1Tedae Isaak te a patong vaengah a mik hmang tih tueng pa pawh. Te vaengah a capa a ham Esau te a khue tih, “Ka capa,” a ti nah hatah a taengah, “Kai ni he,” a ti nah.
1Now Isaac was old, and his eyes were dim, and he could not see: and he called Esau, his elder son, and said to him: My son? And he answered: Here I am.
2Te phoeiah, “Ka patong coeng tih ka dueknah khohnin khaw ka ming moenih he.
2And his father said to him: Thou seest that I am old, and know not the day of my death.
3Te dongah na hnopai, na liva neh na lii te lo laeh. Te phoeiah pong ah cet lamtah kai ham lampu sakah han yuep laeh.
3Take thy arms, thy quiver, and bow, and go abroad: and when thou hast taken some thing by hunting,
4Te phoeiah ka ngaih vanbangla kai ham antui saii lamtah ka taengla han khuen. Ka ca saeh lamtah ka hinglu loh ka duek hlan ah nang te yoethen kan pae eh?,” a ti nah.
4Make me savoury meat thereof, as thou knowest I like, and bring it, that I may eat: and my soul may bless thee before I die.
5Isaak loh a capa Esau taengah a thui vaengah Rebekah loh a yaak. Te dongah Esau tah pong ah maeh loh ham saa yuep la cet.
5And when Rebecca had heard this, and he was gone into the field to fulfill his father’s commandment,
6Te vaengah Rebekah loh a capa Jakob te a uen tih, “Na pa loh na maya Esau te a voek coeng ne.
6She said to her son Jacob: I heard thy father talking with Esau thy brother, and saying to him:
7'Sakah te kai taengah han khuen lamtah kai ham antui saii laeh. Te phoeiah ka ca saeh lamtah ka duek hlan ah BOEIPA hmuh ah nang yoethen kan pae eh,’ a ti nah te ka yaak coeng he.
7Bring me of thy hunting, and make me meats that I may eat, and bless thee in the sight of the Lord, before I die.
8Te dongah ka ca, kai loh nang kan uen bangla ka ol he ngai laeh.
8Now, therefore, my son, follow my counsel:
9Boiva taengla cet lamtah maae ca a then panit te kamah taengla han khuen laeh. Te phoeiah na pa ham a ngaih bangla antui ka saii eh.
9And go thy way to the flock, bring me two kids of the best, that I may make of them meat for thy father, such as he gladly eateth:
10Te phoeiah na pa taengla khuen lamtah ca saeh. Te nen te a duek hlan ah nang te yoethen m'paesaeh ,” a ti nah.
10Which when thou hast brought in, and he hath eaten, he may bless thee before he die.
11Tedae Jakob loh a manu Rebekah taengah, “Ka maya Esau tah mulsui hlang tih kai tah sahnal hlang ni he.
11And he answered her: Thou knowest that Esau my brother is a hairy man, and I am smooth.
12A pa loh kai te m'phatuem khaming, a mik ah laithae la ka om vetih kai soah rhunkhuennah thoeng koinih yoethennah moenih,” a ti nah.
12If my father shall feel me, and perceive it, I fear lest he will think I would have mocked him, and I shall bring upon me a curse instead of a blessing.
13Tedae a manu loh anih taengah, “Ka capa nang sokah rhunkhuennah te kai soah tla saeh. Kai ol he duem ngai laeh. Te dongah cet lamtah kamah taengla hang khuen,” a ti nah.
13And his mother said to him: Upon me be this curse, my son: only hear thou my voice, and go, fetch me the things which I have said.
14Te dongah cet tih a loh phoeiah a manu taengla a khuen. Te vaengah a manu loh a napa kah a ngaih bangla antui a saii pah.
14He went, and brought, and gave them to his mother. She dressed meats, such as she knew his father liked.
15Te phoeiah Rebekah loh a capa a ham Esau kah himbai then te, im ah a loh tih a ca noe Jakob te a bai sak.
15And she put on him very good garments of Esau, which she had at home with her:
16Te phoeiah maae ca kah a vin te a kut neh a rhawn kah a sahnal soah a dah pah.
16And the little skins of the kids she put about his hands, and covered the bare of his neck.
17Te phoeiah antui neh buh a saii te a capa Jakob kut ah a doe.
17And she gave him the savoury meat, and delivered him bread that she had baked.
18Te phoeiah a napa taengla cet tih, “A pa,” a ti nah hatah, “Kai ni he, ka ca nang he unim?” a ti nah.
18Which when he had carried in, he said: My father? But he answered: I hear. Who art thou, my son?
19Tedae Jakob loh a napa taengah, “Kai he na caming Esau ni. Kai taengah nan thui bangla ka saii coeng. Thoo lamtah, ngol laeh. Ka sakah he ca lamtah na hinglu loh kai he yoethen paek saeh,” a ti nah.
