< Genesis 27 >

1 In pacl se inge Isaac el matuoh ac mutawauk in sulonginla. El sapla solalma Esau, wen se ma matu natul, ac fahk nu sel, “Wen nutik!” Esau el topuk, “Nga inge.”
It happened, that when Isaac was old, and his eyesight was failing so that he could not see, he called Esau his elder son, and said to him, "My son?" He said to him, "Here I am."
2 Isaac el fahk, “Kom liye lah nga matuoh ac apkuran in misa.
He said, "Look, I am old now. I do not know the day of my death.
3 Us mwe pisr nutum an ac sruokma soko kosro inima an nak.
Now therefore, please take your weapons, your quiver and your bow, and go out to the field, and hunt down a wild animal for me.
4 Orauk kain in mongo yuyu se ma nga lungsena kang ah, ac use nu yuruk. Nga ac mongo tari, na nga fah akinsewowoyekomla meet liki nga misa.”
Make me the tasty food that I love and bring it to me to eat, so that I may bless you before I die."
5 Ke pacl se Isaac el kaskas nu sel Esau inge, Rebecca el lohng na. Ouinge ke Esau el illa som in sruh kosro,
Rebekah heard when Isaac spoke to Esau his son. And Esau went out to the field to hunt for a wild animal and bring it back to his father.
6 Rebecca el fahk nu sel Jacob, “Nga lohng lah ingena papa tomom fahk nu sel Esau ange:
And Rebekah spoke to Jacob her son, saying, "Look, I heard your father speak to Esau your brother, saying,
7 ‘Use soko kosro inima an ac akmolyela nak. Tukun nga ac mongo tari, na nga ac akinsewowoye kom ye mutun LEUM GOD meet liki nga misa.’”
'Bring me a wild animal and prepare for me some tasty food, that I may eat it and bless you in my presence before my death.'
8 Rebecca el tafwela ac fahk, “Wen nutik, porongo akwoye ac oru ma nga fahk uh.
Now therefore, my son, obey my voice according to that which I command you.
9 Fahla nu ke un kosro uh, ac srela lukwa nani fusr na fact an. Use ngan tuh akmolyela ac orala kain mongo se ma papa tomom el arulana lungse yohk ah.
Go now to the flock, and get me from there two choice young goats. I will prepare them in a tasty way for your father, the way he likes it.
10 Kom ku in usla nu yorol elan kang, elan mau akinsewowoyekomla meet liki el misa.”
You shall bring it to your father, that he may eat, so that he may bless you before his death."
11 Tusruktu Jacob el fahk nu sin nina kial, “Kom etu na lah manol Esau unacna, a monuk fwel.
Jacob said to Rebekah his mother, "Look, Esau my brother is a hairy man, and I am a smooth man.
12 Papa el ac tuh kahl monuk ac konauk lah nga kiapwel. Ac fin ange, ac tia akinsewowoyeyuk nga, a el ac selngaiyuwi.”
What if my father touches me? I will seem to him as a deceiver, and I would bring a curse on myself, and not a blessing."
13 Nina kial ah fahk, “Wen nutik, lela kutena selnga nu sum an in oan fuk. Oru na ma nga fahk uh. Fahla use nani an.”
His mother said to him, "Let your curse be on me, my son. Only obey my voice, and go get them for me."
14 Ouinge el som sruokya nani uh, ac use nu yurin nina kial, ac el orala kain mongo se ma papa sac arulana lungse ah.
He went, and got them, and brought them to his mother. His mother prepared some tasty food, just the way his father liked it.
15 Na Rebecca el srukak nuknuk se ma wo emeet lal Esau su oan yorol in lohm uh, ac sang nokmulang Jacob.
Rebekah took the good clothes of Esau, her elder son, which were with her in the house, and put them on Jacob, her younger son.
16 El sang kulun nani uh nu fin paol Jacob, oayapa nu fin acn ma tia unacna ke kawal.
She put the skins of the young goats on his hands, and on the smooth of his neck.
17 Na el sang mwe mongo yuyu sac, ac bread ma el munanla nu sel.
She handed the tasty food and the bread which she had prepared to her son Jacob.
18 Na Jacob el som nu yurin papa tumal ah, ac fahk, “Papa!” El topuk, “Nga inge. Su kac sumtal ingan?”
He came to his father, and said, "My father?" He said, "Here I am. Who are you, my son?"
