Genesis 25
1 And Abraam again took a wife, whose name was Chettura.
Abraham mengambil lagi seorang istri bernama Ketura.
2 And she bore to him Zombran, and Jezan, and Madal, and Madiam, and Jesboc, and Soie.
Dia melahirkan enam anak laki-laki yang diberi nama Zimran, Yoksan, Medan, Midian, Isbak, dan Suah.
3 And Jezan begot Saba and Dedan. And the sons of Dedan were the Assurians and the Latusians, and Laomim.
Yoksan mempunyai dua anak laki-laki bernama Seba dan Dedan. Keturunan Dedan menjadi bangsa Asyur, bangsa Letus, dan bangsa Leum.
4 And the sons of Madiam [were] Gephar and Aphir, and Enoch, and Abeida, and Eldaga; all these were sons of Chettura.
Anak laki-laki Midian adalah Efa, Efer, Henok, Abida, dan Eldaa. Itulah keturunan Ketura.
5 But Abraam gave all his possessions to Isaac his son.
Abraham mewariskan segala kepunyaannya kepada Isak,
6 But to the sons of his concubines Abraam gave gifts, and he sent them away from his son Isaac, while he was yet living, to the east into the country of the east.
sedangkan kepada anak-anaknya yang lain, yaitu anak-anak dari para budak perempuan yang dia jadikan istri, dia memberikan hadiah-hadiah berharga. Sesudah itu, Abraham menyuruh mereka pindah ke daerah sebelah timur untuk meninggalkan Isak.
7 And these [were] the years of the days of the life of Abraam as many as he lived, a hundred and seventy-five years.
Abraham menikmati umur panjang selama 175 tahun, lalu mati. Sesudah itu, dia mendapat tempat bersama dengan nenek moyangnya yang sudah meninggal dunia.
8 And Abraam failing died in a good old age, an old man and full of days, and was added to his people.
9 And Isaac and Ismael his sons buried him in the double cave, in the field of Ephron the son of Saar the Chettite, which is over against Mambre:
Isak dan Ismael menguburkan ayah mereka di gua yang ada di Makpela, di sebelah timur Hebron, di ladang yang dulu sudah dibeli Abraham dari Efron, anak orang Het bernama Zohar. Abraham dikuburkan di sisi Sara.
10 [even] the field and the cave which Abraam bought of the sons of Chet; there they buried Abraam and Sarrha his wife.
11 And it came to pass after Abraam was dead, that God blessed Isaac his son, and Isaac lived by the well of the vision.
Sesudah itu, Allah memberkati Isak sebagaimana Dia memberkati ayahnya. Isak menetap di dekat sumur Beer Lahai Roi.
12 And these [are] the generations of Ismael the son of Abraam, whom Agar the Egyptian the handmaid of Sarrha bore to Abraam.
Inilah daftar keturunan Ismael, anak Abraham melalui Hagar, orang Mesir itu, yang adalah budaknya Sara.
13 And these [are] the names of the sons of Ismael, according to the names of their generations. The firstborn of Ismael, Nabaioth, and Kedar, and Nabdeel, and Massam,
Ismael memiliki dua belas anak laki-laki. Nama-nama mereka adalah Nebayot, Kedar, Adbeel, Mibsam,
14 and Masma, and Duma, and Masse,
Misma, Duma, Masa,
15 and Choddan, and Thaeman, and Jetur, and Naphes, and Kedma.
Hadad, Tema, Yetur, Nafis, dan Kedma.
16 These [are] the sons of Ismael, and these are their names in their tents and in their dwellings, twelve princes according to their nations.
Itulah nama kedua belas anak Ismael. Semuanya menjadi pemimpin suku. Dan setiap kota yang menjadi pusat suku yang dipimpin dinamai sesuai dengan nama mereka masing-masing.
17 And these [are] the years of the life of Ismael, a hundred and thirty-seven years; and he failed and died, and was added to his fathers.
Ismael hidup selama 137 tahun, lalu meninggal dunia. Kemudian TUHAN menempatkan dia bersama dengan nenek moyangnya yang sudah meninggal.
18 And he lived from Evilat to Sur, which is opposite Egypt, until one comes to the Assyrians; he lived in the presence of all his brethren.
Keturunan Ismael tinggal di sebelah timur wilayah keturunan Isak, yaitu di daerah Hawila sampai Syur, ke arah negeri Asyur, di sebelah timur Mesir. Kedua belas suku ini tinggal jauh dari keturunan Isak.
