Genesis 25

1 Abraham vero aliam duxit uxorem nomine Cetthuram

Then again Abraham took a wife, and her name was Keturah.

2 quae peperit ei Zamram et Iexan et Madan et Madian et Iesboch et Sue

And she bore him Zimran, and Jokshan, and Medan, and Midian, and Ishbak, and Shuah.

3 Iexan quoque genuit Saba et Dadan filii Dadan fuerunt Assurim et Lathusim et Loommim

And Jokshan 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 Enoch et Abida et Eldaa omnes hii filii Cetthurae

And the sons of Midian; Ephah, and Epher, and Hanoch, and Abidah, and Eldaah. All these were the children 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, which Abraham had, Abraham gave gifts, and sent them away from Isaac his son, while he yet lived, eastward, to the east country.

7 fuerunt autem dies vitae eius centum septuaginta quinque anni

And these are the days of the years of Abraham’s life which he lived, an hundred three score and fifteen years.

8 et deficiens mortuus est in senectute bona provectaeque aetatis et plenus dierum congregatusque est ad populum suum

Then Abraham gave up the ghost, and died in a good old age, an old man, and full of years; and was gathered to his people.

9 et sepelierunt eum Isaac et Ismahel filii sui in spelunca duplici quae sita est in agro Ephron filii Soor Hetthei e regione Mambre

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 quem emerat a filiis Heth ibi sepultus est ipse et Sarra uxor eius

The field which Abraham purchased of the sons of Heth: there was Abraham buried, and 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 his son Isaac; and Isaac dwelled by the well Lahairoi.

12 hae sunt generationes Ismahel filii Abraham quem peperit ei Agar Aegyptia famula Sarrae

Now these are the generations of Ishmael, Abraham’s son, whom Hagar the Egyptian, Sarah’s handmaid, bore to Abraham:

13 et haec nomina filiorum eius in vocabulis et generationibus suis primogenitus Ismahelis Nabaioth dein Cedar et Abdeel et Mabsam

And these are the names of the sons of Ishmael, by their names, according to their generations: the firstborn of Ishmael, Nebajoth; and Kedar, and Adbeel, and Mibsam,

14 Masma quoque et Duma et Massa

And Mishma, and Dumah, and Massa,

15 Adad et Thema Itur et Naphis et Cedma

Hadar, and Tema, Jetur, Naphish, and Kedemah:

16 isti sunt filii Ismahel et haec nomina per castella et oppida eorum duodecim principes tribuum suarum

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 anni vitae Ismahel centum triginta septem deficiens mortuus est et adpositus ad populum suum

And these are the years of the life of Ishmael, an hundred and thirty and seven years: and he gave up the ghost and died; and was gathered to his people.

18 habitavit autem ab Evila usque Sur quae respicit Aegyptum introeuntibus Assyrios coram cunctis fratribus suis obiit

And they dwelled from Havilah to Shur, that is before Egypt, as you go toward Assyria: and he died in the presence of all his brothers.

19 hae quoque sunt generationes Isaac filii Abraham Abraham genuit Isaac

And these are the generations of Isaac, Abraham’s son: Abraham begat Isaac:

20 qui cum quadraginta esset annorum duxit uxorem Rebeccam filiam Bathuel Syri de Mesopotamiam sororem Laban

And Isaac was forty years old when he took Rebekah to wife, the daughter of Bethuel the Syrian of Padanaram, the sister to Laban the Syrian.

21 deprecatusque est Dominum pro uxore sua eo quod esset sterilis qui exaudivit eum et dedit conceptum Rebeccae

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 sed conlidebantur in utero eius parvuli quae ait si sic mihi futurum erat quid necesse fuit concipere perrexitque ut consuleret Dominum

And the children struggled together within her; and she said, If it be so, why am I thus? And she went to inquire of the LORD.

23 qui respondens ait duae gentes in utero tuo sunt et duo populi ex ventre tuo dividentur populusque populum superabit et maior minori serviet

And the LORD said to her, Two nations are in your womb, and two manner of people shall be separated from your bowels; and the one people shall be stronger than the other people; and the elder shall serve the younger.

24 iam tempus pariendi venerat et ecce gemini in utero repperti sunt

And when her days to be delivered were fulfilled, behold, there were twins in her womb.

25 qui primus 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 out red, all over like an hairy garment; and they called his name Esau.

26 sexagenarius erat Isaac quando nati sunt parvuli

And after that came his brother out, and his hand took hold on Esau’s heel; and his name was called Jacob: and Isaac was three score years old when she bore them.

27 quibus adultis factus est Esau vir gnarus venandi et homo agricola Iacob autem vir simplex habitabat in tabernaculis

And the boys grew: and Esau was a cunning hunter, a man of the field; and Jacob was a plain man, dwelling in tents.

28 Isaac amabat Esau eo quod de venationibus illius vesceretur et Rebecca diligebat Iacob

And Isaac loved Esau, because he did eat of his venison: but Rebekah loved Jacob.

29 coxit autem Iacob pulmentum ad quem cum venisset Esau de agro lassus

And Jacob sod pottage: and Esau came from the field, and he was faint:

30 ait da mihi de coctione hac rufa quia oppido lassus sum quam ob causam vocatum est nomen eius Edom

And Esau said to Jacob, Feed me, I pray you, with that same red pottage; for I am faint: therefore was his name called Edom.

31 cui dixit Iacob vende mihi primogenita tua

And Jacob said, Sell me this day your birthright.

32 ille respondit en morior quid mihi proderunt primogenita

And Esau said, Behold, I am at the point to die: and what profit shall this birthright do to me?

33 ait Iacob iura ergo mihi iuravit Esau et vendidit primogenita

And Jacob said, Swear to me this day; and he swore to him: and he sold his birthright to Jacob.

34 et sic accepto pane et lentis edulio comedit et bibit et abiit parvipendens quod primogenita vendidisset

Then Jacob gave Esau bread and pottage of lentils; and he did eat and drink, and rose up, and went his way: thus Esau despised his birthright.
