And Abram said to the king of Sodom, I will stretch out my hand to the Lord, the Most High God, who made the heaven and the earth,

and I will make you swear by the Lord, the God of heaven, and the God of the earth, that you take not a wife for my son Isaac from the daughters of the Canaanites, with whom I dwell, in the midst of them.

He also swore to her, "Whatever you may ask me, I will give you, up to half of my kingdom."

For men indeed swear by the greater, and the oath for confirmation [is] an end of every dispute to them.

And he said, Rightly was his name called Jacob, for behold, this second time has he supplanted me; he has both taken my birthright, and now he has taken my blessing! And Esau said to his father, Have you not a blessing left for me, father?

And Esau took his wives, and his sons, and his daughters, and all the persons of his house, and all his possessions, and all his cattle, and all that he had gotten, and all things whatsoever that he had acquired in the land of Canaan; and Esau went forth from the land of Canaan, from the face of his brother Jacob.

For their possessions were too great for them to dwell together; and the land of their sojourning could not bear them, because of the abundance of their possessions.

lest there be any fornicator or profane [person] like Esau, who in exchange for one meal gave up his birthright.
