¹A stalo sa, keď sa zostarel Izák, a jeho oči zoslably tak, že nevidel, zavolal Ezava, svojho staršieho syna, a riekol mu. Môj synu. A on mu odpovedal: Tu som, otče.

¹And it cometh to pass that Isaac [is] aged, and his eyes are too dim for seeing, and he calleth Esau his elder son, and saith unto him, `My son;` and he saith unto him, `Here [am] I.`

²A riekol: Nože hľa, som už starý; neviem dňa svojej smrti.

²And he saith, `Lo, I pray thee, I have become aged, I have not known the day of my death;

³Tak teraz vezmi, prosím, svoju zbraň, svoj túl a svoje lučište, a vyjdi na pole a ulov mi zverinu.

³and now, take up, I pray thee, thy instruments, thy quiver, and thy bow, and go out to the field, and hunt for me provision,

⁴A priprav mi chutný pokrm, aký mám rád; dones mi ho, a budem jesť, aby ťa požehnala moja duša, prv ako zomriem.

⁴and make for me tasteful things, [such] as I have loved, and bring in to me, and I do eat, so that my soul doth bless thee before I die.`

⁵Ale Rebeka počúvala, keď to hovoril Izák Ezavovi, svojmu synovi. A Ezav odišiel na pole uloviť zverinu, aby ju doniesol.

⁵And Rebekah is hearkening while Isaac is speaking unto Esau his son; and Esau goeth to the field to hunt provision — to bring in;

⁶A Rebeka povedala Jakobovi, svojmu synovi, a riekla: Hľa, počula som tvojho otca hovoriť Ezavovi, tvojmu bratovi, ktorému povedal:

⁶and Rebekah hath spoken unto Jacob her son, saying, `Lo, I have heard thy father speaking unto Esau thy brother, saying,

⁷Dones mi zverinu a priprav mi chutný pokrm, a budem jesť a potom ťa požehnám pred Hospodinom, prv ako zomriem.

⁷Bring for me provision, and make for me tasteful things, and I do eat, and bless thee before Jehovah before my death.

⁸A tak teraz, môj synu, poslúchni na môj hlas a urob to, čo ti rozkazujem.

⁸`And now, my son, hearken to my voice, to that which I am commanding thee:

⁹Nože idi ku stádu a vezmi a dones mi odtiaľ dvoje pekných kozliat, a pripravím z nich chutný pokrm pre tvojho otca, jaký má rád.

⁹Go, I pray thee, unto the flock, and take for me from thence two good kids of the goats, and I make them tasteful things for thy father, [such] as he hath loved;

¹⁰Potom zanesieš svojmu otcovi, a zjie, aby ťa požehnal, prv ako zomrie.

¹⁰and thou hast taken in to thy father, and he hath eaten, so that his soul doth bless thee before his death.

¹¹A Jakob povedal Rebeke, svojej matke: Hľa, Ezav, môj brat, je chlpatý človek, a ja som hladký.

¹¹And Jacob saith unto Rebekah his mother, `Lo, Esau my brother [is] a hairy man, and I a smooth man,

¹²Môj otec ma môže ohmatať a potom budem v jeho očiach ako podvodník a uvediem na seba zlorečenstvo a nie požehnanie.

¹²it may be my father doth feel me, and I have been in his eyes as a deceiver, and have brought upon me disesteem, and not a blessing;`

¹³Na to mu povedala jeho matka: Nech prijde na mňa tvoje zlorečenstvo, môj synu, len poslúchni, čo hovorím, a idi, vezmi a dones mi.

¹³and his mother saith to him, `On me thy disesteem, my son; only hearken to my voice, and go, take for me.`

¹⁴A tak išiel a vzal a doniesol svojej matke, a jeho matka pripravila chutný pokrm, aký mal rád jeho otec.

¹⁴And he goeth, and taketh, and bringeth to his mother, and his mother maketh tasteful things, [such] as his father hath loved;

¹⁵A Rebeka vzala šaty Ezavove, šaty svojho staršieho syna, tie najlepšie, ktoré mala u seba v dome, a obliekla do nich Jakoba svojho mladšieho syna.

¹⁵and Rebekah taketh the desirable garments of Esau her elder son, which [are] with her in the house, and doth put on Jacob her younger son;

¹⁶A kožky z kozleniec obvliekla na jeho ruky a na hladké miesto jeho hrdla.

¹⁶and the skins of the kids of the goats she hath put on his hands, and on the smooth of his neck,

¹⁷A dala chutný pokrm a chlieb, to, čo bola pripravila, do ruky Jakoba, svojho syna.

¹⁷and she giveth the tasteful things, and the bread which she hath made, into the hand of Jacob her son.

¹⁸A prišiel k svojmu otcovi a povedal: Môj otče! A on odpovedal: Tu som. Kto si ty, môj synu?

