Jenèz 25
1 Alò, Abraham te pran yon lòt madanm, ki te rele Ketura.
And Abraham married another wife, named Cetura:
2 Li te fè pou li Zimran, Jokschan, Madian, Jischbak, avèk Schuach.
Who bore him Zamran, and Jecsan, and Madan, and Madian, and Jesboc, and Sue.
3 Jokschan te vin papa a Séba avèk Dedan. Epi fis Dedan yo te Aschurim, Letuschim, avèk Leummim.
Jecsan also begot Saba and Dadan. The children of Dadan were Assurim, and Latusim, and Loomin.
4 Epi fis a Madian yo te Épha, Epher, Hénoc, Abida, avèk Eldaa. Tout sa yo se te fis a Ketura yo.
But of Madian was born Epha, and Opher, and Henoch, and Abida, and Eldaa: all these were the children of Cetura.
5 Alò Abraham te bay tout sa li te posede a Isaac;
And Abraham gave all his possessions to Isaac.
6 men a fis a fanm konkibin yo, li te bay yo kado pandan li te toujou ap viv la, e li te voye yo lwen fis li a vè lès, nan peyi lès la.
And to the children of the concubines he gave gifts, and separated them from Isaac his son, while he yet lived, to the east country.
7 Sa yo se tout ane lavi ke Abraham te viv, san-swasann-kenz ane.
And the days of Abraham’s life were a hundred and seventy-five years.
8 Abraham te respire dènye souf li. Li te mouri yon granmoun byen mi, e li te byen satisfè avèk lavi. Konsa, li te vin ranmase vè pèp li.
And decaying he died in a good old age, and having lived a long time, and being full of days: and was gathered to his people.
9 Fis li yo, Isaac avèk Ismaël te antere li nan kav Macpéla a, nan chan Ephron an, fis Tsochar, Etyen an, anfas Mamré,
And Isaac and Ismael his sons buried him in the double cave, which was situated in the field of Ephron the son of Seor the Hethite, over against Mambre;
10 chan ke Abraham te achte nan men fis a Heth yo. La, Abraham te antere avèk madanm li, Sarah.
Which he had bought of the children of Heth: there was he buried, and Sara his wife.
11 Li te vin rive apre mò Abraham nan, ke Bondye te beni fis li a, Isaac, epi Isaac te viv toupre Lachaï-roi.
And after his death, God blessed Isaac his son, who dwelt by the well named Of the living and seeing.
12 Alò, sa yo se achiv a desandan a jenerasyon Ismaël yo, fis Abraham nan, ke Agar, Ejipsyen an, sèvant a Sarah a, te fè ak Abraham;
These are the generations of Ismael the son of Abraham, whom Agar the Egyptian, Sara’s servant, bore unto him:
13 epi sa yo se non fis Ismaël yo, selon non yo, nan lòd nesans pa yo: Nebajoth, premye ne a Ismaël la, Kédar, Adbeel, Mibsam,
And these are the names of his children according to their calling and generations. The firstborn of Ismael was Nabajoth, then Cedar, and Adbeel, and Mabsam.
14 Mischma, Duma, Massa,
And Masma, and Duma, and Massa,
15 Hadad, Théma, Jethur, Naphisch avèk Kedma.
Hadar, and Thema, and Jethur, and Naphis, and Cedma.
16 Sila yo se fis Ismaël yo e sa se non yo, pa vil, e pa anplasman yo; douz prens yo selon tribi pa yo.
These are the sons of Ismael: and these are their names by their castles and towns, twelve princes of their tribes.
17 Sa yo se lane lavi Ismaël yo, san-trant-sèt ane. Li te respire dènye souf li, e li te mouri, epi yo te ranmase li vè pèp li.
And the years of Ismael’s life were a hundred and thirty-seven, and decaying he died, and was gathered unto his people.
18 Yo te deplase soti nan Havila jis rive nan Schur ki nan kote lès Égypte lè yon moun ap pwoche Assyrie; li te rete la malgre sa te fè ènmi avèk tout paran li yo.
And he dwelt from Hevila as far as Sur, which looketh towards Egypt, to them that go towards the Assyrians. He died in the presence of all his brethren.
