Ja-cob was scarce yet gone out from his fa-ther when E-sau came in from the hunt. And he brought in a nice dish of meat, and said, Let my fa-ther rise and eat of the flesh of the deer, that thy soul may bless me.
And I-saac said, Who art thou?
And he said, I am thy son, thy first-born, E-sau.
And I-saac shook like a leaf, and said, Who? Where is he that took deer's meat and brought it to me so that I did eat ere this, and bless him? Yea, and he shall be blest.
When E-sau heard these words he cried out with great grief, and said to his fa-ther, Bless me too, O my fa-ther!
But I-saac said that he could not take from Ja-cob what was now his—though he had won it through fraud.
And E-sau said in his heart, My fa-ther will soon be dead, and then I will kill Ja-cob.
JA-COB'S DREAM.
