And Jacob said, Sell me this day thy birthright.
And Esau said, Behold, I am at the point to die: And what profit shall this birthright do to me?
And Jacob, said, Swear this to me this day; and he sware unto him: and he sold his birthright unto Jacob.
Then Jacob gave Esau bread and pottage of lentiles; and he did eat and drink, and rose up, and went his way: thus Esau despised his birthright.
- Genesis (ch. XXV, v. 31-34) [Birth]
