Esau Gets “Blessed” Too by Isaac

27:30-40

30 Then it happened, just as Isaac finished blessing Jacob, and it happened, scarcely had Jacob just left from the presence of Isaac his father, then Esau his brother came in from his hunt. 31 Then he too prepared tasty food, and he brought it to his father and said to his father, “Let my father get up and eat from his son’s game so that your soul can bless me.” 32 But Isaac his father said to him, “Who are you?” And he said, “I am your son, your firstborn Esau.” 33 Then Isaac trembled a very great tremble, and he said, “Then who was it that hunted game and brought it to me? And I ate from it all just before you came, and I blessed him. Indeed, he will be blessed.” 34 When Esau heard the words of his father, then he cried out a great and exceedingly bitter cry and said to his father, “Bless me, me too, my father!” 35 And he said, “Your brother came in deceit and took your blessing.” 36 Then he said, “Is it because his name is called Jacob that he has defrauded me these two times? He took my birthright, and behold, now he has taken my blessing!”

Then he said, “Have you not reserved a blessing for me?” 37 But Isaac responded and said to Esau, “Behold, I have made him master over you, and I have given all his brothers to him as servants. And I have sustained him with grain and wine. So then, what can I do for you, my son?” 38 But Esau said to his father, “Is there one blessing that you have, my father? Bless me, me too, my father!” Then Esau lifted his voice and sobbed. 39 Then Isaac his father responded and said to him,

“Behold, your dwelling will be

away from the fatness of the earth

and away from the dew of the heavens from above.

40 And you will live by your sword,

and you will serve your brother.

But it will happen when you become restless,

then you will break his yoke

off of your neck.”
