← Genesis 25:25	Genesis 25:26 (KJV)	Genesis 25:27 →
And the first came out red, all over like an hairy garment; and they called his name Esau.	And after that came his brother out, and his hand took hold on Esau's heel; and his name was called Jacob: and Isaac [was] threescore years old when she bare them.	And the boys grew: and Esau was a cunning hunter, a man of the field; and Jacob [was] a plain man, dwelling in tents.
