“See, the smell of my son

is as the smell of a field that the Lord has blessed!

28  May God give you of the ^wdew of heaven

and of the ^xfatness of the earth

and plenty of ^ygrain and wine.

29  Let peoples serve you,

and nations bow down to you.

^zBe lord over your brothers,

and ^amay your mother’s sons bow down to you.

^bCursed be everyone who curses you,

and blessed be everyone who blesses you!”

“Behold, away from¹ the fatness of the earth shall your dwelling be,

and away from² the dew of heaven on high.

40  By your sword you shall live,

and you shall serve your brother;

^hbut when you grow restless

you shall break his yoke from your neck.”
