1 Na ka tangohia e Aperahama tetahi wahine ano, ko Ketura tona ingoa.
And Abraham married another wife, named Cetura:
2 A whanau ake a raua tama ko Timirana, ko Iokohana, ko Merana, ko Miriana, ko Ihipaka, ratou ko Huaha.
Who bore him Zamran, and Jecsan, and Madan, and Madian, and Jesboc, and Sue.
3 A whanau ake a Iokohana ko Hepa, ko Rerana. A ko nga tama a Rerana ko Ahurimi, ko Retuhimi, ko Reumime.
Jecsan also begot Saba and Dadan. The children of Dadan were Assurim, and Latusim, and Loomin.
4 A ko nga tama a Miriana ko Epa, ko Epere, ko Hanoka, ko Apira, ko Ereraaha. He tama katoa enei na Ketura.
But of Madian was born Epha, and Opher, and Henoch, and Abida, and Eldaa: all these were the children of Cetura.
5 A i hoatu e Aperahama ana mea katoa ki a Ihaka.
And Abraham gave all his possessions to Isaac.
6 Ki nga tama ia a nga wahine iti a Aperahama i hoatu e ia etahi taonga, a tonoa atu ana e ia i a ia ano e ora ana kia matara atu i a Ihaka, i tana tama, whaka te rawhiti, ki te whenua i te rawhiti.
And to the children of the concubines he gave gifts, and separated them from Isaac his son, while he yet lived, to the east country.
7 Ko nga ra enei o nga tau o te oranga o Aperahama i ora ai ia, kotahi rau e whitu tekau ma rima nga tau.
And the days of Abraham’s life were a hundred and seventy-five years.
8 Na ka hemo a Aperahama, a ka mate, he pai hoki tona koroheketanga, he kaumatua, kua ata tutuki ona tau; a kohia ana ia ki tona iwi.
And decaying he died in a good old age, and having lived a long time, and being full of days: and was gathered to his people.
9 A ka tanumia ia e ana tama e Ihaka raua ko Ihimaera ki te ana o Makapera, ki te wahi o Eperona tama a Tohara Hiti, i te ritenga o Mamere;
And Isaac and Ismael his sons buried him in the double cave, which was situated in the field of Ephron the son of Seor the Hethite, over against Mambre;
10 Ki te wahi i hokona ra e Aperahama i nga tama a Hete: i tanumia ki reira a Aperahama, raua ko Hara, ko tana wahine.
Which he had bought of the children of Heth: there was he buried, and Sara his wife.
11 A muri iho i te matenga o Aperahama ka manaakitia e te Atua a Ihaka, tana tama; a ka noho a Ihaka ki te taha o Peererahairoi.
And after his death, God blessed Isaac his son, who dwelt by the well named Of the living and seeing.
12 Na ko nga whakatupuranga enei o Ihimaera tama a Aperahama, i whanau nei ma Aperahama i a Hakara, i te Ihipiana, pononga wahine a Hara:
These are the generations of Ismael the son of Abraham, whom Agar the Egyptian, Sara’s servant, bore unto him:
13 A ko nga ingoa enei o nga tama a Ihimaera, o ratou ingoa i o ratou whakatupuranga: ta Ihimaera matamua ko Nepaioto; na, ko Kerara, ko Arapeere, ko Mipihama,
And these are the names of his children according to their calling and generations. The firstborn of Ismael was Nabajoth, then Cedar, and Adbeel, and Mabsam.
14 Ko Mihima, ko Ruma, ko Maha,
And Masma, and Duma, and Massa,
15 Ko Hatara, ko Tema, ko Ieturu, ko Napihi, ko Kerema:
Hadar, and Thema, and Jethur, and Naphis, and Cedma.
16 Ko nga tama enei a Ihimaera, ko o ratou ingoa hoki enei i o ratou pa, i o ratou puni; kotahi tekau ma rua nga rangatira o o ratou iwi.
These are the sons of Ismael: and these are their names by their castles and towns, twelve princes of their tribes.
17 A ko nga tau enei o te oranga o Ihimaera, kotahi rau e toru tekau ma whitu nga tau: na ka hemo ia, a ka mate; ka kohia ki tona iwi.
And the years of Ismael’s life were a hundred and thirty-seven, and decaying he died, and was gathered unto his people.
18 A ko o ratou nohoanga i Hawira a tae noa ki Huru, i te ritenga o Ihipa ina haere koe ki Ahiria: a i noho ia ki te aroaro o ona teina katoa.
