34When EsauH6215 heardH8085 the wordsH1697 of his fatherH1, 1he criedH6817 out with an exceedinglyH3966 greatH1419 and bitterH4751 cryH6818, and saidH559 to his fatherH1, “BlessH1288 me, even me alsoH1571, O my fatherH1!” 35And he saidH559, “2Your brotherH251 cameH935 deceitfullyH4820 and has takenH3947 away your blessingH1293.” 36Then he saidH559, “3Is he not rightly namedH7121H8034 4JacobH3290, for he has supplantedH6117 me theseH2088 twoH6471 timesH6471? He tookH3947 away my birthrightH1062, and beholdH2009, nowH6258 he has takenH3947 away my blessingH1293.” And he saidH559, “Have you not reservedH680 a blessingH1293 for me?” 37But IsaacH3327 repliedH6030 to EsauH6215, “BeholdH2005, I have madeH7760 him 5your masterH1376, and allH3605 his 6relativesH251 I have givenH5414 to him 7as servantsH5650; and with grainH1715 and newH8492 wineH8492 I have sustainedH5564 him. Now as for you thenH645, whatH4100 can I doH6213, my sonH1121?” 38EsauH6215 saidH559 to his fatherH1, “Do you have only oneH259 blessingH1293, my fatherH1? BlessH1288 me, even me alsoH1571, O my fatherH1.” So EsauH6215 liftedH5375 his voiceH6963 and 8weptH1058.
