1 Isaac called Jacob and blessed him and commanded him, “You must not marry a Canaanite woman.
2 Go to the house of Bethuel, your mother’s father, in Northwest Mesopotamia. Laban, your mother’s brother, lives there. Marry one of his daughters.
3 May God Almighty bless you and give you many children, and may you become a group of many peoples.
4 May he give you and your descendants the blessing of Abraham so that you may own the land where you are now living as a stranger, the land God gave to Abraham.”
