Genesis 25:31 bbe — And Jacob said, First of all give me your birthright.

Now Isaac's love was for Esau, because Esau's meat was greatly to his taste: but Rebekah had more love for Jacob.

And one day Jacob was cooking some soup when Esau came in from the fields in great need of food;

And Esau said to Jacob, Give me a full meal of that red soup, for I am overcome with need for food: for this reason he was named Edom.

And Esau said, Truly, I am at the point of death: what profit is the birthright to me?

And Jacob said, First of all give me your oath; and he gave him his oath, handing over his birthright to Jacob.

Then Jacob gave him bread and soup; and he took food and drink and went away, caring little for his birthright.
