Parashat Toldot תּוֹלְדֹת

25:19And these are the generations of Yitzchak (Isaac), Avraham’s (Abraham’s) son: Avraham begot Yitzchak.

Ve'eleh toledot Yitzḥak ben-Avraham Avraham holid et-Yitzḥak.

יטוְאֵ֛לֶּה תּֽוֹלְדֹ֥ת יִצְחָ֖ק בֶּן־אַבְרָהָ֑ם אַבְרָהָ֖ם הוֹלִ֥יד אֶת־יִצְחָֽק׃

25:20And Yitzchak was forty years old when he took Rivkah (Rebekah) to wife, the daughter of Betu’el (Bethuel) the Arami (Syrian) of Paddan-Aram (Padan-aram), the sister of Lavan (Laban) the Arami.

Vayehi Yitzḥak ben-arba'im shanah bekaḥto et-Rivkah bat-Betu'el ha'Arami miPadan Aram aḥot Lavan ha'Arami lo le'ishah.

כוַיְהִ֤י יִצְחָק֙ בֶּן־אַרְבָּעִ֣ים שָׁנָ֔ה בְּקַחְתּ֣וֹ אֶת־רִבְקָ֗ה בַּת־בְּתוּאֵל֙ הָֽאֲרַמִּ֔י מִפַּדַּ֖ן אֲרָ֑ם אֲח֛וֹת לָבָ֥ן הָֽאֲרַמִּ֖י ל֥וֹ לְאִשָּֽׁה׃

25:21And Yitzchak entreated Hashem for his wife, because she was barren; and Hashem was entreated of him, and Rivkah his wife conceived.

Vaye'tar Yitzḥak la-Adonai lenoḥaḥ ishto ki akarah hi vaye'ater lo Adonai vatahar Rivkah ishto.

כאוַיֶּעְתַּ֨ר יִצְחָ֤ק לַֽיהֹוָה֙ לְנֹ֣כַח אִשְׁתּ֔וֹ כִּ֥י עֲקָרָ֖ה הִ֑וא וַיֵּעָ֤תֶר לוֹ֙ יְהֹוָ֔ה וַתַּ֖הַר רִבְקָ֥ה אִשְׁתּֽוֹ׃

25:22And the children struggled together within her; and she said, “If it be so, why am I thus?” And she went to inquire of Hashem.

Vayitrotzatzu habanim bekirbah vatomer im-ken lamah zeh anoḥi vateleḥ lidrosh et-Adonai.

כבוַיִּתְרֹֽצֲצ֤וּ הַבָּנִים֙ בְּקִרְבָּ֔הּ וַתֹּ֣אמֶר אִם־כֵּ֔ן לָ֥מָּה זֶּ֖ה אָנֹ֑כִי וַתֵּ֖לֶךְ לִדְר֥שׁ אֶת־יְהֹוָֽה׃

25:23And Hashem said unto her, “Two nations are in your womb, and two manner of people shall be separated from your bowels; and the one people shall be stronger than the other people; and the elder shall serve the younger.”

Vayomer Adonai lah shenei goyim bevitneḥ ushenei le'umim mime'ayiḥ yiparedu ule'om mil'om ye'ematz verav ya'avod tza'ir.

כגוַיֹּ֨אמֶר יְהֹוָ֜ה לָ֗הּ שְׁנֵ֤י גוֹיִם֙ (כתיב גיים) בְּבִטְנֵ֔ךְ וּשְׁנֵ֣י לְאֻמִּ֔ים מִמֵּעַ֖יִךְ יִפָּרֵ֑דוּ וּלְאֹם֙ מִלְאֹ֣ם יֶֽאֱמָ֔ץ וְרַ֖ב יַֽעֲבֹ֥ד צָעִֽיר׃

25:24And when her days to be delivered were fulfilled, behold, there were twins in her womb.

Vayimle'u yameha laledet vehineh tomim bevitnah.

כדוַיִּמְלְא֥וּ יָמֶ֖יהָ לָלֶ֑דֶת וְהִנֵּ֥ה תוֹמִ֖ם בְּבִטְנָֽהּ׃

25:25And the first came out red, all over like a hairy garment; and they called his name Esav (Esau).

Vayetze harishon admoni kulo ke'aderet se'ar vayikre'u shemo Esav.

כהוַיֵּצֵ֤א הָֽרִאשׁוֹן֙ אַדְמוֹנִ֔י כֻּלּ֖וֹ כְּאַדֶּ֣רֶת שֵׂעָ֑ר וַיִּקְרְא֥וּ שְׁמ֖וֹ עֵשָֽׂו׃

25:26And after that came his brother out, and his hand took hold on Esav’s heel; and his name was called Yaakov (Jacob). And Yitzchak was sixty years old when she bore them.

Ve'aḥarei-ḥen yatza aḥiv veyado oḥezet ba'akev Esav vayikra shemo Ya'akov veYitzḥak ben-shishim shanah beledet otam.

כווְאַֽחֲרֵי־כֵ֞ן יָצָ֣א אָחִ֗יו וְיָד֤וֹ אֹחֶ֨זֶת֙ בַּֽעֲקֵ֣ב עֵשָׂ֔ו וַיִּקְרָ֥א שְׁמ֖וֹ יַֽעֲקֹ֑ב וְיִצְחָ֛ק בֶּן־שִׁשִּׁ֥ים שָׁנָ֖ה בְּלֶ֥דֶת אֹתָֽם׃

25:27And the boys grew; and Esav was a skillful hunter, a man of the field; and Yaakov was a plain man, dwelling in tents.

Vayigdelu hane'arim vayehi Esav ish yodea tzayid ish sadeh veYa'akov ish tam yoshev ohalim.

כזוַיִּגְדְּלוּ֙ הַנְּעָרִ֔ים וַיְהִ֣י עֵשָׂ֗ו אִ֛ישׁ יֹדֵ֥עַ צַ֖יִד אִ֣ישׁ שָׂדֶ֑ה וְיַֽעֲקֹב֙ אִ֣ישׁ תָּ֔ם ישֵׁ֖ב אֹֽהָלִֽים׃

25:28And Yitzchak loved Esav, because he ate of his game; but Rivkah loved Yaakov.

Vaye'ehav Yitzḥak et-Esav ki-tzayid befiv veRivkah ohevet et-Ya'akov.

כחוַיֶּֽאֱהַ֥ב יִצְחָ֛ק אֶת־עֵשָׂ֖ו כִּי־צַ֣יִד בְּפִ֑יו וְרִבְקָ֖ה אֹהֶ֥בֶת אֶת־יַֽעֲקֹֽב׃

25:29And Yaakov cooked stew; and Esav came from the field, and he was faint.

Vayazed Ya'akov nazid vayavo Esav min-hasadeh vehu ayef.

כטוַיָּ֥זֶד יַֽעֲקֹ֖ב נָזִ֑יד וַיָּבֹ֥א עֵשָׂ֛ו מִן־הַשָּׂדֶ֖ה וְה֥וּא עָיֵֽף׃

25:30And Esav said to Yaakov, “Feed me, I pray you, with that same red stew; for I am faint.” Therefore was his name called Edom.

Vayomer Esav el-Ya'akov hale'iteni na min-ha'adom ha'adom hazeh ki ayef anoḥi al-ken kara-shemo Edom.

לוַיֹּ֨אמֶר עֵשָׂ֜ו אֶל־יַֽעֲקֹ֗ב הַלְעִיטֵ֤נִי נָא֙ מִן־הָֽאָדֹ֤ם הָֽאָדֹם֙ הַזֶּ֔ה כִּ֥י עָיֵ֖ף אָנֹ֑כִי עַל־כֵּ֥ן קָֽרָא־שְׁמ֖וֹ אֱדֽוֹם׃

25:31And Yaakov said, “Sell me this day your birthright.”

Vayomer Ya'akov miḥrah ḥayom et-beḥorateḥa li.

לאוַיֹּ֖אמֶר יַֽעֲקֹ֑ב מִכְרָ֥ה כַיּ֛וֹם אֶת־בְּכֹרָֽתְךָ֖ לִֽי׃

25:32And Esav said, “Behold, I am at the point to die; and what profit shall this birthright do to me?”

Vayomer Esav hineh anoḥi holeḥ lamut velamah-zeh li beḥorah.

לבוַיֹּ֣אמֶר עֵשָׂ֔ו הִנֵּ֛ה אָֽנֹכִ֥י הוֹלֵ֖ךְ לָמ֑וּת וְלָֽמָּה־זֶּ֥ה לִ֖י בְּכֹרָֽה׃

25:33And Yaakov said, “Swear to me this day”; and he swore unto him; and he sold his birthright unto Yaakov.

