BES La Biblia en Español Sencillo 2026 WEB World English Bible (clásica, con deuterocanónicos) 1 Cuando Isaac ya era anciano y casi no podía ver, llamó a Esaú, su hijo mayor, y le dijo: «Hijo mío». Esaú respondió: «Aquí estoy». 1 When Isaac was old, and his eyes were dim, so that he could not see, he called Esau his elder son, and said to him, “My son?” He said to him, “Here I am.”
2 Isaac dijo: «Ya soy viejo y no sé cuándo voy a morir. 2 He said, “See now, I am old. I don’t know the day of my death.
3 Toma tus armas, tu arco y tus flechas, y ve al campo a cazar algo para mí. 3 Now therefore, please take your weapons, your quiver and your bow, and go out to the field, and get me venison.
4 Prepárame una comida sabrosa como a mí me gusta y tráemela para que coma. Entonces te bendeciré antes de morir». 4 Make me savory food, such as I love, and bring it to me, that I may eat, and that my soul may bless you before I die.”
5 Rebeca estaba escuchando mientras Isaac hablaba con su hijo Esaú. Cuando Esaú salió al campo para cazar algo, 5 Rebekah heard when Isaac spoke to Esau his son. Esau went to the field to hunt for venison, and to bring it.
6 Rebeca dijo a su hijo Jacob: «Acabo de oír a tu padre decir a tu hermano Esaú: 6 Rebekah spoke to Jacob her son, saying, “Behold, I heard your father speak to Esau your brother, saying,
7 “Tráeme un animal y prepárame una comida sabrosa para que coma y te bendiga delante del Señor antes de morir”. 7 ‘Bring me venison, and make me savory food, that I may eat, and bless you before Yahweh before my death.’
8 Ahora, hijo mío, escúchame y haz exactamente lo que te digo. 8 Now therefore, my son, obey my voice according to that which I command you.
9 Ve al rebaño y tráeme dos buenos cabritos. Yo prepararé con ellos una comida sabrosa para tu padre, como a él le gusta. 9 Go now to the flock and get me two good young goats from there. I will make them savory food for your father, such as he loves.
10 Tú se la llevarás para que coma y te bendiga antes de morir». 10 You shall bring it to your father, that he may eat, so that he may bless you before his death.”
11 Jacob dijo a Rebeca, su madre: «Mi hermano Esaú tiene mucho pelo, pero yo tengo la piel lisa. 11 Jacob said to Rebekah his mother, “Behold, Esau my brother is a hairy man, and I am a smooth man.
12 Si mi padre me toca, pensará que me estoy burlando de él. Entonces traeré sobre mí una maldición en vez de una bendición». 12 What if my father touches me? I will seem to him as a deceiver, and I would bring a curse on myself, and not a blessing.”
13 Su madre respondió: «Que esa maldición caiga sobre mí, hijo mío. Solo haz lo que te digo. Ve y tráeme los cabritos». 13 His mother said to him, “Let your curse be on me, my son. Only obey my voice, and go get them for me.”
14 Jacob fue, tomó los cabritos y los llevó a su madre. Ella preparó una comida sabrosa, como le gustaba a su padre. 14 He went, and got them, and brought them to his mother. His mother made savory food, such as his father loved.
15 Rebeca tomó la mejor ropa de Esaú, su hijo mayor, que tenía en la casa, y vistió con ella a Jacob, su hijo menor. 15 Rebekah took the good clothes of Esau, her elder son, which were with her in the house, and put them on Jacob, her younger son.
16 Luego cubrió las manos y la parte lisa del cuello de Jacob con las pieles de los cabritos. 16 She put the skins of the young goats on his hands, and on the smooth of his neck.
17 Después puso en las manos de Jacob la comida y el pan que había preparado. 17 She gave the savory food and the bread, which she had prepared, into the hand of her son Jacob.
18 Jacob fue a su padre y dijo: «Padre mío». Isaac respondió: «Aquí estoy. ¿Quién eres, hijo mío?». 18 He came to his father, and said, “My father?” He said, “Here I am. Who are you, my son?”
