²¹ And Isaac said, Come near so that I may put my hand on you, my son, and see if you are truly my son Esau or not.

¹² If by chance my father puts his hand on me, it will seem to him that I am tricking him, and he will put a curse on me in place of a blessing.

²⁸ But it is good for me to come near to God: I have put my faith in the Lord God, so that I may make clear all his works.

¹⁹ I will give the fruit of the lips: Peace, peace, to him who is near and to him who is far off, says the Lord; and I will make him well.

⁸ Come near to God and he will come near to you. Make your hands clean, you evil-doers; put away deceit from your hearts, you false in mind.
