Esau Marries a Canaanite Woman
6 Esau noticed that after Isaac had blessed Jacob as he was sending him off to Paddan-aram[a] to marry a wife from there, he had instructed Jacob,[b] “Don’t marry a Canaanite woman.” 7 After Jacob had obeyed his father and mother’s instructions to set out for Paddan-aram,[c] 8 Esau realized[d] that Canaan women didn’t please his father Isaac, 9 so he went to Abraham’s son Ishmael and married Ishmael’s daughter Mahalath, who was the sister of Nebaioth.