19 Jacob respondió a su padre: «Soy Esaú, tu hijo mayor. He hecho lo que me pediste. Siéntate y come de lo que cacé, para que me bendigas». 19 Jacob said to his father, “I am Esau your firstborn. I have done what you asked me to do. Please arise, sit and eat of my venison, that your soul may bless me.”
20 Isaac preguntó: «¿Cómo lo encontraste tan pronto, hijo mío?». Jacob respondió: «Porque el Señor tu Dios hizo que lo encontrara». 20 Isaac said to his son, “How is it that you have found it so quickly, my son?” He said, “Because Yahweh your God gave me success.”
21 Isaac dijo: «Acércate para que pueda tocarte, hijo mío, y saber si de verdad eres Esaú». 21 Isaac said to Jacob, “Please come near, that I may feel you, my son, whether you are really my son Esau or not.”
22 Jacob se acercó a su padre Isaac. Isaac lo tocó y dijo: «La voz es la voz de Jacob, pero las manos son las manos de Esaú». 22 Jacob went near to Isaac his father. He felt him, and said, “The voice is Jacob’s voice, but the hands are the hands of Esau.”
23 No lo reconoció porque sus manos tenían pelo como las de Esaú. Entonces lo bendijo. 23 He didn’t recognize him, because his hands were hairy, like his brother Esau’s hands. So he blessed him.
24 Isaac volvió a preguntar: «¿De verdad eres mi hijo Esaú?». Jacob respondió: «Sí». 24 He said, “Are you really my son Esau?” He said, “I am.”
25 Isaac dijo: «Tráeme la comida para que coma de lo que cazó mi hijo y luego te bendiga». Jacob se la llevó, y él comió. También le llevó vino, y bebió. 25 He said, “Bring it near to me, and I will eat of my son’s venison, that my soul may bless you.” He brought it near to him, and he ate. He brought him wine, and he drank.
26 Entonces su padre Isaac le dijo: «Acércate, hijo mío, y bésame». 26 His father Isaac said to him, “Come near now, and kiss me, my son.”
27 Jacob se acercó y lo besó. Cuando Isaac olió su ropa, lo bendijo diciendo: «El olor de mi hijo es como el olor de un campo bendecido por el Señor. 27 He came near, and kissed him. He smelled the smell of his clothing, and blessed him, and said, “Behold, the smell of my son is as the smell of a field which Yahweh has blessed.
28 Que Dios te dé el rocío del cielo, la riqueza de la tierra y abundancia de grano y vino. 28 God give you of the dew of the sky, of the fatness of the earth, and plenty of grain and new wine.
29 Que los pueblos te sirvan y las naciones se inclinen ante ti. Sé señor de tus hermanos, y que los hijos de tu madre se inclinen ante ti. Maldito sea el que te maldiga y bendito el que te bendiga». 29 Let peoples serve you, and nations bow down to you. Be lord over your brothers. Let your mother’s sons bow down to you. Cursed be everyone who curses you. Blessed be everyone who blesses you.”
30 Apenas Isaac terminó de bendecir a Jacob, y Jacob acababa de salir, llegó Esaú de cazar. 30 As soon as Isaac had finished blessing Jacob, and Jacob had just gone out from the presence of Isaac his father, Esau his brother came in from his hunting.
31 También preparó una comida sabrosa, se la llevó a su padre y dijo: «Padre mío, levántate y come de lo que ha cazado tu hijo, para que me bendigas». 31 He also made savory food, and brought it to his father. He said to his father, “Let my father arise, and eat of his son’s venison, that your soul may bless me.”
32 Su padre Isaac preguntó: «¿Quién eres?». Esaú respondió: «Soy tu hijo mayor, Esaú». 32 Isaac his father said to him, “Who are you?” He said, “I am your son, your firstborn, Esau.”
33 Isaac comenzó a temblar con mucha fuerza y dijo: «Entonces, ¿quién fue el que cazó algo y me lo trajo? Yo comí de todo antes de que llegaras y lo bendije. Y bendecido quedará». 33 Isaac trembled violently, and said, “Who, then, is he who has taken venison, and brought it to me, and I have eaten of all before you came, and have blessed him? Yes, he will be blessed.”
