< Genesis 25 >

1 In truth, Abraham took another wife, named Keturah.
Te phoeiah Abraham loh yuu koepa loh tih anih ming tah Keturah ni.
2 And she bore to him Zimran, and Jokshan, and Medan, and Midian, and Ishbak, and Shuah.
Abraham ham Zimran neh Jokshan khaw, Medan khaw, Midian khaw, Ishbak khaw, Shuah khaw a sak pah.
3 Likewise, Jokshan conceived Sheba and Dedan. The sons of Dedan were Asshurim, and Letushim, and Leummim.
Jokshan loh Sheba neh Dedan tea sak tih Dedan ca rhoek la Asshurim, Lethushim neh Leummim om.
4 And truly, from Midian was born Ephah, and Epher, and Hanoch, and Abida, and Eldaah. All these were the sons of Keturah.
Midian ca rhoek la Ephah khaw, Epher khaw, Hanok khaw, Abidah neh Eldaah khaw om tih amih boeih he Keturah ko rhoek ni.
5 And Abraham gave everything that he possessed to Isaac.
Abraham loh amah kaha cungkuem te Isaak taengaha paek.
6 But to the sons of the concubines he gave generous gifts, and he separated them from his son Isaac, while he still lived, toward the eastern region.
Tedae Abraham yula rhoek kah a carhoek te Abraham loh amaha hing vaengah kutdoea paek tih a capa Isaak taeng lamkah khothoeng ben khothoeng kho la vika tueih.
7 Now the days of Abraham’s life were one hundred and seventy-five years.
Te dongah Abraham kah a hingnah kum tue he kum ya neh kum sawmrhih kum nga hing.
8 And declining, he died in a good old age, and at an advanced stage of life, and full of days. And he was gathered to his people.
Tedae Abraham he pal tiha duek vaengah khaw patong sampok then neh ngaikhuek la a pilnam taengah khoem uh.
9 And his sons Isaac and Ishmael buried him in the double cave, which was situated in the field of Ephron, of the son of Zohar the Hittite, across from the region of Mamre,
Te vaengah anih te a ca rhoi Isaak neh Ishmael loh Mamre kaep Khitti hoel Zohar capa Ephron lo kah Makpelah lungko aha up rhoi.
10 which he had bought from the sons of Heth. There he was buried, with his wife Sarah.
Tekah lo te Abraham loh Kheth carhoek taeng lamkaha lai dongah, Abraham loh a yuu Sarahte pahoi khawa up.
11 And after his passing, God blessed his son Isaac, who lived near the well named ‘of the One who lives and who sees.’
Tedae Abrahama dueknah hnutah aka om tah, a capa Isaak te Pathen loh yoethen a paek. Te dongah Isaak loh Beerlahairoi taengahkhoa sak.
12 These are the generations of Ishmael, the son of Abraham, whom Hagar the Egyptian, Sarah’s servant, bore to him.
Te phoeiah hekah he Abraham capa Ishmael, Abraham taengah Sarah loh a paek a sal Egypt nu Hagarloh a cun kah rhuirhong ni.
13 And these are the names of his sons according to their language and generations. The firstborn of Ishmael was Nebaioth, then Kedar, and Adbeel, and Mibsam,
He tah amamih ming bangla Ishmael ca rhoek kah a ming ni. Amih kah rhuirhong dongah Ishmael kah caming tah Nebaioth tih Kedar neh Adbeel, Mibsam,
14 likewise Mishma, and Dumah, and Massa,
Mishma, Dumah, Massa,
15 Hadad, and Tema, and Jetur, and Naphish, and Kedemah.
Hadad, Tema, Jetur, Naphish, Kedemah om.
16 These are the sons of Ishmael. And these are their names throughout their fortresses and towns: the twelve princes of their tribes.
Amih Ishmael carhoek he khaw amah ming, amah vongtung, amah lumim neh amah namtu kah khoboei he hlai nit omuh.
17 And the years of the life of Ishmael that passed were one hundred and thirty-seven. And declining, he died and was placed with his people.
Tedae Ishmael kah a hingnah kum he kum ya neh kum sawmthum kum rhih a lo vaengah pal tiha duek dongah a pilnam taengla khoem uh.
18 Now he had lived from Havilah as far as Shur, which overlooks Egypt as it approaches the Assyrians. He passed away in the sight of all his brothers.
Amih khaw Havilah lamkah Assyria la aka pawk Egypt khorhi Shur duelakhoa sak uh tih a manucarhoek boeih kah imdan ah pakuep uh.
