   [bbe] Isaac made prayer to the Lord for his wife because she had no children; and the Lord gave ear to his prayer, and Rebekah became with child.
25:22[kjv] And the children struggled together within her; and she said, If it be so, why am I thus? And she went to enquire of the LORD.
   [bbe] And the children were fighting together inside her, and she said, If it is to be so, why am I like this? So she went to put her question to the Lord.
25:23[kjv] And the LORD said unto her, Two nations are in thy womb, and two manner of people shall be separated from thy bowels; and the one people shall be stronger than the other people; and the elder shall serve the younger.
   [bbe] And the Lord said to her, Two nations are in your body, and two peoples will come to birth from you: the one will be stronger than the other, and the older will be the servant of the younger.
25:24[kjv] And when her days to be delivered were fulfilled, behold, there were twins in her womb.
   [bbe] And when the time came for her to give birth, there were two children in her body.
25:25[kjv] And the first came out red, all over like an hairy garment; and they called his name Esau.
   [bbe] And the first came out red from head to foot like a robe of hair, and they gave him the name of Esau.
25:26[kjv] And after that came his brother out, and his hand took hold on Esau's heel; and his name was called Jacob: and Isaac was threescore years old when she bare them.
   [bbe] And after him, his brother came out, gripping Esau's foot; and he was named Jacob: Isaac was sixty years old when she gave birth to them.
25:27[kjv] And the boys grew: and Esau was a cunning hunter, a man of the field; and Jacob was a plain man, dwelling in tents.
   [bbe] And the boys came to full growth; and Esau became a man of the open country, an expert bowman; but Jacob was a quiet man, living in tents.
25:28[kjv] And Isaac loved Esau, because he did eat of his venison: but Rebekah loved Jacob.
   [bbe] Now Isaac's love was for Esau, because Esau's meat was greatly to his taste: but Rebekah had more love for Jacob.
25:29[kjv] And Jacob sod pottage: and Esau came from the field, and he was faint:
   [bbe] And one day Jacob was cooking some soup when Esau came in from the fields in great need of food;
25:30[kjv] And Esau said to Jacob, Feed me, I pray thee, with that same red pottage; for I am faint: therefore was his name called Edom.
   [bbe] 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.
25:31[kjv] And Jacob said, Sell me this day thy birthright.
   [bbe] And Jacob said, First of all give me your birthright.
25:32[kjv] And Esau said, Behold, I am at the point to die: and what profit shall this birthright do to me?
   [bbe] And Esau said, Truly, I am at the point of death: what profit is the birthright to me?
25:33[kjv] And Jacob said, Swear to me this day; and he sware unto him: and he sold his birthright unto Jacob.
   [bbe] And Jacob said, First of all give me your oath; and he gave him his oath, handing over his birthright to Jacob.
25:34[kjv] Then Jacob gave Esau bread and pottage of lentiles; and he did eat and drink, and rose up, and went his way: thus Esau despised his birthright.
   [bbe] Then Jacob gave him bread and soup; and he took food and drink and went away, caring little for his birthright.
