(Malachi 1:1–5; Romans 9:6–29)

Likewise these are the generations of Izhak Abrahams sonne Abraham begate Izhak,
20
And Izhak was fourtie yeere olde, when he tooke Rebekah to wife, the daughter of Bethuel the Aramite of Padan Aram, and sister to Laban the Aramite.
21
And Izhak prayed vuto the Lord for his wife, because she was barren: and the Lord was intreated of him, and Rebekah his wife conceiued,
22
But the children stroue together within her: therefore shee sayde, Seeing it is so, why am I thus? wherefore she went to aske the Lord.
23
And the Lord sayd to her, Two nations are in thy wombe, and two maner of people shalbe diuided out of thy bowels, and the one people shall be mightier then the other, and the elder shall serue the yonger.
24
Therefore when her time of deliuerance was fulfilled, behold, twinnes were in her wombe.
25
So he that came out first was red, and he was all ouer as a rough garment, and they called his name Esau.
26
And afterward came his brother out, and his hande helde Esau by the heele: therefore his name was called Iaakob. Nowe Izhak was threescore yeere olde when Rebekah bare them.
27
And the boyes grew, and Esau was a cunning hunter, and liued in the fields: but Iaakob was a plaine man, and dwelt in tentes.
28
And Izhak loued Esau, for venison was his meate, but Rebekah loued Iaakob.

29
Nowe Iaakob sod pottage, and Esau came from the fielde and was wearie.
30
Then Esau sayd to Iaakob, Let me eate, I pray thee, of that pottage so red, for I am wearie. Therefore was his name called Edom.
31
And Iaakob sayd, Sell me euen nowe thy birthright.
32
And Esau sayd, Lo, I am almost dead, what is then this birthright to me?
33
Iaakob then said, Sweare to me euen now. And he sware to him, and solde his birthright vnto Iaakob.
34
Then Iaakob gaue Esau bread and pottage of lentiles: and he did eate and drinke, and rose vp, and went his way: So Esau contemned his birthright.
(1 Chronicles 1:32–33)
1
Abraham took another wife, and her name was Keturah.
2
She bore him Zimran, Jokshan, Medan, Midian, Ishbak, and Shuah.
3
Jokshan became the father of Sheba, and Dedan. The sons of Dedan were Asshurim, Letushim, and Leummim.
4
The sons of Midian were Ephah, Epher, Hanoch, Abida, and Eldaah. All these were the children of Keturah.
5
Abraham gave all that he had to Isaac,
6
but Abraham gave gifts to the sons of Abraham’s concubines. While he still lived, he sent them away from Isaac his son, eastward, to the east country.

The Death of Abraham

7
These are the days of the years of Abraham’s life which he lived: one hundred seventy-five years.
8
Abraham gave up his spirit, and died at a good old age, an old man, and full of years, and was gathered to his people.
9
Isaac and Ishmael, his sons, buried him in the cave of Machpelah, in the field of Ephron, the son of Zohar the Hittite, which is near Mamre,
10
the field which Abraham purchased from the children of Heth. Abraham was buried there with Sarah, his wife.
11
After the death of Abraham, God blessed Isaac, his son. Isaac lived by Beer Lahai Roi.

The Descendants of Ishmael

(1 Chronicles 1:28–31)
12
Now this is the history of the generations of Ishmael, Abraham’s son, whom Hagar the Egyptian, Sarah’s servant, bore to Abraham.
13
These are the names of the sons of Ishmael, by their names, according to the order of their birth: the firstborn of Ishmael, Nebaioth, then Kedar, Adbeel, Mibsam,
14
Mishma, Dumah, Massa,
15
Hadad, Tema, Jetur, Naphish, and Kedemah.
16
These are the sons of Ishmael, and these are their names, by their villages, and by their encampments: twelve princes, according to their nations.
17
These are the years of the life of Ishmael: one hundred thirty-seven years. He gave up his spirit and died, and was gathered to his people.
18
They lived from Havilah to Shur that is before Egypt, as you go toward Assyria. He lived opposite all his relatives.

Jacob and Esau

(Malachi 1:1–5; Romans 9:6–29)
19
This is the history of the generations of Isaac, Abraham’s son. Abraham became the father of Isaac.
20
Isaac was forty years old when he took Rebekah, the daughter of Bethuel the Syrian of Paddan Aram, the sister of Laban the Syrian, to be his wife.
21
Isaac entreated the LORD for his wife, because she was barren. The LORD was entreated by him, and Rebekah his wife conceived.
22
The children struggled together within her. She said, “If it is like this, why do I live?” She went to inquire of the LORD.
23
The LORD 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
When her days to be delivered were fulfilled, behold, there were twins in her womb.
25
The first came out red all over, like a hairy garment. They named him Esau.
26
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
The boys grew. Esau was a skillful hunter, a man of the field. Jacob was a quiet man, living in tents.
28
Now Isaac loved Esau, because he ate his venison. Rebekah loved Jacob.

Esau Sells His Birthright

29
Jacob boiled stew. Esau came in from the field, and he was famished.
30
Esau said to Jacob, “Please feed me with some of that red stew, for I am famished.” Therefore his name was called Edom.(a)
31
Jacob said, “First, sell me your birthright.”
32
Esau said, “Behold, I am about to die. What good is the birthright to me?”
33
Jacob said, “Swear to me first.” He swore to him. He sold his birthright to Jacob.
34
Jacob gave Esau bread and lentil stew. He ate and drank, rose up, and went his way. So Esau despised his birthright.
