Genesis 27:27-34

New International Version

²⁷ So he went to him and kissed^(A) him^(B). When Isaac caught the smell of his clothes,^(C) he blessed him and said,

³⁰ After Isaac finished blessing him, and Jacob had scarcely left his father’s presence, his brother Esau came in from hunting. ³¹ He too prepared some tasty food and brought it to his father. Then he said to him, “My father, please sit up and eat some of my game, so that you may give me your blessing.”^(L)

³² His father Isaac asked him, “Who are you?”^(M)

“I am your son,” he answered, “your firstborn, Esau.^(N)”

³³ Isaac trembled violently and said, “Who was it, then, that hunted game and brought it to me?^(O) I ate it just before you came and I blessed him—and indeed he will be blessed!^(P)”

³⁴ When Esau heard his father’s words, he burst out with a loud and bitter cry^(Q) and said to his father, “Bless^(R) me—me too, my father!”
