Genesis 27:5-13
5Now RebekahH7259 was listeningH8085 to what IsaacH3327 toldH1696H413 his sonH1121 EsauH6215. So when EsauH6215 wentH1980 into the fieldH7704 to huntH6679 gameH6718 and bringH935 it back, 6RebekahH7259 saidH559 toH413 her sonH1121 JacobH3290, “BeholdH2009, I overheardH8085 your fatherH1 sayingH1696 toH413 your brotherH251H559 EsauH6215, 7‘BringH935 me some gameH6718 and prepareH6213 me a tasty dishH4303 to eatH398, so that I may bless youH1288 in the presenceH6440 of the LORDH3068 beforeH6440 I dieH4194.’
8NowH6258, my sonH1121, listen toH8085 my voiceH6963 and do exactly asH834 IH589 tellH6680 youH853. 9Go outH1980H4994 toH413 the flockH6629 and bringH3947 meH8033 twoH8147 choiceH2896 young goatsH1423H5795, so that I can makeH6213 themH853 into a tasty dishH4303 for your fatherH1—the kindH834 he lovesH157. 10Then takeH935 it to your fatherH1 to eatH398, so thatH5668 he may blessH1288 you beforeH6440 he diesH4194.”
11JacobH3290H413 answeredH559 his motherH517 RebekahH7259, “LookH2005, my brotherH251 EsauH6215 is a hairyH8163 manH376, but I amH595H376 smooth-skinnedH2509. 12What ifH194 my fatherH1 touches meH4959? Then I would be revealedH1961 to himH5869 as a deceiverH8591, and I would bringH935 upon myselfH5921 a curseH7045 rather thanH3808 a blessingH1293.”
13His motherH517 repliedH559, “Your curseH7045 be on meH5921, my sonH1121. JustH389 obeyH8085 my voiceH6963 and goH1980 get themH3947 for me.”
