11 Y Jacob dijo á Rebeca su madre: He aquí, Esaú mi hermano es hombre velloso, y yo lampiño:
12 Quizá me tentará mi padre, y me tendrá por burlador, y traeré sobre mí maldición y no bendición.
13 Y su madre respondió: Hijo mío, sobre mí tu maldición: solamente obedece á mi voz, y ve y tráemelos.
14 Entonces él fué, y tomó, y trájolos á su madre: y su madre hizo guisados, como su padre gustaba.
