Genesis 27:20-24 Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version (ETR)

20. But Isaac said to his son, “How have you hunted and killed the animals so quickly?” Jacob answered, “Because the Lord your God allowed me to find the animals quickly.”

21. Then Isaac said to Jacob, “Come near to me so that I can feel you, my son. If I can feel you, I will know if you are really my son Esau.”

22. So Jacob went to Isaac his father. Isaac felt him and said, “Your voice sounds like Jacob’s voice, but your arms are hairy like the arms of Esau.”

23. Isaac did not know it was Jacob, because his arms were hairy like Esau’s. So Isaac blessed Jacob.

24. Isaac said, “Are you really my son Esau?” Jacob answered, “Yes, I am.”
