28. And Isaac loved Esau, because he ate of his venison: but Rebekah loved Jacob.
29. And Jacob boiled 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 to me this day thy birth-right.
32. And Esau said, Behold, I am at the point to die: and what profit shall this birth-right bring to me?
33. And Jacob said, Swear to me this day; and he swore to him: and he sold his birth-right to Jacob.
34. Then Jacob gave Esau bread and pottage of lentiles; and he ate and drank, and rose and went his way: thus Esau despised his birth-right.
