Genesis 27

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN	SMITH VAN DYKE
1 Now Isaac was old, and his eyes were cloudy, and so he was not able to see. And he called his elder son Esau, and he said to him, “My son?” And he responded, “Here I am.”	1 وحدث لما شاخ اسحق وكلّت عيناه عن النظر انه دعا عيسو ابنه الاكبر وقال له يا ابني. فقال له هانذا.
2 His father said to him: “You see that I am old, and I do not know the day of my death.	2 فقال انني قد شخت ولست اعرف يوم وفاتي.
3 Take your weapons, the quiver and the bow, and go out. And when you have taken something by hunting,	3 فالآن خذ عدتك جعبتك وقوسك واخرج الى البرية وتصيّد لي صيدا.
4 make from it a small meal for me, just as you know I like, and bring it, so that I may eat and my soul may bless you before I die.”	4 واصنع لي اطعمة كما احب وأتني بها لآكل حتى تباركك نفسي قبل ان اموت
5 And when Rebekah had heard this, and he had gone out into the field to fulfill his father’s order,	5 وكانت رفقة سامعة اذ تكلم اسحق مع عيسو ابنه. فذهب عيسو الى البرية كي يصطاد صيدا ليأتي به.
6 she said to her son Jacob: “I heard your father speaking with your brother Esau, and saying to him,	6 وأما رفقة فكلمت يعقوب ابنها قائلة اني قد سمعت اباك يكلم عيسو اخاك قائلا.
7 ‘Bring to me from your hunting, and make me foods, so that I may eat and bless you in the sight of the Lord before I die.’	7 ائتني بصيد واصنع لي اطعمة لآكل واباركك امام الرب قبل وفاتي.
8 Therefore, now my son, agree to my counsel,	8 فالآن يا ابني اسمع لقولي في ما انا آمرك به.
9 and go straight to the flock, and bring me two of the best young goats, so that from them I may make meat for your father, such as he willingly eats.	9 اذهب الى الغنم وخذ لي من هناك جديين جيّدين من المعزى. فأصنعهما اطعمة لابيك كما يحب.
10 Then, when you have brought these in and he has eaten, he may bless you before he dies.”	10 فتحضرها الى ابيك لياكل حتى يباركك قبل وفاته.
11 He answered her: “You know that my brother Esau is a hairy man, and I am smooth.	11 فقال يعقوب لرفقة امه هوذا عيسو اخي رجل اشعر وانا رجل املس.
12 If my father should lay hands on me and perceive it, I am afraid lest he think me willing to mock him, and I will bring a curse upon myself, instead of a blessing.”	12 ربما يجسّني ابي فاكون في عينيه كمتهاون واجلب على نفسي لعنة لا بركة.
13 And his mother said to him: “Let this curse be upon me, my son. Yet listen to my voice, and go directly to bring what I said.”	13 فقالت له امه لعنتك عليّ يا ابني. اسمع لقولي فقط واذهب خذ لي.
14 He went out, and he brought, and he gave to his mother. She prepared the meats, just as she knew his father liked.	14 فذهب واخذ واحضر لامه. فصنعت امه اطعمة كما كان ابوه يحب.
15 And she clothed him with the very fine garments of Esau, which she had at home with her.	15 واخذت رفقة ثياب عيسو ابنها الاكبر الفاخرة التي كانت عندها في البيت والبست يعقوب ابنها الاصغر.
16 And she encircled his hands with little pelts from the young goats, and she covered his bare neck.	16 والبست يديه وملاسة عنقه جلود جديي المعزى.
17 And she gave him the small meal, and she handed him the bread that she had baked.	17 واعطت الاطعمة والخبز التي صنعت في يد يعقوب ابنها
18 When he had carried these in, he said, “My father?” And he answered, “I’m listening. Who are you, my son?”	18 فدخل الى ابيه وقال يا ابي. فقال هانذا. من انت يا ابني.
