Genesis 25:22-24

The Voice

²²But the children she carried struggled and fought with each other until, in great pain, she exclaimed, “What is going on? Why is this happening to me?” In frustration she inquired of the Eternal One why this civil war was occurring inside of her.

²³Eternal One (to Rebekah): Two nations are growing inside of your womb,
        and the two peoples will be divided in the future.
    One will be stronger than the other,
        and the older will serve the younger.^[a]
