< Genesis 25 >

1 Abraham took another wife, and her name was Keturah.
अब्राहामले अर्की एउटी पत्‍नी विवाह गरे ।
2 She bore him Zimran, Jokshan, Medan, Midian, Ishbak, and Shuah.
तिनको नाउँ कतूरा थियो । तिनले अब्राहामबाट जिम्रान, योक्षान, मदान, मिद्यान, यिशबाक र शूहलाई जन्‍माइन्‌ ।
3 Jokshan became the father of Sheba, and Dedan. The sons of Dedan were Asshurim, Letushim, and Leummim.
योक्षान शेबा र ददानका पिता भए । अश्‍शूरी, लतूशी र लऊम्‍मीहरू ददानका सन्‍तान थिए ।
4 The sons of Midian: Ephah, Epher, Hanoch, Abida, and Eldaah. All these were the children of Keturah.
मिद्यानका छोराहरूचाहिँ एपा, एपेर, हानोक, अबीदा र एल्‍दा थिए । यी सबै कतूराका सन्‍तान थिए ।
5 And Abraham gave all that he owned to his son Isaac,
अब्राहामले आफूसँग भएका सबै थोक इसहाकलाई दिए ।
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.
तर आफू जीवित छँदै तिनका उपपत्‍नीपट्टिका छोराहरूलाई उनले उपहारहरू दिए, र आफ्‍ना छोरा इसहाकबाट छुट्‍याएर तिनीहरूलाई पूर्व देशतिर पठाए ।
7 This was the length of Abraham's life: one hundred seventy-five years.
अब्राहाम जम्‍मा एक सय पचहत्तर वर्षसम्‍म बाँचे ।
8 Abraham breathed his last, and died in a good old age, an old man and satisfied, and was gathered to his people.
अब्राहाम पुरा जीवन जिएर बुढ़ेसकालमा मरे, र आफ्‍ना मरेका पिता-पुर्खाहरूसँग मिल्‍न गए ।
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,
तिनका छोराहरू इसहाक र इश्‍माएलले तिनलाई हित्ती सोहोरको छोरा एप्रोनको खेतमा भएको मम्रेनजिकको मक्‍पेलाको ओडारमा गाडे ।
10 the field which Abraham purchased from the sons of Heth. Abraham was buried there with Sarah, his wife.
त्‍यो खेत अब्राहामले हेतका छोराहरूबाट किनेका थिए । अब्राहाम आफ्‍नी पत्‍नी सारासित त्‍यहीँ नै गाडिए ।
11 It happened after the death of Abraham that God blessed Isaac, his son. Isaac lived by Beer Lahai Roi.
अब्राहामको मृत्‍युपछि परमेश्‍वरले तिनका छोरा इसहाकलाई आशिष्‌ दिनुभयो, र इसहाक बेअर-लहै-रोइ नजिकै बसोबास गरे ।
12 Now these are the generations of Ishmael, Abraham's son, whom Hagar the Egyptian, Sarah's servant, bore to Abraham.
साराकी कमारी मिश्री हागारपट्टिबाट जन्‍मेको अब्राहामको छोरो इश्‍माएलका सन्तान यिनै थिए ।
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,
जन्‍म क्रमको सूचीअनुसार इश्‍माएलका छोराहरूका नाउँ यी नै थिएः इश्‍माएलको जेठो छोरो नबायोत, केदार, अदबेल,
14 Mishma, Dumah, Massa,
मिब्‍साम, मिश्‍मा, दुमा, मस्‍सा,
15 Hadad, Tema, Jetur, Naphish, and Kedemah.
हदद, तेमा, यतूर, नापीश र केदमा ।
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.
इश्‍माएलका छोराहरू यी नै थिए । तिनीहरूका बस्‍ती र छाउनीहरूअनुसार ती बाह्र कुलनायकका नाउँ यी नै थिए ।
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.
इश्‍माएलको जम्‍मा उमेर एक सय सैँतिस वर्ष हुँदा तिनको मृत्‍यु भयो र तिनी आफ्‍ना पिता-पुर्खाहरूसँगै मिल्‍न गए ।
18 They lived from Havilah to Shur, which is near Egypt, all the way to Asshur. He settled near all his kinsmen.
तिनीहरूको बसोबास मिश्रको सिमानानजिक भएको अश्‍शूर देशतिर पर्ने हवीलादेखि शूरसम्‍म थियो । तिनीहरू एक-अर्काको शत्रुतामा बसे ।
19 These are the generations of Isaac, Abraham's son. Abraham became the father of Isaac.
अब्राहामका छोरा इसहाकको वृत्तान्‍त यही हो । अब्राहाम इसहाकका पिता भए ।
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.
