Jacob obtiene la bendición de Isaac
27 Aconteció que cuando Isaac envejeció, y sus ojos se oscurecieron quedando sin vista, llamó a Esaú su hijo mayor, y le dijo: Hijo mío. Y él respondió: Heme aquí. 2 Y él dijo: He aquí ya soy viejo, no sé el día de mi muerte. 3 Toma, pues, ahora tus armas, tu aljaba y tu arco, y sal al campo y tráeme caza; 4 y hazme un guisado como a mí me gusta, y tráemelo, y comeré, para que yo te bendiga antes que muera. 5 Y Rebeca estaba oyendo, cuando hablaba Isaac a Esaú su hijo; y se fue Esaú al campo para buscar la caza que había de traer.
6 Entonces Rebeca habló a Jacob su hijo, diciendo: He aquí yo he oído a tu padre que hablaba con Esaú tu hermano, diciendo: 7 Tráeme caza y hazme un guisado, para que coma, y te bendiga en presencia de Jehová antes que yo muera. 8 Ahora, pues, hijo mío, obedece a mi voz en lo que te mando. 9 Ve ahora al ganado, y tráeme de allí dos buenos cabritos de las cabras, y haré de ellos viandas para tu padre, como a él le gusta; 10 y tú las llevarás a tu padre, y comerá, para que él te bendiga antes de su muerte. 11 Y Jacob dijo a Rebeca su madre: He aquí, Esaú mi hermano es hombre velloso, y yo lampiño. 12 Quizá me palpará mi padre, y me tendrá por burlador, y traeré sobre mí maldición y no bendición. 13 Y su madre respondió: Hijo mío, sea sobre mí tu maldición; solamente obedece a mi voz y ve y tráemelos. 14 Entonces él fue y los tomó, y los trajo a su madre; y su madre hizo guisados, como a su padre le gustaba. 15 Y tomó Rebeca los vestidos de Esaú su hijo mayor, los preciosos, que ella tenía en casa, y vistió a Jacob su hijo menor; 16 y cubrió sus manos y la parte de su cuello donde no tenía vello, con las pieles de los cabritos; 17 y entregó los guisados y el pan que había preparado, en manos de Jacob su hijo.
18 Entonces este fue a su padre y dijo: Padre mío. E Isaac respondió: Heme aquí; ¿quién eres, hijo mío? 19 Y Jacob dijo a su padre: Yo soy Esaú tu primogénito; he hecho como me dijiste: levántate ahora, y siéntate, y come de mi caza, para que me bendigas. 20 Entonces Isaac dijo a su hijo: ¿Cómo es que la hallaste tan pronto, hijo mío? Y él respondió: Porque Jehová tu Dios hizo que la encontrase delante de mí. 21 E Isaac dijo a Jacob: Acércate ahora, y te palparé, hijo mío, por si eres mi hijo Esaú o no. 22 Y se acercó Jacob a su padre Isaac, quien le palpó, y dijo: La voz es la voz de Jacob, pero las manos, las manos de Esaú. 23 Y no le conoció, porque sus manos eran vellosas como las manos de Esaú; y le bendijo. 24 Y dijo: ¿Eres tú mi hijo Esaú? Y Jacob respondió: Yo soy. 25 Dijo también: Acércamela, y comeré de la caza de mi hijo, para que yo te bendiga; y Jacob se la acercó, e Isaac comió; le trajo también vino, y bebió. 26 Y le dijo Isaac su padre: Acércate ahora, y bésame, hijo mío. 27 Y Jacob se acercó, y le besó; y olió Isaac el olor de sus vestidos, y le bendijo, diciendo:
Mira, el olor de mi hijo,
Como el olor del campo que Jehová ha bendecido;
28 Dios, pues, te dé del rocío del cielo,
Y de las grosuras de la tierra,
Y abundancia de trigo y de mosto.
29 Sírvante pueblos,
Y naciones se inclinen a ti;
Sé señor de tus hermanos,
Y se inclinen ante ti los hijos de tu madre.
