1And AbrahamH85 tookH3947 anotherH3254 wifeH802, and herH3947 nameH8034 was KeturahH6989. 2And she bare him ZimranH2175, and JokshanH3370, and MedanH4091, and MidianH4080, and IshbakH3435, and ShuahH7744. 3And JokshanH3370 begat ShebaH7614, and DedanH1719. And the sonsH1121 of DedanH1719 were Asshurim, and LetushimH3912, and LeummimH3817. 4And the sonsH1121 of MidianH4080; EphahH5891, and EpherH6081, and HanochH2585, and AbidaH28, and EldaahH420. AllH3605 theseH428 were the childrenH1121 of KeturahH6989. 5And AbrahamH85 gaveH5414 allH3605 that he had unto IsaacH3327. 6But unto the sonsH1121 of the concubinesH6370, whichH834 AbrahamH85 had, AbrahamH85 gaveH5414 giftsH4979; and he sentH7971 them awayH7971 from IsaacH3327 his sonH1121, whileH5750 he yet livedH2416, eastwardH6924, unto the eastH6924 countryH776. 7And theseH428 are the daysH3117 of the yearsH8141 of Abraham’sH85 lifeH3117 whichH834 he livedH2416, an hundredH3967 threescore and fifteen yearsH8141. 8And AbrahamH85 gave upH413 the ghost, and diedH4191 in a goodH2896 oldH2205 ageH7872, an oldH2205 manH2205, and fullH7649 of yearsH7872; and was gatheredH622 to his peopleH5971. 9And IsaacH3327 and IshmaelH3458 his sonsH1121 buriedH6912 him in the caveH4631 of MachpelahH4375, in the fieldH7704 of EphronH6085 the sonH1121 of ZoharH6714 the HittiteH2850, whichH834 is beforeH6440 MamreH4471; 10the fieldH7704 whichH834 AbrahamH85 purchasedH7069 of the childrenH1121 of HethH2845: there was AbrahamH85 buriedH6912, and SarahH8283 his wifeH802. 11And it cameH1961 to passH1961 afterH310 the deathH4194 of AbrahamH85, that GodH430 blessedH1288 IsaacH3327 his sonH1121; and IsaacH3327 dweltH3427 by Beer-lahai-roiH883. 12Now theseH428 are the generationsH8435 of IshmaelH3458, Abraham’sH85 sonH1121, whomH834 HagarH1904 the EgyptianH4713, Sarah’sH8283 handmaid, bare unto AbrahamH85: 13and theseH428 are the namesH8034 of the sonsH1121 of IshmaelH3458, by their namesH8034, according to their generationsH8435: the firstbornH1060 of IshmaelH3458, NebaiothH5032; and KedarH6938, and AdbeelH110, and MibsamH4017, 14and MishmaH4927, and DumahH1746, and MassaH4854; 15HadadH2301, and TemaH8485, JeturH3195, NaphishH5305, and KedemahH6929: 16theseH428 are the sonsH1121 of IshmaelH3458, and theseH428 are their namesH8034, by their villages, and by their encampmentsH2918; twelveH6240 princesH5387 according to their nations. 17And theseH428 are the yearsH8141 of the lifeH2416 of IshmaelH3458, an hundredH3967 and thirtyH7970 and sevenH7651 yearsH8141: and he gave upH413 the ghost and diedH4191; and was gatheredH622 unto his peopleH5971. 18And they dweltH7931 from HavilahH2341 unto ShurH7793 that is beforeH6440 EgyptH4714, as thou goest towardH5921 AssyriaH804: he abode in the presenceH6440 of allH3605 his brethrenH251. 19And theseH428 are the generationsH8435 of IsaacH3327, Abraham’sH85 sonH1121: AbrahamH85 begat IsaacH3327: 20and IsaacH3327 was fortyH705 yearsH8141 oldH1121 when he tookH3947 RebekahH7259, the daughterH1323 of BethuelH1328 the SyrianH761 of Paddan-aramH6307, the sisterH269 of LabanH3837 the SyrianH761, to be his wifeH802. 21And IsaacH3327 entreatedH6279 the LORDH3068 for his wifeH802, becauseH3588 sheH1931 was barrenH6135: and the LORDH3068 was entreatedH6279 of him, and RebekahH7259 his wifeH802 conceivedH2029. 22And the childrenH1121 struggledH7533 togetherH7533 withinH7130 herH518; and sheH518 saidH559, IfH518 it be soH3651, wherefore doH4100 I liveH7130? And sheH518 went to inquireH1875 of the LORDH3068. 23And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto herH559, TwoH8147 nationsH1471 are in thy wombH990, And twoH8147 peoplesH3816 shall be separatedH6504 even from thy bowelsH4578: And the one peopleH1471 shall be strongerH553 thanH7227 the otherH8147 peopleH1471; And the elder shall serveH5647 the youngerH6810. 24And when herH4390 daysH3117 to be deliveredH3205 were fulfilledH4390, beholdH2009, there were twinsH8380 in herH4390 wombH990. 25And the firstH7223 cameH3318 forthH3318 redH132, allH3605 over like an hairyH8181 garmentH155; and they calledH7121 his nameH8034 EsauH6215. 26And afterH310 that cameH3318 forthH3318 his brotherH251, and his handH3027 had holdH270 on Esau’sH6215 heelH6119; and his nameH8034 was calledH7121 JacobH3290: and IsaacH3327 was threescore yearsH8141 oldH1121 when sheH7121 bare them. 27And the boysH5288 grewH1431: and EsauH6215 was a cunning hunterH6718, a manH376 of the fieldH7704; and JacobH3290 was a plain manH376, dwellingH3427 in tentsH168. 28NowH3588 IsaacH3327 lovedH157 EsauH6215, becauseH3588 he did eat of his venison: and RebekahH7259 lovedH157 JacobH3290. 29And JacobH3290 sod pottage: and EsauH6215 cameH935 in from the fieldH7704, and he was faintH5889: 30and EsauH6215 saidH559 to JacobH3290, Feed meH413, I prayH4994 thee, with that sameH2088 redH122 pottage; for I am faintH5889: therefore was his nameH8034 calledH7121 EdomH123. 31And JacobH3290 saidH559, SellH4376 meH4376 this dayH3117 thy birthrightH1062. 32And EsauH6215 saidH559, BeholdH2009, I am at the point to dieH4191: and whatH4100 profit shall the birthrightH1062 doH4100 to meH4191? 33And JacobH3290 saidH559, SwearH7650 to meH4376 this dayH3117; and he sware unto him: and he soldH4376 his birthrightH1062 unto JacobH3290. 34And JacobH3290 gaveH5414 EsauH6215 breadH3899 and pottage of lentilsH5742; and he did eatH398 and drinkH8354, and roseH6965 upH6965, and wentH6965 his way: soH5414 EsauH6215 despisedH959 his birthrightH1062.
