Genesis 25:26-34

26 sexagenarius erat Isaac quando nati sunt parvuli

27 quibus adultis factus est Esau vir gnarus venandi et homo agricola Iacob autem vir simplex habitabat in tabernaculis

28 Isaac amabat Esau eo quod de venationibus illius vesceretur et Rebecca diligebat Iacob

29 coxit autem Iacob pulmentum ad quem cum venisset Esau de agro lassus

30 ait da mihi de coctione hac rufa quia oppido lassus sum quam ob causam vocatum est nomen eius Edom

31 cui dixit Iacob vende mihi primogenita tua

32 ille respondit en morior quid mihi proderunt primogenita

33 ait Iacob iura ergo mihi iuravit Esau et vendidit primogenita

34 et sic accepto pane et lentis edulio comedit et bibit et abiit parvipendens quod primogenita vendidisset
