< Jenèz 25 >

1 Alò, Abraham te pran yon lòt madanm, ki te rele Ketura.
Then again Abraham took a wife, and her name [was] Keturah.
2 Li te fè pou li Zimran, Jokschan, Madian, Jischbak, avèk Schuach.
And she bore 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 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 Abidah, and Eldaah. All these [were] the children 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 which Abraham had, Abraham gave gifts, and sent them away from Isaac his son (while he yet lived) 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 Abraham's life 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.
Then Abraham expired, and died in a good old age, an old man, and full [of years]; 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 his sons Isaac and Ishmael buried him in the cave of Machpelah, in the field of Ephron the son of Zohar 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 purchased of the sons of Heth: there was Abraham buried, and 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 his son Isaac: and Isaac dwelt by the well 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, Abraham's son, whom Hagar the Egyptian, Sarah's handmaid, bore 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 generations: The first-born 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] the sons of Ishmael, and these [are] their names, by their towns, and by their castles; twelve princes according to their nations.
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 and seven years: and he expired and died, and was 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 dwelt from Havilah to Shur, that [is] before Egypt, as thou goest towards Assyria: [and] 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.
And these [are] the generations of Isaac, Abraham's son: 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 Isaac was forty years old when he took Rebekah to wife, the daughter of Bethuel the Syrian of Padan-aram, the sister to Laban the Syrian.
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 entreated the LORD for his wife, because she [was] barren: and the LORD was entreated of 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 children struggled together within her: and she said, If [it is] so, why [am] I thus? And she went to inquire of 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 the LORD said to her, Two nations [are] in thy womb, and two manner of people shall be separated from thy bowels: and [the one] people shall be stronger than [the other] people; 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 days to be delivered were fulfilled, behold, [there were] 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 was born red, all over like a hairy garment: and 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 his brother was born, and his hand took hold on Esau's heel; and his name was called Jacob: and Isaac [was] sixty years old when she bore 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 boys grew: and Esau was a skillful hunter, a man of the field; and Jacob [was] a plain 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 he ate of [his] venison: but Rebekah 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: and Esau came from the field, and he [was] faint.
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 said to Jacob, Feed me, I pray thee, with that same red [pottage]; for I [am] faint: therefore was his name called Edom.
31 Men Jacob te di: “Premyeman vann mwen dwa nesans ou an.”
And Jacob said, Sell to me this day thy birth-right.
32 Ésaü te di: “Gade byen, mwen prèt pou mouri, e konsa pou ki bagay yon eritaj ap sèvi mwen?”
And Esau said, Behold, I [am] at the point to die: and what profit shall this birth-right bring to me?
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, Swear to me this day; and he swore to him: and he sold his birth-right 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.
Then Jacob gave Esau bread and pottage of lentiles; and he ate and drank, and rose and went his way: thus Esau despised [his] birth-right.
