¹And it came to pass, that when Isaac was old, and his eyes were dim, so that he could not see, he called Esau his eldest son, and said unto him, My son: and he said unto him, Behold, here am I.

¹وحدث لما شاخ اسحق وكلّت عيناه عن النظر انه دعا عيسو ابنه الاكبر وقال له يا ابني. فقال له هانذا.

²And he said, Behold now, I am old, I know not the day of my death:

²فقال انني قد شخت ولست اعرف يوم وفاتي.

³Now therefore take, I pray thee, thy weapons, thy quiver and thy bow, and go out to the field, and take me some venison;

³فالآن خذ عدتك جعبتك وقوسك واخرج الى البرية وتصيّد لي صيدا.

⁴And make me savory meat, such as I love, and bring it to me, that I may eat; that my soul may bless thee before I die.

⁴واصنع لي اطعمة كما احب وأتني بها لآكل حتى تباركك نفسي قبل ان اموت

⁵And Rebekah heard when Isaac spake to Esau his son. And Esau went to the field to hunt for venison, and to bring it.

⁵وكانت رفقة سامعة اذ تكلم اسحق مع عيسو ابنه. فذهب عيسو الى البرية كي يصطاد صيدا ليأتي به.

⁶And Rebekah spake unto Jacob her son, saying, Behold, I heard thy father speak unto Esau thy brother, saying,

⁶وأما رفقة فكلمت يعقوب ابنها قائلة اني قد سمعت اباك يكلم عيسو اخاك قائلا.

⁷Bring me venison, and make me savory meat, that I may eat, and bless thee before the LORD before my death.

⁷ائتني بصيد واصنع لي اطعمة لآكل واباركك امام الرب قبل وفاتي.

⁸Now therefore, my son, obey my voice according to that which I command thee.

⁸فالآن يا ابني اسمع لقولي في ما انا آمرك به.

⁹Go now to the flock, and fetch me from thence two good kids of the goats; and I will make them savory meat for thy father, such as he loveth:

⁹اذهب الى الغنم وخذ لي من هناك جديين جيّدين من المعزى. فأصنعهما اطعمة لابيك كما يحب.

¹⁰And thou shalt bring it to thy father, that he may eat, and that he may bless thee before his death.

¹⁰فتحضرها الى ابيك لياكل حتى يباركك قبل وفاته.

¹¹And Jacob said to Rebekah his mother, Behold, Esau my brother is a hairy man, and I am a smooth man:

¹¹فقال يعقوب لرفقة امه هوذا عيسو اخي رجل اشعر وانا رجل املس.

¹²My father peradventure will feel me, and I shall seem to him as a deceiver; and I shall bring a curse upon me, and not a blessing.

¹²ربما يجسّني ابي فاكون في عينيه كمتهاون واجلب على نفسي لعنة لا بركة.

¹³And his mother said unto him, Upon me be thy curse, my son: only obey my voice, and go fetch me them.

¹³فقالت له امه لعنتك عليّ يا ابني. اسمع لقولي فقط واذهب خذ لي.

¹⁴And he went, and fetched, and brought them to his mother: and his mother made savory meat, such as his father loved.

¹⁴فذهب واخذ واحضر لامه. فصنعت امه اطعمة كما كان ابوه يحب.

¹⁵And Rebekah took goodly raiment of her eldest son Esau, which were with her in the house, and put them upon Jacob her younger son:

¹⁵واخذت رفقة ثياب عيسو ابنها الاكبر الفاخرة التي كانت عندها في البيت والبست يعقوب ابنها الاصغر.

¹⁶And she put the skins of the kids of the goats upon his hands, and upon the smooth of his neck:

¹⁶والبست يديه وملاسة عنقه جلود جديي المعزى.

¹⁷And she gave the savory meat and the bread, which she had prepared, into the hand of her son Jacob.

¹⁷واعطت الاطعمة والخبز التي صنعت في يد يعقوب ابنها

¹⁸And he came unto his father, and said, My father: and he said, Here am I; who art thou, my son?

¹⁸فدخل الى ابيه وقال يا ابي. فقال هانذا. من انت يا ابني.

