< Genesis 25 >

1 Abraham took another wife, and her name was Keturah.
Te phoeiah Abraham loh yuu koep a loh tih anih ming tah Keturah ni.
2 She bore him Zimran, Jokshan, Medan, Midian, Ishbak, and Shuah.
Abraham ham Zimran neh Jokshan khaw, Medan khaw, Midian khaw, Ishbak khaw, Shuah khaw a sak pah.
3 Jokshan became the father of Sheba, and Dedan. The sons of Dedan were Asshurim, Letushim, and Leummim.
Jokshan loh Sheba neh Dedan te a sak tih Dedan ca rhoek la Asshurim, Lethushim neh Leummim om.
4 The sons of Midian were Efah, Epher, Hanoch, Abida, and Eldaah. All these were the children of Keturah.
Midian ca rhoek la Ephah khaw, Epher khaw, Hanok khaw, Abidah neh Eldaah khaw om tih amih boeih he Keturah ko rhoek ni.
5 Abraham gave all that he had to Isaac,
Abraham loh amah kah a cungkuem te Isaak taengah a paek.
6 but Abraham gave gifts to the sons of Abraham’s concubines. While he still lived, he sent them away from Isaac his son, eastward, to the east country.
Tedae Abraham yula rhoek kah a ca rhoek te Abraham loh amah a hing vaengah kutdoe a paek tih a capa Isaak taeng lamkah khothoeng ben khothoeng kho la vik a tueih.
7 These are the days of the years of Abraham’s life which he lived: one hundred seventy-five years.
Te dongah Abraham kah a hingnah kum tue he kum ya neh kum sawmrhih kum nga hing.
8 Abraham gave up his spirit, and died at a good old age, an old man, and full of years, and was gathered to his people.
Tedae Abraham he pal tih a duek vaengah khaw patong sampok then neh ngaikhuek la a pilnam taengah khoem uh.
9 Isaac and Ishmael, his sons, buried him in the cave of Machpelah, in the field of Ephron, the son of Zohar the Hittite, which is near Mamre,
Te vaengah anih te a ca rhoi Isaak neh Ishmael loh Mamre kaep Khitti hoel Zohar capa Ephron lo kah Makpelah lungko ah a up rhoi.
10 the field which Abraham purchased from the children of Heth. Abraham was buried there with Sarah, his wife.
Tekah lo te Abraham loh Kheth ca rhoek taeng lamkah a lai dongah, Abraham loh a yuu Sarah te pahoi khaw a up.
11 After the death of Abraham, God blessed Isaac, his son. Isaac lived by Beer Lahai Roi.
Tedae Abraham a dueknah hnutah aka om tah, a capa Isaak te Pathen loh yoethen a paek. Te dongah Isaak loh Beerlahairoi taengah kho a sak.
12 Now this is the history of the generations of Ishmael, Abraham’s son, whom Hagar the Egyptian, Sarah’s servant, bore to Abraham.
Te phoeiah hekah he Abraham capa Ishmael, Abraham taengah Sarah loh a paek a sal Egypt nu Hagar loh a cun kah rhuirhong ni.
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,
He tah amamih ming bangla Ishmael ca rhoek kah a ming ni. Amih kah rhuirhong dongah Ishmael kah caming tah Nebaioth tih Kedar neh Adbeel, Mibsam,
14 Mishma, Dumah, Massa,
Mishma, Dumah, Massa,
15 Hadad, Tema, Jetur, Naphish, and Kedemah.
Hadad, Tema, Jetur, Naphish, Kedemah om.
16 These are the sons of Ishmael, and these are their names, by their villages, and by their encampments: twelve princes, according to their nations.
Amih Ishmael ca rhoek he khaw amah ming, amah vongtung, amah lumim neh amah namtu kah khoboei he hlai nit omuh.
17 These are the years of the life of Ishmael: one hundred thirty-seven years. He gave up his spirit and died, and was gathered to his people.
Tedae Ishmael kah a hingnah kum he kum ya neh kum sawmthum kum rhih a lo vaengah pal tih a duek dongah a pilnam taengla khoem uh.
18 They lived from Havilah to Shur that is before Egypt, as you go toward Assyria. He lived opposite all his relatives.
Amih khaw Havilah lamkah Assyria la aka pawk Egypt khorhi Shur duela kho a sak uh tih a manuca rhoek boeih kah imdan ah pakuep uh.
