27 And the boys grew up. And Esau was a skilled hunter, a man of the field, but Jacob was a peaceful man, living in tents.
28 And Isaac loved Esau because he could eat of his game, but Rebekah loved Jacob.
29 Once 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 to gulp down, for I am exhausted!” (Therefore his name was called Edom).
31 Then Jacob said, “Sell me your birthright first.”
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.” And he swore to him, and sold his birthright to Jacob.
