אם תעשה עמנו רע כאשר לא נגענוך וכאשר עשינו עמך רק טוב ונשלחך בשלום עתה אתה ברוך יהוה
Gen. 26:29 [Masoretic Text]
אִם־תַּעֲשֵׂ֨ה עִמָּ֜נוּ רָעָ֗ה כַּאֲשֶׁר֙ לֹ֣א נְגַֽעֲנ֔וּךָ וְכַאֲשֶׁ֨ר עָשִׂ֤ינוּ עִמְּךָ֙ רַק־טֹ֔וב וַנְּשַׁלֵּֽחֲךָ֖ בְּשָׁלֹ֑ום אַתָּ֥ה עַתָּ֖ה בְּר֥וּךְ יְהוָֽה׃
If you will not do evil to us, just as we have not touched you, and just as we have done only good with you and have sent you away in peace—you now are blessed of YHWH.”
