Genesis 25
1 Now Abraham had taken another wife, named Keturah,
Abraham waree ɔbea foforo bi a ne din de Ketura.
2 and she bore him Zimran, Jokshan, Medan, Midian, Ishbak, and Shuah.
Abraham ne Ketura woo saa mma a wɔn din didi so yi: Simran, Yoksan, Medan, Midian, Yisbak ne Sua.
3 Jokshan was the father of Sheba and Dedan. And the sons of Dedan were the Asshurites, the Letushites, and the Leummites.
Yoksan woo Seba ne Dedan. Dedan asefo ne Asurfo, Letusfo ne Leumfo.
4 The sons of Midian were Ephah, Epher, Hanoch, Abida, and Eldaah. All these were descendants of Keturah.
Midian woo Efa, Efer, Henok, Abida ne Eldaa. Eyinom nyinaa yɛ Ketura asefo.
5 Abraham left everything he owned to Isaac.
Abraham de nʼagyapade nyinaa maa Isak.
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.
Nanso bere a ɔte ase no, ɔmaa ne mpenamma akyɛde, na oyii wɔn fii ne babarima Isak nkyɛn ma wɔkɔɔ apuei fam asase bi so.
7 Abraham lived a total of 175 years.
Abraham nkwanna nyinaa kosii mfe ɔha aduɔson anum.
8 And at a ripe old age he breathed his last and died, old and contented, and was gathered to his people.
Abraham nyin bɔɔ akwakoraa posoposo ansa na ɔrewu akɔka ne mpanyimfo ho.
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.
Ne mmabarima Isak ne Ismael siee no wɔ Makpela boda a ɛwɔ Efron no mu. Na ɛhɔ yɛ Hetini Sohar babarima no afuw a ɛwɔ Mamrɛ apuei fam.
10 This was the field that Abraham had bought from the Hittites. Abraham was buried there with his wife Sarah.
Eyi ne asase a Abraham tɔ fii Hetifo nkyɛn no. Ɛhɔ na wosiee Abraham ne ne yere Sara.
11 After Abraham’s death, God blessed his son Isaac, who lived near Beer-lahai-roi.
Abraham wu akyi no, Onyankopɔn hyiraa ne ba Isak a na saa bere no ɔte Beer-Lahai-Roi abura no ho no.
12 This is the account of Abraham’s son Ishmael, whom Hagar the Egyptian, Sarah’s maidservant, bore to Abraham.
Eyi ne Abraham babarima Ismael a Sara afenaa Hagar a ɔyɛ Misraimni no woo no maa Abraham no asefo ho asɛm.
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,
Wɔn a wodidi so yi yɛ Ismael mmabarima a wɔabobɔ wɔn din fi mpanyin mu no. Na Nebaiot yɛ Ismael abakan. Wɔn a wodidi so yi nso yɛ Kedar, Adbeel, Mibsam,
14 Mishma, Dumah, Massa,
Misma, Duma, Masa,
15 Hadad, Tema, Jetur, Naphish, and Kedemah.
Hadad, Tema, Yetur, Nafis ne Kedema.
16 These were the sons of Ishmael, and these were their names by their villages and encampments—twelve princes of their tribes.
Saa din a wɔabobɔ yi yɛ Ismael mmabarima no. Saa din yi na ɛdeda mmusuakuw dumien ne wɔn atenae so.
17 Ishmael lived a total of 137 years. Then he breathed his last and died, and was gathered to his people.
Ismael dii mfirihyia ɔha aduasa ason ansa na ɔrewu. Owu ma wosiee no wɔ ne nkurɔfo mu.
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.
Ismael asefo yi tenatenaa nsase a efi Hawila kosi Sur a ɛbɛn Misraim pɛɛ wɔ Asiria ntentenso. Daa na akokoakoko wɔ mmusuakuw yi ntam.
19 This is the account of Abraham’s son Isaac. Abraham became the father of Isaac,
Abraham babarima Isak ne nʼasefo ho asɛm ni. Abraham woo Isak.
