19 Jacob answered his father, |I'm Esau, your firstborn. I've done what you told me. Sit up and eat this meat I've hunted for you so that you may bless me.|

20 Isaac asked his son, |How did you find it so quickly, Son?| |The LORD your God brought it to me,| he answered.

21 Then Isaac said to Jacob, |Come over here so that I can feel your skin, Son, [to find out] whether or not you really are my son Esau.|

22 So Jacob went over to his father. Isaac felt [his skin]. |The voice is Jacob's,| he said, |but the hands are Esau's.|

23 He didn't recognize Jacob, because his hands were hairy like his brother Esau's hands. So he blessed him.
