< Genesis 25 >

1 [Some time after Sarah died], Abraham married another woman, whose name was Keturah.
Y Abraham tomó otra mujer, cuyo nombre fue Cetura:
2 She later gave birth to six sons: Zimran, Jokshan, Medan, Midian, Ishbak, and Shuah.
La cual le parió a Zamram, y a Jecsán, y a Madán, y a Madián, y a Jesboc, y a Sue.
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.
Y Jecsán engendró a Saba, y a Dadán; e hijos de Dadán fueron Assurim, y Latussim, y Laomim.
4 The sons of Midian were Ephah, Epher, Hanoch, Abida, and Eldaah. They were all descendants of Keturah.
E hijos de Madián; Efa, y Efer, y Jenoc, y Abida, y Eldaa. Todos estos fueron hijos de Cetura.
5 Abraham declared that after he died, Isaac would inherit everything he owned.
Y 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.
Y a los hijos de sus concubinas dio Abraham dones: y envióles de junto a Isaac su hijo, mientras él vivió, al oriente, a la tierra oriental.
7 Abraham lived until he was 175 years old.
Estos empero fueron los días de la vida de Abraham que vivió ciento y setenta y cinco años.
8 He died at a very old age, joining his ancestors who had died previously [DOU].
Y espiró y murió Abraham en buena vejez, viejo, y harto de días, y fue agregado a sus pueblos.
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.
Y sepultáronle Isaac e Ismael sus hijos en la cueva doble, en la heredad de Efrón hijo de Seor Jetteo, que estaba en frente de Mamré:
10 Isaac and Ishmael buried his body there, where Abraham previously buried his wife Sarah.
La heredad que compró Abraham de los hijos de Jet; allí está sepultado y Sara su mujer.
11 After Abraham died, God blessed his son Isaac. And Isaac moved to live near Beer-Lahai-Roi.
Y fue, que después de muerto Abraham, bendijo Dios a Isaac su hijo: y habitó Isaac junto al pozo del Viviente que me ve.
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.
Y estas son las generaciones de Ismael hijo de Abraham, que parió Agar Egipcia, sierva de Sara, 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 pues son los nombres de los hijos de Ismael por sus nombres, por sus linajes. El primogénito de Ismael, Nabajot; y Cedar, y Adbeel, y Mabsam,
14 Mishma, Dumah, Massa,
Y Masma, y Duma, y Massa,
15 Hadar, Tema, Jetur, Naphish, and Kedemah.
Hadar, y Tema, y Jetur, y Nafis, y Cedma:
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 villas y por sus palacios; doce príncipes por sus familias.
17 Ishmael lived until he was 137 years old. Then he died, [EUP] joining his ancestors who had previously died.
Y estos fueron los años de la vida de Ismael, ciento y treinta y siete años: y espiró y murió Ismael, y fue agregado a sus pueblos.
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).
Y habitaron desde Hevila hasta el Sur, que está en frente de Egipto viniendo a Assur: delante de todos sus hermanos cayó.
19 (This is an account of/I will now tell you about) Abraham’s son, Isaac. Abraham became the father of Isaac,
Y estas fueron las generaciones de Isaac, hijo de Abraham: Abraham engendró a 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.
Y era Isaac de cuarenta años cuando tomó a Rebeca, hija de Batuel Arameo de Padan-aram, hermana de Labán Arameo, por su mujer.
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.
Y oró Isaac a Jehová por su mujer que era estéril; y aceptólo Jehová, y concibió Rebeca su mujer.
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.
Y los hijos se combatían dentro de ella, y dijo: Si así había de ser, ¿para qué vivo yo? Y fue a consultar a Jehová.
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]
Y respondióle Jehová: Dos naciones hay en tu vientre, y dos pueblos serán divididos de tus entrañas; mas el un pueblo será más fuerte que el otro pueblo, y el mayor servirá al menor.
24 When Rebekah gave birth, it was true! Twin boys were born!
Y como se cumplieron sus días para parir, he aquí mellizos 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'].
Y salió el primero bermejo, y todo él velludo como una ropa; y llamaron su nombre 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.
Y después salió su hermano, trabada su mano al calcañar de Esaú: y fue llamado su nombre Jacob. Y era Isaac de edad de sesenta años cuando Rebeca los parió.
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.
Y crecieron los niños; y Esaú fue varón sabio en la caza, hombre del campo: Jacob empero era varón sincero, que estaba en las 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.
Y amó Isaac a Esaú, porque comía de su caza. Mas Rebeca amaba a Jacob.
29 One day while Jacob was cooking some stew, Esau came home from the field, very hungry.
Y guisó Jacob un guisado: y volviendo Esaú del campo cansado,
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]’.]
Dijo Esaú a Jacob: Ruégote que me des a comer de eso bermejo, eso bermejo, que estoy cansado. Por tanto fue llamado su nombre, 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).”
Y Jacob respondió: Véndeme hoy en este día 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]
Entonces dijo Esaú: He aquí, yo me voy a morir, ¿para qué pues me servirá 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.
Y dijo Jacob: Júrame hoy en este día. Y él le juró, y 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.
Entonces Jacob dio a Esaú del pan, y del guisado de las lantejas; y él comió, y bebió, y levantóse, y fuése. Y así menospreció Esaú la primogenitura.
