Yehowa hyɛɛ Yakob bɔ sɛ ɔbɛbɔ ne ho ban sɛnea ɔbɔɔ Abraham ne Isak ho ban no. Yakob kɔtenaa baabi a yɛfrɛ hɔ Haran. Ɔwaree wɔ hɔ, onyaa abusua kɛse, na onyaa sika pii.

Akyiri yi, Yehowa ka kyerɛɛ Yakob sɛ: ‘San kɔ wo kurom.’ Ná ɔkwan no ware paa, nanso Yakob ne n’abusua sii kwan so. Bere a wɔnam kwan so no, nkurɔfo behyiaa Yakob, na wɔka kyerɛɛ no sɛ: ‘Wo nua Esau reba, na mmarima 400 ka ne ho!’ Ná Yakob suro sɛ ne nua no bɛyɛ ɔne n’abusua no bɔne. Enti ɔbɔɔ Yehowa mpae sɛ: ‘Mesrɛ wo gye me fi me nua Esau nsam.’ Da a edi hɔ no, Yakob soma ma wɔde nguan, mpɔnkye, anantwi, yoma (camel), ne mfurum (donkey) bebree kɔkyɛɛ Esau.
