Genesis 25
1 [Some time after Sarah died], Abraham married another woman, whose name was Keturah.
Abraham'in ji numei khat aneibe kit in, amanu min chu Keturah ahi.
2 She later gave birth to six sons: Zimran, Jokshan, Medan, Midian, Ishbak, and Shuah.
Amanu chun cha hicheng hi ahing in, amaho se chu Zimran ahin, Jokshan ahin, Medan ahin, Ishbak ahin, chule Shuak ahiuvin;
3 Jokshan became the father of two sons, Sheba and Dedan. The descendants of Dedan were the Asshur people-group, the Letush people-group, and the Leum people-group.
Jokshan chun Sheba le Dedan ahingin, Dedan chilhah ho chu ahile Assurite ho ahin, Leteshite ho ahin, chule Leumimite jouse jong ahiuve.
4 The sons of Midian were Ephah, Epher, Hanoch, Abida, and Eldaah. They were all descendants of Keturah.
Midian chate ho chu Ephah ahin, Epher ahin, Hannoch ahin, Abida ahin chule Eldaah amaho jouse hi Abraham cha Keturah a konna peng ahiuve.
5 Abraham declared that after he died, Isaac would inherit everything he owned.
Chule Abraham'in anei jouse achapa Isaac chu apetan ahi.
6 But while Abraham was still living, he gave gifts to the sons of his (concubines/slaves that he had taken to be his secondary wives), and then he sent them away to live in a land to the east, to keep them far from his son Isaac.
Amavang Abraham'in athi masang in aji kopte cha ho jouse jong thilpeh anei soh keiyin chule nisolam gamma abon'un aki in chonsah tai.
7 Abraham lived until he was 175 years old.
Abraham chu kum jakhat le kum som sagi le kum nga alhing in;
8 He died at a very old age, joining his ancestors who had died previously [DOU].
Hichun Abraham kum sottah ahing in lolhing tah in ahinkho amang in aleiset hinkho abeitai, chuin ama apu apa amite to akivui thatai.
9 His sons Isaac and Ishmael buried his body in the cave at Machpelah area, near Mamre, in the field that Abraham had previously bought from Ephron, one of the descendants of Heth.
Chule achate ni Isaac le Ishmael in apa lhon Abraham chu songlhan keova Machpelah achun avui lhon tai. Hichu Mamre kom ahin hiche mun chu Ephron chapa Zohar Hittites ho komma kicho doh anahi.
10 Isaac and Ishmael buried his body there, where Abraham previously buried his wife Sarah.
Hiche gam hi Abraham'in Hite mite ho koma a inneipi Sarah kivuina dinga ana choh doh mun chu ahi.
11 After Abraham died, God blessed his son Isaac. And Isaac moved to live near Beer-Lahai-Roi.
Abraham thijou chun, Pathen in hatah in Isaac chu Beerlahoi-roi Negev mun a phatthei abohtan ahi.
12 (These are/I will now give a list of) the descendants of Abraham’s son, Ishmael, to whom Sarah’s female slave, Hagar from Egypt, had given birth.
Hiche hohi Ishmael chilhah Abraham chapa Hagar a kona hung peng Egypt mite numei Sarah sohnu akon ahi.
13 These are their names, in the order in which they were born: Ishmael’s oldest son was named Nebaioth. After him were born Kedar, Adbeel, Mibsam,
Anoija hohi Ishmael chilhah amin, anam, aphung dungyui ja kipe, apeng masa penpa Nebaioth ahin, Kedar ahin, Adbeel ahin, Mibsam ahin,
14 Mishma, Dumah, Massa,
Mishma ahin, Damah ahin, Masah ahin,
15 Hadar, Tema, Jetur, Naphish, and Kedemah.
Hadard ahin, Tema ahin, Jetur ahin Naphish ahin chule Kedarmah hicheng hi ahiuve.
16 The twelve sons of Ishmael became the leaders/chiefs of people-groups that had those names. They each had their own settlement and campsite.
Hichengse hi Ishmael chapate ahiuvin, aminu jong akhotin a kisem a chuleh a ngahmun dung-juiya akilah le aphung khaijin haosa chapa cheh som le ni alhing uve.
17 Ishmael lived until he was 137 years old. Then he died, [EUP] joining his ancestors who had previously died.
Chule Ishmael chu kum jakhat le kum somthum le kum sagi ahing in, chuin ama aleiset hinkho abeitan hichun apu apate along lup naova ama jong akichol dotai.
18 His descendants (settled/went to live) in the area between Shur and Havilah, near the border of Egypt as a person travels toward Asshur. All of their camps were close to each other (OR, they all frequently attacked each other).
Chule Ishmael chilhahte chun gam leiset Havilah apat Shur chan gei alodim un, hiche hi Assyria gam jotna Egypt gamto kinai Asshur ahung kipan ahi. Amaho chu asopi ule nao hotoh kivet dagunset in ana umjing uve.
19 (This is an account of/I will now tell you about) Abraham’s son, Isaac. Abraham became the father of Isaac,
Hiche hi Isaac Abraham chapa insung chilhah thusim ahi.
