Amplified Bible
Genesis 27:11-17
11Jacob said to Rebekah his mother, “Listen, Esau my brother is a hairy man and I am a smooth [skinned] man.
12Suppose my father touches me and feels my skin; then I will be seen by him as a cheat (imposter), and I will bring his curse on me and not a blessing.”
13But his mother said to him, “May your curse be on me, my son; only listen and obey me, and go, bring the young goats to me.”
14So Jacob went and got the two young goats, and brought them to his mother; and his mother prepared a delicious dish of food [with a delightful aroma], the kind his father loved [to eat].
15Then Rebekah took her elder son Esau’s best clothes, which were with her in her house, and put them on Jacob her younger son.
16And she put the skins of the young goats on his hands and on the smooth part of his neck.
17Then she gave her son Jacob the delicious meat and the bread which she had prepared.
