Genesis 27
King James Version
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?

Ciclo de Jacob (27—36)
Isaac bendice a Jacob y Esaú
27 Isaac era ya anciano y sus ojos se habían nublado tanto que ya no veía. Entonces llamó a Esaú, su hijo mayor, y le dijo:
— ¡Hijo mío!
Él respondió:
— Aquí estoy.
2 Continuó Isaac:
— Como ves, ya soy un anciano y cualquier día me puedo morir. 3 Quiero que vayas al monte con tu arco y tus flechas y me traigas algo de caza. 4 Después me lo guisas como a mí me gusta y me lo traes para que me lo coma, pues deseo darte mi bendición antes de morir.
5 Pero Rebeca había estado escuchando lo que Isaac le decía a su hijo Esaú y, en cuanto este salió al monte a cazar algo para su padre, 6 ella llamó a su hijo Jacob y le dijo:
— Según acabo de escuchar, tu padre le ha pedido a tu hermano Esaú 7 que cace un animal y se lo traiga para hacerle un guiso como a él le gusta, y después le dará su bendición delante del Señor antes de morir. 8 Así que ahora, hijo mío, haz lo que te mando. 9 Vete al rebaño y tráeme dos de los mejores cabritos. Yo prepararé a tu padre un guiso como a él le gusta 10 y tú se lo llevarás para que coma; y así te dará su bendición antes de morir.
11 Pero Jacob replicó a Rebeca, su madre:
— Sabes que mi hermano Esaú es velludo y yo soy lampiño. 12 Si resulta que mi padre llega a palparme y descubre que soy un impostor, me acarrearé maldición en lugar de bendición.
13 Su madre le dijo:
— Caiga sobre mí esa maldición, hijo mío. Tú haz lo que te digo y tráeme esos cabritos.
14 Jacob fue en busca de los cabritos, se los llevó a su madre y ella preparó el guiso como a su padre le gustaba. 15 Después Rebeca tomó la ropa de su hijo mayor Esaú, el mejor vestido que guardaba en casa, y se lo vistió a Jacob, su hijo menor. 16 Con la piel de los cabritos le cubrió las manos y la parte lampiña del cuello, 17 y puso en las manos de su hijo Jacob el guiso y el pan que había preparado.
18 Jacob entró adonde estaba su padre y le dijo:
— ¡Padre!
Isaac respondió:
— Aquí estoy. ¿Quién eres tú, hijo mío?
19 Jacob dijo:
— Soy Esaú, tu primogénito. Ya hice lo que me pediste. Ven, incorpórate para comer de lo que he cazado, y después me darás tu bendición.
20 Isaac dijo a su hijo:
— ¡Qué pronto has encontrado caza!
Jacob respondió:
— El Señor tu Dios me la puso al alcance.
21 Pero Isaac le dijo:
— Acércate, hijo mío, deja que te palpe para saber si de veras eres o no mi hijo Esaú.
22 Y Jacob se acercó a Isaac, su padre, que palpándolo dijo:
— La voz es la de Jacob, pero las manos son de Esaú. 23 Así que no lo reconoció porque sus manos eran velludas como las de su hermano Esaú. Ya se disponía a bendecirlo 24 cuando volvió a preguntarle:
— ¿Eres tú de verdad mi hijo Esaú?
Jacob contestó:
— Lo soy.
25 Entonces su padre le dijo:
— Sírveme de lo que has cazado, hijo mío, para que coma, y te daré mi bendición.
Jacob sirvió de comer a su padre, y comió; también le sirvió vino, y bebió. 26 Después Isaac, su padre, le dijo:
— Acércate ahora, hijo mío, y bésame.
27 Cuando Jacob se acercó para besarlo, Isaac le olió la ropa. Entonces lo bendijo con estas palabras:
“El aroma de mi hijo
es como el aroma de un campo
que el Señor ha bendecido.
28 Que Dios te conceda del cielo el rocío,
y de la tierra una abundante cosecha
de vino y de trigo.
29 Que tengas pueblos por vasallos
y naciones se inclinen ante ti.
Que seas señor de tus hermanos
y ante ti se postren los hijos de tu madre.
¡Maldito sea quien te maldiga,
y quien te bendiga, bendito sea!”.
30 Apenas había terminado Isaac de bendecir a Jacob y de salir este de donde estaba su padre, cuando volvió de cazar Esaú, su hermano. 31 Preparó también Esaú un guiso, se lo llevó a su padre y le dijo:
— Levántate, padre, come de esto que ha cazado tu hijo y dame tu bendición.
32 Su padre Isaac le preguntó:
— ¿Quién eres tú?
Él respondió:
— Soy Esaú, tu hijo primogénito.
33 Isaac se estremeció sobremanera y exclamó:
— Entonces ¿quién es el que fue a cazar y me lo trajo y comí de todo antes de que tú llegaras? Le di mi bendición, y bendecido quedará.
34 Al oír Esaú las palabras de su padre, lanzó un grito atroz, lleno de amargura, y le suplicó:
— ¡Dame tu bendición a mí también, padre!
35 Pero Isaac le respondió:
— Ha venido tu hermano con engaños y te ha robado tu bendición.
36 Esaú exclamó:
— ¡Con razón le pusieron el nombre de Jacob! Ya van dos veces que me ha hecho trampa; primero me quitó mi primogenitura, y ahora me ha arrebatado mi bendición. ¿No te queda otra bendición para mí?
37 Isaac le respondió:
— Mira, lo he puesto por señor tuyo y he declarado siervos suyos a todos sus hermanos. Le he provisto de vino y trigo, ¿qué puedo hacer ya por ti, hijo mío?
38 Pero Esaú insistió:
— ¿Es que sólo tienes una bendición, padre? ¡Bendíceme también a mí, padre mío!
Y Esaú se puso a llorar y a dar grandes gritos.
39 Entonces Isaac, su padre, le dijo:
Vivirás lejos de la tierra fértil,
lejos del rocío del cielo.
40 Vivirás de tu espada
y a tu hermano servirás.
Pero cuando te rebeles,
lograrás quitar su yugo de tu cuello.
41 Desde entonces Esaú guardó un profundo rencor hacia su hermano por la bendición que le había dado su padre, y se decía: “No está lejos el día en que hagamos duelo por la muerte de mi padre; después de eso, mataré a mi hermano Jacob.”
42 Alguien contó a Rebeca lo que Esaú, su hijo mayor, estaba tramando; así que mandó llamar a Jacob, el hijo menor, y le dijo:
— Mira, tu hermano Esaú quiere matarte para vengarse de ti. 43 Créeme, hijo mío, debes huir en seguida a Jarán, a casa de mi hermano Labán. 44 Quédate con él por algún tiempo, hasta que se apacigüe la furia de tu hermano. 45 Cuando ya se haya calmado y olvide lo que le has hecho, entonces te mandaré aviso para que vuelvas. ¡No quiero perderlos a los dos el mismo día!
46 Luego Rebeca dijo a Isaac:
— Estas nueras hititas me están amargando la vida. Como Jacob se case también con una de esas hititas, con una nativa de este país, ¡más me valdría morir!
