The children struggled together within her. She said, “If it is like this, why do I live?” She went to inquire of Yahweh.
23 Yehowa gblɔ nɛ be, “Viŋutsu eve siwo le dɔ me na wò la azu dukɔ eve siwo aʋli ho kple wo nɔewo. Ɖeka asesẽ wu evelia, eye tsitsitɔ azu subɔla na ɖevitɔ.”
Yahweh said to her, “Two nations are in your womb. Two peoples will be separated from your body. The one people will be stronger than the other people. The elder will serve the younger.”
24 Le nyateƒe me la, edzi evenɔviwo.
When her days to be delivered were fulfilled, behold, there were twins in her womb.
25 Ɖa dzĩ nɔ gbãtɔ ŋu abe lãfuwue wòdo ene! Ale woyɔe be “Esau.”
The first came out red all over, like a hairy garment. They named him Esau.

After that, his brother came out, and his hand had hold on Esau’s heel. He was named Jacob. Isaac was sixty years old when she bore them.
27 Esi ɖeviawo tsi la, Esau zu adela xɔŋkɔ aɖe, ke Yakob ya zu ame fafa aɖe si lɔ̃a aƒemenɔnɔ.
The boys grew. Esau was a skillful hunter, a man of the field. Jacob was a quiet man, living in tents.
28 Ɖeviawo dometɔ si Isak lɔ̃ wu lae nye Esau, le adelã si wòtsɔna vaa aƒe mee ta; ke esi Rebeka lɔ̃ wu lae nye Yakob.
Now Isaac loved Esau, because he ate his venison. Rebekah loved Jacob.
29 Gbe ɖeka la, Yakob nɔ detsi ƒom esime Esau gbɔ tso adegbe.
Jacob boiled stew. Esau came in from the field, and he was famished.
30 Esau bia Yakob be, “Nɔvinye, dɔ le wuyem vevie. Na wò akplẽdzĩ aɖem maɖu.” Esia ta wona megbeŋkɔe be “Edom” si gɔmee nye “Akplẽdzĩ.”
Esau said to Jacob, “Please feed me with some of that red stew, for I am famished.” Therefore his name was called Edom.
31 Yakob ɖo eŋu be, “Enyo, ekema tsɔ wò ŋgɔgbevinyenye nam, eye nàxɔ akplẽdzĩ la.”
Jacob said, “First, sell me your birthright.”
32 Esau gblɔ be, “Ne dɔ le ame aɖe wum wòɖo kudo nu ɖe, viɖe kae gale eƒe ŋgɔgbevinyenye ŋu nɛ?”
Esau said, “Behold, I am about to die. What good is the birthright to me?”
33 Yakob xɔ edzi gblɔ be, “Enyo, ekema ka atam na Mawu be ŋgɔgbevinyenye la zu tɔnye.” Esau ka atam, eye wòto esia me dzra eƒe ŋgɔgbevinyenye la na nɔvia suetɔ,
Jacob said, “Swear to me first.” He swore to him. He sold his birthright to Jacob.
34 eye Yakob tsɔ abolo, ayi kple dedetsi na Esau wòɖu, no tsi ɖe edzi, eye wòyi eƒe wɔnawo dzi. Ke Esau metsɔ ɖeke le eme be yeɖe asi le yeƒe ŋgɔgbevinyenye ŋuti nenema o.
Jacob gave Esau bread and lentil stew. He ate and drank, rose up, and went his way. So Esau despised his birthright.
