⁸ Manje-ke, ndodana yami, lalela izwi lami njengalokho engikuyala ngakho.

⁹ Manje yana emhlambini, ungithathele khona izinqama ezimbili ezinhle; ngizamenzela uyihlo ukudla okumnandi njengokuthanda kwakhe.

¹⁰ Kumelwe ukuyise kuyihlo, ukuze adle, futhi ukuze akubusise ngaphambi kokuba afe.

¹⁵ URebeka wayesethatha izingubo ezinhle ku-Esawu indodana yakhe enkulu, owayenaye endlini, wamembathisa uJakobe indodana yakhe encane.

¹⁶ Wabeka izikhumba zezinqama ezandleni zakhe nasentanyeni yakhe ebushelelezi.

¹⁷ Wanika uJakobe indodana yakhe inyama emnandi nesinkwa ayesilungisile.

¹⁸ Waya kuyise, wathi: “Baba! Wathi: “Ngilapha; ungubani ndodana yami.

¹⁹ UJakobe wayesethi kuyise: “Ngingu-Esawu izibulo lakho; Ngenza njengokungiyala kwakho: Vuka, uhlale phansi, udle inyamazane yami, ukuze umphefumulo wakho ungibusise.

²⁰ U-Isaka wayesethi endodaneni yakhe: “Uyithole kanjani masinyane kangaka, ndodana yami na?” Wathi: “Ngokuba uJehova uNkulunkulu wakho uyilethile kimi.”

²¹ U-Isaka wayesethi kuJakobe: “Sondela ukuba ngikuthinte, ndodana yami, ukuthi uyindodana yami u-Esawu noma qha.”

²² UJakobe wasondela ku-Isaka uyise; wamphatha, wathi: “Izwi liyizwi likaJakobe, kepha izandla ziyizandla zika-Esawu.”

²³ Akamehlukanisanga, ngokuba izandla zakhe zazinoboya njengezandla zomnewabo u-Esawu; ngalokho wambusisa.

²⁴ Wathi: “Wena uyindodana yami u-Esawu na?” Wathi: “Nginguye.”

²⁵ Wathi: “Letha kimi, ngidle inyamazane yendodana yami, ukuze umphefumulo wami ukubusise.” Wakuyisa kuye, wadla; wamlethela iwayini, waphuza.

²⁶ Uyise u-Isaka wayesethi kuye: “Sondela manje, ungange, ndodana yami.”

²⁷ Wasondela, wamanga, wezwa iphunga lezingubo zakhe, wambusisa, wathi: “Bheka, iphunga lendodana yami linjengephunga lensimu eyibusisile uJehova.”

²⁸ Ngakho-ke uNkulunkulu ukunika amazolo ezulu namafutha omhlaba kanye nenala kakolweni newayini.

³⁰ Kwathi u-Isaka eseqedile ukumbusisa uJakobe, uJakobe engakasuki ebusweni buka-Isaka uyise, wafika u-Esawu umnewabo evela ekuzingeleni kwakhe.

³¹ Naye wenza ukudla okumnandi, wakusa kuyise, wathi kuyise: “Ubaba makavuke adle inyamazane yendodana yakhe, ukuze umphefumulo wakho ungibusise.”

³² Uyise uIsaka wasesithi kuye: Ungubani? Wathi: “Ngiyindodana yakho, izibulo lakho u-Esawu;

³³ U-Isaka wayesethuthumela kakhulu, wathi: “Ngubani na?” uphi owabamba inyamazane, wayiletha kimi, ngadla kukho konke ungakafiki, ngambusisa na? yebo, futhi uyobusiswa.

³⁷ U-Isaka waphendula, wathi ku-Esawu: “Bheka, ngimenze inkosi yakho, futhi ngimnike bonke abafowabo babe yizinceku; futhi ngamsekela ngokolweni nangewayini; ngenzeni kuwe manje ndodana yami?

³⁸ Wathi u-Esawu kuyise: “Baba, sinye nje isibusiso sakho na?” ngibusise nami, hawu baba! U-Esawu waphakamisa izwi lakhe, wakhala.

³⁹ Uyise u-Isaka waphendula, wathi kuye: “Bheka, indawo yakho yokuhlala iyakuba ngamanoni omhlaba namazolo ezulu phezulu;
