< Genesis 25 >

1 Abraham took another wife, and her name was Keturah.
Abraham ni Keturah a yu lah bout a la.
2 She bore him Zimran, Jokshan, Medan, Midian, Ishbak, and Shuah.
Hote a yu ni Zimran, Jokshan, Medan, Midian, Ishbak hoi Shuah tinaw a khe.
3 Jokshan became the father of Sheba, and Dedan. The sons of Dedan were Asshurim, Letushim, and Leummim.
Jokshan ni capa Sheba hoi Dedan a sak. Dedan capanaw teh Asshurim, Lethushim hoi Leummim tinaw doeh.
4 The sons of Midian were Ephah, Epher, Hanoch, Abida, and Eldaah. All these were the children of Keturah.
Midian capanaw teh Ephah, Epher, Hanok, Abida hoi Eldaah tinaw doeh. Hetnaw pueng teh Keturah ca catounnaw lah ao.
5 Abraham gave all that he had to Isaac,
Abraham ni a tawn e pueng hah Isak a poe.
6 but Abraham gave gifts to the sons of Abraham’s concubines. While he still lived, he sent them away from Isaac his son, eastward, to the east country.
Hateiteh, Abraham ni a yu do hoi a sak e canaw teh poehno a poe. Ama a hring nah roeroe vah Isak koehoi kanîtholae ram lah a cei sak.
7 These are the days of the years of Abraham’s life which he lived: one hundred seventy-five years.
Abraham e a hringyung teh a kum 175 touh a pha.
8 Abraham gave up his spirit, and died at a good old age, an old man, and full of years, and was gathered to his people.
Abraham ni a hnukteng poung a kâha teh se kuep laihoi nget matong hoi kum rek kakueplah a due teh a hmaunawnghanaw koe vah a pakawp awh.
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 near Mamre,
A capa Isak hoi Ishmael ni Hit tami Zoar capa Ephron law dawk Mamre teng Makpelah talung kâko dawk a pakawp roi.
10 the field which Abraham purchased from the children of Heth. Abraham was buried there with Sarah, his wife.
Hote law teh Abraham ni Hetnaw koehoi a ran e doeh. Hote hmuen koe Abraham teh a yu Sarah koe a pakawp awh.
11 After the death of Abraham, God blessed Isaac, his son. Isaac lived by Beer Lahai Roi.
Abraham a due hnukkhu vah, Cathut ni Isak hah yawhawi a poe. Isak teh Beerlahairoi dawk kho a sak.
12 Now this is the history of the generations of Ishmael, Abraham’s son, whom Hagar the Egyptian, Sarah’s servant, bore to Abraham.
Het heh Abraham capa Ishmael, Sarah e a sannu, Izip tami Hagar ni Abraham hoi a khe roi e canaw doeh.
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,
Hetnaw heh min parui lahoi a catoun lahoi Ishmael capanaw e min lah ao. Ishmael capa camin teh Nebaioth doeh. A nawnghanaw teh Kedar, Adbeel, Mibsam tinaw doeh.
14 Mishma, Dumah, Massa,
Mishma, Dumah, Massa,
15 Hadad, Tema, Jetur, Naphish, and Kedemah.
Hadad, Tema, Jetur, Naphish hoi Kedemah tinaw doeh.
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.
Hotnaw teh Ishmael capanaw lah ao teh amamouh hoi kho hoi a roenae patetlah a min a thut awh. A miphun parui lah bawi hlaikahni touh ao.
17 These are the years of the life of Ishmael: one hundred thirty-seven years. He gave up his spirit and died, and was gathered to his people.
Ishmael a dam nathung a kum teh 137 touh a pha. A hnuktengpoung e a kâha a phout teh a due. A hmaunawnghanaw koevah a pakawp awh.
18 They lived from Havilah to Shur that is before Egypt, as you go toward Assyria. He lived opposite all his relatives.
Ahnimouh teh Havilah ram koehoi Assyria ram pâtam hoi Izip ram teng Shur totouh kho a sak awh. A hmaunawnghanaw e hmaitung vah a due.
