Genesis 25

1 Abraham took another wife, and her name was Keturah.

١ وَعَادَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ فَاتَّخَذَ لِنَفْسِهِ زَوْجَةً تُدْعَى قَطُورَةَ،

2 She bore him Zimran, Jokshan, Medan, Midian, Ishbak, and Shuah.

٢ فَأَنْجَبَتْ لَهُ زِمْرَانَ وَيَقْشَانَ وَمَدَانَ وَمِدْيَانَ وَيِشْبَاقَ وَشُوحاً.

3 Jokshan became the father of Sheba, and Dedan. The sons of Dedan were Asshurim, Letushim, and Leummim.

٣ وَأَنْجَبَ يَقْشَانُ شَبَا وَدَدَانَ. أَمَّا أَبْنَاءُ دَدَانَ فَهُمْ: أَشُّورِيمُ وَلَطُوشِيمُ وَلأُمِّيمُ.

4 The sons of Midian: Ephah, Epher, Hanoch, Abida, and Eldaah. All these were the children of Keturah.

٤ وَأَبْنَاءُ مِدْيَانَ هُمْ: عَيْفَةُ وَعِفْرُ وَحَنُوكُ وَأَبِيدَاعُ، وَأَلْدَعَةُ. وَهَؤُلاءِ جَمِيعاً مِنْ ذُرِّيَّةِ قَطُورَةَ.

5 And Abraham gave all that he owned to his son Isaac,

٥ وَوَرَّثَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ إِسْحاقَ كُلَّ مَالَهُ.

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.

٦ أَمَّا أَبْنَاؤُهُ مِنْ سَرَارِيهِ فَأَعْطَاهُمْ إِبْرَاهِيمُ عَطَايَا، وَصَرَفَهُمْ فِي أَثْنَاءِ حَيَاتِهِ نَحْوَ أَرْضِ الْمَشْرِقِ بَعِيداً عَنْ إِسْحاقَ ابْنِهِ.

7 This was the length of Abraham's life: one hundred seventy-five years.

٧ وَعَاشَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ مِئَةً وَخَمْساً وَسَبْعِينَ سَنَةً.

8 Abraham breathed his last, and died in a good old age, an old man and satisfied, and was gathered to his people.

٨ ثُمَّ مَاتَ بِشَيْبَةٍ صَالِحَةٍ وَانْضَمَّ إِلَى أَسْلافِهِ،

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,

٩ فَدَفَنَهُ ابْنَاهُ إِسْحاقُ وَإِسْمَاعِيلُ فِي مَغَارَةِ الْمَكْفِيلَةِ، فِي حَقْلِ عِفْرُونَ بْنِ صُوحَرَ الْحِثِّيِّ مُقَابِلَ مَمْرَا،

10 the field which Abraham purchased from the sons of Heth. Abraham was buried there with Sarah, his wife.

١٠ وَهُوَ الْحَقْلُ الَّذِي اشْتَرَاهُ إِبْرَاهِيمُ مِنَ الْحِثِّيِّينَ، وَفِيهِ دُفِنَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ وَزَوْجَتُهُ سَارَةُ.

11 It happened after the death of Abraham that God blessed Isaac, his son. Isaac lived by Beer Lahai Roi.

١١ وَبَعْدَ وَفَاةِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بَارَكَ اللهُ إِسْحاقَ ابْنَهُ، وَأَقَامَ إِسْحاقُ عِنْدَ بِئْرِ لَحَيْ رُئِي.

12 Now these are the generations of Ishmael, Abraham's son, whom Hagar the Egyptian, Sarah's servant, bore to Abraham.

١٢ وَهَذَا سِجِلُّ مَوَالِيدِ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الَّذِي أَنْجَبَتْهُ هَاجَرُ الْمِصْرِيَّةُ جَارِيَةُ سَارَةَ لإِبْرَاهِيمَ.

