1 Abraham vero aliam duxit uxorem nomine Cetthuram
And Abraham adds and takes a wife, and her name [is] Keturah;
2 quae peperit ei Zamram et Iexan et Madan et Madian et Iesboch et Sue
and she bears to 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 has begotten 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 [are] Ephah, and Epher, and Enoch, and Abidah, and Eldaah: all these [are] sons of Keturah.
5 deditque Abraham cuncta quae possederat Isaac
And Abraham gives all that he has to Isaac;
6 filiis autem concubinarum largitus est munera et separavit eos ab Isaac filio suo dum adhuc ipse viveret ad plagam orientalem
and to the sons of the concubines whom Abraham has, Abraham has given gifts, and sends them away from his son Isaac (in his being yet alive) eastward, to the east country.
7 fuerunt autem dies vitae eius centum septuaginta quinque anni
And these [are] the days of the years of the life of Abraham, which he lived, one hundred and seventy-five years;
8 et deficiens mortuus est in senectute bona provectaeque aetatis et plenus dierum congregatusque est ad populum suum
and Abraham expires, and dies in a good old age, aged and satisfied, and is 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 bury him at the cave of Machpelah, at the field of Ephron, son of Zoar the Hittite, which [is] before Mamre—
10 quem emerat a filiis Heth ibi sepultus est ipse et Sarra uxor eius
the field which Abraham bought from the sons of Heth—there Abraham has been buried, and his wife Sarah.
11 et post obitum illius benedixit Deus Isaac filio eius qui habitabat iuxta puteum nomine Viventis et videntis
And it comes to pass after the death of Abraham, that God blesses his son Isaac; and Isaac dwells by the Well of the Living One, my Beholder.
12 hae sunt generationes Ismahel filii Abraham quem peperit ei Agar Aegyptia famula Sarrae
And these [are] the generations of Ishmael, Abraham’s son, whom Hagar the Egyptian, Sarah’s handmaid, has borne 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 births: 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 sons of Ishmael, and these [are] their names, by their villages, and by their towers; twelve princes according to their peoples.
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, one hundred and thirty-seven years; and he expires, and dies, and is gathered to his people;
18 habitavit autem ab Evila usque Sur quae respicit Aegyptum introeuntibus Assyrios coram cunctis fratribus suis obiit
and they dwell from Havilah to Shur, which [is] before Egypt, in [your] going toward Asshur; in the presence of all his brothers has he fallen.
19 hae quoque sunt generationes Isaac filii Abraham Abraham genuit Isaac
And these [are] the generations of Isaac, Abraham’s son: Abraham has begotten Isaac;
20 qui cum quadraginta esset annorum duxit uxorem Rebeccam filiam Bathuel Syri de Mesopotamiam sororem Laban
and Isaac is a son of forty years in his taking Rebekah, daughter of Bethuel the Aramean, from Padan-Aram, sister of Laban the Aramean, to him for a wife.
21 deprecatusque est Dominum pro uxore sua eo quod esset sterilis qui exaudivit eum et dedit conceptum Rebeccae
And Isaac makes plea to YHWH before his wife, for she [is] barren: and YHWH accepts his plea, and his wife Rebekah conceives,
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 struggle together within her, and she says, “If [it is] right—why [am] I thus?” And she goes to seek YHWH.
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 YHWH says to her, “Two nations [are] in your womb, and two peoples from your bowels are parted; and the [one] people is stronger than the [other] people; and the older serves the younger.”
24 iam tempus pariendi venerat et ecce gemini in utero repperti sunt
And her days to bear are fulfilled, and behold, twins [are] 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 comes out all red as a hairy robe, and they call his name Esau;
26 sexagenarius erat Isaac quando nati sunt parvuli
and afterward his brother has come out, and his hand is taking hold on Esau’s heel, and one calls his name Jacob; and Isaac [is] a son of sixty years in her bearing them.
27 quibus adultis factus est Esau vir gnarus venandi et homo agricola Iacob autem vir simplex habitabat in tabernaculis
And the youths grew, and Esau is a man acquainted [with] hunting, a man of the field; and Jacob [is] a plain man, inhabiting tents;
28 Isaac amabat Esau eo quod de venationibus illius vesceretur et Rebecca diligebat Iacob
and Isaac loves Esau, for [his] game [is] in his mouth; and Rebekah is loving Jacob.
29 coxit autem Iacob pulmentum ad quem cum venisset Esau de agro lassus
And Jacob boils stew, and Esau comes in from the field, and he [is] weary;
30 ait da mihi de coctione hac rufa quia oppido lassus sum quam ob causam vocatum est nomen eius Edom
and Esau says to Jacob, “Please let me eat some of this red-red thing, for I [am] weary”; therefore [one] has called his name Edom;
31 cui dixit Iacob vende mihi primogenita tua
and Jacob says, “Sell your birthright to me today.”
32 ille respondit en morior quid mihi proderunt primogenita
And Esau says, “Behold, I am going to die, and what is this to me—a birthright?”
33 ait Iacob iura ergo mihi iuravit Esau et vendidit primogenita
And Jacob says, “Swear to me today”: and he swears to him, and sells his birthright to Jacob;
34 et sic accepto pane et lentis edulio comedit et bibit et abiit parvipendens quod primogenita vendidisset
and Jacob has given bread and stew of lentils to Esau, and he eats, and drinks, and rises, and goes; and Esau despises the birthright.
