Genesis 27:1-4

1 In the course of time, after Yitz'chak had grown old and his eyes dim, so that he couldn't see, he called 'Esav his older son and said to him, "My son?" and he answered, "Here I am."
2 "Look, I'm old now, I don't know when I will die.
3 Therefore, please take your hunting gear - your quiver of arrows and your bow; go out in the country, and get me some game.
4 Make it tasty, the way I like it; and bring it to me to eat. Then I will bless you [as firstborn], before I die."
