Genesis 27:25-29
King James Version
25 And he said, Bring it near to me, and I will eat of my son's venison, that my soul may bless thee. And he brought it near to him, and he did eat: and he brought him wine and he drank.
26 And his father Isaac said unto him, Come near now, and kiss me, my son.
27 And he came near, and kissed him: and he smelled the smell of his raiment, and blessed him, and said, See, the smell of my son is as the smell of a field which the Lord hath blessed:
28 Therefore God give thee of the dew of heaven, and the fatness of the earth, and plenty of corn and wine:
29 Let people serve thee, and nations bow down to thee: be lord over thy brethren, and let thy mother's sons bow down to thee: cursed be every one that curseth thee, and blessed be he that blesseth thee.

Genesis 27:25-29
New King James Version
25 He said, “Bring it near to me, and I will eat of my son’s game, so (A)that my soul may bless you.” So he brought it near to him, and he ate; and he brought him wine, and he drank. 26 Then his father Isaac said to him, “Come near now and kiss me, my son.” 27 And he came near and (B)kissed him; and he smelled the smell of his clothing, and blessed him and said:
“Surely, (C)the smell of my son
Is like the smell of a field
Which the Lord has blessed.
28 Therefore may (D)God give you
Of (E)the dew of heaven,
Of (F)the fatness of the earth,
And (G)plenty of grain and wine.
29 (H)Let peoples serve you,
And nations bow down to you.
Be master over your brethren,
And (I)let your mother’s sons bow down to you.
(J)Cursed be everyone who curses you,
And blessed be those who bless you!”