19 Alò, sa yo se achiv jenerasyon ki swiv Isaac yo, fis Abraham nan: Abraham te vin papa Isaac.
These also are the generations of Isaac the son of Abraham: Abraham begot Isaac:
20 Lè Isaac te gen laj karant ane, li te pran Rebecca, fi Bethuel la, Araméen an nan kote Paddan-Aram, sè Laban an, Araméen an, pou vin madanm li.
Who when he was forty years old, took to wife Rebecca the daughter of Bathuel the Syrian of Mesopotamia, sister to Laban.
21 Isaac te priye a SENYÈ a anfavè madanm li, akoz li te esteril. Konsa, SENYÈ a te reponn li, e Rebecca, madanm li an te vin ansent.
And Isaac besought the Lord for his wife, because she was barren; and he heard him, and made Rebecca to conceive.
22 Men pitit yo te an konfli anndan vant li. Li te di: “Si se sa, poukisa mwen viv?” Li te ale mande a SENYÈ a.
But the children struggled in her womb: and she said: If it were to be so with me, what need was there to conceive? And she went to consult the Lord.
23 SENYÈ a te di li: “Gen de nasyon nan vant ou. De pèp va vin separe sòti nan vant ou. Yon pèp va pi pwisan ke lòt la. Pi gran an va sèvi pi jèn nan.”
And he answering said: Two nations are in thy womb, and two peoples shall be divided out of thy womb, and one people shall overcome the other, and the elder shall serve the younger.
24 Lè jou li yo pou akouche te rive, gade, te gen jimo nan vant li.
And when her time was come to be delivered, behold twins were found in her womb.
25 Premye a te vin parèt byen wouj. Li te kouvri toupatou tankou yon rad ki plen plim sou li. Yo te nonmen li Ésaü.
He that came forth first was red, and hairy like a skin: and his name was called Esau. Immediately the other coming forth, held his brother’s foot in his hand, and therefore he was called Jacob.
26 Apre, frè li a te vin parèt avèk men li ki t ap kenbe talon pye a Ésaü. Akoz sa yo te rele li Jacob. Isaac te gen swasant ane lè madanm li te bay nesans a yo.
Isaac was threescore years old when the children were born unto him.
27 Lè gason sa yo te grandi, Ésaü te vin fò nan lachas, yon nonm ki fèt pou chan a. Men Jacob te yon nonm byen trankil, ki te viv nan tant.
And when they were grown up, Esau became a skillful hunter, and a husbandman, but Jacob a plain man dwelt in tents.
28 Alò, Isaac te renmen Ésaü akoz ke li te gen yon gou pou vyann bèt sovaj, men Rebecca te renmen Jacob.
Isaac loved Esau, because he ate of his hunting: and Rebecca loved Jacob.
29 Lè Jacob te fin kwit yon soup, Ésaü te vin antre pandan li t ap kite chan an, e li te grangou anpil.
And Jacob boiled pottage: to whom Esau, coming faint out of the field,
30 Konsa, Ésaü te di Jacob: “Souple, ban m goute bagay wouj sa ki la a, paske mwen grangou anpil.” Se pou sa yo te rele non li Edom.
Said: Give me of this red pottage, for I am exceeding faint. For which reason his name was called Edom.
31 Men Jacob te di: “Premyeman vann mwen dwa nesans ou an.”
And Jacob said to him: Sell me thy first birthright.
32 Ésaü te di: “Gade byen, mwen prèt pou mouri, e konsa pou ki bagay yon eritaj ap sèvi mwen?”
He answered: Lo I die, what will the first birthright avail me?
33 Jacob te di: “Premyeman, sèmante ban mwen.” Li te sèmante ba li. Li te vann dwa nesans li an bay Jacob.
Jacob said: Swear therefore to me. Esau swore to him, and sold his first birthright.
34 Jacob te bay Ésaü pen avèk yon soup pwa. Li te manje e bwè, e li te leve al fè wout li. Konsa Ésaü te vin rayi dwa nesans li an.
And so taking bread and the pottage of lentils, he ate, and drank, and went his way; making little account of having sold his first birthright.