34 Cuando Esaú oyó las palabras de su padre, dio un grito fuerte y amargo, y dijo: «¡Bendíceme también a mí, padre mío!». 34 When Esau heard the words of his father, he cried with an exceedingly great and bitter cry, and said to his father, “Bless me, even me also, my father.”
35 Isaac respondió: «Tu hermano vino con engaño y se llevó tu bendición». 35 He said, “Your brother came with deceit, and has taken away your blessing.”
36 Esaú dijo: «Con razón se llama Jacob. Ya me ha quitado dos veces lo que era mío. Primero tomó mi derecho de hijo mayor, y ahora tomó mi bendición». Luego preguntó: «¿No has guardado una bendición para mí?». 36 He said, “Isn’t he rightly named Jacob? For he has supplanted me these two times. He took away my birthright. See, now he has taken away my blessing.” He said, “Haven’t you reserved a blessing for me?”
37 Isaac respondió: «Lo he puesto como señor sobre ti y he hecho que todos sus hermanos sean sus siervos. Le he dado abundancia de grano y vino. ¿Qué puedo hacer ahora por ti, hijo mío?». 37 Isaac answered Esau, “Behold, I have made him your lord, and all his brothers I have given to him for servants. I have sustained him with grain and new wine. What then will I do for you, my son?”
38 Esaú dijo: «¿Solo tienes una bendición, padre mío? ¡Bendíceme también a mí!». Y Esaú comenzó a llorar. 38 Esau said to his father, “Do you have just one blessing, my father? Bless me, even me also, my father.” Esau lifted up his voice, and wept.
39 Entonces su padre Isaac le dijo: «Vivirás lejos de las tierras fértiles y lejos del rocío del cielo. 39 Isaac his father answered him, “Behold, your dwelling will be of the fatness of the earth, and of the dew of the sky from above.
40 Vivirás por tu espada y servirás a tu hermano. Pero cuando llegues a ser fuerte, romperás su yugo de tu cuello». 40 You will live by your sword, and you will serve your brother. It will happen, when you will break loose, that you will shake his yoke from off your neck.”
41 Esaú llegó a odiar a Jacob por la bendición que su padre le había dado. Pensaba: «Pronto llegará el tiempo de llorar la muerte de mi padre. Entonces mataré a mi hermano Jacob». 41 Esau hated Jacob because of the blessing with which his father blessed him. Esau said in his heart, “The days of mourning for my father are at hand. Then I will kill my brother Jacob.”
42 Cuando Rebeca supo lo que Esaú decía, mandó llamar a Jacob, su hijo menor, y le dijo: «Tu hermano Esaú planea matarte. 42 The words of Esau, her elder son, were told to Rebekah. She sent and called Jacob, her younger son, and said to him, “Behold, your brother Esau comforts himself about you by planning to kill you.
43 Ahora, hijo mío, haz lo que te digo. Huye a Harán, a casa de mi hermano Labán. 43 Now therefore, my son, obey my voice. Arise, flee to Laban, my brother, in Haran.
44 Quédate allí algún tiempo, hasta que se calme la ira de tu hermano 44 Stay with him a few days, until your brother’s fury turns away—
45 y deje de estar enojado contigo y olvide lo que le hiciste. Entonces mandaré a buscarte. ¿Por qué habría de perderlos a los dos en un mismo día?». 45 until your brother’s anger turns away from you, and he forgets what you have done to him. Then I will send, and get you from there. Why should I be bereaved of you both in one day?”
46 Rebeca dijo a Isaac: «Estoy cansada de vivir por causa de las mujeres hititas. Si Jacob toma una mujer de entre las hititas de esta tierra, ¿para qué quiero seguir viviendo?». 46 Rebekah said to Isaac, “I am weary of my life because of the daughters of Heth. If Jacob takes a wife of the daughters of Heth, such as these, of the daughters of the land, what good will my life do me?”
