Genesis 25
1 [Some time after Sarah died], Abraham married another woman, whose name was Keturah.
Abraham tomó otra esposa, que se llamaba Cetura.
2 She later gave birth to six sons: Zimran, Jokshan, Medan, Midian, Ishbak, and Shuah.
Ella le dio a luz a Zimran, Jocsan, Medan, Midian, Isbac y Shuah.
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.
Jocsan fue el padre de Sheba y de Dedan. Los hijos de Dedán fueron Asurim, Letusim y Leumim.
4 The sons of Midian were Ephah, Epher, Hanoch, Abida, and Eldaah. They were all descendants of Keturah.
Los hijos de Madián fueron Efá, Efer, Hanoc, Abida y Eldá. Todos ellos eran hijos de Cetura.
5 Abraham declared that after he died, Isaac would inherit everything he owned.
Abraham dio todo lo que tenía a Isaac,
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.
pero Abraham dio regalos a los hijos de las concubinas de Abraham. Mientras él vivía, los envió lejos de su hijo Isaac, hacia el este, al país oriental.
7 Abraham lived until he was 175 years old.
Estos son los días de los años que vivió Abraham: ciento setenta y cinco años.
8 He died at a very old age, joining his ancestors who had died previously [DOU].
Abraham renunció a su espíritu y murió en buena edad, anciano y lleno de años, y fue reunido con su pueblo.
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.
Isaac e Ismael, sus hijos, lo enterraron en la cueva de Macpela, en el campo de Efrón, hijo de Zohar el hitita, que está cerca de Mamre,
10 Isaac and Ishmael buried his body there, where Abraham previously buried his wife Sarah.
el campo que Abraham compró a los hijos de Het. Abraham fue enterrado allí con Sara, su esposa.
11 After Abraham died, God blessed his son Isaac. And Isaac moved to live near Beer-Lahai-Roi.
Después de la muerte de Abraham, Dios bendijo a Isaac, su hijo. Isaac vivía en Beer Lahai Roi.
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.
Esta es la historia de las generaciones de Ismael, hijo de Abraham, que Agar la egipcia, sierva de Sara, dio a luz a Abraham.
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,
Estos son los nombres de los hijos de Ismael, por sus nombres, según el orden de su nacimiento: el primogénito de Ismael, Nebaiot, luego Cedar, Adbeel, Mibsam,
14 Mishma, Dumah, Massa,
Misma, Duma, Massa,
15 Hadar, Tema, Jetur, Naphish, and Kedemah.
Hadad, Tema, Jetur, Nafis y Cedema.
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.
Estos son los hijos de Ismael, y estos son sus nombres, por sus pueblos y por sus campamentos: doce príncipes, según sus naciones.
17 Ishmael lived until he was 137 years old. Then he died, [EUP] joining his ancestors who had previously died.
Estos son los años de la vida de Ismael: ciento treinta y siete años. Entregó su espíritu y murió, y fue reunido con su pueblo.
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).
Vivió desde Havila hasta Shur, que está delante de Egipto, en dirección a Asiria. Vivió frente a todos sus parientes.
19 (This is an account of/I will now tell you about) Abraham’s son, Isaac. Abraham became the father of Isaac,
Esta es la historia de las generaciones de Isaac, hijo de Abraham. Abraham fue el padre de Isaac.
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.
Isaac tenía cuarenta años cuando tomó por esposa a Rebeca, hija de Betuel el sirio de Paddán Aram, hermana de Labán el sirio.
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 suplicó a Yahvé por su esposa, porque era estéril. Yahvé fue suplicado por él, y Rebeca, su esposa, concibió.
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.
Los hijos lucharon juntos dentro de ella. Ella dijo: “Si es así, ¿para qué vivo?”. Fue a consultar a Yahvé.
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]
Yahvé le dijo, “Dos naciones están en tu vientre. Dos personas serán separadas de su cuerpo. Un pueblo será más fuerte que el otro. El mayor servirá al menor”.
24 When Rebekah gave birth, it was true! Twin boys were born!
Cuando se cumplieron sus días de parto, he aquí que había gemelos en su vientre.
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'].
El primero salió rojo por todas partes, como una prenda velluda. Le pusieron el nombre de Esaú.
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.
Después salió su hermano, y su mano se aferró al talón de Esaú. Le pusieron el nombre de Jacob. Isaac tenía sesenta años cuando los dio a luz.
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.
Los muchachos crecieron. Esaú era un hábil cazador, un hombre de campo. Jacob era un hombre tranquilo, que vivía en tiendas.
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 amaba a Esaú, porque comía su carne de venado. Rebeca amaba a Jacob.
29 One day while Jacob was cooking some stew, Esau came home from the field, very hungry.
Jacob hervía un guiso. Esaú llegó del campo, y estaba hambriento.
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]’.]
Esaú le dijo a Jacob: “Por favor, aliméntame con un poco de ese guiso rojo, porque estoy hambriento”. Por eso se llamó Edom.
31 Jacob said, “I will give you some if you sell me (your birthright/the privileges you have because you are the firstborn son).”
Jacob dijo: “Primero, véndeme tu primogenitura”.
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]
Esaú dijo: “He aquí que estoy a punto de morir. ¿De qué me sirve la primogenitura?”
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 dijo: “Júrame primero”. Se lo juró. Vendió su primogenitura a Jacob.
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.
Jacob dio a Esaú pan y guiso de lentejas. Comió y bebió, se levantó y siguió su camino. Entonces Esaú despreció su primogenitura.