Malditos los que te maldijeren,
30 Y aconteció, luego que Isaac acabó de bendecir a Jacob, y apenas había salido Jacob de delante de Isaac su padre, que Esaú su hermano volvió de cazar. 31 E hizo él también guisados, y se los llevó a su padre, y le dijo: Levántese mi padre, y coma de la caza de su hijo, para que me bendiga. 32 Entonces Isaac su padre le dijo: ¿Quién eres tú? Y él le dijo: Yo soy tu hijo, tu primogénito, Esaú. 33 Y se estremeció Isaac grandemente, y dijo: ¿Quién es el que vino aquí, que trajo caza, y me dio, y comí de todo antes que tú vinieses? Yo le bendije, y será bendito. 34 Cuando Esaú oyó las palabras de su padre, clamó con una muy grande y muy amarga exclamación, y le dijo: Bendíceme también a mí, padre mío. 35 Y él dijo: Vino tu hermano con engaño, y tomó tu bendición. 36 Y Esaú respondió: Bien llamaron su nombre Jacob, pues ya me ha suplantado dos veces: se apoderó de mi primogenitura,(C) y he aquí ahora ha tomado mi bendición. Y dijo: ¿No has guardado bendición para mí? 37 Isaac respondió y dijo a Esaú: He aquí yo le he puesto por señor tuyo, y le he dado por siervos a todos sus hermanos; de trigo y de vino le he provisto; ¿qué, pues, te haré a ti ahora, hijo mío? 38 Y Esaú respondió a su padre: ¿No tienes más que una sola bendición, padre mío? Bendíceme también a mí, padre mío. Y alzó Esaú su voz, y lloró.(D)
39 Entonces Isaac su padre habló y le dijo:
He aquí, será tu habitación en grosuras de la tierra,
Y del rocío de los cielos de arriba;
40 Y por tu espada vivirás, y a tu hermano servirás;
Y sucederá cuando te fortalezcas,
Jacob huye de Esaú
41 Y aborreció Esaú a Jacob por la bendición con que su padre le había bendecido, y dijo en su corazón: Llegarán los días del luto de mi padre, y yo mataré a mi hermano Jacob. 42 Y fueron dichas a Rebeca las palabras de Esaú su hijo mayor; y ella envió y llamó a Jacob su hijo menor, y le dijo: He aquí, Esaú tu hermano se consuela acerca de ti con la idea de matarte. 43 Ahora pues, hijo mío, obedece a mi voz; levántate y huye a casa de Labán mi hermano en Harán, 44 y mora con él algunos días, hasta que el enojo de tu hermano se mitigue; 45 hasta que se aplaque la ira de tu hermano contra ti, y olvide lo que le has hecho; yo enviaré entonces, y te traeré de allá. ¿Por qué seré privada de vosotros ambos en un día? 46 Y dijo Rebeca a Isaac: Fastidio tengo de mi vida, a causa de las hijas de Het. Si Jacob toma mujer de las hijas de Het, como estas, de las hijas de esta tierra, ¿para qué quiero la vida?

Jacob acquires his father’s blessing
27 When Isaac had grown old and his eyesight was failing, he summoned his older son Esau and said to him, “My son?”
And Esau said, “I’m here.”
2 He said, “I’m old and don’t know when I will die. 3 So now, take your hunting gear, your bow and quiver of arrows, go out to the field, and hunt game for me. 4 Make me the delicious food that I love and bring it to me so I can eat. Then I can bless you before I die.”
5 Rebekah was listening when Isaac spoke to his son Esau. When Esau went out to the field to hunt game to bring back, 6 Rebekah said to her son Jacob, “I just heard your father saying to your brother Esau, 7 ‘Bring me some game and make me some delicious food so I can eat, and I will bless you in the Lord’s presence before I die.’ 8 Now, my son, listen to me, to what I’m telling you to do. 9 Go to the flock and get me two healthy young goats so I can prepare them as the delicious food your father loves. 10 You can bring it to your father, he will eat, and then he will bless you before he dies.”
11 Jacob said to his mother Rebekah, “My brother Esau is a hairy man, but I have smooth skin. 12 What if my father touches me and thinks I’m making fun of him? I will be cursed instead of blessed.”
13 His mother said to him, “Your curse will be on me, my son. Just listen to me: go and get them for me.” 14 So he went and got them and brought them to his mother, and his mother made the delicious food that his father loved. 15 Rebekah took her older son Esau’s favorite clothes that were in the house with her, and she put them on her younger son Jacob. 16 On his arms and smooth neck she put the hide of young goats, 17 and the delicious food and the bread she had made she put into her son’s hands.
18 Jacob went to his father and said, “My father.”
And he said, “I’m here. Who are you, my son?”
19 Jacob said to his father, “I’m Esau your oldest son. I’ve made what you asked me to. Sit up and eat some of the game so you can bless me.”
20 Isaac said to his son, “How could you find this so quickly, my son?”
He said, “The Lord your God led me right to it.”[a]
21 Isaac said to Jacob, “Come here and let me touch you, my son. Are you my son Esau or not?” 22 So Jacob approached his father Isaac, and Isaac touched him and said, “The voice is Jacob’s voice, but the arms are Esau’s arms.” 23 Isaac didn’t recognize him because his arms were hairy like Esau’s arms, so he blessed him.
