Genesis 27:9-16 Contemporary English Version Anglicised (CEVUK00)

9. Go and kill two of your best young goats and bring them to me. I'll cook the tasty food that your father loves so much.

10. Then you can take it to him, so he can eat it and give you his blessing before he dies.”

11. “My brother Esau is a hairy man,” Jacob reminded her. “And I am not.

12. If my father touches me and realizes I am trying to trick him, he will put a curse on me instead of giving me a blessing.”

13. Rebekah insisted, “Let his curse fall on me! Just do what I say and bring me the meat.”

14. So Jacob brought the meat to his mother, and she cooked the tasty food that his father liked.

15. Then she took Esau's best clothes and put them on Jacob.

16. She also covered the smooth part of his hands and neck with goatskins