19 And these [are] the generations of Isaac the son of Abraam.
Inilah riwayat keluarga Isak, anak Abraham:
20 Abraam begot Isaac. And Isaac was forty years old when he took as wife Rebecca, daughter of Bathuel the Syrian, out of Syrian Mesopotamia, sister of Laban the Syrian.
Ketika Isak berumur 40 tahun, dia menikah dengan Ribka, anak Betuel, adik perempuan Laban. Mereka adalah orang Aram dari Padan Aram.
21 And Isaac prayed the Lord concerning Rebecca his wife, because she was barren; and the Lord heard him, and his wife Rebecca conceived in her womb.
Tetapi Ribka mandul. Maka Isak berdoa kepada TUHAN, dan TUHAN menjawab doanya sehingga istrinya mengandung.
22 And the babes leaped within her; and she said, If it will be so with me, why is this to me? And she went to enquire of the Lord.
Ternyata Ribka mengandung anak kembar. Kedua anaknya itu saling bertentangan di dalam rahimnya. Lalu Ribka berdoa meminta petunjuk TUHAN, katanya, “Ya TUHAN, mengapa hal ini terjadi padaku?”
23 And the Lord said to her, There are two nations in your womb, and two peoples shall be separated from your belly, and one people shall excel the other, and the elder shall serve the younger.
Jawab TUHAN kepadanya, “Dua anak laki-laki ada di dalam kandunganmu. Keturunan mereka akan menjadi nenek moyang dari dua bangsa yang besar dan saling bermusuhan. Yang muda akan lebih kuat. Yang tua akan menjadi pelayannya.”
24 And the days were fulfilled that she should be delivered, and she had twins in her womb.
Kemudian tibalah waktunya Ribka melahirkan dua anak kembar itu.
25 And the first came out red, hairy all over like a skin; and she called his name Esau.
Anak yang pertama kulitnya kemerahan dan seluruh tubuhnya berbulu. Mereka menamai dia Esau.
26 And after this came forth his brother, and his hand took hold of the heel of Esau; and she called his name Jacob. And Isaac was sixty years old when Rebecca bore them.
Waktu anak yang kedua lahir, tangannya memegang tumit kakaknya. Maka mereka menamai dia Yakub. Isak berumur 60 tahun ketika anak-anaknya itu lahir.
27 And the lads grew, and Esau was a man skilled in hunting, dwelling in the country, and Jacob a simple man, dwelling in a house.
Sesudah kedua anak itu dewasa, Esau menjadi seorang pemburu ulung dan suka tinggal di padang, sedangkan Yakub menjadi seorang yang tenang dan suka tinggal di dalam kemah.
28 And Isaac loved Esau, because his venison was his food, but Rebecca loved Jacob.
Karena itu, Isak lebih sayang kepada Esau karena dia suka makan daging hasil buruan Esau, sementara Ribka lebih sayang kepada Yakub.
29 And Jacob cooked pottage, and Esau came from the plain, fainting.
Suatu hari, ketika Yakub sedang memasak sup kacang merah, Esau pulang berburu dari padang dalam keadaan sangat lapar.
30 And Esau said to Jacob, Let me taste of that red pottage, because I am fainting; therefore his name was called Edom.
Berkatalah Esau kepada Yakub, “Aku kelaparan! Berilah aku sebagian sup kacang merah itu.” Inilah sebabnya Esau diberi nama julukan ‘Edom’, yang berarti ‘merah’.
31 And Jacob said to Esau, Sell me this day your birthright.
Jawab Yakub kepada Esau, “Baiklah, tetapi kamu harus menukarnya dengan hak kesulunganmu.”
32 And Esau said, Behold, I am going to die, and for what good does this birthright [belong] to me?
Esau berkata, “Aku hampir mati kelaparan! Apalah gunanya hak kesulungan itu bagiku?!”
33 And Jacob said to him, Swear to me this day; and he swore to him; and Esau sold his birthright to Jacob.
Kata Yakub, “Bersumpahlah terlebih dahulu bahwa kamu akan memberikan hak kesulunganmu kepadaku.” Lalu dengan bersumpah, Esau menukar hak kesulungannya dengan masakan Yakub.
34 And Jacob gave bread to Esau, and pottage of lentiles; and he ate and drank, and he arose and departed; so Esau slighted his birthright.
Maka Yakub memberikan roti dan sup kacang merah itu kepada Esau. Dia makan dan minum, lalu pergi. Demikianlah Esau tidak menghargai hak kesulungannya.
