1611 marginal noteRom. 9.12.

¶ And when her dayes to be deliuered were fulfilled, behold, there were twinnes in her wombe.

¶ And when the LORD saw that Leah was hated, hee opened her wombe: but Rachel was barren.

And Iacobs anger was kindled against Rachel, and he said, Am I in Gods stead, who hath withheld from thee the fruit of the wombe?

¶ And God remembred Rachel, and God hearkened to her, and opened her wombe.

¶ And it came to passe in the time of her trauaile, that beholde, twinnes were in her wombe.

Euen by the God of thy father who shall helpe thee, and by the Almightie, who shall blesse thee with blessings of heauen aboue, blessings of the deepe that lyeth vnder, blessings of the breasts and of the wombe.
