创世记 27-28
Chinese Union Version Modern Punctuation (Simplified)
27 以撒年老，眼睛昏花，不能看见，就叫了他大儿子以扫来，说：“我儿！”以扫说：“我在这里。” 2 他说：“我如今老了，不知道哪一天死。 3 现在拿你的器械，就是箭囊和弓，往田野去为我打猎， 4 照我所爱的做成美味，拿来给我吃，使我在未死之先给你祝福。”
5 以撒对他儿子以扫说话，利百加也听见了。以扫往田野去打猎，要得野味带来。 6 利百加就对她儿子雅各说：“我听见你父亲对你哥哥以扫说： 7 ‘你去把野兽带来，做成美味给我吃，我好在未死之先，在耶和华面前给你祝福。’ 8 现在，我儿，你要照着我所吩咐你的，听从我的话。 9 你到羊群里去，给我拿两只肥山羊羔来，我便照你父亲所爱的给他做成美味。 10 你拿到你父亲那里给他吃，使他在未死之先给你祝福。” 11 雅各对他母亲利百加说：“我哥哥以扫浑身是有毛的，我身上是光滑的。 12 倘若我父亲摸着我，必以我为欺哄人的，我就招咒诅，不得祝福。” 13 他母亲对他说：“我儿，你招的咒诅归到我身上，你只管听我的话，去把羊羔给我拿来。” 14 他便去拿来交给他母亲，他母亲就照他父亲所爱的做成美味。 15 利百加又把家里所存大儿子以扫上好的衣服给她小儿子雅各穿上， 16 又用山羊羔皮包在雅各的手上和颈项的光滑处， 17 就把所做的美味和饼交在他儿子雅各的手里。
雅各欺父
18 雅各到他父亲那里说：“我父亲！”他说：“我在这里，我儿，你是谁？” 19 雅各对他父亲说：“我是你的长子以扫。我已照你所吩咐我的行了。请起来坐着，吃我的野味，好给我祝福。” 20 以撒对他儿子说：“我儿，你如何找得这么快呢？”他说：“因为耶和华你的神使我遇见好机会得着的。” 21 以撒对雅各说：“我儿，你近前来，我摸摸你，知道你真是我的儿子以扫不是。” 22 雅各就挨近他父亲以撒，以撒摸着他，说：“声音是雅各的声音，手却是以扫的手。” 23 以撒就辨不出他来，因为他手上有毛，像他哥哥以扫的手一样，就给他祝福。 24 又说：“你真是我儿子以扫吗？”他说：“我是。” 25 以撒说：“你递给我，我好吃我儿子的野味，给你祝福。”雅各就递给他，他便吃了，又拿酒给他，他也喝了。 26 他父亲以撒对他说：“我儿，你上前来与我亲嘴。” 27 他就上前与父亲亲嘴，他父亲一闻他衣服上的香气，就给他祝福，说：“我儿的香气如同耶和华赐福之田地的香气一样。 28 愿神赐你天上的甘露、地上的肥土，并许多五谷、新酒。 29 愿多民侍奉你，多国跪拜你；愿你做你弟兄的主，你母亲的儿子向你跪拜。凡咒诅你的，愿他受咒诅；为你祝福的，愿他蒙福。”
以扫痛哭求父祝福
30 以撒为雅各祝福已毕，雅各从他父亲那里才出来，他哥哥以扫正打猎回来， 31 也做了美味，拿来给他父亲，说：“请父亲起来，吃你儿子的野味，好给我祝福。” 32 他父亲以撒对他说：“你是谁？”他说：“我是你的长子以扫。” 33 以撒就大大地战兢，说：“你未来之先，是谁得了野味拿来给我呢？我已经吃了，为他祝福，他将来也必蒙福。” 34 以扫听了他父亲的话，就放声痛哭，说：“我父啊，求你也为我祝福！” 35 以撒说：“你兄弟已经用诡计来将你的福分夺去了。” 36 以扫说：“他名雅各，岂不是正对吗？因为他欺骗了我两次。他从前夺了我长子的名分，你看，他现在又夺了我的福分。”以扫又说：“你没有留下为我可祝的福吗？” 37 以撒回答以扫说：“我已立他为你的主，使他的弟兄都给他做仆人，并赐他五谷、新酒可以养生。我儿，现在我还能为你做什么呢？” 38 以扫对他父亲说：“父啊，你只有一样可祝的福吗？我父啊，求你也为我祝福！”以扫就放声而哭。 39 他父亲以撒说：“地上的肥土必为你所住，天上的甘露必为你所得。 40 你必倚靠刀剑度日，又必侍奉你的兄弟。到你强盛的时候，必从你颈项上挣开他的轭。”
以扫怨恨雅各欲杀之
