另有约瑟在埃及所生的两个儿子，雅各家先后来到埃及的总共有七十人。

我要在那里供应你，免得你和你的家人，以及一切属于你的，都陷入穷困，因为还会有五年的饥荒。”’

神在你们之前派遣了我，为要在地上给你们存留余种，并要大施解救，使你们得以存活。

你们手中要拿上双倍的银子，亲手带回那归还在你们袋子口的银子，那或许是个失误。

神藉着夜间的一个梦来到亚兰人拉班那里，对他说：“你要小心，不可与雅各说好说歹。”

我常常这样：白天受尽炎热，夜间受尽寒霜，不得合眼睡觉。

而要到我的本土本族去，为我的儿子以撒娶妻。”

于是以撒打发雅各前往巴旦-亚兰，到亚兰人彼土利的儿子拉班那里。拉班是雅各和以扫的母亲莉白加的哥哥。

以扫因父亲祝福了雅各，就怨恨雅各。以扫对自己说：“为父亲举哀的日子临近了，之后我就要杀死弟弟雅各。”
