12. If my father should lay hands on me and perceive it, I am afraid lest he think me willing to mock him, and I will bring a curse upon myself, instead of a blessing."
13. And his mother said to him: "Let this curse be upon me, my son. Yet listen to my voice, and go directly to bring what I said."
14. He went out, and he brought, and he gave to his mother. She prepared the meats, just as she knew his father liked.
15. And she clothed him with the very fine garments of Esau, which she had at home with her.
16. And she encircled his hands with little pelts from the young goats, and she covered his bare neck.
17. And she gave him the small meal, and she handed him the bread that she had baked.
18. When he had carried these in, he said, "My father?" And he answered, "I'm listening. Who are you, my son?"
19. And Jacob said: "I am Esau, your firstborn. I have done as you instructed me. Arise; sit and eat from my hunting, so that your soul may bless me."
20. And again Isaac said to his son, "How were you able to find it so quickly, my son?" He answered, "It was the will of God, so that what I sought met with me quickly."
21. And Isaac said, "Come here, so that I may touch you, my son, and may prove whether you are my son Esau, or not."
