38. And Esau said to him: "Have you only one blessing, father? I beg you, bless me also." And when he wept with a loud wail,
39. Isaac was moved, and he said to him: "In the fatness of the earth, and in the dew of heaven from above,
40. will your blessing be. You will live by the sword, and you will serve your brother. But the time will arrive when you will shake off and release his yoke from your neck."
41. Therefore, Esau always hated Jacob, for the blessing with which his father had blessed him. And he said in his heart, "The days will arrive for the mourning of my father, and I will kill my brother Jacob."
42. These things were reported to Rebekah. And sending and calling for her son Jacob, she said to him, "Behold, your brother Esau is threatening to kill you.
43. Therefore, now my son, listen to my voice. Rise up and flee to my brother Laban, in Haran.
44. And you will dwell with him for a few days, until the fury of your brother subsides,
45. and his indignation ceases, and he forgets the things that you have done to him. After this, I will send for you and bring you from there to here. Why should I be bereaved of both my sons in one day?"
46. And Rebekah said to Isaac, "I am weary of my life because of the daughters of Heth. If Jacob accepts a wife from the stock of this land, I would not be willing to live."
