1 M arkii Isxaaq gaboobay, oo ay indhihiisii u arag darnaayeen si uusan waxba arki karin, ayuu u yeedhay wiilkiisii weynaa oo Ceesaw ahaa, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Wiilkaygiiyow. Isaguna wuxuu yidhi, Waa i kan.

Now it came to pass, when Isaac was old and his eyes were so dim that he could not see, that he called Esau his older son and said to him, “My son.” And he answered him, “Here I am.”

2 M arkaasuu yidhi, Bal i eeg, haatan waan gaboobay, garanna maayo maalinta dhimashadayda.

Then he said, “Behold now, I am old. I do not know the day of my death.

3 S idaas daraaddeed waan ku baryayaaye, qaado hubkaaga, gabooyahaaga iyo qaansadaada, oo duurka u bax, oo hilib ugaadheed ii keen;

Now therefore, please take your weapons, your quiver and your bow, and go out to the field and hunt game for me.

4 o o ii samee hilib macaan, oo ah kan aan jeclahay, oo ii keen, aan cunee, inay naftaydu kuu ducayso intaanan dhiman.

And make me savory food, such as I love, and bring it to me that I may eat, that my soul may bless you before I die.”

5 R ebeqahna way maqashay markii Isxaaq la hadlay wiilkiisii Ceesaw. Ceesawna duurkuu u kacay inuu ugaadh soo dilo oo uu keeno.

Now Rebekah was listening when Isaac spoke to Esau his son. And Esau went to the field to hunt game and to bring it.

6 M arkaasay Rebeqah la hadashay wiilkeedii Yacquub, oo tidhi, Waxaan maqlay aabbahaa oo la hadlaya walaalkaa Ceesaw, isagoo leh,

So Rebekah spoke to Jacob her son, saying, “Indeed I heard your father speak to Esau your brother, saying,

7 H ilib ugaadheed ii keen, oo ii samee hilib macaan, aan cunee, oo aan kuugu duceeyee Rabbiga hortiis intaanan dhimane.

‘Bring me game and make savory food for me, that I may eat it and bless you in the presence of the Lord before my death.’

8 H addaba sidaas daraaddeed, wiilkaygiiyow, codkayga u addeec sida aan kuugu amro.

Now therefore, my son, obey my voice according to what I command you.

9 B al adhiga u kac, oo iiga keen laba waxar oo wanwanaagsan, oo waxaan aabbahaa uga samayn hilib macaan, oo ah kan uu jecel yahay,

Go now to the flock and bring me from there two choice kids of the goats, and I will make savory food from them for your father, such as he loves.

10 a dna aabbahaa waad u geeyn doontaa inuu cuno, si uu kuugu duceeyo intuusan dhiman.

Then you shall take it to your father, that he may eat it, and that he may bless you before his death.”

11 Y acquubna wuxuu hooyadiis Rebeqah ku yidhi, Walaalkay Ceesaw waa nin xaad badan, anna waxaan ahay nin xaad yar.

And Jacob said to Rebekah his mother, “Look, Esau my brother is a hairy man, and I am a smooth- skinned man.

12 M indhaa aabbahay waa i taaban doonaa, oo markaasaan ula ekaan doonaa khaa'in, oo habaar baan isu soo jiidi doonaa, ducose ma heli doono.

Perhaps my father will feel me, and I shall seem to be a deceiver to him; and I shall bring a curse on myself and not a blessing.”

13 O o hooyadiis baa ku tidhi, Wiilkaygiiyow, habaarkaagu aniga ha igu dhaco: codkayga uun addeec, oo orod oo ii keen iyaga.

But his mother said to him, “ Let your curse be on me, my son; only obey my voice, and go, get them for me.”

14 M arkaasuu tegey, oo soo kaxeeyey, oo u keenay hooyadiis, hooyadiisna waxay samaysay hilib macaan, oo ah sidii kii aabbihiis jeclaa.

