24.Therefore when her time of deliuerāce was fulfilled, beholde, twinnes were in her wombe.
25.So he that came out firſt was red, and he was all ouer as a rough garment, and they called his name Eſáu.
26.* And afterwarde came his brother out, and his hand held Eſáu by the hele: therfore his name was called Iaakób. Now Izhák was thre ſcore yere olde when Rebekáh bare them.
27.And the boyes grewe, & Eſáu was a cunning hunter, & " liued in ye fields: but Iaakób was a " plaine man, and dwelt in tētes.
28.And Izhák loued Eſáu, for " veniſon was in his meat, but Rebekáh loued Iaakób.
29.Now Iaakób ſodde pottage, & Eſáu came from the field and was wearie:
30.Then Eſáu ſaid to Iaakób, " Let me eat, I pray thee, of ye pottage ſo red, for I am weary. Therefore was his name called Edóm.
31.And Iaakób ſaid, Sel me euen now thy birthright.
32.And Eſáu ſaid, Lo, I am almoſt dead, what is then this k birthright to me?
33.Iaakób then ſaid, Sweare to me euē now. And he ſware to him, * & l ſolde his birthright vnto Iaakób.
34.Then Iaakób gaue Eſáu bread and pottage of lentiles: and he did eat and drinke and roſe vp, & went his way: So Eſáu cōtemned his birthright.
