MLV(i)
1 And Abraham took another wife and her name was Keturah.
2 And she bore him Zimran and Jokshan and Medan and Midian and Ishbak and Shuah.
3 And Jokshan fathered Sheba and Dedan. And the sons of Dedan were Asshurim and Letushim and Leummim.
4 And the sons of Midian were : Ephah and Epher and Hanoch and Abida and Eldaah. All these were the sons of Keturah.
5 And Abraham gave all that he had to Isaac. 6 But to the sons of the concubines that Abraham had, Abraham gave gifts. And he sent them away eastward from Isaac his son, while he yet lived to the east country.
7 And these are the days of the years of Abraham's life which he lived, a hundred seventy-five years. 8 And 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 And 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 from the sons of Heth. There Abraham was buried and Sarah his wife. 11 And it happened after the death of Abraham, that God blessed Isaac his son. And Isaac dwelt by Beer-lahai-roi
12 Now these are the genealogies of Ishmael, Abraham's son, whom Hagar the Egyptian, Sarah's handmaid, bore to Abraham. 13 And these are the names of the sons of Ishmael, by their names, according to their genealogy: Nebaioth the firstborn of Ishmael and Kedar and Adbeel and Mibsam, 14 and Mishma and Dumah and Massa, 15 Hadad and 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 And these are the years of the life of Ishmael, a hundred and thirty-seven years. And he gave up the spirit and died and was gathered to his people. 18 And they dwelt from Havilah to Shur which is before Egypt, as you go toward Assyria. He abode opposite all his brothers.
19 And these are the genealogies of Isaac, Abraham's son: Abraham fathered Isaac. 20 And Isaac was forty years old when he took Rebekah to be his wife, the daughter of Bethuel the Syrian of Paddan-aram, the sister of Laban the Syrian. 21 And Isaac entreated Jehovah for his wife, because she was barren. And Jehovah was entreated by him, and Rebekah his wife conceived.
22 And the children struggled together within her. And she said, If it is so, why am I this way? And she went to inquire of Jehovah.
23 And Jehovah said to her, Two nations are in your womb and two peoples will be separated from your guts. And the one people will be stronger than the other people. And the elder will serve the younger.
24 And when her days to be delivered were fulfilled, behold, there were twins in her womb. 25 And the first came out red all over like a hairy garment and they called his name Esau. 26 And after that his brother came out and his hand had hold on Esau's heel and his name was called Jacob. And Isaac was sixty years old when she bore them.
27 And the boys grew. And Esau was a skillful hunter, a man of the field. And Jacob was a quiet man, dwelling in tents. 28 Now Isaac loved Esau, because he ate from his game. And Rebekah loved Jacob.
29 And Jacob boiled pottage. And Esau came in from the field and he was faint. 30 And Esau said to Jacob, I beseech you, feed me with that same red pottage, because I am faint. Therefore his name was called Edom.
31 And Jacob said, First sell me your birthright. 32 And Esau said, Behold, I am about to die and what profit will the birthright do to me? 33 And Jacob said, Swear to me first. And he swore to him and he sold his birthright to Jacob. 34 And Jacob gave Esau bread and pottage of lentils. And he ate and drank and rose up and went his way. So Esau despised his birthright.
5 And Abraham gave all that he had to Isaac. 6 But to the sons of the concubines that Abraham had, Abraham gave gifts. And he sent them away eastward from Isaac his son, while he yet lived to the east country.
