8 Now listen to me, Son, and do what I tell you.

9 Go to the flock, and get me two good young goats. I'll prepare them as a good-tasting meal for your father, just the way he likes it.

10 Then take it to your father to eat so that he will bless you before he dies.|

11 Jacob said to his mother Rebekah, |My brother Esau is a hairy man, and my skin is smooth.

12 My father will feel [my skin] and think I'm mocking him. Then I'll bring a curse on myself instead of a blessing.|

13 His mother responded, |Let any curse on you fall on me, Son. Just obey me and go! Get me [the young goats].|
