Genesis 25
1 Abraham took another wife, and her name was Keturah.
Abrahamu alioa mke mwingine, ambaye jina lake aliitwa Ketura.
2 She bore him Zimran, Jokshan, Medan, Midian, Ishbak, and Shuah.
Huyu alimzalia Zimrani, Yokshani, Medani, Midiani, Ishbaki na Shua.
3 Jokshan became the father of Sheba, and Dedan. The sons of Dedan were Asshurim, Letushim, and Leummim.
Yokshani alikuwa baba wa Sheba na Dedani, wazao wa Dedani walikuwa Waashuri, Waletushi na Waleumi.
4 The sons of Midian: Ephah, Epher, Hanoch, Abida, and Eldaah. All these were the children of Keturah.
Wana wa Midiani walikuwa Efa, Eferi, Hanoki, Abida na Eldaa. Hawa wote walikuwa uzao wa Ketura.
5 And Abraham gave all that he owned to his son Isaac,
Abrahamu akamwachia Isaki kila kitu alichokuwa nacho.
6 and to the sons of Abraham's secondary wives, Abraham gave gifts. He sent them away from Isaac his son, while he was still living, eastward, to the east country.
Lakini Abrahamu alipokuwa bado hai, akawapa watoto wa masuria wake zawadi, kisha akawaondoa waende kuishi pande za mashariki mbali na mwanawe Isaki.
7 This was the length of Abraham's life: one hundred seventy-five years.
Kwa jumla, Abrahamu aliishi miaka 175.
8 Abraham breathed his last, and died in a good old age, an old man and satisfied, and was gathered to his people.
Ndipo Abrahamu akapumua pumzi ya mwisho na akafa akiwa mwenye umri mzuri, mzee aliyeshiba siku, naye akakusanywa pamoja na watu wake.
9 Isaac and Ishmael, his sons, buried him in the cave of Machpelah, in the field of Ephron, the son of Zohar the Hethite, which is near Mamre,
Watoto wake Isaki na Ishmaeli wakamzika katika pango la Makpela karibu na Mamre, katika shamba lililokuwa la Efroni mwana wa Sohari Mhiti,
10 the field which Abraham purchased from the sons of Heth. Abraham was buried there with Sarah, his wife.
Shamba ambalo Abrahamu alilinunua kwa Wahiti. Hapo ndipo Abrahamu alipozikwa pamoja na mkewe Sara.
11 It happened after the death of Abraham that God blessed Isaac, his son. Isaac lived by Beer Lahai Roi.
Baada ya kifo cha Abrahamu, Mungu akambariki mwanawe Isaki, ambaye baadaye aliishi karibu na Beer-Lahai-Roi.
12 Now these are the generations of Ishmael, Abraham's son, whom Hagar the Egyptian, Sarah's servant, bore to Abraham.
Hivi ndivyo vizazi vya Ishmaeli mtoto wa Abrahamu, ambaye mjakazi wake Sara, Hagari Mmisri, alimzalia Abrahamu.
13 These are the names of the sons of Ishmael, by their names, according to the order of their birth: the firstborn of Ishmael, Nebaioth, then Kedar, Adbeel, Mibsam,
Haya ndiyo majina ya wana wa Ishmaeli, yaliyoorodheshwa kulingana na jinsi walivyozaliwa: Mzaliwa wa kwanza wa Ishmaeli ni Nebayothi, akafuatia Kedari, Adbeeli, Mibsamu,
14 Mishma, Dumah, Massa,
Mishma, Duma, Masa,
15 Hadad, Tema, Jetur, Naphish, and Kedemah.
Hadadi, Tema, Yeturi, Nafishi na Kedema.
16 These are the sons of Ishmael, and these are their names, by their villages, and by their encampments: twelve princes, according to their clans.
Hawa walikuwa wana wa Ishmaeli na haya ni majina ya viongozi wa makabila kumi na mawili kulingana na makao yao na kambi zao.
17 These are the years of the life of Ishmael: one hundred thirty-seven years. He breathed his last and died, and was gathered to his people.
Kwa jumla Ishmaeli aliishi miaka 137. Akapumua pumzi ya mwisho, akafa, naye akakusanywa pamoja na watu wake.
18 They lived from Havilah to Shur, which is near Egypt, all the way to Asshur. He settled near all his kinsmen.
Wazao wa Ishmaeli waliishi kuanzia nchi ya Havila hadi Shuri, karibu na mpaka wa Misri, unapoelekea Ashuru. Hao waliishi kwa uhasama na ndugu zao wote.
