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

Nowe Abraham had taken him another wife called Keturah,

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

Which bare him Zimran, and Iokshan, and Medan, and Midian, and Ishbak, and Shuah.

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

And Iokshan begate Sheba, and Dedan: And the sonnes of Dedan were Asshurim, and Letushim, and Leummim.

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

Also the sonnes of Midian were Ephah, and Epher, and Hanoch, and Abida, and Eldaah all these were the sonnes of Keturah.

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

And Abraham gaue all his goods to Izhak,

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.

But vnto the sonnes of the concubines, which Abraham had, Abraham gaue giftes, and sent them away from Izhak his sonne (while he yet liued) Eastward to the East countrey.

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

And this is the age of Abrahams life, which he liued, an hundreth seuentie and fiue yeere.

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

Then Abraham yeelded the spirit, and died in a good age, an olde man, and of great yeeres, and was gathered to his people.

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,

And his sonnes, Izhak and Ishmael buryed him in the caue of Machpelah, in the fielde of Ephron sonne of Zohar the Hittite, before Mamre.

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

Which fielde Abraham bought of the Hittites, where Abraham was buryed with Sarah his wife.

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

And after the death of Abraham God blessed Izhak his sonne, and Izhak dwelt by Beer-lahai-roi.

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

Nowe these are the generations of Ishmael Abrahams sonne, whome Hagar the Egyptian Sarahs handmayde bare vnto Abraham.

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,

And these are the names of the sonnes of Ishmael, name by name, according to their kinreds; the eldest sonne of Ishmael was Nebaioth, then Kedar, and Adbeel, and Mibsam,

14 Mishma, Dumah, Massa,

And Mishma, and Dumah, and Massa,

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

Hadar, and Tema, Ietur, Naphish, and Kedemah.

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.

These are the sonnes of Ishmael, and these are their names, by their townes and by their castles: to wit, twelue princes of their nations.

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.

(And these are the yeeres of the life of Ishmael, an hundreth thirtie and seuen yeere, and he yeelded the spirit, and dyed, and was gathered vnto his people)

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

And they dwelt from Hauilah vnto Shur, that is towardes Egypt, as thou goest to Asshur. Ishmael dwelt in the presence of all his brethren.

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

Likewise these are the generations of Izhak Abrahams sonne Abraham begate Izhak,

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.

And Izhak was fourtie yeere olde, when he tooke Rebekah to wife, the daughter of Bethuel the Aramite of Padan Aram, and sister to Laban the Aramite.

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

And Izhak prayed vuto the Lord for his wife, because she was barren: and the Lord was intreated of him, and Rebekah his wife conceiued,

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

But the children stroue together within her: therefore shee sayde, Seeing it is so, why am I thus? wherefore she went to aske the Lord.

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."

And the Lord sayd to her, Two nations are in thy wombe, and two maner of people shalbe diuided out of thy bowels, and the one people shall be mightier then the other, and the elder shall serue the yonger.

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

Therefore when her time of deliuerance was fulfilled, behold, twinnes were in her wombe.

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

So he that came out first was red, and he was all ouer as a rough garment, and they called his name 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.

And afterward came his brother out, and his hande helde Esau by the heele: therefore his name was called Iaakob. Nowe Izhak was threescore yeere olde when Rebekah bare them.

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

And the boyes grew, and Esau was a cunning hunter, and liued in the fields: but Iaakob was a plaine man, and dwelt in tentes.

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

And Izhak loued Esau, for venison was his meate, but Rebekah loued Iaakob.

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

Nowe Iaakob sod pottage, and Esau came from the fielde and was wearie.

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

Then Esau sayd to Iaakob, Let me eate, I pray thee, of that pottage so red, for I am wearie. Therefore was his name called Edom.

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

And Iaakob sayd, Sell me euen nowe thy birthright.

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

And Esau sayd, Lo, I am almost dead, what is then this birthright to me?

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

Iaakob then said, Sweare to me euen now. And he sware to him, and solde his birthright vnto Iaakob.

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

Then Iaakob gaue Esau bread and pottage of lentiles: and he did eate and drinke, and rose vp, and went his way: So Esau contemned his birthright.
