Genesis 27:39-41
39Then 1Isaac his father answered and said to him, “Behold, 23away from the 4fertility of the earth shall be your dwelling, And 5away from the dew of heaven from above.40By your sword you shall live, And your brother 6you shall serve; But it shall come about 7when you become restless, That you will 8break his yoke from your neck.”
41So Esau 9bore a grudge against Jacob because of the blessing with which his father had blessed him; and Esau said 10to himself, “11The days of mourning for my father are near; then I will kill my brother Jacob.”
