Genesis 25
1 And Abraham married another wife, named Cetura:
Abraham gaɖe srɔ̃ bubu, ame si ŋkɔe nye Ketura.
2 Who bore him Zamran, and Jecsan, and Madan, and Madian, and Jesboc, and Sue.
Edzi Zimram, Yoksan, Medan, Midian, Isbak kple Sua na Abraham.
3 Jecsan also begot Saba and Dadan. The children of Dadan were Assurim, and Latusim, and Loomin.
Yoksan dzi Seba kple Dedan. Dedan ƒe viŋutsuwoe nye: Asurim, Letusim kple Leunim.
4 But of Madian was born Epha, and Opher, and Henoch, and Abida, and Eldaa: all these were the children of Cetura.
Midian ƒe viŋutsuwoe nye: Efa, Efer, Hanok, Abida kple Elda. Woawoe nye Abraham kple srɔ̃a evelia, Ketura ƒe dzidzimeviwo.
5 And Abraham gave all his possessions to Isaac.
Abraham tsɔ eƒe nuwo katã na Isak;
6 And to the children of the concubines he gave gifts, and separated them from Isaac his son, while he yet lived, to the east country.
ke ena nu vi siwo eƒe ahiãviwo dzi nɛ la hã, eye wòɖo wo ɖe ɣedzeƒe lɔƒo, ale be womanɔ teƒe ɖeka kple Isak o.
7 And the days of Abraham’s life were a hundred and seventy-five years.
Abraham ƒe agbenɔƒewo katã nɔ ƒe alafa ɖeka blaadre-vɔ-atɔ̃.
8 And decaying he died in a good old age, and having lived a long time, and being full of days: and was gathered to his people.
Abraham mia nu, eye eƒe agbe nu tso le ƒe geɖe xɔxɔ megbe. Enɔ agbe wòde edeƒe, eye wòyi ɖe tɔgbuiawo gbɔ.
9 And Isaac and Ismael his sons buried him in the double cave, which was situated in the field of Ephron the son of Seor the Hethite, over against Mambre;
Via ŋutsuwo, Isak kple Ismael, ɖii ɖe kpeto la me le Makpela si te ɖe Mamre ŋu, le Hititɔ Efron, Zoha ƒe vi ƒe anyigba dzi.
10 Which he had bought of the children of Heth: there was he buried, and Sara his wife.
Teƒe siae Abraham ƒle le Hititɔ la si; afi mae woɖi Abraham kple srɔ̃a ɖo.
11 And after his death, God blessed Isaac his son, who dwelt by the well named Of the living and seeing.
Le Abraham ƒe ku megbe la, Mawu kɔ yayra geɖewo ɖe Isak dzi. Fifia Isak ʋu yi ɖanɔ Beer Lahoi Roi.
12 These are the generations of Ismael the son of Abraham, whom Agar the Egyptian, Sara’s servant, bore unto him:
Esia nye Ismael, Abraham ƒe viŋutsu, ame si Hagar, Egiptetɔ si nye Sara ƒe dɔlanyɔnu dzi na Abraham la ƒe ŋutinya.
13 And these are the names of his children according to their calling and generations. The firstborn of Ismael was Nabajoth, then Cedar, and Adbeel, and Mabsam.
Ismael ƒe viwoe nye: Nebayɔt, ame si nye via tsitsitɔ, Kedar, Adbel, Mibsam,
14 And Masma, and Duma, and Massa,
Misma, Duma, Masa,
15 Hadar, and Thema, and Jethur, and Naphis, and Cedma.
Hadad, Tema, Yetur, Nafis kple Kedema.
16 These are the sons of Ismael: and these are their names by their castles and towns, twelve princes of their tribes.
Viŋutsu wuieve siawo nye Ismael vi siwo va zu fia na to wuieveawo, eye wotsɔ woƒe ŋkɔwo na toawo.
17 And the years of Ismael’s life were a hundred and thirty-seven, and decaying he died, and was gathered unto his people.
Mlɔeba la, Ismael va ku le esime wòxɔ ƒe alafa ɖeka blaetɔ̃-vɔ-adre, eye woɖii ɖe tɔgbuiawo gbɔ.
18 And he dwelt from Hevila as far as Sur, which looketh towards Egypt, to them that go towards the Assyrians. He died in the presence of all his brethren.
Ismael ƒe dzidzimevi siawo kaka ɖe anyigba dzi tso Havila va se ɖe Sur si te ɖe Egipte ƒe liƒowo ŋu le Asiria gome. Wowɔa aʋa edziedzi kple wo nɔewo.
19 These also are the generations of Isaac the son of Abraham: Abraham begot Isaac:
Abraham ƒe vi Isak ƒe dzidzimeviwo ƒe ŋutinya yi ale. Abraham ye dzi Isak.
