¹Huan, hichi ahia, Isaak a hong teka, khomu theilou khopa a mit a hong mialin, a tapa upajaw Esau a sama, a kiangah, ka tapa, achia: huan, aman a kiangah, hiai ah ka om, achia.

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.

²Huan, aman, ngaiin, ka tek mahmaha, ka sih ni ding lah ka theikei a.

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

³Huchiin tuin hehpihtakin na vanzat, na thal bawm leh na thalpeu, tawi inla, va gamvak inla, sakhi hon vamat sakin;

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

⁴Huan, kasih ma a kon vualjawl theihna dingin, ka deihlam takin meh dingin limtakin honbawl sak inla, ka nek ding ka kiangah hontawi in, achia.

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.

⁵Huan, Isaakin a tapa Esau a houpih lai Rebekain a naja a. Huan, Esau sakhi benga honpo dingin a gamvakta hi.

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

⁶Huan, Rebekain, a tapa Jakob kiangah, ngaiin, na pan na u Esau kianga thu agen ka ja,

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

⁷Sakhi honpuakin, ka neka, ka sih ma a Toupa ma a kon vualzawlna dingin, meh limtakin honbawl sakin, chiin.

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

⁸Huchiin, ka tapa, tuin kon thupiak bangin ka thu juiin.

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

⁹Gan hon lakah vahoh inla, kelnou nih hoih tak, huai a kipan in, honla in; huchiin huai a deihlam takin na pa adingin meh limtakin ka na bawl ding:

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:

¹⁰Huan, a sih ma a honvualjawl sak dingin, a nek dingin na pa kiangah na vahohpih ding ahi, chiin, a gen a.

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

¹¹Huan, Jakobin, a nu Rebeka kiangah, ngaiin, ka u Esau mi mulhau ahia, kei bel mi nel ka hi,

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

¹²Ka pan a honna jawt vialvial kha dinga, huchiin amah adingin khempa bang ka honghi dinga, vualjawl gentaklouhin hamsiat kizon lel ka hi kei ding maw, achia.

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.

¹³Huan, a nu in, a kiangah, ka tapa, na hamsiat muh ding ka tungah om hen: ka thu jui inla, hon valakin, achia.

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

¹⁴Huan, a kuana, a vala a, a nu kiangah a honpai piha huchiin, a nu in a pa deihlam takin meh limtakin a bawl hi.

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

¹⁵Huan, Rebekain a tapa upa Esau puansilh hoihtak, inna a kianga om a la a, a tapa naupang jaw Jakob a silhsak a:

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:

¹⁶Huan, kelnou vunte leng a khut ah leh a ngawng nelna khawngah a phah a;

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

¹⁷Huan, meh limtak leh tanghou a bawlte a tapa Jakob khut ah a pia hi.

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

¹⁸Huan, amah a pa kiangah a hoha, Pa aw, achia: huan, aman, hiai ah ka om; ka tapa, kua zopen na hia? achia.

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

¹⁹Huan, Jakobin, a pa kiangah, na tapa upajaw Esau ka hi; non sawl bangin ka hihkhinta: hehpihtakin thou inla, non vualjawlna dingin tu inla, ka sakhi sa nein, achia.

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.

²⁰Huan, Isaakin, a tapa kiangah, ka tapa, bangchidan ahia, hong man gang na tel chia? A chia.

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.

²¹Huan, Isaakin, Jakob kiangah, ka tapa, hehpihtakin hongnai dih ve, ka honna jawt vialvial ding, ka tapa Esau na hina na ngel hiam, achia.

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.

²²Huan, Jakobin a pa Isaak a vanaih a; huan, aman a najawt vialviala, a aw lah Jakob aw hiven, a khut khawng lah Esau khut hiven achia.

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.

²³Huchiin, a u Esau khut bangin a khut a mul jiakin amah a theikei hi: huchiin a vualjawlta hi.

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

²⁴Huan, ka tapa Esau ngei na hi maw? achia. Huan, aman, hi e, a chi hi.

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

²⁵Huan, aman, hontawi naiin, huchiin ka hon vualjawlna dingin ka tapa sakhi sa ka nane ding, achia. Huan, a hontawi naia, a neta a: uain leng a honlaka, huai leng a dawn hi.

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.

²⁶Huan, a pa Isaakin, a kiangah, ka tapa, hongnai in, hon tawpin, achia.