19 Jacob el fahk, “Nga Esau, wen matu nutum. Ma kom sap ngan orala nom ah pa inge. Tukakek mongoi, kom in tari akinsewowoyeyula.”
Jacob said to his father, "I am Esau your firstborn. I have done what you asked me to do. Please sit up and eat what I hunted so that you can bless me."
20 Isaac el fahk nu sin wen natul, “Ku kom oru fuka tuh kom arulana sa konauk?” Jacob el fahk, LEUM GOD lom El kasreyu konauk.”
Isaac said to his son, "How is it that you have found it so quickly, my son?" He said, "Because your God gave me success."
21 Isaac el fahk nu sel Jacob, “Kaluku ngan kahlkomi. Pwayena lah kom pa Esau?”
Isaac said to Jacob, "Please come near, that I may feel you, my son, whether you are really my son Esau or not."
22 Jacob el kalukyang nu yurin papa tumal ah, na Isaac el kahlilya ac fahk, “Pusrem oana pusracl Jacob, a poum paol Esau.”
Jacob went near to Isaac his father. He felt him, and said, "The voice is Jacob's voice, but the hands are the hands of Esau."
23 El tiana akilenul Jacob, mweyen paol oana paol Esau. El akola elan akinsewowoyal,
He did not recognize him, because his hands were hairy like those of his brother Esau. So he blessed him.
24 na el sifilpa siyuk, “Ku pwayena kom pa Esau?” Ac el topuk, “Aok, pwaye.”
He said, "Are you really my son Esau?" He said, "I am."
25 Isaac el fahk, “Kolma mongo an nu yuruk ngan kang. Nga ac mongo tari, na nga fah akinsewowoyekomla.” Jacob el kolang nu yorol, ac el oayapa sang wain nimal.
He said, "Bring it near to me, and I will eat of what my son caught so that I can bless you." He brought it near to him, and he ate. He brought him wine, and he drank.
26 Na papa tumal ah fahk nu sel, “Kaluku, wen nutik, ac ngokya mutuk.”
His father Isaac said to him, "Come near now, and kiss me, my son."
27 Ac ke el kalukyang in ngok mutal, Isaac el ngokak nuknuk lal, ouinge el akinsewowoyalla. Ac el fahk, “Foulin wen nutik uh loslos oana foulin ima ma LEUM GOD El akinsewowoye.
He came near, and kissed him. He smelled the scent of his clothing, and blessed him, and said, "Look, the scent of my son is as the scent of a field which God has blessed.
28 God Elan asot nu sum aunfong inkusrao me, ac akkasrupye fohkon acn in ima lom! Ac lela Elan akpusye wheat ac wain lom!
God give you of the dew of the sky, of the fatness of the earth, and plenty of grain and new wine.
29 Mutunfacl puspis in kulansap nu sum, ac mwet uh in faksufi ye motom. Lela kom in leum fin sou lom nukewa, ac fwilin tulik nutin nina kiom in akfulatye kom. Lela elos su selngawi kom in selngawiyuk, ac elos su akinsewowoye kom in akinsewowoyeyuk.”
Let peoples serve you, and nations bow down to you. Be lord over your brothers. Let your mother's sons bow down to you. Cursed be everyone who curses you. Blessed be everyone who blesses you."
30 Isaac el akinsewowoyela Jacob tari, na Jacob el tuyak som. Tia paht na Esau, tamulel lal, el foloko liki sruh kosro lal.
It happened, as soon as Isaac had finished blessing Jacob, and Jacob had just left the presence of Isaac his father, that Esau his brother came in from his hunting.
31 El oayapa akmolyela mwe mongo na yuyu ac usla nu yurin papa tumal. Ac el fahk, “Papa, tukakek kang kutu ikwen kosro nga us tuku nom inge, kom in tari akinsewowoyeyula.”
He also made some tasty food, and brought it to his father. He said to his father, "Let my father get up and eat of what his son caught, so that you may bless me."
32 Ac Isaac el siyuk, “Ku su kom an?” Ac Esau el fahk, “Nga Esau, wounse mukul nutum.”
Isaac his father said to him, "Who are you?" He said, "I am your son, your firstborn, Esau."
33 Manol Isaac nufon rarrarak, ac el siyuk, “Fin angan, ac su sruhk uniya kosro soko use nak ah? Nga mongo tufahna tari na pa kom utyak. Nga sang nufon mwe insewowo luk nu sel, ac inge ac ma na lal nwe tok.”
