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 came to pass, that when Isaac was old, and his eyes were dim, so that he could not see, he called Esau his elder son, and said unto him, My son. And he said unto him, Here am I.

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

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

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

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

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

⁴And make me savory food, such as I love, and bring it to me, that I may eat. That my soul may 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 heard when Isaac spake to Esau his son. And Esau went to the field to hunt for venison, and to bring it.

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

⁶And Rebekah spake unto Jacob her son, saying, Behold, I heard thy father speak 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 me venison, and make me savory food, that I may eat, and bless thee before Jehovah before my death.

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

⁸Now therefore, my son, obey my voice according to that which I command 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 now to the flock, and fetch me from thence two good kids of the goats. And I will make them savory food for thy father, such as he loveth.

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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 said unto him, Upon me be thy curse, my son. Only obey my voice, and go fetch me them.

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

¹⁴And he went, and fetched, and brought them to his mother. And his mother made savory food, such as his father 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 took the goodly garments of Esau her elder son, which were with her in the house, and put them upon Jacob her younger son.

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

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

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

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

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

¹⁸And he came unto his father, and said, My father. And he said, 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 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.

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 said unto his son, How is it that thou hast found it so quickly, my son? And he said, Because Jehovah thy God sent me good speed.

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

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.

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

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.

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

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

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

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

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

²⁶And his father Isaac said unto him, Come near now, 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 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 Jehovah hath blessed.

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

²⁸And God five thee of the dew of heaven, And of the fatness of the earth, And plenty of grain and new 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!

²⁹Let peoples 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 every one that blesseth thee.

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 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.

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

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

³²And Isaac his father said unto him, Who art thou? And he said, 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 trembled very exceedingly, and said, Who then 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.

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

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

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

³⁵And he said, Thy brother came with guile, and hath taken away 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 said, Is not he rightly name Jacob? for he hath supplanted me these two time. 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?

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 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 grain and new wine have I sustained him. And what then shall I do for thee, 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 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.

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 answered and said unto him, Behold, of the fatness of the earth shall be thy dwelling, And of the dew of heaven 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 shalt thou live, and thou shalt serve thy brother. And it shall come to pass, when thou shalt break loose, That thou shalt shake 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 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.

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 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.

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

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

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

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

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!

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 bereaved of you both in one 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 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, of the daughters of the land, what good shall my life do me?
