Genesis 27:6-21
-
6 And Rebekah spake unto Jacob her son, saying, Behold, I heard thy father speak unto Esau thy brother, saying,
-
7 Bring me venison, and make me savoury meat, that I may eat, and bless thee before the LORD before my death.
-
8 Now therefore, my son, obey my voice according to that which I command thee.
-
9 Go now to the flock, and fetch me from thence two good kids of the goats; and I will make them savoury meat for thy father, such as he loveth:
-
10 And thou shalt bring it to thy father, that he may eat, and that he may bless thee before his death.
-
11 And Jacob said to Rebekah his mother, Behold, Esau my brother is a hairy man, and I am a smooth man:
-
12 My father peradventure will feel me, and I shall seem to him as a deceiver; and I shall bring a curse upon me, and not a blessing.
-
13 And his mother said unto him, Upon me be thy curse, my son: only obey my voice, and go fetch me them.
-
14 And he went, and fetched, and brought them to his mother: and his mother made savoury meat, such as his father loved.
-
15 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:
-
16 And she put the skins of the kids of the goats upon his hands, and upon the smooth of his neck:
-
17 And she gave the savoury meat and the bread, which she had prepared, into the hand of her son Jacob.
-
18 And he came unto his father, and said, My father: and he said, Here am I; who art thou, my son?
-
19 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.
-
20 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.
-
21 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.
