"He answered, “Lo, I am dying, what will the right of the firstborn provide for me?” "
— Genesis 25:32, Catholic Public Domain Version
“And Esau said, Behold, I am at the point to die: and what profit shall this birthright do to me?”
“And Esau said, Behold, I am about to die: and what profit shall the birthright do to me? ”
“Esau said, "Behold, I am about to die. What good is the birthright to me?"”
““Look,” said Esau,“I’m about to die! What use is the birthright to me?””
“He answered: Lo I die, what will the first birthright avail me?”
“And Esau said, Truly, I am at the point of death: what profit is the birthright to me?”
“And Esau said, Behold, I am at the point to die: and what profit shall this birthright do to me?”
Then Jacob boiled a small meal. Esau, when he had arrived weary from the field,
said to him, “Give me this red stew, for I am very tired.” For this reason, his name was called Edom.
Jacob said to him, “Sell me your right of the firstborn.”
He answered, “Lo, I am dying, what will the right of the firstborn provide for me?”
Jacob said, “So then, swear to me.” Esau swore to him, and he sold his right of the firstborn.
And so, taking bread and the food of lentils, he ate, and he drank, and he went away, giving little weight to having sold the right of the firstborn.
