< Genesis 25 >
1 Abraham married another wife; her name was Keturah.
Abraham waree ɔbaa foforɔ bi a ne din de Ketura.
2 She had the following sons: Zimran, Jokshan, Medan, Midian, Ishbak, and Shuah.
Abraham ne Ketura wowoo saa mma a wɔn din didi so yi: Simran, Yoksan, Medan, Midian, Yisbak ne Sua.
3 Jokshan was the father of Sheba and Dedan. The descendants of Dedan were the Asshurites, the Letushites, and the Leummites.
Yoksan woo Seba ne Dedan. Dedan asefoɔ ne Asurfoɔ, Letusfoɔ ne Leumfoɔ.
4 The sons of Midian were Ephah, Epher, Hanoch, Abida, and Eldaah. These were all descendants of Keturah.
Midian woo Efa, Efer, Henok, Abida ne Eldaa. Yeinom nyinaa yɛ Ketura asefoɔ.
5 Abraham left everything he owned to Isaac.
Abraham de nʼagyapadeɛ nyinaa maa Isak.
6 But while he was still alive, he gave gifts to the sons of his concubines and sent them to live in the east, well away from Isaac.
Nanso, ɛberɛ a ɔte ase no, ɔmaa ne mpena mma akyɛdeɛ, na ɔyii wɔn firii ne babarima Isak nkyɛn, ma wɔkɔɔ apueeɛ fam asase bi so.
7 Abraham lived to be 175
Abraham nkwanna nyinaa kɔsii mfeɛ ɔha aduɔson enum.
8 when he breathed his last and died at a good old age. He had lived a full life, and now he joined his forefathers in death.
Abraham nyini bɔɔ akɔkoraa posoposo ansa na ɔrewu akɔka ne mpanimfoɔ ho.
9 His sons Isaac and Ishmael buried him in the cave of Machpelah near Mamre, in the field that had belonged to Ephron, son of Zohar, the Hittite.
Ne mmammarima Isak ne Ismael siee no wɔ Makpela boda a ɛwɔ Efron no mu. Na ɛhɔ yɛ Hetini Sohar babarima no afuo a ɛwɔ Mamrɛ apueeɛ fam.
10 This was the field Abraham had bought from the Hittites. Abraham was buried there with his wife Sarah.
Yei ne asase a Abraham tɔ firii Hetifoɔ nkyɛn no. Ɛhɔ na wɔsiee Abraham ne ne yere Sara.
11 After Abraham's death, God blessed his son Isaac, who was living near Beer-lahai-roi.
Abraham wuo akyiri no, Onyankopɔn hyiraa ne ba Isak a na saa ɛberɛ no ɔte Beer-Lahai-Roi abura no ho no.
12 This is the genealogy of Abraham's son Ishmael. His mother Hagar was Sarah's Egyptian slave.
Yei ne Abraham babarima Ismael a Sara afenaa Hagar a ɔyɛ Misraimni no woo no maa Abraham no asefoɔ ho asɛm.
13 These were the names of the sons of Ishmael according to their family genealogy: Nebaioth (firstborn), Kedar, Adbeel, Mibsam,
Wɔn a wɔdidi so yi yɛ Ismael mmammarima a wɔabobɔ wɔn edin mpanin mu no. Na Nebaiot yɛ Ismael abakan. Wɔn a wɔdidi so yi nso yɛ Kedar, Adbeel, Mibsam,
15 Hadad, Tema, Jetur, Naphish, and Kedemah.
Hadad, Tema, Yetur, Nafis ne Kedema.
16 These were the sons of Ishmael, and these became the names of the places where they lived and camped—the twelve family rulers of their tribes.
Saa edin a wɔabobɔ yi yɛ Ismael mmammarima no. Saa edin yi na ɛdeda mmusuakuo dumienu ne wɔn atenaeɛ so.
17 Ishmael lived to be 137. Then he breathed his last and died, and joined his forefathers in death.
Ismael dii mfirinhyia ɔha aduasa nson ansa na ɔrewu. Ɔwuiɛ ma wɔsiee no wɔ ne nkurɔfoɔ mu.
18 Ishmael's descendants inhabited the region from Havilah to Shur, near the border of Egypt in the direction of Asshur. They were forever fighting with one other.
Ismael asefoɔ yi tenatenaa nsase a ɛfiri Hawila kɔsi Sur a ɛbɛn Misraim pɛɛ wɔ Asiria ntenesoɔ. Daa na akokoakoko wɔ mmusuakuo yi ntam.
19 The following is the genealogy of Abraham's son Isaac. Abraham was the father of Isaac.
Abraham babarima Isak ne nʼasefoɔ ho asɛm nie. Abraham woo Isak.
20 When Isaac was 40 he married Rebekah, the daughter of Bethuel the Aramean from Paddan-aram and the sister of Laban the Aramean.
Isak dii mfirinhyia aduanan no, ɔwaree Rebeka a ɔyɛ Aramni Betuel a ɔfiri Paddan-Aram no babaa. Rebeka yɛ Aramni Laban nuabaa.