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,

١٣ وَهَذِهِ أَسْمَاءُ أَبْنَاءِ إِسْمَاعِيلَ مَدَوَّنَةً حَسَبَ تَرْتِيبِ وِلادَتِهِمْ: نَبَايُوتُ بِكْرُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، وَقِيدَارُ وَأَدَبْئِيلُ وَمِبْسَامُ،

14 Mishma, Dumah, Massa,

١٤ وَمِشْمَاعُ وَدُومَةُ وَمَسَّا،

15 Hadad, Tema, Jetur, Naphish, and Kedemah.

١٥ وَحَدَارُ وَتَيْمَا وَيَطُورُ وَنَافِيشُ وَقِدْمَةُ.

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.

١٦ هَؤُلاءِ هُمْ بَنُو إِسْمَاعِيلَ، وَهَذِهِ هِيَ أَسْمَاؤُهُمْ حَسَبَ دِيَارِهِمْ وَحُصُونِهِمْ، وَقَدْ صَارُوا اثْنَي عَشَرَ رَئِيساً لاثْنَتَيْ عَشْرَةَ قَبِيلَةً.

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.

١٧ وَمَاتَ إِسْمَاعِيلُ وَلَهُ مِنَ الْعُمْرِ مِئَةٌ وَسَبْعٌ وَثَلاثُونَ سَنَةً، وَلَحِقَ بِقَوْمِهِ.

18 They lived from Havilah to Shur, which is near Egypt, all the way to Asshur. He settled near all his kinsmen.

١٨ أَمَّا ذُرِّيَّتُهُ فَقَدِ انْتَشَرَتْ مِنْ حَوِيلَةَ إِلَى شُورَ الْمُتَاخِمَةِ لِمِصْرَ فِي اتِّجَاهِ أَشُّورَ، وَكَانَتْ عَلَى عَدَاءٍ مَعَ بَقِيَّةِ إِخْوَتِهَا.

19 These are the generations of Isaac, Abraham's son. Abraham became the father of Isaac.

١٩ وَهَذَا سِجِلُّ مَوَالِيدِ إِسْحاقَ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ. أَنْجَبَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ إِسْحاقَ.

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.

٢٠ وَكَانَ إِسْحاقُ فِي الأَرْبَعِينَ مِنْ عُمْرِهِ عِنْدَمَا تَزَوَّجَ رِفْقَةَ بِنْتَ بَتُوئِيلَ الأَرَامِيِّ مِنْ سَهْلِ أَرَامَ، وَأُخْتَ لابَانَ الأَرَامِيِّ.

21 Isaac prayed for his wife, because she was barren. And God was moved by his prayer, and Rebekah his wife conceived.

٢١ وَصَلَّى إِسْحاقُ إِلَى الرَّبِّ مِنْ أَجْلِ امْرَأَتِهِ لأَنَّهَا كَانَتْ عَاقِراً، فَاسْتَجَابَ لَهُ الرَّبُّ، فَحَمَلَتْ رِفْقَةُ زَوْجَتُهُ.

22 The children struggled together within her. She said, "If all is well, why am I like this?" She went to inquire of God.

٢٢ وَإِذْ تَصَارَعَ الطِّفْلانِ فِي بَطْنِهَا قَالَتْ: «إِنْ كَانَ الأَمْرُ هَكَذَا فَمَالِي وَالْحَبَلُ؟» وَمَضَتْ لِتَسْتَفْهِمَ مِنَ الرَّبِّ

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."

٢٣ فَقَالَ لَهَا الرَّبُّ: «فِي أَحْشَائِكِ أُمَّتَانِ، يَتَفَرَّعُ مِنْهُمَا شَعْبَانِ. شَعْبٌ يَسْتَقْوِي عَلَى شَعْبٍ، وَكَبِيرٌ يُسْتَعْبَدُ لِصَغِيرٍ».

24 When the time came for her to give birth, look, there were twins in her womb.

٢٤ وَعِنْدَمَا اكْتَمَلَتْ أَيَّامُهَا لِتَلِدَ إِذَا فِي أَحْشَائِهَا تَوْأَمَانِ.

