BSB
BSB:
When Isaac was old and his eyes were so weak that he could no longer see, he called his older son Esau and said to him, “My son.” “Here I am,” Esau replied.
2
MKW
Isaaki tubaka: «Nge mosi ke na kutala ti mu me kuma kiboba, mpe mu zaba ve kilumbu yina mu ke kufwa.
BSB
BSB:
“Look,” said Isaac, “I am now old, and I do not know the day of my death.
3
MKW
Mu zola ti, malu-malu yayi, nge baka bisalulu ya nge ya mbingu: kinatunu ya nge ya madyonga na munani ya nge. Nge kwenda na mfinda, nge kwenda kufwa kibulu samu na munu.
BSB
BSB:
Take your weapons—your quiver and bow—and go out into the field to hunt some game for me.
4
MKW
Nge kwiza lambila munu madya ya kitoko yina mu ke zolaka. Nge natina munu yawu, mu kudya yawu, samu ti mu sakumuna nge ntete mu kufwa.»
BSB
BSB:
Then prepare a tasty dish that I love and bring it to me to eat, so that I may bless you before I die.”
5
MKW
Ntangu Isaaki vwandaka zonza na mwana ya yandi Esawu, Lebeka kuwaka mambu nyonso. Esawu kwendaka na mfinda, samu na kufwa kibulu mpe kunata yawu.
BSB
BSB:
Now Rebekah was listening to what Isaac told his son Esau. So when Esau went into the field to hunt game and bring it back,
6
MKW
Lebeka tubaka na mwana ya yandi Yakobi: «Mu me kuwa mutindu tata ya nge me zabisa na mpangi ya nge Esawu:
BSB
BSB:
Rebekah said to her son Jacob, “Behold, I overheard your father saying to your brother Esau,
7
MKW
“Natina munu kibulu mpe lambila munu madya ya kitoko. Mu ke kudya yawu mpe mu ke sakumuna nge, na ntadisi ya Yave ntete mu kufwa.”
BSB
BSB:
‘Bring me some game and prepare me a tasty dish to eat, so that I may bless you in the presence of the LORD before I die.’
8
MKW
Na yina, nge mwana ya munu, kuwa munu, mpe sala mutindu mu ke tumisa nge.
BSB
BSB:
Now, my son, listen to my voice and do exactly as I tell you.
9
MKW
Kwenda bakila munu bana zole ya bankombo ya kitoko na kati ya mpaka. Mu ke lambila tata ya nge madya ya kitoko yina yandi ke zolaka.
BSB
BSB:
Go out to the flock and bring me two choice young goats, so that I can make them into a tasty dish for your father—the kind he loves.
10
MKW
Nge ke natina tata ya nge yawu. Yandi ke kudya yawu, samu ti yandi sakumuna nge ntete yandi kufwa.»
BSB
BSB:
Then take it to your father to eat, so that he may bless you before he dies.”
11
MKW
Yakobi tubaka na mama ya yandi Lebeka: «Nge zaba ti mpangi ya munu Esawu ke na miika mingi na nzutu, kasi munu, mu ke ve na yawu.
BSB
BSB:
Jacob answered his mother Rebekah, “Look, my brother Esau is a hairy man, but I am smooth-skinned.
12
MKW
Kuzaba ve kana tata ke simba munu na nzutu, yandi ke tala ti mu ke na kuseka yandi. Na yina, mu ke kuzwa nsiingulu kasi lusakumunu ve.»
BSB
BSB:
What if my father touches me? Then I would be revealed to him as a deceiver, and I would bring upon myself a curse rather than a blessing.”
13
MKW
Mama ya yandi tubaka: «Mwana ya munu, bika ti nsiingulu yina kubwa na munu. Kasi kuwa kaka mambu yina mu ke na kuzabisa nge. Kwenda bakila munu bana zole ya bankombo.»
BSB
BSB:
His mother replied, “Your curse be on me, my son. Just obey my voice and go get them for me.”
14
MKW
Yakobi kwendaka baka bana yango ya bankombo mpe yandi nataka yawu na sika ya mama ya yandi. Mama lambaka madya ya kitoko yina Isaaki vwandaka zola.
BSB
BSB:
So Jacob went and got two goats and brought them to his mother, who made the tasty food his father loved.
