3 Now it came to pass when Isaac was very old, and his eyes began to be dark that he could not see, that calling Esau his elder son, he said unto him: My son, who said unto him, Lo here I am. 4 Then he said, Behold now, I am waxed old, & I know not the day of my death: 5 Therefore take thy implements unto thee, I pray thee, thy bow and quiver: and go into the fields, and hunt some venison for me. 6 And providing some delicate dishes for me, even as I love, bring them unto me, that I may eat, and my soul may bless thee before I die. 7 (Now Rebecca heard Isaac when he spake thus unto Esau) Esau went therefore into the field to hunt venison which he would bring. 8 But Rebecca spake unto Jacob her son, saying: Lo I heard thy father speaking unto Esau thy brother, saying: 9 Bring me venison, and provide me some dainty dishes which I may eat, afterwards I will bless thee before Jehovah, before I die.
