Onyx stones, and stones to be set in the ephod, and in the breastplate.

Oil for the light, spices for anointing oil, and for sweet incense,

And rams" skins dyed red, and badgers" skins, and shittim wood,

And blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine linen, and goats" hair,

And this is the offering which ye shall take of them; gold, and silver, and brass,

Speak unto the children of Israel, that they bring me an offering: of every man that giveth it willingly with his heart ye shall take my offering.

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.

And Jacob said, Swear to me this day; and he sware unto him: and he sold his birthright unto Jacob.

And Esau said, Behold, I am at the point to die: and what profit shall this birthright do to me?

And Jacob said, Sell me this day thy birthright.

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.

And Jacob sod pottage: and Esau came from the field, and he was faint:

And Isaac loved Esau, because he did eat of his venison: but Rebekah loved Jacob.

And the boys grew: and Esau was a cunning hunter, a man of the field; and Jacob was a plain man, dwelling in tents.

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.

And the first came out red, all over like an hairy garment; and they called his name Esau.

And when her days to be delivered were fulfilled, behold, there were twins in her womb.

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.

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.

And Isaac intreated the LORD for his wife, because she was barren: and the LORD was intreated of him, and Rebekah his wife conceived.

And Isaac was forty years old when he took Rebekah to wife, the daughter of Bethuel the Syrian of Padanaram, the sister to Laban the Syrian.

And these are the generations of Isaac, Abraham"s son: Abraham begat Isaac:

And they dwelt from Havilah unto Shur, that is before Egypt, as thou goest toward Assyria: and he died in the presence of all his brethren.

And these are the years of the life of Ishmael, an hundred and thirty and seven years: and he gave up the ghost and died; and was gathered unto his people.

These are the sons of Ishmael, and these are their names, by their towns, and by their castles; twelve princes according to their nations.

Hadar, and Tema, Jetur, Naphish, and Kedemah:

And Mishma, and Dumah, and Massa,

And these are the names of the sons of Ishmael, by their names, according to their generations: the firstborn of Ishmael, Nebajoth; and Kedar, and Adbeel, and Mibsam,

Now these are the generations of Ishmael, Abraham"s son, whom Hagar the Egyptian, Sarah"s handmaid, bare unto Abraham:

And it came to pass after the death of Abraham, that God blessed his son Isaac; and Isaac dwelt by the well Lahairoi.