15
MKW
Na manima, Lebeka bakaka binkuti ya mwana ya yandi ya ntete Esawu. Yandi soolaka na yinzo, binkuti yina lutilaka kitoko. Yandi lwatisaka yawu mwana ya yandi Yakobi, leki ya Esawu.
BSB
BSB:
And Rebekah took the finest clothes in the house that belonged to her older son Esau, and she put them on her younger son Jacob.
16
MKW
Yandi kangaka Yakobi mpusu ya mwana ya nkombo na maboko mpe na laka, bisika yina vwandaka ve na miika.
BSB
BSB:
She also put the skins of the young goats on his hands and on the smooth part of his neck.
17
MKW
Lebeka pesaka mwana ya yandi Yakobi madya ya kitoko na mampa yina yandi lambaka.
BSB
BSB:
Then she handed her son Jacob the tasty food and bread she had made.
18
MKW
Yakobi kwendaka na sika ya tata ya yandi mpe yandi tubaka: «Tata!» Tata vutulaka: «Ee mwana ya munu! Nge ni nani?»
BSB
BSB:
So Jacob went to his father and said, “My father.” “Here I am!” he answered. “Which one are you, my son?”
19
MKW
Yakobi tubaka na tata ya yandi: «Ni munu Esawu, mwana ya nge ya ntete. Mu me sala mutindu nge tumisaka munu. Mulemvo ya nge, vumbuka, vwanda nge kudya kibulu yina mu me kufwa, samu ti nge sakumuna munu.»
BSB
BSB:
Jacob said to his father, “I am Esau, your firstborn. I have done as you told me. Please sit up and eat some of my game, so that you may bless me.”
20
MKW
Isaaki yufulaka mwana ya yandi: «Wapi mutindu nge me sala na kuzwa yawu malu-malu yayi?» Yakobi vutulaka: «Yave, Nzambi ya nge me tudila munu yawu na nzila.»
BSB
BSB:
But Isaac asked his son, “How did you ever find it so quickly, my son?” “Because the LORD your God brought it to me,” he replied.
21
MKW
Na yina, Isaaki tubaka na Yakobi: «Mwana ya munu, belama awa mu simba nge, samu ti mu zaba kana ni nge mwana ya munu Esawu to ve.»
BSB
BSB:
Then Isaac said to Jacob, “Please come closer so I can touch you, my son. Are you really my son Esau, or not?”
22
MKW
Yakobi belamaka na tata ya yandi Isaaki yina simbaka yandi mpe yandi tubaka: «Ndinga yayi mu ke na kuwa kele ya Yakobi, kasi maboko kele ya Esawu!»
BSB
BSB:
So Jacob came close to his father Isaac, who touched him and said, “The voice is the voice of Jacob, but the hands are the hands of Esau.”
23
MKW
Isaaki zabaka ve ti ya vwandaka Yakobi, samu ti maboko ya Yakobi vwandaka na miika mingi mutindu maboko ya mpangi ya yandi Esawu. Mpe Isaaki sakumunaka Yakobi.
BSB
BSB:
Isaac did not recognize him, because his hands were hairy like those of his brother Esau; so he blessed him.
24
MKW
Isaaki yufulaka: «Ya tsyelika yayi ni nge mwana ya munu Esawu?» Yakobi vutulaka: «Ee, ni munu.»
BSB
BSB:
Again he asked, “Are you really my son Esau?” And he replied, “I am.”
25
MKW
Isaaki tubaka: «Sadila munu madya, mu kudya kibulu yina mwana ya munu me kuzwa, samu ti mu sakumuna nge. Yakobi pesaka tata ya yandi madya mpe Isaaki kudyaka. Yandi pesaka mpe yandi vinu, Isaaki kunwaka.»
BSB
BSB:
“Serve me,” said Isaac, “and let me eat some of my son’s game, so that I may bless you.” Jacob brought it to him, and he ate; then he brought him wine, and he drank.
26
MKW
Tata ya yandi Isaaki tubaka na yandi: «Mwana ya munu, belama awa mpe nge fiba munu.»
BSB
BSB:
Then his father Isaac said to him, “Please come near and kiss me, my son.”
