¹ 亚伯拉罕又娶了一妻，名叫基土拉。

² 基土拉给他生了心兰、约珊、米但、米甸、伊施巴，和书亚。

³ 约珊生了示巴和底但。底但的子孙是亚书利族、利都是族，和利乌米族。

⁴ 米甸的儿子是以法、以弗、哈诺、亚比大，和以勒大。这都是基土拉的子孙。

⁵ 亚伯拉罕将一切所有的都给了以撒。

⁶ 亚伯拉罕把财物分给他庶出的众子，趁着自己还在世的时候打发他们离开他的儿子以撒，往东方去。

⁷ 亚伯拉罕一生的年日是一百七十五岁。

⁸ 亚伯拉罕寿高年迈，气绝而死，归到他列祖(原文作本民)那里。

⁹ 他两个儿子以撒、以实玛利把他埋葬在麦比拉洞里。这洞在幔利前、赫人琐辖的儿子以弗仑的田中，

¹⁰ 就是亚伯拉罕向赫人买的那块田。亚伯拉罕和他妻子撒拉都葬在那里。

¹¹ 亚伯拉罕死了以後，神赐福给他的儿子以撒。以撒靠近庇耳拉海莱居住。

¹² 撒拉的使女埃及人夏甲给亚伯拉罕所生的儿子是以实玛利。

¹³ 以实玛利儿子们的名字，按着他们的家谱记在下面。以实玛利的长子是尼拜约，又有基达、亚德别、米比衫、

¹⁴ 米施玛、度玛、玛撒、

¹⁵ 哈大、提玛、伊突、拿非施、基底玛。

¹⁶ 这是以实玛利众子的名字，照着他们的村庄、营寨，作了十二族的族长。

¹⁷ 以实玛利享寿一百三十七岁，气绝而死，归到他列祖(原文作本民)那里。

¹⁸ 他子孙的住处在他众弟兄东边，从哈腓拉直到埃及前的书珥，正在亚述的道上。

¹⁹ 亚伯拉罕的儿子以撒的後代记在下面。亚伯拉罕生以撒。

²⁰ 以撒娶利百加为妻的时候正四十岁。利百加是巴旦亚兰地的亚兰人彼土利的女儿，是亚兰人拉班的妹子。

²¹ 以撒因他妻子不生育，就为他祈求耶和华；耶和华应允他的祈求，他的妻子利百加就怀了孕。

²² 孩子们在他腹中彼此相争，他就说：若是这样，我为甚麽活着呢(或作我为甚麽如此呢)？他就去求问耶和华。

²³ 耶和华对他说：两国在你腹内；两族要从你身上出来。这族必强於那族；将来大的要服事小的。

²⁴ 生产的日子到了，腹中果然是双子。

²⁵ 先产的身体发红，浑身有毛，如同皮衣，他们就给他起名叫以扫(就是有毛的意思)。

²⁶ 随後又生了以扫的兄弟，手抓住以扫的脚跟，因此给他起名叫雅各(就是抓住的意思)。利百加生下两个儿子的时候，以撒年正六十岁。

²⁷ 两个孩子渐渐长大，以扫善於打猎，常在田野；雅各为人安静，常住在帐棚里。

²⁸ 以撒爱以扫，因为常吃他的野味；利百加却爱雅各。

²⁹ 有一天，雅各熬汤，以扫从田野回来累昏了。

³⁰ 以扫对雅各说：我累昏了，求你把这红汤给我喝。因此以扫又叫以东(就是红的意思)。

³¹ 雅各说：你今日把长子的名分卖给我罢。

³² 以扫说：我将要死，这长子的名分於我有甚麽益处呢？

³³ 雅各说：你今日对我起誓罢。以扫就对他起了誓，把长子的名分卖给雅各。

³⁴ 於是雅各将饼和红豆汤给了以扫，以扫吃了喝了，便起来走了。这就是以扫轻看了他长子的名分。

¹ "'You shall make for yourselves no idols, neither shall you raise up an engraved image or a pillar, neither shall you place any figured stone in your land, to bow down to it: for I am Yahweh your God.

² "'You shall keep my Sabbaths, and have reverence for my sanctuary. I am Yahweh.

³ "'If you walk in my statutes, and keep my commandments, and do them;

⁴ then I will give you your rains in their season, and the land shall yield its increase, and the trees of the field shall yield their fruit.

⁵ Your threshing shall reach to the vintage, and the vintage shall reach to the sowing time; and you shall eat your bread to the full, and dwell in your land safely.

⁶ "'I will give peace in the land, and you shall lie down, and no one will make you afraid; and I will remove evil animals out of the land, neither shall the sword go through your land.

⁷ You shall chase your enemies, and they shall fall before you by the sword.

