10. “And you shall take it to your father, and he shall eat it, so that he might bless you before his death.”
11. And Ya‛aqoḇ said to Riḇqah his mother, “See, Ěsaw my brother is a hairy man, and I am a smooth-skinned man.
12. “What if my father touches me? Then I shall be like a deceiver in his eyes, and shall bring a curse on myself and not a blessing.”
13. But his mother said to him, “Let your curse be on me, my son. Only obey my voice, and go, get them for me.”
14. And he went and fetched them and brought them to his mother, and his mother made a tasty dish, such as his father loved.
15. And Riḇqah took the best garments of her elder son Ěsaw, which were with her in the house, and put them on Ya‛aqoḇ her younger son.
16. And she put the skins of the young goats on his hands and on the smooth part of his neck.
17. Then she gave the tasty dish and the bread, which she had prepared, into the hand of her son Ya‛aqoḇ.
18. And he went to his father and said, “My father.” And he said, “Here I am. Who are you, my son?”
19. And Ya‛aqoḇ said to his father, “I am Ěsaw your first-born, I have done as you said to me. Please rise, sit and eat of my wild game, so that your being might bless me.”
20. But Yitsḥaq said to his son, “How is it that you have found it so quickly, my son?” And he said, “Because יהוה your Elohim brought it to me.”
21. Then Yitsḥaq said to Ya‛aqoḇ, “Please come near, so that I feel you, my son, whether you truly are my son Ěsaw or not.”
22. And Ya‛aqoḇ went near to Yitsḥaq his father, and he felt him and said, “The voice is the voice of Ya‛aqoḇ, but the hands are the hands of Ěsaw.”
23. And he did not recognise him, for his hands were hairy like his brother Ěsaw’s hands, and he blessed him.
