1 When Isaac was old and going blind, he called his older son Esau and said to him, “Son!”Esau answered, “Here I am.”
2 Isaac said, “I’m old. I don’t know when I’m going to die.
3 Now take your hunting equipment, your quiver and bow, and go out into the open country and hunt some wild game for me.
4 Prepare a good-tasting meal for me, just the way I like it. Bring it to me to eat so that I will bless you before I die.”
5 Rebekah was listening while Isaac was speaking to his son Esau. When Esau went into the open country to hunt for some wild game to bring back,
6 Rebekah said to her son Jacob, “I’ve just heard your father speaking to your brother Esau.
7 He said, ‘Bring me some wild game, and prepare a good-tasting meal for me to eat so that I will bless you in the presence of the Lord before I die.’