¹⁹And Jacob said unto his father, I am Esau thy first born; I have done according as thou badest me: arise, I pray thee, sit and eat of my venison, that thy soul may bless me.

¹⁹فقال يعقوب لابيه انا عيسو بكرك. قد فعلت كما كلمتني. قم اجلس وكل من صيدي لكي تباركني نفسك.

²⁰And Isaac said unto his son, How is it that thou hast found it so quickly, my son? And he said, Because the LORD thy God brought it to me.

²⁰فقال اسحق لابنه ما هذا الذي اسرعت لتجد يا ابني. فقال ان الرب الهك قد يسّر لي.

²¹And Isaac said unto Jacob, Come near, I pray thee, that I may feel thee, my son, whether thou be my very son Esau or not.

²¹فقال اسحق ليعقوب تقدم لاجسّك يا ابني. أأنت هو ابني عيسو ام لا.

²²And Jacob went near unto Isaac his father; and he felt him, and said, The voice is Jacob's voice, but the hands are the hands of Esau.

²²فتقدم يعقوب الى اسحق ابيه. فجسّه وقال الصوت صوت يعقوب ولكن اليدين يدا عيسو.

²³And he discerned him not, because his hands were hairy, as his brother Esau's hands: so he blessed him.

²³ولم يعرفه لان يديه كانتا مشعرتين كيدي عيسو اخيه. فباركه . ‎

²⁴And he said, Art thou my very son Esau? And he said, I am.

²⁴وقال هل انت هو ابني عيسو. فقال انا هو.

²⁵And he said, Bring it near to me, and I will eat of my son's venison, that my soul may bless thee. And he brought it near to him, and he did eat: and he brought him wine and he drank.

²⁵فقال قدم لي لآكل من صيد ابني حتى تباركك نفسي. فقدّم له فاكل. واحضر له خمرا فشرب.

²⁶And his father Isaac said unto him, Come near now, and kiss me, my son.

²⁶فقال له اسحق ابوه تقدم وقبّلني يا ابني.

²⁷And he came near, and kissed him: and he smelled the smell of his raiment, and blessed him, and said, See, the smell of my son is as the smell of a field which the LORD hath blessed:

²⁷فتقدم وقبّله. فشم رائحة ثيابه وباركه. وقال انظر. رائحة ابني كرائحة حقل قد باركه الرب.

²⁸Therefore God give thee of the dew of heaven, and the fatness of the earth, and plenty of corn and wine:

²⁸فليعطك الله من ندى السماء. ومن دسم الارض. وكثرة حنطة وخمر.

²⁹Let people serve thee, and nations bow down to thee: be lord over thy brethren, and let thy mother's sons bow down to thee: cursed be every one that curseth thee, and blessed be he that blesseth thee.

²⁹ليستعبد لك شعوب. وتسجد لك قبائل. كن سيدا لاخوتك. وليسجد لك بنو امك. ليكن لاعنوك ملعونين. ومباركوك مباركين

³⁰And it came to pass, as soon as Isaac had made an end of blessing Jacob, and Jacob was yet scarce gone out from the presence of Isaac his father, that Esau his brother came in from his hunting.

³⁰وحدث عندما فرغ اسحق من بركة يعقوب ويعقوب قد خرج من لدن اسحق ابيه ان عيسو اخاه أتى من صيده.

³¹And he also had made savory meat, and brought it unto his father, and said unto his father, Let my father arise, and eat of his son's venison, that thy soul may bless me.

³¹فصنع هو ايضا اطعمة ودخل بها الى ابيه وقال لابيه ليقم ابي وياكل من صيد ابنه حتى تباركني نفسك.

³²And Isaac his father said unto him, Who art thou? And he said, I am thy son, thy firstborn Esau.

³²فقال له اسحق ابوه من انت. فقال انا ابنك بكرك عيسو.

³³And Isaac trembled very exceedingly, and said, Who? where is he that hath taken venison, and brought it me, and I have eaten of all before thou camest, and have blessed him? yea, and he shall be blessed.

³³فارتعد اسحق ارتعادا عظيما جدا. وقال فمن هو الذي اصطاد صيدا وأتى به اليّ فاكلت من الكل قبل ان تجيء وباركته. نعم ويكون مباركا.