19 This is the history of the generations of Isaac, Abraham’s son. Abraham became the father of Isaac.
Te phoeiah hekah he Abraham capa Isaak kah a rhuirhong ni. Abraham loh Isaak a sak tih,
20 Isaac was forty years old when he took Rebekah, the daughter of Bethuel the Syrian of Paddan Aram, the sister of Laban the Syrian, to be his wife.
Isaak kum sawmli a lo ca vaengah a yuu te Paddanaram kah Arammi Bethuel canu, Arammi Laban ngannu, Rebekah te a loh.
21 Isaac entreated the LORD for his wife, because she was barren. The LORD was entreated by him, and Rebekah his wife conceived.
Tedae anih te a yaa dongah Isaak loh BOEIPA taengah a yuu yueng la thangthui. Te dongah anih te BOEIPA loh a rhoi tih a yuu Rebekah pahoi pumrhih.
22 The children struggled together within her. She said, “If it is like this, why do I live?” She went to inquire of the LORD.
Tedae a ko khuikah camoe rhoi te phop uh rhoi. Te dongah, “Balae tih hetla ka om mai,” a ti. Te dongah BOEIPA te dawt ham cet.
23 The LORD 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.”
Te dongah BOEIPA loh anih taengah, “Nang bung khuiah namtu neh namtu om rhoi tih na ko lamkah namtu te panit la paek uh rhoi ni. Te vaengah namtu pakhat te namtu pakhat lakah te tlung vetih a ham loh a noe taengah thotat ni,” a ti nah.
24 When her days to be delivered were fulfilled, behold, there were twins in her womb.
Tedae a tue a tuemtuen vaengah a bung ah caphae la tarha a cun.
25 The first came out red all over, like a hairy garment. They named him Esau.
Te vaengah aka thoeng lamhma te a pum boeih lingphung tih a mul khaw himbai bangla a om dongah anih ming te Esau a sui.
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.
A hnukah a mana om tih a kut neh Esau kah khodil te a tuuk. Te dongah a ming te Jakob a sui. Amih rhoi a sak vaengah Isaak khaw kum sawmrhuk lo ca coeng.
27 The boys grew. Esau was a skillful hunter, a man of the field. Jacob was a quiet man, living in tents.
Tedae camoe rhoi te a pantai vaengah Esau te pongcet hlang, sakap thai la hlang coeng tih Jakob he dap ah duem aka om hlang la coeng.
28 Now Isaac loved Esau, because he ate his venison. Rebekah loved Jacob.
Te vaengah Esau kah sakah te a ka dongah a tui pah dongah Isaak loh a lungnah dae Rebekah long tah Jakob a lungnah.
29 Jacob boiled stew. Esau came in from the field, and he was famished.
Tedae Jakob loh andam a thong vaengah Esau buhmueh rhathih la pong lamkah ha pawk.
30 Esau said to Jacob, “Please feed me with some of that red stew, for I am famished.” Therefore his name was called Edom.
Te dongah Esau loh Jakob la, “Kai he bumueh rhathih la ka om dongah tekah a thim a thim te kai n'cah mai,” a ti nah. Te dongah anih ming te Edom a sui.
31 Jacob said, “First, sell me your birthright.”
Tedae Jakob loh, “Tihnin ah nang kah caminghamsum te kai taengah han yoi,” a ti nah.
32 Esau said, “Behold, I am about to die. What good is the birthright to me?”
Te dongah Esau loh, “Hekah caminghamsum khaw kai ham te balam nim. Kai duek ham ka cet coeng he,” a ti nah.
33 Jacob said, “Swear to me first.” He swore to him. He sold his birthright to Jacob.
Tedae Jakob loh, “Tihnin ah kai ham toemngam laeh,” a ti nah vaengah a toemngam tih a caminghamsum te Jakob taengla a yoih.
34 Jacob gave Esau bread and lentil stew. He ate and drank, rose up, and went his way. So Esau despised his birthright.
Te daengah Jakob loh buh neh rhacik andam te Esau a paek. Tedae a caak a ok phoeiah thoo tih vik cet. Te dongah Esau loh caminghamsum te a sawtsit coeng.