¹⁸And he cometh in unto his father, and saith, `My father;` and he saith, `Here [am] I; who [art] thou, my son?`

¹⁹A Jakob povedal svojmu otcovi: Ja som Ezav, tvoj prvorodený. Urobil som tak, ako si mi hovoril. Vstaň, prosím, sadni si a jedz z toho, čo som ulovil, aby ma požehnala tvoja duša.

¹⁹And Jacob saith unto his father, `I [am] Esau thy first-born; I have done as thou hast spoken unto me; rise, I pray thee, sit, and eat of my provision, so that thy soul doth bless me.`

²⁰A Izák povedal svojmu synovi: Čo to, že si tak rýchle našiel, môj synu? A on odpovedal: Lebo Hospodin, tvoj Bôh, to spôsobil, aby mi nadišlo.

²⁰And Isaac saith unto his son, `What [is] this thou hast hasted to find, my son?` and he saith, `That which Jehovah thy God hath caused to come before me.`

²¹A Izák povedal Jakobovi: Nože poď bližšie, aby som ťa ohmatal, môj synu, či si ty môj syn Ezav či nie.

²¹And Isaac saith unto Jacob, `Come nigh, I pray thee, and I feel thee, my son, whether thou [art] he, my son Esau, or not.`

²²A Jakob pristúpil k Izákovi, svojmu otcovi, ktorý ho ohmatal a povedal: Hlas je Jakobov, a ruky sú ruky Ezavove.

²²And Jacob cometh nigh unto Isaac his father, and he feeleth him, and saith, `The voice [is] the voice of Jacob, and the hands hands of Esau.`

²³A nepoznal ho, lebo jeho ruky boly jako ruky Ezavove, jeho bratove, chlpaté, a požehnal ho.

²³And he hath not discerned him, for his hands have been hairy, as the hands of Esau his brother, and he blesseth him,

²⁴A povedal: Či si to ty, môj synu, Ezave? A odpovedal: Som.

²⁴and saith, `Thou art he — my son Esau?` and he saith, `I [am].`

²⁵Vtedy povedal: Podaj mi, aby som jedol z lovu svojho syna, aby ťa potom požehnala moja duša. A podal mu, a jedol. A doniesol mu aj vína, a pil.

²⁵And he saith, `Bring nigh to me, and I do eat of my son`s provision, so that my soul doth bless thee;` and he bringeth nigh to him, and he eateth; and he bringeth to him wine, and he drinketh.

²⁶A Izák, jeho otec, mu povedal: Nože pristúp sem a bozkaj ma, môj synu!

²⁶And Isaac his father saith to him, `Come nigh, I pray thee, and kiss me, my son;`

²⁷A pristúpil a bozkal ho. Tu zavoňal vôňu jeho šiat a požehnal ho a riekol: Pozri, vôňa môjho syna je ako vôňa poľa, ktoré požehnal Hospodin.

²⁷and he cometh nigh, and kisseth him, and he smelleth the fragrance of his garments, and blesseth him, and saith, `See, the fragrance of my son [is] as the fragrance of a field which Jehovah hath blessed;

²⁸Nechže ti dá Bôh z rosy neba a zo všelijakého tuku zeme, hojnosť obilia a hroznovej šťavy.

²⁸and God doth give to thee of the dew of heaven, and of the fatness of the earth, and abundance of corn and wine;

²⁹Nech ti slúžia národy a klaňajú sa ti ľudia! Buď pánom svojim bratom, a nech sa ti klaňajú synovia tvojej matky! Ten, kto by ti zlorečil, nech je zlorečený, a ten, kto by ti žehnal, nech je požehnaný!

²⁹peoples serve thee, and nations bow themselves to thee, be thou mighty over thy brethren, and the sons of thy mother bow themselves to thee; those who curse thee [are] cursed, and those who bless thee [are] blessed.`

³⁰A stalo sa hneď, ako prestal Izák žehnať Jakoba, len priam čo bol vyšiel Jakob od Izáka, svojho otca, že prišiel Ezav, jeho brat, zo svojho lovu.

³⁰And it cometh to pass, as Isaac hath finished blessing Jacob, and Jacob is only just going out from the presence of Isaac his father, that Esau his brother hath come in from his hunting;

³¹A bol aj on pripravil chutný pokrm a doniesol svojmu otcovi a povedal mu: Nech vstane môj otec a jie z lovu svojho syna, aby ma požehnala tvoja duša!

³¹and he also maketh tasteful things, and bringeth to his father, and saith to his father, `Let my father arise, and eat of his son`s provision, so that thy soul doth bless me.`

³²A Izák, jeho otec, mu povedal: Kto si ty? A odpovedal: Ja som tvoj syn, tvoj prvorodený, Ezav.

³²And Isaac his father saith to him, `Who [art] thou?` and he saith, `I [am] thy son, thy first-born, Esau;`

³³Vtedy sa zľakol Izák prenáramne a povedal: Kde kto je to, ktorý ulovil zverinu a doniesol mi? A ja som jedol zo všetkého prv ako si prišiel, a požehnal som ho, aj bude požehnaný!

