CHAP. XXVIII.
1 Isaac blesseth Iacob, and sendeth him to Padan Aram. 6 Esau marrieth Mahalal the daughter of Ishmael. 10 The Vision of Iacobs ladder. 18 The stone of Bethel. 20 Iacobs vow.
2 Arise, goe to Padan Aram, to the house of Bethuel thy mothers father, and take thee a wife from thence, of the daughters of Laban thy mothers brother.2
3 And God Almighty blesse thee, and make thee fruitfull, and multiply thee, that thou mayest be a multitude of people:3
4 And giue thee the blessing of Abraham, to thee and to thy seede with thee, that thou mayest inherit the lande wherein thou art a stranger, which God gaue vnto Abraham.4
7 And that Iacob obeyed his father, and his mother, and was gone to Padan-Aram;
8 And Esau seeing that the daughters of Canaan pleased not Isaac his father.8
10 ¶ And Iacob went out from Beer-sheba, and went toward Haran.10
13 And behold, the LORD stood aboue it, and said, I am the LORD God of Abraham thy father, and the God of Isaac: the land whereon thou liest, to thee will I giue it, and to thy seede.13
14 And thy seed shall be as the dust of the earth, and thou shalt spread abroad to the West, and to the East, and to the North, and to the South: and in thee, and in thy seed, shall all the families of the earth be blessed.14
19 And hee called the name of that place Beth-el: but the name of that citie was called Luz, at the first.19
21 So that I come againe to my fathers house in peace: then shall the LORD be my God.