24 Isaac said, “Are you really my son Esau?”
And he said, “I am.”
25 Isaac said, “Bring some food here and let me eat some of my son’s game so I can bless you.” Jacob put it before him and he ate, and he brought him wine and he drank. 26 His father Isaac said to him, “Come here and kiss me, my son.” 27 So he came close and kissed him. When Isaac smelled the scent of his clothes, he blessed him,
“See, the scent of my son
is like the scent of the field
that the Lord has blessed.
28 May God give you
showers from the sky,
olive oil from the earth,
plenty of grain and new wine.
29 May the nations serve you,
may peoples bow down to you.
Be the most powerful man among your brothers,
and may your mother’s sons bow down to you.
Those who curse you will be cursed,
and those who bless you will be blessed.”
Esau receives a secondary blessing
30 After Isaac had finished blessing Jacob, and just as Jacob left his father Isaac, his brother Esau came back from his hunt. 31 He too made some delicious food, brought it to his father, and said, “Let my father sit up and eat from his son’s game so that you may bless me.”
32 His father Isaac said to him, “Who are you?”
And he said, “I’m your son, your oldest son, Esau.”
33 Isaac was so shocked that he trembled violently. He said, “Who was the hunter just here with game? He brought me food, and I ate all of it before you came. I blessed him, and he will stay blessed!”
34 When Esau heard what his father said, he let out a loud agonizing cry and wept bitterly. He said to his father, “Bless me! Me too, my father!”
35 Isaac said, “Your brother has already come deceitfully and has taken your blessing.”
36 Esau said, “Isn’t this why he’s called Jacob? He’s taken me[b] twice now: he took my birthright, and now he’s taken my blessing.” He continued, “Haven’t you saved a blessing for me?”
37 Isaac replied to Esau, “I’ve already made him more powerful than you, and I’ve made all of his brothers his servants. I’ve made him strong with grain and wine. What can I do for you, my son?”
38 Esau said to his father, “Do you really have only one blessing, Father? Bless me too, my father!” And Esau wept loudly.
39 His father Isaac responded and said to him,
“Now, you will make a home
far away from the olive groves of the earth,
far away from the showers of the sky above.
40 You will live by your sword;
you will serve your brother.
But when you grow restless,[c]
you will tear away his harness
from your neck.”
Jacob sent away for protection
41 Esau was furious at Jacob because his father had blessed him, and Esau said to himself, When the period of mourning for the death of my father is over, I will kill my brother.
42 Rebekah was told what her older son Esau was planning, so she summoned her younger son Jacob and said to him, “Esau your brother is planning revenge. He plans to kill you. 43 So now, my son, listen to me: Get up and escape to my brother Laban in Haran. 44 Live with him for a short while until your brother’s rage subsides, 45 until your brother’s anger at you goes away and he forgets what you did to him. Then I will send for you and bring you back from there. Why should I suffer the loss of both of you on one day?”
46 Rebekah then said to Isaac, “I really loathe these Hittite women. If Jacob marries one of the Hittite women, like the women of this land, why should I go on living?”

27 And it came to pass, that when Isaac was old, and his eyes were dim, so that he could not see, he called Esau his eldest son, and said unto him, My son: and he said unto him, Behold, here am I.
2 And he said, Behold now, I am old, I know not the day of my death:
3 Now therefore take, I pray thee, thy weapons, thy quiver and thy bow, and go out to the field, and take me some venison;
4 And make me savoury meat, such as I love, and bring it to me, that I may eat; that my soul may bless thee before I die.
5 And Rebekah heard when Isaac spake to Esau his son. And Esau went to the field to hunt for venison, and to bring it.
6 And Rebekah spake unto Jacob her son, saying, Behold, I heard thy father speak unto Esau thy brother, saying,
7 Bring me venison, and make me savoury meat, that I may eat, and bless thee before the Lord before my death.
8 Now therefore, my son, obey my voice according to that which I command thee.
9 Go now to the flock, and fetch me from thence two good kids of the goats; and I will make them savoury meat for thy father, such as he loveth:
10 And thou shalt bring it to thy father, that he may eat, and that he may bless thee before his death.
11 And Jacob said to Rebekah his mother, Behold, Esau my brother is a hairy man, and I am a smooth man:
12 My father peradventure will feel me, and I shall seem to him as a deceiver; and I shall bring a curse upon me, and not a blessing.
