Isaac had just finished blessing Jacob, and Jacob had scarcely left his father’s presence, when his brother Esau returned from the hunt.
He also prepared some tasty food and brought it to his father. Esau said to him,“My father, get up and eat some of your son’s wild game. Then you can bless me.”
His father Isaac asked,“Who are you?”“I am your firstborn son,” he replied,“Esau!”
Isaac began to shake violently and asked,“Then who else hunted game and brought it to me? I ate all of it just before you arrived, and I blessed him. He will indeed be blessed!”
When Esau heard his father’s words, he wailed loudly and bitterly. He said to his father,“Bless me too, my father!”
