New Living Translation
Genesis 27:11-17
11“But look,” Jacob replied to Rebekah, “my brother, Esau, is a hairy man, and my skin is smooth.
12What if my father touches me? He’ll see that I’m trying to trick him, and then he’ll curse me instead of blessing me.”
13But his mother replied, “Then let the curse fall on me, my son! Just do what I tell you. Go out and get the goats for me!”
14So Jacob went out and got the young goats for his mother. Rebekah took them and prepared a delicious meal, just the way Isaac liked it.
15Then she took Esau’s favorite clothes, which were there in the house, and gave them to her younger son, Jacob.
16She covered his arms and the smooth part of his neck with the skin of the young goats.
17Then she gave Jacob the delicious meal, including freshly baked bread.
