Genesis 25:20-22
1599 Geneva Bible
20 And Isaac was forty years old, when he took Rebekah to wife, the daughter of Bethuel the [a]Aramite of Padan Aram, and sister to Laban the Aramite.
21 And Isaac prayed unto the Lord for his wife, because she was barren: and the Lord was entreated of him, and Rebekah his wife conceived.
22 But the children [b]strove together within her: therefore she said, Seeing it is so, why am I [c]thus? wherefore she went [d]to ask the Lord.
