30 Jacob had scarcely left his father after Isaac had finished blessing him, when his brother Esau came back from his hunt.
31 Then he too prepared a dish, and bringing it to his father, he said, “Let my father sit up and eat some of his son’s game, that you may then give me your blessing.”
32 His father Isaac asked him, “Who are you?” He said, “I am your son, your firstborn son, Esau.”
33 Isaac trembled greatly. “Who was it, then,” he asked, “that hunted game and brought it to me? I ate it all just before you came, and I blessed him. Now he is blessed!”
34 As he heard his father’s words, Esau burst into loud, bitter sobbing and said, “Father, bless me too!”
35 When Isaac said, “Your brother came here by a ruse and carried off your blessing,”
36 Esau exclaimed, “He is well named Jacob, is he not! He has supplanted me twice! First he took away my right as firstborn, and now he has taken away my blessing.” Then he said, “Have you not saved a blessing for me?”
