2Wathi: “Bheka, sengimdala, angilwazi usuku lokufa kwami.”
3Manje thatha izikhali zakho, umgodla wakho nomnsalo wakho, uye endle, ungithathele inyamazane;
4Ungenzele ukudla okumnandi njengokukuthanda kwami, ukulethe kimi, ngidle; ukuze umphefumulo wami ukubusise ngingakafi.
5URebeka wezwa u-Isaka ekhuluma no-Esawu indodana yakhe; u-Esawu waya endle ukuyozingela inyamazane, ayilethe.
6URebeka wakhuluma kuJakobe indodana yakhe, wathi: “Bheka, ngizwile uyihlo ekhuluma no-Esawu umnewenu, ethi:
7Ngilethele inyamazane, ungenzele isiphundu, ukuze ngidle, ngikubusise phambi kukaJehova ngingakafi.
8Manje-ke, ndodana yami, lalela izwi lami njengalokho engikuyala ngakho.
9Manje yana emhlambini, ungithathele khona izinqama ezimbili ezinhle; ngizamenzela uyihlo ukudla okumnandi njengokuthanda kwakhe.
10Kumelwe ukuyise kuyihlo, ukuze adle, futhi ukuze akubusise ngaphambi kokuba afe.
11UJakobe wathi kuRebeka unina: “Bheka, u-Esawu umfowethu uyindoda enoboya, mina ngiyindoda ebushelelezi.”
12Mhlawumbe ubaba uyakungiphatha, ngibonakale kuye njengomkhohlisi; ngiyakuletha phezu kwami isiqalekiso, kungabi yisibusiso.
13Unina wayesethi kuye: “Mayela kimi isiqalekiso sakho, ndodana yami; vele ulalele izwi lami uhambe ungithathele wona.
14Wayithatha, wayiyisa kunina; unina wenza inyama emnandi njengokuthandwa kukayise.
15URebeka wayesethatha izingubo ezinhle ku-Esawu indodana yakhe enkulu, owayenaye endlini, wamembathisa uJakobe indodana yakhe encane.
16Wabeka izikhumba zezinqama ezandleni zakhe nasentanyeni yakhe ebushelelezi.
17Wanika uJakobe indodana yakhe inyama emnandi nesinkwa ayesilungisile.
18Waya kuyise, wathi: “Baba! Wathi: “Ngilapha; ungubani ndodana yami.
19UJakobe wayesethi kuyise: “Ngingu-Esawu izibulo lakho; Ngenza njengokungiyala kwakho: Vuka, uhlale phansi, udle inyamazane yami, ukuze umphefumulo wakho ungibusise.
20U-Isaka wayesethi endodaneni yakhe: “Uyithole kanjani masinyane kangaka, ndodana yami na?” Wathi: “Ngokuba uJehova uNkulunkulu wakho uyilethile kimi.”
21U-Isaka wayesethi kuJakobe: “Sondela ukuba ngikuthinte, ndodana yami, ukuthi uyindodana yami u-Esawu noma qha.”
22UJakobe wasondela ku-Isaka uyise; wamphatha, wathi: “Izwi liyizwi likaJakobe, kepha izandla ziyizandla zika-Esawu.”
23Akamehlukanisanga, ngokuba izandla zakhe zazinoboya njengezandla zomnewabo u-Esawu; ngalokho wambusisa.
24Wathi: “Wena uyindodana yami u-Esawu na?” Wathi: “Nginguye.”
25Wathi: “Letha kimi, ngidle inyamazane yendodana yami, ukuze umphefumulo wami ukubusise.” Wakuyisa kuye, wadla; wamlethela iwayini, waphuza.
26Uyise u-Isaka wayesethi kuye: “Sondela manje, ungange, ndodana yami.”
27Wasondela, wamanga, wezwa iphunga lezingubo zakhe, wambusisa, wathi: “Bheka, iphunga lendodana yami linjengephunga lensimu eyibusisile uJehova.”
28Ngakho-ke uNkulunkulu ukunika amazolo ezulu namafutha omhlaba kanye nenala kakolweni newayini.
29Abantu mabakukhonze, izizwe zikhothame phambi kwakho; phatha abafowenu, amadodana kanyoko akhothamele; uqalekisiwe okuqalekisayo, ubusisiwe okubusisayo.
30Kwathi u-Isaka eseqedile ukumbusisa uJakobe, uJakobe engakasuki ebusweni buka-Isaka uyise, wafika u-Esawu umnewabo evela ekuzingeleni kwakhe.
31Naye wenza ukudla okumnandi, wakusa kuyise, wathi kuyise: “Ubaba makavuke adle inyamazane yendodana yakhe, ukuze umphefumulo wakho ungibusise.”
32Uyise uIsaka wasesithi kuye: Ungubani? Wathi: “Ngiyindodana yakho, izibulo lakho u-Esawu;
33U-Isaka wayesethuthumela kakhulu, wathi: “Ngubani na?” uphi owabamba inyamazane, wayiletha kimi, ngadla kukho konke ungakafiki, ngambusisa na? yebo, futhi uyobusiswa.
34Kwathi u-Esawu esizwa amazwi kayise, wakhala ngokukhala okukhulu okumunyu, wathi kuyise: “Ngibusise nami, baba!”
35Wathi: “Umfowenu ufike ngobuqili, wathatha isibusiso sakho.”
36Wathi: “Akabizwanga ngokuthi uJakobe na?” ngoba ungikhohlisile kabili: wathatha ubuzibulo bami; bheka, manje usethathile isibusiso sami. Wathi: “Awungigcinelanga isibusiso na?”
37U-Isaka waphendula, wathi ku-Esawu: “Bheka, ngimenze inkosi yakho, futhi ngimnike bonke abafowabo babe yizinceku; futhi ngamsekela ngokolweni nangewayini; ngenzeni kuwe manje ndodana yami?
38Wathi u-Esawu kuyise: “Baba, sinye nje isibusiso sakho na?” ngibusise nami, hawu baba! U-Esawu waphakamisa izwi lakhe, wakhala.
39Uyise u-Isaka waphendula, wathi kuye: “Bheka, indawo yakho yokuhlala iyakuba ngamanoni omhlaba namazolo ezulu phezulu;
40Uyakuphila ngenkemba yakho, umkhonze umfowenu; uma ubusa, uyakwephula ijoka lakhe lisuke entanyeni yakho.
41U-Esawu wamzonda uJakobe ngenxa yesibusiso uyise ambusise ngaso; u-Esawu wathi enhliziyweni yakhe: “Izinsuku zokulilela ubaba sezisondele; khona ngizambulala umfowethu uJakobe.
