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.
