Genesis 28:3-7 American Standard Version (ASV)

3. And God Almighty bless thee, and make thee fruitful, and multiply thee, that thou mayest be a company of peoples.

4. And give thee the blessing of Abraham, to thee, and to thy seed with thee. That thou mayest inherit the land of thy sojournings, which God gave unto Abraham.

5. And Isaac sent away Jacob. And he went to Paddan-aram unto Laban, son of Bethuel the Syrian, the brother of Rebekah, Jacob’s and Esau’s mother.

6. Now Esau saw that Isaac had blessed Jacob and sent him away to Paddan-aram, to take him a wife from thence. And that as he blessed him he gave him a charge, saying, Thou shalt not take a wife of the daughters of Canaan.

7. And that Jacob obeyed his father and his mother, and was gone to Paddan-aram.
