Genesis 25:29-34

Lexham English Bible

²⁹ Once^[a] Jacob cooked a thick stew, and Esau came in from the field, and he was exhausted. ³⁰ And Esau said to Jacob, “Give me some of that red stuff^[b] to gulp down, for I am exhausted!” (Therefore his name was called Edom). ³¹ Then Jacob said, “Sell me your birthright first.”^{[c] 32} And Esau said, “Look, I am going to die; now what is this birthright to me?” ³³ Then Jacob said, “Swear to me first.”^[d] And he swore to him, and sold his birthright to Jacob. ³⁴ Then Jacob gave Esau bread, and thick lentil stew, and he ate and drank. Then he got up and went away. So Esau despised his birthright.
