22. The sons jostled within her, and she said, "If it is so, why am I this way?" and she went to inquire of Yahweh.
23. Yahweh said to her, "Two nations are in your womb, and two peoples will divide from your body; one people will be stronger than another, and the greater will serve the younger."
24. When her days to give birth were fulfilled, behold, twins were in her womb.
