Genesis 25:23


Genesis 25:22 Genesis 25:23 (KJV) Genesis 25:24
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.
And the LORD said unto her, Two nations [are] in thy womb, and two manner of people shall be separated from thy bowels; and [the one] people shall be stronger than [the other] people; and the elder shall serve the younger.
And when her days to be delivered were fulfilled, behold, [there were] twins in her womb.
