הַֽבְרָכָ֨ה אַחַ֤ת הִֽוא־לְךָ֙ אָבִ֔י

בָּרֲכֵ֥נִי גַם־אָ֖נִי אָבִ֑י
(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said ˊĒsāv to/towards his/its=father [does]_a,blessing? one(fs) who/which to/for=yourself(m) my_father_of,my bless,me also/even me my_father_of,my and,he_lifted_up ˊĒsāv voice_of,his and,he_wept )
See how you translated this sentence in verse 34. Alternate translation: [Father, please bless me too!]
