¹⁵ These were the sons Leah bore to Jacob in Paddan Aram,^[a](A) besides his daughter Dinah.^(B) These sons and daughters of his were thirty-three in all.

⁴⁶ Then Rebekah said to Isaac, “I’m disgusted with living because of these Hittite^(A) women. If Jacob takes a wife from among the women of this land,^(B) from Hittite women like these, my life will not be worth living.”^(C)
