Genesis 27:13-21 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

13. And his mother said to him: Upon me be this curse, my son: only hear thou my voice, and go, fetch me the things which I have said.

14. He went, and brought, and gave them to his mother. She dressed meats, such as she knew his father liked.

15. And she put on him very good garments of Esau, which she had at home with her:

16. And the little skins of the kids she put about his hands, and covered the bare of his neck.

17. And she gave him the savoury meat, and delivered him bread that she had baked.

18. Which when he had carried in, he said: My father? But he answered: I hear. Who art thou, my son?

19. And Jacob said: I am Esau thy firstborn: I have done as thou didst command me: arise, sit, and eat of my venison, that thy soul may bless me.

20. And Isaac said to his son: How couldst thou find it so quickly, my son?

21. And Isaac said: Come hither, that I may feel thee, my son, and may prove whether thou be my son Esau, or not.
