- 1Now when Isaac was old and his eyes had become clouded so that he was not able to see, he sent for Esau, his first son, and said to him, My son: and he said, Here am I.
- 2And he said, See now, I am old, and my death may take place at any time:
- 3So take your arrows and your bow and go out to the field and get meat for me;
- 4And make me food, good to the taste, such as is pleasing to me, and put it before me, so that I may have a meal and give you my blessing before death comes to me.
- 5Now Isaac's words to his son were said in Rebekah's hearing. Then Esau went out to get the meat.
- 6And Rebekah said to Jacob, her son, Your father said to your brother Esau in my hearing,

- 11And Jacob said to Rebekah, his mother, But Esau my brother is covered with hair, while I am smooth:
- 12If by chance my father puts his hand on me, it will seem to him that I am tricking him, and he will put a curse on me in place of a blessing.
- 13And his mother said, Let the curse be on me, my son: only do as I say, and go and get them for me.
- 14So he went and got them and took them to his mother: and she made a meal to his father's taste.
- 15And Rebekah took the fair robes of her oldest son, which were with her in the house, and put them on Jacob, her younger son:

- 22And Jacob went near his father Isaac: and he put his hands on him; and he said, The voice is Jacob's voice, but the hands are the hands of Esau.
- 23And he did not make out who he was, because his hands were covered with hair like his brother Esau's hands: so he gave him a blessing.
- 24And he said, Are you truly my son Esau? And he said, I am.
- 25And he said, Put it before me and I will take of my son's meat, so that I may give you a blessing. And he put it before him and he took it; and he gave him wine, and he had a drink.
- 26And his father Isaac said to him, Come near now, my son, and give me a kiss.
- 27And he came near and gave him a kiss; and smelling the smell of his clothing, he gave him a blessing, and said, See, the smell of my son is like the smell of a field on which the blessing of the Lord has come:

- 38And Esau said to his father, Is that the only blessing you have, my father? give a blessing to me, even me! And Esau was overcome with weeping.
- 39Then Isaac his father made answer and said to him, Far from the fertile places of the earth, and far from the dew of heaven on high will your living-place be:
- 40By your sword will you get your living and you will be your brother's servant; but when your power is increased his yoke will be broken from off your neck.
- 41So Esau was full of hate for Jacob because of his father's blessing; and he said in his heart, The days of weeping for my father are near; then I will put my brother Jacob to death.