Vayomer Ya'akov hishave'ah li kayom vayishava lo vayimkor et-beḥorato leYa'akov.

לגוַיֹּ֣אמֶר יַֽעֲקֹ֗ב הִשָּׁ֤בְעָה לִּי֙ כַּיּ֔וֹם וַיִּשָּׁבַ֖ע ל֑וֹ וַיִּמְכֹּ֥ר אֶת־בְּכֹֽרָת֖וֹ לְיַֽעֲקֹֽב׃

25:34Then Yaakov gave Esav bread and stew of lentils; and he ate and drank, and rose up, and went his way. Thus Esav despised his birthright.

VeYa'akov natan le'Esav leḥem unezid adashim vayoḥal vayesht vayakom vayelaḥ vayivez Esav et-habeḥorah.

לדוְיַֽעֲקֹ֞ב נָתַ֣ן לְעֵשָׂ֗ו לֶ֚חֶם וּנְזִ֣יד עֲדָשִׁ֔ים וַיֹּ֣אכַל וַיֵּ֔שְׁתְּ וַיָּ֖קָם וַיֵּלַ֑ךְ וַיִּ֥בֶז עֵשָׂ֖ו אֶת־הַבְּכֹרָֽה׃

26:1And there was a famine in the land, besides the first famine that was in the days of Avraham. And Yitzchak went unto Avimelech (Abimelech) king of the Pelishtim (Philistines) unto Gerar.

Vayehi ra'av ba'aretz milevad hara'av harishon asher hayah bimei Avraham vayeleḥ Yitzḥak el-Avimeleḥ meleḥ-Pelishtim Gerarah.

אוַיְהִ֤י רָעָב֙ בָּאָ֔רֶץ מִלְּבַד֙ הָֽרָעָ֣ב הָֽרִאשׁ֔וֹן אֲשֶׁ֥ר הָיָ֖ה בִּימֵ֣י אַבְרָהָ֑ם וַיֵּ֧לֶךְ יִצְחָ֛ק אֶל־אֲבִימֶ֥לֶךְ מֶֽלֶךְ־פְּלִשְׁתִּ֖ים גְּרָֽרָה׃

26:2And Hashem appeared unto him, and said, “Do not go down into Mitzrayim (Egypt); dwell in the land which I shall tell you of.

Vayera elav Adonai vayomer al-tered Mitzraymah sheḥon ba'aretz asher omar eleḥa.

26:3Sojourn in this land, and I will be with you, and will bless you; for unto you, and unto your seed, I will give all these countries, and I will perform the oath which I swore unto Avraham your father;

Gur ba'aretz hazot ve'ehyeh imeḥa va'avaraḥeka ki-leḥa ulezar'aḥa eten et-kol-ha'aratzot ha'el vahakimoti et-hashevu'ah asher nishba'ti le'Avraham aviḥa.

26:4and I will make your seed to multiply as the stars of heaven, and will give unto your seed all these countries; and in your seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed;

Vehirbeiti et-zar'aḥa keḥoḥevei hashamayim venatati lezar'aḥa et kol-ha'aratzot ha'el vehitbaraḥu vezar'aḥa kol goyei ha'aretz.

26:5because Avraham obeyed My voice, and kept My charge, My commandments, My statutes, and My laws.”

Ekev asher-shama Avraham bekoli vayishmor mishmarti mitzvotay ḥukotay vetorotay.

26:6And Yitzchak dwelt in Gerar.

Vayeshev Yitzḥak biGrar.

ווַיֵּ֥שֶׁב יִצְחָ֖ק בִּגְרָֽר׃

26:7And the men of the place asked him about his wife; and he said, “She is my sister”; for he feared to say, “She is my wife”; “lest,” said he, “the men of the place should kill me for Rivkah”; because she was fair to look upon.

Vayish'alu anshei hamakom le'ishto vayomer aḥoti hi ki yare lemor ishti pen-yaharguni anshei hamakom al-Rivkah ki-tovat mar'eh hi.

זוַיִּשְׁאֲל֞וּ אַנְשֵׁ֤י הַמָּקוֹם֙ לְאִשְׁתּ֔וֹ וַיֹּ֖אמֶר אֲחֹ֣תִי הִ֑וא כִּ֤י יָרֵא֙ לֵאמֹ֣ר אִשְׁתִּ֔י פֶּן־יַֽהַרְגֻ֜נִי אַנְשֵׁ֤י הַמָּקוֹם֙ עַל־רִבְקָ֔ה כִּֽי־טוֹבַ֥ת מַרְאֶ֖ה הִֽוא׃

26:8And it came to pass, when he had been there a long time, that Avimelech king of the Pelishtim looked out at a window, and saw, and, behold, Yitzchak was sporting with Rivkah his wife.

Vayehi ki areḥu-lo sham hayamim vayashkef Avimeleḥ meleḥ Pelishtim be'ad haḥalon vayar vehineh Yitzḥak metzaḥek et Rivkah ishto.

חוַיְהִ֗י כִּ֣י אָֽרְכוּ־ל֥וֹ שָׁם֙ הַיָּמִ֔ים וַיַּשְׁקֵ֗ף אֲבִימֶ֨לֶךְ֙ מֶ֣לֶךְ פְּלִשְׁתִּ֔ים בְּעַ֖ד הַֽחַלּ֑וֹן וַיַּ֗רְא וְהִנֵּ֤ה יִצְחָק֙ מְצַחֵ֔ק אֵ֖ת רִבְקָ֥ה אִשְׁתּֽוֹ׃

26:9And Avimelech called Yitzchak, and said, “Behold, surely she is your wife; and how did you say, ‘She is my sister’?” And Yitzchak said unto him, “Because I said, ‘Lest I die because of her.’”

Vayikra Avimeleḥ leYitzḥak vayomer aḥ hineh ishteḥa hi ve'eiḥ amarta aḥoti hi vayomer elav Yitzḥak ki amarti pen-amut aleha.

טוַיִּקְרָ֨א אֲבִימֶ֜לֶךְ לְיִצְחָ֗ק וַיֹּ֨אמֶר֙ אַ֣ךְ הִנֵּ֤ה אִשְׁתְּךָ֙ הִ֔וא וְאֵ֥יךְ אָמַ֖רְתָּ אֲחֹ֣תִי הִ֑וא וַיֹּ֤אמֶר אֵלָיו֙ יִצְחָ֔ק כִּ֣י אָמַ֔רְתִּי פֶּן־אָמ֖וּת עָלֶֽיהָ׃

26:10And Avimelech said, “What is this you have done unto us? One of the people might easily have lain with your wife, and you would have brought guiltiness upon us.”

Vayomer Avimeleḥ mah-zot asita lanu kim'at shaḥav aḥad ha'am et-ishteḥa veheveta aleinu asham.

26:11And Avimelech charged all his people, saying, “He who touches this man or his wife shall surely be put to death.”

Vayetzav Avimeleḥ et-kol-ha'am lemor hanogea ba'ish hazeh uve'ishto mot yumat.

יאוַיְצַ֣ו אֲבִימֶ֔לֶךְ אֶת־כָּל־הָעָ֖ם לֵאמֹ֑ר הַנֹּגֵ֜עַ בָּאִ֥ישׁ הַזֶּ֛ה וּבְאִשְׁתּ֖וֹ מ֥וֹת יוּמָֽת׃

26:12Then Yitzchak sowed in that land, and received in the same year a hundredfold; and Hashem blessed him.

Vayizra Yitzḥak ba'aretz hahi vayimtza bashanah hahi me'ah she'arim vayevaraḥehu Adonai.

יבוַיִּזְרַ֤ע יִצְחָק֙ בָּאָ֣רֶץ הַהִ֔וא וַיִּמְצָ֛א בַּשָּׁנָ֥ה הַהִ֖וא מֵאָ֣ה שְׁעָרִ֑ים וַיְבָֽרֲכֵ֖הוּ יְהֹוָֽה׃

26:13And the man grew great, and went forward, and grew until he became very great;

Vayigdal ha'ish vayeleḥ haloḥ vegadel ad ki-gadal me'od.

יגוַיִּגְדַּ֖ל הָאִ֑ישׁ וַיֵּ֤לֶךְ הָלוֹךְ֙ וְגָדֵ֔ל עַ֥ד כִּֽי־גָדַ֖ל מְאֹֽד׃

26:14for he had possession of flocks, and possession of herds, and a great household of servants; and the Pelishtim envied him.

Vayehi-lo mikneh-tzon umikneh vakar va'avudah rabah vayekan'u oto Pelishtim.

