41 И возненавидел Исав Иакова за благословение, которым благословил его отец его; и сказал Исав в сердце своем: приближаются дни плача по отце моем, и я убью Иакова, брата моего.

42 И пересказаны были Ревекке слова Исава, старшего сына ее; и она послала, и призвала младшего сына своего Иакова, и сказала ему: вот, Исав, брат твой, грозит убить тебя;

43 и теперь, сын мой, послушайся слов моих, встань, беги к Лавану, брату моему, в Харран,

44 и поживи у него несколько времени, пока утолится ярость брата твоего,

45 пока утолится гнев брата твоего на тебя, и он позабудет, что ты сделал ему: тогда я пошлю и возьму тебя оттуда; для чего мне в один день лишиться обоих вас?

46 И сказала Ревекка Исааку: я жизни не рада от дочерей Хеттейских; если Иаков возьмет жену из дочерей Хеттейских, каковы эти, из дочерей этой земли, то к чему мне и жизнь?

1 И призвал Исаак Иакова и благословил его, и заповедал ему и сказал: не бери себе жены из дочерей Ханаанских;

2 Arise, and go to Mesopotamia, to the house of Bethuel thy mother's father, and take thee a wife from thence of the daughters of Laban thy mother's brother.

3 And God Almighty bless thee, that he may multiply thee, and that he may multiply thee, and that of thee there shall be a multitude of nations,

4 And may Abraham give thee the blessing of Abraham, and thee and thy seed with thee, that thou mayest inherit the land of thy pilgrimage which God gave unto Abraham.

5 And Isaac sent Jacob away, and he went to Mesopotamia to Laban the son of Bethuel the Aramean, to the brother of Rebekah, the mother of Jacob and Esau.

6 And when Esau saw that Isaac had blessed Jacob, and having blessed him, he had sent him to Mesopotamia to take a wife from there, and commanded him, saying, "Thou shalt not take a wife from the daughters of Canaan;

7 and that Jacob obeyed his father and his mother, and went into Mesopotamia.

8 And Esau saw that the daughters of Canaan were not pleasing to Isaac his father;

9 And Esau went to Ishmael, and took for himself a wife, Mahalatha, the daughter of Ishmael, the son of Abraham, the sister of Nebaioth, above his other wives.

10 And Jacob went out of Beersheba, and went to Haran,

11 And he came to a certain place, and stayed there for the night, because the sun had gone down. And he took one of the stones of that place, and put it at his head, and lay down in that place.

12 And he saw in a dream, Behold, a ladder stood on the earth, and the top of it touched the sky; and behold, the angels of God ascend and descend on it.

13 And behold, the Lord stands upon it, saying, 'I am the Lord, the God of Abraham your father, and the God of Isaac.' The land on which you lie I will give you and your descendants;

14 And thy descendants shall be as the sand of the earth; and you will spread to the sea, and to the east, and to the north, and to the noonday; and in thee and in thy seed shall all the families of the earth be blessed;

15 And behold, I am with thee, and I will keep thee wherever thou goest; and I will bring you back to this land, for I will not leave you until I have done what I have told you.
