10. Then take the food to your father so he can eat it and bless you before he dies.”
11. “But look,” Jacob replied to Rebekah, “my brother, Esau, is a hairy man, and my skin is smooth.
12. What if my father touches me? He’ll see that I’m trying to trick him, and then he’ll curse me instead of blessing me.”
13. But his mother replied, “Then let the curse fall on me, my son! Just do what I tell you. Go out and get the goats for me!”
14. So Jacob went out and got the young goats for his mother. Rebekah took them and prepared a delicious meal, just the way Isaac liked it.
15. Then she took Esau’s favorite clothes, which were there in the house, and gave them to her younger son, Jacob.
16. She covered his arms and the smooth part of his neck with the skin of the young goats.