⁸ Five of you shall chase a hundred, and a hundred of you shall chase ten thousand; and your enemies shall fall before you by the sword.

⁹ "'I will have respect for you, and make you fruitful, and multiply you, and will establish my covenant with you.

¹⁰ You shall eat old store long kept, and you shall move out the old because of the new.

¹¹ I will set my tent among you: and my soul won't abhor you.

¹² I will walk among you, and will be your God, and you will be my people.

¹³ I am Yahweh your God, who brought you forth out of the land of Egypt, that you should not be their slaves; and I have broken the bars of your yoke, and made you go upright.

¹⁴ "'But if you will not listen to me, and will not do all these commandments;

¹⁵ and if you shall reject my statutes, and if your soul abhors my ordinances, so that you will not do all my commandments, but break my covenant;

¹⁶ I also will do this to you: I will appoint terror over you, even consumption and fever, that shall consume the eyes, and make the soul to pine away; and you will sow your seed in vain, for your enemies will eat it.

¹⁷ I will set my face against you, and you will be struck before your enemies. Those who hate you will rule over you; and you will flee when no one pursues you.

¹⁸ "'If you in spite of these things will not listen to me, then I will chastise you seven times more for your sins.

¹⁹ I will break the pride of your power, and I will make your sky like iron, and your soil like brass;

²⁰ and your strength will be spent in vain; for your land won't yield its increase, neither will the trees of the land yield their fruit.

²¹ "'If you walk contrary to me, and won't listen to me, then I will bring seven times more plagues on you according to your sins.

²² I will send the wild animals among you, which will rob you of your children, destroy your livestock, and make you few in number; and your roads will become desolate.

²³ "'If by these things you won't be reformed to me, but will walk contrary to me;

²⁴ then I will also walk contrary to you; and I will strike you, even I, seven times for your sins.

²⁵ I will bring a sword upon you, that will execute the vengeance of the covenant; and you will be gathered together within your cities: and I will send the pestilence among you; and you will be delivered into the hand of the enemy.

²⁶ When I break your staff of bread, ten women shall bake your bread in one oven, and they shall deliver your bread again by weight: and you shall eat, and not be satisfied.

²⁷ "'If you in spite of this won't listen to me, but walk contrary to me;

²⁸ then I will walk contrary to you in wrath; and I also will chastise you seven times for your sins.

²⁹ You will eat the flesh of your sons, and you will eat the flesh of your daughters.

³⁰ I will destroy your high places, and cut down your incense altars, and cast your dead bodies upon the bodies of your idols; and my soul will abhor you.

³¹ I will lay your cities waste, and will bring your sanctuaries to desolation, and I will not take delight in the sweet fragrance of your offerings.

³² I will bring the land into desolation; and your enemies that dwell therein will be astonished at it.

³³ I will scatter you among the nations, and I will draw out the sword after you: and your land will be a desolation, and your cities shall be a waste.

³⁴ Then the land will enjoy its sabbaths as long as it lies desolate and you are in your enemies' land. Even then the land will rest and enjoy its sabbaths.

³⁵ As long as it lies desolate it shall have rest, even the rest which it didn't have in your sabbaths, when you lived on it.

³⁶ "'As for those of you who are left, I will send a faintness into their hearts in the lands of their enemies: and the sound of a driven leaf will put them to flight; and they shall flee, as one flees from the sword; and they will fall when no one pursues.

³⁷ They will stumble over one another, as it were before the sword, when no one pursues: and you will have no power to stand before your enemies.

³⁸ You will perish among the nations, and the land of your enemies will eat you up.

³⁹ Those of you who are left will pine away in their iniquity in your enemies' lands; and also in the iniquities of their fathers shall they pine away with them.

⁴⁰ "'If they confess their iniquity, and the iniquity of their fathers, in their trespass which they trespassed against me, and also that, because they walked contrary to me,

⁴¹ I also walked contrary to them, and brought them into the land of their enemies: if then their uncircumcised heart is humbled, and they then accept the punishment of their iniquity;

⁴² then I will remember my covenant with Jacob; and also my covenant with Isaac, and also my covenant with Abraham; and I will remember the land.

⁴³ The land also will be left by them, and will enjoy its sabbaths while it lies desolate without them: and they will accept the punishment of their iniquity; because, even because they rejected my ordinances, and their soul abhorred my statutes.

⁴⁴ Yet for all that, when they are in the land of their enemies, I will not reject them, neither will I abhor them, to destroy them utterly, and to break my covenant with them; for I am Yahweh their God;

⁴⁵ but I will for their sake remember the covenant of their ancestors, whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt in the sight of the nations, that I might be their God. I am Yahweh.'"

⁴⁶ These are the statutes, ordinances and laws, which Yahweh made between him and the children of Israel in Mount Sinai by Moses.
