New King James Version
Genesis 27:4-14
4And make me savory food, such as I love, and bring it to me that I may eat, that my soul may bless you before I die.”
5Now Rebekah was listening when Isaac spoke to Esau his son. And Esau went to the field to hunt game and to bring it.
6So Rebekah spoke to Jacob her son, saying, “Indeed I heard your father speak to Esau your brother, saying,
7‘Bring me game and make savory food for me, that I may eat it and bless you in the presence of the Lord before my death.’
8Now therefore, my son, obey my voice according to what I command you.
9Go now to the flock and bring me from there two choice kids of the goats, and I will make savory food from them for your father, such as he loves.
10Then you shall take it to your father, that he may eat it, and that he may bless you before his death.”
11And Jacob said to Rebekah his mother, “Look, Esau my brother is a hairy man, and I am a smooth-skinned man.
12Perhaps my father will feel me, and I shall seem to be a deceiver to him; and I shall bring a curse on myself and not a blessing.”
13But his mother said to him, “Let your curse be on me, my son; only obey my voice, and go, get them for me.”
14And he went and got them and brought them to his mother, and his mother made savory food, such as his father loved.
