Jenèz 25
1 Alò, Abraham te pran yon lòt madanm, ki te rele Ketura.
And Abraham took another wife and her name, was Keturah;
2 Li te fè pou li Zimran, Jokschan, Madian, Jischbak, avèk Schuach.
and she bare to him Zimran, and Yokshan, 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, Yokshan, begat 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, Ephah and Epher and Hanoch, and Abida. and Eldaah, —all these, were the sons of Keturah.
5 Alò Abraham te bay tout sa li te posede a Isaac;
And Abraham gave all that he had 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.
but, to the sons of the concubines whom Abraham had, Abraham gave gifts, —and then sent them away from Isaac his son while he himself yet lived, eastward unto the land of the east.
7 Sa yo se tout ane lavi ke Abraham te viv, san-swasann-kenz ane.
Now, these, are the days of the years of the life of Abraham which he lived—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.
So Abraham breathed his last, and died in a fine old age, old and satisfied, —and was gathered unto 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 Ishmael his sons buried him, in the cave of Machpelah, —in the field of Ephron son of Zohar the Hittite, which is over against 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 purchased of the sons of Heth, —there, was buried Abraham, with Sarah 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 it came to pass after the death of Abraham, that God blessed Isaac his son, —and Isaac dwelt by Beer-lahai-roi.
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;
Now, these, are the generations of Ishmael son of Abraham, —whom hagar the Egyptian woman the handmaid of Sarah bare 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 after their generations, —the firstborn of Ishmael, Nebaioth, and Kedar and Adbeel and Mibsam;
14 Mischma, Duma, Massa,
and Mishma and Dumah, and Massa;
15 Hadad, Théma, Jethur, Naphisch avèk Kedma.
Hadad, 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, same, are the sons of Ishmael and these, their names, by their villages and by their encampments, —twelve princes, after 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 these, are the years of the life of Ishmael, a hundred and thirty-seven years, —and he breathed his last and 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 they stretched their habitations from Havilah as far as to Shur, which is over against Egypt, as thou goest in towards Assyria, —over against all his brethren, he settled down.
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, son of Abraham, —Abraham, begat 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 it came to pass that, Isaac, was forty years old, when he took Rebekah daughter of Bethuel the Syrian, of the Plain of Syria, —sister of Laban the Syrian. to himself to 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.
So then Isaac made entreaty unto Yahweh in behalf of his wife, for she was, barren, —and Yahweh suffered himself to be entreated by him, and Rebekah his wife conceived.
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 sons within her struggled together, so she said—If so, wherefore now am, I, [thus]? And she went to seek Yahweh.
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 Yahweh said to her. Two nations, are in thy womb, And two races, from thy body, shall be parted, —And, one race, shall be stronger, than the other race, And the elder, shall serve the younger.
24 Lè jou li yo pou akouche te rive, gade, te gen jimo nan vant li.
Then were fulfilled her days to bring forth, —and lo! twins 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 came forth red, all over, as a mantle of hair, —so they called 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, after that, came forth his brother with his hand fast hold of the heel of Esau, so they called his name Jacob—Now, Isaac, was sixty years old when she bare 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 when the youths grew up, it came to pass that Esau was a man skilled in game a man of the field, —but, Jacob, was a ready man, dwelling in 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, loved, Esau, because of the game he put in his mouth, —but, Rebekah, was a lover of 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 had boiled pottage, —when Esau came in from the field, he, being famished.
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.
So Esau said unto Jacob. Do let me devour some of the red—this red, for, famished, I am. For this cause, was his name called Edom.
31 Men Jacob te di: “Premyeman vann mwen dwa nesans ou an.”
And Jacob said, —Come sell, just now, thy birthright unto me.
32 Ésaü te di: “Gade byen, mwen prèt pou mouri, e konsa pou ki bagay yon eritaj ap sèvi mwen?”
And Esau said, Here am I, on the point of dying, —wherefore, then, should I, have, 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 said, Come swear to me just now! And he sware to him, —and sold 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, having given to Esau bread and a dish of lentils, he did eat and drink and rose up, and went his way, —thus Esau despised his birthright!
