Amplified Bible
Genesis 27:23-29
23He could not recognize him [as Jacob], because his hands were hairy like his brother Esau’s hands; so he blessed him.
24But he said, “Are you really my son Esau?” Jacob answered, “I am.”
25Then Isaac said, “Bring the food to me, and I will eat some of my son’s game, so that I may bless you.” He brought it to him, and he ate; and he brought him wine and he drank.
26Then his father Isaac said to him, “Please come, my son, and kiss me.”
27So he came and kissed him; and Isaac smelled his clothing and blessed him and said, “The scent of my son [Esau] Is like the aroma of a field which the Lord has blessed;
28Now may God give you of the dew of heaven [to water your land], And of the fatness (fertility) of the earth, And an abundance of grain and new wine;
29May peoples serve you, And nations bow down to you; Be lord and master over your brothers, And may your mother’s sons bow down to you. May those who curse you be cursed, And may those who bless you be blessed.”