25 The first came out red all over, like a hairy garment. They named him Esau.

٢٥ فَخَرَجَ الأَوَّلُ مَكْسُوّاً بِالشَّعْرِ وَكَأَنَّهُ يَرْتَدِي فَرْوَةً حَمْرَاءَ، فَدَعَوْهُ عِيسُو (وَمَعْنَاهُ أَشْعَرُ).

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.

٢٦ ثُمَّ خَرَجَ أَخُوهُ وَيَدُهُ قَابِضَةٌ عَلَى عَقِبِ عِيسُو فَدَعَوْهُ يَعْقُوبَ (وَمَعَنَاهُ مُتَعَقِّبٌ). وَكَانَ إِسْحاقُ فِي السِّتِّينَ مِنْ عُمْرِهِ عِنْدَمَا أَنْجَبَتْهُمَا لَهُ رِفْقَةُ.

27 The boys grew. Esau was a skillful hunter, a man of the field. Jacob was a quiet man, living in tents.

٢٧ وَكَبُرَ الْوَلَدَانِ، فَأَصْبَحَ عِيسُو صَيَّاداً مَاهِراً وَرَجُلَ بَرِّيَّةٍ، بَيْنَمَا كَانَ يَعْقُوبُ رَجُلاً هَادِئاً يُقِيمُ فِي الْخِيَامِ.

28 And Isaac loved Esau, because he had a taste for wild animals, but Rebekah loved Jacob.

٢٨ وَأَحَبَّ إِسْحاقُ عِيسُو لأَنَّهُ كَانَ يَأْكُلُ مِنْ صَيْدِهِ، أَمَّا رِفْقَةُ فَقَدْ أَحَبَّتْ يَعْقُوبَ.

29 Now Jacob was cooking stew, and Esau came in from the field, and he was famished.

٢٩ وَذَاتَ مَرَّةٍ عَادَ عِيسُو مِنَ الْحَقْلِ مُرْهَقاً فَوَجَدَ يَعْقُوبَ قَدْ طَبَخَ طَعَاماً،

30 Esau said to Jacob, "Please feed me with that same red stew, for I am famished." Therefore his name was called Edom.

٣٠ فَقَالَ عِيسُو لِيَعْقُوبَ: «أَطْعِمْنِي مِنْ هَذَا الطَّبِيخِ الأَحْمَرِ لأَنَّنِي جَائِعٌ جِدّاً». لِهَذَا دُعِيَ عِيسُو بِأَدُومَ.

31 Jacob said, "First, sell me your birthright."

٣١ فَقَالَ يَعْقُوبُ: «بِعْنِي أَوَّلاً امْتِيَازَاتِ بَكُورِيَّتِكَ».

32 Esau said, "Look, I am about to die. What good is the birthright to me?"

٣٢ فَقَالَ عِيسُو: «أَنَا لابُدَّ مَائِتٌ، فَأَيُّ نَفْعٍ لِي مِنْ بَكُورِيَّتِي؟»

33 Jacob said, "Swear to me first." So he swore to him, and he sold his birthright to Jacob.

٣٣ فَأَجَابَهُ يَعْقُوبُ: «احْلِفْ لِي أَوَّلًا». فَحَلَفَ لَهُ، وَبَاعَ امْتِيَازَاتِ بَكُورِيَّتِهِ لِيَعْقُوبَ.

34 Jacob gave Esau bread and stew of lentils. He ate and drank, rose up, and went his way. So Esau despised his birthright.

٣٤ عِنْدَئِذٍ أَعْطَى يَعْقُوبُ عِيسُو خُبْزاً وَطَبِيخَ عَدَسٍ، فَأَكَلَ وَشَرِبَ ثُمَّ قَامَ وَمَضَى فِي سَبِيلِهِ. وَهَكَذَا احْتَقَرَ عِيسُو امْتِيَازَاتِ الْبَكُورِيَّةِ.
