Men hans far vilde ikke det, og han sa: Jeg vet det, min sønn, jeg vet det. Han skal og bli et folk, han skal og bli stor; men enda skal hans yngre bror bli større enn han, og hans ætt skal bli en mengde folkeslag.
And his father refused, and said, I know it, my son, I know it: he also shall become a people, and he also shall be great: but truly his younger brother shall be greater than he, and his seed shall become a multitude of nations.
