And the first came out red, all over like an hairy garment; and they called his name Esau.(Genesis 25:25)
And after that came his brother out, and his hand took hold on Esau's heel; and his name was called Jacob: and Isaac was threescore years old when she bare them.(Genesis 25:26)
And the boys grew: and Esau was a cunning hunter, a man of the field; and Jacob was a plain man, dwelling in tents.(Genesis 25:27)

And Jacob sod pottage: and Esau came from the field, and he was faint:(Genesis 25:29)
And Esau said to Jacob, Feed me, I pray thee, with that same red pottage; for I am faint: therefore was his name called Edom.(Genesis 25:30)
And Jacob said, Sell me this day thy birthright.(Genesis 25:31)