³⁴And when Esau heard the words of his father, he cried with a great and exceeding bitter cry, and said unto his father, Bless me, even me also, O my father.

³⁴فعندما سمع عيسو كلام ابيه صرخ صرخة عظيمة ومرة جدا. وقال لابيه باركني انا ايضا يا ابي.

³⁵And he said, Thy brother came with subtilty, and hath taken away thy blessing.

³⁵فقال قد جاء اخوك بمكر واخذ بركتك.

³⁶And he said, Is not he rightly named Jacob? for he hath supplanted me these two times: he took away my birthright; and, behold, now he hath taken away my blessing. And he said, Hast thou not reserved a blessing for me?

³⁶فقال الا ان اسمه دعي يعقوب. فقد تعقبني الآن مرتين. اخذ بكوريتي وهوذا الآن قد اخذ بركتي. ثم قال أما ابقيت لي بركة.

³⁷And Isaac answered and said unto Esau, Behold, I have made him thy lord, and all his brethren have I given to him for servants; and with corn and wine have I sustained him: and what shall I do now unto thee, my son?

³⁷فاجاب اسحق وقال لعيسو اني قد جعلته سيدا لك ودفعت اليه جميع اخوته عبيدا وعضدته بحنطة وخمر. فماذا اصنع اليك يا ابني.

³⁸And Esau said unto his father, Hast thou but one blessing, my father? bless me, even me also, O my father. And Esau lifted up his voice, and wept.

³⁸فقال عيسو لابيه ألك بركة واحدة فقط يا ابي. باركني انا ايضا يا ابي. ورفع عيسو صوته وبكى.

³⁹And Isaac his father answered and said unto him, Behold, thy dwelling shall be the fatness of the earth, and of the dew of heaven from above;

³⁹فاجاب اسحق ابوه وقال له هوذا بلا دسم الارض يكون مسكنك. وبلا ندى السماء من فوق.

⁴⁰And by thy sword shalt thou live, and shalt serve thy brother; and it shall come to pass when thou shalt have the dominion, that thou shalt break his yoke from off thy neck.

⁴⁰وبسيفك تعيش. ولاخيك تستعبد. ولكن يكون حينما تجمح انك تكسر نيره عن عنقك

⁴¹And Esau hated Jacob because of the blessing wherewith his father blessed him: and Esau said in his heart, The days of mourning for my father are at hand; then will I slay my brother Jacob.

⁴¹فحقد عيسو على يعقوب من اجل البركة التي باركه بها ابوه. وقال عيسو في قلبه قربت ايام مناحة ابي. فاقتل يعقوب اخي.

⁴²And these words of Esau her elder son were told to Rebekah: and she sent and called Jacob her younger son, and said unto him, Behold, thy brother Esau, as touching thee, doth comfort himself, purposing to kill thee.

⁴²فأخبرت رفقة بكلام عيسو ابنها الاكبر. فارسلت ودعت يعقوب ابنها الاصغر وقالت له هوذا عيسو اخوك متسلّ من جهتك بانه يقتلك.

⁴³Now therefore, my son, obey my voice; arise, flee thou to Laban my brother to Haran;

⁴³فالآن يا ابني اسمع لقولي وقم اهرب الى اخي لابان الى حاران.

⁴⁴And tarry with him a few days, until thy brother's fury turn away;

⁴⁴وأقم عنده اياما قليلة حتى يرتد سخط اخيك.

⁴⁵Until thy brother's anger turn away from thee, and he forget that which thou hast done to him: then I will send, and fetch thee from thence: why should I be deprived also of you both in one day?

⁴⁵حتى يرتد غضب اخيك عنك وينسى ما صنعت به. ثم ارسل فآخذك من هناك. لماذا اعدم اثنيكما في يوم واحد

⁴⁶And Rebekah said to Isaac, I am weary of my life because of the daughters of Heth: if Jacob take a wife of the daughters of Heth, such as these which are of the daughters of the land, what good shall my life do me?

⁴⁶وقالت رفقة لاسحق مللت حياتي من اجل بنات حثّ. ان كان يعقوب يأخذ زوجة من بنات حثّ مثل هؤلاء من بنات الارض فلماذا لي حياة
