19 And, these, are the generations of Isaac, son of Abraham, —Abraham, begat Isaac;
And these [are] [the] accounts of Isaac [the] son of Abraham Abraham he fathered Isaac.
20 and it came to pass that, Isaac, was forty years old, when he took Rebekah daughter of Bethuel the Syrian, of the Plain of Syria, —sister of Laban the Syrian. to himself to wife.
And he was Isaac a son of forty year[s] when took he Rebekah [the] daughter of Bethuel the Aramean from Paddan Aram [the] sister of Laban the Aramean for himself to a wife.

25 And the first came forth red, all over, as a mantle of hair, —so they called his name, Esau,
And he came out the first red all of him [was] like a cloak of hair and they called name his Esau.
26 And, after that, came forth his brother with his hand fast hold of the heel of Esau, so they called his name Jacob—Now, Isaac, was sixty years old when she bare them,
And after thus he came out brother his and hand his [was] holding on [the] heel of Esau and he called name his Jacob and Isaac [was] a son of sixty year[s] when fathered them.
27 And when the youths grew up, it came to pass that Esau was a man skilled in game a man of the field, —but, Jacob, was a ready man, dwelling in tents.
And they grew up the lads and he was Esau a man [who] knew hunting a man of [the] open country and Jacob [was] a man quiet [who] dwelt tents.

32 And Esau said, Here am I, on the point of dying, —wherefore, then, should I, have, a birthright?
And he said Esau here! I [am] going to die and for what? this to me [is] a birthright.
33 And Jacob said, Come swear to me just now! And he sware to him, —and sold his birthright to Jacob.
And he said Jacob swear! to me as the day and he swore to him and he sold birthright his to Jacob.