पद्दन-आरामका अरामी बतूएलकी छोरी अरामी लाबानकी बहिनी रिबेकासँग विवाह गर्दा इसहाक जम्मा चालिस वर्षका थिए ।
21 Isaac prayed for his wife, because she was barren. And God was moved by his prayer, and Rebekah his wife conceived.
तिनी बाँझी भएकी हुनाले इसहाकले आफ्‍नी पत्‍नीको निम्‍ति परमप्रभुसँग प्रार्थना गरे । परमप्रभुले तिनको प्रार्थना सुन्‍नुभयो, र तिनकी पत्‍नी रिबेका गर्भवती भइन्‌ ।
22 The children struggled together within her. She said, "If all is well, why am I like this?" She went to inquire of God.
तिनको गर्भमा भएका बालकहरू एक-अर्कासँग लड्न लागे, र तिनले भनिन् “मलाई किन यस्‍तो भयो?” तिनले यसको बारेमा परमप्रभुसँग सोधिन् ।
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."
परमप्रभुले तिनलाई भन्‍नुभयो, “तेरो कोखमा दुई जाति छन्, तेरो गर्भदेखि नै दुई जाति छुट्टिनेछन् । एक जाति अर्कोभन्‍दा बलवान्‌ हुनेछ, र जेठाले कान्‍छाको सेवा गर्नेछ ।”
24 When the time came for her to give birth, look, there were twins in her womb.
तिनको सुत्‍केरी हुने बेला आउँदा तिनको कोखमा जुम्‍ल्‍याहा थिए ।
25 The first came out red all over, like a hairy garment. They named him Esau.
जेठोचाहिँ शरीरभरि रौँको लुगा लगाएजस्‍तै रातो वर्णको जन्‍म्‍यो । तिनीहरूले त्‍यसको नाउँ एसाव राखे ।
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.
त्‍यसपछि त्‍यसको भाइ बाहिर निस्क्यो । त्यसको हातले एसावको कुर्कुच्‍चा समातिरहेको थियो । त्‍यसको नाउँ याकूब राखियो । इसाहककी पत्‍नीले तिनीहरूलाई जन्‍माउँदा तिनी साठी वर्ष पुगेका थिए ।
27 The boys grew. Esau was a skillful hunter, a man of the field. Jacob was a quiet man, living in tents.
बालकहरू बढे, र एसावचाहिँ सिपालु सिकारी र मैदानमा डुलिहिँड्‌ने मानिस भए, र याकूबचाहिँ पालमा बसिरहने शान्‍त स्‍वभावका मानिस भए ।
28 And Isaac loved Esau, because he had a taste for wild animals, but Rebekah loved Jacob.
इसहाकले एसावलाई माया गर्थे, किनभने उनले शिकार गरेर ल्‍याएको मासु तिनले खान पाउँथे । तर रिबेकाले चाहिँ याकूबलाई माया गर्थिन्‌ ।
29 Now Jacob was cooking stew, and Esau came in from the field, and he was famished.
याकूबले सुरुवा पकाए । एसाव मैदानबाट आए, र उनी भोकले कमजोर भएका थिए ।
30 Esau said to Jacob, "Please feed me with that same red stew, for I am famished." Therefore his name was called Edom.
एसावले याकूबलाई भने, “कृपया, मलाई त्‍यो रातो सुरुवा खान देऊ, म थकित छु ।” यसैकारण उनलाई एदोम भनियो ।
31 Jacob said, "First, sell me your birthright."
याकूबले भने, “पहिले तपाईंको ज्‍येष्‍ठ-अधिकार मलाई बेच्‍नुहोस्‌ ।”
32 Esau said, "Look, I am about to die. What good is the birthright to me?"
एसावले भने, “हेर, म त मर्नै आँटेको छु । मलाई त्‍यो ज्‍येष्‍ठ-अधिकारको के काम?”
33 Jacob said, "Swear to me first." So he swore to him, and he sold his birthright to Jacob.
याकूबले भने, “पहिले मसँग शपथ खानुहोस् ।” तब एसावले शपथ खाए, र यसरी उनले आफ्‍नो ज्‍येष्‍ठ-अधिकार याकूबलाई बेचे ।
34 Jacob gave Esau bread and stew of lentils. He ate and drank, rose up, and went his way. So Esau despised his birthright.
याकूबले एसावलाई रोटी र दालको सुरुवा दिए । एसावले खानपान गरे अनि उठेर आफ्‍नो बाटो लागे । यसरी एसावले आफ्‍नो ज्‍येष्‍ठ-अधिकारलाई लत्त्याए ।
