5. And when Rebecca had heard this, and he was gone into the field to fulfill his father's commandment,
6. She said to her son Jacob: I heard thy father talking with Esau thy brother, and saying to him:
7. Bring me of thy hunting, and make me meats that I may eat, and bless thee in the sight of the Lord, before I die.
8. Now, therefore, my son, follow my counsel:
9. And go thy way to the flock, bring me two kids of the best, that I may make of them meat for thy father, such as he gladly eateth:
10. Which when thou hast brought in, and he hath eaten, he may bless thee before he die.
11. And he answered her: Thou knowest that Esau my brother is a hairy man, and I am smooth.
12. If my father shall feel me, and perceive it, I fear lest he will think I would have mocked him, and I shall bring upon me a curse instead of a blessing.
