New Testament

Genesis 27:12-17 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

12. Suppose my father feels me? He will think I am making fun of him, and I will bring on myself a curse instead of a blessing.”

13. His mother, however, replied: “Let any curse against you, my son, fall on me! Just obey me. Go and get me the young goats.”

14. So Jacob went and got them and brought them to his mother, and she prepared a dish in the way his father liked.

15. Rebekah then took the best clothes of her older son Esau that she had in the house, and gave them to her younger son Jacob to wear;

16. and with the goatskins she covered up his hands and the hairless part of his neck.

17. Then she gave her son Jacob the dish and the bread she had prepared.
