Genesis 25:23-26
23The Lord said to her, “1Two nations are in your womb; 2And two peoples will be separated from your body; And one people shall be stronger than the other; And 3the older shall serve the younger.” 24When her days to be delivered were fulfilled, behold, there were twins in her womb. 25Now the first came forth red, 4all over like a hairy garment; and they named him Esau. 26Afterward his brother came forth with 5his hand holding on to Esau’s heel, so 6his name was called 7Jacob; and Isaac was 8sixty years old when she gave birth to them.
