1
And Abraham added, and took a woman, and her name was Keturah.
2
And for him she gave··birth··to Zimran, and Jokshan, and Medan, and Midian, and Ishbak, and Shuach.
3
And Jokshan begot Sheba and Dedan. And the sons of Dedan were Asshurim,* and Letushim, and Leummim.
4
And the sons of Midian: Ephah, and Epher, and Enoch, and Abida, and Eldaah. All these were the sons of Keturah.
5
And Abraham gave all that he had◦ to Isaac.
6
And to the sons of the concubines that Abraham had◦, Abraham gave gifts; and he sent· them ·away from being by◦ Isaac his son, when he was still living, eastward to▵ the land of the east.
7
And these are the days of the years of the lives of Abraham which he lived; a hundred years, and seventy years, and five years.
8
And Abraham expired and died with good gray··hairs, old and sated of days*, and was gathered to▵ his peoples.
9
And Isaac and Ishmael his sons buried him in the cave of Machpelah, in the field of Ephron the son of Zohar the Hittite, which is by◦ the face of Mamre;
10
the field which Abraham bought from◦ the sons of Heth; there was Abraham buried, and Sarah his wife.
11
And it was, after the death of Abraham that God blessed Isaac his son; and Isaac dwelt at Beer-lahai-roi.
12
And these are the births of Ishmael the son of Abraham, whom Hagar the Egyptian◦, Sarah’s handmaid, gave··birth for Abraham.
13
And these are the names of the sons of Ishmael, by their names, according··to▵ their births: the firstborn of Ishmael, Nebaioth; and Kedar, and Adhbeel, and Mibsam;
14
and Mishma, and Dumah, and Massa;
15
Chadad, and Tema, Jetur, Naphish, and Kedemah;
16
these are they◦, the sons of Ishmael, and these are their names, in their villages and in their castles; twelve chiefs for their peoples◦.
17
And these are the years of the life of Ishmael, a hundred years, and thirty years, and seven years; and he expired and died, and was gathered to▵ his peoples.
18
And they resided from Havilah even··to Shur, who is upon the faces of Egypt, in coming toward Assyria; he settled* against the faces of all his brothers.
19
And these are the births of Isaac, the son of Abraham; Abraham begot Isaac.
20
And Isaac was a son of forty years when he took Rebekah, the daughter of Bethuel the Aramean, of Paddan-aram, the sister of Laban the Aramean, to himself for a woman.
21
And Isaac supplicated to Jehovah on account of his woman, for she◦ was barren, and Jehovah was supplicated for him, and Rebekah his woman conceived.
22
And the sons clashed··with··each··other in the midst··of her; and she said, If so, why am I▵ thus? And she went to inquire of Jehovah.
23
And Jehovah said to her, Two nations are in thy belly, and Two peoples◦ shall be separated from thy bowels, and the one people◦ shall prevail above◦ the other people◦, and the greater◦ shall serve the lesser◦.
24
And her days were··fulfilled to give··birth, and behold twins were in her belly.
25
And the first came··out all of him ruddy as a mantle◦ of hair, and they called his name Esau.
26
And after that came··forth his brother, and his hand seized on◦ Esau’s heel*, and he called his name Jacob*; and Isaac was a son of sixty years when she gave··birth to them.
27
And the lads grew··up; and Esau was a man◦ knowing hunting, a man◦ of the field; and Jacob was a perfect man◦, dwelling in tents.
28
And Isaac loved Esau, for his hunting was in his mouth; and Rebekah loved Jacob.
29
And Jacob stewed a stew, and Esau came from the field, and he◦ was faint.
30
And Esau said to▵ Jacob, Let me sup, I pray◦, of the red, this red, for I▵ am faint; therefore he called his name Edom.
31
And Jacob said, Sell as··it··were today* thy birthright to me.
32
And Esau said, Behold I▵ am going◦ to die, and for what is this birthright to me?
33
And Jacob said, Promise to me as··it··were today; and he promised to him, and he sold his birthright to Jacob.
34
And Jacob gave Esau bread and stew of lentils; and he did eat and drink, and rose··up and went; and Esau despised the birthright.