ידוַֽיְהִי־ל֤וֹ מִקְנֵה־צֹאן֙ וּמִקְנֵ֣ה בָקָ֔ר וַֽעֲבֻדָּ֖ה רַבָּ֑ה וַיְקַנְא֥וּ אֹת֖וֹ פְּלִשְׁתִּֽים׃

26:15Now all the wells which his father’s servants had dug in the days of Avraham his father, the Pelishtim had stopped them, and filled them with earth.

Veḥol-habe'erot asher ḥaferu avdei aviv bimei Avraham aviv sitemum Pelishtim vayemal'um afar.

26:16And Avimelech said unto Yitzchak, “Go from us; for you are much mightier than we.”

Vayomer Avimeleḥ el-Yitzḥak leḥ me'imanu ki-atzamta mimenu me'od.

טזוַיֹּ֥אמֶר אֲבִימֶ֖לֶךְ אֶל־יִצְחָ֑ק לֵ֚ךְ מֵֽעִמָּ֔נוּ כִּֽי־עָצַ֥מְתָּ מִמֶּ֖נּוּ מְאֹֽד׃

26:17And Yitzchak departed from there, and encamped in the valley of Gerar, and dwelt there.

Vayeleḥ misham Yitzḥak vayiḥan benaḥal-Gerar vayeshev sham.

יזוַיֵּ֥לֶךְ מִשָּׁ֖ם יִצְחָ֑ק וַיִּ֥חַן בְּנַֽחַל־גְּרָ֖ר וַיֵּ֥שֶׁב שָֽׁם׃

26:18And Yitzchak dug again the wells of water, which they had dug in the days of Avraham his father; for the Pelishtim had stopped them after the death of Avraham; and he called their names after the names by which his father had called them.

Vayashov Yitzḥak vayaḥpor et-be'erot hamayim asher ḥaferu bimei Avraham aviv vayesatemum Pelishtim aḥarei mot Avraham vayikra lahen shemot kashemot asher-kara lahen aviv.

26:19And Yitzchak’s servants dug in the valley, and found there a well of living water.

Vayaḥperu avdei-Yitzḥak banaḥal vayimtze'u-sham be'er mayim ḥayim.

26:20And the herdsmen of Gerar strove with Yitzchak’s herdsmen, saying, “The water is ours”; and he called the name of the well Esek; because they strove with him.

Vayarivu ro'ei Gerar im-ro'ei Yitzḥak lemor lanu hamayim vayikra shem-habe'er Esek ki hit'aseku imo.

26:21And they dug another well, and strove over that also; and he called the name of it Sitnah.

Vayaḥperu be'er aḥeret vayarivu gam-aleha vayikra shemah Sitnah.

26:22And he moved away from there, and dug another well; and for that they did not strive; and he called the name of it Rechovot (Rehoboth); and he said, “For now Hashem has made room for us, and we shall be fruitful in the land.”

Vaya'tek misham vayaḥpor be'er aḥeret velo ravu aleha vayikra shemah Reḥovot vayomer ki atah hirḥiv Adonai lanu ufarinu va'aretz.

26:23And he went up from there to Be’er-Sheva (Beer-sheba).

Vaya'al misham Be'er Shava.

כגוַיַּ֥עַל מִשָּׁ֖ם בְּאֵ֥ר שָֽׁבַע׃

26:24And Hashem appeared unto him the same night, and said, “I am the God of Avraham your father; do not fear, for I am with you, and will bless you, and multiply your seed for My servant Avraham’s sake.”

Vayera elav Adonai balaylah hahu vayomer anoḥi elohei Avraham aviḥa al-tira ki-iteḥa anoḥi uveraḥtiḥa vehirbeiti et-zar'aḥa ba'avur Avraham avdi.

26:25And he built an altar there, and called upon the name of Hashem, and pitched his tent there; and there Yitzchak’s servants dug a well.

Vayiven sham mizbeaḥ vayikra beshem Adonai vayet-sham oholo vayiḥru-sham avdei-Yitzḥak be'er.

26:26Then Avimelech went to him from Gerar, and Achuzat (Ahuzzath) one of his friends, and Pichol (Phichol) the chief captain of his army.

Va'Avimeleḥ halaḥ elav miGerar va'Aḥuzat mere'ehu uFiḥol sar-tzeva'o.

26:27And Yitzchak said unto them, “Why have you come to me, seeing you hate me, and have sent me away from you?”

Vayomer alehem Yitzḥak madua batem elay ve'atem senetem oti vateshaleḥuni me'iteḥem.

26:28And they said, “We saw plainly that Hashem was with you; and we said, ‘Let there be now an oath between us, even between us and you, and let us make a covenant with you,

Vayomeru ra'o ra'inu ki-hayah Adonai imaḥ vanomer tehi na alah beinoteinu beineinu uveineḥa veniḥretah verit imaḥ.

26:29that you will do us no harm, as we have not touched you, and as we have done unto you nothing but good, and have sent you away in peace.’ You are now the blessed of Hashem.”

26:30And he made them a feast, and they ate and drank.

Vaya'as lahem mishteh vayoḥelu vayishtu.

לוַיַּ֤עַשׂ לָהֶם֙ מִשְׁתֶּ֔ה וַיֹּֽאכְל֖וּ וַיִּשְׁתּֽוּ׃

26:31And they rose up early in the morning, and swore one to another; and Yitzchak sent them away, and they departed from him in peace.

Vayashkimu vaboker vayishave'u ish le'aḥiv vayeshaleḥem Yitzḥak vayeleḥu me'ito beshalom.

26:32And it came to pass the same day, that Yitzchak’s servants came, and told him concerning the well which they had dug, and said unto him, “We have found water.”

Vayehi bayom hahu vayavo'u avdei Yitzḥak vayagidu lo al-odot habe'er asher ḥafaru vayomeru lo matzanu mayim.

לבוַיְהִ֣י ׀ בַּיּ֣וֹם הַה֗וּא וַיָּבֹ֨אוּ֙ עַבְדֵ֣י יִצְחָ֔ק וַיַּגִּ֣דוּ ל֔וֹ עַל־אֹד֥וֹת הַבְּאֵ֖ר אֲשֶׁ֣ר חָפָ֑רוּ וַיֹּ֥אמְרוּ ל֖וֹ מָצָ֥אנוּ מָֽיִם׃

26:33And he called it Shivah (Shebah); therefore the name of the city is Be’er-Sheva unto this day.

Vayikra otah Shiv'ah al-ken shem-ha'ir Be'er Sheva ad hayom hazeh.

לגוַיִּקְרָ֥א אֹתָ֖הּ שִׁבְעָ֑ה עַל־כֵּ֤ן שֵֽׁם־הָעִיר֙ בְּאֵ֣ר שֶׁ֔בַע עַ֖ד הַיּ֥וֹם הַזֶּֽה׃

26:34And Esav was forty years old when he took to wife Yehudit (Judith) the daughter of Be’eri (Beeri) the Chitti (Hittite), and Basmat (Bashemath) the daughter of Elon the Chitti;

Vayehi Esav ben-arba'im shanah vayikaḥ ishah et-Yehudit bat-Be'eri haḤiti ve'et-Basmat bat-Eilon haḤiti.

לדוַיְהִ֤י עֵשָׂו֙ בֶּן־אַרְבָּעִ֣ים שָׁנָ֔ה וַיִּקַּ֤ח אִשָּׁה֙ אֶת־יְהוּדִ֔ית בַּת־בְּאֵרִ֖י הַֽחִתִּ֑י וְאֶת־בָּ֣שְׂמַ֔ת בַּת־אֵילֹ֖ן הַֽחִתִּֽי׃

26:35and they were a grief of mind unto Yitzchak and to Rivkah.

Vatihyena morat ruaḥ leYitzḥak uleRivkah.

להוַתִּֽהְיֶ֖יןָ מֹ֣רַת ר֑וּחַ לְיִצְחָ֖ק וּלְרִבְקָֽה׃

27:1And it came to pass, that when Yitzchak was old, and his eyes were dim, so that he could not see, he called Esav his elder son, and said unto him, “My son”; and he said unto him, “Here I am.”

Vayehi ki-zaken Yitzḥak vatiḥhena einav mere'ot vayikra et-Esav beno hagadol vayomer elav beni vayomer elav hineni.

אוַֽיְהִי֙ כִּֽי־זָקֵ֣ן יִצְחָ֔ק וַתִּכְהֶ֥יןָ עֵינָ֖יו מֵֽרְאֹ֑ת וַיִּקְרָ֞א אֶת־עֵשָׂ֣ו ׀ בְּנ֣וֹ הַגָּדֹ֗ל וַיֹּ֤אמֶר אֵלָיו֙ בְּנִ֔י וַיֹּ֥אמֶר אֵלָ֖יו הִנֵּֽנִי׃

27:2And he said, “Behold now, I am old, I do not know the day of my death.

