- thy brother:
- "And Jacobª sentª° messengersª before¹ him² to¹ Esauª his brotherª unto the landª of Seir,ª the countryª of Edom.ª ... And he commandedª° them, saying,ª° Thus¹ shall ye speakª° unto my lordª Esau;ª Thy servantª Jacobª saithª° thus,¹ I have sojournedª° with¹ Laban,ª and stayed thereª° until¹ now:¹" {Gen 32:3-4} + "And commandª° thou the people,ª saying,ª° Ye¹ [are] to pass²° through¹ the coastª of your brethrenª the childrenª of Esau,ª which dwellª° in Seir;ª and they shall be afraidª° of¹ you: take ye good² heed²° unto yourselves therefore:¹¹ ... This¹ dayª will I beginª° to putª° the dreadª of thee and the fearª of thee upon¹ the nationsª² [that are] under¹ the whole¹ heaven,ª who¹ shall hearª° reportª of thee, and shall tremble,ª° and be in anguishª° because¹¹ of thee.²" {Deu 2:4-25} + "Thou shalt not¹ abhorª° an Edomite;ª for¹ he¹ [is] thy brother:ª thou shalt not¹ abhorª° an Egyptian;ª because¹ thou wast¹ a strangerª in his land.ª" {Deu 23:7} + "For [thy] violenceª¹ against thy brotherª Jacobª shameª shall coverª° thee, and thou shalt be cut offª° for ever.ª ... But thou shouldest not¹ have lookedª° on the dayª of thy brotherª in the dayª that he became a stranger;²¹ neither¹ shouldest thou have rejoicedª° over the childrenª of Judahª in the dayª of their destruction;ª° neither¹ shouldest thou have spoken² proudlyª°¹ in the dayª of distress.ª" {Oba 1:10-12} + "I have lovedª° you, saith²°¹ the LORD.ª Yet ye say,ª° Wherein¹ hast thou lovedª° us? [Was] not¹ Esauª Jacob'sª brother?ª saith²°¹ the LORD:ª yet I lovedª°¹ Jacob,ª" {Mal 1:2}