Isaac trembled violently, and said, "Who was it then that hunted an animal and brought it to me, and I ate it all before you came, and have blessed him? Yes, he will be blessed."
34 Ke Esau el lohng ma inge, el liksreni tung ac wowoyak, ac fahk, “Papa, akinsewowoyeyu pac!”
When Esau heard the words of his father, he cried out loudly and bitterly, and said to his father, "Bless me, even me also, my father."
35 Isaac el fahk, “Tamulel lom el tuku ac kiapweyula. El eisla tari mwe insewowo lom.”
He said, "Your brother came with deceit, and has taken away your blessing."
36 Esau el fahk, “Pacl luola el aklalfonyeyu. Fal in pangpang inel Jacob. El eisla wal lun wounse luk, ac inge el eisla pac mwe insewowo luk. Ya wangin na pwaye mwe insewowo lula kom filiya luk?”
He said, "Isn't he rightly named Jacob? For he has taken what should have been mine these two times. He took away my birthright. Look, now he has taken away my blessing." He said, "Haven't you reserved a blessing for me?"
37 Isaac el topuk, “Nga orala tari elan leum fom, ac tuh mwet wial nukewa fah mwet kulansap lal. Nga sang nu sel wheat ac wain. Inge, wen nutik, wangin ma nga ku in oru nu sum!”
Isaac answered Esau, "Look, I have made him your lord, and I have made all of his brothers his servants. And I have sustained him with grain and new wine. What then can I do for you, my son?"
38 Esau el sifil pacna kwafe nu sin papa tumal ah, ac fahk, “Ya mwe insewowo sefanna lom, papa? Akinsewowoyeyu pac!” Na el sifilpa tung.
Esau said to his father, "Have you but one blessing, my father? Bless me, even me also, my father." Esau lifted up his voice, and wept.
39 Na Isaac el fahk nu sel, “Wangin aunfong nu sum inkusrao me, Wangin acn wo ke ima uh lom.
Isaac his father answered him, "Look, of the fatness of the earth will be your dwelling, and of the dew of the sky from above.
40 Cutlass nutum pa ac sot enenu lom, Ac kom fah kulansupu tamulel lom. Tusruktu kom fin tuyak lainul, Kom ac fah pisrla liki ye nununku lal.”
By your sword will you live, and you will serve your brother. It will happen, when you will break loose, that you shall shake his yoke from off your neck."
41 Esau el arulana srungalla Jacob, mweyen papa tumal ah tuh sang mwe insewowo ah nu sel. Ac el nunku sel sifacna, “Akuranna sun pacl in eoksra ke misa lal papa. Fin safla, na nga ac unilya Jacob.”
Esau hated Jacob because of the blessing with which his father blessed him. Esau said in his heart, "The days of mourning for my father are at hand. Then I will kill my brother Jacob."
42 Tusruktu ke Rebecca el lohng ke akoo lal Esau ah, el sapla solalma Jacob ac fahk nu sel, “Esau tamulel lom, el akoo in foloksak nu sum ac unikomi.
The words of Esau, her elder son, were told to Rebekah. She sent and called Jacob, her younger son, and said to him, "Look, your brother Esau comforts himself about you by planning to kill you.
43 Wen nutik, inge kom oru ma nga fahk uh. Fahla ingena nwe yorol Laban tamulel luk in acn Haran,
Now therefore, my son, obey my voice. Arise, flee to Laban, my brother, in Haran.
44 ac muta yorol nwe ke na kasrkusrak lun tamulel lom ohula
Stay with him a few days, until your brother's fury turns away;
45 ac el mulkunla ma kom oru nu sel inge. Tok nga ac fah supwaot sie mwet in folokinkomme. Mwe mea wen luo nutik in tukenina wanginla ke len sefanna?”
until your brother's anger against you subsides, and he forgets what you have done to him. Then I will send for you and get you from there. Why should I lose both of you in one day?"
46 Rebecca el fahk nu sel Isaac, “Nga keokla sin mutan Hit kial Esau inge. Jacob el fin payukyak pac sin sie mutan Hit, ac mansis pacna ngan tari misa.”
Rebekah said to Isaac, "I loathe my life because of the daughters of Heth. If Jacob takes a wife from the daughters of Heth, like these, from the daughters of the land, what good is my life?"
