Midras Kejadian 27:46: Bereshit Rabbah

וַתֹּ֤אמֶר רִבְקָה֙ אֶל־יִצְחָ֔ק קַ֣צְתִּי בְחַיַּ֔י מִפְּנֵ֖י בְּנ֣וֹת חֵ֑ת אִם־לֹקֵ֣חַ יַ֠עֲקֹב אִשָּׁ֨ה מִבְּנֽוֹת־חֵ֤ת כָּאֵ֙לֶּה֙ מִבְּנ֣וֹת הָאָ֔רֶץ לָ֥מָּה לִּ֖י חַיִּֽים׃

Lalu Ribka berkata kepada Ishak, “Aku muak dengan hidupku karena anak-anak perempuan Het itu. Jika Yakub mengambil seorang istri dari antara anak-anak perempuan Het seperti mereka ini, dari antara anak-anak perempuan negeri ini, untuk apa lagi aku hidup?”

Bereshit Rabbah

“Rebecca said to Isaac: I loathe my life due to the daughters of Ḥet. If Jacob takes a wife from the daughters of Ḥet, like these, from the daughters of the land, why do I need life?” (Genesis 27:46).
“Rebecca said to Isaac: I loathe my life [due to the daughters of Ḥet]”21Esau’s wives. See Genesis 26:34–35. – Rav Huna said: She began collecting mucus from her nose and casting it down. “If Jacob takes…from the daughters of Ḥet, like these” – she was striking this one, then that one, and that one, then this one.22Esau’s wives were standing there.