13 And his mother said unto him, Upon me be thy curse, my son: only obey my voice, and go fetch me them.
14 And he went, and fetched, and brought them to his mother: and his mother made savoury meat, such as his father loved.
15 And Rebekah took goodly raiment of her eldest son Esau, which were with her in the house, and put them upon Jacob her younger son:
16 And she put the skins of the kids of the goats upon his hands, and upon the smooth of his neck:
17 And she gave the savoury meat and the bread, which she had prepared, into the hand of her son Jacob.
18 And he came unto his father, and said, My father: and he said, Here am I; who art thou, my son?
19 And Jacob said unto his father, I am Esau thy first born; I have done according as thou badest me: arise, I pray thee, sit and eat of my venison, that thy soul may bless me.
20 And Isaac said unto his son, How is it that thou hast found it so quickly, my son? And he said, Because the Lord thy God brought it to me.
21 And Isaac said unto Jacob, Come near, I pray thee, that I may feel thee, my son, whether thou be my very son Esau or not.
22 And Jacob went near unto Isaac his father; and he felt him, and said, The voice is Jacob's voice, but the hands are the hands of Esau.
23 And he discerned him not, because his hands were hairy, as his brother Esau's hands: so he blessed him.
24 And he said, Art thou my very son Esau? And he said, I am.
25 And he said, Bring it near to me, and I will eat of my son's venison, that my soul may bless thee. And he brought it near to him, and he did eat: and he brought him wine and he drank.
26 And his father Isaac said unto him, Come near now, and kiss me, my son.
27 And he came near, and kissed him: and he smelled the smell of his raiment, and blessed him, and said, See, the smell of my son is as the smell of a field which the Lord hath blessed:
28 Therefore God give thee of the dew of heaven, and the fatness of the earth, and plenty of corn and wine:
29 Let people serve thee, and nations bow down to thee: be lord over thy brethren, and let thy mother's sons bow down to thee: cursed be every one that curseth thee, and blessed be he that blesseth thee.
30 And it came to pass, as soon as Isaac had made an end of blessing Jacob, and Jacob was yet scarce gone out from the presence of Isaac his father, that Esau his brother came in from his hunting.
31 And he also had made savoury meat, and brought it unto his father, and said unto his father, Let my father arise, and eat of his son's venison, that thy soul may bless me.
32 And Isaac his father said unto him, Who art thou? And he said, I am thy son, thy firstborn Esau.
33 And Isaac trembled very exceedingly, and said, Who? where is he that hath taken venison, and brought it me, and I have eaten of all before thou camest, and have blessed him? yea, and he shall be blessed.
34 And when Esau heard the words of his father, he cried with a great and exceeding bitter cry, and said unto his father, Bless me, even me also, O my father.
35 And he said, Thy brother came with subtilty, and hath taken away thy blessing.
36 And he said, Is not he rightly named Jacob? for he hath supplanted me these two times: he took away my birthright; and, behold, now he hath taken away my blessing. And he said, Hast thou not reserved a blessing for me?
37 And Isaac answered and said unto Esau, Behold, I have made him thy lord, and all his brethren have I given to him for servants; and with corn and wine have I sustained him: and what shall I do now unto thee, my son?
38 And Esau said unto his father, Hast thou but one blessing, my father? bless me, even me also, O my father. And Esau lifted up his voice, and wept.
39 And Isaac his father answered and said unto him, Behold, thy dwelling shall be the fatness of the earth, and of the dew of heaven from above;
40 And by thy sword shalt thou live, and shalt serve thy brother; and it shall come to pass when thou shalt have the dominion, that thou shalt break his yoke from off thy neck.
41 And Esau hated Jacob because of the blessing wherewith his father blessed him: and Esau said in his heart, The days of mourning for my father are at hand; then will I slay my brother Jacob.
42 And these words of Esau her elder son were told to Rebekah: and she sent and called Jacob her younger son, and said unto him, Behold, thy brother Esau, as touching thee, doth comfort himself, purposing to kill thee.
43 Now therefore, my son, obey my voice; arise, flee thou to Laban my brother to Haran;
44 And tarry with him a few days, until thy brother's fury turn away;
45 Until thy brother's anger turn away from thee, and he forget that which thou hast done to him: then I will send, and fetch thee from thence: why should I be deprived also of you both in one day?
46 And Rebekah said to Isaac, I am weary of my life because of the daughters of Heth: if Jacob take a wife of the daughters of Heth, such as these which are of the daughters of the land, what good shall my life do me?
