Plain; Plainly
From BiblePortal Wikipedia
Plain; Plainly [1]
plān , plān´li : In Genesis 25:27 , the King James Version "plain" represents תּם , tam . If a contrast between the vocations of Jacob and Esau is meant, the Revised Version (British and American) ("quiet," margin "harmless") may be right. But elsewhere ( Job 1:1; Psalm 37:37 , etc.) the word means "perfect," and so probably here; the failings of the great patriarch did not detract from the general estimate of him ( Matthew 8:11 ). In Ezra 4:18 "translated" (Revised Version margin) is better than "plainly read."
