Genesis 27:37-40
New King James Version
37 Then Isaac answered and said to Esau, (A)“Indeed I have made him your master, and all his brethren I have given to him as servants; with (B)grain and wine I have [a]sustained him. What shall I do now for you, my son?”
38 And Esau said to his father, “Have you only one blessing, my father? Bless me—me also, O my father!” And Esau lifted up his voice (C)and wept.
39 Then Isaac his father answered and said to him:
“Behold, (D)your dwelling shall be of the [b]fatness of the earth,
And of the dew of heaven from above.
40 By your sword you shall live,
And (E)you shall serve your brother;
And (F)it shall come to pass, when you become restless,
That you shall break his yoke from your neck.”
