UGenesise 25:21-34

U-Isaka wamkhulekela umkakhe kuJehova, ngokuba wayeyinyumba; uJehova wamzwela; uRebeka umkakhe wakhulelwa. Abantwana baqhubukushana phakathi kwakhe; wathi: “Uma kunje, ngisekhona ngani na?” Waya wabuza kuJehova. UJehova wathi kuye: “Esiswini sakho kukhona izizwe ezimbili; izinhlobo ezimbili zabantu ziyakwahlukana ezibilinini zakho; esinye isizwe siyakwahlula esinye, omkhulu akhonze omncane.” Kwathi seziphelele izinsuku zakhe zokubeletha, bheka, kwakukhona amawele esiswini sakhe. Waphuma owokuqala, ebomvana wonke umzimba, enjengengubo yoboya; baqamba igama lakhe ngokuthi u-Esawu. Emva kwalokho kwaphuma umfowabo, isandla sakhe sibambelele esithendeni sika-Esawu; igama lakhe labizwa ngokuthi uJakobe;* u-Isaka wayeneminyaka engamashumi ayisithupha ekuzalweni kwabo. Abafana bakhula; u-Esawu waba yiphisi, umuntu wasendle; uJakobe waba yibeka, ehlala ematendeni. U-Isaka wamthanda u-Esawu, ngokuba wayedla inyama yenyamazane yakhe; uRebeka wamthanda uJakobe. Kwathi uJakobe wapheka ukudla, kwafika u-Esawu evela endle, ediniwe. U-Esawu wathi kuJakobe: “Ake ungiphe ukuba ngidle kokubomvu, kulokho okubomvu, ngokuba sengidiniwe,” ngalokho igama lakhe lathiwa u-Edomi.* Wayesethi uJakobe: “Thengisa kimi namuhla ngefa lobuzibulo bakho.” Wathi u-Esawu: “Bheka, sengizakufa; linosizo luni kimi ifa lobuzibulo bami na?” UJakobe wathi: “Funga kimi namuhla.” Wayesefunga kuye, wathengisa ngefa lobuzibulo bakhe kuJakobe. UJakobe wamupha u-Esawu isinkwa nokudla kwembumba; wadla, waphuza, wavuka, wahamba; wadelela kanjalo u-Esawu ubuzibulo bakhe.
