In context

1 So Isaac called for Jacob and blessed him. “Do not take a wife from the Canaanite women,” he commanded.

2 “Go at once to Paddan-aram, to the house of your mother’s father Bethuel, and take a wife from among the daughters of Laban, your mother’s brother.

3 May God Almighty bless you and make you fruitful and multiply you, so that you may become a company of peoples.

4 And may He give the blessing of Abraham to you and your descendants, so that you may possess the land where you dwell as a foreigner, the land God gave to Abraham.”

5 So Isaac sent Jacob to Paddan-aram, to Laban son of Bethuel the Aramean, the brother of Rebekah, who was the mother of Jacob and Esau.

6 Now Esau learned that Isaac had blessed Jacob and sent him to Paddan-aram to take a wife there, commanding him, “Do not marry a Canaanite woman,”

7 and that Jacob had obeyed his father and mother and gone to Paddan-aram.
