(C)Then I took your father Abraham from the other side of [b]the River, led him throughout all the land of Canaan, and multiplied his [c]descendants and (D)gave him Isaac. To Isaac I gave (E)Jacob and Esau. To (F)Esau I gave the mountains of Seir to possess, (G)but Jacob and his children went down to Egypt.
