29 Iacob sodde pottage, and Esau came from the fielde, and was fayntie:

30 And Esau sayd to Iacob: feede me I pray thee, with that same red pottage, for I am fayntie: and therfore was his name called Edom.

31 And Iacob saide: sell me this day thy byrthryght.

32 Esau sayde: lo, I am at the poynt to dye, and what profite shall this byrthryght do me?

33 Iacob aunswered: sweare to me then this day. And he sware to him, & solde his byrthryght vnto Iacob.
