26. Isaac was threescore years old when the children were born unto him.
27. And when they were grown up, Esau became a skillful hunter, and a husbandman, but Jacob a plain man dwelt in tents.
28. Isaac loved Esau, because he ate of his hunting: and Rebecca loved Jacob.
29. And Jacob boiled Pottage: to whom Esau, coming faint out of the field,
30. Said: Give me of this red pottage, for I am exceeding faint. For which reason his name was called Edom.
31. And Jacob said to him: Sell me thy first birthright.
32. He answered: Lo I die, what will the first birthright avail me.
