Genesis 25
1 And Abraham took another wife named Keturah.
Abraham tog sig en Hustru, som hed Ketura;
2 And she bore him Zimran, and Jokshan, and Medan, and Midian, and Ishbak, and Shuah.
og hun fødte ham Zimran, Joksjan, Medan, Midjan, Jisjbak og Sjua.
3 And Jokshan begot Sheba and Dedan; and the sons of Dedan were the Asshurim, and the Letushim, and the Leummim.
Joksjan avlede Saba og Dedan. Dedans Sønner var Assjuriterne, Letusjiterne og Le'ummiterne.
4 And the sons of Midian were Ephah, and Epher, and Enoch, and Abida, and Eldaah. All these were sons of Keturah.
Midjans Sønner var Efa, Efer, Hanok, Abida og Elda'a. Alle disse var Keturas Sønner.
5 And Abraham gave all that he had to Isaac.
Abraham gav Isak alt, hvad han ejede;
6 And to the sons of the concubines that Abraham had, Abraham gave gifts, and, while he yet lived, sent them away from Isaac his son, eastward to the east country.
men de Sønner, Abraham havde med sine Medhustruer, skænkede han Gaver og sendte dem, medens han endnu levede, bort fra sin Søn Isak, østpå til Østlandet.
7 And these are the days of the years of Abraham's life which he lived: a hundred and seventy-five years.
De År, Abraham levede, udgjorde 175;
8 And Abraham expired and died in a good old age, old and full [of days]; and was gathered to his peoples.
så udåndede han. Og Abraham døde i en god Alderdom, gammel og mæt af Dage, og samledes til sin Slægt.
9 And his sons Isaac and Ishmael buried him in the cave of Machpelah, in the field of Ephron the son of Zohar the Hittite, which was opposite to Mamre —
Og hans Sønner Isak og Ismael jordede ham i Makpelas Klippehule på Hetiten Efrons Zohars Søns, Mark over for Mamre,
10 the field that Abraham had purchased of the sons of Heth: there was Abraham buried, and Sarah his wife.
den Mark, Abraham havde købt af Hetiterne; der jordedes Abraham og hans Hustru Sara.
11 And it came to pass after the death of Abraham, that God blessed his son Isaac. And Isaac dwelt at Beer-lahai-roi.
Og da Abraham var død, velsignede Gud hans Søn Isak. Isak boede ved Be'erlahajro'i.
12 And these are the generations of Ishmael, Abraham's son, whom Hagar the Egyptian, Sarah's bondwoman, bore to Abraham.
Dette er Abrahams Søn Ismaels Slægtebog, hvem Saras Trælkvinde, Ægypterinden Hagar, fødte ham.
13 And these are the names of the sons of Ishmael by their names according to their generations: Nebaioth, the firstborn of Ishmael; and Kedar, and Adbeel, and Mibsam,
Følgende er Navnene på Ismaels Sønner efter deres Navne og Slægter: Nebajot, Ismaels førstefødte, Kedar, Adbe'el, Mibsam,
14 and Mishma, and Dumah, and Massa,
Misjma, Duma, Massa,
15 Hadad and Tema, Jetur, Naphish and Kedmah.
Hadad, Tema, Jetur, Nafisj og Hedma.
16 These are the sons of Ishmael, and these are their names, in their hamlets and their encampments — twelve princes of their peoples.
Det var Ismaels Sønner, og det var deres Navne i deres Indhegninger og Teltlejre, tolv Høvdinger med deres Stammer.
17 And these are the years of the life of Ishmael: a hundred and thirty-seven years; and he expired and died, and was gathered to his peoples.
Ismaels Leveår udgjorde 137; så udåndede han; han døde og samledes til sin Slægt.
18 And they dwelt from Havilah to Shur, which is opposite to Egypt, as one goes towards Assyria. He settled before the face of all his brethren.
De havde deres Boliger fra Havila til Sjur over for Ægypten hen ad Assjur til. Lige for Øjnene af alle sine Brødre slog han sig ned.
