20 and Isaac was forty years old when he took Rebekah to wife, the daughter of Bethuel, the Aramean of Padanaram, the sister to Laban the Aramean.

20 and Isaac was forty years old when he married Rebekah daughter of Bethuel the Aramean from Paddan Aram and sister of Laban the Aramean.

21 And Isaac prayed unto the LORD for his wife because she was barren; and the LORD accepted him, and Rebekah his wife conceived.

21 Isaac prayed to the LORD on behalf of his wife, because she was childless. The LORD answered his prayer, and his wife Rebekah became pregnant.

22 And the sons struggled together within her; and she said, If this is so, why should I live? And she went to enquire of the LORD.

22 The babies jostled each other within her, and she said, “Why is this happening to me?” So she went to inquire of the LORD.

23 And the LORD said unto her, Two nations are in thy womb, and two manner of 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.

23 The LORD said to her, “Two nations are in your womb, and two peoples from within you will be separated; one people will be stronger than the other, and the older will serve the younger.”

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

24 When the time came for her to give birth, there were twin boys in her womb.

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

25 The first to come out was red, and his whole body was like a hairy garment; so they named him Esau.

26 And afterwards his brother came out with Esau’s heel grasped in his hand; and his name was called Jacob. And Isaac was sixty years old when Rebekah gave birth to them.

26 After this, his brother came out, with his hand grasping Esau’s heel; so he was named Jacob. Isaac was sixty years old when Rebekah gave birth to them.

27 And the boys grew, and Esau was a cunning hunter, a man of the field; and Jacob was an upright man, remaining in the tents.

27 The boys grew up, and Esau became a skillful hunter, a man of the open country, while Jacob was content to stay at home among the tents.

28 And Isaac loved Esau because he ate of his venison; but Rebekah loved Jacob.

28 Isaac, who had a taste for wild game, loved Esau, but Rebekah loved Jacob.

29 And Jacob boiled pottage; and Esau came from the field, and he was faint;

29 Once when Jacob was cooking some stew, Esau came in from the open country, famished.

30 and Esau said to Jacob, Give me to eat, I pray thee, of that red pottage; for I am faint. Therefore was his name called Edom.

30 He said to Jacob, “Quick, let me have some of that red stew! I’m famished!” (That is why he was also called Edom. )

31 And Jacob said, Sell me this day thy birthright.

31 Jacob replied, “First sell me your birthright.”

32 And Esau said, Behold, I am at the point to die; and what profit shall this birthright do to me?

32 “Look, I am about to die,” Esau said. “What good is the birthright to me?”

33 And Jacob said, Swear to me this day; and he swore unto him and he sold his birthright unto Jacob.

33 But Jacob said, “Swear to me first.” So he swore an oath to him, selling his birthright to Jacob.

34 Then Jacob gave Esau of the bread and of the pottage of lentils; and he ate and drank, and rose up, and went away. Thus Esau despised his birthright.

34 Then Jacob gave Esau some bread and some lentil stew. He ate and drank, and then got up and left. So Esau despised his birthright.
