Genesis 27:8-13 ▼

8 So now, my son, listen to what I have to say and pay attention to what I'm about to tell you.

9 Go to the flock and bring me two healthy young goats. I'll prepare some delicious food for your father, just the way he loves it.

10 Then you are to take it to your father so that he can eat and bless you before he dies.|

11 |But look!| Jacob pointed out to his mother Rebekah, |My brother Esau is a hairy man, but I'm smooth skinned.

12 My father might touch me and he'll realize that I'm deceiving him. Then, I'll bring a curse on myself instead of a blessing.|

13 |My son,| she replied, |let any curse against you fall on me. Just listen to me, then go and get them for me.|