19And Jacob said: I am Esau thy firstborn: I have done as thou didst command me: arise, sit, and eat of my venison, that thy soul may bless me.
20Tedae Isaak loh a capa te, “Ka ca metlam lae hekah he koe na hmuh lah,” a ti nah. Te dongah, “Na Pathen BOEIPA loh kai ham a thoeng sak dongah ni,” a ti nah.
20And Isaac said to his son: How couldst thou find it so quickly, my son? He answered: It was the will of God, that what I sought came quickly in my way.
21Te dongah Isaak loh Jakob te, “Bet ha thoeih lamtah ka ca nang te, ka ca Esau taktak neh taktak pawt a khaw kan yam lah eh,” a ti nah.
21And Isaac said: Come hither, that I may feel thee, my son, and may prove whether thou be my son Esau, or not.
22Te dongah Jakob loh a napa Isaak taengla thoeih tih a phatuem vaengah, “Ol tah Jakob ol dae a kut tah Esau kut,” a ti nah.
22He came near to 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.
23Tedae a kut te a maya Esau kut phek, mulsui la a om dongah anih te hmat pawt tih yoethen a paek.
23And he knew him not, because his hairy hands made him like to the elder. Then blessing him,
24Te vaengah, “Nang he ka ca Esau taktak a?” a ti nah hatah, “Kai ni ue,” a ti nah.
24He said: Art thou my son Esau? He answered: I am.
25Te dongah, “Kai taengla han thoeih lamtah ka ca kah sakah te ka ca eh. Ka hinglu loh nang yoethen m'pae saeh,” a ti nah. Te phoeiah a taengla a thoeih pah. Te vaengah a caak phoeiah misurtui khaw a khuen pah tih a ok.
25Then he said: Bring me the meats of thy hunting, my son, that my soul may bless thee. And when they were brought, and he had eaten, he offered him wine also, which after he had drunk,
26Te phoeiah a napa Isaak loh anih te, “Ka ca bet ha thoeih lamtah kai m'mok,” a ti nah.
26He said to him: Come near me, and give me a kiss, my son.
27Te dongah thoeih tih a mok. Te vaengah a himbai bo te a him pah tih yoethen a paek. Te phoeiah, “So lah, ka capa bo he, BOEIPA loh yoethen a paek khohmuen bo bangla om.
27He came near, and kissed him. And immediately as he smelled the fragrant smell of his garments, blessing him, he said: Behold the smell of my son is as the smell of a plentiful field, which the Lord hath blessed.
28Te dongah Pathen loh nang taengah vaan lamkah buemtui khaw, diklai khuehtawn khaw, cangpai cungkuem neh misur thai khaw m'pae saeh.
28God give thee the dew of heaven, and of the fatness of the earth, abundance of corn and wine.
29Pilnam rhoek loh nang taengah thotat uh saeh lamtah, namtu loh nang taengah bakuep khaw bakuep saeh. Na pacaboeina rhoek taengah boei la om lamtah na manu ca rhoek loh nang taengah bakop uh saeh. Nang thae aka phoei thil tah thaephoei thil saeh. Nang yoethen aka pae te yoethen pae saeh,” a ti nah.
29And let peoples serve thee, and tribes worship thee: be thou lord of thy brethren, and let thy mother’s children bow down before thee. Cursed be he that curseth thee: and let him that blesseth thee be filled with blessings.
30Tedae Isaak loh Jakob yoethen a paek te a khah van neh Jakob tah a napa Isaak mikhmuh lamloh nong tih vawl cet. Te phoeiah a maya Esau te a sakah nah lamkah tloep pai.
30Isaac had scarce ended his words, when Jacob being now gone out abroad, Esau came,
31Anih long khaw antui a saii van tih a napa taengla a khuen. Te phoeiah a napa te, “A pa thoo lamtah na capa kah sakah he ca laeh. Na hinglu loh kai yoethen m'pae saeh,” a ti nah.
31And brought in to his father meats made of what he had taken in hunting, saying: Arise, my father, and eat of thy son’s venison; that thy soul may bless me.
32Tedae anih te a napa Isaak loh, “Nang ulae?” a ti nah hatah, “Kai, na capa na caming Esau ni,” a ti nah.
32And Isaac said to him: Why! who art thou? He answered: I am thy firstborn son Esau.
33Te dongah Isaak tah thuennah neh a nah la mat lakueng tih, “Saa a yuep phoeiah kai taengla aka khuen te ulae? Na lo hlan ah boeih ka caak tih anih te yoethen ka paek dongah a yoethen ngawn coeng,” a ti nah.
