Höfnun Gyðinga og ætlun Guðs

Og árin liðu og þessi sonur, Ísak, óx og þegar hann var orðinn fullorðinn, giftist hann konu sem hét Rebekka. Þegar Rebekka eignaðist tvíbura, sagði Guð henni að Esaú, barnið sem fæddist fyrst, myndi verða þjónn Jakobs, tvíburabróður síns. Gamla testamentið lýsir þessu svo: „Jakob mun ég blessa en ekki Esaú.“ Þetta sagði Guð áður en drengirnir fæddust, áður en þeir höfðu tækifæri til að gera gott eða illt. Af þessu má sjá að Guð var að framkvæma fyrirætlun sína, sem hann hafði ákveðið löngu áður, en hann var ekki að launa drengjunum fyrir neitt, hvorki gott né illt.

OTCV ¹⁰ไม่เพียงเท่านั้น แต่เรเบคาห์ตั้งครรภ์ลูกสองคนในเวลาเดียวกันจากสามีคนเดียวของเธอ คืออิสอัค บรรพบุรุษของเรา ¹¹แต่ก่อนที่ลูกฝาแฝดนั้นจะเกิดมา หรือก่อนที่จะทำสิ่งดีหรือสิ่งชั่วใดๆ ได้ เพื่อให้เป็นไปตามความประสงค์ของพระเจ้าในการเลือก ¹²ไม่ใช่โดยการกระทำแต่โดยพระองค์ผู้เรียก พระองค์จึงพูดกับเธอว่า “พี่จะรับใช้น้อง” ¹³ตามที่มีเขียนไว้ว่า “ยาโคบนั้นเรารัก ส่วนเอซาวเราชัง”

ขจง. ¹⁰หรืออีกตัวอย่างหนึ่งที่เกี่ยวกับเรื่องนี้คือตอนที่เรเบคาห์ตั้งท้องลูกชายฝาแฝดกับอิสอัคบรรพบุรุษของเรา ^11–12ก่อนที่เด็กจะคลอดออกมาทำดีหรือชั่ว พระเจ้าบอกเรเบคาห์ว่า “คนพี่จะรับใช้คนน้อง” เพื่อให้เป็นไปตามแผนที่พระองค์เลือก ทำให้เราเห็นว่าการเลือกของพระเจ้านั้นไม่ได้ขึ้นอยู่กับการกระทำของคน แต่ขึ้นอยู่กับพระเจ้าผู้เรียกเอง ¹³ซึ่งเหมือนกับที่ได้เขียนไว้แล้วว่า “เรารักยาโคบ แต่เราเกลียดเอซาว”

KJV (66 books) ¹⁰And not only this; but when Rebecca also had conceived by one, even by our father Isaac; ¹¹(For the children being not yet born, neither having done any good or evil, that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works, but of him that calleth;) ¹²It was said unto her, The elder shall serve the younger. ¹³As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated.

AFINT (Exp US) ¹⁰And not only was this principle of divine selection seen with Sarah, but also when Rebecca had conceived twin children by one man, Isaac our father. ¹¹For although the twin children had not yet been born, nor had done anything either good or evil—so that God’s purpose and plan according to His sovereign election might stand firm and continue, ¹²Not based on human works or merit but based on God’s sovereign call and choice—it was said to her before their birth, “The older will serve the younger,” reversing natural expectations. ¹³Just as it stands written in Scripture: “Jacob I loved and chose, but Esau I rejected”—demonstrating God’s sovereign choice in election.

AFINT (Lit US) ¹⁰And not only this, but also when Rebecca had conceived children by one man, Isaac, our father. ¹¹For although the children, having not yet been born, nor having done anything good or evil—so that the promise of God according to election might continue, ¹²not of works but of the One who calls—it was said to her, “The older will serve the younger,” ¹³just as it is written: “Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated.”

ASV ¹⁰And not only so; but Rebecca also having conceived by one, even by our father Isaac— ¹¹for the children being not yet born, neither having done anything good or bad, that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works, but of him that calleth, ¹²it was said unto her, The elder shall serve the younger. ¹³Even as it is written, Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated.

BSB ¹⁰Not only that, but Rebecca’s children were conceived by one man, our father Isaac. ¹¹Yet before the twins were born or had done anything good or bad, in order that God’s plan of election might stand, ¹²not by works but by Him who calls, she was told, “The older will serve the younger.” ¹³So it is written: “Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated.”

DRA ¹⁰And not only she. But when Rebecca also had conceived at once, of Isaac our father. ¹¹For when the children were not yet born, nor had done any good or evil (that the purpose of God, according to election, might stand,) ¹²Not of works, but of him that calleth, it was said to her: The elder shall serve the younger. ¹³As it is written: Jacob I have loved, but Esau I have hated.