19 And these are the generations of Isaac, Abraham's son. Abraham begot Isaac.
Dette er Abrahams Søn Isaks Slægtebog. Abraham avlede Isak.
20 And Isaac was forty years old when he took Rebecca as wife, the daughter of Bethuel the Syrian of Padan-Aram, the sister of Laban the Syrian.
Isak var fyrretyve År gammel, da han tog Rebekka, en Datter af Aramæeren Betuel fra Paddan Aram og Søster til Aramæeren Laban, til Hustru.
21 And Isaac entreated Jehovah for his wife, because she was barren; and Jehovah was entreated of him, and Rebecca his wife conceived.
Men Isak bad til HERREN for sin Hustru, thi hun var ufrugtbar; og HERREN bønhørte ham, og Rebekka, hans Hustru, blev frugtsommelig.
22 And the children struggled together within her; and she said, If [it be] so, why am I thus? And she went to inquire of Jehovah.
Men da Sønnerne brødes i hendes Liv, sagde hun: "Står det således til, hvorfor lever jeg da?" Og hun gik hen for at adspørge HERREN.
23 And Jehovah said to her, Two nations are in thy womb, And two peoples shall be separated from thy bowels; And one people shall be stronger than the other people, And the elder shall serve the younger.
Da svarede HERREN hende: "To Folkeslag er i dit Liv, to Folk skal gå ud af dit Skød! Det ene skal kue det andet, den ældste tjene den yngste!"
24 And when her days to be delivered were fulfilled, behold, there were twins in her womb.
Da nu Tiden kom, at hun skulde føde, var der Tvillinger i hendes Liv.
25 And the first came out red — all over like a hairy garment; and they called his name Esau.
Den første kom frem rødlig og lodden som en Skindkappe over hele Kroppen; og de kaldte ham Esau.
26 And after that came his brother out; and his hand took hold of Esau's heel; and his name was called Jacob. And Isaac was sixty years old when they were born.
Derefter kom hans Broder frem med Hånden om Esaus Hæl; derfor kaldte de ham Jakob. Isak var tresindstyve År gammel, da de fødtes.
27 And the boys grew, and Esau became a man skilled in hunting, a man of the field; and Jacob was a homely man, dwelling in tents.
Drengene voksede til, og Esau blev en dygtig Jæger, der færdedes i Ødemarken, men Jakob en fredsommelig Mand, en Mand, som boede i Telt.
28 And Isaac loved Esau, because venison was to his taste; and Rebecca loved Jacob.
Isak holdt mest af Esau, thi han spiste gerne Vildt; men Rebekka holdt mest af Jakob.
29 And Jacob had cooked a dish; and Esau came from the field, and he was faint.
Jakob havde engang kogt en Ret Mad, da Esau udmattet kom hjem fra Marken.
30 And Esau said to Jacob, Feed me, I pray thee, with the red — the red thing there, for I am faint. Therefore was his name called Edom.
Da sagde Esau til Jakob: "Lad mig få noget af det røde, det røde der, thi jeg er ved at dø af Sult!" Derfor kaldte de ham Edom.
31 And Jacob said, Sell me now thy birthright.
Men Jakob sagde: "Du må først sælge mig din Førstefødselsret!"
32 And Esau said, Behold, I am going to die, and of what use can the birthright be to me?
Esau svarede: "Jeg er jo lige ved at omkomme; hvad bryder jeg mig om min Førstefødselsret!"
33 And Jacob said, Swear unto me now. And he swore unto him, and sold his birthright to Jacob.
Men Jakob sagde: "Du må først sværge mig det til!" Da svor Esau på det og solgte sin Førstefødselsret til Jakob.
34 And Jacob gave Esau bread and the dish of lentils; and he ate and drank, and rose up and went away. Thus Esau despised the birthright.
Så gav Jakob Esau Brød og kogte Linser, og da han havde spist og drukket, stod han op og gik sin Vej. Således lod Esau hånt om sin Førstefødselsret.