33Isaac was struck with fear, and astonished exceedingly: and wondering beyond what can be believed, said Who is he then that even now brought me venison that he had taken, and I ate of all before thou camest? and I have blessed him, and he shall be blessed.
34Esau loh a napa kah olka te a yaak tih a len la pangngawlnah neh hluthlut mat pang. A napa taengah, “A pa, kai khaw yoethen m'pae,” a ti nah.
34Esau having heard his father’s words, roared out with a great cry: and being in a great consternation, said: Bless me also, my father.
35Tedae, “Na mana te thailatnah neh halo tih nang kah yoethennah a loh coeng,” a ti nah.
35And he said: Thy brother came deceitfully and got thy blessing.
36Te dongah Esau loh, “A ming khaw Jakob la a khue pai. Te dongah ni a pabae la kai n'rhim tih kai kah caminghamsum te a loh. Te phoeiah kai kah yoethennah a loh coeng he,” a ti. Te phoeiah, “Kai ham tah yoethennah na paih pawt nim?,” a ti nah.
36But he said again: Rightly is his name called Jacob; for he hath supplanted me lo this second time: my first birthright he took away before, and now this second time he hath stolen away my blessing. And again he said to his father: Hast thou not reserved me also a blessing?
37Tedae Isaak loh Esau te a doo tih, “Anih te nang soah boei la ka khueh coeng ne. Te dongah a pacaboeina boeih te a taengah sal la ka paek. Te phoeiah cangpai neh misur thai khaw anih ka pang sak coeng. Te dongah ka ca nang ham balae ka saii bal eh?,” a ti nah.
37Isaac answered: I have appointed him thy lord, and have made all his brethren his servants: I have established him with corn and wine, and after this, what shall I do more for thee, my son?
38Tedae Esau loh a napa taengah, “a pa na taengkah yoethennah te pakhat khaw ta? Kai khaw yoethen m'pae van saw a pa,” a ti nah. Te vaengah Esau loh a ol te a huel tih rhap.
38And Esau said to him: Hast thou only one blessing, father? I beseech thee bless me also. And when he wept with a loud cry,
39Te dongah a napa Isaak loh anih te a doo tih, “Diklai kah khuehtawn neh vaan dong sosang lamkah buemtui loh namah tolrhum ah om bitni ne.
39Isaac being moved, said to him: In the fat of the earth, and in the dew of heaven from above,
40Na cunghang neh na hing vetih na mana taengah na thotat ni. Tedae na van van neh na rhawn dongkah a hnamkun te na bawt bitni,” a ti nah.
40Shall thy blessing be. Thou shalt live by the sword and shalt serve thy brother: and the time shall come, when thou shalt shake off and loose his yoke from thy neck.
41Tedae a napa kah yoethennah te anih te yoethen a paek dongah Esau loh Jakob taengah a konaeh. Te dongah Esau loh a lungbuei khuiah,” A pa kah nguekcoinah tue yoei, ka mana Jakob te ka ngawn ni,” a ti.
41Esau therefore always hated Jacob for the blessing wherewith his father had blessed him: and he said in his heart: The days will come of the mourning of my father, and I will kill my brother Jacob.
42Tedae a capa a ham Esau kah olka te Rebekah taengah a puen pah. Te dongah a capa a noe Jakob te a tah tih a khue sak. Te phoeiah amah taengah, “Na maya Esau loh nang ngawn daengah ni nang ham dam a ti eh ne.
42These things were told to Rebecca: and she sent and called Jacob her son, and said to him: Behold Esau thy brother threateneth to kill thee.
43Te dongah ka ca, kai ol he ngai laeh. Thoo lamtah Haran ah ka nganpa Laban taengla namah yong laeh.
43Now therefore, my son, hear my voice: arise and flee to Laban my brother to Haran:
44Na maya kah kosi a mael hil hnin at khaw anih taengla khosa mai.
44And thou shalt dwell with him a few days, till the wrath of thy brother be assuaged,
45Na maya loh nang taengkah thintoek te mael tih anih taengah na saii te a hnilh phoeiah kan tah vetih te lamkah nang kan loh bitni. Balae tih nangmih rhoi khaw hnin at ah kan hlong eh?” a ti nah.
45And his indignation cease, and he forget the things thou hast done to him: afterwards I will send, and bring thee from thence hither. Why shall I be deprived of both my sons in one day?
46Te dongah Rebekah loh Isaak taengah, “Kheth nu mikhmuh ah ka hingnah loh a mueipuel. Amih Kheth nu bang tolrhum kah huta te Jakob loh a yuu la lo koinih kai kah hingnah he metlam a om eh?,” a ti nah.
46And Rebecca said to Isaac: I am weary of my life because of the daughters of Heth: if Jacob take a wife of the stock of this land, I choose not to live.
