25. Then Isaac said, “Bring me the food. I will eat it and bless you.” So Jacob gave him the food, and he ate it. Then Jacob gave him some wine, and he drank it.
26. Then Isaac said to him. “Son, come near and kiss me.”
27. So Jacob went to his father and kissed him. When Isaac smelled Esau’s clothes, he blessed him and said, “My son smells like the fields the Lord has blessed.
28. May God give you plenty of rain, good crops, and wine.
29. May the nations serve you and many people bow down to you. You will rule over your brothers. Your mother’s sons will bow down to you and obey you. Whoever curses you will be cursed. Whoever blesses you will be blessed.”
30. Isaac finished blessing Jacob. Then, just as Jacob left his father Isaac, Esau came in from hunting.
31. Esau prepared the food in the special way his father loved. He brought it to his father and said, “Father, I am your son. Get up and eat the meat from the animals that I killed for you. Then you can bless me.”
32. But Isaac said to him, “Who are you?” He answered, “I am your son—your first son—Esau.”
33. Then Isaac became so upset that he began to shake. He said, “Then who was it that cooked and brought me food before you came? I ate it all, and I blessed him. Now it is too late to take back my blessing.”
