Genesis 25

1 Now Abraham had taken another wife, named Keturah,

Pea toe maʻu ʻe ʻEpalahame ʻae uaifi, ko hono hingoa ko Ketula.

2 and she bore him Zimran, Jokshan, Medan, Midian, Ishbak, and Shuah.

Pea ne fanauʻi kiate ia ʻa Similani, mo Sokesani, mo Metani mo Mitiani: mo ʻIsipaka, mo Suaa.

3 Jokshan was the father of Sheba and Dedan. And the sons of Dedan were the Asshurites, the Letushites, and the Leummites.

Pea naʻe fānau kia Sokesani ʻa Sipa mo Titani, pea ko e ngaahi foha ʻo Titani ko ʻAsuli, mo Litusi mo Leumi.

4 The sons of Midian were Ephah, Epher, Hanoch, Abida, and Eldaah. All these were descendants of Keturah.

Pea ko e ngaahi foha ʻo Mitiani: ko ʻEfaa, mo ʻEfee, mo Henoke, mo ʻApaita, mo Elitaa. Ko e ngaahi fānau eni ʻa Ketula.

5 Abraham left everything he owned to Isaac.

Pea naʻe foaki ʻe ʻEpalahame ʻene meʻa kotoa pē kia ʻAisake.

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.

Ka ko e ngaahi foha ʻo ʻEpalahame ʻi hono sinifu, naʻe ʻatu ki ai ʻe ʻEpalahame ʻae ngaahi foaki, pea ʻi heʻene kei moʻui naʻa ne fekau ke nau ʻalu ki he feituʻu hahake, koeʻuhi ke ʻataʻatā ʻo hono foha ko ʻAisake.

7 Abraham lived a total of 175 years.

Pea ko e ngaahi ʻaho ʻoe ngaahi taʻu naʻe moʻui ai ʻa ʻEpalahame, ko e taʻu ʻe teau mo e taʻu ʻe fitungofulu ma nima.

8 And at a ripe old age he breathed his last and died, old and contented, and was gathered to his people.

Pea naʻe tukuange ʻe ʻEpalahame hono laumālie, pea pekia ia ʻi he motuʻa lelei, ko e tangata motuʻa kuo aʻu; pea naʻe fakataha ia ki hono kakai.

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.

Pea naʻe tanu ia ʻe hono ongo foha ko ʻAisake mo ʻIsimeʻeli, ʻi he ʻana ʻi Makipila, ʻi he ngoue ʻa ʻEfilone, ko e foha ʻo Sohaʻa, ko e Heti, ʻaia ʻoku fehangai mo Mamili.

10 This was the field that Abraham had bought from the Hittites. Abraham was buried there with his wife Sarah.

Ko e ngoue ia naʻe fakatau ʻe ʻEpalahame mei he ngaahi foha ʻo Heti; naʻe tanu ʻi ai ʻa ʻEpalahame mo hono uaifi ko Sela.

11 After Abraham’s death, God blessed his son Isaac, who lived near Beer-lahai-roi.

Pea hili ʻae pekia ʻa ʻEpalahame, naʻe tāpuakiʻi ʻe he ʻOtua hono foha ko ʻAisake: pea naʻe nofo ʻa ʻAisake ʻo ofi ki he vaikeli ko Lehai-Loʻai.

12 This is the account of Abraham’s son Ishmael, whom Hagar the Egyptian, Sarah’s maidservant, bore to Abraham.

Pea ko e hako eni ʻo ʻIsimeʻeli, ko e foha ʻo ʻEpalahame, ʻaia naʻe fanauʻi kia ʻEpalahame ʻe Hekaʻā ko e ʻIsipite, ko e kaunanga ʻa Sela.

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,

Pea ko e hingoa eni ʻoe ngaahi foha ʻo ʻIsimeʻeli, ko honau hingoa ʻi honau ngaahi toʻutangata; ko e ʻuluaki ʻo ʻIsimeʻeli, ko Nepeoti; mo Keta, mo ʻAtieli, mo Mipisami,

14 Mishma, Dumah, Massa,

Mo Misima, mo Tumaʻā mo Masa:

15 Hadad, Tema, Jetur, Naphish, and Kedemah.

Ko Hetaʻa, mo Tima, mo Situa, mo Nefisi, mo Kitema.

16 These were the sons of Ishmael, and these were their names by their villages and encampments—twelve princes of their tribes.

Ko e ngaahi foha ia ʻo ʻIsimeʻeli, pea ko honau hingoa ia, ʻi honau ngaahi kolo, ʻi honau ngaahi fale: ko e ʻeiki ʻe toko hongofulu ma toko ua, ʻo fakatatau mo honau ngaahi puleʻanga.

17 Ishmael lived a total of 137 years. Then he breathed his last and died, and was gathered to his people.

Pea ko e ngaahi taʻu eni ʻoe moʻui ʻa ʻIsimeʻeli, ko e taʻu ʻe teau mo e tolungofulu ma fitu: pea tukuange ʻe ia hono laumālie, pea pekia ia, pea fakataha ia ki hono kakai.