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

²⁷Huan, a vanaih a, a tawpa, huan, aman a puansilh gim a ja a, a vualjawl hi, enin, ka tapa gim Toupa vualjawl gam gim bang ahi:

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:

²⁸Huchiin, Pathianin van daitui leh, lei hoihna leh, buh tampi leh uain tampi hon pia hen:

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

²⁹Nam tuamtuam ten na nasem u henla, chi tuamtuam ten chibai honbuk uhen: na unaute tungah kumpipain om inla; na nu taten chibai honbuk uhen: honhamsiatte hamsiatin om uhenla, honvualjawl peuhmah vualjawlin om uhen, a chi hi.

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.

³⁰Huan, hichi ahia, Isaak in Jakob a vualjawl zoh takin, Jakob a pa Isaak kianga kipan a pawt khe man lela, a u Esau sabeng a hong tunga.

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.

³¹Huan, aman leng mehlim takin a bawla, a pa kiangah, Pa, thou inla, non vualjawlna dingin na tapa sakhi sa nein, achia.

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.

³²Huan, a pa Isaakin, a kiangah, kua na hia? Achia. Huan, aman, na tapa, na tapa upajaw, Esau ka hi, achia.

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

³³Huchiin Isaak nakpiin a ling zungzunga, sakhi man, ka kianga a sa hontawi, na hongtun ma a ka nanek khit veka, ka vualjawlpa kua ahia? Ahi, amah vualjawlin a omta himhim ding achia.

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.

³⁴Esauin a pa thugen a jakin nakpi tak leh khase mahmahin a kapta a, a pa kiangah, pa aw, kei, kei leng honvualjawl mahmah ve aw, achi hi.

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.

³⁵Huan, aman, na nauin a hong khema, nang vualjawlna a honlaksakta hi, achia.

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

³⁶Huan, aman, a min dia Jakob a chih uh dik mahmah hi lou hia? Nihvei a honsuanta; ka ta masa hihna a honlaksaka; huan, ngaiin, tuin kei vualjawlna a honlaksak nawnta hi, a chi a. Huan, amah mahin, vualjawlna kei dia honsit saklou maw? a chi a.

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?

³⁷Huan, Isaakin a dawnga, Esau kiangah, Ngaiin, amah na kumpipain ka bawla, a unau tengteng leng a sikha dingin ka pe veka, buh leh uain leng ka vakta; nang a din, ka tapa, bang honhihsak ding ka hia? a chi a.

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?

³⁸Huan, Esauin, a pa kiangah, Pa, vualjawlna khat kia ahi maw na neih? Pa aw, kei leng honvualjawl mahmah ve, achia.

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.

³⁹Huan, Esau ngaihtakin a kapta, huan, a pa Isaakin a dawnga, a kiangah, ngaiin, na omna ding lei hoihna tak leh, tunglama kipana van daitui kiakna ah ahi, na om ding;

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;

⁴⁰Na namsauin ahi, na hin ding, na nau na leng na sem ding; huan, hichi a dinga, na kitutkhiak hun chiangin a hakkol na ngawnga kipanin na singkhe ta ding, a chi a.

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.

⁴¹Huan, Pa in a vualjawl jiak in Esauin Jakob a mudah a: huan, Esauin a lungsim in, ka pa sunni ding a nai ta a, huai hun chiangin ka nau Jakob ka that mai ding, a chi a.

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.

⁴²Huan, atapa upa jaw Esau thugen Rebeka kiangah a hilh ua; huchiin, mi a sawla, atapa naupang jaw Jakob a sama, a kiangah, ngaiin, na u Esau in na tungthu ah, nangmah honhihlup tumin ka kinem ahi.

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.

⁴³Huchiin, ka tapa tu in ka thumangin; thou inla, Haran khua a ka sanggampa Laban kiangah taimangin;

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

⁴⁴Na u hehna a daih mateng a kiangah ni bangjah hiam va om phot in:

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

⁴⁵Na u hehna na tunga adaih a, a tunga na thilhih a mangngilh ma teng: Huan, adaih a, a mangngilh chiangin mi ka sawldinga, huai a kipan ka hong pi khesak ding: bang dingin ni khat a na nih ua hon tan ding ka hia? a chi a.Huan, Rebeka in, Isaak kiangah, Heth tanu te jiakin hin ka chimtak mahmah: Jakobin, hiai gam nungak, hiai Heth tanu te laka te bang, ji dia a neih nawn ngial le jaw, kei dingin hin bang a phatuam dia? A chi a.

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?

⁴⁶Huan, Rebeka in, Isaak kiangah, Heth tanu te jiakin hin ka chimtak mahmah: Jakobin, hiai gam nungak, hiai Heth tanu te laka te bang, ji dia a neih nawn ngial le jaw, kei dingin hin bang a phatuam dia? A chi a.

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?
