³⁴ And when Jobab was dead, Husam of the land of the Themanites reigned in his stead.

³⁵ And after his death, Adad the son of Badad reigned in his stead, who defeated the Madianites in the country of Moab: and the name of his city was Avith.

³⁶ And when Adad was dead, there reigned in his stead, Semla of Masreca.

⁵ And Abraham gave all his possessions to Isaac.

⁶ And to the children of the concubines he gave gifts, and separated them from Isaac his son, while he yet lived, to the east country.

⁷ And the days of Abraham's life were a hundred and seventy-five years.

⁸ And decaying he died in a good old age, and having lived a long time, and being full of days: and was gathered to his people.

⁹ And Isaac and Ismael his sons buried him in the double cave, which was situated in the field of Ephron the son of Seor the Hethite, over against Mambre;

¹⁰ Which he had bought of the children of Heth: there was he buried, and Sara his wife.

¹¹ And after his death, God blessed Isaac his son, who dwelt by the well named Of the living and seeing.

¹² These are the generations of Ismael the son of Abraham, whom Agar the Egyptian, Sara's servant, bore unto him:

¹³ And these are the names of his children according to their calling and generations. The firstborn of Ismael was Nabajoth, then Cedar, and Adbeel, and Mabsam.

¹⁴ And Masma, and Duma, and Massa,

¹⁸ And he dwelt from Hevila as far as Sur, which looketh towards Egypt, to them that go towards the Assyrians. He died in the presence of all his brethren.

¹⁹ These also are the generations of Isaac the son of Abraham: Abraham begot Isaac:

²⁰ Who when he was forty years old, took to wife Rebecca the daughter of Bathuel the Syrian of Mesopotamia, sister to Laban.

²¹ And Isaac besought the Lord for his wife, because she was barren; and he heard him, and made Rebecca to conceive.

²² But the children struggled in her womb: and she said: If it were to be so with me, what need was there to conceive? And she went to consult the Lord.

²³ And he answering said: Two nations are in thy womb, and Two peoples shall be divided out of thy womb, and one people shall overcome the other, and the elder shall serve the younger.

²⁴ And when her time was come to be delivered, behold twins were found in her womb.

²⁵ He that came forth first was red, and hairy like a skin: and his name was called Esau. Immediately the other coming forth, held his brother's foot in his hand, and therefore he was called Jacob.

²⁶ Isaac was threescore years old when the children were born unto him.

²⁷ And when they were grown up, Esau became a skillful hunter, and a husbandman, but Jacob a plain man dwelt in tents.

²⁸ Isaac loved Esau, because he ate of his hunting: and Rebecca loved Jacob.

²⁹ And Jacob boiled Pottage: to whom Esau, coming faint out of the field,

³⁰ Said: Give me of this red pottage, for I am exceeding faint. For which reason his name was called Edom.

³¹ And Jacob said to him: Sell me thy first birthright.

³² He answered: Lo I die, what will the first birthright avail me.

³³ Jacob said: Swear therefore to me. Esau swore to him, and sold his first birthright.

³⁴ And so taking bread and the pottage of lentils, he ate, and drank, and went his way; making little account of having sold his first birthright.
