¹ Abraham pak opět pojal ženu jménem Ceturu.

² Kterážto porodila jemu Zamrana, a Jeksana, a Madana, a Madiana, Jezbocha a Suecha.

³ Jeksan potom zplodil Sábu a Dedana. Synové pak Dedanovi byli: Assurim, a Latuzim, a Laomim.

⁴ Ale synové Madianovi: Efa, a Efer, a Enoch, a Abida, a Helda; všickni ti synové byli Cetury.

⁵ I dal Abraham Izákovi všecko, což měl.

⁶ Synům pak ženin svých dal Abraham dary, a odeslal je od Izáka syna svého, ještě živ jsa, k východu do země východní.

⁷ Tito pak jsou dnové let života Abrahamova, v nichž byl živ: Sto sedmdesáte a pět let.

⁸ I skonal a umřel Abraham v starosti dobré, stár jsa a plný dnů; a připojen jest k lidu svému.

⁹ Tedy pochovali ho Izák a Izmael synové jeho v jeskyni Machpelah, na poli Efrona, syna Sohar Hetejského, naproti Mamre,

¹⁰ Na tom poli, kteréž byl koupil Abraham od synů Het; tu pochován jest Abraham i Sára manželka jeho.

¹¹ Po smrti pak Abrahamově požehnal Bůh Izákovi synu jeho, a bydlil Izák u studnice Živého vidoucího mne.

¹² Tito jsou pak rodové Izmaele syna Abrahamova, jehož porodila Agar Egyptská, děvka Sářina, Abrahamovi.

¹³ A tato jsou jména synů Izmaelových, jimiž se jmenují po rodech svých: Prvorozený Izmaelův Nabajot, po něm Cedar, a Adbeel a Mabsan,

¹⁴ A Masma, a Dumah a Massa,

¹⁵ Hadar a Tema, Jetur, Nafis a Cedma.

¹⁶ Ti jsou synové Izmaelovi, a ta jména jejich, po vsech jejich, a po městech jejich, dvanáctero knížat po čeledech jejich.

¹⁷ (Bylo pak života Izmaelova sto třidceti a sedm let, i skonal; a umřev, připojen jest k lidu svému.)

¹⁸ A bydlili od Hevilah až do Sur, jenž jest proti Egyptu, když jdeš do Assyrie; před tváří všech bratří svých položil se.

¹⁹ Tito jsou také rodové Izáka syna Abrahamova: Abraham zplodil Izáka.

²⁰ Byl pak Izák ve čtyřidcíti letech, když sobě vzal za manželku Rebeku, dceru Bathuele Syrského, z Pádan Syrské, sestru Lábana Syrského.

²¹ I modlil se Izák pokorně Hospodinu za manželku svou; nebo byla neplodná. A uslyšel jej Hospodin; a tak počala Rebeka manželka jeho.

²² A když se děti potiskali v životě jejím, řekla: Má-liť tak býti, proč jsem já počala? Šla tedy, aby se otázala Hospodina.

²³ I řekl jí Hospodin: Dva národové jsou v životě tvém, a dvůj lid z života tvého se rozdělí; lid pak jeden nad druhý bude silnější, a větší sloužiti bude menšímu.

²⁴ A když se naplnili dnové její, aby porodila, a aj, blíženci byli v životě jejím.

²⁵ I vyšel první ryšavý všecken, a jako oděv chlupatý; i nazvali jméno jeho Ezau.

²⁶ Potom pak vyšel bratr jeho, a rukou svou držel Ezau za patu; pročež nazváno jest jméno jeho Jákob. A byl Izák v šedesáti letech, když ona je porodila.

²⁷ A když dorostli ti děti, byl Ezau lovec umělý, chodě po polích; Jákob pak byl muž prostý a v staních bydlil.

²⁸ I byl Izák laskav na Ezau, proto že z lovu jeho míval pokrm; ale Rebeka laskava byla na Jákoba.

²⁹ Uvařil pak Jákob krmičku. Tedy Ezau přišel z pole zemdlený,

³⁰ A řekl Jákobovi: Dej mi, prosím, jísti krmě té červené, nebo jsem umdlel. (Protož nazváno jest jméno jeho Edom.)

