28 While she was giving birth, one child put out his hand, and the midwife took a scarlet thread and tied it on his hand, saying, |This one came out first.| 29 But then he drew back his hand, and his brother came out before him. She said, |How you have broken out of the womb!| So he was named Perez. 30 Afterward his brother came out--the one who had the scarlet thread on his hand--and he was named Zerah.
