21 And Isaak will supplicate to Jehovah for his wife, because she was barren: and Jehovah will be supplicated for him, and Rebekah his wife will conceive. 22 And the sons will struggle within her: and she will say. If so, wherefore am I thus? And she will go to inquire of Jehovah. 23 And Jehovah will say to her, Two nations are in thy womb, and two peoples shall be separated from thy belly: and a people shall be strong above a people, and the great shall serve the small. 24 And her days shall be completed to bring forth; and behold, twins in her belly. 25 And the first shall come forth red, wholly as a mantle of hair: and they will call his name Esau. 26 And after this, his brother will come forth, and his hand having laid hold upon Esau's heel; and his name was called Jacob: and Isaak the son of sixty years in her bringing them forth.
