Genesis 28

6 And Esau saw how Isaac had blessed Jacob and sent him away to Padanaram, to take a wife from there for himself, and that as he blessed him, he gave him a charge, saying, Thou shalt not take a wife of the daughters of Canaan, 7 and that Jacob had hearkened unto his father and his mother and had gone to Padanaram; 8 and Esau, seeing that the daughters of Canaan did not please Isaac his father, 9 Esau went unto Ishmael and took unto the wives which he had, Mahalath, the daughter of Ishmael, Abraham’s son, the sister of Nebajoth, to be his wife.