21 Isaac prayed to the Lord for help on behalf of his wife because she couldn't have children. The Lord answered his prayer and she became pregnant.
Isak waree Rebeka mfeɛ bebree a na wɔnwo. Enti, Isak bɔɔ Awurade mpaeɛ, srɛɛ ɔba maa ne yere. Akyire yi, Awurade tiee ne mpaeɛbɔ, maa ne yere Rebeka nyinsɛneeɛ.
22 The twin babies inside her struggled with each other. So she asked the Lord, “Why is this happening to me?”
Ɛberɛ a Rebeka nyinsɛneeɛ no, ɛtɔ da a, na mmɔfra no di apereapereɛ wɔ ne yafunu mu. Sɛ ɛba saa a, ɔbisa ne ho sɛ, “Ɛdeɛn na ɛreyɛ me yi?” Afei, ɔbɔɔ mpaeɛ bisaa Awurade nkyɛn asekyerɛ.
23 “You have two nations inside you,” the Lord replied. “You're going to give birth to two peoples who will compete against each other. One will be stronger than the other; the older one will be the servant of the younger one.”
Awurade buaa no sɛ, “Aman mmienu na wɔwɔ wo yafunu mu. Wɔbɛtete nnipa baanu a wɔwɔ wo yafunu mu no mu. Mmɔfra baanu no, ɔbaako asefoɔ bɛyɛ ahoɔdenfoɔ asene ne nua a ɔka ne ho no asefoɔ. Na ɔpanin no bɛsom akumaa no.”
24 When the time came she gave birth to twins.
Rebeka awoɔ duruu so no, ɔwoo ntaten.
25 The first baby to be born was red, and covered with hair like a coat. So they named him Esau.
Na deɛ ɔdi ɛkan baeɛ no yɛ kɔkɔɔ a ne ho nwi yɛ kuhaa te sɛ deɛ ɔhyɛ nwi atadeɛ. Enti, wɔtoo no edin Esau.
26 Then his twin brother was born, holding on to Esau's heel. So he was named Jacob. Isaac was 60 when they were born.
Yei akyiri no, ne nua no baeɛ. Na ne nsa kura Esau nantin; enti wɔtoo ne din Yakob. Rebeka woo wɔn no, na Isak adi mfeɛ aduosia.
27 The boys grew up and Esau became a skilled hunter, at home in the countryside. Jacob was quiet and liked to stay at home in the tents.
Mmɔfra no nyiniiɛ no, Esau bɛyɛɛ ɔbɔmmɔfoɔ a, ɔto a, ɔmfom. Na ɔyɛ ha fa wiram baabiara. Yakob nso bɛyɛɛ obi a ɔyɛ komm a ɔmpɛ ne ho asɛm. Na ɛberɛ biara, ɔpɛ sɛ ɔtena fie.
28 Isaac loved Esau because he brought him tasty wild game to eat, while Rebekah loved Jacob.
Na Isak pɛ Esau asɛm yie, ɛfiri sɛ, na ɛberɛ biara ɔkɔyɛ ha de hanam a Isak pɛ ba fie. Nanso, na Rebeka deɛ, ɔpɛ Yakob asɛm.
29 One day Jacob was cooking some stew when Esau got back from the countryside, tired out and starving hungry.
Ɛda bi a Esau firi wiram baeɛ a na ɛkɔm de no yie no, ɔbɛtoo sɛ ne nua kumaa Yakob nso renoa aduane bi a ani yɛ kɔkɔɔ na ɛyɛ akɔnnɔ nso.
30 “Give me some of that red stew,” Esau told Jacob. “I'm absolutely starving!” (That's how Esau got his other name, “Edom,” meaning “red.”)
Ɔka kyerɛɛ Yakob sɛ, “Mesrɛ wo, ma me wʼaduane a woanoa yi bi nni!” (Ɛno enti na wɔfrɛ Esau sɛ Edom, a asekyerɛ ne ade kɔkɔɔ).
31 “First sell me your rights as the firstborn son,” Jacob replied.
Yakob buaa sɛ, “Tɔn wo panin no ma me ansa.”
32 “Look! I'm dying here! What use are the rights of the firstborn to me?” Esau declared.
Esau kaa sɛ, “Ɔkɔm rekum me, na mede panin reyɛ ɛdeɛn?”
33 “First you have to swear to me,” Jacob demanded. So Esau swore an oath selling his rights of the firstborn to Jacob.
Yakob buaa Esau sɛ, “Mate, ka ntam kyerɛ me wɔ Onyankopɔn anim sɛ, panin no yɛ me dea.” Esau kaa ntam no de tɔn ne panin no maa ne nua kumaa Yakob.
34 Then Jacob gave Esau some bread and lentil stew. He ate and drank, and then he got up and left. By doing this Esau showed how little he cared for his rights as the firstborn son.
Enti, Yakob maa Esau aduane no bi, ma ɔdiiɛ. Ɔnom nsuo guu so, sɔre kɔɔ ne kwan. Yei ne ɛkwan a Esau faa so tɔn ne panin no.
