Genesis 27:5-13

5Now Rebekah was listening when Isaac was speaking to Esau his son. So while Esau went to the field to hunt game to bring in,

6Rebekah said to Jacob her son, “Look, I heard your father speaking to your brother Esau saying,

7‘Bring me some game and prepare me a delicious meal that I may eat and bless you in Adonai’s presence before my death.’

8So now, my son, listen to my voice, to what I am commanding you.

9Go now to the flock and bring me two good young goats from there, so that I may prepare them as a delicious meal for your father—that he’ll love.

10Then you’ll bring it to your father to eat, so that he may bless you before his death.”

11But Jacob said to Rebekah his mother, “Look, my brother Esau is a hairy man, but I’m a smooth man.

12Perhaps my father will touch me, and he’ll take me for a mocker, and I’ll bring upon myself a curse and not a blessing.”

13Then his mother said to him, “Let your curse fall on me, my son. Just listen to me, and go, get them for me.”
