Genesis 25:26-28
English Standard Version
26 Afterward his brother came out with (A)his hand holding Esau's heel, so (B)his name was called Jacob.[a] Isaac was sixty years old when she bore them.
27 When the boys grew up, Esau was (C)a skillful hunter, a man of the field, while Jacob was a quiet man, (D)dwelling in tents. 28 Isaac loved Esau because (E)he ate of his game, but Rebekah loved Jacob.