And he went and got them and brought them to his mother, and his mother made savory food, such as his father loved.

15 M arkaasaa Rebeqah waxay soo qaadday dharkii wanaagsanaa oo wiilkeedii weynaa oo ahaa Ceesaw, oo ay guriga ku haysay, oo waxay u xidhay wiilkeedii yaraa oo ahaa Yacquub;

Then Rebekah took the choice clothes of her elder son Esau, which were with her in the house, and put them on Jacob her younger son.

16 m arkaasay waxarihii hargahoodii ku xidhay gacmihiisii iyo intii aan xaadda lahayn oo luquntiisii.

And she put the skins of the kids of the goats on his hands and on the smooth part of his neck.

17 M arkaasay hilibkii macaanaa iyo kibistii ay diyaarisay u dhiibtay wiilkeedii Yacquub.

Then she gave the savory food and the bread, which she had prepared, into the hand of her son Jacob.

18 K olkaasuu aabbihiis u yimid, oo yidhi, Aabbow. Isna wuxuu yidhi, Waa i kan. Kumaad tahay, wiilkaygiiyow?

So he went to his father and said, “My father.” And he said, “Here I am. Who are you, my son?”

19 Y acquubna wuxuu aabbihiis ku yidhi, Waxaan ahay curadkaagii Ceesaw. Waan sameeyey sidii aad iigu amartay. Haddaba waan ku baryayaaye, kac oo fadhiiso oo cun hilibkaygan ugaadheed, si aad iigu ducayso.

Jacob said to his father, “I am Esau your firstborn; I have done just as you told me; please arise, sit and eat of my game, that your soul may bless me.”

20 I sxaaqna wuxuu wiilkiisii ku yidhi, Wiilkaygiiyow, sidee baad dhaqso ugu soo heshay? Isna wuxuu yidhi, Maxaa yeelay, Rabbiga ah Ilaahaaga ayaa ii keenay.

But Isaac said to his son, “How is it that you have found it so quickly, my son?” And he said, “Because the Lord your God brought it to me.”

21 I sxaaqna wuxuu Yacquub ku yidhi, Soo dhowow, waan ku baryayaaye, aan ku taabtee, wiilkaygiiyow, bal inaad tahay wiilkaygii Ceesaw iyo in kale.

Isaac said to Jacob, “Please come near, that I may feel you, my son, whether you are really my son Esau or not.”

22 Y acquubna waa u dhowaaday aabbihiis Isxaaq; markaasuu taabtay oo yidhi, Codku waa codkii Yacquub, gacmuhuse waa gacmihii Ceesaw.

So Jacob went near to Isaac his father, and he felt him and said, “The voice is Jacob’s voice, but the hands are the hands of Esau.”

23 M ana uu garanin, maxaa yeelay, gacmihiisu xaad miidhan bay ahaayeen sidii gacmihii walaalkiis Ceesaw; sidaas daraaddeed wuu u duceeyey.

And he did not recognize him, because his hands were hairy like his brother Esau’s hands; so he blessed him.

24 K olkaasuu yidhi, War ma tahay wiilkaygii Ceesaw qudhiisii? Isna wuxuu yidhi, Waan ahay.

Then he said, “ Are you really my son Esau?” He said, “I am. ”

25 M arkaasuu ku yidhi. Bal ii soo dhowee, aan cunee wiilkayga hilibkiisa ugaadheed, si aan kuugu duceeyo. Kolkaasuu u soo dhoweeyey, oo isna wuu cunay: oo wuxuu kaloo u keenay khamri, wuuna cabbay.

He said, “Bring it near to me, and I will eat of my son’s game, so that my soul may bless you.” So he brought it near to him, and he ate; and he brought him wine, and he drank.

26 M arkaasaa aabbihiis Isxaaq ku yidhi, Bal ii soo dhowow, oo i dhunko, wiilkaygiiyow.

Then his father Isaac said to him, “Come near now and kiss me, my son.”

