Jacob responded, |...because the LORD your God made me successful.| 21 So Isaac told Jacob, |Come here, my son, so I can feel you and know for sure whether or not you're my son Esau.| 22 So Jacob approached his father, who felt him and said, |It's Jacob's voice, but Esau's hands.| 23 He didn't recognize Jacob, because his hands were hairy like those of his brother Esau, so Isaac blessed him. 24 He asked, |Are you really my son Esau?| |I am,| Jacob replied.
