Genesis 25
1 In truth, Abraham took another wife, named Keturah.
Og Abraham tog atter en Hustru, og hendes Navn var Ketura.
2 And she bore to him Zimran, and Jokshan, and Medan, and Midian, and Ishbak, and Shuah.
Og hun fødte ham Simran og Joksan og Medan og Midian og Jisbak og Sua.
3 Likewise, Jokshan conceived Sheba and Dedan. The sons of Dedan were Asshurim, and Letushim, and Leummim.
Og Joksan avlede Seba og Dedan; men Dedans Børn vare Asurim og Letusim og Leumim.
4 And truly, from Midian was born Ephah, and Epher, and Hanoch, and Abida, and Eldaah. All these were the sons of Keturah.
Og Midians Børn vare Efa og Efer og Kanok og Abida og Eldaa; disse ere alle Keturas Børn.
5 And Abraham gave everything that he possessed to Isaac.
Og Abraham gav Isak alt det, han ejede.
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.
Men de Medhustruers Børn, som Abraham havde, gav Abraham Skænk og lod dem, medens han endnu levede, fare fra Isak sin Søn mod Østen til Østerland.
7 Now the days of Abraham’s life were one hundred and seventy-five years.
Og disse ere Abrahams Livs Aars Dage, som han levede: hundrede Aar og halvfjerdsindstyve Aar og fem Aar.
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.
Og Abraham opgav Aanden og døde i en god Alderdom, gammel og mæt, og blev samlet til sit Folk,
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,
Og Isak og Ismael, hans Sønner, begrove ham i Hulen Makpela, paa Efrons, Zokars den Hethiters Søns, Ager, som ligger tvært over for Mamre.
10 which he had bought from the sons of Heth. There he was buried, with his wife Sarah.
Paa den Ager, som Abraham købte af Heths Børn, der blev Abraham begraven og Sara hans Hustru.
11 And after his passing, God blessed his son Isaac, who lived near the well named ‘of the One who lives and who sees.’
Og det skete efter Abrahams Død, at Gud velsignede Isak hans Søn, og Isak boede ved den Kilde, som kaldes Beer Lakai Roi.
12 These are the generations of Ishmael, the son of Abraham, whom Hagar the Egyptian, Sarah’s servant, bore to him.
Og disse ere Ismaels, Abrahams Søns, Slægter, som Ægypterinden Hagar, Saras Pige, fødte Abraham.
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,
Og disse ere Ismaels Børns Navne, efter deres Navne, i deres Slægter: Ismaels førstefødte Nebajoth og Kedar og Adbeel og Mibsam
14 likewise Mishma, and Dumah, and Massa,
og Misma og Duma og Massa,
15 Hadad, and Tema, and Jetur, and Naphish, and Kedemah.
Kadar og Thema, Jetur, Nafis og Kedma.
16 These are the sons of Ishmael. And these are their names throughout their fortresses and towns: the twelve princes of their tribes.
Disse ere Ismaels Sønner, og disse ere deres Navne udi deres Byer og i deres Lejre, tolv Fyrster for deres Folk.
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.
Og disse ere Ismaels Livs Aar: hundrede Aar og tredive Aar og syv Aar, saa opgav han Aanden og døde og blev samlet til sit Folk.
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.
Og de boede fra Havila indtil Sur, som er foran Ægypten og henimod Assyrien; hans Arv faldt foran alle hans Brødre.
19 Likewise, these are the generations of Isaac, the son of Abraham. Abraham conceived Isaac,
Og disse ere Isaks, Abrahams Søns, Slægter: Abraham avlede Isak.
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.
Og Isak var fyrretyve Aar gammel, der han tog Rebekka, Bethuel den Syrers Datter, af Paddan-Aram, Laban den Syrers Søster, sig til Hustru.
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.
Og Isak bad til Herren paa sin Hustrus Vegne, thi hun var ufrugtbar; og Herren bønhørte ham, og Rebekka, hans Hustru, undfik.
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.
Og Børnene stødte mod hinanden i hendes Liv, og hun sagde: Dersom det er saaledes, hvorfor er jeg da til? og hun gik at udspørge Herren.
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.”
Og Herren sagde til hende: Tvende Folk ere i dit Liv, og to forskellige Folk skulle udgaa af dit Liv, og det ene Folk skal være stærkere end det andet Folk, og det større skal tjene det mindre.
24 Now the time had arrived to give birth, and behold, twins were discovered in her womb.
Der nu hendes Tid kom, at hun skulde føde, se, da vare der Tvillinger i hendes Liv.
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.
Og den første kom frem, han var rød, ganske laadden som en Kappe, og de kaldte hans Navn Esau.
26 Isaac was sixty years old when the little ones were born to him.
Og derefter kom hans Broder frem, og hans Haand havde fat paa Esaus Hæl, og man kaldte hans Navn Jakob; og Isak var tresindstyve Aar gammel, der han avlede dem.
27 And as adults, Esau became a knowledgeable hunter and a man of agriculture, but Jacob, a simple man, dwelt in tents.
Og Drengene bleve store, og Esau blev en Mand, som forstod sig paa Jagt og levede paa Marken; men Jakob var en from Mand, som boede i Telte.
28 Isaac was fond of Esau, because he was fed from his hunting; and Rebekah loved Jacob.
Og Isak havde Esau kær, thi hans Jagt smagte ham; men Rebekka havde Jakob kær.
29 Then Jacob boiled a small meal. Esau, when he had arrived weary from the field,
Og Jakob havde tilberedt en Ret, og Esau kom fra Marken og var træt.
30 said to him, “Give me this red stew, for I am very tired.” For this reason, his name was called Edom.
Og Esau sagde til Jakob: Kære, lad mig smage af det røde, dette røde, thi jeg er træt; derfor kaldte man hans Navn Edom.
31 Jacob said to him, “Sell me your right of the firstborn.”
Da sagde Jakob: Sælg mig i Dag din Førstefødsel.
32 He answered, “Lo, I am dying, what will the right of the firstborn provide for me?”
Og Esau sagde: Se, jeg gaar at dø, hvad kan jeg da gøre med den Førstefødsel?
33 Jacob said, “So then, swear to me.” Esau swore to him, and he sold his right of the firstborn.
Og Jakob sagde: Sværg mig i Dag; og han tilsvor ham, og han solgte Jakob sin Førstefødsel.
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.
Da gav Jakob Esau Brød og den Ret af Linser, og han aad og drak og stod op og gik bort; og Esau foragtede Førstefødselen.
