Genesis 27:27-29
The Voice
27 Jacob went over and kissed his father, and Isaac breathed in the scent of the outdoors on Esau’s clothes. Then he gave Jacob the blessing, passing on the promise of God’s covenant.
Isaac: Ah, the smell of my son, Esau,
is like the smell of a field the Eternal One has blessed.
28 Therefore, may God grant you gentle showers from heaven
and the fertile soils of the earth,
and rich harvests of grain and wine.
29 May many peoples come and serve you,
and may nations bow down to you.
May you be the master of your brothers,
and may your mother’s sons all bow down before you.
May anyone who curses you be cursed,
and may everyone who blesses you be blessed!
Genesis 27:27-29
New International Version

“Ah, the smell of my son
is like the smell of a field
that the Lord has blessed.(D)
28 May God give you heaven’s dew(E)
and earth’s richness(F)—
an abundance of grain(G) and new wine.(H)
29 May nations serve you
and peoples bow down to you.(I)
Be lord over your brothers,
and may the sons of your mother bow down to you.(J)
May those who curse you be cursed
and those who bless you be blessed.(K)”
