Genesis 27:42-46 Good News Bible Anglicised (GNBDC)

42. But when Rebecca heard about Esau's plan, she sent for Jacob and said, “Listen, your brother Esau is planning to get even with you and kill you.

43. Now, my son, do what I say. Go at once to my brother Laban in Haran,

44. and stay with him for a while, until your brother's anger cools down

45. and he forgets what you have done to him. Then I will send someone to bring you back. Why should I lose both my sons on the same day?”

46. Rebecca said to Isaac, “I am sick and tired of Esau's foreign wives. If Jacob also marries one of these Hittite women, I might as well die.”