³³and Isaac trembleth a very great trembling, and saith, `Who, now, [is] he who hath provided provision, and bringeth in to me, and I eat of all before thou comest in, and I bless him? — yea, blessed is he.`

³⁴Keď počul Ezav slová svojho otca, skríkol velikým krikom a horkým prenáramne a povedal svojmu otcovi: Požehnaj i mňa, môj otče!

³⁴When Esau heareth the words of his father, then he crieth a very great and bitter cry, and saith to his father, `Bless me, me also, O my father;`

³⁵A on odpovedal: Tvoj brat prišiel so ľsťou a vzal tvoje požehnanie.

³⁵and he saith, `Thy brother hath come with subtilty, and taketh thy blessing.`

³⁶A povedal: Správne nazvali jeho meno Jakob, lebo ma toto už druhý raz oklamal: vzal moje prvorodenstvo a hľa, teraz vzal i moje požehnanie. A dodal: Či si pre mňa neodložil požehnania?

³⁶And he saith, `Is it because [one] called his name Jacob that he doth take me by the heel these two times? my birthright he hath taken; and lo, now, he hath taken my blessing;` he saith also, `Hast thou not kept back a blessing for me?`

³⁷Izák odpovedal a riekol Ezavovi: Hľa, učinil som ho pánom nad tebou a všetkých jeho bratov som mu dal za služobníkov a zaopatril som ho obilím a šťavou z hrozna. A tebe kde čo učiním, môj synu?

³⁷And Isaac answereth and saith to Esau, `Lo, a mighty one have I set him over thee, and all his brethren have I given to him for servants, and [with] corn and wine have I sustained him; and for thee now, what shall I do, my son?`

³⁸A Ezav povedal svojmu otcovi: Či máš len to jedno požehnanie, môj otče? Požehnaj i mňa, môj otče! Potom pozdvihol Ezav svoj hlas a plakal.

³⁸And Esau saith unto his father, `One blessing hast thou my father? bless me, me also, O my father;` and Esau lifteth up his voice, and weepeth.

³⁹A Izák, jeho otec, odpovedal a riekol mu: Hľa, ďaleko od žírnych polí zeme bude tvoje obydlie, a od nebeskej rosy, ktorú dáva Bôh s hora.

³⁹And Isaac his father answereth and saith unto him, `Lo, of the fatness of the earth is thy dwelling, and of the dew of the heavens from above;

⁴⁰A budeš žiť na svojom meči a budeš slúžiť svojmu bratovi, ale bude raz, keď budeš panovať, že polámeš jeho jarmo a shodíš ho so svojej šije.

⁴⁰and by thy sword dost thou live, and thy brother dost thou serve; and it hath come to pass when thou rulest, that thou hast broken his yoke from off thy neck.`

⁴¹A Ezav zjavne nenávidel Jakoba pre požehnanie, ktorým ho požehnal jeho otec. A Ezav povedal vo svojom srdci: Priblížia sa dni smútku za môjho otca, a zabijem Jakoba, svojho brata.

⁴¹And Esau hateth Jacob, because of the blessing with which his father blessed him, and Esau saith in his heart, `The days of mourning [for] my father draw near, and I slay Jacob my brother.`

⁴²A oznámené boly Rebeke slová Ezava, jej staršieho syna. Preto pošlúc zavolala Jakoba, svojho mladšieho syna a povedala mu: Hľa, Ezav, tvoj brat, sa teší ohľadne teba, že ťa zabije.

⁴²And the words of Esau her elder son are declared to Rebekah, and she sendeth and calleth for Jacob her younger son, and saith unto him, `Lo, Esau thy brother is comforting himself in regard to thee — to slay thee;

⁴³Preto teraz, môj synu, poslúchni na môj hlas a vstaň a uteč k Lábanovi, môjmu bratovi do Chárana.

⁴³and now, my son, hearken to my voice, and rise, flee for thyself unto Laban my brother, to Haran,

⁴⁴A budeš bývať u neho nejaký čas, dokiaľ sa neodvráti prchlivosť tvojho brata.

⁴⁴and thou hast dwelt with him some days, till thy brother`s fury turn back,

⁴⁵Až sa zase odvráti hnev tvojho brata od teba, a zabudne na to, čo si mu urobil, potom pošlem po teba a vezmem ťa odtiaľ. Prečo vás mám utratiť oboch v jeden deň!

⁴⁵till thy brother`s anger turn back from thee, and he hath forgotten that which thou hast done to him, and I have sent and taken thee from thence; why am I bereaved even of you both the same day?`

⁴⁶A Rebeka povedala Izákovi: Protiví sa mi život pre dcéry Hetove. Jestli si aj Jakob vezme ženu z dcér Hetových, ako sú tieto, z dcér tejto zeme, načo mi potom život?!

⁴⁶And Rebekah saith unto Isaac, `I have been disgusted with my life because of the presence of the daughters of Heth; if Jacob take a wife of the daughters of Heth, like these — from the daughters of the land — why do I live?`
