Isaac and Ishmael, his sons, buried him in the cave of Machpelah, in the field of Ephron son of Zohar the Hittite, which is near Mamre.

After the death of Abraham, God blessed Isaac his son, and Isaac lived near Beer Lahai Roi.
12 hae sunt generationes Ismahel filii Abraham quem peperit ei Agar Aegyptia famula Sarrae
Now these were the descendants of Ishmael, Abraham's son, whom Hagar the Egyptian, Sarah's servant, bore to Abraham.
13 et haec nomina filiorum eius in vocabulis et generationibus suis primogenitus Ismahelis Nabaioth dein Cedar et Abdeel et Mabsam

These were the years of the life of Ishmael, 137 years. He breathed his last 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
They lived from Havilah to Ashhur, which is near Egypt, as one goes toward Assyria. They lived in hostility with each other.
19 hae quoque sunt generationes Isaac filii Abraham Abraham genuit Isaac
These were the events concerning Isaac, Abraham's son. Abraham became the father of Isaac.
20 qui cum quadraginta esset annorum duxit uxorem Rebeccam filiam Bathuel Syri de Mesopotamiam sororem Laban
Isaac was forty years old when he took as his wife Rebekah, the daughter of Bethuel the Aramean of Paddan Aram, the sister of Laban the Aramean.
21 deprecatusque est Dominum pro uxore sua eo quod esset sterilis qui exaudivit eum et dedit conceptum Rebeccae
Isaac prayed to Yahweh for his wife because she was childless, and Yahweh answered his prayer, 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
The children struggled together within her, and she said, “Why is this happening to me?” She went to ask Yahweh about this.
23 qui respondens ait duae gentes in utero tuo sunt et duo populi ex ventre tuo dividentur populusque populum superabit et maior minori serviet
Yahweh said to her, “Two nations are in your womb, and two peoples will be separated from within you. One people will be stronger than the other, and the older will serve the younger.”
24 iam tempus pariendi venerat et ecce gemini in utero repperti sunt
When it was time for her to give birth, 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
The first child came out red all over like a hairy garment. They called his name Esau.
26 sexagenarius erat Isaac quando nati sunt parvuli
After that, his brother came out. His hand was grasping Esau's heel. He was called Jacob. Isaac was sixty years old when his wife bore them.
27 quibus adultis factus est Esau vir gnarus venandi et homo agricola Iacob autem vir simplex habitabat in tabernaculis
The boys grew up, and Esau became a skillful hunter, a man of the field; but Jacob was a quiet man, who spent his time in the tents.
28 Isaac amabat Esau eo quod de venationibus illius vesceretur et Rebecca diligebat Iacob
Now Isaac loved Esau because he ate the animals that he had hunted, but Rebekah loved Jacob.
29 coxit autem Iacob pulmentum ad quem cum venisset Esau de agro lassus
Jacob cooked some stew. Esau came in from the field, and he was weak from hunger.
30 ait da mihi de coctione hac rufa quia oppido lassus sum quam ob causam vocatum est nomen eius Edom
Esau said to Jacob, “Feed me with that red stew. Please, I am exhausted!” That is why his name was called Edom.
31 cui dixit Iacob vende mihi primogenita tua
Jacob said, “First sell me your birthright.”
32 ille respondit en morior quid mihi proderunt primogenita
Esau said, “Look, I am about to die. What good is the birthright to me?”
33 ait Iacob iura ergo mihi iuravit Esau et vendidit primogenita
Jacob said, “First swear to me,” so Esau swore an oath and in that way he sold his birthright to Jacob.
34 et sic accepto pane et lentis edulio comedit et bibit et abiit parvipendens quod primogenita vendidisset
Jacob gave Esau bread and stew of lentils. He ate and drank, then got up and went on his way. In this manner Esau despised his birthright.