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.
Isak dii mfirihyia aduanan no, ɔwaree Rebeka a ɔyɛ Aramni Betuel a ofi Paddan-Aram no babea. Rebeka yɛ Aramni Laban nuabea.
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.
Isak waree Rebeka mfe bebree a na wɔnwo. Enti Isak bɔɔ Awurade mpae, srɛɛ ɔba maa ne yere. Akyiri no, Awurade tiee ne mpaebɔ, maa ne yere Rebeka nyinsɛnee.
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,
Bere a Rebeka nyinsɛnee no, ɛtɔ da a, na mmofra no di aperepere wɔ ne yafunu mu. Sɛ ɛba saa a, obisa ne ho se, “Dɛn na ɛreyɛ me yi?” Afei, ɔbɔɔ mpae bisaa Awurade nea ɛkyerɛ.
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.”
Awurade buaa no se, “Aman abien na wɔwɔ wo yafunu mu. Wɔbɛtetew nnipa baanu a wɔwɔ wo yafunu mu no mu. Mmofra baanu no, ɔbaako asefo bɛyɛ ahoɔdenfo asen ne nua a ɔka ne ho no asefo. Na ɔpanyin no bɛsom akumaa no.”
24 When her time came to give birth, there were indeed twins in her womb.
Rebeka awo duu so no, ɔwoo ntaten.
25 The first one came out red, covered with hair like a fur coat; so they named him Esau.
Na nea odii kan bae no yɛ ɔkɔkɔɔ a ne ho nwi yɛ kuhaa te sɛ nea ɔhyɛ nwi atade. Enti wɔtoo no din Esau.
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.
Eyi akyi no, ne nua no bae a na ne nsa kura Esau nantin; enti wɔtoo ne din Yakob. Rebeka woo wɔn no, na Isak adi mfe aduosia.
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.
Mmofra no nyin no, Esau bɛyɛɛ ɔbɔmmɔfo a ɔtow a, ɔmfom. Na ɔyɛ ha fa wuram baabiara. Yakob nso bɛyɛɛ obi a ɔyɛ komm a ɔmpɛ ne ho asɛm. Na bere biara, ɔpɛ sɛ ɔtena fie.
28 Because Isaac had a taste for wild game, he loved Esau; but Rebekah loved Jacob.
Na Isak pɛ Esau asɛm yiye, efisɛ na bere biara ɔkɔyɛ ha de hanam a Isak pɛ ba fie. Nanso na Rebeka de, ɔpɛ Yakob asɛm.
29 One day, while Jacob was cooking some stew, Esau came in from the field and was famished.
Da bi a Esau fi wuram bae a na ɔkɔm de no yiye no, ɔbɛtoo sɛ ne nua kumaa Yakob nso renoa aduan bi a ani yɛ kɔkɔɔ na ɛyɛ akɔnnɔ nso.
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.)
Ɔka kyerɛɛ Yakob se, “Mesrɛ wo, ma me wʼaduan a woanoa yi bi nni!” Ɛno nti na wɔfrɛ Esau sɛ Edom, a nkyerɛase ne ade kɔkɔɔ.
31 “First sell me your birthright,” Jacob replied.
Yakob buae se, “Tɔn wo panyin no ma me ansa.”
32 “Look,” said Esau, “I am about to die, so what good is a birthright to me?”
Esau kae se, “Ɔkɔm rekum me, na mede panyin reyɛ dɛn?”
33 “Swear to me first,” Jacob said. So Esau swore to Jacob and sold him the birthright.
Yakob buaa Esau se, “Mate, ka ntam kyerɛ me wɔ Onyankopɔn anim sɛ, panyin no yɛ me dea.” Esau kaa ntam no de tɔn ne panyin no maa ne nua kumaa Yakob.
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.
Enti Yakob maa Esau aduan no bi ma odii. Ɔnom nsu guu so, sɔre kɔɔ ne kwan. Eyi ne ɔkwan a Esau faa so tɔn ne panyin no.
