Genesis 27:14-21 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

14. So Jacob went out and got two goats and brought them to his mother. Then she cooked them in the special way Isaac enjoyed.

15. She took the best clothes of her older son Esau that were in the house. She put them on the younger son Jacob.

16. She took the skins of the goats. And she put them on Jacob’s hands and neck.

17. Then she gave Jacob the tasty food and the bread she had made.

18. Jacob went in to his father and said, “Father.”And his father said, “Yes, my son. Who are you?”

19. Jacob said to him, “I am Esau, your first son. I have done what you told me. Now sit up and eat some meat of the animal I hunted for you. Then bless me.”

20. But Isaac asked his son, “How did you find and kill the animal so quickly?”Jacob answered, “Because the Lord your God led me to find it.”

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