And the boys grew: and Esau was a skilful hunter, a man of the field; and Jacob was a {Or, harmless Hebrew: perfect.}quiet man, dwelling in tents.
Now Isaac loved Esau, because he did eat of his venison: and Rebekah loved Jacob.
And Jacob boiled pottage: and Esau came in from the field, and he was faint:
and Esau said to Jacob, Feed me, I pray thee, with {Hebrew: the red pottage, this red pottage.}that same red pottage; for I am faint: therefore was his name called {That is, Red.}Edom.
And Jacob said, Sell me {Hebrew: to-day.}first thy birthright.
And Esau said, Behold, I am about to die: and what profit shall the birthright do to me?
And Jacob said, Swear to me {Hebrew: to-day.}first; and he sware unto him: and he sold his birthright unto Jacob.
And Jacob gave Esau bread and pottage of lentils; and he did eat and drink, and rose up, and went his way: so Esau despised his birthright.
