1 Isaac had become old. His eyes were so weak he couldn't see anymore. One day he called for his older son Esau. He said to him, "My son." "Here I am," he answered.
2 Isaac said, "I'm an old man now. And I don't know when I'll die.
3 Now then, get your weapons. Get your bow and arrows. Go out to the open country. Hunt some wild animals for me.
4 Prepare for me the kind of tasty food I like. Bring it to me to eat. Then I'll give you my blessing before I die."
5 Rebekah was listening when Isaac spoke to his son Esau. Esau left for the open country. He went to hunt for a wild animal and bring it back.
