Genesis 27:45-46
Amplified Bible, Classic Edition
45 When your brother’s anger is diverted from you, he will forget [the wrong] that you have done him. Then [a]I will send and bring you back from there. Why should I be deprived of both of you in one day?
46 Then Rebekah said to Isaac, I am weary of my life because of the daughters of Heth [these wives of Esau]! If Jacob takes a wife of the daughters of Heth such as these Hittite girls around here, what good will my life be to me?
