¹ 亞伯拉罕又娶了一妻，名叫基土拉。

² 基土拉給他生了心蘭、約珊、米但、米甸、伊施巴，和書亞。

³ 約珊生了示巴和底但。底但的子孫是亞書利族、利都是族，和利烏米族。

⁴ 米甸的兒子是以法、以弗、哈諾、亞比大，和以勒大。這都是基土拉的子孫。

⁵ 亞伯拉罕將一切所有的都給了以撒。

⁶ 亞伯拉罕把財物分給他庶出的眾子，趁著自己還在世的時候打發他們離開他的兒子以撒，往東方去。

⁷ 亞伯拉罕一生的年日是一百七十五歲。

⁸ 亞伯拉罕壽高年邁，氣絕而死，歸到他列祖(原文作本民)那裡。

⁹ 他兩個兒子以撒、以實瑪利把他埋葬在麥比拉洞裡。這洞在幔利前、赫人瑣轄的兒子以弗崙的田中，

¹⁰ 就是亞伯拉罕向赫人買的那塊田。亞伯拉罕和他妻子撒拉都葬在那裡。

¹¹ 亞伯拉罕死了以後，神賜福給他的兒子以撒。以撒靠近庇耳拉海萊居住。

¹² 撒拉的使女埃及人夏甲給亞伯拉罕所生的兒子是以實瑪利。

¹³ 以實瑪利兒子們的名字，按著他們的家譜記在下面。以實瑪利的長子是尼拜約，又有基達、亞德別、米比衫、

¹⁴ 米施瑪、度瑪、瑪撒、

¹⁵ 哈大、提瑪、伊突、拿非施、基底瑪。

¹⁶ 這是以實瑪利眾子的名字，照著他們的村莊、營寨，作了十二族的族長。

¹⁷ 以實瑪利享壽一百三十七歲，氣絕而死，歸到他列祖(原文作本民)那裡。

¹⁸ 他子孫的住處在他眾弟兄東邊，從哈腓拉直到埃及前的書珥，正在亞述的道上。

¹⁹ 亞伯拉罕的兒子以撒的後代記在下面。亞伯拉罕生以撒。

²⁰ 以撒娶利百加為妻的時候正四十歲。利百加是巴旦亞蘭地的亞蘭人彼土利的女兒，是亞蘭人拉班的妹子。

²¹ 以撒因他妻子不生育，就為他祈求耶和華；耶和華應允他的祈求，他的妻子利百加就懷了孕。

²² 孩子們在他腹中彼此相爭，他就說：若是這樣，我為甚麼活著呢(或作我為甚麼如此呢)？他就去求問耶和華。

²³ 耶和華對他說：兩國在你腹內；兩族要從你身上出來。這族必強於那族；將來大的要服事小的。

²⁴ 生產的日子到了，腹中果然是雙子。

²⁵ 先產的身體發紅，渾身有毛，如同皮衣，他們就給他起名叫以掃(就是有毛的意思)。

²⁶ 隨後又生了以掃的兄弟，手抓住以掃的腳跟，因此給他起名叫雅各(就是抓住的意思)。利百加生下兩個兒子的時候，以撒年正六十歲。

²⁷ 兩個孩子漸漸長大，以掃善於打獵，常在田野；雅各為人安靜，常住在帳棚裡。

²⁸ 以撒愛以掃，因為常吃他的野味；利百加卻愛雅各。

²⁹ 有一天，雅各熬湯，以掃從田野回來累昏了。

³⁰ 以掃對雅各說：我累昏了，求你把這紅湯給我喝。因此以掃又叫以東(就是紅的意思)。

³¹ 雅各說：你今日把長子的名分賣給我罷。

³² 以掃說：我將要死，這長子的名分於我有甚麼益處呢？

³³ 雅各說：你今日對我起誓罷。以掃就對他起了誓，把長子的名分賣給雅各。

³⁴ 於是雅各將餅和紅豆湯給了以掃，以掃吃了喝了，便起來走了。這就是以掃輕看了他長子的名分。

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.
