Genesis 27:41-45

New International Version

⁴¹ Esau held a grudge^(A) against Jacob^(B) because of the blessing his father had given him. He said to himself, “The days of mourning^(C) for my father are near; then I will kill^(D) my brother Jacob.”^(E)

⁴² When Rebekah was told what her older son Esau^(F) had said, she sent for her younger son Jacob and said to him, “Your brother Esau is planning to avenge himself by killing you.^{(G) 43} Now then, my son, do what I say:^(H) Flee at once to my brother Laban^(I) in Harran.^{(J) 44} Stay with him for a while^(K) until your brother’s fury subsides. ⁴⁵ When your brother is no longer angry with you and forgets what you did to him,^(L) I’ll send word for you to come back from there.^(M) Why should I lose both of you in one day?”
