< Genesis 25 >

1 And Abraham took another wife named Keturah.
Abrayami abalaki mwasi mosusu, kombo na ye « Ketura. »
2 And she bore him Zimran, and Jokshan, and Medan, and Midian, and Ishbak, and Shuah.
Ketura abotelaki ye: Zimirani, Yokishani, Medani, Madiani, Ishibaki mpe Shuwa.
3 And Jokshan begot Sheba and Dedan; and the sons of Dedan were the Asshurim, and the Letushim, and the Leummim.
Yokishani azalaki tata ya Saba mpe Dedani. Tala bato oyo bazalaki bakitani ya Dedani: Bato ya Ashuri, ya Letushi mpe ya Lewumi.
4 And the sons of Midian were Ephah, and Epher, and Enoch, and Abida, and Eldaah. All these were sons of Keturah.
Madiani azalaki tata ya Efa, ya Eferi, ya Enoki, ya Abida mpe ya Elida. Bato oyo nyonso bazalaki bakitani ya Ketura.
5 And Abraham gave all that he had to Isaac.
Abrayami atikaki biloko na ye nyonso na maboko ya Izaki.
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.
Kasi wana Abrayami azalaki nanu na bomoi, apesaki bakado epai ya bana mibali ya bamakangu na ye mpe atindaki bango na mokili ya este, mosika ya mwana na ye ya mobali Izaki.
7 And these are the days of the years of Abraham's life which he lived: a hundred and seventy-five years.
Abrayami awumelaki na bomoi mibu nkama moko na tuku sambo na mitano.
8 And Abraham expired and died in a good old age, old and full [of days]; and was gathered to his peoples.
Bongo Abrayami akataki motema mpe akufaki. Sima na ye kotonda mikolo mpe kokoma mobange makasi, akendeki kokutana na bakoko na ye.
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 —
Bana na ye ya mibali, Izaki mpe Isimaeli, bakundaki ye na lilita ya mabanga ya Makipela pene ya Mamire, kati na elanga ya Efroni, mwana mobali ya Tsoari, moto ya Iti.
10 the field that Abraham had purchased of the sons of Heth: there was Abraham buried, and Sarah his wife.
Abrayami asombaki elanga yango epai ya bato ya Iti. Ezalaki kuna nde bakundaki mwasi na ye 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.
Sima na kufa ya Abrayami, Nzambe apambolaki Izaki, mwana mobali ya Abrayami. Izaki azalaki kovanda pene ya Lakai-Royi.
12 And these are the generations of Ishmael, Abraham's son, whom Hagar the Egyptian, Sarah's bondwoman, bore to Abraham.
Tala molongo ya bakitani ya Isimaeli, mwana mobali ya Abrayami, oyo Agari, moto ya Ejipito mpe mwasi mosali ya Sara, abotelaki Abrayami.
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,
Tala bakombo ya bana mibali ya Isimaeli kolanda ndenge babotamela: Nebayoti, mwana mobali ya liboso ya Isimaeli; Kedari, Adibeli, Mibisami,
14 and Mishma, and Dumah, and Massa,
Mishima, Duma, Masa,
15 Hadad and Tema, Jetur, Naphish and Kedmah.
Adadi, Tema, Yeturi, Nafishi mpe Kedima.
16 These are the sons of Ishmael, and these are their names, in their hamlets and their encampments — twelve princes of their peoples.
Bango nde bazalaki bana mibali zomi na mibale ya Isimaeli. Moko na moko azalaki mokambi ya libota, mpe apesaki kombo na ye na mboka na ye mpe na molako na ye.
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.
Isimaeli awumelaki na bomoi mibu nkama moko na tuku misato na sambo. Akataki motema mpe akufaki; akendeki kokutana na bakoko na ye.
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.
Bakitani na ye bazalaki kovanda na mokili oyo ezalaki kati na Avila mpe Shuri, pene ya Ejipito, na nzela oyo ekenda na Asiri. Bazalaki tango nyonso kovanda lokola banguna ya bandeko na bango nyonso.
19 And these are the generations of Isaac, Abraham's son. Abraham begot Isaac.
Tala libota ya Izaki, mwana mobali ya Abrayami. Abrayami azalaki tata ya Izaki,
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.
mpe Izaki azalaki na mibu tuku minei ya mbotama tango abalaki Rebeka, mwana mwasi ya Betweli, moto ya Arami ya Padani-Arami, mpe ndeko mwasi ya Labani, moto ya Arami.
21 And Isaac entreated Jehovah for his wife, because she was barren; and Jehovah was entreated of him, and Rebecca his wife conceived.
Izaki abondelaki Yawe mpo na Rebeka, mwasi na ye, oyo azalaki ekomba. Yawe ayanolaki libondeli na ye, mpe Rebeka akomaki na zemi.
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.
Kati na libumu na ye, bana bazalaki kowelana. Alobaki: « Likambo nini oyo ekomeli ngai? » Boye, akendeki kotuna Yawe.
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.
Yawe alobaki na ye: « Bikolo mibale ezali kati na libumu na yo, mpe mabota mibale ekabwana ekobima na libumu na yo; ekolo moko ekoleka ekolo mosusu na makasi, mpe kulutu akosalela leki. »
24 And when her days to be delivered were fulfilled, behold, there were twins in her womb.
Wana tango na ye ya kobota ekokaki, azalaki na mapasa mibale kati na libumu na ye.
25 And the first came out red — all over like a hairy garment; and they called his name Esau.
Lipasa ya liboso oyo abimaki azalaki motane mpe nzoto na ye mobimba ezalaki etonda na bapwale lokola elamba ya bapwale; yango wana babengaki ye « Ezawu. »
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.
Sima na yango, ndeko na ye mpe abimaki, loboko na ye ekanga litindi ya Ezawu; yango wana bapesaki ye kombo « Jakobi. » Izaki azalaki na mibu tuku motoba ya mbotama tango Rebeka abotaki.
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.
Bana mibali yango bakolaki. Ezawu akomaki mobomi makasi ya banyama mpe azalaki kolekisa tango mingi na zamba; Jakobi azalaki moto ya kimia, azalaki kosepela kovanda na ndako.
28 And Isaac loved Esau, because venison was to his taste; and Rebecca loved Jacob.
Izaki abandaki kosepela mingi na misuni, yango wana alingaki mingi Ezawu; mpe Rebeka alingaki mingi Jakobi.
29 And Jacob had cooked a dish; and Esau came from the field, and he was faint.
Mokolo moko, wana Jakobi azalaki kolamba elubu, Ezawu oyo awutaki na bilanga ayaki na kolemba.
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.
Ezawu alobaki na Jakobi: — Nalembi makasi; tika ngai nalia elubu oyo, elubu oyo kaka. Yango wana bazalaki mpe kobenga ye Edomi.
31 And Jacob said, Sell me now thy birthright.
Jakobi azongisaki: — Tekela ngai liboso boyaya na yo.
32 And Esau said, Behold, I am going to die, and of what use can the birthright be to me?
Ezawu azongisaki: — Tala, nakokufa na nzala. Boyaya na ngai ekopesa ngai nini?
33 And Jacob said, Swear unto me now. And he swore unto him, and sold his birthright to Jacob.
Kasi Jakobi alobaki: — Lapa liboso ndayi. Ezawu alapaki ndayi epai ya Jakobi; mpe na nzela wana, atekaki boyaya na ye epai ya Jakobi.
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.
Jakobi apesaki Ezawu lipa mpe elubu ya misili. Ezawu aliaki mpe amelaki, bongo atelemaki mpe akendeki. Ezali ndenge wana nde Ezawu atiolaki boyaya na ye.
