2Esdr 6:7 Then answered I and said, What shall be the parting asunder of the times? or when shall be the end of the first, and the beginning of it that followeth?
2Esdr 6:8 And he said unto me, From Abraham unto Isaac, when Jacob and Esau were born of him, Jacob's hand held first the heel of Esau.
2Esdr 6:9 For Esau is the end of the world, and Jacob is the beginning of it that followeth.
2Esdr 6:10 The hand of man is betwixt the heel and the hand: other question, Esdras, ask thou not.
