَدْ تَعَقَّبَنِي ٱلْآنَ مَرَّتَيْنِ! أَخَذَ بَكُورِيَّتِي، وَهُوَذَا ٱلْآنَ قَدْ أَخَذَ بَرَكَتِي». ثُمَّ قَالَ: «أَمَا أَبْقَيْتَ لِي بَرَكَةً؟». ٣٦ 36
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?”
فَأَجَابَ إِسْحَاقُ وَقَالَ لِعِيسُو: «إِنِّي قَدْ جَعَلْتُهُ سَيِّدًا لَكَ، وَدَفَعْتُ إِلَيْهِ جَمِيعَ إِخْوَتِهِ عَبِيدًا، وَعَضَدْتُهُ بِحِنْطَةٍ وَخَمْرٍ. فَمَاذَا أَصْنَعُ إِلَيْكَ يَا ٱبْنِي؟» ٣٧ 37
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?”
فَقَالَ عِيسُو لِأَبِيهِ: «أَلَكَ بَرَكَةٌ وَاحِدَةٌ فَقَطْ يَا أَبِي؟ بَارِكْنِي أَنَا أَيْضًا يَا أَبِي». وَرَفَعَ عِيسُو صَوْتَهُ وَبَكَى. ٣٨ 38
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.
فَأَجَابَ إِسْحَاقُ أَبُوهُ وَقَالَ لَهُ: «هُوَذَا بِلَا دَسَمِ ٱلْأَرْضِ يَكُونُ مَسْكَنُكَ، وَبِلَا نَدَى ٱلسَّمَاءِ مِنْ فَوْقُ. ٣٩ 39
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.
وَبِسَيْفِكَ تَعِيشُ، وَلِأَخِيكَ تُسْتَعْبَدُ، وَلَكِنْ يَكُونُ حِينَمَا تَجْمَحُ أَنَّكَ تُكَسِّرُ نِيرَهُ عَنْ عُنُقِكَ». ٤٠ 40
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.”
فَحَقَدَ عِيسُو عَلَى يَعْقُوبَ مِنْ أَجْلِ ٱلْبَرَكَةِ ٱلَّتِي بَارَكَهُ بِهَا أَبُوهُ. وَقَالَ عِيسُو فِي قَلْبِهِ: «قَرُبَتْ أَيَّامُ مَنَاحَةِ أَبِي، فَأَقْتُلُ يَعْقُوبَ أَخِي». ٤١ 41
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.”
فَأُخْبِرَتْ رِفْقَةُ بِكَلَامِ عِيسُوَ ٱبْنِهَا ٱلْأَكْبَرِ، فَأَرْسَلَتْ وَدَعَتْ يَعْقُوبَ ٱبْنَهَا ٱلْأَصْغَرَ وَقَالَتْ لَهُ: «هُوَذَا عِيسُو أَخُوكَ مُتَسَلٍّ مِنْ جِهَتِكَ بِأَنَّهُ يَقْتُلُكَ. ٤٢ 42
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.
فَٱلْآنَ يَا ٱبْنِي ٱسْمَعْ لِقَوْلِي، وَقُمِ ٱهْرُبْ إِلَى أَخِي لَابَانَ إِلَى حَارَانَ، ٤٣ 43
Now therefore, my son, obey me and flee to Laban, my brother, in Haran.
وَأَقِمْ عِنْدَهُ أَيَّامًا قَلِيلَةً حَتَّى يَرْتَدَّ سُخْطُ أَخِيكَ. ٤٤ 44
Stay with him for a while, until your brother's fury subsides,
حَتَّى يَرْتَدَّ غَضَبُ أَخِيكَ عَنْكَ، وَيَنْسَى مَا صَنَعْتَ بِهِ. ثُمَّ أُرْسِلُ فَآخُذُكَ مِنْ هُنَاكَ. لِمَاذَا أُعْدَمُ ٱثْنَيْكُمَا فِي يَوْمٍ وَاحِدٍ؟». ٤٥ 45
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?
وَقَالَتْ رِفْقَةُ لِإِسْحَاقَ: «مَلِلْتُ حَيَاتِي مِنْ أَجْلِ بَنَاتِ حِثَّ. إِنْ كَانَ يَعْقُوبُ يَأْخُذُ زَوْجَةً مِنْ بَنَاتِ حِثَّ مِثْلَ هَؤُلَاءِ مِنْ بَنَاتِ ٱلْأَرْضِ، فَلِمَاذَا لِي حَيَاةٌ؟». ٤٦ 46
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?”
