Genesis 25

  1. And Isaac intreated the LORD for his wife, because she was barren: and the LORD was intreated of him, and Rebekah his wife conceived.
  2. And the children struggled together within her; and she said, If it be so, why am I thus? And she went to enquire of the LORD.
  3. And the LORD said unto her, Two nations are in thy womb, and two manner of people shall be separated from thy bowels; and the one people shall be stronger than the other people; and the elder shall serve the younger.
  4. And when her days to be delivered were fulfilled, behold, there were twins in her womb.
  5. And the first came out red, all over like an hairy garment; and they called his name Esau.
  6. 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.
  7. And the boys grew: and Esau was a cunning hunter, a man of the field; and Jacob was a plain man, dwelling in tents.
  8. And Isaac loved Esau, because he did eat of his venison: but Rebekah loved Jacob.
  9. And Jacob sod pottage: and Esau came from the field, and he was faint:
  10. 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.
  11. And Jacob said, Sell me this day thy birthright.
  12. And Esau said, Behold, I am at the point to die: and what profit shall this birthright do to me?
  13. And Jacob said, Swear to me this day; and he sware unto him: and he sold his birthright unto Jacob.
  14. 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 26

  1. And Esau was forty years old when he took to wife Judith the daughter of Beeri the Hittite, and Bashemath the daughter of Elon the Hittite:
  2. и они были в тягость Исааку и Ревекке. 

Genesis 27

  1. And it came to pass, that when Isaac was old, and his eyes were dim, so that he could not see, he called Esau his eldest son, and said unto him, My son: and he said unto him, Behold, here am I.
  2. And he said, Behold now, I am old, I know not the day of my death:
  3. Now therefore take, I pray thee, thy weapons, thy quiver and thy bow, and go out to the field, and take me some venison;
  4. And make me savoury meat, such as I love, and bring it to me, that I may eat; that my soul may bless thee before I die.
  5. And Rebekah heard when Isaac spake to Esau his son. And Esau went to the field to hunt for venison, and to bring it.
  6. And Rebekah spake unto Jacob her son, saying, Behold, I heard thy father speak unto Esau thy brother, saying,
  7. Bring me venison, and make me savoury meat, that I may eat, and bless thee before the LORD before my death.
  8. Now therefore, my son, obey my voice according to that which I command thee.
  9. Go now to the flock, and fetch me from thence two good kids of the goats; and I will make them savoury meat for thy father, such as he loveth:
  10. And thou shalt bring it to thy father, that he may eat, and that he may bless thee before his death.
  11. And Jacob said to Rebekah his mother, Behold, Esau my brother is a hairy man, and I am a smooth man:
  12. My father peradventure will feel me, and I shall seem to him as a deceiver; and I shall bring a curse upon me, and not a blessing.
  13. And his mother said unto him, Upon me be thy curse, my son: only obey my voice, and go fetch me them.
  14. And he went, and fetched, and brought them to his mother: and his mother made savoury meat, such as his father loved.
  15. And Rebekah took goodly raiment of her eldest son Esau, which were with her in the house, and put them upon Jacob her younger son:
  16. And she put the skins of the kids of the goats upon his hands, and upon the smooth of his neck:
  17. And she gave the savoury meat and the bread, which she had prepared, into the hand of her son Jacob.
  18. And he came unto his father, and said, My father: and he said, Here am I; who art thou, my son?
  19. And Jacob said unto his father, I am Esau thy first born; I have done according as thou badest me: arise, I pray thee, sit and eat of my venison, that thy soul may bless me.
  20. And Isaac said unto his son, How is it that thou hast found it so quickly, my son? And he said, Because the LORD thy God brought it to me.
  21. And Isaac said unto Jacob, Come near, I pray thee, that I may feel thee, my son, whether thou be my very son Esau or not.
  22. And Jacob went near unto Isaac his father; and he felt him, and said, The voice is Jacob's voice, but the hands are the hands of Esau.
  23. And he discerned him not, because his hands were hairy, as his brother Esau's hands: so he blessed him.
  24. And he said, Art thou my very son Esau? And he said, I am.
  25. And he said, Bring it near to me, and I will eat of my son's venison, that my soul may bless thee. And he brought it near to him, and he did eat: and he brought him wine and he drank.
  26. And his father Isaac said unto him, Come near now, and kiss me, my son.
  27. And he came near, and kissed him: and he smelled the smell of his raiment, and blessed him, and said, See, the smell of my son is as the smell of a field which the LORD hath blessed:
  28. Therefore God give thee of the dew of heaven, and the fatness of the earth, and plenty of corn and wine:
  29. Let people serve thee, and nations bow down to thee: be lord over thy brethren, and let thy mother's sons bow down to thee: cursed be every one that curseth thee, and blessed be he that blesseth thee.
  30. And it came to pass, as soon as Isaac had made an end of blessing Jacob, and Jacob was yet scarce gone out from the presence of Isaac his father, that Esau his brother came in from his hunting.
  31. And he also had made savoury meat, and brought it unto his father, and said unto his father, Let my father arise, and eat of his son's venison, that thy soul may bless me.
  32. And Isaac his father said unto him, Who art thou? And he said, I am thy son, thy firstborn Esau.
  33. And Isaac trembled very exceedingly, and said, Who? where is he that hath taken venison, and brought it me, and I have eaten of all before thou camest, and have blessed him? yea, and he shall be blessed.
  34. And when Esau heard the words of his father, he cried with a great and exceeding bitter cry, and said unto his father, Bless me, even me also, O my father.
  35. And he said, Thy brother came with subtilty, and hath taken away thy blessing.
  36. And he said, Is not he rightly named Jacob? for he hath supplanted me these two times: he took away my birthright; and, behold, now he hath taken away my blessing. And he said, Hast thou not reserved a blessing for me?
  37. And Isaac answered and said unto Esau, Behold, I have made him thy lord, and all his brethren have I given to him for servants; and with corn and wine have I sustained him: and what shall I do now unto thee, my son?
  38. And Esau said unto his father, Hast thou but one blessing, my father? bless me, even me also, O my father. And Esau lifted up his voice, and wept.
  39. And Isaac his father answered and said unto him, Behold, thy dwelling shall be the fatness of the earth, and of the dew of heaven from above;
  40. And by thy sword shalt thou live, and shalt serve thy brother; and it shall come to pass when thou shalt have the dominion, that thou shalt break his yoke from off thy neck.
  41. And Esau hated Jacob because of the blessing wherewith his father blessed him: and Esau said in his heart, The days of mourning for my father are at hand; then will I slay my brother Jacob.
  42. And these words of Esau her elder son were told to Rebekah: and she sent and called Jacob her younger son, and said unto him, Behold, thy brother Esau, as touching thee, doth comfort himself, purposing to kill thee.
  43. Now therefore, my son, obey my voice; arise, flee thou to Laban my brother to Haran;
  44. And tarry with him a few days, until thy brother's fury turn away;
  45. Until thy brother's anger turn away from thee, and he forget that which thou hast done to him: then I will send, and fetch thee from thence: why should I be deprived also of you both in one day?
  46. And Rebekah said to Isaac, I am weary of my life because of the daughters of Heth: if Jacob take a wife of the daughters of Heth, such as these which are of the daughters of the land, what good shall my life do me?

