Genesis 25:27-34 - Esau Sells His Birthright

²⁷ And the youths grew, and Esau is a man acquainted with hunting, a man of the field; and Jacob is a plain man, inhabiting tents; ²⁸ and Isaac loveth Esau, for his hunting is in his mouth; and Rebekah is loving Jacob.

²⁹ And Jacob boileth pottage, and Esau cometh in from the field, and he is weary; ³⁰ and Esau saith unto Jacob, 'Let me eat, I pray thee, some of this red red thing, for I am weary;' therefore hath one called his name Edom Red;

³¹ and Jacob saith, 'Sell to-day thy birthright to me.'

³² And Esau saith, 'Lo, I am going to die, and what is this to me -- birthright?'

³³ and Jacob saith, 'Swear to me to-day:' and he sweareth to him, and selleth his birthright to Jacob; ³⁴ and Jacob hath given to Esau bread and pottage of lentiles, and he eateth, and drinketh, and riseth, and goeth; and Esau despiseth the birthright.
