Ebandeli 25
1 Abrayami abalaki mwasi mosusu, kombo na ye « Ketura. »
And Abraham took another wife and her name, was Keturah;
2 Ketura abotelaki ye: Zimirani, Yokishani, Medani, Madiani, Ishibaki mpe Shuwa.
and she bare to him Zimran, and Yokshan, and Medan, and Midian, —and Ishbak, and Shuah.
3 Yokishani azalaki tata ya Saba mpe Dedani. Tala bato oyo bazalaki bakitani ya Dedani: Bato ya Ashuri, ya Letushi mpe ya Lewumi.
And, Yokshan, begat Sheba and Dedan, —and, the sons of Dedan, were Asshurim and Letushim, and Leummim.
4 Madiani azalaki tata ya Efa, ya Eferi, ya Enoki, ya Abida mpe ya Elida. Bato oyo nyonso bazalaki bakitani ya Ketura.
And the sons of Midian, Ephah and Epher and Hanoch, and Abida. and Eldaah, —all these, were the sons of Keturah.
5 Abrayami atikaki biloko na ye nyonso na maboko ya Izaki.
And Abraham gave all that he had to Isaac;
6 Kasi wana Abrayami azalaki nanu na bomoi, apesaki bakado epai ya bana mibali ya bamakangu na ye mpe atindaki bango na mokili ya este, mosika ya mwana na ye ya mobali Izaki.
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 Abrayami awumelaki na bomoi mibu nkama moko na tuku sambo na mitano.
Now, these, are the days of the years of the life of Abraham which he lived—a hundred and seventy-five years.
8 Bongo Abrayami akataki motema mpe akufaki. Sima na ye kotonda mikolo mpe kokoma mobange makasi, akendeki kokutana na bakoko na ye.
So Abraham breathed his last, and died in a fine old age, old and satisfied, —and was gathered unto his people,
9 Bana na ye ya mibali, Izaki mpe Isimaeli, bakundaki ye na lilita ya mabanga ya Makipela pene ya Mamire, kati na elanga ya Efroni, mwana mobali ya Tsoari, moto ya Iti.
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 Abrayami asombaki elanga yango epai ya bato ya Iti. Ezalaki kuna nde bakundaki mwasi na ye Sara.
the field which Abraham purchased of the sons of Heth, —there, was buried Abraham, with Sarah his wife.
11 Sima na kufa ya Abrayami, Nzambe apambolaki Izaki, mwana mobali ya Abrayami. Izaki azalaki kovanda pene ya Lakai-Royi.
And it came to pass after the death of Abraham, that God blessed Isaac his son, —and Isaac dwelt by Beer-lahai-roi.
12 Tala molongo ya bakitani ya Isimaeli, mwana mobali ya Abrayami, oyo Agari, moto ya Ejipito mpe mwasi mosali ya Sara, abotelaki Abrayami.
Now, these, are the generations of Ishmael son of Abraham, —whom hagar the Egyptian woman the handmaid of Sarah bare to Abraham;
13 Tala bakombo ya bana mibali ya Isimaeli kolanda ndenge babotamela: Nebayoti, mwana mobali ya liboso ya Isimaeli; Kedari, Adibeli, Mibisami,
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 Mishima, Duma, Masa,
and Mishma and Dumah, and Massa;
15 Adadi, Tema, Yeturi, Nafishi mpe Kedima.
Hadad, and Tema, Jetur, Naphish, and Kedemah:
16 Bango nde bazalaki bana mibali zomi na mibale ya Isimaeli. Moko na moko azalaki mokambi ya libota, mpe apesaki kombo na ye na mboka na ye mpe na molako na ye.
these, same, are the sons of Ishmael and these, their names, by their villages and by their encampments, —twelve princes, after their tribes.
17 Isimaeli awumelaki na bomoi mibu nkama moko na tuku misato na sambo. Akataki motema mpe akufaki; akendeki kokutana na bakoko na ye.