EMTV ¹⁰And not only this, but also Rebecca, having conceived from the one man, our father Isaac; ¹¹(for the children not yet being born, nor having done anything good or evil, that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works but of Him who calls), ¹²it was said to her, “The older shall serve the younger.” ¹³As it is written, “Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated.”

FBV ¹⁰In addition Rebecca's twin sons had the same father, our forefather Isaac. ¹¹But even before the children were born, and before they'd done anything right or wrong (so that God's purpose could continue, proving God's calling of people is not based on human performance), ¹²she was told, “The older brother will serve the younger one.” ¹³As Scripture says, “I chose Jacob, but rejected Esau.”

GNV ¹⁰Neither he onely felt this, but also Rebecca when shee had conceiued by one, euen by our father Isaac. ¹¹For yer the children were borne, and when they had neither done good, nor euill (that the purpose of God might remaine according to election, not by workes, but by him that calleth) ¹²It was said vnto her, The elder shall serue the yonger. ¹³As it is written, I haue loued Iacob, and haue hated Esau.

LSV ¹⁰And not only [so], but also Rebecca, having conceived by one—our father Isaac ¹¹(for they being not yet born, neither having done anything good or evil, that the purpose of God, according to [divine] selection, might remain; not of works, but of Him who is calling), ¹²it was said to her, “The greater will serve the less”; ¹³according as it has been written: “Jacob I loved, and Esau I hated.”

MSB ¹⁰Not only that, but Rebecca’s children were conceived by one man, our father Isaac. ¹¹Yet before the twins were born or had done anything good or evil, in order that God’s plan of election might stand, ¹²not by works but by Him who calls, she was told, “The older will serve the younger.” ¹³So it is written: “Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated.”

NASB ¹⁰And not only that, but there was also Rebekah, when she had conceived twins by one man, our father Isaac; ¹¹for though the twins were not yet born and had not done anything good or bad, so that God’s purpose according to His choice would stand, not because of works but because of Him who calls, ¹²it was said to her, “The older will serve the younger.” ¹³Just as it is written: “Jacob I have loved, but Esau I have hated.” NASB 2020

NIV (US) ¹⁰Not only that, but Rebekah’s children were conceived at the same time by our father Isaac. ¹¹Yet, before the twins were born or had done anything good or bad—in order that God’s purpose in election might stand: ¹²not by works but by him who calls—she was told, “The older will serve the younger.” ¹³Just as it is written: “Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated.”

NMV ¹⁰And not only [this]; but when Rebecca also had conceived by one, [even] by our father Yitz’khak [Laughter]; ¹¹(For [the children] being not yet born, neither having done any good or evil, that the purpose of God-The Father according to election might stand, not of works, but of him that calls;) ¹²It was said unto her, The elder shall serve the younger. ¹³As it is written, Ya’akov [He who grabs onto the heal of] [Heal of God] have I loved, but ‘Esav [Hairy] have I hated.

OJB ¹⁰Not only so, but also in the case of Rivkah (Isaacʼs wife) who conceived by the one act of sexual intercourse with Yitzchak Avinu. ¹¹For when they were not yet born nor had they done any mitzvah or averah, in order that the etzah (wisdom) of the tochnit Hashem (purposeful and willed plan of G-d) should stand in terms of bechirah (divine election, selection, choosing), ¹²Not from mitzvos but from the One who makes the kri'ah (divine summons), it was said to her, RAV YA'AVOD TZA'IR (the elder will serve the younger), ¹³As it is written, VA'OHAV ES YA'AKOV V'ES ESAV SANEITI (Ya'akov have I loved, but Esau have I hated).

TCENT ¹⁰Not only that, but when Rebecca had conceived by one man, our father Isaac, ¹¹though her sons were not yet born and had done nothing good or evil, in order for the purpose of God's choice to stand (not because of works but because of him who calls), ¹²she was told, “The older will serve the younger.” ¹³As it is written, “Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated.”

T4T ¹⁰And not only then did God show that he did not determine who would be his true children according to who their ancestors were. He showed it again when Rebecca conceived twins by our ancestor Isaac. ^11–12Before the twins, Jacob and Esau, were born, when neither one had yet done anything good or bad, God said to Rebecca about the twins she was to bear, “The older one shall later serve the younger one, contrary to normal custom.” God said this in order that we might clearly understand that what he purposed for people was according to what he himself determined. That is, people’s eternal destiny does not depend on what they do. Instead, their destiny depends on God, the one who chooses them. ¹³And this teaching is ◄supported/shown to be true► by what is written in the Scriptures {what a prophet recorded} that God said: “I favored Jacob, the younger son. I did not favor [HYP] Esau, the older son.”

WEB (US) ¹⁰Not only so, but Rebekah also conceived by one, by our father Isaac. ¹¹For being not yet born, neither having done anything good or bad, that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works, but of him who calls, ¹²it was said to her, “The elder will serve the younger.” ¹³Even as it is written, “Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated.”
