Genesis 27:18–30

¹⁸And he came unto his father, and said, My father: and he said, Here am I; who art thou, my son? ¹⁹And Jacob said unto his father, I am Esau thy firstborn; I have done according as thou badest me: arise, I pray thee, sit and eat of my venison, ^mthat thy soul may bless me. ²⁰And 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 ⁿbrought it ^†to me. ²¹And Isaac said unto Jacob, Come near, I pray thee, that I ^omay feel thee, my son, whether thou be my very son Esau or not. ²²And 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. ²³And he discerned him not, because ^phis hands were hairy, as his brother Esau’s hands: so he blessed him. ²⁴And he said, Art thou my very son Esau? And he said, I am. ²⁵And he said, Bring it near to me, and I will eat of my son’s venison, ^qthat my soul may bless thee. And he brought it near to him, and he did eat: and he brought him wine, and he drank. ²⁶And his father Isaac said unto him, Come near now, and kiss me, my son. ²⁷And he came near, and kissed him: and he smelled the smell of his raiment, and ^rblessed him, and said,

See, ^sthe smell of my son is as the smell of a field which the Lord hath blessed:

²⁸Therefore God give thee of ^tthe dew of heaven,

And the fatness of the earth,

And ^uplenty of corn and wine:

²⁹Let people serve thee,

And nations bow down to thee:

^wBe lord over thy brethren,

And ^xlet thy mother’s sons bow down to thee:

^yCursed be every one that curseth thee,

And blessed be he that blesseth thee.

³⁰And 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.
