30HeH6215 saidH559 toH413 JacobH3290, “Let me eatH3938H4994 some ofH4480 thatH2088 redH122 stew, forH3588 I amH595 famishedH5889.” (That is whyH5921H3651 he was also calledH7121H8034 EdomH123.1)

31“FirstH3117 sellH4376 me your birthrightH1062,” JacobH3290 repliedH559.

32“LookH2009,” saidH559 EsauH6215, “I amH595 about to dieH1980H4191, so what goodH4100H2088 is a birthrightH1062 to me?”

33“Swear to me firstH7650,” JacobH3290 saidH559.

So Esau sworeH7650 to Jacob and soldH4376 himH3290 the birthrightH1062. 34Then JacobH3290 gaveH5414 some breadH3899 and lentilH5742 stewH5138 to EsauH6215, who ateH398 and drankH8354 and then got upH6965 and went awayH1980. Thus EsauH6215 despisedH959 his birthrightH1062.
