27. Isaac said to them, “Why have you come to me, since you hate me, and have sent me away from you?”

28. They said, “We saw plainly that the Lord was with you. We said, ‘Let there now be an oath between us, even between us and you, and let’s make a covenant with you,

29. that you will do us no harm, as we have not touched you, and as we have done to you nothing but good, and have sent you away in peace.’ You are now the blessed of the Lord.”

30. He made them a feast, and they ate and drank.

31. They rose up some time in the morning, and swore an oath to one another. Isaac sent them away, and they departed from him in peace.
