|

|
32. "Look," said Esau, "I'm about to die! What use is the birthright to me?"
|
32. And Esau H6215 said H559 , Behold H2009 , I H595 am at the point H1980 to die H4191 : and what profit H4100 shall this H2088 birthright H1062 do to me?
|
|
33. But Jacob said, "Swear an oath to me now." So Esau swore an oath to him and sold his birthright to Jacob.
|
33. And Jacob H3290 said H559 , Swear H7650 to me this day H3117 ; and he swore H7650 unto him : and he sold H4376 H853 his birthright H1062 unto Jacob H3290 .
