Gen 25:19And these are the generations of Isaac, Abraham’s son: Abraham begat Isaac:

Gen 25:20

Gen 25:20and 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.

Gen 25:22

Gen 25:22And the children struggled together within her; and she said, If it be so, wherefore do I live? And she went to inquire of Jehovah.

Gen 25:23

Gen 25:23And 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.

Gen 25:24

Gen 25:24And when her days to be delivered were fulfilled, behold, there were twins in her womb.

Gen 25:25

Gen 25:25And the first came forth red, all over like a hairy garment; and they called his name Esau.

Gen 25:26

Gen 25:26And 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.

Gen 25:27

Gen 25:27And the boys grew: and Esau was a skilful hunter, a man of the field; and Jacob was a quiet man, dwelling in tents.

Gen 25:28

Gen 25:28Now Isaac loved Esau, because he did eat of his venison: and Rebekah loved Jacob.

(Heb 12:16 )

Gen 25:29

Gen 25:29And Jacob boiled pottage: and Esau came in from the field, and he was faint:

Gen 25:30

Gen 25:30and Esau said to Jacob, Feed me, I pray thee, with that same red pottage; for I am faint: therefore was his name called Edom.

Gen 25:31

Gen 25:31And Jacob said, Sell me first thy birthright.

Gen 25:32

Gen 25:32And Esau said, Behold, I am about to die: and what profit shall the birthright do to me?

Gen 25:33

Gen 25:33And Jacob said, Swear to me first; and he sware unto him: and he sold his birthright unto Jacob.

Gen 25:34

Gen 25:34And 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.
