Genesis 27:41-43

New International Reader's Version

⁴¹ Esau was angry with Jacob. He was angry because of the blessing his father had given to Jacob. He said to himself, “The days of sorrow over my father’s death are near. Then I’ll kill my brother Jacob.”

⁴² Rebekah was told what her older son Esau had said. So she sent for her younger son Jacob. She said to him, “Your brother Esau is planning to get back at you by killing you. ⁴³ Now then, my son, do what I say. Run away at once to my brother Laban in Harran.
