Genesis 27:18-29

18And he cameH935 unto his fatherH1, and saidH559, My fatherH1: and he saidH559, HereH2009 am I; who art thou, my sonH1121? 19And JacobH3290 saidH559 unto his fatherH1, I am EsauH6215 thy first-born; I have done according as thou badest me: ariseH6965, I pray thee, sitH3427 and eatH398 of my venison, that thy soulH5315 may blessH1288 me. 20And IsaacH3327 saidH559 unto his sonH1121, HowH4100 is it that thou hast foundH4672 it so quicklyH4116, my sonH1121? And he saidH559, Because Jehovah thy GodH430 sent me good speed. 21And IsaacH3327 saidH559 unto JacobH3290, Come near, I pray thee, that I may feelH4184 thee, my sonH1121, whether thou be my very sonH1121 EsauH6215 or not. 22And JacobH3290 went near unto IsaacH3327 his fatherH1; and he feltH4959 him, and saidH559, The voiceH6963 is Jacob’s voiceH6963, but the handsH3027 are the handsH3027 of EsauH6215. 23And he discerned him not, because his handsH3027 wereH1961 hairy, as his brotherH251 Esau’s handsH3027: so he blessedH1288 him. 24And he saidH559, Art thou my very sonH1121 EsauH6215? And he saidH559, I am. 25And he saidH559, BringH935 it near to me, and I will eatH398 of my son’sH1121 venison, that my soulH5315 may blessH1288 thee. And he broughtH935 it near to him, and he did eatH398: and he broughtH935 him wineH3196, and he drankH8354. 26And his fatherH1 IsaacH3327 saidH559 unto him, Come near now, and kiss me, my sonH1121. 27And he came near, and kissedH5401 him: and he smelledH7306 the smellH7306 of his raiment, and blessedH1288 him, and saidH559,

SeeH7200, the smellH7306 of my sonH1121Is as the smellH7306 of a fieldH7704 which Jehovah hath blessedH1288:28And GodH430 giveH5414 thee of the dewH2919 of heavenH8064,And of the fatness of the earthH776,And plenty of grainH1715 and newH8492 wineH8492:29Let peoplesH5971 serveH5647 thee,And nations bowH7812 downH7812 to thee:Be lordH1376 over thy brethren,And let thy mother’sH517 sonsH1121 bowH7812 downH7812 to thee:CursedH779 be every one that curseth thee,And blessedH1288 be every one that blesseth thee.