19 And Jacob said: “I am Esau, your firstborn. I have done as you instructed me. Arise; sit and eat from my hunting, so that your soul may bless me.”	19 فقال يعقوب لابيه انا عيسو بكرك. قد فعلت كما كلمتني. قم اجلس وكل من صيدي لكي تباركني نفسك.
20 And again Isaac said to his son, “How were you able to find it so quickly, my son?” He answered, “It was the will of God, so that what I sought met with me quickly.”	20 فقال اسحق لابنه ما هذا الذي اسرعت لتجد يا ابني. فقال ان الرب الهك قد يسّر لي.
21 And Isaac said, “Come here, so that I may touch you, my son, and may prove whether you are my son Esau, or not.”	21 فقال اسحق ليعقوب تقدم لاجسّك يا ابني. أأنت هو ابني عيسو ام لا.
22 He approached his father, and when he had felt him, Isaac said: “The voice indeed is the voice of Jacob. But the hands are the hands of Esau.”	22 فتقدم يعقوب الى اسحق ابيه. فجسّه وقال الصوت صوت يعقوب ولكن اليدين يدا عيسو.
23 And he did not recognize him, because his hairy hands made him seem similar to the elder one. Therefore, blessing him,	23 ولم يعرفه لان يديه كانتا مشعرتين كيدي عيسو اخيه. فباركه . ‎
24 he said, “Are you my son Esau?” He answered, “I am.”	24 وقال هل انت هو ابني عيسو. فقال انا هو.
25 Then he said, “Bring me the foods from your hunting, my son, so that my soul may bless you.” And when he had eaten what was offered, he also brought forth wine for him. And after he finished it,	25 فقال قدم لي لآكل من صيد ابني حتى تباركك نفسي. فقدّم له فاكل. واحضر له خمرا فشرب.
26 he said to him, “Come to me and give me a kiss, my son.”	26 فقال له اسحق ابوه تقدم وقبّلني يا ابني.
27 He approached and kissed him. And immediately he perceived the fragrance of his garments. And so, blessing him, he said: “Behold, the smell of my son is like the smell of a plentiful field, which the Lord has blessed.	27 فتقدم وقبّله. فشم رائحة ثيابه وباركه. وقال انظر. رائحة ابني كرائحة حقل قد باركه الرب.
28 May God give to you, from the dew of heaven and from the fatness of the earth, an abundance of grain and wine.	28 فليعطك الله من ندى السماء. ومن دسم الارض. وكثرة حنطة وخمر.
29 And may the peoples serve you, and may the tribes reverence you. May you be the lord of your brothers, and may your mother’s sons bow down before you. Whoever curses you, may he be cursed, and whoever blesses you, may he be filled with blessings.”	29 ليستعبد لك شعوب. وتسجد لك قبائل. كن سيدا لاخوتك. وليسجد لك بنو امك. ليكن لاعنوك ملعونين. ومباركوك مباركين
30 Scarcely had Isaac completed his words, and Jacob departed, when Esau arrived.	30 وحدث عندما فرغ اسحق من بركة يعقوب ويعقوب قد خرج من لدن اسحق ابيه ان عيسو اخاه أتى من صيده.
31 And he brought his father foods cooked from his hunting, saying, “Arise, my father, and eat from your son’s hunting, so that your soul may bless me.”	31 فصنع هو ايضا اطعمة ودخل بها الى ابيه وقال لابيه ليقم ابي وياكل من صيد ابنه حتى تباركني نفسك.
32 And Isaac said to him, “But who are you?” And he answered, “I am your firstborn son, Esau.”	32 فقال له اسحق ابوه من انت. فقال انا ابنك بكرك عيسو.
33 Isaac became frightened and very astonished. And wondering beyond what can be believed, he said: “Then who is he that a while ago brought me the prey from his hunting, from which I ate, before you arrived? And I blessed him, and he will be blessed.”	33 فارتعد اسحق ارتعادا عظيما جدا. وقال فمن هو الذي اصطاد صيدا وأتى به اليّ فاكلت من الكل قبل ان تجيء وباركته. نعم ويكون مباركا.
