25 He said, “Bring it near to me, and I will eat of my son’s game, so ^athat my soul may bless you.” So he brought it near to him, and he ate; and he brought him wine, and he drank.  ‡

26 Then his father Isaac said to him, “Come near now and kiss me, my son.”

27 And he came near and ^akissed him; and he smelled the smell of his clothing, and blessed him and said:
“Surely, ^bthe smell of my son
Is like the smell of a field
Which the Lord has blessed. ‡

28 Therefore may ^aGod give you
Of ^bthe dew of heaven,
Of ^cthe fatness of the earth,
And ^dplenty of grain and wine. ‡

29 ^aLet peoples serve you,
And nations bow down to you.
Be master over your brethren,
And ^blet your mother’s sons bow down to you.
^cCursed be everyone who curses you,
And blessed be those who bless you!”  ‡