Genesis 28

  1. And Isaac called Jacob, and blessed him, and charged him, and said unto him, Thou shalt not take a wife of the daughters of Canaan.
  2. Arise, go to Padanaram, to the house of Bethuel thy mother's father; and take thee a wife from thence of the daughers of Laban thy mother's brother.
  3. And God Almighty bless thee, and make thee fruitful, and multiply thee, that thou mayest be a multitude of people;
  4. And give thee the blessing of Abraham, to thee, and to thy seed with thee; that thou mayest inherit the land wherein thou art a stranger, which God gave unto Abraham.
  5. And Isaac sent away Jacob: and he went to Padanaram unto Laban, son of Bethuel the Syrian, the brother of Rebekah, Jacob's and Esau's mother.
  6. When Esau saw that Isaac had blessed Jacob, and sent him away to Padanaram, to take him a wife from thence; and that as he blessed him he gave him a charge, saying, Thou shalt not take a wife of the daughers of Canaan;
  7. And that Jacob obeyed his father and his mother, and was gone to Padanaram;
  8. And Esau seeing that the daughters of Canaan pleased not Isaac his father;
  9. Then went Esau unto Ishmael, and took unto the wives which he had Mahalath the daughter of Ishmael Abraham's son, the sister of Nebajoth, to be his wife. 
  10. And Jacob went out from Beersheba, and went toward Haran.

