Jenèz 25
1 Alò, Abraham te pran yon lòt madanm, ki te rele Ketura.
And Abraham adds and takes a wife, and her name [is] Keturah;
2 Li te fè pou li Zimran, Jokschan, Madian, Jischbak, avèk Schuach.
and she bears to him Zimran, and Jokshan, and Medan, and Midian, and Ishbak, and Shuah.
3 Jokschan te vin papa a Séba avèk Dedan. Epi fis Dedan yo te Aschurim, Letuschim, avèk Leummim.
And Jokshan has begotten Sheba and Dedan; and the sons of Dedan were Asshurim, and Letushim, and Leummim;
4 Epi fis a Madian yo te Épha, Epher, Hénoc, Abida, avèk Eldaa. Tout sa yo se te fis a Ketura yo.
and the sons of Midian [are] Ephah, and Epher, and Enoch, and Abidah, and Eldaah: all these [are] sons of Keturah.
5 Alò Abraham te bay tout sa li te posede a Isaac;
And Abraham gives all that he has 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 sons of the concubines whom Abraham has, Abraham has given gifts, and sends them away from his son Isaac (in his being yet alive) eastward, to the east country.
7 Sa yo se tout ane lavi ke Abraham te viv, san-swasann-kenz ane.
And these [are] the days of the years of the life of Abraham, which he lived, one 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 Abraham expires, and dies in a good old age, aged and satisfied, and is 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 his sons Isaac and Ishmael bury him at the cave of Machpelah, at the field of Ephron, son of Zoar the Hittite, which [is] before Mamre—
10 chan ke Abraham te achte nan men fis a Heth yo. La, Abraham te antere avèk madanm li, Sarah.
the field which Abraham bought from the sons of Heth—there Abraham has been buried, and his wife Sarah.
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 it comes to pass after the death of Abraham, that God blesses his son Isaac; and Isaac dwells by the Well of the Living One, my Beholder.
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;
And these [are] the generations of Ishmael, Abraham’s son, whom Hagar the Egyptian, Sarah’s handmaid, has borne to Abraham;
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 the sons of Ishmael, by their names, according to their births: firstborn of Ishmael, Nebajoth; and Kedar, and Adbeel, and Mibsam,
14 Mischma, Duma, Massa,
and Mishma, and Dumah, and Massa,
15 Hadad, Théma, Jethur, Naphisch avèk Kedma.
Hadar, and Tema, Jetur, Naphish, and Kedemah:
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 sons of Ishmael, and these [are] their names, by their villages, and by their towers; twelve princes according to their peoples.
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 these [are] the years of the life of Ishmael, one hundred and thirty-seven years; and he expires, and dies, and is gathered to 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 they dwell from Havilah to Shur, which [is] before Egypt, in [your] going toward Asshur; in the presence of all his brothers has he fallen.
19 Alò, sa yo se achiv jenerasyon ki swiv Isaac yo, fis Abraham nan: Abraham te vin papa Isaac.
And these [are] the generations of Isaac, Abraham’s son: Abraham has begotten 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.
and Isaac is a son of forty years in his taking Rebekah, daughter of Bethuel the Aramean, from Padan-Aram, sister of Laban the Aramean, to him for a wife.
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 makes plea to YHWH before his wife, for she [is] barren: and YHWH accepts his plea, and his wife Rebekah conceives,
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.
and the children struggle together within her, and she says, “If [it is] right—why [am] I thus?” And she goes to seek YHWH.
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 YHWH says to her, “Two nations [are] in your womb, and two peoples from your bowels are parted; and the [one] people is stronger than the [other] people; and the older serves the younger.”
24 Lè jou li yo pou akouche te rive, gade, te gen jimo nan vant li.
And her days to bear are fulfilled, and behold, twins [are] 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.
and the first comes out all red as a hairy robe, and they call his name Esau;
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.
and afterward his brother has come out, and his hand is taking hold on Esau’s heel, and one calls his name Jacob; and Isaac [is] a son of sixty years in her bearing them.
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 the youths grew, and Esau is a man acquainted [with] hunting, a man of the field; and Jacob [is] a plain man, inhabiting tents;
28 Alò, Isaac te renmen Ésaü akoz ke li te gen yon gou pou vyann bèt sovaj, men Rebecca te renmen Jacob.
and Isaac loves Esau, for [his] game [is] in his mouth; and Rebekah is loving 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 boils stew, and Esau comes in from the field, and he [is] weary;
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.
and Esau says to Jacob, “Please let me eat some of this red-red thing, for I [am] weary”; therefore [one] has called his name Edom;
31 Men Jacob te di: “Premyeman vann mwen dwa nesans ou an.”
and Jacob says, “Sell your birthright to me today.”
32 Ésaü te di: “Gade byen, mwen prèt pou mouri, e konsa pou ki bagay yon eritaj ap sèvi mwen?”
And Esau says, “Behold, I am going to die, and what is this to me—a birthright?”
33 Jacob te di: “Premyeman, sèmante ban mwen.” Li te sèmante ba li. Li te vann dwa nesans li an bay Jacob.
And Jacob says, “Swear to me today”: and he swears to him, and sells his birthright to Jacob;
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 Jacob has given bread and stew of lentils to Esau, and he eats, and drinks, and rises, and goes; and Esau despises the birthright.