27
MKW
Yakobi belamaka mpe fibaka tata ya yandi Isaaki. Isaaki kuwaka nsunga ya binkuti ya yandi mpe Isaaki sakumunaka yandi na kutuba: «Ya tsyelika, nsunga ya mwana ya munu kele mutindu nsunga ya bilanga yina Yave me sakumuna.
BSB
BSB:
So he came near and kissed him. When Isaac smelled his clothing, he blessed him and said: “Ah, the smell of my son is like the smell of a field that the LORD has blessed.
28
MKW
«“Bika ti Nzambi kupesa nge kinoko ya mazulu, ntoto kubuta bambuma mingi, bambuma mingi ya faline na vinu ya malu-malu.
BSB
BSB:
May God give to you the dew of heaven and the richness of the earth—an abundance of grain and new wine.
29
MKW
Bika ti makanda ya bantu kusadila nge, bantu ya bayinsi ya nkaka kufukimina nge! Vwanda mfumu ya bampangi ya nge! Bika ti bana ya mama ya nge kufukimina nge! Bika ti muntu yina ke siinga nge, yandi kuzwa nsiingulu. Bika ti muntu yina ke sakumuna nge, yandi kuzwa lusakumunu!”»
BSB
BSB:
May peoples serve you and nations bow down to you. May you be the master of your brothers, and may the sons of your mother bow down to you. May those who curse you be cursed, and those who bless you be blessed.”
30
MKW
Isaaki manisaka na kusakumuna Yakobi. Kaka na ntangu yina Yakobi bikaka tata ya yandi, mpangi ya yandi Esawu, yina katukaka na mbingu kwizaka kuma.
BSB
BSB:
As soon as Isaac had finished blessing him and Jacob had left his father’s presence, his brother Esau returned from the hunt.
31
MKW
Esawu mpe lambaka madya ya kitoko. Yandi natinaka yawu tata ya yandi, mpe yandi tubaka ya yandi: «Tata ya munu, vumbuka nge kudya kibulu yina mwana ya nge me kuzwa, samu ti nge sakumuna munu.»
BSB
BSB:
He too made some tasty food, brought it to his father, and said to him, “My father, sit up and eat of your son’s game, so that you may bless me.”
32
MKW
Tata ya yandi Isaaki yufulaka: «Nge ni nani?» Yandi vutulaka: «Ni munu Esawu, mwana ya nge ya ntete.»
BSB
BSB:
But his father Isaac replied, “Who are you?” “I am Esau, your firstborn son,” he answered.
33
MKW
Isaaki bandaka na kutekita mingi mpe yandi tubaka: «Nani me kwenda kubula kibulu mpe me natina munu yawu? Mu me kudya yawu ntete nge kwiza. Mu me sakumuna yandi, mpe yandi ke vwanda na lusakumunu.»
BSB
BSB:
Isaac began to tremble violently and said, “Who was it, then, who hunted the game and brought it to me? Before you came in, I ate it all and blessed him—and indeed, he will be blessed!”
34
MKW
Ntangu Esawu kuwaka mambu yina tata ya yandi zonzaka, yandi lookaka na ngolo mpe ya salaka yandi mpasi mingi na ntima. Yandi tubaka na tata ya yandi: «Tata, sakumuna munu mpe.»
BSB
BSB:
When Esau heard his father’s words, he let out a loud and bitter cry and said to his father, “Bless me too, O my father!”
35
MKW
Isaaki vutulaka: «Mpangi ya nge vwandaka me kwiza vuna munu awa, mpe yandi me baka lusakumunu ya nge.»
BSB
BSB:
But Isaac replied, “Your brother came deceitfully and took your blessing.”
36
MKW
Esawu tubaka: «Nkumbu ya Yakobi me bonga na yandi samu ti, yandi me vuna munu bambala zole! Ya ntete, yandi bakaka munu bukuluntu. Na mbala yayi, yandi me laba lusakumunu ya munu!» Esawu tubaka dyaka: «Tata, nge me bikana ve na lusakumunu ya nkaka samu na munu?»
BSB
BSB:
So Esau declared, “Is he not rightly named Jacob? For he has cheated me twice. He took my birthright, and now he has taken my blessing.” Then he asked, “Haven’t you saved a blessing for me?”
