Genesis 25
1 And Abraham took another wife, and her name was Keturah.
Abraham menikah lagi dengan seorang wanita yang bernama Ketura.
2 And she bore him Zimran, and Jokshan, and Medan, and Midian, and Ishbak, and Shuah.
Istrinya itu melahirkan anak-anak yang bernama: Zimran, Yoksan, Medan, Midian, Isybak, dan Suah.
3 And Jokshan begot Sheba, and Dedan. And the sons of Dedan were Asshurim, and Letushim, and Leummim.
Yoksan ayah Syeba dan Dedan, dan keturunan Dedan ialah orang Asyur, orang Letus, dan orang Leum.
4 And the sons of Midian: Ephah, and Epher, and Hanoch, and Abida, and Eldaah. All these were the sons of Keturah.
Anak-anak Midian ialah: Efa, Efer, Henokh, Abida, dan Eldaa. Mereka semuanya keturunan Ketura.
5 And Abraham gave all that he had to Isaac.
Walaupun Abraham mewariskan segala harta bendanya kepada Ishak,
6 But to the sons of the concubines, that Abraham had, Abraham gave gifts. And he sent them away from Isaac his son, while he yet lived, eastward, to the east country.
semasa hidupnya ia memberikan banyak hadiah kepada anak-anak yang diperolehnya dari istri-istrinya yang lain. Kemudian disuruhnya anak-anak itu pindah ke daerah di sebelah timur Kanaan, supaya menjauhi Ishak anaknya.
7 And these are the days of the years of Abraham's life which he lived, a hundred seventy-five years.
Abraham meninggal pada usia yang lanjut, yaitu 175 tahun.
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,
Ia dikuburkan oleh anak-anaknya, yaitu Ishak dan Ismael, di Gua Makhpela yang terletak di ladang sebelah timur Mamre. Dahulu ladang itu milik Efron anak Zohar, orang Het,
10 the field which Abraham purchased from the sons of Heth. There Abraham was buried, and Sarah his wife.
tetapi sudah dibeli oleh Abraham dari orang Het itu. Sara, istri Abraham, juga dikuburkan di sana.
11 And it came to pass after the death of Abraham, that God blessed Isaac his son. And Isaac dwelt by Beer-lahai-roi.
Setelah Abraham meninggal, Allah memberkati Ishak, anak Abraham. Pada waktu itu Ishak tinggal di dekat sumur yang disebut "Dia Yang Memperhatikan Aku".
12 Now these are the generations of Ishmael, Abraham's son, whom Hagar the Egyptian, Sarah's handmaid, bore to Abraham.
Ismael adalah anak Abraham dan Hagar, wanita Mesir, hamba Sara itu.
13 And these are the names of the sons of Ishmael, by their names, according to their generations: the firstborn of Ishmael, Nebaioth, and Kedar, and Adbeel, and Mibsam,
Ismael mempunyai dua belas anak yang disebutkan di sini menurut urutan lahirnya: Nebayot, Kedar, Adbeel, Mibsam, Misyma, Duma, Masa, Hadad, Tema, Yetur, Nafis dan Kedma. Anak-anak itu menjadi bapak leluhur dua belas suku bangsa, dan desa dan perkemahan mereka disebut menurut nama-nama mereka.
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.
Ismael berumur 137 tahun ketika ia meninggal.
18 And they dwelt from Havilah to Shur which is before Egypt, as thou go toward Assyria. He abode opposite all his brothers.
Keturunannya tinggal di daerah antara Hawila dan Syur di sebelah timur Mesir ke arah Asyur. Mereka hidup terpisah dari keturunan Abraham yang lain.
19 And these are the generations of Isaac, Abraham's son: Abraham begot Isaac.
Inilah riwayat Ishak, anak Abraham.
20 And 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.
Ishak berumur empat puluh tahun ketika ia menikah dengan Ribka, adik Laban, anak Betuel, seorang Aram dari Mesopotamia.
21 And Isaac entreated Jehovah for his wife, because she was barren. And Jehovah was entreated by him, and Rebekah his wife conceived.
Karena Ribka tidak mendapat anak, Ishak berdoa kepada TUHAN untuk istrinya. Dan TUHAN mengabulkan doa Ishak, sehingga Ribka mengandung.
22 And the children struggled together within her. And she said, If it be so, why do I live? And she went to inquire of Jehovah.
Ia mengandung anak kembar, dan sebelum anak-anak itu lahir, mereka bergelut di dalam rahimnya. Kata Ribka, "Mengapa hal ini harus terjadi pada diriku?" Lalu ia memohon petunjuk kepada TUHAN.
23 And Jehovah said to her, Two nations are in thy womb, and two peoples shall be separated from thy bowels. And the one people shall be stronger than the other people. And the elder shall serve the younger.
TUHAN berkata kepadanya, "Dua bangsa ada di dalam rahimmu; kau akan melahirkan dua bangsa yang berseteru; adiknya lebih kuat dari kakaknya yang sulung melayani yang bungsu."
24 And when her days to be delivered were fulfilled, behold, there were twins in her womb.
Tibalah saatnya bagi Ribka untuk bersalin, dan ia melahirkan dua anak laki-laki kembar.
25 And the first came forth red all over like a hairy garment, and they called his name Esau.
Yang sulung warnanya kemerah-merahan, dan kulitnya seperti jubah yang berbulu. Sebab itu ia dinamakan Esau.
26 And after that his brother came forth, 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.
Waktu anak yang kedua dilahirkan, tangannya memegang tumit Esau. Sebab itu ia dinamakan Yakub. Ishak berumur enam puluh tahun pada waktu mereka lahir.
27 And the boys grew. And Esau was a skilful hunter, a man of the field. And Jacob was a quiet man, dwelling in tents.
Kedua anak itu bertambah besar. Esau menjadi pemburu yang cakap dan suka tinggal di padang, tetapi Yakub bersifat tenang dan suka tinggal di rumah.
28 Now Isaac loved Esau, because he ate of his venison. And Rebekah loved Jacob.
Ishak lebih sayang kepada Esau, sebab Ishak suka makan daging buruan. Tetapi Ribka lebih sayang kepada Yakub.
29 And Jacob boiled pottage. And Esau came in from the field, and he was faint.
Pada suatu hari ketika Yakub sedang memasak sayur kacang merah, datanglah Esau dari perburuannya. Ia lapar.
30 And Esau said to Jacob, Feed me, I pray thee, with that same red pottage, for I am faint. Therefore his name was called Edom.
Katanya kepada Yakub, "Saya lapar sekali. Minta sedikit kacang merah itu." (Itulah sebabnya ia disebut Edom.)
31 And Jacob said, First sell me thy birthright.
Jawab Yakub, "Baik, asal kauberikan lebih dahulu hakmu sebagai anak sulung."
32 And Esau said, Behold, I am about to die, and what profit shall the birthright do to me?
Kata Esau, "Peduli apa hak itu bagi saya. Saya lapar setengah mati!"
33 And Jacob said, Swear to me first. And he swore to him, and he sold his birthright to Jacob.
Kata Yakub pula, "Bersumpahlah dulu bahwa kauberikan hakmu kepada saya." Esau bersumpah dan memberi haknya kepada Yakub.
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.
Setelah itu Yakub memberi kepadanya roti dan sebagian dari sayur kacang merah itu. Esau makan dan minum lalu pergi. Demikianlah Esau meremehkan haknya sebagai anak sulung.