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 Bakitani na ye bazalaki kovanda na mokili oyo ezalaki kati na Avila mpe Shuri, pene ya Ejipito, na nzela oyo ekenda na Asiri. Bazalaki tango nyonso kovanda lokola banguna ya bandeko na bango nyonso.
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 Tala libota ya Izaki, mwana mobali ya Abrayami. Abrayami azalaki tata ya Izaki,
And, these, are the generations of Isaac, son of Abraham, —Abraham, begat Isaac;
20 mpe Izaki azalaki na mibu tuku minei ya mbotama tango abalaki Rebeka, mwana mwasi ya Betweli, moto ya Arami ya Padani-Arami, mpe ndeko mwasi ya Labani, moto ya Arami.
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 Izaki abondelaki Yawe mpo na Rebeka, mwasi na ye, oyo azalaki ekomba. Yawe ayanolaki libondeli na ye, mpe Rebeka akomaki na zemi.
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 Kati na libumu na ye, bana bazalaki kowelana. Alobaki: « Likambo nini oyo ekomeli ngai? » Boye, akendeki kotuna Yawe.
And the sons within her struggled together, so she said—If so, wherefore now am, I, [thus]? And she went to seek Yahweh.
23 Yawe alobaki na ye: « Bikolo mibale ezali kati na libumu na yo, mpe mabota mibale ekabwana ekobima na libumu na yo; ekolo moko ekoleka ekolo mosusu na makasi, mpe kulutu akosalela leki. »
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 Wana tango na ye ya kobota ekokaki, azalaki na mapasa mibale kati na libumu na ye.
Then were fulfilled her days to bring forth, —and lo! twins in her womb.
25 Lipasa ya liboso oyo abimaki azalaki motane mpe nzoto na ye mobimba ezalaki etonda na bapwale lokola elamba ya bapwale; yango wana babengaki ye « Ezawu. »
And the first came forth red, all over, as a mantle of hair, —so they called his name, Esau,
26 Sima na yango, ndeko na ye mpe abimaki, loboko na ye ekanga litindi ya Ezawu; yango wana bapesaki ye kombo « Jakobi. » Izaki azalaki na mibu tuku motoba ya mbotama tango Rebeka abotaki.
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 Bana mibali yango bakolaki. Ezawu akomaki mobomi makasi ya banyama mpe azalaki kolekisa tango mingi na zamba; Jakobi azalaki moto ya kimia, azalaki kosepela kovanda na ndako.
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 Izaki abandaki kosepela mingi na misuni, yango wana alingaki mingi Ezawu; mpe Rebeka alingaki mingi Jakobi.
And, Isaac, loved, Esau, because of the game he put in his mouth, —but, Rebekah, was a lover of Jacob!
29 Mokolo moko, wana Jakobi azalaki kolamba elubu, Ezawu oyo awutaki na bilanga ayaki na kolemba.
And Jacob had boiled pottage, —when Esau came in from the field, he, being famished.
30 Ezawu alobaki na Jakobi: — Nalembi makasi; tika ngai nalia elubu oyo, elubu oyo kaka. Yango wana bazalaki mpe kobenga ye Edomi.
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 Jakobi azongisaki: — Tekela ngai liboso boyaya na yo.
And Jacob said, —Come sell, just now, thy birthright unto me.
32 Ezawu azongisaki: — Tala, nakokufa na nzala. Boyaya na ngai ekopesa ngai nini?
And Esau said, Here am I, on the point of dying, —wherefore, then, should I, have, a birthright?
33 Kasi Jakobi alobaki: — Lapa liboso ndayi. Ezawu alapaki ndayi epai ya Jakobi; mpe na nzela wana, atekaki boyaya na ye epai ya Jakobi.
And Jacob said, Come swear to me just now! And he sware to him, —and sold his birthright to Jacob.
34 Jakobi apesaki Ezawu lipa mpe elubu ya misili. Ezawu aliaki mpe amelaki, bongo atelemaki mpe akendeki. Ezali ndenge wana nde Ezawu atiolaki boyaya na ye.
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!
