32His fatherH1 IsaacH3327 saidH559 to him, “1WhoH4310 are you?” And he saidH559, “I am your sonH1121, 2your firstbornH1060, EsauH6215.” 33Then IsaacH3327 3trembledH2729 violentlyH2731H1419H5704H3966, and saidH559, “4WhoH4310 thenH645 was he who huntedH6679 gameH6718 and broughtH935 it to me, so that I ateH398 from allH3605 of it beforeH2962 you cameH935, and blessedH1288 him? 5YesH1571, and he shall be blessedH1288.” 34When EsauH6215 heardH8085 the wordsH1697 of his fatherH1, 6he criedH6817 outH6817 with an exceedinglyH3966 greatH1419 and bitterH4751 cryH6818, and saidH559 to his fatherH1, “BlessH1288 me, me asH1571 wellH1571, my fatherH1!” 35And he saidH559, “7Your brotherH251 cameH935 deceitfullyH4820 and has takenH3947 away your blessingH1293.” 36Then Esau saidH559, “8Is he not rightly namedH7121H8034 910JacobH3290, for he has betrayedH6117 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 11your masterH1376, and I have givenH5414 to him allH3605 his relativesH251 12as servantsH5650; and with grainH1715 and newH8492 wineH8492 I have sustainedH5564 him. WhatH4100 thenH645 can I doH6213 for you, my sonH1121?” 38EsauH6215 saidH559 to his fatherH1, “Do you have only oneH259 blessingH1293, my fatherH1? BlessH1288 me, me asH1571 wellH1571, my fatherH1.” So EsauH6215 raisedH5375 his voiceH6963 and 13weptH1058.