20 and when Isaac was 40 years old, he married Rebekah, the daughter of Bethuel. Bethuel was one of the descendants of Aram from Paddan-Aram. Rebekah was the sister of Laban, who belonged to the Aram people-group.
Chuin Isaac kum som li alhin in aji ding in Rebekah Paddan- Ram gam'a Bethuel chanu Aramean mi Laban sopinu chu a kipuiyin ahi.
21 Almost 20 years after they were married, Rebekah still had no children. So Isaac prayed to Yahweh concerning his wife, and Yahweh answered his prayer. His wife Rebekah became pregnant.
Isaac ajinu ding in Pathen heng'a ataovin ahi, ajeh chu aching in cha neilouva aum phat in, hichun Pathen'in Isaac taona chu asan pehtan ahile Rebekah chu ahung kikopmo tan naosen ni ahung kijil tan ahi.
22 She was carrying twins in her womb, and they kept jostling each other. So she said, “Why is it [that this is happening to me]?” So she asked Yahweh about it.
Hinlah naosen teni chu anu naobu sunga ahung kiboi jing lhonin hichun amanu Pathen dong dingin achen hiche hi itidan ham? ati.
23 Yahweh said to her, “The older one of your twins will serve the younger one. The twins will be ancestors of two nations. And those two people-groups will separate from each other.” [CHI]
Pathen in amanu ahoulim pi in “naobu sunga naocha teni chu nampi ni hung hiding hiche nam teni hi abulla patna hung kitoh mo peh lhon ding ahi, nam teni lah a khat hung hat intin, nacha teni lah a aupan anaopa chu ahin jenle ding ahi”.
24 When Rebekah gave birth, it was true! Twin boys were born!
Chuin naonei na ding phat ahung lhin chun Rebekah in naoni avop chu ahin kihet chen bep'in ahi.
25 The first one born was red, and his body had hair all over it, like a garment made of hair. So they named him Esau, [which sounds like the Hebrew word that means ‘hairy'].
Chuin ahung peng masa pachu asanin atahsa pumpi chu amul in atom in hichun ama chu Esau asah tauvin ahi.
26 Then his brother was born, grasping Esau’s heel. So they named him Jacob, [which sounds like the Hebrew word that means ‘heel’]. Isaac was 60 years old when the twins were born.
Phat chomkhat jou chun asopipa ahung peng lhatan akhut teni a chun a upa keng atuh chah kheh in, Hichea chu amapa min chu Jacob asah un, ajinun amani ahin peh pet hin Isaac chu kum som gup ana lhingtai.
27 When the boys grew up, Esau became a skilled hunter. He spent a lot of time out in the fields. Jacob was a quiet man who stayed close to the campsite.
Chapang teni chu ahung khanglen lhonin, Esau chu gamleng sakap them gam vahmi ahung hikhan, Jacob vang chu mi mong khat ahin pondal buh a umjing mi ahi.
28 Isaac liked Esau more, because he enjoyed the taste of the meat of the animals that Esau killed. But Rebekah liked Jacob more.
Isaac in Esau chu hatah in angailun ahi, Ajeh chu asa delsa ahin poh lut aneh jing jeh in, Hinlahh Rebekah in Jacob chu alungset lheh in ahi.
29 One day while Jacob was cooking some stew, Esau came home from the field, very hungry.
Nikhat chu Jacob in changchim ahon pet in Esau chu agamlen na a konin ahung lhung in, nasa tahin agil akeltan atha alhasam lheh tan ahi.
30 He said to Jacob, “Give me some of that red stew to eat right now, because I am very hungry!” [That is why Esau’s other name was Edom, [which sounds like the Hebrew word that means ‘red]’.]
Hijeh chun Esau in Jacob jah ahitin asei tai, “Kagil akel valtai na changchim hon salenglung chu them khat neipe tan” ati. Hijeh a chu amapa min Edom kisah ahi.
31 Jacob said, “I will give you some if you sell me (your birthright/the privileges you have because you are the firstborn son).”
Aphai, tin Jacob in adonbut in, “Amasa pen in na upat nahina chu neipe doh tan,” ati.
32 Esau replied, “Well, I am about to die [from being so hungry]. [If I die now], (my birthright will not benefit me./What good will my birthright be to me?)” [RHQ]
Esau in hitin aseiye, “Keima gilkella thi dinga um ka hitan hiche mi upa chu ipi kaphat chom pi ding ham?”
33 Jacob said, “(Swear to/Solemnly promise) me that you are giving me the privileges that you will have from being the firstborn son!” So that is what Esau did. He sold his birthright to Jacob.
Jacob in asei kit in, “Amasa pen a naki hahsel angaiye,” hichun Esau chu aki hahsel tan mi upa ahina chu Jacob komma akijoh doh tai.
34 Then Jacob gave to Esau some bread and some stew made of lentils/beans. Esau ate and drank, and then he got up and left. By doing that, Esau showed that he (was not interested in/did not value) the privileges that would be his because of being the firstborn son.
Hichun Jacob in Esau chu changlhah toh chang-noi apetan hichun aman anevan adon chim set'in akithou doh in achetai, Hichun Esau in mi upa ahina chu akijoh dohtai.
