Genesis 28:6-9
1599 Geneva Bible
6 ¶ When Esau saw that Isaac had blessed Jacob, and sent him to Padan Aram, to fetch him a wife thence, and given him a charge when he blessed him, saying, Thou shalt not take a wife of the daughters of Canaan,
7 And that Jacob had obeyed his father and his mother, and was gone to Padan Aram:
8 Also Esau seeing that the daughters of Canaan displeased Isaac his father,
9 Then went Esau to Ishmael, and took [a]unto the wives which he had, Mahalath the daughter of [b]Ishmael Abraham’s son, the sister of Nebajoth, to be his wife.
