Jacob Is Sent to Laban
28 So Isaac called Jacob and (A)blessed him and commanded him and said to him, “(B)You shall not take a wife from the daughters of Canaan. 2 Arise, go to Paddan-aram, to the house of (C)Bethuel your mother’s father; and from there take to yourself a wife from the daughters of Laban your mother’s brother. 3 May [a](D)God Almighty (E)bless you and (F)make you fruitful and (G)multiply you, that you may become an (H)assembly of peoples.
