Genesis 27:41-46

41And EsauH6215 hatedH7852 JacobH3290 becauseH5921 of the blessingH1293 wherewith his fatherH1 blessedH1288 him: and EsauH6215 saidH559 in his heartH3820, The daysH3117 of mourningH60 for my fatherH1 are at hand; then will I slayH2026 my brotherH251 JacobH3290. 42And the wordsH1697 of EsauH6215 herH413 elderH1419 sonH1121 were toldH5046 to RebekahH7259; and sheH7121 sentH7971 and calledH7121 JacobH3290 herH413 youngerH6996 sonH1121, and saidH559 unto him, BeholdH2009, thy brotherH251 EsauH6215, as touching thee, doth comfortH5162 himselfH413, purposing to killH2026 thee. 43NowH6258 therefore, my sonH1121, obeyH8085 my voiceH6963; and ariseH6965, fleeH1272 thou to LabanH3837 my brotherH251 to HaranH2771; 44and tarry with him a fewH259 daysH3117, untilH5704 thy brother’sH251 furyH2534 turnH7725 awayH7725; 45untilH5704 thy brother’sH251 angerH639 turnH7725 awayH7971 from thee, and he forgetH7911 that whichH834 thou hast doneH6213 to him: then I will sendH7971, and fetch thee from thence: whyH4100 should I be bereavedH7921 of youH834 bothH8147 in one dayH3117? 46And RebekahH7259 saidH559 to IsaacH3327, I am weary of my lifeH2416 becauseH6440 of the daughtersH1323 of HethH2845: ifH518 JacobH3290 takeH3947 a wifeH802 of the daughtersH1323 of HethH2845, suchH428 as theseH428, of the daughtersH1323 of the landH776, whatH4100 good shall my lifeH2416 doH4100 meH413?
