26. he said to him, "Come to me and give me a kiss, my son."
27. He approached and kissed him. And immediately he perceived the fragrance of his garments. And so, blessing him, he said: "Behold, the smell of my son is like the smell of a plentiful field, which the Lord has blessed.
28. May God give to you, from the dew of heaven and from the fatness of the earth, an abundance of grain and wine.
29. And may the peoples serve you, and may the tribes reverence you. May you be the lord of your brothers, and may your mother's sons bow down before you. Whoever curses you, may he be cursed, and whoever blesses you, may he be filled with blessings."
30. Scarcely had Isaac completed his words, and Jacob departed, when Esau arrived.
31. And he brought his father foods cooked from his hunting, saying, "Arise, my father, and eat from your son's hunting, so that your soul may bless me."
32. And Isaac said to him, "But who are you?" And he answered, "I am your firstborn son, Esau."
33. Isaac became frightened and very astonished. And wondering beyond what can be believed, he said: "Then who is he that a while ago brought me the prey from his hunting, from which I ate, before you arrived? And I blessed him, and he will be blessed."
34. Esau, having heard his father's words, roared out with a great outcry. And, being confounded, he said, "But bless me also, my father."
35. And he said, "Your twin came deceitfully, and he received your blessing."
36. But he responded: "Justly is his name called Jacob. For he has supplanted me yet another time. My birthright he took away before, and now, this second time, he has stolen my blessing." And again, he said to his father, "Have you not reserved a blessing for me also?"
37. Isaac answered: "I have appointed him as your lord, and I have subjugated all his brothers as his servants. I have reinforced him with grain and wine, and after this, my son, what more shall I do for you?"
38. And Esau said to him: "Have you only one blessing, father? I beg you, bless me also." And when he wept with a loud wail,
39. Isaac was moved, and he said to him: "In the fatness of the earth, and in the dew of heaven from above,
40. will your blessing be. You will live by the sword, and you will serve your brother. But the time will arrive when you will shake off and release his yoke from your neck."
41. Therefore, Esau always hated Jacob, for the blessing with which his father had blessed him. And he said in his heart, "The days will arrive for the mourning of my father, and I will kill my brother Jacob."
42. These things were reported to Rebekah. And sending and calling for her son Jacob, she said to him, "Behold, your brother Esau is threatening to kill you.
