Genesis 25
1 Abraham vero aliam duxit uxorem nomine Ceturam:
And Abraham took another wife and her name, was Keturah;
2 quae peperit ei Zamran et Iecsan, et Madan, et Madian, et Iesboc, et Sue.
and she bare to him Zimran, and Yokshan, and Medan, and Midian, —and Ishbak, and Shuah.
3 Iecsan quoque genuit Saba, et Dadan. Filii Dadan fuerunt Assurim, et Latusim, et Loomin.
And, Yokshan, begat Sheba and Dedan, —and, the sons of Dedan, were Asshurim and Letushim, and Leummim.
4 At vero ex Madian ortus est Epha, et Opher, et Henoch, et Abida, et Eldaa: omnes hi filii Ceturae.
And the sons of Midian, Ephah and Epher and Hanoch, and Abida. and Eldaah, —all these, were the sons of Keturah.
5 Deditque Abraham cuncta quae possederat, Isaac:
And Abraham gave all that he had to Isaac;
6 filiis autem concubinarum largitus est munera, et separavit eos ab Isaac filio suo, dum adhuc ipse viveret, ad plagam orientalem.
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 Fuerunt autem dies vitae Abrahae, centum septuaginta quinque anni.
Now, these, are the days of the years of the life of Abraham which he lived—a hundred and seventy-five years.
8 Et deficiens mortuus est in senectute bona, provectaeque aetatis, et plenus dierum: congregatusque est ad populum suum.
So Abraham breathed his last, and died in a fine old age, old and satisfied, —and was gathered unto his people,
9 Et sepelierunt eum Isaac et Ismael filii sui in spelunca duplici, quae sita est in agro Ephron filii Seor Hethaei, e regione Mambre,
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 quam emerat a filiis Heth: ibi sepultus est ipse, et Sara uxor eius.
the field which Abraham purchased of the sons of Heth, —there, was buried Abraham, with Sarah his wife.
11 Et post obitum illius benedixit Deus Isaac filio eius, qui habitabat iuxta puteum nomine Viventis et videntis.
And it came to pass after the death of Abraham, that God blessed Isaac his son, —and Isaac dwelt by Beer-lahai-roi.
12 Hae sunt generationes Ismael filii Abrahae, quem peperit ei Agar Aegyptia, famula Sarae: et
Now, these, are the generations of Ishmael son of Abraham, —whom hagar the Egyptian woman the handmaid of Sarah bare to Abraham;
13 haec nomina filiorum eius in vocabulis et generationibus suis. Primogenitus Ismaelis Nabaioth, deinde Cedar, et Adbeel, et Mabsam,
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 Masma quoque, et Duma, et Massa,
and Mishma and Dumah, and Massa;
15 Hadar, et Thema, et Itur, et Naphis, et Cedma.
Hadad, and Tema, Jetur, Naphish, and Kedemah:
16 Isti sunt filii Ismaelis: et haec nomina per castella et oppida eorum, duodecim principes tribuum suarum.
these, same, are the sons of Ishmael and these, their names, by their villages and by their encampments, —twelve princes, after their tribes.
17 Et facti sunt anni vitae Ismaelis centum triginta septem, deficiensque mortuus est, et appositus ad populum suum.
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 Habitavit autem ab Hevila usque Sur, quae respicit Aegyptum introeuntibus Assyrios. coram cunctis fratribus suis obiit.
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 Hae quoque sunt generationes Isaac filii Abraham: Abraham genuit Isaac:
And, these, are the generations of Isaac, son of Abraham, —Abraham, begat Isaac;
20 qui cum quadraginta esset annorum, duxit uxorem Rebeccam filiam Bathuelis Syri de Mesopotamia, sororem Laban.
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 Deprecatusque est Isaac Dominum pro uxore sua, eo quod esset sterilis: qui exaudivit eum, et dedit conceptum Rebeccae.
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 Sed collidebantur in utero eius parvuli; quae ait: Si sic mihi futurum erat, quid necesse fuit concipere? Perrexitque ut consuleret Dominum.
And the sons within her struggled together, so she said—If so, wherefore now am, I, [thus]? And she went to seek Yahweh.
23 Qui respondens, ait: Duae gentes sunt in utero tuo, et duo populi ex ventre tuo dividentur, populusque populum superabit, et maior serviet minori.
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 Iam tempus pariendi advenerat, et ecce gemini in utero eius reperti sunt.
Then were fulfilled her days to bring forth, —and lo! twins in her womb.
25 Qui prior egressus est, rufus erat, et totus in morem pellis hispidus: vocatumque est nomen eius Esau. Protinus alter egrediens, plantam fratris tenebat manu: et idcirco appellavit eum Iacob.
And the first came forth red, all over, as a mantle of hair, —so they called his name, Esau,
26 Sexagenarius erat Isaac quando nati sunt ei parvuli.
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 Quibus adultis, factus est Esau vir gnarus venandi, et homo agricola: Iacob autem vir simplex habitabat in tabernaculis.
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 Isaac amabat Esau, eo quod de venationibus illius vesceretur: et Rebecca diligebat Iacob.
And, Isaac, loved, Esau, because of the game he put in his mouth, —but, Rebekah, was a lover of Jacob!
29 Coxit autem Iacob pulmentum: ad quem cum venisset Esau de agro lassus,
And Jacob had boiled pottage, —when Esau came in from the field, he, being famished.
30 ait: Da mihi de coctione hac rufa, quia oppido lassus sum. Quam ob causam vocatum est nomen eius 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 Cui dixit Iacob: Vende mihi primogenita tua.
And Jacob said, —Come sell, just now, thy birthright unto me.
32 Ille respondit: En morior, quid mihi proderunt primogenita?
And Esau said, Here am I, on the point of dying, —wherefore, then, should I, have, a birthright?
33 Ait Iacob: Iura ergo mihi. Iuravit ei Esau, et vendidit primogenita.
And Jacob said, Come swear to me just now! And he sware to him, —and sold his birthright to Jacob.
34 Et sic accepto pane et lentis edulio, comedit, et bibit, et abiit; parvipendens quod primogenita vendidisset.
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!