19 This is the history of the generations of Isaac, Abraham’s son. Abraham became the father of Isaac.
Abraham e capa Isak e catounnaw teh hettelah ao. Abraham ni a capa Isak a khe teh,
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.
Isak ni Paddanaram ram e Syria tami Bethuel canu, Syria tami Laban e a tawncanu Rebekah a yu lah a la nah a kum 40 touh a pha.
21 Isaac entreated the LORD for his wife, because she was barren. The LORD was entreated by him, and Rebekah his wife conceived.
A yu teh carôe dawk BAWIPA koevah pou a hei teh BAWIPA ni a heinae teh a thai pouh dawkvah Rebekah teh camo a vawn.
22 The children struggled together within her. She said, “If it is like this, why do I live?” She went to inquire of the LORD.
Camo a vawn e teh a thung vah pou a kâthe dawkvah, ahni ni hettelah awm rah pawiteh, bangkongmaw kahring rah telah ati. Hatdawkvah, BAWIPA koe pacei hanlah a cei.
23 The LORD 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.”
BAWIPA ni camo im dawk miphun kahni touh ao. Na von thung hoi miphun kahni touh kâkapek han. Miphun buet touh e teh buet touh e hlak a thayoun han. Hahoi, a hmau ni a nawngha e thaw a tawk pouh han telah ati.
24 When her days to be delivered were fulfilled, behold, there were twins in her womb.
Hottelah camo khenae tueng a pha toteh, camo im dawk ca samphei e ao.
25 The first came out red all over, like a hairy garment. They named him Esau.
Hmaloe e teh ka palingphung lahoi a tâco. Hni muen patetlah a muen puk a tho teh a min lah Esaw telah a phung.
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.
Hathnukkhu hoi, a nawngha teh Esaw e khokpaimai kuet lahoi a tâco. Hatdawkvah, a min lah Jakop telah a phung. Rebekah ni ahni a khe nah Isak teh a kum 60 touh a pha.
27 The boys grew. Esau was a skillful hunter, a man of the field. Jacob was a quiet man, living in tents.
Camo roi a roung teh, Esaw teh moi ka ka thai poung e samram pou ka cet tami lah ao. Hateiteh, Jakop teh kâkamuete lah ao dawk im vah ao.
28 Now Isaac loved Esau, because he ate his venison. Rebekah loved Jacob.
Isak teh Esaw ni a thokhai e moi ouk a ca dawkvah, Esaw hah a lungpataw. Hateiteh, Rebekah ni teh Jakop hah a lungpataw.
29 Jacob boiled stew. Esau came in from the field, and he was famished.
Jakop ni rawca a thawng teh, Esaw teh kahrawng hoi a tho nah a vonhlam ni a khaw teh ngawt a tawn dawkvah,
30 Esau said to Jacob, “Please feed me with some of that red stew, for I am famished.” Therefore his name was called Edom.
Esaw ni Jakop koevah, pahren lahoi na thawng e rawca hah na cat sak haw. Bangkongtetpawiteh, ka vonhlam ni na khaw toe telah atipouh. Hat dawk nahoehmaw min teh Edom telah ati.
31 Jacob said, “First, sell me your birthright.”
Hateiteh, Jakop ni camin coungnae hah hmaloe lah na ran sak telah atipouh.
32 Esau said, “Behold, I am about to die. What good is the birthright to me?”
Esaw ni khenhaw! kai teh meimei ka due toe, camin coungnae teh kai hanlah bangmaw cungkei han telah ati.
33 Jacob said, “Swear to me first.” He swore to him. He sold his birthright to Jacob.
Jakop ni, kai koevah hmaloe thoekâbo ei, telah atipouh. Jakop koe thoe a kâbo teh a camin coungnae hah a yo.
34 Jacob gave Esau bread and lentil stew. He ate and drank, rose up, and went his way. So Esau despised his birthright.
Jakop ni Esaw teh vaiyei hoi rawca a thawng e hah a poe. Hottelah, a canei hnukkhu vah a tâco teh a cei. Hot patetlah Esaw ni camin coungnae hah banglahai noutna hoeh.
