Genesis 27:41-46

« Gen 26Gen 27Gen 28 »

41 So Esau ^abore a grudge against Jacob because of the blessing with which his father had blessed him; and Esau said in his heart, “^bThe days of mourning for my father are near; then I will kill my brother Jacob.” 42 Then the words of her elder son Esau were told to Rebekah. So she sent and called her younger son Jacob and said to him, “Behold, your brother Esau is consoling himself concerning you by planning to kill you. 43 So now, my son, ^alisten to my voice, and arise, ¹flee to ^bHaran, to my brother ^cLaban! 44 Stay with him ^aa few days, until your brother’s wrath ¹subsides, 45 until your brother’s anger ¹against you subsides and he forgets ^awhat you did to him. Then I will send and get you from there. Why should I be bereaved of you both in one day?”
46 Then Rebekah said to Isaac, “I am tired of ¹living because of ^athe daughters of Heth; ^bif Jacob takes a wife from the daughters of Heth, like these, from the daughters of the land, what good will my life be to me?”
