27 So he came near and kissed him. And Isaac smelled the smell of his garments (A)and blessed him and said,

“See, (B)the smell of my son
    is as the smell of a field that the Lord has blessed!
28 May God give you of (C)the dew of heaven
    and of the fatness of the earth
    and (D)plenty of grain and wine.
29 Let peoples serve you,
    and nations (E)bow down to you.
(F)Be lord over your brothers,
    and may your mother's sons bow down to you.
(G)Cursed be everyone who curses you,
    and blessed be everyone who blesses you!”

39 Then Isaac his father answered and said to him:

“Behold, (A)away from[a] the fatness of the earth shall your dwelling be,
    and away from[b] the dew of heaven on high.
40 By your sword you shall live,
    and you (B)shall serve your brother;
but when you grow restless
    (C)you shall break his yoke from your neck.”