41 以扫因他父亲给雅各祝的福，就怨恨雅各，心里说：“为我父亲居丧的日子近了，到那时候，我要杀我的兄弟雅各。” 42 有人把利百加大儿子以扫的话告诉利百加，她就打发人去，叫了她小儿子雅各来，对他说：“你哥哥以扫想要杀你，报仇雪恨。 43 现在，我儿，你要听我的话，起来逃往哈兰我哥哥拉班那里去， 44 同他住些日子，直等你哥哥的怒气消了。 45 你哥哥向你消了怒气，忘了你向他所做的事，我便打发人去把你从那里带回来。为什么一日丧你们二人呢？”
46 利百加对以撒说：“我因这赫人的女子连性命都厌烦了。倘若雅各也娶赫人的女子为妻像这些一样，我活着还有什么益处呢？”
以撒遣雅各娶妻于舅家
28 以撒叫了雅各来，给他祝福，并嘱咐他说：“你不要娶迦南的女子为妻。 2 你起身往巴旦亚兰去，到你外祖彼土利家里，在你母舅拉班的女儿中娶一女为妻。 3 愿全能的神赐福给你，使你生养众多，成为多族， 4 将应许亚伯拉罕的福赐给你和你的后裔，使你承受你所寄居的地为业，就是神赐给亚伯拉罕的地。” 5 以撒打发雅各走了，他就往巴旦亚兰去，到亚兰人彼土利的儿子拉班那里，拉班是雅各、以扫的母舅。 6 以扫见以撒已经给雅各祝福，而且打发他往巴旦亚兰去，在那里娶妻，并见祝福的时候嘱咐他说不要娶迦南的女子为妻， 7 又见雅各听从父母的话往巴旦亚兰去了， 8 以扫就晓得他父亲以撒看不中迦南的女子， 9 便往以实玛利那里去，在他二妻之外又娶了玛哈拉为妻。她是亚伯拉罕儿子以实玛利的女儿，尼拜约的妹子。
雅各梦中得指示
10 雅各出了别是巴，向哈兰走去。 11 到了一个地方，因为太阳落了，就在那里住宿，便拾起那地方的一块石头枕在头下，在那里躺卧睡了。 12 梦见一个梯子立在地上，梯子的头顶着天，有神的使者在梯子上上去下来。 13 耶和华站在梯子以上[a]，说：“我是耶和华你祖亚伯拉罕的神，也是以撒的神，我要将你现在所躺卧之地赐给你和你的后裔。 14 你的后裔必像地上的尘沙那样多，必向东西南北开展。地上万族必因你和你的后裔得福。 15 我也与你同在，你无论往哪里去，我必保佑你，领你归回这地，总不离弃你，直到我成全了向你所应许的。” 16 雅各睡醒了，说：“耶和华真在这里，我竟不知道！” 17 就惧怕，说：“这地方何等可畏！这不是别的，乃是神的殿，也是天的门。”
雅各许愿
18 雅各清早起来，把所枕的石头立做柱子，浇油在上面。 19 他就给那地方起名叫伯特利[b]，但那地方起先名叫路斯。 20 雅各许愿说：“神若与我同在，在我所行的路上保佑我，又给我食物吃、衣服穿， 21 使我平平安安地回到我父亲的家，我就必以耶和华为我的神， 22 我所立为柱子的石头也必做神的殿。凡你所赐给我的，我必将十分之一献给你。”

以撒为儿子祝福
27 以撒年老的时候，眼睛昏花，几乎看不见。他把大儿子以扫叫来，说：“我儿啊！”以扫说：“我在这里。” 2 以撒说：“我年老了，不知道还能活多久。 3 现在，带着你的弓箭去田野为我打些野味来， 4 照我喜欢的口味，做成美食给我吃，以便我在死前给你祝福。”
5 利百加听见了以撒跟儿子以扫说的话。以扫出去打猎后， 6 利百加就对她儿子雅各说：“我听见你父亲对你哥哥以扫说， 7 ‘你去打些野味回来，做成美食给我吃，以便我死之前在耶和华面前给你祝福。’ 8 现在，孩子，你要听我的话，照我的吩咐去做。 9 你到羊群里选两头上好的山羊羔，我好照你父亲喜爱的口味做成美食， 10 由你拿去给他吃，让他死前为你祝福。”
11 雅各对母亲利百加说：“哥哥以扫浑身是毛，我的皮肤光滑。 12 如果父亲用手摸我，一定会发觉我骗他，那时候我不但得不到祝福，反会招来咒诅。” 13 他母亲利百加对他说：“孩子啊，有咒诅，我来承担。你只管听我的话，把羊羔牵来。”
14 于是，雅各把羊牵来交给母亲，他母亲就照他父亲喜爱的口味做成美食。 15 利百加又拿了大儿子以扫留在家里最好的衣服，给小儿子雅各穿上， 16 再用山羊皮把雅各光滑的手和脖子都包起来， 17 然后把做好的美味和饼交给雅各。
