Genesis 27:45-46
The Message
42-45 When these words of her older son Esau were reported to Rebekah, she called her younger son Jacob and said, “Your brother Esau is plotting vengeance against you. He’s going to kill you. Son, listen to me. Get out of here. Run for your life to Haran, to my brother Laban. Live with him for a while until your brother cools down, until his anger subsides and he forgets what you did to him. I’ll then send for you and bring you back. Why should I lose both of you the same day?”
46 Rebekah spoke to Isaac, “I’m sick to death of these Hittite women. If Jacob also marries a native Hittite woman, why live?”

Genesis 27:45-46
New International Version
45 When your brother is no longer angry with you and forgets what you did to him,(A) I’ll send word for you to come back from there.(B) Why should I lose both of you in one day?”
46 Then Rebekah said to Isaac, “I’m disgusted with living because of these Hittite(C) women. If Jacob takes a wife from among the women of this land,(D) from Hittite women like these, my life will not be worth living.”(E)