Vayomer hineh-na zakanti lo yada'ti yom moti.

בוַיֹּ֕אמֶר הִנֵּה־נָ֖א זָקַ֑נְתִּי לֹ֥א יָדַ֖עְתִּי י֥וֹם מוֹתִֽי׃

27:3Now therefore take, I pray you, your weapons, your quiver and your bow, and go out to the field, and take me some game;

Ve'atah sa-na ḥeleḥa telyeḥa vekashteḥa vetze hasadeh vetzudah li tzayid.

27:4and make me savory food, such as I love, and bring it to me, that I may eat; that my soul may bless you before I die.”

Va'aseh-li mat'amim ka'asher ahavti vehavi'ah li ve'oḥelah ba'avur tevareḥḥa nafshi beterem amut.

27:5And Rivkah heard when Yitzchak spoke to Esav his son. And Esav went to the field to hunt for game, and to bring it.

VeRivkah shoma'at bedaber Yitzḥak el-Esav beno vayeleḥ Esav hasadeh latzud tzayid lehavi.

27:6And Rivkah spoke unto Yaakov her son, saying, “Behold, I heard your father speak unto Esav your brother, saying,

VeRivkah amerah el-Ya'akov benah lemor hineh shama'ti et-aviḥa medaber el-Esav aḥiḥa lemor.

27:7‘Bring me game, and make me savory food, that I may eat, and bless you before Hashem before my death.’

Havi'ah li tzayid va'aseh-li mat'amim ve'oḥelah va'avareḥḥah lifnei Adonai lifnei moti.

27:8Now therefore, my son, obey my voice according to that which I command you.

Ve'atah veni shema bekoli la'asher ani metzavah otaḥ.

חוְעַתָּ֥ה בְנִ֖י שְׁמַ֣ע בְּקֹלִ֑י לַֽאֲשֶׁ֥ר אֲנִ֖י מְצַוָּ֥ה אֹתָֽךְ׃

27:9Go now to the flock, and fetch me from there two good kids of the goats; and I will make them savory food for your father, such as he loves;

Leḥ-na el-hatzon vekaḥ-li misham shenei gedayei izim tovim ve'e'eseh otam mat'amim le'aviḥa ka'asher ahev.

27:10and you shall bring it to your father, that he may eat, and that he may bless you before his death.”

Veheveta le'aviḥa ve'aḥal ba'avur asher yevareḥḥa lifnei moto.

יוְהֵֽבֵאתָ֥ לְאָבִ֖יךָ וְאָכָ֑ל בַּֽעֲבֻ֛ר אֲשֶׁ֥ר יְבָֽרֶכְךָ֖ לִפְנֵ֥י מוֹתֽוֹ׃

27:11And Yaakov said to Rivkah his mother, “Behold, Esav my brother is a hairy man, and I am a smooth man.

Vayomer Ya'akov el-Rivkah imo hen Esav aḥi ish sa'ir ve'anoḥi ish ḥalak.

יאוַיֹּ֣אמֶר יַֽעֲקֹ֔ב אֶל־רִבְקָ֖ה אִמּ֑וֹ הֵ֣ן עֵשָׂ֤ו אָחִי֙ אִ֣ישׁ שָׂעִ֔ר וְאָֽנֹכִ֖י אִ֥ישׁ חָלָֽק׃

27:12Perhaps my father will feel me, and I shall seem to him as a deceiver; and I shall bring a curse upon me, and not a blessing.”

Ulay yemusheni avi vehayiti ve'einav kimta'tea veheveti alay kelalah velo veraḥah.

27:13And his mother said unto him, “Upon me be your curse, my son; only obey my voice, and go fetch them for me.”

Vatomer lo imo alay kilelateḥa beni aḥ shema bekoli veleḥ kaḥ-li.

יגוַתֹּ֤אמֶר לוֹ֙ אִמּ֔וֹ עָלַ֥י קִלְלָֽתְךָ֖ בְּנִ֑י אַ֛ךְ שְׁמַ֥ע בְּקֹלִ֖י וְלֵ֥ךְ קַח־לִֽי׃

27:14And he went, and fetched, and brought them to his mother; and his mother made savory food, such as his father loved.

Vayeleḥ vayikaḥ vayave le'imo vata'as imo mat'amim ka'asher ahev aviv.

27:15And Rivkah took the fine garments of her elder son Esav, which were with her in the house, and put them upon Yaakov her younger son;

Vatikaḥ Rivkah et-bigdei Esav benah hagadol haḥamudot asher itah babayit vatalbesh et-Ya'akov benah hakatan.

27:16and she put the skins of the kids of the goats upon his hands, and upon the smooth of his neck;

Ve'et orot gedayei ha'izim hilbishah al-yadav ve'al ḥelkat tzavarav.

טזוְאֵ֗ת עֹרֹת֙ גְּדָיֵ֣י הָֽעִזִּ֔ים הִלְבִּ֖ישָׁה עַל־יָדָ֑יו וְעַ֖ל חֶלְקַ֥ת צַוָּארָֽיו׃

27:17and she gave the savory food and the bread, which she had prepared, into the hand of her son Yaakov.

Vatiten et-hamat'amim ve'et-haleḥem asher asatah beyad Ya'akov benah.

יזוַתִּתֵּ֧ן אֶת־הַמַּטְעַמִּ֛ים וְאֶת־הַלֶּ֖חֶם אֲשֶׁ֣ר עָשָׂ֑תָה בְּיַ֖ד יַֽעֲקֹ֥ב בְּנָֽהּ׃

27:18And he came unto his father, and said, “My father”; and he said, “Here I am; who are you, my son?”

Vayavo el-aviv vayomer avi vayomer hineni mi atah beni.

יחוַיָּבֹ֥א אֶל־אָבִ֖יו וַיֹּ֣אמֶר אָבִ֑י וַיֹּ֣אמֶר הִנֶּ֔נִּי מִ֥י אַתָּ֖ה בְּנִֽי׃

27:19And Yaakov said unto his father, “I am Esav your firstborn; I have done as you told me. Arise, I pray you, sit and eat of my game, that your soul may bless me.”

Vayomer Ya'akov el-aviv anoḥi Esav beḥoreḥa asiti ka'asher dibarta elay kum-na shevah ve'oḥlah mitzeidi ba'avur tevaraḥani nafsheḥa.

27:20And Yitzchak said unto his son, “How is it that you have found it so quickly, my son?” And he said, “Because Hashem your God brought it to me.”

Vayomer Yitzḥak el-beno mah-zeh miharta limtzo beni vayomer ki hikrah Adonai eloheḥa lefanay.

כוַיֹּ֤אמֶר יִצְחָק֙ אֶל־בְּנ֔וֹ מַה־זֶּ֛ה מִהַ֥רְתָּ לִמְצֹ֖א בְּנִ֑י וַיֹּ֕אמֶר כִּ֥י הִקְרָ֛ה יְהֹוָ֥ה אֱלֹהֶ֖יךָ לְפָנָֽי׃

27:21And Yitzchak said unto Yaakov, “Come near, I pray you, that I may feel you, my son, whether you are my very son Esav or not.”

Vayomer Yitzḥak el-Ya'akov geshah-na va'amushḥa beni ha'atah zeh beni Esav im-lo.

כאוַיֹּ֤אמֶר יִצְחָק֙ אֶל־יַֽעֲקֹ֔ב גְּשָׁה־נָּ֥א וַֽאֲמֻֽשְׁךָ֖ בְּנִ֑י הַֽאַתָּ֥ה זֶ֛ה בְּנִ֥י עֵשָׂ֖ו אִם־לֹֽא׃

27:22And Yaakov went near unto Yitzchak his father; and he felt him, and said, “The voice is Yaakov’s voice, but the hands are the hands of Esav.”

Vayigash Ya'akov el-Yitzḥak aviv vayemushehu vayomer hakol kol Ya'akov vehayadayim yedei Esav.

כבוַיִּגַּ֧שׁ יַֽעֲקֹ֛ב אֶל־יִצְחָ֥ק אָבִ֖יו וַיְמֻשֵּׁ֑הוּ וַיֹּ֗אמֶר הַקֹּל֙ ק֣וֹל יַֽעֲקֹ֔ב וְהַיָּדַ֖יִם יְדֵ֥י עֵשָֽׂו׃

27:23And he did not recognize him, because his hands were hairy, as his brother Esav’s hands; so he blessed him.

Velo hikiro ki-hayu yadav kidei Esav aḥiv se'irot vayevaraḥehu.

