And
Isaac
entreated the Lord
for his
wife, because she was barren: and the Lord was entreated of
him, and Rebekah his
wife conceived.
And
the children
struggled together
within her; and she said, If it be so,
why
am I thus? And she went to inquire of the Lord.
**
I do set my
bow in the
cloud, and it shall be for a token of a covenant - between
me and the earth.
And
it shall come to pass, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the bow

said unto her,
Two nations are in thy womb, and two manner
of
people shall be separated from
thy bowels; and the one
people shall be stronger than the other people; and the elder shall

and the workman, and between - thy seed and her seed;
it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.

And
after
that came his brother
out, and his
hand
took hold on Esau's heel; and his name was called Jacob: and Isaac
was threescore years old when she bare them.

. . . and
it
came to pass, when they were in the field, that Cain rose
up
against Abel his brother, and slew him.

But of
the fruit

said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye - touch it,

Behold,

Esau, as touching
thee, doth comfort himself,
purposing to kill thee.

And it came to pass, as soon
as he came nigh unto the camp, that he saw the calf, and the dancing:
and Moses' anger waxed hot,
and
he cast the tables out of his
hands,
and
brake them beneath the mount.

and
as
he came - and drew
nigh
to the house, he heard
musick and dancing.

Moreover
the word of the Lord came unto me,
saying,
Say
now
to the rebellious house, Know ye not what
these things mean? tell
them, Behold, the king
of Babylon is
come to Jerusalem, and hath taken the king thereof, and the princes thereof, and led them with him to Babylon;
And
hath taken of the king's seed, and made a covenant with him, and hath taken an oath
of him: he hath also taken the mighty of the land:
That
the kingdom
might be base, that it
might not lift itself
up,
but that by keeping of his covenant it might stand.

And
he
called one of the
servants, and asked what these things
meant.