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.

Pea naʻa nau nofo mei Havila ʻo aʻu ki Sua, ʻaia ʻoku ofi ki ʻIsipite, ʻi he hala ki ʻAsilia; pea naʻe pekia ia ʻi he ʻao ʻo hono ngaahi kāinga kotoa pē.

19 This is the account of Abraham’s son Isaac. Abraham became the father of Isaac,

Pea ko e hako eni ʻo ʻAisake ko e foha ʻo ʻEpalahame: naʻe fānau kia ʻEpalahame ʻa ʻAisake.

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.

Pea naʻe fāngofulu taʻu ʻae motuʻa ʻo ʻAisake, ʻi heʻene maʻu ʻa Lepeka ko hono uaifi, ko e ʻofefine ʻo Petueli, ko e Silia ʻa Petanalami, ko e tuofefine ʻo Lepani ko e Silia.

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.

Pea naʻe hūfia ʻe ʻAisake hono uaifi kia Sihova, he naʻe paʻa ia; pea tui kiate ia ʻa Sihova, pea feitama hono uaifi ko Lepeka.

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,

Pea naʻe fengaueʻi ʻae fānau ʻiate ia; pea pehē ʻe ia, “Kapau ʻoku moʻoni, ko e hā ʻoku ou pehē ai?” Pea ʻalu ia ke fehuʻi kia Sihova.

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.”

Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova kiate ia, “ʻOku ai ʻae puleʻanga ʻe ua ʻi ho manāva, pea ʻe mahuʻi mei ho manava ʻae kakai ʻe ua, ʻo taki taha hono anga; pea ʻe mālohi ʻae kakai ʻe taha ki he taha; pea ʻe tauhi ʻe he ʻuluaki ʻae kimui.”

24 When her time came to give birth, there were indeed twins in her womb.

Pea ʻi heʻene kakato hono ngaahi ʻaho ke fāʻele, pea vakai, naʻe ai ʻae māhanga ʻi hono manāva.

25 The first one came out red, covered with hair like a fur coat; so they named him Esau.

Pea fāʻele ʻae ʻuluaki kuo kulokula kotoa pē, ʻo hangē ha kofu fulufulu: pea ne nau ui hono hingoa ko ʻIsoa.

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.

Pea toki fāʻeleʻi hono tehina, pea naʻe puke ʻe hono nima ʻae mui vaʻe ʻo ʻIsoa; pea naʻe ui hono hingoa ko Sēkope; pea naʻe onongofulu taʻu ʻa ʻAisake ʻi he fanauʻi ʻakinaua.

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.

Pea tupu ʻae ongo tama: pea naʻe poto ʻa ʻIsoa ʻi he tuli manu, ko e tangata taka ʻuta; ka ko e tangata angamalūʻia ʻa Sēkope, pea naʻe nofo ia ʻi he ngaahi fale fehikitaki.

28 Because Isaac had a taste for wild game, he loved Esau; but Rebekah loved Jacob.

Pea ʻofa ʻa ʻAisake kia ʻIsoa, he naʻa ne kai ʻa ʻene kanoʻi manu, ka naʻe ʻofa ʻa Lepeka kia Sēkope.

29 One day, while Jacob was cooking some stew, Esau came in from the field and was famished.

Pea naʻe fei haka ʻa Sēkope; pea haʻu ʻa ʻIsoa mei he vao, pea kuo vaivai ia;

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.)

Pea pehē ʻe ʻIsoa kia Sēkope, “ʻOku ou kole kiate koe, ke ke fafanga au ʻaki ʻae lū kulokula na, he kuo u vaivai; ko ia naʻe ui ai hono hingoa, ko ʻItomi.”

31 “First sell me your birthright,” Jacob replied.

Pea pehēange ʻe Sēkope, Fakatau kiate au he ʻaho ni, ʻae ʻinasi ʻoe ʻuluaki foha.

32 “Look,” said Esau, “I am about to die, so what good is a birthright to me?”

Pea pehē ʻe ʻIsoa, “Vakai, kuo u teitei mate: pea ko e hā hono ʻaonga kiate au ʻoe ʻinasi ʻoe ʻuluaki foha?”

33 “Swear to me first,” Jacob said. So Esau swore to Jacob and sold him the birthright.

Pea pehēange ʻe Sēkope; “Fuakava mai kiate au he ʻaho ni; pea ne fuakava kiate ia:” pea naʻa ne fakatau ʻae ʻinasi ʻoe ʻuluaki foha kia Sēkope.

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.

Pea toki ʻatu ai ʻe Sēkope kia ʻIsoa ʻae mā mo e haka lū; pea kai ia mo inu, pea ne tuʻu hake ʻo ʻalu ʻi hono hala; naʻe pehē ʻae siʻaki ʻe ʻIsoa ʻae ʻinasi ʻoe ʻuluaki foha.
