< Genesis 25 >

1 And Abraham adds and takes a wife, and her name [is] Keturah;
Abraham waree ɔbea foforo bi a ne din de Ketura.
2 and she bears to him Zimran, and Jokshan, and Medan, and Midian, and Ishbak, and Shuah.
Abraham ne Ketura woo saa mma a wɔn din didi so yi: Simran, Yoksan, Medan, Midian, Yisbak ne Sua.
3 And Jokshan has begotten Sheba and Dedan; and the sons of Dedan were Asshurim, and Letushim, and Leummim;
Yoksan woo Seba ne Dedan. Dedan asefo ne Asurfo, Letusfo ne Leumfo.
4 and the sons of Midian [are] Ephah, and Epher, and Enoch, and Abidah, and Eldaah: all these [are] sons of Keturah.
Midian woo Efa, Efer, Henok, Abida ne Eldaa. Eyinom nyinaa yɛ Ketura asefo.
5 And Abraham gives all that he has to Isaac;
Abraham de nʼagyapade nyinaa maa Isak.
6 and to the sons of the concubines whom Abraham has, Abraham has given gifts, and sends them away from his son Isaac (in his being yet alive) eastward, to the east country.
Nanso bere a ɔte ase no, ɔmaa ne mpenamma akyɛde, na oyii wɔn fii ne babarima Isak nkyɛn ma wɔkɔɔ apuei fam asase bi so.
7 And these [are] the days of the years of the life of Abraham, which he lived, one hundred and seventy-five years;
Abraham nkwanna nyinaa kosii mfe ɔha aduɔson anum.
8 and Abraham expires, and dies in a good old age, aged and satisfied, and is gathered to his people.
Abraham nyin bɔɔ akwakoraa posoposo ansa na ɔrewu akɔka ne mpanyimfo ho.
9 And his sons Isaac and Ishmael bury him at the cave of Machpelah, at the field of Ephron, son of Zoar the Hittite, which [is] before Mamre—
Ne mmabarima Isak ne Ismael siee no wɔ Makpela boda a ɛwɔ Efron no mu. Na ɛhɔ yɛ Hetini Sohar babarima no afuw a ɛwɔ Mamrɛ apuei fam.
10 the field which Abraham bought from the sons of Heth—there Abraham has been buried, and his wife Sarah.
Eyi ne asase a Abraham tɔ fii Hetifo nkyɛn no. Ɛhɔ na wosiee Abraham ne ne yere Sara.
11 And it comes to pass after the death of Abraham, that God blesses his son Isaac; and Isaac dwells by the Well of the Living One, my Beholder.
Abraham wu akyi no, Onyankopɔn hyiraa ne ba Isak a na saa bere no ɔte Beer-Lahai-Roi abura no ho no.
12 And these [are] the generations of Ishmael, Abraham’s son, whom Hagar the Egyptian, Sarah’s handmaid, has borne to Abraham;
Eyi ne Abraham babarima Ismael a Sara afenaa Hagar a ɔyɛ Misraimni no woo no maa Abraham no asefo ho asɛm.
13 and these [are] the names of the sons of Ishmael, by their names, according to their births: firstborn of Ishmael, Nebajoth; and Kedar, and Adbeel, and Mibsam,
Wɔn a wodidi so yi yɛ Ismael mmabarima a wɔabobɔ wɔn din fi mpanyin mu no. Na Nebaiot yɛ Ismael abakan. Wɔn a wodidi so yi nso yɛ Kedar, Adbeel, Mibsam,
14 and Mishma, and Dumah, and Massa,
Misma, Duma, Masa,
15 Hadar, and Tema, Jetur, Naphish, and Kedemah:
Hadad, Tema, Yetur, Nafis ne Kedema.
16 these are sons of Ishmael, and these [are] their names, by their villages, and by their towers; twelve princes according to their peoples.
Saa din a wɔabobɔ yi yɛ Ismael mmabarima no. Saa din yi na ɛdeda mmusuakuw dumien ne wɔn atenae so.
17 And these [are] the years of the life of Ishmael, one hundred and thirty-seven years; and he expires, and dies, and is gathered to his people;
Ismael dii mfirihyia ɔha aduasa ason ansa na ɔrewu. Owu ma wosiee no wɔ ne nkurɔfo mu.
18 and they dwell from Havilah to Shur, which [is] before Egypt, in [your] going toward Asshur; in the presence of all his brothers has he fallen.
Ismael asefo yi tenatenaa nsase a efi Hawila kosi Sur a ɛbɛn Misraim pɛɛ wɔ Asiria ntentenso. Daa na akokoakoko wɔ mmusuakuw yi ntam.
19 And these [are] the generations of Isaac, Abraham’s son: Abraham has begotten Isaac;
Abraham babarima Isak ne nʼasefo ho asɛm ni. Abraham woo Isak.
20 and Isaac is a son of forty years in his taking Rebekah, daughter of Bethuel the Aramean, from Padan-Aram, sister of Laban the Aramean, to him for a wife.
