29 And Jacob cooked pottage, and behold, his brother Esau came in from the field, and he was very hungry; 30 And Esau said to Jacob, Give me some of that pottage, for I am famished; that is why he was called Edom. 31 And Jacob said, Sell me this day your birthright. 32 And Esau said, Behold, I am at the point of death; and what profit shall a birthright be to me? 33 And Jacob said to him, Swear to me this day; and he swore to him; and he sold his birthright to Jacob. 34 Then Jacob gave Esau bread and pottage; and he ate, and drank, and rose up and went his way; thus Esau despised his birthright.