27 I sna wuu u soo dhowaaday, oo wuu dhunkaday. Markaasuu ursaday dharkiisa, wuuna u duceeyey, oo yidhi, Bal eeg, urta wiilkaygu Waa sida urta duurka Rabbigu barakeeyey,

And he came near and kissed him; and he smelled the smell of his clothing, and blessed him and said: “Surely, the smell of my son Is like the smell of a field Which the Lord has blessed.

28 I laahu ha ku siiyo sayaxa samada, Iyo barwaaqada dhulka, Iyo hadhuudh iyo khamri badan.

Therefore may God give you Of the dew of heaven, Of the fatness of the earth, And plenty of grain and wine.

29 D adyowgu ha kuu adeegeen, Quruumuhuna ha kuu sujuudeen. Walaalahaa sayid u noqo, Wiilasha hooyadaana ha kuu sujuudeen. Ha inkaarnaado ku kasta oo ku inkaaraa, Ha ducaysnaado ku kasta oo kuu duceeyaa.

Let peoples serve you, And nations bow down to you. Be master over your brethren, And let your mother’s sons bow down to you. Cursed be everyone who curses you, And blessed be those who bless you!” Esau’s Lost Hope

30 M arkii Isxaaq dhammeeyey ducadii uu Yacquub u ducaynayay, Yacquubna ka tegey aabbihiis, ayaa walaalkiis Ceesaw ka yimid ugaadhsigii.

Now it happened, as soon as Isaac had finished blessing Jacob, and Jacob had scarcely gone out from the presence of Isaac his father, that Esau his brother came in from his hunting.

31 O o isna hilib macaan buu sameeyey, oo u keenay aabbihiis; oo wuxuu ku yidhi aabbihiis, Aabbow kac, oo cun hilibkaygan ugaadheed, si aad iigu ducayso.

He also had made savory food, and brought it to his father, and said to his father, “Let my father arise and eat of his son’s game, that your soul may bless me.”

32 M arkaasaa aabbihiis Isxaaq ku yidhi, Kumaad tahay? Isna wuxuu yidhi, Waxaan ahay wiilkaaga ah curadkaaga Ceesaw.

And his father Isaac said to him, “Who are you?” So he said, “I am your son, your firstborn, Esau.”

33 M arkaasuu Isxaaq aad iyo aad u gariiray, oo yidhi, De yuu ahaa haddaba kii intuu hilib ugaadheed soo qaaday, ii keenay, oo aan kulli cunay intaadan iman ka hor, oo aan u duceeyey? Kaasu wuu ducaysnaan doonaa.

Then Isaac trembled exceedingly, and said, “Who? Where is the one who hunted game and brought it to me? I ate all of it before you came, and I have blessed him— and indeed he shall be blessed.”

34 C eesawna markuu maqlay hadalkii aabbihiis ayuu ku dhawaaqay dhawaaq aad iyo aad u weyn oo daran, oo wuxuu aabbihiis ku yidhi, Aabbahayow, anigana ii ducee.

When Esau heard the words of his father, he cried with an exceedingly great and bitter cry, and said to his father, “Bless me—me also, O my father!”

35 I sna wuxuu yidhi, Walaalkaa baa khiyaano iila yimid oo ducadaadii qaatay.

But he said, “Your brother came with deceit and has taken away your blessing.”

36 O o wuxuu yidhi, Miyaanay ku habboonayn in magiciisa loo bixiyo Yacquub? Waayo, labadan goor buu i khiyaaneeyey. Curadnimadaydii buu qaatay; haatanna wuxuu qaatay ducadaydii. Oo wuxuu yidhi, Miyaadan duco ii reebin?

And Esau said, “Is he not rightly named Jacob? For he has supplanted me these two times. He took away my birthright, and now look, he has taken away my blessing!” And he said, “Have you not reserved a blessing for me?”

