创25:22and the children struggle together within her, and she saith, 'If it is right -- why am I thus?' and she goeth to seek Jehovah.

创25:23And Jehovah saith to her, 'Two nations are in thy womb, and two peoples from thy bowels are parted; and the one people than the other people is stronger; and the elder doth serve the younger.'

创25:24And her days to bear are fulfilled, and lo, twins are in her womb;

创25:25and the first cometh out all red as a hairy robe, and they call his name Esau;

创25:26and afterwards hath his brother come out, and his hand is taking hold on Esau's heel, and one calleth his name Jacob; and Isaac is a son of sixty years in her bearing them.

创25:27And the youths grew, and Esau is a man acquainted with hunting, a man of the field; and Jacob is a plain man, inhabiting tents;

创25:28and Isaac loveth Esau, for his hunting is in his mouth; and Rebekah is loving Jacob.

创25:29And Jacob boileth pottage, and Esau cometh in from the field, and he is weary;

创25:30and Esau saith unto Jacob, 'Let me eat, I pray thee, some of this red red thing, for I am weary;' therefore hath one called his name Edom Red;

创25:31and Jacob saith, 'Sell to-day thy birthright to me.'

创25:32And Esau saith, 'Lo, I am going to die, and what is this to me -- birthright?'

创25:33and Jacob saith, 'Swear to me to-day:' and he sweareth to him, and selleth his birthright to Jacob;

创25:34and Jacob hath given to Esau bread and pottage of lentiles, and he eateth, and drinketh, and riseth, and goeth; and Esau despiseth the birthright.

创26:1And there is a famine in the land, besides the first famine which was in the days of Abraham, and Isaac goeth unto Abimelech king of the Philistines, to Gerar.

创26:2And Jehovah appeareth unto him, and saith, 'Go not down towards Egypt, tabernacle in the land concerning which I speak unto thee,

创26:3sojourn in this land, and I am with thee, and bless thee, for to thee and to thy seed I give all these lands, and I have established the oath which I have sworn to Abraham thy father;

创26:4and I have multiplied thy seed as stars of the heavens, and I have given to thy seed all these lands; and blessed themselves in thy seed have all nations of the earth;

创26:5because that Abraham hath hearkened to My voice, and keepeth My charge, My commands, My statutes, and My laws.'

创26:6And Isaac dwelleth in Gerar;

创26:7and men of the place ask him of his wife, and he saith, 'She is my sister:' for he hath been afraid to say, 'My wife -- lest the men of the place kill me for Rebekah, for she is of good appearance.'