37
MKW
Isaaki tubaka na Esawu: «Tala, mu me tula yandi mfumu ya nge, bampangi ya yandi nyonso ke vwanda bisadi ya yandi. Mu me pesa yandi bambuma ya faline na vinu ya malu-malu. Nge mwana ya munu, yinki dyaka mu ke sala samu na nge?»
BSB
BSB:
But Isaac answered Esau: “Look, I have made him your master and given him all his relatives as servants; I have sustained him with grain and new wine. What is left that I can do for you, my son?”
38
MKW
Esawu tubaka na tata ya yandi: «Tata, lusakumunu nyonso vwandaka na nge kaka ni yina? Tata, sakumuna munu mpe.» Mpe Esawu bandaka na kudila na ngolo.
BSB
BSB:
Esau said to his father, “Do you have only one blessing, my father? Bless me too, O my father!” Then Esau wept aloud.
39
MKW
Na yina, tata ya yandi Isaaki tubaka na yandi: «Nge ke zinga ntama na ntoto yina ke pesaka madya. Kinoko ya mazulu ke kubwa ve na bilanga ya nge.
BSB
BSB:
His father Isaac answered him: “Behold, your dwelling place shall be away from the richness of the land, away from the dew of heaven above.
40
MKW
Nge ke banda na kuzwaka madya ya nge na mbele ya nge ya mvita. Nge ke vwanda kisadi ya leki ya nge. Ntangu nge ke banda na kwendaka tambula bisika ya mutindu na mutindu, nge ke katula kizitu ya leki ya nge na zulu ya yintu ya nge. Na yina, nge ke kuzwa kimpwanza.»
BSB
BSB:
You shall live by the sword and serve your brother. But when you rebel, you will tear his yoke from your neck.”
41
MKW
Esawu bandaka na kuyina Yakobi samu na lusakumunu yina Yakobi kuzwaka na sika ya tata ya bawu. Na yina, yandi tubaka na yisi ya ntima: «Kilumbu ya lufwa ya tata ya munu ke dyaka ntama ve. Mpe na manima, mu ke kufwa Yakobi.»
BSB
BSB:
Esau held a grudge against Jacob because of the blessing his father had given him. And Esau said in his heart, “The days of mourning for my father are at hand; then I will kill my brother Jacob.”
42
MKW
Ba zabisaka Lebeka mambu yina mwana ya yandi ya ntete Esawu vwandaka tuba. Na yina, Lebeka bokilaka Yakobi, mwana ya yandi ya zole, mpe yandi tubaka na yandi: «Yaya ya nge Esawu zola kuvutula nge yimbi, yandi ke na kusosa na kufwa nge.
BSB
BSB:
When the words of her older son Esau were relayed to Rebekah, she sent for her younger son Jacob and told him, “Look, your brother Esau is consoling himself by plotting to kill you.
43
MKW
Mwana ya munu kuwa munu! Kima malu-malu yayi na sika ya nkazi ya munu Labane, na mbanza Alane.
BSB
BSB:
So now, my son, obey my voice and flee at once to my brother Laban in Haran.
44
MKW
Nge ke zinga kuna tii ntangu nkele ya yaya ya nge ke manisa.
BSB
BSB:
Stay with him for a while, until your brother’s fury subsides—
45
MKW
Ntangu nkele ya yaya ya nge ke manisa mpe yandi ke zimbana mambu yina nge me sala yandi, mu ke fidisa muntu na kwiza baka nge kuna. Mu zola ve kuwombisa bana ya munu nyonso zole na kilumbu mosi.»
BSB
BSB:
until your brother’s rage against you wanes and he forgets what you have done to him. Then I will send for you and bring you back from there. Why should I lose both of you in one day?”
46
MKW
Lebeka tubaka na Isaaki: «Mu ke dyaka ve na kilengi ya luzingu samu na babokilo ya munu yayi ya ba-Iti. Luzingu ke vwanda dyaka ve mfunu samu na munu, kana Yakobi mpe kwela kento na kati ya bandumba ya yinsi ya ba-Iti mutindu bawu yayi.»
BSB
BSB:
Then Rebekah said to Isaac, “I am weary of my life because of these Hittite women. If Jacob takes a Hittite wife from among them, what good is my life?”
