6 filiis autem concubinarum largitus est munera, et separavit eos ab Isaac filio suo, dum adhuc ipse viveret, ad plagam orientalem.

These are the years of the life of Ishmael: one hundred thirty-seven years. He breathed his last and died, and was gathered to his people.

19 Hæ quoque sunt generationes Isaac filii Abraham: Abraham genuit Isaac:
These are the generations of Isaac, Abraham's son. Abraham became the father of Isaac.
20 qui cum quadraginta esset annorum, duxit uxorem Rebeccam filiam Bathuelis Syri de Mesopotamia, sororem Laban.
Isaac was forty years old when he took Rebekah, the daughter of Bethuel the Aramean of Paddan Aram, the sister of Laban the Aramean, to be his wife.
21 Deprecatusque est Isaac Dominum pro uxore sua, eo quod esset sterilis: qui exaudivit eum, et dedit conceptum Rebeccæ.
Isaac prayed for his wife, because she was barren. And God was moved by his prayer, and Rebekah his wife conceived.
22 Sed collidebantur in utero eius parvuli; quæ ait: Si sic mihi futurum erat, quid necesse fuit concipere? Perrexitque ut consuleret Dominum.
The children struggled together within her. She said, "If all is well, why am I like this?" She went to inquire of God.
23 Qui respondens, ait: Duæ gentes sunt in utero tuo, et duo populi ex ventre tuo dividentur, populusque populum superabit, et maior serviet minori.
And he 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 Iam tempus pariendi advenerat, et ecce gemini in utero eius reperti sunt.
When the time came for her to give birth, look, there were twins in her womb.
25 Qui prior egressus est, rufus erat, et totus in morem pellis hispidus: vocatumque est nomen eius Esau. Protinus alter egrediens, plantam fratris tenebat manu: et idcirco appellavit eum Iacob.
The first came out red all over, like a hairy garment. They named him Esau.
26 Sexagenarius erat Isaac quando nati sunt ei parvuli.
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 Quibus adultis, factus est Esau vir gnarus venandi, et homo agricola: Iacob autem vir simplex habitabat in tabernaculis.
The boys grew. Esau was a skillful hunter, a man of the field. Jacob was a quiet man, living in tents.
28 Isaac amabat Esau, eo quod de venationibus illius vesceretur: et Rebecca diligebat Iacob.
And Isaac loved Esau, because he had a taste for wild animals, but Rebekah loved Jacob.
29 Coxit autem Iacob pulmentum: ad quem cum venisset Esau de agro lassus,
Now Jacob was cooking stew, and Esau came in from the field, and he was famished.
30 ait: Da mihi de coctione hac rufa, quia oppido lassus sum. Quam ob causam vocatum est nomen eius Edom.
Esau said to Jacob, "Please feed me with that same red stew, for I am famished." Therefore his name was called Edom.
31 Cui dixit Iacob: Vende mihi primogenita tua.
Jacob said, "First, sell me your birthright."
32 Ille respondit: En morior, quid mihi proderunt primogenita?
Esau said, "Look, I am about to die. What good is the birthright to me?"
33 Ait Iacob: Iura ergo mihi. Iuravit ei Esau, et vendidit primogenita.
Jacob said, "Swear to me first." So he swore to him, and he sold his birthright to Jacob.
34 Et sic accepto pane et lentis edulio, comedit, et bibit, et abiit; parvipendens quod primogenita vendidisset.
Jacob gave Esau bread and stew of lentils. He ate and drank, rose up, and went his way. So Esau despised his birthright.
