Genesis 25:22-34

And the children
<01121>
struggled together
<07533> (8704)
within her
<07130>_;
and she said
<0559> (8799)_,
If [it be] so, why [am] I thus
<02088>_?
And she went
<03212> (8799)
to enquire
<01875> (8800)
of the LORD
<03068>_.
And the LORD
<03068>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto her, Two
<08147>
nations
<01471>
[are] in thy womb
<0990>_,
and two manner
<08147>
of people
<03816>
shall be separated
<06504> (8735)
from thy bowels
<04578>_;
and [the one] people
<03816>
shall be stronger
<0553> (8799)
than [the other] people
<03816>_;
and the elder
<07227>
shall serve
<05647> (8799)
the younger
<06810>_.
And when her days
<03117>
to be delivered
<03205> (8800)
were fulfilled
<04390> (8799)_,
behold, [there were] twins
<08380>
in her womb
<0990>_.
And the first
<07223>
came out
<03318> (8799)
red
<0132>_,
all over like an hairy
<08181>
garment
<0155>_;
and they called
<07121> (8799)
his name
<08034>
Esau
<06215>_.
And after
<0310>
that came
<03318> (0)
his brother
<0251>
out
<03318> (8804)_,
and his hand
<03027>
took hold
<0270> (8802)
on Esau's
<06215>
heel
<06119>_;
and his name
<08034>
was called
<07121> (8799)
Jacob
<03290>_:
and Isaac
<03327>
[was] threescore
<08346>
years
<08141>
old
<01121>
when she bare
<03205> (8800)
them.
And the boys
<05288>
grew
<01431> (8799)_:
and Esau
<06215>
was a cunning
<03045> (8802)
hunter
<06718>_,
a man
<0376>
of the field
<07704>_;
and Jacob
<03290>
[was] a plain
<08535>
man
<0376>_,
dwelling
<03427> (8802)
in tents
<0168>_.
And Isaac
<03327>
loved
<0157> (8799)
Esau
<06215>_,
because he did eat
<06310>
of [his] venison
<06718>_:
but Rebekah
<07259>
loved
<0157> (8802)
Jacob
<03290>_.
{he...: Heb. venison was in his mouth}
And Jacob
<03290>
sod
<02102> (8686)
pottage
<05138>_:
and Esau
<06215>
came
<0935> (8799)
from the field
<07704>_,
and he [was] faint
<05889>_:
And Esau
<06215>
said
<0559> (8799)
to Jacob
<03290>_,
Feed
<03938> (8685)
me, I pray thee, with
<04480>
that same
<0122>
red
<0122>
[pottage]; for I [am] faint
<05889>_:
therefore was his name
<08034>
called
<07121> (8804)
Edom
<0123>_.
{with...: Heb. with that red, with that red pottage} {Edom: that is Red}
And Jacob
<03290>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
Sell
<04376> (8798)
me this day
<03117>
thy birthright
<01062>_.
And Esau
<06215>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
Behold, I [am] at the point
<01980> (8802)
to die
<04191> (8800)_:
and what profit shall this birthright
<01062>
do to me? {at...: Heb. going to die}
And Jacob
<03290>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
Swear
<07650> (8734)
to me this day
<03117>_;
and he sware
<07650> (8735)
unto him: and he sold
<04376> (8799)
his birthright
<01062>
unto Jacob
<03290>_.
Then Jacob
<03290>
gave
<05414> (8804)
Esau
<06215>
bread
<03899>
and pottage
<05138>
of lentiles
<05742>_;
and he did eat
<0398> (8799)
and drink
<08354> (8799)_,
and rose up
<06965> (8799)_,
and went his way
<03212> (8799)_:
thus Esau
<06215>
despised
<0959> (8799)
[his] birthright
<01062>_.
