Genesis 27:23-29

23Isaac did not recognize him, because his hands were hairy like those of his brother Esau; so he blessed him.

24Again he asked, “Are you really my son Esau?”

And he replied, “I am.”

25“Serve me,” said Isaac, “and let me eat some of my son’s game, so that I may bless you.”

Jacob brought it to him, and he ate; then he brought him wine, and he drank.

26Then his father Isaac said to him, “Please come near and kiss me, my son.”

27So he came near and kissed him. When Isaac smelled his clothing, he blessed him and said:

“Ah, the smell of my sonis like the smell of a fieldthat the LORD has blessed.28May God give to you the dew of heavenand the richness of the earth—an abundance of grain and new wine.29May peoples serve youand nations bow down to you.May you be the master of your brothers,and may the sons of your mother bow down to you.May those who curse you be cursed,and those who bless you be blessed.”