Isak dii mfirihyia aduanan no, ɔwaree Rebeka a ɔyɛ Aramni Betuel a ofi Paddan-Aram no babea. Rebeka yɛ Aramni Laban nuabea.
21 And Isaac makes plea to YHWH before his wife, for she [is] barren: and YHWH accepts his plea, and his wife Rebekah conceives,
Isak waree Rebeka mfe bebree a na wɔnwo. Enti Isak bɔɔ Awurade mpae, srɛɛ ɔba maa ne yere. Akyiri no, Awurade tiee ne mpaebɔ, maa ne yere Rebeka nyinsɛnee.
22 and the children struggle together within her, and she says, “If [it is] right—why [am] I thus?” And she goes to seek YHWH.
Bere a Rebeka nyinsɛnee no, ɛtɔ da a, na mmofra no di aperepere wɔ ne yafunu mu. Sɛ ɛba saa a, obisa ne ho se, “Dɛn na ɛreyɛ me yi?” Afei, ɔbɔɔ mpae bisaa Awurade nea ɛkyerɛ.
23 And YHWH says to her, “Two nations [are] in your womb, and two peoples from your bowels are parted; and the [one] people is stronger than the [other] people; and the older serves the younger.”
Awurade buaa no se, “Aman abien na wɔwɔ wo yafunu mu. Wɔbɛtetew nnipa baanu a wɔwɔ wo yafunu mu no mu. Mmofra baanu no, ɔbaako asefo bɛyɛ ahoɔdenfo asen ne nua a ɔka ne ho no asefo. Na ɔpanyin no bɛsom akumaa no.”
24 And her days to bear are fulfilled, and behold, twins [are] in her womb;
Rebeka awo duu so no, ɔwoo ntaten.
25 and the first comes out all red as a hairy robe, and they call his name Esau;
Na nea odii kan bae no yɛ ɔkɔkɔɔ a ne ho nwi yɛ kuhaa te sɛ nea ɔhyɛ nwi atade. Enti wɔtoo no din Esau.
26 and afterward his brother has come out, and his hand is taking hold on Esau’s heel, and one calls his name Jacob; and Isaac [is] a son of sixty years in her bearing them.
Eyi akyi no, ne nua no bae a na ne nsa kura Esau nantin; enti wɔtoo ne din Yakob. Rebeka woo wɔn no, na Isak adi mfe aduosia.
27 And the youths grew, and Esau is a man acquainted [with] hunting, a man of the field; and Jacob [is] a plain man, inhabiting tents;
Mmofra no nyin no, Esau bɛyɛɛ ɔbɔmmɔfo a ɔtow a, ɔmfom. Na ɔyɛ ha fa wuram baabiara. Yakob nso bɛyɛɛ obi a ɔyɛ komm a ɔmpɛ ne ho asɛm. Na bere biara, ɔpɛ sɛ ɔtena fie.
28 and Isaac loves Esau, for [his] game [is] in his mouth; and Rebekah is loving Jacob.
Na Isak pɛ Esau asɛm yiye, efisɛ na bere biara ɔkɔyɛ ha de hanam a Isak pɛ ba fie. Nanso na Rebeka de, ɔpɛ Yakob asɛm.
29 And Jacob boils stew, and Esau comes in from the field, and he [is] weary;
Da bi a Esau fi wuram bae a na ɔkɔm de no yiye no, ɔbɛtoo sɛ ne nua kumaa Yakob nso renoa aduan bi a ani yɛ kɔkɔɔ na ɛyɛ akɔnnɔ nso.
30 and Esau says to Jacob, “Please let me eat some of this red-red thing, for I [am] weary”; therefore [one] has called his name Edom;
Ɔka kyerɛɛ Yakob se, “Mesrɛ wo, ma me wʼaduan a woanoa yi bi nni!” Ɛno nti na wɔfrɛ Esau sɛ Edom, a nkyerɛase ne ade kɔkɔɔ.
31 and Jacob says, “Sell your birthright to me today.”
Yakob buae se, “Tɔn wo panyin no ma me ansa.”
32 And Esau says, “Behold, I am going to die, and what is this to me—a birthright?”
Esau kae se, “Ɔkɔm rekum me, na mede panyin reyɛ dɛn?”
33 And Jacob says, “Swear to me today”: and he swears to him, and sells his birthright to Jacob;
Yakob buaa Esau se, “Mate, ka ntam kyerɛ me wɔ Onyankopɔn anim sɛ, panyin no yɛ me dea.” Esau kaa ntam no de tɔn ne panyin no maa ne nua kumaa Yakob.
34 and Jacob has given bread and stew of lentils to Esau, and he eats, and drinks, and rises, and goes; and Esau despises the birthright.
Enti Yakob maa Esau aduan no bi ma odii. Ɔnom nsu guu so, sɔre kɔɔ ne kwan. Eyi ne ɔkwan a Esau faa so tɔn ne panyin no.
