Jacob's Deception

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:1 - Now it came H1961 about, when H3588 Isaac H3327 was old H2204 and his eyes H5869 were too H4480 dim H3543 to see, H7200 that he called H7121 his older H1419 son H1121 Esau H6215 and said H559 to him, “My son.” H1121 And he said H559 to him, “Here H2009 I am.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:2 - [fn]Isaac said, H559 “Behold H2009 now, H4994 I am H2204 old H2204 and I do not know H3045 the day H3117 of my death. H4194
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:3 - “Now H6258 then, please H4994 take H5375 your gear, H3627 your quiver H8522 and your bow, H7198 and go H3318 out to the field H7704 and hunt H6679 game H6718 for me;
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:4 - and prepare H6213 a savory H4303 dish H4303 for me such H834 as I love, H157 and bring H935 it to me that I may eat, H398 so H5668 that my soul H5315 may bless H1288 you before H2962 I die.” H4191
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:5 - Rebekah H7259 was listening H8085 while Isaac H3327 spoke H1696 to his son H1121 Esau. H6215 So when Esau H6215 went H1980 to the field H7704 to hunt H6679 for game H6718 to bring H935 home,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:6 - Rebekah H7259 said H559 to her son H1121 Jacob, H3290 “Behold, H2009 I heard H8085 your father H1 speak H1696 to your brother H251 Esau, H6215 saying, H559
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:7 - ‘Bring H935 me some game H6718 and prepare H6213 a savory H4303 dish H4303 for me, that I may eat, H398 and bless H1288 you in the presence H6440 of the LORD H3068 before H6440 my death.’ H4194
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:8 - “Now H6258 therefore, my son, H1121 listen H8085 to [fn]me [fn]as I command H6680 you.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:9 - “Go H1980 now H4994 to the flock H6629 and [fn]bring H3947 me two H8147 choice H2896 [fn]young H1423 H5795 goats H1423 H5795 from there, H8033 that I may prepare H6213 them as a savory H4303 dish H4303 for your father, H1 such H834 as he loves. H157
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:10 - “Then you shall bring H935 it to your father, H1 that he may eat, H398 so H5668 that he may bless H1288 you before H6440 his death.” H4194
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:11 - Jacob H3290 [fn]answered H559 his mother H517 Rebekah, H7259 “Behold, H2005 Esau H6215 my brother H251 is a hairy H8163 man H376 and I am a smooth H2509 man. H376
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:12 - “Perhaps H194 my father H1 will feel H4959 me, then I will be as a [fn]deceiver H8591 in his sight, H5869 and I will bring H935 upon myself a curse H7045 and not a blessing.” H1293
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:13 - But his mother H517 said H559 to him, “Your curse H7045 be on me, my son; H1121 only H389 obey H8085 my voice, H6963 and go, H1980 get H3947 them for me.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:14 - So he went H1980 and got H3947 them, and brought H935 them to his mother; H517 and his mother H517 made H6213 savory H4303 food H4303 such H834 as his father H1 loved. H157
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:15 - Then Rebekah H7259 took H3947 the [fn]best H2532 garments H899 of Esau H6215 her elder H1419 son, H1121 which H834 were with her in the house, H1004 and put H3847 them on Jacob H3290 her younger H6996 son. H1121
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:16 - And she put H3847 the skins H5785 of the [fn]young H1423 H5795 goats H1423 H5795 on his hands H3027 and on the smooth H2513 part H2513 of his neck. H6677
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:17 - She also gave H5414 the savory H4303 food H4303 and the bread, H3899 which H834 she had made, H6213 [fn]to her son H1121 Jacob. H3290
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:18 - Then he came H935 to his father H1 and said, H559 “My father.” H1 And he said, H559 “Here H2009 I am. Who H4310 are you, my son?” H1121
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:19 - Jacob H3290 said H559 to his father, H1 “I am Esau H6215 your firstborn; H1060 I have done H6213 as you told H1696 me. Get H6965 up, please, H4994 sit H3427 and eat H398 of my game, H6718 that [fn]you may bless H1288 me.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:20 - Isaac H3327 said H559 to his son, H1121 “How H4100 is it that you have H4672 it so quickly, H4116 my son?” H1121 And he said, H559 “Because H3588 the LORD H3068 your God H430 caused it to happen H7136 to me.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:21 - Then Isaac H3327 said H559 to Jacob, H3290 “Please H4994 come H5066 close, H5066 that I may feel H4184 you, my son, H1121 whether you are really H2088 my son H1121 Esau H6215 or H518 not.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:22 - So Jacob H3290 came H5066 close H5066 to Isaac H3327 his father, H1 and he felt H4959 him and said, H559 “The voice H6963 is the voice H6963 of Jacob, H3290 but the hands H3027 are the hands H3027 of Esau.” H6215
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:23 - He did not recognize H5234 him, because H3588 his hands H3027 were hairy H8163 like his brother H251 Esau’s H6215 hands; H3027 so he blessed H1288 him.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:24 - And he said, H559 “Are you really H2088 my son H1121 Esau?” H6215 And he said, H559 “I am.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:25 - So he said, H559 “Bring H5066 it to me, and I will eat H398 of my son’s H1121 game, H6718 that [fn]I may bless H1288 you.” And he brought H5066 it to him, and he ate; H398 he also brought H935 him wine H3196 and he drank. H8354
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:26 - Then his father H1 Isaac H3327 said H559 to him, “Please H4994 come H5066 close H5066 and kiss H5401 me, my son.” H1121
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:27 - So he came H5066 close H5066 and kissed H5401 him; and when he smelled H7306 the smell H7381 of his garments, H899 he blessed H1288 him and said, H559
“See, H7200 the smell H7381 of my son H1121
Is like the smell H7381 of a field H7704 which H834 the LORD H3068 has blessed; H1288
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:28 - Now may God H430 give H5414 you of the dew H2919 of heaven, H8064
And of the fatness H8082 of the earth, H776
And an abundance H7230 of grain H1715 and new H8492 wine; H8492
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:29 - May peoples H5971 serve H5647 you,
And nations H3816 bow H7812 down H7812 to you;
Be master H1376 of your brothers, H251
And may your mother’s H517 sons H1121 bow H7812 down H7812 to you.
Cursed H779 be those who curse H779 you,
And blessed H1288 be those who bless H1288 you.”

