30 Isaka achingopedza kukomborera Jakobho, uye Jakobho achingobva pamberi pababa vake Isaka, Isau mukoma wake akabva asvika achibva kunovhima.+ 31 Iyewo akagadzira zvekudya zvinonaka, akaenda nazvo kuna baba vake, akati kuna baba vake: “Baba mukai mudye nyama yemhuka yauya nemwanakomana wenyu, kuti mundikomborere.”* 32 Baba vake Isaka vakabva vati kwaari: “Ndiwe ani?” Iye akati: “Ndini mwanakomana wenyu, dangwe renyu, Isau.”+ 33 Isaka akatanga kudedera kwazvo, akati: “Saka ndiani avhima nyama yemhuka akandivigira? Ndatoidya usati wasvika, uye ndamukomborera uye zvechokwadi achava akakomborerwa!”

34 Paakanzwa mashoko ababa vake, Isau akazhamba achiratidza kurwadziwa, akati kuna baba vake: “Ndikomborerei neniwo baba!”+ 35 Asi vakati: “Munin’ina wako auya akandinyengera kuti awane chikomborero changa chiri chako.” 36 Iye akabva ati: “Ndokusaka achinzi Jakobho.* Handiti akanditorera nzvimbo yangu kaviri kese?+ Akatora kare kodzero yangu yeudangwe,+ uye iye zvino atora chikomborero changu!”+ Akabva atizve: “Hamuna kundisiyirawo here chikomborero?” 37 Asi Isaka akamupindura kuti: “Ndamugadza kuti ave tenzi wako,+ uye ndamupa hama dzake dzese kuti dzive varanda vake, uye ndamupa zviyo newaini itsva.+ Chii chasara chandingakuitira nhai mwanangu?”

38 Isau akati kuna baba vake: “Munongova nechikomborero chimwe chete here, baba? Ndikomborerei neniwo baba!” Isau akabva atanga kuchema achiridza mhere.+ 39 Saka baba vake Isaka vakamupindura kuti:

“Uchagara kure nevhu rakaorera repasi, uye kure nedova rekudenga kumusoro.+ 40 Uchararama nebakatwa rako,+ uye uchashandira munin’ina wako.+ Asi paunoshaya zororo, chokwadi uchatyora joko rake pamutsipa wako.”+

Ndichazotumira shoko kuti udzoke. Ndingabva ndafirwa nemi mese muri vaviri zuva rimwe chete here?”

46 Pashure paizvozvo, Ribheka akanga ava kugara achiti kuna Isaka: “Upenyu hwangu huri kundisemesa nemhaka yevanasikana vaHeti.+ Kana zvikaitika kuti Jakobho anotora mudzimai akaita sevanasikana vaHeti ava vemunyika ino, ndichararamirei?”+
