Genesis 38:28-30
1599 Geneva Bible
28 And when she was in travail, the one put out his hand: and the midwife took and bound a red thread about his hand, saying, this is come out first.
29 But when he [a]plucked his hand back again, lo, his brother came out, and the midwife said, How hast [b]thou broken the breach upon thee? and his name was called (A)Perez.
30 And afterward came out his brother that had the red thread about his hand, and his name was called Zerah.