The Stolen Blessing

(Heb 12:17 )
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:30 - Now it came H1961 about, as soon H834 as Isaac H3327 had finished H3615 blessing H1288 Jacob, H3290 and Jacob H3290 had hardly H389 H3318 gone H3318 out from the presence H6440 of Isaac H3327 his father, H1 that Esau H6215 his brother H251 came H935 in from his hunting. H6718
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:31 - Then he also H1571 made H6213 savory H4303 food, H4303 and brought H935 it to his father; H1 and he said H559 to his father, H1 “Let my father H1 arise H6965 and eat H398 of his son’s H1121 game, H6718 that [fn]you may bless H1288 me.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:32 - Isaac H3327 his father H1 said H559 to him, “Who H4310 are you?” And he said, H559 “I am your son, H1121 your firstborn, H1060 Esau.” H6215
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:33 - Then Isaac H3327 [fn]trembled H2729 violently, H2731 H1419 H5704 H3966 and said, H559 “Who H4310 was he then H645 that hunted H6679 game H6718 and brought H935 it to me, so that I ate H398 of all H3605 of it before H2962 you came, H935 and blessed H1288 him? Yes, H1571 and he shall be blessed.” H1288
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:34 - When Esau H6215 heard H8085 the words H1697 of his father, H1 he cried H6817 out with an exceedingly H3966 great H1419 and bitter H4751 cry, H6818 and said H559 to his father, H1 “Bless H1288 me, even me also, H1571 O my father!” H1
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:35 - And he said, H559 “Your brother H251 came H935 deceitfully H4820 and has taken H3947 away your blessing.” H1293
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:36 - Then he said, H559[fn]Is he not rightly named H7121 H8034 Jacob, H3290 for he has supplanted H6117 me these H2088 two H6471 times? H6471 He took H3947 away my birthright, H1062 and behold, H2009 now H6258 he has taken H3947 away my blessing.” H1293 And he said, H559 “Have you not reserved H680 a blessing H1293 for me?”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:37 - But Isaac H3327 replied H6030 to Esau, H6215 “Behold, H2005 I have made H7760 him your master, H1376 and all H3605 his [fn]relatives H251 I have given H5414 to him [fn]as servants; H5650 and with grain H1715 and new H8492 wine H8492 I have sustained H5564 him. Now as for you then, H645 what H4100 can I do, H6213 my son?” H1121
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:38 - Esau H6215 said H559 to his father, H1 “Do you have only one H259 blessing, H1293 my father? H1 Bless H1288 me, even me also, H1571 O my father.” H1 So Esau H6215 lifted H5375 his voice H6963 and wept. H1058
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:39 - Then Isaac H3327 his father H1 answered H6030 and said H559 to him,
“Behold, H2009 [fn]away from the [fn]fertility H8082 of the earth H776 shall be your dwelling, H4186
And [fn]away from the dew H2919 of heaven H8064 from above. H5921
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:40 - “By your sword H2719 you shall live, H2421
And your brother H251 you shall serve; H5647
But it shall come H1961 about when H834 you become H7300 restless, H7300
That you will [fn]break H6561 his yoke H5923 from your neck.” H6677
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:41 - So Esau H6215 bore H7852 a grudge H7852 against H7852 Jacob H3290 because H5921 of the blessing H1293 with which H834 his father H1 had blessed H1288 him; and Esau H6215 said H559 [fn]to himself, H3820 “The days H3117 of mourning H60 for my father H1 are near; H7126 then I will kill H2026 my brother H251 Jacob.” H3290
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:42 - Now when the words H1697 of her elder H1419 son H1121 Esau H6215 were reported H5046 to Rebekah, H7259 she sent H7971 and called H7121 her younger H6996 son H1121 Jacob, H3290 and said H559 to him, “Behold H2009 your brother H251 Esau H6215 is consoling H5162 himself concerning you by planning to kill H2026 you.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:43 - “Now H6258 therefore, my son, H1121 obey H8085 my voice, H6963 and arise, H6965 [fn]flee H1272 to Haran, H2771 to my brother H251 Laban! H3837
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:44 - “Stay H3427 with him a few H259 days, H3117 until H5704 H834 your brother’s H251 fury H2534 [fn]subsides, H7725
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:45 - until H5704 your brother’s H251 anger H639 [fn]against H4480 you subsides H7725 and he forgets H7911 what H834 you did H6213 to him. Then I will send H7971 and get H3947 you from there. H8033 Why H4100 should I be bereaved H7921 of you both H8147 in one H259 day?” H3117
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:46 - Rebekah H7259 said H559 to Isaac, H3327 “I am tired H6973 of [fn]living H2416 because H4480 H6440 of the daughters H1323 of Heth; H2845 if H518 Jacob H3290 takes H3947 a wife H802 from the daughters H1323 of Heth, H2845 like these, H428 from the daughters H1323 of the land, H776 what H4100 good will my life H2416 be to me?”