כגוְלֹ֣א הִכִּיר֔וֹ כִּֽי־הָי֣וּ יָדָ֗יו כִּידֵ֛י עֵשָׂ֥ו אָחִ֖יו שְׂעִרֹ֑ת וַיְבָֽרֲכֵֽהוּ׃

27:24And he said, “Are you my very son Esav?” And he said, “I am.”

Vayomer atah zeh beni Esav vayomer ani.

כדוַיֹּ֕אמֶר אַתָּ֥ה זֶ֖ה בְּנִ֣י עֵשָׂ֑ו וַיֹּ֖אמֶר אָֽנִי׃

27:25And he said, “Bring it near to me, and I will eat of my son’s game, that my soul may bless you.” And he brought it near to him, and he ate; and he brought him wine, and he drank.

Vayomer hagishah li ve'oḥelah mitzeid beni lema'an tevareḥḥa nafshi vayagesh-lo vayoḥal vayave lo yayin vayesht.

כהוַיֹּ֗אמֶר הַגִּ֤שָׁה לִּי֙ וְאֹֽכְלָה֙ מִצֵּ֣יד בְּנִ֔י לְמַ֥עַן תְּבָֽרֶכְךָ֖ נַפְשִׁ֑י וַיַּגֶּשׁ־לוֹ֙ וַיֹּאכַ֔ל וַיָּ֧בֵא ל֦וֹ יַ֖יִן וַיֵּֽשְׁתְּ׃

27:26And his father Yitzchak said unto him, “Come near now, and kiss me, my son.”

Vayomer elav Yitzḥak aviv geshah-na ushakah-li beni.

כווַיֹּ֥אמֶר אֵלָ֖יו יִצְחָ֣ק אָבִ֑יו גְּשָׁה־נָּ֥א וּֽשֲׁקָה־לִּ֖י בְּנִֽי׃

27:27And he came near, and kissed him; and he smelled the smell of his garments, and blessed him, and said, “See, the smell of my son is as the smell of a field which Hashem has blessed.

Vayigash vayishak-lo vayaraḥ et-reiaḥ begadav vayevaraḥehu vayomer re'eh reiaḥ beni kereiaḥ sadeh asher beraḥo Adonai.

27:28Therefore God give you of the dew of heaven, and the fatness of the earth, and plenty of grain and wine.

Veyiten-leḥa ha'Elohim mital hashamayim umishmanei ha'aretz verov dagan vetirosh.

כחוְיִתֶּן־לְךָ֙ הָֽאֱלֹהִ֔ים מִטַּ֨ל הַשָּׁמַ֔יִם וּמִשְׁמַנֵּ֖י הָאָ֑רֶץ וְרֹ֥ב דָּגָ֖ן וְתִירֽשׁ׃

27:29Let peoples serve you, and nations bow down to you; be lord over your brothers, and let your mother’s sons bow down to you. Cursed be every one who curses you, and blessed be he who blesses you.”

Ya'avduḥa amim veyishtaḥavu leḥa le'umim heveh gevir le'aḥeḥa veyishtaḥavu leḥa benei imeḥa orareḥa arur umevaraḥeḥa baruḥ.

27:30And it came to pass, as soon as Yitzchak had made an end of blessing Yaakov, and Yaakov was yet scarcely gone out from the presence of Yitzchak his father, that Esav his brother came in from his hunting.

Vayehi ka'asher kilah Yitzḥak levareḥ et-Ya'akov vayehi aḥ yatzo yatza Ya'akov me'et penei Yitzḥak aviv ve'Esav aḥiv ba mitzeido.

27:31And he also had made savory food, and brought it unto his father, and said unto his father, “Let my father arise, and eat of his son’s game, that your soul may bless me.”

Vaya'as gam-hu mat'amim vayave le'aviv vayomer le'aviv yakum avi veyoḥal mitzeid beno ba'avur tevaraḥani nafsheḥa.

27:32And Yitzchak his father said unto him, “Who are you?” And he said, “I am your son, your firstborn, Esav.”

Vayomer lo Yitzḥak aviv mi-atah vayomer ani binḥa veḥoreḥa Esav.

27:33And Yitzchak trembled very exceedingly, and said, “Who? Where is he who has taken game, and brought it to me, and I have eaten of all before you came, and have blessed him? Yes, and he shall be blessed.”

Vayeḥerad Yitzḥak ḥaradah gedolah ad-me'od vayomer mi-efo hu hatzad-tzayid vayave li va'oḥal mikol beterem tavo va'avaraḥehu gam-baruḥ yihyeh.

27:34When Esav heard the words of his father, he cried with a great and exceedingly bitter cry, and said unto his father, “Bless me, even me also, O my father.”

Kishmoa Esav et-divrei aviv vayitz'ak tze'akah gedolah umarah ad-me'od vayomer le'aviv baraḥeni gam-ani avi.

27:35And he said, “Your brother came with deceit, and has taken away your blessing.”

Vayomer ba aḥiḥa bemirmah vayikaḥ birḥateḥa.

להוַיֹּ֕אמֶר בָּ֥א אָחִ֖יךָ בְּמִרְמָ֑ה וַיִּקַּ֖ח בִּרְכָתֶֽךָ׃

27:36And he said, “Is he not rightly named Yaakov? For he has supplanted me these two times: he took away my birthright; and, behold, now he has taken away my blessing.” And he said, “Have you not reserved a blessing for me?”

Vayomer haḥi kara shemo Ya'akov vaya'keveni zeh fa'amayim et-beḥorati lakaḥ vehineh atah lakaḥ birḥati vayomar halo-atzalta li beraḥah.

27:37And Yitzchak answered and said unto Esav, “Behold, I have made him your lord, and all his brothers have I given to him for servants; and with grain and wine have I sustained him; and what then shall I do for you, my son?”

Vaya'an Yitzḥak vayomer le'Esav hen gevir samtiv laḥ ve'et-kol-eḥav natati lo la'avadim vedagan vetirosh semaḥtiv uleḥah efo mah e'eseh beni.

27:38And Esav said unto his father, “Have you but one blessing, my father? Bless me, even me also, O my father.” And Esav lifted up his voice, and wept.

Vayomer Esav el-aviv havaraḥah aḥat hi-leḥa avi baraḥeni gam-ani avi vayisa Esav kolo vayevk.

27:39And Yitzchak his father answered and said unto him, “Behold, your dwelling shall be the fatness of the earth, and of the dew of heaven from above;

Vaya'an Yitzḥak aviv vayomer elav hineh mishmanei ha'aretz yihyeh moshaveḥa umital hashamayim me'al.

27:40and by your sword shall you live, and shall serve your brother; and it shall come to pass when you shall have the dominion, that you shall break his yoke from off your neck.”

27:41And Esav hated Yaakov because of the blessing with which his father blessed him; and Esav said in his heart, “The days of mourning for my father are at hand; then will I slay my brother Yaakov.”

Vayistom Esav et-Ya'akov al-haberaḥah asher beraḥo aviv vayomer Esav belibo yikrevu yemei evel avi ve'ahargah et-Ya'akov aḥi.

27:42And these words of Esav her elder son were told to Rivkah; and she sent and called Yaakov her younger son, and said unto him, “Behold, your brother Esav, as touching you, comforts himself, purposing to kill you.

Vayugad leRivkah et-divrei Esav benah hagadol vatishlaḥ vatikra leYa'akov benah hakatan vatomer elav hineh Esav aḥiḥa mitnaḥem leḥa lehorgeḥa.

27:43Now therefore, my son, obey my voice; and arise, flee to Lavan my brother to Charan (Haran);

Ve'atah veni shema bekoli vekum beraḥ-leḥa el-Lavan aḥi Ḥaranah.

מגוְעַתָּ֥ה בְנִ֖י שְׁמַ֣ע בְּקֹלִ֑י וְק֧וּם בְּרַח־לְךָ֛ אֶל־לָבָ֥ן אָחִ֖י חָרָֽנָה׃

27:44and stay with him a few days, until your brother’s fury turns away;

Veyashavta imo yamim aḥadim ad asher-tashuv ḥamat aḥiḥa.

מדוְיָֽשַׁבְתָּ֥ עִמּ֖וֹ יָמִ֣ים אֲחָדִ֑ים עַ֥ד אֲשֶׁר־תָּשׁ֖וּב חֲמַ֥ת אָחִֽיךָ׃

27:45until your brother’s anger turns away from you, and he forgets that which you have done to him; then I will send, and fetch you from there. Why should I be deprived also of you both in one day?”

Ad-shuv af-aḥiḥa mimeḥa veshaḥaḥ et asher-asita lo veshalaḥti ulekaḥtiḥa misham lamah eshkal gam-sheneiḥem yom eḥad.

