1 アブラハム再妻を娶る其名をケトラといふ
And Abraham took another wife and her name, was Keturah;
2 彼ジムラン、ヨクシヤン、メダン、ミデアン、イシバク、シユワを生り
and she bare to him Zimran, and Yokshan, and Medan, and Midian, —and Ishbak, and Shuah.
3 ヨクシヤン、シバとデダンを生むデダンの子はアッシユリ族レトシ族リウミ族なり
And, Yokshan, begat Sheba and Dedan, —and, the sons of Dedan, were Asshurim and Letushim, and Leummim.
4 ミデアンの子はエパ、エペル、ヘノク、アビダ、エルダアなり是等は皆ケトラの子孫なり
And the sons of Midian, Ephah and Epher and Hanoch, and Abida. and Eldaah, —all these, were the sons of Keturah.
5 アブラハム其所有を盡くイサクに與へたり
And Abraham gave all that he had to Isaac;
6 アブラハムの妾等の子にはアブラハム其生る間の物をあたへて之をして其子イサクを離れて東にさりて東の國に至らしむ
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 アブラハムの生存へたる齡の日は即ち百七十五年なりき
Now, these, are the days of the years of the life of Abraham which he lived—a hundred and seventy-five years.
8 アブラハム遐齡に及び老人となり年滿て氣たえ死て其民に加る
So Abraham breathed his last, and died in a fine old age, old and satisfied, —and was gathered unto his people,
9 其子イサクとイシマエル之をヘテ人ゾハルの子エフロンの野なるマクペラの洞穴に葬れり是はマムレの前にあり
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 即ちアブラハムがヘテの子孫より買たる野なり彼處にアブラハムと其妻サラ葬らる
the field which Abraham purchased of the sons of Heth, —there, was buried Abraham, with Sarah his wife.
11 アブラハムの死たる後神其子イサクを祝みたまふイサクはベエルラハイロイの邊に住り
And it came to pass after the death of Abraham, that God blessed Isaac his son, —and Isaac dwelt by Beer-lahai-roi.
12 サラの侍婢なるエジプト人ハガルがアブラハムに生たる子イシマエルの傳は左のごとし
Now, these, are the generations of Ishmael son of Abraham, —whom hagar the Egyptian woman the handmaid of Sarah bare to Abraham;
13 イシマエルの子の名は其名氏と其世代に循ひて言ば是のごとしイシマエルの長子はネバヨテなり其次はケダル、アデビエル、ミブサム
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 ミシマ、ドマ、マツサ
and Mishma and Dumah, and Massa;
15 ハダデ、テマ、ヱトル、ネフシ、ケデマ
Hadad, and Tema, Jetur, Naphish, and Kedemah:
16 是等はイシマエルの子なり是等は其郷黨を其營にしたがひて言る者にして其國に循ひていへば十二の牧伯なり
these, same, are the sons of Ishmael and these, their names, by their villages and by their encampments, —twelve princes, after their tribes.
17 イシマエルの齡は百三十七歳なりき彼いきたえ死て其民にくははる
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 イシマエルの子等はハビラよりエジプトの前なるシユルまでの間に居住てアッスリヤまでにおよべりイシマエルは其すべての兄弟等のまへにすめり
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 アブラハムの子イサクの傳は左のごとしアブラハム、イサクを生り
And, these, are the generations of Isaac, son of Abraham, —Abraham, begat Isaac;
20 イサク四十歳にしてリベカを妻に娶れりリベカはパダンアラムのスリア人ベトエルの女にしてスリア人ラバンの妹なり
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 イサク其妻の子なきに因て之がためにヱホバに祈願をたてければヱホバ其ねがひを聽たまへり遂に其妻リベカ孕みしが
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 其子胎の内に爭そひければ然らば我いかで斯てあるべきと言て往てヱホバに問に
And the sons within her struggled together, so she said—If so, wherefore now am, I, [thus]? And she went to seek Yahweh.
23 ヱホバ彼に言たまひけるは二の國民汝の胎にあり二の民汝の腹より出て別れん一の民は一の民よりも強かるべし大は小に事へんと
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 かくて臨月みちて見しに胎には孿ありき
Then were fulfilled her days to bring forth, —and lo! twins in her womb.
25 先に出たる者は赤くして躰中裘の如し其名をエサウと名けたり
And the first came forth red, all over, as a mantle of hair, —so they called his name, Esau,
26 其後に弟出たるが其手にエサウの踵を持り其名をヤコブとなづけたりリベカが彼等を生し時イサクは六十歳なりき
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 茲に童子人となりしがエサウは巧なる獵人にして野の人となりヤコブは質樸なる人にして天幕に居ものとなれり
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 イサクは麆を嗜によりてエサウを愛したりしがリベカはヤコブを愛したり
And, Isaac, loved, Esau, because of the game he put in his mouth, —but, Rebekah, was a lover of Jacob!
29 茲にヤコブ羹を煮たり時にエサウ野より來りて憊れ居り
And Jacob had boiled pottage, —when Esau came in from the field, he, being famished.
30 エサウ、ヤコブにむかひ我憊れたれば請ふ其紅羹其處にある紅羹を我にのませよといふ是をもて彼の名はエドム(紅)と稱らる
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 ヤコブ言けるは今日汝の家督の權を我に鬻れ
And Jacob said, —Come sell, just now, thy birthright unto me.
32 エサウいふ我は死んとして居る此家督の權我に何の益をなさんや
And Esau said, Here am I, on the point of dying, —wherefore, then, should I, have, a birthright?
33 ヤコブまた言けるは今日我に誓へと彼すなはち誓て其家督の權をヤコブに鬻ぬ
And Jacob said, Come swear to me just now! And he sware to him, —and sold his birthright to Jacob.
34 是に於てヤコブ、パンと扁豆の羹とをエサウに與へければ食且飮て起て去り斯エサウ家督の權を藐視じたり
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!