³¹ Odpověděl Jákob: Prodej mi dnes hned prvorozenství své.

³² I řekl Ezau: Aj, já k smrti se blížím, k čemuž mi tedy to prvorozenství?

³³ Dí Jákob: Přisáhni mi dnes hned. I přisáhl mu, a prodal prvorozenství své Jákobovi.

³⁴ Tedy Jákob dal Ezauchovi chleba a té krmě z šocovice. Kterýžto jedl a pil, a vstav, odšel; a tak pohrdl Ezau prvorozenstvím.

¹ Abraham took another wife, and her name was Keturah.

² She bore him Zimran, Jokshan, Medan, Midian, Ishbak, and Shuah.

³ Jokshan became the father of Sheba, and Dedan. The sons of Dedan were Asshurim, Letushim, and Leummim.

⁴ The sons of Midian: Ephah, Epher, Hanoch, Abida, and Eldaah. All these were the children of Keturah.

⁵ Abraham gave all that he had to Isaac,

⁶ but to the sons of Abraham's concubines, Abraham gave gifts. He sent them away from Isaac his son, while he yet lived, eastward, to the east country.

⁷ These are the days of the years of Abraham's life which he lived: one hundred seventy-five years.

⁸ Abraham gave up the spirit, and died in a good old age, an old man, and full of years, and was gathered to his people.

⁹ 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 before Mamre,

¹⁰ the field which Abraham purchased of the children of Heth. Abraham was buried there with Sarah, his wife.

¹¹ It happened after the death of Abraham that God blessed Isaac, his son. Isaac lived by Beer Lahai Roi.

¹² Now this is the history of the generations of Ishmael, Abraham's son, whom Hagar the Egyptian, Sarah's handmaid, bore to Abraham.

¹³ These are the names of the sons of Ishmael, by their names, according to the order of their birth: the firstborn of Ishmael, Nebaioth, then Kedar, Adbeel, Mibsam,

¹⁴ Mishma, Dumah, Massa,

¹⁵ Hadad, Tema, Jetur, Naphish, and Kedemah.

¹⁶ These are the sons of Ishmael, and these are their names, by their villages, and by their encampments: twelve princes, according to their nations.

¹⁷ These are the years of the life of Ishmael: one hundred thirty-seven years. He gave up the spirit and died, and was gathered to his people.

¹⁸ They lived from Havilah to Shur that is before Egypt, as you go toward Assyria. He lived opposite all his relatives.

¹⁹ This is the history of the generations of Isaac, Abraham's son. Abraham became the father of Isaac.

²⁰ Isaac was forty years old when he took Rebekah, the daughter of Bethuel the Syrian of Paddan Aram, the sister of Laban the Syrian, to be his wife.

²¹ Isaac entreated Yahweh for his wife, because she was barren. Yahweh was entreated by him, and Rebekah his wife conceived.

²² The children struggled together within her. She said, "If it be so, why do I live?" She went to inquire of Yahweh.

²³ Yahweh said to her, "Two nations are in your womb. Two peoples will be separated from your body. The one people will be stronger than the other people. The elder will serve the younger."

²⁴ When her days to be delivered were fulfilled, behold, there were twins in her womb.

²⁵ The first came out red all over, like a hairy garment. They named him Esau.

²⁶ After that, his brother came out, and his hand had hold on Esau's heel. He was named Jacob. Isaac was sixty years old when she bore them.

²⁷ The boys grew. Esau was a skillful hunter, a man of the field. Jacob was a quiet man, living in tents.

²⁸ Now Isaac loved Esau, because he ate his venison. Rebekah loved Jacob.

²⁹ Jacob boiled stew. Esau came in from the field, and he was famished.

³⁰ Esau said to Jacob, "Please feed me with that same red stew, for I am famished." Therefore his name was called Edom.

³¹ Jacob said, "First, sell me your birthright."

³² Esau said, "Behold, I am about to die. What good is the birthright to me?"

³³ Jacob said, "Swear to me first." He swore to him. He sold his birthright to Jacob.

³⁴ Jacob gave Esau bread and stew of lentils. He ate and drank, rose up, and went his way. So Esau despised his birthright.
