וַיֹּ֨אמֶר עֵשָׂ֜ו אֶֽל יַעֲקֹ֗ב
and=he/it_said ˊĒsāv to/near Yaakob
Consider what is the best way in your language to translate this quote margin. Alternate translation: “So Esau asked Jacob,”
הַלְעִיטֵ֤נִי נָא֙
eat,me now
Alternate translation: “Please let me eat”
מִן הָאָדֹ֤ם הָאָדֹם֙ הַזֶּ֔ה
from/more_than the,red the,red the=this
Alternate translation: “some of that dark red stew you are making”
כִּ֥י עָיֵ֖ף אָנֹ֑כִי
that/for/because/then/when famished I
See how you translated exhausted in verse 29. Alternate translation: “because I am weak from hunger!” or “because I am hungry and weak!”
עַל כֵּ֥ן
on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in yes/correct/thus/so
Alternate translation: “Because he said that,”
קָרָֽא שְׁמ֖וֹ
he/it_called his/its=name
Frequently in the Hebrew text, this phrase has a general meaning and does not refer to someone specific. Do what is best in your language. Alternate translation: “he is also called” or “they called him”
Note 2 topic: translate-names
אֱדֽוֹם
ʼEdōm
You could include the meaning of Edom in your translation or in a footnote so that it is clear why Esau was given that name.
25:30 Esau was preoccupied with his appetite. Being driven by one’s appetites leaves no place for spiritual values. The text emphasizes this by using a Hebrew word (translated give) that was normally used for feeding animals.
• Edom, which means “red”: See study note on 25:25.

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
