Genesis 25
1 Now Abraham had taken another wife, named Keturah,
Abraham vero aliam duxit uxorem nomine Ceturam:
2 and she bore him Zimran, Jokshan, Medan, Midian, Ishbak, and Shuah.
quæ peperit ei Zamran et Iecsan, et Madam, et Madian, et Iesboc, et Sue.
3 Jokshan was the father of Sheba and Dedan. And the sons of Dedan were the Asshurites, the Letushites, and the Leummites.
Iecsan quoque genuit Saba, et Dadan. Filii Dadan fuerunt Assurim, et Latusim, et Loomin.
4 The sons of Midian were Ephah, Epher, Hanoch, Abida, and Eldaah. All these were descendants of Keturah.
At vero ex Madian ortus est Epha, et Opher, et Henoch, et Abida, et Eldaa: omnes hi filii Ceturæ.
5 Abraham left everything he owned to Isaac.
Deditque Abraham cuncta quæ possederat, Isaac:
6 But while he was still alive, Abraham gave gifts to the sons of his concubines and sent them away from his son Isaac to the land of the east.
filiis autem concubinarum largitus est munera, et separavit eos ab Isaac filio suo, dum adhuc ipse viveret, ad plagam orientalem.
7 Abraham lived a total of 175 years.
Fuerunt autem dies vitæ Abrahæ, centum septuaginta quinque anni.
8 And at a ripe old age he breathed his last and died, old and contented, and was gathered to his people.
Et deficiens mortuus est in senectute bona, provectæque ætatis, et plenus dierum: congregatusque est ad populum suum.
9 His sons Isaac and Ishmael buried him in the cave of Machpelah near Mamre, in the field of Ephron son of Zohar the Hittite.
Et sepelierunt eum Isaac et Ismael filii sui in spelunca duplici, quæ sita est in agro Ephron filii Seor Hethæi, e regione Mambre,
10 This was the field that Abraham had bought from the Hittites. Abraham was buried there with his wife Sarah.
quem emerat a filiis Heth: ibi sepultus est ipse, et Sara uxor eius.
11 After Abraham’s death, God blessed his son Isaac, who lived near Beer-lahai-roi.
Et post obitum illius benedixit Deus Isaac filio eius, qui habitabat iuxta puteum nomine Viventis et videntis.
12 This is the account of Abraham’s son Ishmael, whom Hagar the Egyptian, Sarah’s maidservant, bore to Abraham.
Hæ sunt generationes Ismael filii Abrahæ, quem peperit ei Agar Ægyptia, famula Saræ: et
13 These are the names of the sons of Ishmael in the order of their birth: Nebaioth the firstborn of Ishmael, then Kedar, Adbeel, Mibsam,
hæc nomina filiorum eius in vocabulis et generationibus suis. Primogenitus Ismaelis Nabaioth, deinde Cedar, et Adbeel, et Mabsam,
14 Mishma, Dumah, Massa,
Masma quoque, et Duma, et Massa,
15 Hadad, Tema, Jetur, Naphish, and Kedemah.
Hadar, et Thema, et Iethur, et Naphis, et Cedma.
16 These were the sons of Ishmael, and these were their names by their villages and encampments—twelve princes of their tribes.
Isti sunt filii Ismaelis: et hæc nomina per castella et oppida eorum, duodecim principes tribuum suarum.
17 Ishmael lived a total of 137 years. Then he breathed his last and died, and was gathered to his people.
Et facti sunt anni vitæ Ismaelis centum triginta septem, deficiensque mortuus est, et appositus ad populum suum.
18 Ishmael’s descendants settled from Havilah to Shur, which is near the border of Egypt as you go toward Asshur. And they lived in hostility toward all their brothers.
Habitavit autem ab Hevila usque Sur, quæ respicit Ægyptum introeuntibus Assyrios. coram cunctis fratribus suis obiit.
19 This is the account of Abraham’s son Isaac. Abraham became the father of Isaac,
Hæ quoque sunt generationes Isaac filii Abraham: Abraham genuit Isaac:
20 and Isaac was forty years old when he married Rebekah, the daughter of Bethuel the Aramean from Paddan-aram and the sister of Laban the Aramean.
qui cum quadraginta esset annorum, duxit uxorem Rebeccam filiam Bathuelis Syri de Mesopotamia, sororem Laban.
21 Later, Isaac prayed to the LORD on behalf of his wife, because she was barren. And the LORD heard his prayer, and his wife Rebekah conceived.
Deprecatusque est Isaac Dominum pro uxore sua, eo quod esset sterilis: qui exaudivit eum, et dedit conceptum Rebeccæ.
22 But the children inside her struggled with each other, and she said, “Why is this happening to me?” So Rebekah went to inquire of the LORD,
Sed collidebantur in utero eius parvuli; quæ ait: Si sic mihi futurum erat, quid necesse fuit concipere? Perrexitque ut consuleret Dominum.
23 and He declared to her: “Two nations are in your womb, and two peoples from within you will be separated; one people will be stronger than the other, and the older will serve the younger.”
Qui respondens, ait: Duæ gentes sunt in utero tuo, et duo populi ex ventre tuo dividentur, populusque populum superabit, et maior serviet minori.
24 When her time came to give birth, there were indeed twins in her womb.
Iam tempus pariendi advenerat, et ecce gemini in utero eius reperti sunt.
25 The first one came out red, covered with hair like a fur coat; so they named him Esau.
Qui prior egressus est, rufus erat, et totus in morem pellis hispidus: vocatumque est nomen eius Esau. Protinus alter egrediens, plantam fratris tenebat manu: et idcirco appellavit eum Iacob.
26 After this, his brother came out grasping Esau’s heel; so he was named Jacob. And Isaac was sixty years old when the twins were born.
Sexagenarius erat Isaac quando nati sunt ei parvuli.
27 When the boys grew up, Esau became a skillful hunter, a man of the field, while Jacob was a quiet man who stayed at home.
Quibus adultis, factus est Esau vir gnarus venandi, et homo agricola: Iacob autem vir simplex habitabat in tabernaculis.
28 Because Isaac had a taste for wild game, he loved Esau; but Rebekah loved Jacob.
Isaac amabat Esau, eo quod de venationibus illius vesceretur: et Rebecca diligebat Iacob.
29 One day, while Jacob was cooking some stew, Esau came in from the field and was famished.
Coxit autem Iacob pulmentum: ad quem cum venisset Esau de agro lassus,
30 He said to Jacob, “Let me eat some of that red stew, for I am famished.” (That is why he was also called Edom.)
ait: Da mihi de coctione hac rufa, quia oppido lassus sum. Quam ob causam vocatum est nomen eius Edom.
31 “First sell me your birthright,” Jacob replied.
Cui dixit Iacob: Vende mihi primogenita tua.
32 “Look,” said Esau, “I am about to die, so what good is a birthright to me?”
Ille respondit: En morior, quid mihi proderunt primogenita?
33 “Swear to me first,” Jacob said. So Esau swore to Jacob and sold him the birthright.
Ait Iacob: Iura ergo mihi. Iuravit ei Esau, et vendidit primogenita.
34 Then Jacob gave some bread and lentil stew to Esau, who ate and drank and then got up and went away. Thus Esau despised his birthright.
Et sic accepto pane et lentis edulio, comedit, et bibit, et abiit; parvipendens quod primogenita vendidisset.