27:46And Rivkah said to Yitzchak, “I am weary of my life because of the daughters of Chet (Heth). If Yaakov takes a wife of the daughters of Chet, such as these which are of the daughters of the land, what good shall my life do me?”

Vatomer Rivkah el-Yitzḥak katzti veḥayay mipenei benot Ḥet im-lokeaḥ Ya'akov ishah mibenot-Ḥet ka'eleh mibenot ha'aretz lamah li ḥayim.

28:1And Yitzchak called Yaakov, and blessed him, and charged him, and said unto him, “You shall not take a wife of the daughters of Kena’an (Canaan).

Vayikra Yitzḥak el-Ya'akov vayevareḥ oto vayetzavehu vayomer lo lo-tikaḥ ishah mibenot Kena'an.

28:2Arise, go to Paddan-Aram, to the house of Betu’el your mother’s father; and take a wife from there of the daughters of Lavan your mother’s brother.

Kum leḥ Padenah Aram beitah Vetu'el avi imeḥa vekaḥ-leḥa misham ishah mibenot Lavan aḥi imeḥa.

28:3And God Almighty bless you, and make you fruitful, and multiply you, that you may be a multitude of peoples;

Ve'el Shadai yevareḥ oteḥa veyafreḥa veyarbeḥa vehayita likhal amim.

גוְאֵ֤ל שַׁדַּי֨ יְבָרֵ֣ךְ אֹֽתְךָ֔ וְיַפְרְךָ֖ וְיַרְבֶּ֑ךָ וְהָיִ֖יתָ לִקְהַ֥ל עַמִּֽים׃

28:4and give you the blessing of Avraham, to you, and to your seed with you; that you may inherit the land in which you are a stranger, which God gave unto Avraham.”

Veyiten-leḥa et-birkat Avraham leḥa ulezar'aḥa itaḥ lerishteḥa et-eretz megureḥa asher-natan Elohim le'Avraham.

28:5And Yitzchak sent away Yaakov; and he went to Paddan-Aram unto Lavan, son of Betu’el the Arami, the brother of Rivkah, Yaakov’s and Esav’s mother.

Vayishlaḥ Yitzḥak et-Ya'akov vayeleḥ Padenah Aram el-Lavan ben-Betu'el ha'Arami aḥi Rivkah em Ya'akov ve'Esav.

28:6When Esav saw that Yitzchak had blessed Yaakov, and sent him away to Paddan-Aram, to take him a wife from there; and that as he blessed him he gave him a charge, saying, “You shall not take a wife of the daughters of Kena’an”;

Vayar Esav ki-veraḥ Yitzḥak et-Ya'akov veshilaḥ oto Padenah Aram lakaḥat-lo misham ishah bevaraḥo oto vayetzav alav lemor lo-tikaḥ ishah mibenot Kena'an.

28:7and that Yaakov obeyed his father and his mother, and had gone to Paddan-Aram;

Vayishma Ya'akov el-aviv ve'el-imo vayeleḥ Padenah Aram.

זוַיִּשְׁמַ֣ע יַֽעֲקֹ֔ב אֶל־אָבִ֖יו וְאֶל־אִמּ֑וֹ וַיֵּ֖לֶךְ פַּדֶּ֣נָֽה אֲרָֽם׃

28:8and Esav saw that the daughters of Kena’an did not please Yitzchak his father;

Vayar Esav ki ra'ot benot Kena'an be'einei Yitzḥak aviv.

חוַיַּ֣רְא עֵשָׂ֔ו כִּ֥י רָע֖וֹת בְּנ֣וֹת כְּנָ֑עַן בְּעֵינֵ֖י יִצְחָ֥ק אָבִֽיו׃

28:9then Esav went unto Yishma’el (Ishmael), and took, besides the wives that he had, Machalat (Mahalath) the daughter of Yishma’el, Avraham’s son, the sister of Nevayot (Nebajoth), to be his wife.

Vayeleḥ Esav el-Yishma'el vayikaḥ et-Maḥalat bat-Yishma'el ben-Avraham aḥot Nevayot al-nashav lo le'ishah.

28:7and that Yaakov obeyed his father and his mother, and had gone to Paddan-Aram;

28:8and Esav saw that the daughters of Kena’an did not please Yitzchak his father;

1:1The burden of the word of Hashem to Yisrael (Israel) by Malachi.

Masa devar-Adonai el-Yisra'el beyad Mal'aḥi.

אמַשָּׂ֥א דְבַר־יְהֹוָ֖ה אֶל־יִשְׂרָאֵ֑ל בְּיַ֖ד מַלְאָכִֽי׃

1:2“I have loved you,” says Hashem. Yet you say, “In what way have You loved us?” “Was not Esav Yaakov’s brother?” says Hashem. “Yet I loved Yaakov,

Ahavti etḥem amar Adonai va'amartem bamah ahavtanu halo-aḥ Esav leYa'akov ne'um-Adonai va'ohav et-Ya'akov.

1:3and I hated Esav, and laid his mountains and his heritage waste for the jackals of the wilderness.”

Ve'et-Esav saneti va'asim et-harav shemamah ve'et-naḥalato letanot midbar.

1:4Whereas Edom says, “We are impoverished, but we will return and build the desolate places,” thus says Hashem of hosts: “They shall build, but I will throw down; and they shall call them ‘The border of wickedness,’ and ‘The people against whom Hashem has indignation forever.’

Ki-tomar Edom rushashnu venashuv venivneh ḥoravot koh amar Adonai tzeva'ot hemah yivnu va'ani eheros vekare'u lahem gevul rish'ah veha'am asher-za'am Adonai ad-olam.

1:5And your eyes shall see, and you shall say, ‘Hashem will be magnified from the border of Yisrael.’

Ve'eineiḥem tir'enah ve'atem tomeru yigdal Adonai me'al ligvul Yisra'el.

1:6A son honors his father, and a servant his master. If then I am a father, where is My honor? And if I am a master, where is My fear?” says Hashem of hosts unto you, O priests, who despise My name. “And you say, ‘In what way have we despised Your name?’

Ben yeḥabed av ve'eved adonav ve'im-av ani ayeh ḥevodi ve'im-adonim ani ayeh mora'i amar Adonai tzeva'ot laḥem hakohanim bozei shemi va'amartem bameh vazinu et-shemeḥa.

1:7You offer polluted bread upon My altar; and you say, ‘In what way have we polluted You?’ In that you say, ‘The table of Hashem is contemptible.’

Magishim al-mizbeḥi leḥem mego'al va'amartem bameh ge'alnuḥa be'emareḥem shulḥan Adonai nivzeh hu.

1:8And if you offer the blind for sacrifice, is it not evil? And if you offer the lame and sick, is it not evil? Offer it now unto your governor; will he be pleased with you, or accept your person?” says Hashem of hosts.

Veḥi-tagishun iver lizboaḥ ein ra veḥi tagishu piseaḥ veḥoleh ein ra hakrivehu na lefeḥateḥa hayirtzeḥa o hayisa faneḥa amar Adonai tzeva'ot.

1:9“And now, I pray you, beseech God that He will be gracious unto us. This has been by your means; will He regard your persons?” says Hashem of hosts.

Ve'atah ḥalu-na fenei-el viḥanenu miyedḥem hayetah zot hayisa mikem panim amar Adonai tzeva'ot.

1:10“Who is there even among you that would shut the doors for nothing? Neither do you kindle fire on My altar for nothing. I have no pleasure in you,” says Hashem of hosts, “nor will I accept an offering at your hand.

Mi gam-baḥem veyisgor delatayim velo-ta'iru mizbeḥi ḥinam ein-li ḥefetz baḥem amar Adonai tzeva'ot uminḥah lo-ertzeh miyedḥem.

1:11For from the rising of the sun even unto the going down of the same, My name shall be great among the nations; and in every place incense shall be offered unto My name, and a pure offering; for My name shall be great among the nations,” says Hashem of hosts.

1:12“But you have profaned it, in that you say, ‘The table of the Lord is polluted; and its fruit, even its food, is contemptible.’

1:13You said also, ‘Behold, what a weariness it is!’ and you have sniffed at it,” says Hashem of hosts; “and you brought that which was torn, and the lame, and the sick; thus you brought the offering. Should I accept this from your hand?” says Hashem.

1:14“But cursed be the deceiver, who has in his flock a male, and vows, and sacrifices unto the Lord a corrupt thing; for I am a great King,” says Hashem of hosts, “and My name is to be feared among the nations.

2:1And now, O you priests, this commandment is for you.

Ve'atah aleiḥem hamitzvah hazot hakohanim.

