Esau Sells his Birthright
29 | And Jacob sod pottage: and Esau came from the field, and he was faint: |
30 | And Esau said to Jacob, Feed me, I pray thee, with that same red pottage; for I am faint: therefore was his name called Edom. |
31 | And Jacob said, Sell me this day thy birthright. |
32 | And Esau said, Behold, I am at the point to die: and what profit shall this birthright do to me? |
33 | And Jacob said, Swear to me this day; and he swore unto him: and he sold his birthright unto Jacob. |
34 | Then Jacob gave Esau bread and pottage of lentils; and he did eat and drink, and rose up, and went his way: thus Esau despised his birthright. |