37 I sxaaqna wuu jawaabay oo wuxuu Ceesaw ku yidhi, Bal eeg, waxaan isaga ka dhigay sayidkaagii, walaalihiis oo dhanna waxaan u siiyey isaga inay addoommo u noqdaan, hadhuudh iyo khamrina waan u ballanqaaday, ee maxaan haddaba adiga kuu sameeyaa, wiilkaygiiyow?

Then Isaac answered and said to Esau, “Indeed I have made him your master, and all his brethren I have given to him as servants; with grain and wine I have sustained him. What shall I do now for you, my son?”

38 C eesawna wuxuu aabbihiis ku yidhi, Aabbahayow, ducadaadu ma mid keliya baa? Ii ducee anigana sidoo kale, Aabbow. Markaasuu Ceesaw aad u qayliyey oo ooyay.

And Esau said to his father, “Have you only one blessing, my father? Bless me—me also, O my father!” And Esau lifted up his voice and wept.

39 M arkaasaa aabbihiis Isxaaq u jawaabay oo ku yidhi, Bal eeg, rugtaadu waxay ahaan doontaa meel ka baxsan dhulka barwaaqadiisa Iyo sayaxa samada sare ka yimaada.

Then Isaac his father answered and said to him: “Behold, your dwelling shall be of the fatness of the earth, And of the dew of heaven from above.

40 O o waxaad ku noolaan doontaa seeftaada, walaalkaana waad u adeegi doontaa, Oo waxaa dhici doonta markaad xukunka qabsato Inaad harqoodkiisa surkaaga ka tuuri doonto. Yacquub Oo U Cararaya Laabaan

By your sword you shall live, And you shall serve your brother; And it shall come to pass, when you become restless, That you shall break his yoke from your neck.” Jacob Escapes from Esau

41 C eesawna wuxuu Yacquub u nebcaaday ducadii aabbihiis ugu duceeyey aawadeed. Ceesawna wuxuu isku yidhi, Maalmihii aabbahay loo barooran lahaa waa dhow yihiin; dabadeedna waan dili doonaa walaalkay Yacquub.

So Esau hated Jacob because of the blessing with which his father blessed 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 R ebeqahna waxaa loo sheegay hadalkii wiilkeedii weynaa oo ahaa Ceesaw; markaasay intay u cid dirtay u yeedhay wiilkeedii yaraa oo ahaa Yacquub, oo waxay ku tidhi isagii, Bal eeg, walaalkaa Ceesaw wuxuu isku qalbi qabowjiyaa talajirka uu ku talo jiro inuu ku dilo.

And the words of Esau her older son were told to Rebekah. So she sent and called Jacob her younger son, and said to him, “Surely your brother Esau comforts himself concerning you by intending to kill you.

43 H addaba sidaas daraaddeed wiilkaygiiyow, codkayga addeec. Kac oo u carar walaalkay Laabaan xagga Haaraan;

Now therefore, my son, obey my voice: arise, flee to my brother Laban in Haran.

44 o o dhawr maalmood isaga la joog, ilaa walaalkaa ciilku ka ba'ayo, iyo ilaa walaalkaa cadhaduu kuu qabo ka ba'ayso,

And stay with him a few days, until your brother’s fury turns away,

45 o o uu ka illoobayo wixii aad ku samaysay: dabadeedna waan kuu soo cid diri doonaa, oo halkaasaan kaa soo kaxayn doonaa. Maxaan labadiinnaba isku maalin idiin waayayaa?

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 from there. Why should I be bereaved also of you both in one day?”

46 R ebeqahna waxay Isxaaq ku tidhi, Naftaydu waa rafaadsan tahay gabdhaha reer Xeed dartood. Haddii Yacquub naag ka guursado gabdhaha reer Xeed oo kuwan oo kale ah, kuwaas oo ah gabdhaha waddanka, noloshaydu maxay igu taraysaa?

And Rebekah said to Isaac, “I am weary of my life because of the daughters of Heth; if Jacob takes a wife of the daughters of Heth, like these who are the daughters of the land, what good will my life be to me?”
