Genesis 25:21


Genesis 25:20 Genesis 25:21 (KJV) Genesis 25:22
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 Isaac intreated the LORD for his wife, because she [was] barren: and the LORD was intreated of him, and Rebekah his wife conceived.
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.