Genesis 32

  1. And Jacob sent messengers before him to Esau his brother unto the land of Seir, the country of Edom. 
  1. And the messengers returned to Jacob, saying, We came to thy brother Esau, and also he cometh to meet thee, and four hundred men with him.
  2. Then Jacob was greatly afraid and distressed: and he divided the people that was with him, and the flocks, and herds, and the camels, into two bands;
  3. And said, If Esau come to the one company, and smite it, then the other company which is left shall escape.
  4. And Jacob said, O God of my father Abraham, and God of my father Isaac, the LORD which saidst unto me, Return unto thy country, and to thy kindred, and I will deal well with thee:
  5. I am not worthy of the least of all the mercies, and of all the truth, which thou hast shewed unto thy servant; for with my staff I passed over this Jordan; and now I am become two bands.
  6. Deliver me, I pray thee, from the hand of my brother, from the hand of Esau: for I fear him, lest he will come and smite me, and the mother with the children.
  7. And thou saidst, I will surely do thee good, and make thy seed as the sand of the sea, which cannot be numbered for multitude.
  8. And he lodged there that same night; and took of that which came to his hand a present for Esau his brother;
  9. Two hundred she goats, and twenty he goats, two hundred ewes, and twenty rams,
  10. Thirty milch camels with their colts, forty kine, and ten bulls, twenty she asses, and ten foals.

Genesis 33

  1. And Jacob lifted up his eyes, and looked, and, behold, Esau came, and with him four hundred men. And he divided the children unto Leah, and unto Rachel, and unto the two handmaids.
  2. And he put the handmaids and their children foremost, and Leah and her children after, and Rachel and Joseph hindermost.
  3. And he passed over before them, and bowed himself to the ground seven times, until he came near to his brother
  4. And Esau ran to meet him, and embraced him, and fell on his neck, and kissed him: and they wept
  5. And he lifted up his eyes, and saw the women and the children; and said, Who are those with thee? And he said, The children which God hath graciously given thy servant.
  6. Then the handmaidens came near, they and their children, and they bowed themselves
  7. And Leah also with her children came near, and bowed themselves: and after came Joseph near and Rachel, and they bowed themselves.
  8. And he said, What meanest thou by all this drove which I met? And he said, These are to find grace in the sight of my lord.
  9. And Esau said, I have enough, my brother; keep that thou hast unto thyself.
  10. And Jacob said, Nay, I pray thee, if now I have found grace in thy sight, then receive my present at my hand: for therefore I have seen thy face, as though I had seen the face of God, and thou wast pleased with me.
  11. Take, I pray thee, my blessing that is brought to thee; because God hath dealt graciously with me, and because I have enough. And he urged him, and he took it.
  12. And he said, Let us take our journey, and let us go, and I will go before thee.
  13. And he said unto him, My lord knoweth that the children are tender, and the flocks and herds with young are with me: and if men should overdrive them one day, all the flock will die.
  14. Let my lord, I pray thee, pass over before his servant: and I will lead on softly, according as the cattle that goeth before me and the children be able to endure, until I come unto my lord unto Seir.
  15. And Esau said, Let me now leave with thee some of the folk that are with me. And he said, What needeth it? let me find grace in the sight of my lord.
  16. So Esau returned that day on his way unto Seir.
  17. And Jacob journeyed to Succoth, and built him an house, and made booths for his cattle: therefore the name of the place is called Succoth.

Genesis 36

And Esau was forty years old when he took to wife Judith the daughter of Beeri the Hittite, and Bashemath the daughter of Elon the Hittite:
(Genesis 26:34)

Then went Esau unto Ishmael, and took unto the wives which he had Mahalath the daughter of Ishmael Abraham's son, the sister of Nebajoth, to be his wife.
(Genesis 28:9)

  1. Now these are the generations of Esau, who is Edom.
  2. Esau took his wives of the daughters of Canaan; Adah the daughter of Elon the Hittite, and Aholibamah the daughter of Anah the daughter of Zibeon the Hivite;
  3. And Bashemath Ishmael's daughter, sister of Nebajoth.
  4. And Adah bare to Esau Eliphaz; and Bashemath bare Reuel;
  5. And Aholibamah bare Jeush, and Jaalam, and Korah: these are the sons of Esau, which were born unto him in the land of Canaan.
  6. And Esau took his wives, and his sons, and his daughters, and all the persons of his house, and his cattle, and all his beasts, and all his substance, which he had got in the land of Canaan; and went into the country from the face of his brother Jacob.
  7. For their riches were more than that they might dwell together; and the land wherein they were strangers could not bear them because of their cattle.
  8. Thus dwelt Esau in mount Seir: Esau is Edom.
  9. And these are the generations of Esau the father of the Edomites in mount Seir:
  10. These are the names of Esau's sons; Eliphaz the son of Adah the wife of Esau, Reuel the son of Bashemath the wife of Esau.
  1. And these were the sons of Aholibamah, the daughter of Anah the daughter of Zibeon, Esau's wife: and she bare to Esau Jeush, and Jaalam, and Korah.
  1. These are the sons of Esau, who is Edom, and these are their dukes.
  1. ... he is Esau the father of the Edomites.