34 Esau, having heard his father’s words, roared out with a great outcry. And, being confounded, he said, “But bless me also, my father.”	34 فعندما سمع عيسو كلام ابيه صرخ صرخة عظيمة ومرة جدا. وقال لابيه باركني انا ايضا يا ابي.
35 And he said, “Your twin came deceitfully, and he received your blessing.”	35 فقال قد جاء اخوك بمكر واخذ بركتك.
36 But he responded: “Justly is his name called Jacob. For he has supplanted me yet another time. My birthright he took away before, and now, this second time, he has stolen my blessing.” And again, he said to his father, “Have you not reserved a blessing for me also?”	36 فقال الا ان اسمه دعي يعقوب. فقد تعقبني الآن مرتين. اخذ بكوريتي وهوذا الآن قد اخذ بركتي. ثم قال أما ابقيت لي بركة.
37 Isaac answered: “I have appointed him as your lord, and I have subjugated all his brothers as his servants. I have reinforced him with grain and wine, and after this, my son, what more shall I do for you?”	37 فاجاب اسحق وقال لعيسو اني قد جعلته سيدا لك ودفعت اليه جميع اخوته عبيدا وعضدته بحنطة وخمر. فماذا اصنع اليك يا ابني.
38 And Esau said to him: “Have you only one blessing, father? I beg you, bless me also.” And when he wept with a loud wail,	38 فقال عيسو لابيه ألك بركة واحدة فقط يا ابي. باركني انا ايضا يا ابي. ورفع عيسو صوته وبكى.
39 Isaac was moved, and he said to him: “In the fatness of the earth, and in the dew of heaven from above,	39 فاجاب اسحق ابوه وقال له هوذا بلا دسم الارض يكون مسكنك. وبلا ندى السماء من فوق.
40 will your blessing be. You will live by the sword, and you will serve your brother. But the time will arrive when you will shake off and release his yoke from your neck.”	40 وبسيفك تعيش. ولاخيك تستعبد. ولكن يكون حينما تجمح انك تكسر نيره عن عنقك
41 Therefore, Esau always hated Jacob, for the blessing with which his father had blessed him. And he said in his heart, “The days will arrive for the mourning of my father, and I will kill my brother Jacob.”	41 فحقد عيسو على يعقوب من اجل البركة التي باركه بها ابوه. وقال عيسو في قلبه قربت ايام مناحة ابي. فاقتل يعقوب اخي.
42 These things were reported to Rebekah. And sending and calling for her son Jacob, she said to him, “Behold, your brother Esau is threatening to kill you.	42 فأخبرت رفقة بكلام عيسو ابنها الاكبر. فارسلت ودعت يعقوب ابنها الاصغر وقالت له هوذا عيسو اخوك متسلّ من جهتك بانه يقتلك.
43 Therefore, now my son, listen to my voice. Rise up and flee to my brother Laban, in Haran.	43 فالآن يا ابني اسمع لقولي وقم اهرب الى اخي لابان الى حاران.
44 And you will dwell with him for a few days, until the fury of your brother subsides,	44 وأقم عنده اياما قليلة حتى يرتد سخط اخيك.
45 and his indignation ceases, and he forgets the things that you have done to him. After this, I will send for you and bring you from there to here. Why should I be bereaved of both my sons in one day?”	45 حتى يرتد غضب اخيك عنك وينسى ما صنعت به. ثم ارسل فآخذك من هناك. لماذا اعدم اثنيكما في يوم واحد
46 And Rebekah said to Isaac, “I am weary of my life because of the daughters of Heth. If Jacob accepts a wife from the stock of this land, I would not be willing to live.”	46 وقالت رفقة لاسحق مللت حياتي من اجل بنات حثّ. ان كان يعقوب يأخذ زوجة من بنات حثّ مثل هؤلاء من بنات الارض فلماذا لي حياة