18 雅各来到父亲跟前，叫了一声：“父亲。”以撒回答说：“我在这里，孩子，你是谁？” 19 雅各对父亲说：“我是你的大儿子以扫，你吩咐我的事，我已经办好了。请你坐起来，吃我打的野味，然后给我祝福。” 20 以撒对他说：“孩子，你怎么这么快就打到野味了？”雅各回答说：“因为你的上帝耶和华让我碰见好机会。” 21 以撒说：“孩子，过来，让我摸摸看你是不是我儿以扫。” 22 雅各挨到父亲跟前，以撒摸着他说：“声音是雅各的声音，手却是以扫的手。” 23 因为雅各手上有毛，与他哥哥以扫的手一样，以撒分辨不出来，就给他祝福。 24 以撒又问：“你真是我的儿子以扫吗？”雅各回答说：“是。” 25 以撒便说：“把野味拿给我，我吃了你打的野味就为你祝福。”雅各递上野味，以撒吃了；雅各又拿酒给他喝，他也喝了。 26 以撒对他说：“孩子，你过来亲吻我。” 27 雅各就挨上前去亲了父亲。以撒闻到他衣服上的气味，就祝福他说：
“我儿子的香气就像蒙耶和华赐福之田地的香气。
28 愿上帝赐你天上的甘霖、肥沃的土地并丰富的五谷和新酒。
29 愿万民都臣服于你，
万国都向你下拜。
愿你成为你弟兄的主人，
愿你母亲的儿子向你下拜。
咒诅你的，愿他受咒诅；
祝福你的，愿他蒙祝福。”
以扫求父亲祝福
30 雅各接受了以撒的祝福才刚离开，他的哥哥以扫就打猎回来了。 31 以扫把野味煮好，拿到父亲跟前，说：“父亲，请起来吃你儿子煮的野味，然后给我祝福。” 32 他父亲以撒问道：“你是谁？”以扫回答说：“我是你的长子以扫。” 33 以撒大为震惊，说：“你没有来之前，拿野味来给我吃的是谁呢？我已经吃了，也给那人祝福了，他将来必蒙祝福。”
34 以扫听了放声痛哭，说：“父亲啊，求你也为我祝福！” 35 以撒说：“你弟弟已经用诡计把你的福分夺去了。” 36 以扫说：“怪不得他叫雅各，他已经骗了我两次，先前把我长子的名分夺去，现在又夺去我的福分！”接着他对父亲说：“难道你没有留下别的祝福可以给我吗？”
37 以撒对以扫说：“我已经立他做你的主人，使他的众弟兄做他的仆人，并给他五谷和新酒。孩子啊，我还能为你做什么呢？” 38 以扫对父亲说：“父亲啊，你只有一个祝福吗？父亲啊，求你也为我祝福！”以扫又放声大哭。 39 以撒对他说：
“你住的地方必远离肥沃的土地，
也不会有天上的甘霖。
40 你必倚靠刀剑生活，
又必服侍你的弟弟。
到你无法忍受的时候，
你必挣脱颈上的重轭。”
雅各逃往舅父家
41 以扫因为父亲把祝福给了雅各，就对雅各怀恨在心，暗自思量说：“父亲已经不久人世，他死后，我要把雅各杀掉！” 42 以扫的计谋传到利百加耳中。她就派人把雅各叫来，对他说：“你哥哥以扫想要杀你泄愤！ 43 孩子，听我的话，现在就逃到哈兰你舅舅拉班那里， 44 与他住些日子，一直住到你哥哥的气消了。 45 等他气消了，忘了你对他所做的事，我会派人接你回来。我何必在一天之内失去你们两个呢？” 46 利百加对以撒说：“我被这些赫人女子烦死了。如果雅各也像以扫一样娶那些赫人女子为妻，我活着还有什么意思呢？”
28 以撒把雅各叫来，给他祝福，又嘱咐他说：“你不要娶迦南的女子为妻。 2 马上去巴旦·亚兰，到你外祖父彼土利家，在你舅父拉班的女儿中选一个做妻子。 3 愿全能的上帝赐福给你，使你的子孙众多，成为许多民族。 4 愿上帝把赐给亚伯拉罕的福气赐给你和你的后代，让你承受你寄居之地为产业，就是上帝赐给亚伯拉罕的地方。” 5 以撒让雅各前往巴旦·亚兰，去亚兰人彼土利的儿子拉班那里。拉班是雅各和以扫的舅父。
6 以扫看见父亲给雅各祝福，让他到巴旦·亚兰娶妻，叮嘱他不要娶迦南的女子， 7 又看见雅各听从父母到巴旦·亚兰去了， 8 就知道父亲以撒不喜欢迦南的女子。 9 他便到亚伯拉罕的儿子以实玛利那里，娶了以实玛利的女儿、尼拜约的妹妹玛哈拉为妻。他娶玛哈拉以前已经有两个妻子了。
雅各的梦
