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

And the LORD 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.

24 Hottelah camo khenae tueng a pha toteh, camo im dawk ca samphei e ao.

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

And the first came forth ruddy, all over like a hairy mantle; and they called his name Esau.

And 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 bore them.

27 Camo roi a roung teh, Esaw teh moi ka ka thai poung e samram pou ka cet tami lah ao. Hateiteh, Jakop teh kâkamuete lah ao dawk im vah ao.

And the boys grew; and Esau was a cunning hunter, a man of the field; and Jacob was a quiet man, dwelling in tents.

28 Isak teh Esaw ni a thokhai e moi ouk a ca dawkvah, Esaw hah a lungpataw. Hateiteh, Rebekah ni teh Jakop hah a lungpataw.

Now Isaac loved Esau, because he did eat of his venison; and Rebekah loved Jacob.

29 Jakop ni rawca a thawng teh, Esaw teh kahrawng hoi a tho nah a vonhlam ni a khaw teh ngawt a tawn dawkvah,

And Jacob sod pottage; and Esau came in from the field, and he was faint.

And Esau said to Jacob: 'Let me swallow, I pray thee, some of this red, red pottage; for I am faint.' Therefore was his name called Edom.

31 Hateiteh, Jakop ni camin coungnae hah hmaloe lah na ran sak telah atipouh.

And Jacob said: 'Sell me first thy birthright.'

32 Esaw ni khenhaw! kai teh meimei ka due toe, camin coungnae teh kai hanlah bangmaw cungkei han telah ati.

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

33 Jakop ni, kai koevah hmaloe thoekâbo ei, telah atipouh. Jakop koe thoe a kâbo teh a camin coungnae hah a yo.

And Jacob said: 'Swear to me first'; and he swore unto him; and he sold his birthright unto Jacob.

34 Jakop ni Esaw teh vaiyei hoi rawca a thawng e hah a poe. Hottelah, a canei hnukkhu vah a tâco teh a cei. Hot patetlah Esaw ni camin coungnae hah banglahai noutna hoeh.

And 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.
