Abraham Blesses Jacob

²⁶Then he summoned Jacob into the presence of his mother Rebekah, kissed him, blessed him, and said, ²⁷“My dear son Jacob whom I myself love, may God bless you from above the firmament. May he give you all the blessings with which he blessed Adam, Enoch, Noah, and Shem. Everything that he said to me and everything that he promised to give me may he attach to you and your descendants until eternity—like the days of heaven above the earth. ²⁸May the spirits of Mastema^a not rule over you and your descendants to remove you from following the Lord who is your God from now and forever. ²⁹May the Lord God be your Father and you his firstborn son and people for all time. Go in peace, my son.”