20 Who when he was forty years old, took to wife Rebecca the daughter of Bathuel the Syrian of Mesopotamia, sister to Laban.
Isak xɔ ƒe blaene esi wòɖe Rebeka, ame si nye Betuel, Arameatɔ tso Padan Aram, Laban nɔvinyɔnu ƒe vi.
21 And Isaac besought the Lord for his wife, because she was barren; and he heard him, and made Rebecca to conceive.
Isak ɖe kuku na Yehowa be wòana vi ye kple Rebeka, elabena le ƒe geɖewo ƒe srɔ̃gbenɔnɔ me la, womedzi vi o. Mlɔeba la, Rebeka va fɔ fu.
22 But the children struggled in her womb: and she said: If it were to be so with me, what need was there to conceive? And she went to consult the Lord.
Edze na Rebeka abe ɖevi evee nɔ avu wɔm le eƒe dɔ me ene! Egblɔ be, “Nyemate ŋu ado dzi anɔ te ɖe nu sia nu o.” Ale wòbia gbe Yehowa tso eŋu.
23 And he answering said: Two nations are in thy womb, and two peoples shall be divided out of thy womb, and one people shall overcome the other, and the elder shall serve the younger.
Yehowa gblɔ nɛ be, “Viŋutsu eve siwo le dɔ me na wò la azu dukɔ eve siwo aʋli ho kple wo nɔewo. Ɖeka asesẽ wu evelia, eye tsitsitɔ azu subɔla na ɖevitɔ.”
24 And when her time was come to be delivered, behold twins were found in her womb.
Le nyateƒe me la, edzi evenɔviwo.
25 He that came forth first was red, and hairy like a skin: and his name was called Esau. Immediately the other coming forth, held his brother’s foot in his hand, and therefore he was called Jacob.
Ɖa dzĩ nɔ gbãtɔ ŋu abe lãfuwue wòdo ene! Ale woyɔe be “Esau.”
26 Isaac was threescore years old when the children were born unto him.
Wodzi ɖevi evelia wòlé Esau ƒe afɔkpodzi ɖe asi. Nu sia tae wona ŋkɔe be Yakob si gɔmee nye, “Nuhala” ɖo. Isak xɔ ƒe blaade esi wòdzi evenɔviawo.
27 And when they were grown up, Esau became a skillful hunter, and a husbandman, but Jacob a plain man dwelt in tents.
Esi ɖeviawo tsi la, Esau zu adela xɔŋkɔ aɖe, ke Yakob ya zu ame fafa aɖe si lɔ̃a aƒemenɔnɔ.
28 Isaac loved Esau, because he ate of his hunting: and Rebecca loved Jacob.
Ɖeviawo dometɔ si Isak lɔ̃ wu lae nye Esau, le adelã si wòtsɔna vaa aƒe mee ta; ke esi Rebeka lɔ̃ wu lae nye Yakob.
29 And Jacob boiled pottage: to whom Esau, coming faint out of the field,
Gbe ɖeka la, Yakob nɔ detsi ƒom esime Esau gbɔ tso adegbe.
30 Said: Give me of this red pottage, for I am exceeding faint. For which reason his name was called Edom.
Esau bia Yakob be, “Nɔvinye, dɔ le wuyem vevie. Na wò akplẽdzĩ aɖem maɖu.” Esia ta wona megbeŋkɔe be “Edom” si gɔmee nye “Akplẽdzĩ.”
31 And Jacob said to him: Sell me thy first birthright.
Yakob ɖo eŋu be, “Enyo, ekema tsɔ wò ŋgɔgbevinyenye nam, eye nàxɔ akplẽdzĩ la.”
32 He answered: Lo I die, what will the first birthright avail me?
Esau gblɔ be, “Ne dɔ le ame aɖe wum wòɖo kudo nu ɖe, viɖe kae gale eƒe ŋgɔgbevinyenye ŋu nɛ?”
33 Jacob said: Swear therefore to me. Esau swore to him, and sold his first birthright.
Yakob xɔ edzi gblɔ be, “Enyo, ekema ka atam na Mawu be ŋgɔgbevinyenye la zu tɔnye.” Esau ka atam, eye wòto esia me dzra eƒe ŋgɔgbevinyenye la na nɔvia suetɔ,
34 And so taking bread and the pottage of lentils, he ate, and drank, and went his way; making little account of having sold his first birthright.
eye Yakob tsɔ abolo, ayi kple dedetsi na Esau wòɖu, no tsi ɖe edzi, eye wòyi eƒe wɔnawo dzi. Ke Esau metsɔ ɖeke le eme be yeɖe asi le yeƒe ŋgɔgbevinyenye ŋuti nenema o.
