Jakob sprach: So schwöre mir heute. Und er schwur ihm und verkaufte also Jakob seine Erstgeburt.
Y dijo Jacob: Júrame lo en este día. Y él le juró, y vendió a Jacob su primogenitura.
Jacob le dijo: «Júramelo hoy». Él se lo juró y vendió a Jacob su primogenitura.
Et Jacob dit: Jure-le moi d'abord. Il le lui jura, et il vendit son droit d'aînesse à Jacob.
E Giacobbe disse: Giurami oggi che tu me la vendi. Ed Esaù gliel giurò; e vendette la sua primogenitura a Giacobbe.
Então disse Jacó: Jura-me hoje. E jurou-lhe e vendeu a sua primogenitura a Jacó.