2:2If you will not hear, and if you will not lay it to heart, to give glory unto My name,” says Hashem of hosts, “I will even send a curse upon you, and I will curse your blessings; yes, I have cursed them already, because you do not lay it to heart.

2:3Behold, I will corrupt your seed, and spread dung upon your faces, even the dung of your festivals; and you shall be taken away with it.

2:4And you shall know that I have sent this commandment unto you, that My covenant might be with Levi,” says Hashem of hosts.

Vida'tem ki shilaḥti aleiḥem et hamitzvah hazot lihyot beriti et-Levi amar Adonai tzeva'ot.

2:5“My covenant was with him of life and peace, and I gave them to him for the fear with which he feared Me, and was afraid before My name.

2:6The law of truth was in his mouth, and iniquity was not found in his lips; he walked with Me in peace and equity, and turned many away from iniquity.

2:7For the priest’s lips should keep knowledge, and they should seek the law at his mouth; for he is the messenger of Hashem of hosts.”

20:18Then Yehonatan (Jonathan) said to David, “Tomorrow is the new moon (Rosh Chodesh); and you will be missed, because your seat will be empty.

20:19And when you have stayed three days, then you shall go down quickly, and come to the place where you hid yourself when the matter was in hand, and shall remain by the stone Ezel.

20:21And, behold, I will send a lad, saying, ‘Go, find the arrows.’ If I expressly say unto the lad, ‘Behold, the arrows are on this side of you, take them,’ then come; for there is peace to you, and no harm, as Hashem lives.

כאוְהִנֵּה֙ אֶשְׁלַ֣ח אֶת־הַנַּ֔עַר לֵ֖ךְ מְצָ֣א אֶת־הַחִצִּ֑ים אִם־אָמֹר֩ אֹמַ֨ר לַנַּ֜עַר הִנֵּ֥ה הַחִצִּ֣ים ׀ מִמְּךָ֣ וָהֵ֗נָּה קָחֶ֧נּוּ ׀ וָבֹ֛אָה כִּֽי־שָׁל֥וֹם לְךָ֛ וְאֵ֥ין דָּבָ֖ר חַי־יְהֹוָֽה׃

20:22But if I say thus unto the young man, ‘Behold, the arrows are beyond you,’ go your way; for Hashem has sent you away.

Ve'im-koh omar la'elem hineh haḥitzim mimeḥa vahale'ah leḥ ki shilaḥaḥa Adonai.

כבוְאִם־כֹּ֚ה אֹמַר֙ לָעֶ֔לֶם הִנֵּ֥ה הַחִצִּ֖ים מִמְּךָ֣ וָהָ֑לְאָה לֵ֕ךְ כִּ֥י שִֽׁלַּחֲךָ֖ יְהֹוָֽה׃

20:23And as touching the matter which you and I have spoken of, behold, Hashem is between you and me forever.”

Vehadavar asher dibarnu ani va'atah hineh Adonai beini uveineḥa ad-olam.

כגוְהַ֨דָּבָ֔ר אֲשֶׁ֥ר דִּבַּ֖רְנוּ אֲנִ֣י וָאָ֑תָּה הִנֵּ֧ה יְהֹוָ֛ה בֵּינִ֥י וּבֵינְךָ֖ עַד־עוֹלָֽם׃

20:24So David hid himself in the field; and when the new moon had come, the king sat down to eat food.

Vayisater David basadeh vayehi haḥodesh vayeshev hameleḥ el-haleḥem le'eḥol.

כדוַיִּסָּתֵ֥ר דָּוִ֖ד בַּשָּׂדֶ֑ה וַיְהִ֣י הַחֹ֔דֶשׁ וַיֵּ֧שֶׁב הַמֶּ֛לֶךְ אֶל־ (כתיב עֶל־) הַלֶּ֖חֶם לֶאֱכֽוֹל׃

20:25And the king sat upon his seat, as at other times, upon the seat by the wall; and Yehonatan arose, and Avner (Abner) sat by Shaul’s (Saul’s) side, and David’s place was empty.

Vayeshev hameleḥ al-moshavo kefa'am befa'am el-moshav hakir vayakom Yehonatan vayeshev Avner mitzad Sha'ul vayipaked mekom David.

כהוַיֵּ֣שֶׁב הַ֠מֶּלֶךְ עַל־מ֨וֹשָׁב֜וֹ כְּפַ֣עַם ׀ בְּפַ֗עַם אֶל־מוֹשַׁב֙ הַקִּ֔יר וַיָּ֙קָם֙ יְה֣וֹנָתָ֔ן וַיֵּ֥שֶׁב אַבְנֵ֖ר מִצַּ֣ד שָׁא֑וּל וַיִּפָּקֵ֖ד מְק֥וֹם דָּוִֽד׃

20:26Nevertheless Shaul did not speak anything that day; for he thought, “Something has happened to him; he is not clean; surely he is not clean.”

Velo-diber Sha'ul me'umah bayom hahu ki amar mikreh hu bilti tahor hu ki-lo tahor.

כווְלֹֽא־דִבֶּ֥ר שָׁא֛וּל מְא֖וּמָה בַּיּ֣וֹם הַה֑וּא כִּ֚י אָמַר֙ מִקְרֶ֣ה ה֔וּא בִּלְתִּ֥י טָה֛וֹר ה֖וּא כִּֽי־לֹ֥א טָהֽוֹר׃

20:27And it came to pass on the next day, which was the second day of the month, that David’s place was empty; and Shaul said unto Yehonatan his son, “Why has the son of Yishai (Jesse) not come to the meal, neither yesterday nor today?”

Vayehi mimoḥorat haḥodesh hasheni vayipaked mekom David vayomer Sha'ul el-Yehonatan beno madua lo-va ven-Yishai gam-temol gam-hayom el-halaḥem.

כזוַיְהִ֗י מִֽמָּחֳרַ֚ת הַחֹ֙דֶשׁ֙ הַשֵּׁנִ֔י וַיִּפָּקֵ֖ד מְק֣וֹם דָּוִ֑ד ס וַיֹּ֚אמֶר שָׁאוּל֙ אֶל־יְהוֹנָתָ֣ן בְּנ֔וֹ מַדּ֜וּעַ לֹא־בָ֧א בֶן־יִשַׁ֛י גַּם־תְּמ֥וֹל גַּם־הַיּ֖וֹם אֶל־הַלָּֽחֶם׃

20:28And Yehonatan answered Shaul, “David earnestly asked leave of me to go to Beit Lechem (Bethlehem).

Vaya'an Yehonatan et-Sha'ul nish'ol nish'al David me'imadi ad-Beit Laḥem.

כחוַיַּ֥עַן יְהוֹנָתָ֖ן אֶת־שָׁא֑וּל נִשְׁאֹ֨ל נִשְׁאַ֥ל דָּוִ֛ד מֵעִמָּדִ֖י עַד־בֵּ֥ית לָֽחֶם׃

20:29And he said, ‘Let me go, I pray you; for our family has a sacrifice in the city, and my brother has commanded me to be there; and now, if I have found favor in your eyes, let me get away, I pray you, and see my brothers.’ Therefore he has not come unto the king’s table.”

Vayomer shaleḥeni na ki zevaḥ mishpaḥah lanu ba'ir vehu tzivah-li aḥi ve'atah im-matzati ḥen be'eineḥa imaletah na ve'er'eh et-eḥay al-ken lo-va el-shulḥan hameleḥ.

כטוַיֹּ֡אמֶר שַׁלְּחֵ֣נִי נָ֡א כִּ֣י זֶבַח֩ מִשְׁפָּחָ֨ה לָ֜נוּ בָּעִ֗יר וְה֚וּא צִוָּֽה־לִי֙ אָחִ֔י וְעַתָּ֗ה אִם־מָצָ֚אתִי חֵן֙ בְּעֵינֶ֔יךָ אִמָּ֥לְטָה נָּ֖א וְאֶרְאֶ֣ה אֶת־אֶחָ֑י עַל־כֵּ֣ן לֹא־בָ֔א אֶל־שֻׁלְחַ֖ן הַמֶּֽלֶךְ׃

20:30Then Shaul’s anger was kindled against Yehonatan, and he said unto him, “You son of the perverse, rebellious woman! Do I not know that you have chosen the son of Yishai to your own shame, and unto the shame of your mother’s nakedness?

Vayiḥar-af Sha'ul biYhonatan vayomer lo ben-na'avat hamardut halo yada'ti ki-voḥer atah leven-Yishai levoshteḥa ulevoshet ervat imeḥa.

