²⁵ The first baby was born red. His skin was like a hairy robe. So he was named Esau.^{[a] 26} When the second baby was born, he was holding on to Esau’s heel. So that baby was named Jacob.^[b] Isaac was 60 years old when they were born.

²⁷ When the boys grew up, Esau became a skilled hunter. He loved to be out in the fields. But Jacob was a quiet man. He stayed among the tents.
