01:027:013 And his mother said unto him, Upon me be thy curse, my son:
only obey my voice, and go fetch me them.
01:027:014 And he went, and fetched, and brought them to his mother: and
his mother made savoury meat, such as his father loved.
01:027:015 And Rebekah took goodly raiment of her eldest son Esau, which
were with her in the house, and put them upon Jacob her
younger son:
01:027:016 And she put the skins of the kids of the goats upon his hands,
and upon the smooth of his neck:
01:027:017 And she gave the savoury meat and the bread, which she had
prepared, into the hand of her son Jacob.
01:027:018 And he came unto his father, and said, My father: and he said,
Here am I; who art thou, my son?
01:027:019 And Jacob said unto his father, I am Esau thy first born; I
have done according as thou badest me: arise, I pray thee, sit
and eat of my venison, that thy soul may bless me.
01:027:020 And Isaac said unto his son, How is it that thou hast found it
so quickly, my son? And he said, Because the LORD thy God
brought it to me.
01:027:021 And Isaac said unto Jacob, Come near, I pray thee, that I may
feel thee, my son, whether thou be my very son Esau or not.
01:027:022 And Jacob went near unto Isaac his father; and he felt him,
and said, The voice is Jacob's voice, but the hands are the
hands of Esau.
01:027:023 And he discerned him not, because his hands were hairy, as his
brother Esau's hands: so he blessed him.
01:027:024 And he said, Art thou my very son Esau? And he said, I am.
01:027:025 And he said, Bring it near to me, and I will eat of my son's
venison, that my soul may bless thee. And he brought it near
to him, and he did eat: and he brought him wine and he drank.
01:027:026 And his father Isaac said unto him, Come near now, and kiss
me, my son.
01:027:027 And he came near, and kissed him: and he smelled the smell of
his raiment, and blessed him, and said, See, the smell of my
son is as the smell of a field which the LORD hath blessed:
01:027:028 Therefore God give thee of the dew of heaven, and the fatness
of the earth, and plenty of corn and wine:
01:027:029 Let people serve thee, and nations bow down to thee: be lord
over thy brethren, and let thy mother's sons bow down to thee:
cursed be every one that curseth thee, and blessed be he that
blesseth thee.
01:027:030 And it came to pass, as soon as Isaac had made an end of
blessing Jacob, and Jacob was yet scarce gone out from the
presence of Isaac his father, that Esau his brother came in
from his hunting.