10 雅各离开别示巴，前往哈兰。 11 到了一个地方，太阳已经下山，他便在那里过夜。他枕着一块石头睡觉， 12 梦中看见有个梯子立在地上，直通到天上，梯子上有上帝的天使上上下下。 13 耶和华站在梯子上[a]对雅各说：“我是耶和华，是你祖父亚伯拉罕的上帝，也是以撒的上帝。我要把你现在躺卧的地方赐给你和你的后代。 14 你的后代必多如地上的尘沙，遍布四方，地上万族必因你和你的后代而蒙福。 15 我与你同在，无论你去哪里，我都会保护你，领你返回这片土地。我必实现对你的应许，决不离弃你。”
16 雅各一觉醒来，说：“耶和华居然在这里，我却不知道。” 17 他就害怕起来，说：“这地方何等可畏！这里是上帝的家，是通天的大门。”
18 雅各清早起来，把枕的那块石头立成柱子作记号，在上面浇上油。 19 他称那地方为伯特利[b]，那地方以前叫路斯。 20 雅各许愿说：“如果上帝与我同在，在路上保护我，供给我衣食， 21 带领我平安地回到父亲的家，我就一定敬奉耶和华为我的上帝。 22 我立为柱子的这块石头必成为上帝的殿。凡你赐给我的，我必把十分之一献给你。”
Genesis 27-28
New International Version
Genesis 27-28
New International Version
27 When Isaac was old and his eyes were so weak that he could no longer see,(A) he called for Esau his older son(B) and said to him, “My son.”
“Here I am,” he answered.
2 Isaac said, “I am now an old man and don’t know the day of my death.(C) 3 Now then, get your equipment—your quiver and bow—and go out to the open country(D) to hunt some wild game for me. 4 Prepare me the kind of tasty food I like(E) and bring it to me to eat, so that I may give you my blessing(F) before I die.”(G)
5 Now Rebekah was listening as Isaac spoke to his son Esau. When Esau left for the open country(H) to hunt game and bring it back, 6 Rebekah said to her son Jacob,(I) “Look, I overheard your father say to your brother Esau, 7 ‘Bring me some game and prepare me some tasty food to eat, so that I may give you my blessing in the presence of the Lord before I die.’(J) 8 Now, my son, listen carefully and do what I tell you:(K) 9 Go out to the flock and bring me two choice young goats,(L) so I can prepare some tasty food for your father, just the way he likes it.(M) 10 Then take it to your father to eat, so that he may give you his blessing(N) before he dies.”
