Genesis 27:21

World Messianic Bible British Edition

Isaac said to Jacob, “Please come near, that I may feel you, my son, whether you are really my son Esau or not.”

See the chapter Copy

What if my father touches me? I will seem to him as a deceiver, and I would bring a curse on myself, and not a blessing.”

Jacob went near to Isaac his father. He felt him, and said, “The voice is Jacob’s voice, but the hands are the hands of Esau.”

But it is good for me to come close to God. I have made the Lord GOD my refuge, that I may tell of all your works.

I create the fruit of the lips: Peace, peace, to him who is far off and to him who is near,” says the LORD; “and I will heal them.”

Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners. Purify your hearts, you double-minded.
