11 But Jacob said to his mother Rebekah, “Behold, my brother Esau is a (A)hairy man and I am a smooth man. 12 (B)Perhaps my father will touch me, then I will be like a [a]deceiver in his sight, and I will bring upon myself a curse and not a blessing.” 13 But his mother said to him, “Your curse be on me, my son; only (C)obey my voice, and go, get the goats for me.”

New International Version
11 Jacob said to Rebekah his mother, “But my brother Esau is a hairy man(A) while I have smooth skin. 12 What if my father touches me?(B) I would appear to be tricking him and would bring down a curse(C) on myself rather than a blessing.”
13 His mother said to him, “My son, let the curse fall on me.(D) Just do what I say;(E) go and get them for me.”
