Tree Of Life Version

Genesis 27:11-19 Tree Of Life Version (TLV)

11. But Jacob said to Rebekah his mother, “Look, my brother Esau is a hairy man, but I’m a smooth man.

12. Perhaps my father will touch me, and he’ll take me for a mocker, and I’ll bring upon myself a curse and not a blessing.”

13. Then his mother said to him, “Let your curse fall on me, my son. Just listen to me, and go, get them for me.”

14. So he went and got them, and brought them to his mother, and his mother prepared a delicious meal that his father would love.

15. Rebekah also took her elder son Esau’s favorite clothes that were with her in the house, and she put them on her younger son Jacob,

16. along with the skins of the young goats on his hands and on the hairless part of his neck.

17. She put the delicious meal and the bread that she had prepared in the hand of Jacob her son.

18. Then he came to his father and said, “My father.” And he said, “I’m here. Who are you, my son?”

19. Then Jacob said to his father, “I’m your firstborn, Esau. I’ve done just what you said to me. Sit up, please, and eat some of my wild game so that your soul may bless me.”