19 These are the generations of Isaac, Abraham's son. Abraham became the father of Isaac.
Hivi ndivyo vizazi vya Isaki mwana wa Abrahamu. Abrahamu akamzaa Isaki,
20 Isaac was forty years old when he took Rebekah, the daughter of Bethuel the Aramean of Paddan Aram, the sister of Laban the Aramean, to be his wife.
Isaki alikuwa na umri wa miaka arobaini alipomwoa Rebeka binti Bethueli Mwaramu kutoka Padan-Aramu, nduguye Labani Mwaramu.
21 Isaac prayed for his wife, because she was barren. And God was moved by his prayer, and Rebekah his wife conceived.
Isaki akamwomba Bwana kwa ajili ya mke wake, kwa sababu alikuwa tasa. Bwana akajibu maombi yake na Rebeka mkewe akapata mimba.
22 The children struggled together within her. She said, "If all is well, why am I like this?" She went to inquire of God.
Watoto wakashindana tumboni mwake, akasema, “Kwa nini haya yanatokea kwangu?” Kwa hiyo akaenda kumuuliza Bwana.
23 And he said to her, "Two nations are in your womb. Two peoples will be separated from your body. The one people will be stronger than the other people. The elder will serve the younger."
Bwana akamjibu, “Mataifa mawili yamo tumboni mwako, na mataifa hayo mawili kutoka ndani yako watatenganishwa. Mmoja atakuwa na nguvu zaidi kuliko mwingine, na yule mkubwa atamtumikia yule mdogo.”
24 When the time came for her to give birth, look, there were twins in her womb.
Wakati wake wa kujifungua ulipotimia, walikuwepo mapacha wa kiume tumboni mwake.
25 The first came out red all over, like a hairy garment. They named him Esau.
Wa kwanza kuzaliwa alikuwa mwekundu, mwili wake wote ulikuwa kama mtu aliyevaa vazi lenye nywele; wakamwita jina lake Esau.
26 After that, his brother came out, and his hand had hold on Esau's heel. He was named Jacob. Isaac was sixty years old when she bore them.
Baadaye, ndugu yake akatoka, mkono wake ukiwa umemshika Esau kisigino; akaitwa jina lake Yakobo. Isaki alikuwa mwenye miaka sitini Rebeka alipowazaa.
27 The boys grew. Esau was a skillful hunter, a man of the field. Jacob was a quiet man, living in tents.
Watoto wakakua, naye Esau akakuwa mwindaji hodari, mtu wa mbugani, wakati Yakobo alikuwa mtu mtulivu, mwenye kukaa nyumbani.
28 And Isaac loved Esau, because he had a taste for wild animals, but Rebekah loved Jacob.
Isaki, ambaye alikuwa anapendelea zaidi nyama za porini, alimpenda Esau, bali Rebeka alimpenda Yakobo.
29 Now Jacob was cooking stew, and Esau came in from the field, and he was famished.
Siku moja Yakobo alipika mchuzi wa dengu, Esau akarudi kutoka porini akiwa na njaa kali.
30 Esau said to Jacob, "Please feed me with that same red stew, for I am famished." Therefore his name was called Edom.
Esau akamwambia Yakobo, “Haraka, nipe huo mchuzi mwekundu! Nina njaa kali sana!” (Hii ndiyo sababu pia aliitwa Edomu.)
31 Jacob said, "First, sell me your birthright."
Yakobo akamjibu, “Niuzie kwanza haki yako ya mzaliwa wa kwanza.”
32 Esau said, "Look, I am about to die. What good is the birthright to me?"
Esau akasema, “Tazama, mimi niko karibu ya kufa, itanifaa nini haki ya mzaliwa wa kwanza?”
33 Jacob said, "Swear to me first." So he swore to him, and he sold his birthright to Jacob.
Yakobo akamwambia, “Niapie kwanza.” Hivyo Esau akamwapia, akamuuzia Yakobo haki yake ya kuzaliwa.
34 Jacob gave Esau bread and stew of lentils. He ate and drank, rose up, and went his way. So Esau despised his birthright.
Ndipo Yakobo akampa Esau mkate na ule mchuzi wa dengu. Akala na kunywa, kisha akainuka akaenda zake. Kwa hiyo Esau alidharau haki yake ya mzaliwa wa kwanza.
