Genesis 25:25-27
English Standard Version
25 The first came out red, (A)all his body like a hairy cloak, so they called his name Esau. 26 Afterward his brother came out with (B)his hand holding Esau's heel, so (C)his name was called Jacob.[a] Isaac was sixty years old when she bore them.
27 When the boys grew up, Esau was (D)a skillful hunter, a man of the field, while Jacob was a quiet man, (E)dwelling in tents.
