of Abraham’s
son
Isaac. Abraham became
the
father
of

And

of Isaac ,
Abraham's
son
. Abraham begat
Isaac .
and Isaac was forty years old when he married
Rebekah, the daughter of Bethuel the Aramean
from
Paddan-aram and
the sister of Laban the Aramean
.
And Isaac was forty years old when he took
Rebekah, the daughter of Bethuel the Syrian
of
Paddan-aram ,
the sister of Laban the Syrian,
to
be
his
wife
.
Later,
Isaac prayed
to
the
LORD
on
behalf
of
his wife, because she was barren. And the
LORD
heard
his
prayer
, and his wife Rebekah
conceived.
And
Isaac entreated
Jehovah
for
his wife, because she was barren. And Jehovah
was
entreated
of
him
, and Rebekah
his wife conceived.
But
the children inside
her
struggled with
each
other,
and she said, “Why
is
this
happening
to
me?”
So Rebekah
went to inquire of the
LORD,
And
the children struggled together
within
her.
And she said, If
it
be
so ,
wherefore
do
I
live?
And
she
went to inquire of Jehovah.
and He
declared
to
her :
“
Two nations are in your
womb, and two peoples from
within
you
will
be separated ;
one people will
be stronger than the other ,
and the older
will
serve the younger. ”
And Jehovah
said
unto
her ,
Two nations are in thy
womb, And two peoples shall
be separated from
thy
bowels.
And
the
one people shall
be stronger than the other people.
And the elder
shall
serve the younger.
When her time
came
to give
birth
, there were indeed
twins in her womb.
And
when her days
to be
delivered
were
fulfilled
, behold,
there were twins in her womb.
The first one
came out
red, covered
with
hair
like a fur
coat;
so
they named
him
Esau.
And
the first came forth
red, all
over
like a hairy
garment.
And
they called
his
name
Esau.
After this,
his brother came
out
grasping
Esau’s
heel ;
so
he
was named
Jacob. And Isaac was sixty
years old when the
twins
were
born
.
And
after that
came
forth
his brother ,
and
his
hand
had
hold
on
Esau's
heel .
And
his
name
was called
Jacob. And Isaac was threescore
years old when she
bare
them
.
When
the boys grew up,
Esau became
a skillful
hunter, a man of the field ,
while
Jacob was a quiet man who
stayed
at
home
.
And
the boys grew .
And
Esau was
a skilful
hunter, a man of the field .
And
Jacob was a quiet man ,
dwelling
in
tents
.
Because
Isaac had
a
taste
for
wild
game,
he
loved Esau ;
but
Rebekah loved Jacob.
Now
Isaac loved Esau ,
because
he
did
eat
of
his
venison.
And
Rebekah loved Jacob.
One
day,
while
Jacob was
cooking
some
stew,
Esau came in from the field and was famished
.
And
Jacob boiled
pottage.
And
Esau came in from the field ,
and he
was faint
.
He
said to Jacob, “Let
me eat
some
of
that red stew,
for I am famished
. ”
(That
is
why
he
was also
called Edom. )
And
Esau
said to Jacob, Feed
me ,
I
pray
thee,
with
that same
red `pottage'.
For I am faint
. Therefore
was his
name
called Edom.
“First
sell me your
birthright ,”
Jacob
replied
.
And
Jacob
said,
Sell me first
thy
birthright.
“Look,”
said
Esau, “
I am about to die ,
so
what good
is
a
birthright to me? ”
And
Esau said
, Behold,
I am about to die .
And
what profit
shall
the
birthright do
to me?
“
Swear to me first ,”
Jacob
said
. So
Esau
swore
to
Jacob
and sold
him the
birthright.
And
Jacob
said,
Swear to me first. And he
sware
unto
him .
And
he
sold
his
birthright unto
Jacob
.
Then
Jacob gave some
bread and lentil
stew
to
Esau,
who
ate
and drank
and then
got
up and went away
. Thus
Esau despised his birthright.
And
Jacob gave Esau
bread and pottage
of
lentils.
And he
did
eat
and drink,
and
rose
up ,
and went his
way
. So
Esau despised his birthright.
