GEN_25:23 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.
GEN_25:24 And when her days to be delivered were fulfilled, behold, [there were] twins in her womb.
