11 Jacob said to his mother Rebekah, “My brother Esau is a hairy man, and my skin is smooth.[a] 12 My father will feel ⌞my skin⌟ and think I’m mocking him. Then I’ll bring a curse on myself instead of a blessing.”
13 His mother responded, “Let any curse on you fall on me, Son. Just obey me and go! Get me ⌞the young goats⌟.”
