26 Then his father Isaac said to him, “Come near now and kiss me, my son.” 27 And he came near and (A)kissed him; and he smelled the smell of his clothing, and blessed him and said:

“Surely, (B)the smell of my son
Is like the smell of a field
Which the Lord has blessed.
28 Therefore may (C)God give you
Of (D)the dew of heaven,
Of (E)the fatness of the earth,
And (F)plenty of grain and wine.
29 (G)Let peoples serve you,
And nations bow down to you.
Be master over your brethren,
And (H)let your mother’s sons bow down to you.
(I)Cursed be everyone who curses you,
And blessed be those who bless you!”
