14. So he went and got them and brought them to his mother, and his mother made the delicious food that his father loved.

15. Rebekah took her older son Esau’s favorite clothes that were in the house with her, and she put them on her younger son Jacob.

16. On his arms and smooth neck she put the hide of young goats,

17. and the delicious food and the bread she had made she put into her son’s hands.

18. Jacob went to his father and said, "My father."And he said, "I’m here. Who are you, my son?"

19. Jacob said to his father, "I’m Esau your oldest son. I’ve made what you asked me to. Sit up and eat some of the game so you can bless me."

20. Isaac said to his son, "How could you find this so quickly, my son?"He said, "The Lord your God led me right to it."

21. Isaac said to Jacob, "Come here and let me touch you, my son. Are you my son Esau or not?"

22. So Jacob approached his father Isaac, and Isaac touched him and said, "The voice is Jacob’s voice, but the arms are Esau’s arms."