11 Jacob said to Rebekah his mother, “But my brother Esau is a hairy man(O) while I have smooth skin. 12 What if my father touches me?(P) I would appear to be tricking him and would bring down a curse(Q) on myself rather than a blessing.”
13 His mother said to him, “My son, let the curse fall on me.(R) Just do what I say;(S) go and get them for me.”
14 So he went and got them and brought them to his mother, and she prepared some tasty food, just the way his father liked it.(T) 15 Then Rebekah took the best clothes(U) of Esau her older son,(V) which she had in the house, and put them on her younger son Jacob. 16 She also covered his hands and the smooth part of his neck with the goatskins.(W) 17 Then she handed to her son Jacob the tasty food and the bread she had made.
18 He went to his father and said, “My father.”
“Yes, my son,” he answered. “Who is it?”(X)
19 Jacob said to his father, “I am Esau your firstborn.(Y) I have done as you told me. Please sit up and eat some of my game,(Z) so that you may give me your blessing.”(AA)
20 Isaac asked his son, “How did you find it so quickly, my son?”
“The Lord your God gave me success,(AB)” he replied.
21 Then Isaac said to Jacob, “Come near so I can touch you,(AC) my son, to know whether you really are my son Esau or not.”
22 Jacob went close to his father Isaac,(AD) who touched(AE) him and said, “The voice is the voice of Jacob, but the hands are the hands of Esau.” 23 He did not recognize him, for his hands were hairy like those of his brother Esau;(AF) so he proceeded to bless him. 24 “Are you really my son Esau?” he asked.
“I am,” he replied.
25 Then he said, “My son, bring me some of your game to eat, so that I may give you my blessing.”(AG)
Jacob brought it to him and he ate; and he brought some wine and he drank. 26 Then his father Isaac said to him, “Come here, my son, and kiss me.”
27 So he went to him and kissed(AH) him(AI). When Isaac caught the smell of his clothes,(AJ) he blessed him and said,
“Ah, the smell of my son
is like the smell of a field
that the Lord has blessed.(AK)
28 May God give you heaven’s dew(AL)
and earth’s richness(AM)—
an abundance of grain(AN) and new wine.(AO)
29 May nations serve you
and peoples bow down to you.(AP)
Be lord over your brothers,
and may the sons of your mother bow down to you.(AQ)
May those who curse you be cursed
and those who bless you be blessed.(AR)”
30 After Isaac finished blessing him, and Jacob had scarcely left his father’s presence, his brother Esau came in from hunting. 31 He too prepared some tasty food and brought it to his father. Then he said to him, “My father, please sit up and eat some of my game, so that you may give me your blessing.”(AS)
32 His father Isaac asked him, “Who are you?”(AT)
“I am your son,” he answered, “your firstborn, Esau.(AU)”
33 Isaac trembled violently and said, “Who was it, then, that hunted game and brought it to me?(AV) I ate it just before you came and I blessed him—and indeed he will be blessed!(AW)”
34 When Esau heard his father’s words, he burst out with a loud and bitter cry(AX) and said to his father, “Bless(AY) me—me too, my father!”
35 But he said, “Your brother came deceitfully(AZ) and took your blessing.”(BA)
36 Esau said, “Isn’t he rightly named Jacob[a]?(BB) This is the second time he has taken advantage of(BC) me: He took my birthright,(BD) and now he’s taken my blessing!”(BE) Then he asked, “Haven’t you reserved any blessing for me?”
37 Isaac answered Esau, “I have made him lord over you and have made all his relatives his servants, and I have sustained him with grain and new wine.(BF) So what can I possibly do for you, my son?”
