Genesis 25:25-27
New King James Version
25 And the first came out red. He was (A)like a hairy garment all over; so they called his name [a]Esau. 26 Afterward his brother came out, and (B)his hand took hold of Esau’s heel; so (C)his name was called [b]Jacob. Isaac was sixty years old when she bore them.
27 So the boys grew. And Esau was (D)a skillful hunter, a man of the field; but Jacob was (E)a [c]mild man, (F)dwelling in tents.
