Genesis 38:27-29

Christian Standard Bible Anglicised

²⁷ When the time came for her to give birth, there were twins in her womb. ²⁸ As she was giving birth, one of them put out his hand, and the midwife took it and tied a scarlet thread round it, announcing, ‘This one came out first.’ ²⁹ But then he pulled his hand back, out came his brother, and she said, ‘See how you have broken out! ’ So he was named Perez.^[a](A)
