So Jacob went out and got two goats and brought them to his mother, and she cooked them in the special way Isaac enjoyed.
Isaac loved Esau because he hunted the wild animals that Isaac enjoyed eating. But Rebekah loved Jacob.
So Rebekah said to him, “If your father puts a curse on you, I will accept the blame. Just do what I said. Go get the goats for me.”
She took the best clothes of her older son Esau that were in the house and put them on the younger son Jacob.
Then she gave Jacob the tasty food and the bread she had made.
He also prepared some tasty food and brought it to his father. He said, “Father, rise and eat the food that your son killed for you and then bless me.”
When you prepare the tasty food that I love, bring it to me, and I will eat. Then I will bless you before I die.”
‘Kill an animal and prepare some tasty food for me to eat. Then I will bless you in the presence of the Lord before I die.’
Go out to our goats and bring me two of the best young ones. I will prepare them just the way your father likes them.
Take away my desire to do evil or to join others in doing wrong. Don’t let me eat tasty food with those who do evil.