19 Likewise, these are the generations of Isaac, the son of Abraham. Abraham conceived Isaac,
Te phoeiah hekah he Abraham capa Isaak kah a rhuirhong ni. Abraham loh Isaaka sak tih,
20 who, when he was forty years old, took Rebekah, the sister of Laban, the daughter of Bethuel the Syrian from Mesopotamia, as a wife.
Isaak kum sawmlia lo ca vaengah a yuu te Paddanaram kah Arammi Bethuel canu, Arammi Laban ngannu, Rebekah te a loh.
21 And Isaac beseeched the Lord on behalf of his wife, because she was barren. And he heard him, and he gave conception to Rebekah.
Tedae anih te a yaa dongah Isaak loh BOEIPA taengah a yuu yueng la thangthui. Te dongah anih te BOEIPAloh a rhoi tih a yuu Rebekah pahoi pumrhih.
22 But the little ones struggled in her womb. So she said, “If it was to be so with me, what need was there to conceive?” And she went to consult the Lord.
Tedae a ko khuikah camoe rhoi te phop uh rhoi. Te dongah, “Balae tih hetla ka om mai,” a ti. Te dongah BOEIPA te dawt ham cet.
23 And responding, he said, “Two nations are in your womb, and two peoples will be divided out of your womb, and one people will overcome the other people, and the elder will serve the younger.”
Te dongah BOEIPA loh anih taengah, “Nang bung khuiah namtu neh namtu om rhoi tih na ko lamkah namtute panit la paek uh rhoi ni. Te vaengah namtu pakhat te namtu pakhat lakah te tlung vetiha hamloh a noe taengah thotat ni,” a ti nah.
24 Now the time had arrived to give birth, and behold, twins were discovered in her womb.
Tedaea tuea tuemtuen vaengah a bung ah caphae la tarhaa cun.
25 He who departed first was red, and entirely hairy like a pelt; and his name was called Esau. At once the other departed and he held his brother’s foot in his hand; and because of this he was called Jacob.
Te vaengah aka thoeng lamhmate a pum boeih lingphung tih a mul khaw himbai banglaaom dongah anih mingte Esaua sui.
26 Isaac was sixty years old when the little ones were born to him.
A hnukah a mana om tih a kut neh Esau kah khodil tea tuuk. Te dongah a mingte Jakoba sui. Amih rhoi a sak vaengah Isaak khaw kum sawmrhuk lo ca coeng.
27 And as adults, Esau became a knowledgeable hunter and a man of agriculture, but Jacob, a simple man, dwelt in tents.
Tedae camoe rhoi tea pantai vaengah Esaute pongcet hlang, sakap thai la hlang coeng tih Jakob he dapah duem aka om hlang la coeng.
28 Isaac was fond of Esau, because he was fed from his hunting; and Rebekah loved Jacob.
Te vaengah Esau kah sakahte a ka dongah a tui pah dongah Isaakloh a lungnah dae Rebekah long tah Jakoba lungnah.
29 Then Jacob boiled a small meal. Esau, when he had arrived weary from the field,
Tedae Jakob loh andama thong vaengah Esau buhmueh rhathih la pong lamkah ha pawk.
30 said to him, “Give me this red stew, for I am very tired.” For this reason, his name was called Edom.
Te dongah Esau loh Jakob la, “Kai he bumueh rhathih la ka om dongah tekaha thima thim te kai n'cah mai,” a ti nah. Te dongah anih mingte Edoma sui.
31 Jacob said to him, “Sell me your right of the firstborn.”
Tedae Jakob loh, “Tihnin ah nang kah caminghamsumte kai taengah han yoi,” a ti nah.
32 He answered, “Lo, I am dying, what will the right of the firstborn provide for me?”
Te dongah Esau loh, “Hekah caminghamsum khaw kai ham te balam nim. Kai duek ham ka cet coeng he,” a ti nah.
33 Jacob said, “So then, swear to me.” Esau swore to him, and he sold his right of the firstborn.
Tedae Jakob loh, “Tihnin ah kai ham toemngam laeh,” a tinah vaengaha toemngam tih a caminghamsum te Jakob taenglaa yoih.
34 And so, taking bread and the food of lentils, he ate, and he drank, and he went away, giving little weight to having sold the right of the firstborn.
Te daengah Jakob loh buh neh rhacik andamte Esaua paek. Tedaea caaka ok phoeiah thoo tih vik cet. Te dongah Esau loh caminghamsum tea sawtsit coeng.
