²⁹ Now Jacob cooked some stew, and when Esau came in from the open fields, he was famished. ³⁰ So Esau said to Jacob, "Feed me some of the red stuff yes, this red stuff because I'm starving!" (That is why he was also called Edom.) ³¹ But Jacob replied, "First sell me your birthright." ³² "Look," said Esau, "I'm about to die! What use is the birthright to me?" ³³ But Jacob said, "Swear an oath to me now." So Esau swore an oath to him and sold his birthright to Jacob. ³⁴ Then Jacob gave Esau some bread and lentil stew; Esau ate and drank, then got up and went out. So Esau despised his birthright.