38 Esau said to his father, “Do you have only one blessing, my father? Bless me too, my father!” Then Esau wept aloud.(BG)
39 His father Isaac answered him,(BH)
“Your dwelling will be
away from the earth’s richness,
away from the dew(BI) of heaven above.(BJ)
40 You will live by the sword
and you will serve(BK) your brother.(BL)
But when you grow restless,
you will throw his yoke
from off your neck.(BM)”
41 Esau held a grudge(BN) against Jacob(BO) because of the blessing his father had given him. He said to himself, “The days of mourning(BP) for my father are near; then I will kill(BQ) my brother Jacob.”(BR)
42 When Rebekah was told what her older son Esau(BS) had said, she sent for her younger son Jacob and said to him, “Your brother Esau is planning to avenge himself by killing you.(BT) 43 Now then, my son, do what I say:(BU) Flee at once to my brother Laban(BV) in Harran.(BW) 44 Stay with him for a while(BX) until your brother’s fury subsides. 45 When your brother is no longer angry with you and forgets what you did to him,(BY) I’ll send word for you to come back from there.(BZ) Why should I lose both of you in one day?”
46 Then Rebekah said to Isaac, “I’m disgusted with living because of these Hittite(CA) women. If Jacob takes a wife from among the women of this land,(CB) from Hittite women like these, my life will not be worth living.”(CC)
28 So Isaac called for Jacob and blessed(CD) him. Then he commanded him: “Do not marry a Canaanite woman.(CE) 2 Go at once to Paddan Aram,[b](CF) to the house of your mother’s father Bethuel.(CG) Take a wife for yourself there, from among the daughters of Laban, your mother’s brother.(CH) 3 May God Almighty[c](CI) bless(CJ) you and make you fruitful(CK) and increase your numbers(CL) until you become a community of peoples. 4 May he give you and your descendants the blessing given to Abraham,(CM) so that you may take possession of the land(CN) where you now reside as a foreigner,(CO) the land God gave to Abraham.” 5 Then Isaac sent Jacob on his way,(CP) and he went to Paddan Aram,(CQ) to Laban son of Bethuel the Aramean,(CR) the brother of Rebekah,(CS) who was the mother of Jacob and Esau.
6 Now Esau learned that Isaac had blessed Jacob and had sent him to Paddan Aram to take a wife from there, and that when he blessed him he commanded him, “Do not marry a Canaanite woman,”(CT) 7 and that Jacob had obeyed his father and mother and had gone to Paddan Aram. 8 Esau then realized how displeasing the Canaanite women(CU) were to his father Isaac;(CV) 9 so he went to Ishmael(CW) and married Mahalath, the sister of Nebaioth(CX) and daughter of Ishmael son of Abraham, in addition to the wives he already had.(CY)
Jacob’s Dream at Bethel
10 Jacob left Beersheba(CZ) and set out for Harran.(DA) 11 When he reached a certain place,(DB) he stopped for the night because the sun had set. Taking one of the stones there, he put it under his head(DC) and lay down to sleep. 12 He had a dream(DD) in which he saw a stairway resting on the earth, with its top reaching to heaven, and the angels of God were ascending and descending on it.(DE) 13 There above it[d] stood the Lord,(DF) and he said: “I am the Lord, the God of your father Abraham and the God of Isaac.(DG) I will give you and your descendants the land(DH) on which you are lying.(DI) 14 Your descendants will be like the dust of the earth, and you(DJ) will spread out to the west and to the east, to the north and to the south.(DK) All peoples on earth will be blessed through you and your offspring.[e](DL) 15 I am with you(DM) and will watch over you(DN) wherever you go,(DO) and I will bring you back to this land.(DP) I will not leave you(DQ) until I have done what I have promised you.(DR)”(DS)
16 When Jacob awoke from his sleep,(DT) he thought, “Surely the Lord is in this place, and I was not aware of it.” 17 He was afraid and said, “How awesome is this place!(DU) This is none other than the house of God;(DV) this is the gate of heaven.”
18 Early the next morning Jacob took the stone he had placed under his head(DW) and set it up as a pillar(DX) and poured oil on top of it.(DY) 19 He called that place Bethel,[f](DZ) though the city used to be called Luz.(EA)
20 Then Jacob made a vow,(EB) saying, “If God will be with me and will watch over me(EC) on this journey I am taking and will give me food to eat and clothes to wear(ED) 21 so that I return safely(EE) to my father’s household,(EF) then the Lord[g] will be my God(EG) 22 and[h] this stone that I have set up as a pillar(EH) will be God’s house,(EI) and of all that you give me I will give you a tenth.(EJ)”