And he dwelt from Hevila as far as Sur, which looketh towards Egypt, to them that go towards the Assyrians. He died in the presence of all his brethren.
19 Na ko nga whakatupuranga enei o Ihaka tama a Aperahama: na Aperahama ko Ihaka:
These also are the generations of Isaac the son of Abraham: Abraham begot Isaac:
20 Na e wha tekau nga tau o Ihaka i tana tangohanga i a Ripeka, tamahine a Petuere Hiriani o Paranaarama, tuahine o Rapana Hiriani, hei wahine mana.
Who when he was forty years old, took to wife Rebecca the daughter of Bathuel the Syrian of Mesopotamia, sister to Laban.
21 Na ka inoi a Ihaka ki a Ihowa mo tana wahine, no te mea he pakoko ia: a ka whakaae a Ihowa ki a ia, a ka hapu a Ripeka, tana wahine.
And Isaac besought the Lord for his wife, because she was barren; and he heard him, and made Rebecca to conceive.
22 A ka takatakahi nga tamariki i a raua i roto i a ia; a ka mea ia, Ki te mea ko tenei, he aha ahau i penei ai? Na haere ana ia ki a Ihowa ki te ui.
But the children struggled in her womb: and she said: If it were to be so with me, what need was there to conceive? And she went to consult the Lord.
23 A ka mea a Ihowa ki a ia, e rua nga iwi kei roto i tou kopu, a e rua nga iwi e wehea mai i roto i ou whekau; a ka kaha tetahi iwi i tetahi iwi; ka waiho hoki te tuakana hei papa mo te teina.
And he answering said: Two nations are in thy womb, and two peoples shall be divided out of thy womb, and one people shall overcome the other, and the elder shall serve the younger.
24 A ka rite ona ra e whanau ai ia, na, he mahanga kei roto i tona kopu.
And when her time was come to be delivered, behold twins were found in her womb.
25 Na ka puta mai te tuatahi, he whero, rite katoa ia ki te kakahu huruhuru; a huaina ana e ratou tona ingoa ko Ehau.
He that came forth first was red, and hairy like a skin: and his name was called Esau. Immediately the other coming forth, held his brother’s foot in his hand, and therefore he was called Jacob.
26 A muri iho ka puta mai tona teina, me te pupuri ano tona ringa i te rekereke o Ehau; a huaina iho tona ingoa ko Hakopa; a e ono tekau nga tau o Ihaka i to raua whanautanga.
Isaac was threescore years old when the children were born unto him.
27 Na ka tupu nga tamariki ra: ko Ehau he tangata mohio ki te hopu kirehe mohoao, he tangata noho koraha; ko Hakopa ia he tangata ata noho, he tangata noho teneti.
And when they were grown up, Esau became a skillful hunter, and a husbandman, but Jacob a plain man dwelt in tents.
28 Na i aroha a Ihaka ki a Ehau, he kai nona i ana i hopu ai: ko Ripeka i aroha ki a Hakopa.
Isaac loved Esau, because he ate of his hunting: and Rebecca loved Jacob.
29 Na ka kohuatia he kai e Hakopa, a ka haere mai a Ehau i te koraha, a e hemo ana ia:
And Jacob boiled pottage: to whom Esau, coming faint out of the field,
30 A ka mea a Ehau ki a Hakopa, E, homai he kai maku i taua mea whero e whero na, ne? e hemo ana hoki ahau: koia i huaina ai tona ingoa ko Eroma.
Said: Give me of this red pottage, for I am exceeding faint. For which reason his name was called Edom.
31 Na ko te meatanga mai a Hakopa, Hokona mai ki ahau i tenei ra tou matamuatanga.
And Jacob said to him: Sell me thy first birthright.
32 Na ka mea a Ehau, Na, kua tata ahau te mate: a he aha te hua o te matamuatanga ki ahau?
He answered: Lo I die, what will the first birthright avail me?
33 A ka mea a Hakopa, Oati mai ki ahau aianei; na ka oati ia ki a ia: a ka hokona atu e ia tona matamuatanga ki a Hakopa.
Jacob said: Swear therefore to me. Esau swore to him, and sold his first birthright.
34 Katahi ka hoatu e Hakopa he taro ki a Ehau me nga pi i kohuatia ra: na ka kai ia, ka inu, ka whakatika hoki, haere ana: na whakahaweatia ana e Ehau tona matamuatanga.
And so taking bread and the pottage of lentils, he ate, and drank, and went his way; making little account of having sold his first birthright.
