2. Isaac said, “I am old. I don’t know when I might die.

3. So take your bow and arrows, and go hunting in the field. Kill an animal for me to eat.

4. Prepare the tasty food that I love. Bring it to me, and I will eat. Then I will bless you before I die.”

5. So Esau went out in the field to hunt.Rebekah was listening as Isaac said this to his son Esau.

6. Rebekah said to her son Jacob, “Listen, I heard your father talking to your brother Esau.

7. Your father said, ‘Kill an animal. Prepare some tasty food for me to eat. Then I will bless you before the Lord before I die.’

8. So obey me, my son. Do what I tell you.

9. Go out to our goats and bring me two young ones. I will prepare them just the way your father likes them.

10. Then you will take the food to your father. And he will bless you before he dies.”
