Genesis 28:1-4 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

1. Then Isaac called Jacob and blessed him. And he instructed him and said to him, “You must not take a wife from the daughters of Canaan.

2. Arise, go to Paddan-Aram, to the house of Bethuel, your mother’s father, and take for yourself a wife from there, from the daughters of Laban your mother’s brother.

3. Now, may El-Shaddai bless you, and make you fruitful, and multiply you, so that you become an assembly of peoples.

4. And may he give you the blessing of Abraham, to you and to your descendants with you, that you may take possession of the land of your sojourning, which God gave to Abraham.”
