and sayd to Iacob: let me syppe of yt redde potage for I am fayntie. And therfore was his name called Edom.

31 and Jacob says, “Sell your birthright to me today.”

And Iacob sayde: sell me this daye thy byrthrighte.

32 And Esau says, “Behold, I am going to die, and what is this to me—a birthright?”

And Esau answered: Loo I am at the poynte to dye and what profit shall this byrthrighte do me?

33 And Jacob says, “Swear to me today”: and he swears to him, and sells his birthright to Jacob;

And Iacob sayde swere to me then this daye. And he swore to him and sold his byrthrighte vnto Iacob.