לוַיִּֽחַר־אַ֚ף שָׁאוּל֙ בִּיה֣וֹנָתָ֔ן וַיֹּ֣אמֶר ל֔וֹ בֶּֽן־נַעֲוַ֖ת הַמַּרְדּ֑וּת הֲל֣וֹא יָדַ֗עְתִּי כִּֽי־בֹחֵ֚ר אַתָּה֙ לְבֶן־יִשַׁ֔י לְבָ֨שְׁתְּךָ֔ וּלְב֖שֶׁת עֶרְוַ֥ת אִמֶּֽךָ׃

20:31For as long as the son of Yishai lives upon the ground, you shall not be established, nor your kingdom. Therefore now send and bring him unto me, for he shall surely die.”

Ki ḥol-hayamim asher ben-Yishai ḥay al-ha'adamah lo tikon atah umalḥuteḥa ve'atah shelaḥ vekaḥ oto elay ki ven-mavet hu.

לאכִּ֣י כָל־הַיָּמִ֗ים אֲשֶׁ֚ר בֶּן־יִשַׁי֙ חַ֣י עַל־הָאֲדָמָ֔ה לֹ֥א תִכּ֖וֹן אַתָּ֣ה וּמַלְכוּתֶ֑ךָ וְעַתָּ֗ה שְׁלַ֨ח וְקַ֚ח אֹתוֹ֙ אֵלַ֔י כִּ֥י בֶן־מָ֖וֶת הֽוּא׃

20:32And Yehonatan answered Shaul his father, and said unto him, “Why should he be put to death? What has he done?”

Vaya'an Yehonatan et-Sha'ul aviv vayomer elav lamah yumat meh asah.

לבוַיַּ֙עַן֙ יְה֣וֹנָתָ֔ן אֶת־שָׁא֖וּל אָבִ֑יו וַיֹּ֧אמֶר אֵלָ֛יו לָ֥מָּה יוּמַ֖ת מֶ֥ה עָשָֹֽה׃

20:33And Shaul cast a spear at him to strike him; by which Yehonatan knew that it was determined by his father to put David to death.

Vayatel Sha'ul et-haḥanit alav lehakoto vayeda Yehonatan ki-ḥalah hi me'im aviv lehamit et-David.

לגוַיָּ֨טֶל שָׁא֧וּל אֶֽת־הַחֲנִ֛ית עָלָ֖יו לְהַכֹּת֑וֹ וַיֵּ֙דַע֙ יְה֣וֹנָתָ֔ן כִּֽי־כָ֥לָה הִ֛יא מֵעִ֥ם אָבִ֖יו לְהָמִ֥ית אֶת־דָּוִֽד׃

20:34So Yehonatan arose from the table in fierce anger, and ate no food the second day of the month; for he was grieved for David, because his father had put him to shame.

Vayakom Yehonatan me'im hashulḥan boḥori-af velo-aḥal beyom-haḥodesh hasheni leḥem ki ne'tzav el-David ki hiḥlimo aviv.

לדוַיָּ֧קָם יְהוֹנָתָ֛ן מֵעִ֥ם הַשֻּׁלְחָ֖ן בָּחֳרִי־אָ֑ף וְלֹא־אָכַ֞ל בְּיוֹם־הַחֹ֚דֶשׁ הַשֵּׁנִי֙ לֶ֔חֶם כִּ֚י נֶעְצַב֙ אֶל־דָּוִ֔ד כִּ֥י הִכְלִמ֖וֹ אָבִֽיו׃

20:35And it came to pass in the morning, that Yehonatan went out into the field at the time appointed with David, and a little lad with him.

Vayehi vaboker vayetze Yehonatan hasadeh lemo'ed David vena'ar katon imo.

להוַיְהִ֣י בַבֹּ֔קֶר וַיֵּצֵ֧א יְהוֹנָתָ֛ן הַשָּׂדֶ֖ה לְמוֹעֵ֣ד דָּוִ֑ד וְנַ֥עַר קָטֹ֖ן עִמּֽוֹ׃

20:36And he said unto his lad, “Run, find now the arrows which I shoot.” And as the lad ran, he shot an arrow beyond him.

Vayomer lena'aro rutz metza na et-haḥitzim asher anoḥi moreh hana'ar ratz vehu-yarah haḥetzi leha'aviro.

לווַיֹּ֣אמֶר לְנַעֲר֔וֹ רֻ֗ץ מְצָ֥א נָא֙ אֶת־הַ֣חִצִּ֔ים אֲשֶׁ֥ר אָנֹכִ֖י מוֹרֶ֑ה הַנַּ֣עַר רָ֔ץ וְהֽוּא־יָרָ֥ה הַחֵ֖צִי לְהַעֲבִרֽוֹ׃

20:37And when the lad had come to the place of the arrow which Yehonatan had shot, Yehonatan cried after the lad, and said, “Is not the arrow beyond you?”

Vayavo hana'ar ad-mekom haḥetzi asher yarah Yehonatan vayikra Yehonatan aḥarei hana'ar vayomer halo haḥetzi mimeḥa vahale'ah.

לזוַיָּבֹ֚א הַנַּ֙עַר֙ עַד־מְק֣וֹם הַחֵ֔צִי אֲשֶׁ֥ר יָרָ֖ה יְהוֹנָתָ֑ן וַיִּקְרָ֨א יְהוֹנָתָ֜ן אַחֲרֵ֚י הַנַּ֙עַר֙ וַיֹּ֔אמֶר הֲל֥וֹא הַחֵ֖צִי מִמְּךָ֥ וָהָֽלְאָה׃

20:38And Yehonatan cried after the lad, “Make speed, hurry, do not stay!” And Yehonatan’s lad gathered up the arrows, and came to his master.

Vayikra Yehonatan aḥarei hana'ar meherah ḥushah al-ta'amod vayelaket na'ar Yehonatan et-haḥitzim vayavo el-adonav.

לחוַיִּקְרָ֚א יְהֽוֹנָתָן֙ אַחֲרֵ֣י הַנַּ֔עַר מְהֵרָ֥ה ח֖וּשָׁה אַֽל־תַּעֲמֹ֑ד וַיְלַקֵּ֞ט נַ֚עַר יְהֽוֹנָתָן֙ אֶת־הַ֣חִצִּ֔ים (כתיב הַ֣חִצִּ֔י) וַיָּבֹ֖א אֶל־אֲדֹנָֽיו׃

20:39But the lad knew nothing; only Yehonatan and David knew the matter.

Vehana'ar lo-yada me'umah aḥ Yehonatan veDavid yade'u et-hadavar.

לטוְהַנַּ֖עַר לֹֽא־יָדַ֣ע מְא֑וּמָה אַ֚ךְ יְהֽוֹנָתָן֙ וְדָוִ֔ד יָדְע֖וּ אֶת־הַדָּבָֽר׃

20:40And Yehonatan gave his weapons unto his lad, and said unto him, “Go, carry them to the city.”

Vayiten Yehonatan et-kelav el-hana'ar asher-lo vayomer lo leḥ havei ha'ir.

מוַיִּתֵּ֚ן יְהֽוֹנָתָן֙ אֶת־כֵּלָ֔יו אֶל־הַנַּ֖עַר אֲשֶׁר־ל֑וֹ וַיֹּ֣אמֶר ל֔וֹ לֵ֖ךְ הָבֵ֥יא הָעִֽיר׃

20:41And as soon as the lad was gone, David arose out of a place toward the south, and fell on his face to the ground, and bowed himself three times; and they kissed one another, and wept one with another, until David exceeded.

Hana'ar ba veDavid kam me'etzel hanegev vayipol le'apav artzah vayishtaḥu shalosh pe'amim vayisheku ish et-re'ehu vayivku ish et-re'ehu ad-David higdil.

מאהַנַּעַר֘ בָּא֒ וְדָוִ֗ד ֤קָם מֵאֵ֣צֶל הַנֶּ֔גֶב וַיִּפֹּ֨ל לְאַפָּ֥יו אַ֛רְצָה וַיִּשְׁתַּ֖חוּ שָׁל֣שׁ פְּעָמִ֑ים וַֽיִּשְּׁק֣וּ ׀ אִ֣ישׁ אֶת־רֵעֵ֗הוּ וַיִּבְכּוּ֙ אִ֣ישׁ אֶת־רֵעֵ֔הוּ עַד־דָּוִ֖ד הִגְדִּֽיל׃

20:42And Yehonatan said to David, “Go in peace, since we have sworn both of us in the name of Hashem, saying, ‘Hashem be between me and you, and between my seed and your seed forever.’”

Vayomer Yehonatan leDavid leḥ leshalom asher nishba'nu sheneinu anaḥnu beshem Adonai lemor Adonai yihyeh beini uveineḥa uvein zar'i uvein zar'aḥa ad-olam.
