Génesis 25
1 Y Abraham tomó otra mujer llamada Cetura.
[Some time after Sarah died], Abraham married another woman, whose name was Keturah.
2 Ella se convirtió en la madre de Zimran, Jocsan, Medán, Madián, Isbac y Súa.
She later gave birth to six sons: Zimran, Jokshan, Medan, Midian, Ishbak, and Shuah.
3 Y Jocsan, llegó a ser padre de Seba y Dedán, Y de Dedán vinieron los Asurim y Letusim y Leumim.
Jokshan became the father of two sons, Sheba and Dedan. The descendants of Dedan were the Asshur people-group, the Letush people-group, and the Leum people-group.
4 Y de Madián vinieron Efa, Efer, Hanoc, Abida y Elda. Todos estos fueron descendientes de Cetura.
The sons of Midian were Ephah, Epher, Hanoch, Abida, and Eldaah. They were all descendants of Keturah.
5 Ahora bien, Abraham le dio todas sus propiedades a Isaac;
Abraham declared that after he died, Isaac would inherit everything he owned.
6 Pero a los hijos de sus otras mujeres, él les dio ofrendas, y los envió lejos, mientras aún vivía, a la región oriental.
But while Abraham was still living, he gave gifts to the sons of his (concubines/slaves that he had taken to be his secondary wives), and then he sent them away to live in a land to the east, to keep them far from his son Isaac.
7 Ahora los años de la vida de Abraham fueron ciento setenta y cinco.
Abraham lived until he was 175 years old.
8 Y Abraham llegó a su muerte, un anciano, lleno de años; y él fue sepultado con su pueblo.
He died at a very old age, joining his ancestors who had died previously [DOU].
9 Entonces Isaac e Ismael, sus hijos, lo sepultaron en la cueva de Macpela, en el campo de Efrón, hijo de Zohar heteo, cerca de Mamre;
His sons Isaac and Ishmael buried his body in the cave at Machpelah area, near Mamre, in the field that Abraham had previously bought from Ephron, one of the descendants of Heth.
10 El mismo campo que Abraham obtuvo de los hijos de Het: allí Abraham fue sepultado con Sara, su esposa.
Isaac and Ishmael buried his body there, where Abraham previously buried his wife Sarah.
11 Después de la muerte de Abraham, la bendición de Dios fue con Isaac, su hijo; y Gabito cerca al pozo Beer-Lahai-roi.
After Abraham died, God blessed his son Isaac. And Isaac moved to live near Beer-Lahai-Roi.
12 Estas son las generaciones de Ismael, hijo de Abraham, cuya madre fue Agar la egipcia, sierva de Sara:
(These are/I will now give a list of) the descendants of Abraham’s son, Ishmael, to whom Sarah’s female slave, Hagar from Egypt, had given birth.
13 Estos son los nombres de los hijos de Ismael por sus generaciones: el primer hijo de Ismael fue Nebaiot; luego Cedar, Adbeel y Mibsam,
These are their names, in the order in which they were born: Ishmael’s oldest son was named Nebaioth. After him were born Kedar, Adbeel, Mibsam,
14 y Misma y Duma y Massa,
Mishma, Dumah, Massa,
15 Hadad y Tema, Jetur, Nafis, y Cedema:
Hadar, Tema, Jetur, Naphish, and Kedemah.
16 Estos son los hijos de Ismael, y estos son sus nombres en sus ciudades y sus círculos de tiendas; doce jefes con sus pueblos.
The twelve sons of Ishmael became the leaders/chiefs of people-groups that had those names. They each had their own settlement and campsite.
17 Y los años de la vida de Ismael fueron ciento treinta y siete: y llegó a su fin, y fue sepultado con su pueblo.
Ishmael lived until he was 137 years old. Then he died, [EUP] joining his ancestors who had previously died.
18 Y su tierra fué desde Havila hasta Shur, que está al oriente de Egipto; y tomaron su lugar al oriente de todos sus hermanos.
His descendants (settled/went to live) in the area between Shur and Havilah, near the border of Egypt as a person travels toward Asshur. All of their camps were close to each other (OR, they all frequently attacked each other).
19 Estas son las generaciones del hijo de Abraham, Isaac:
(This is an account of/I will now tell you about) Abraham’s son, Isaac. Abraham became the father of Isaac,
20 Isaac tenía cuarenta años cuando tomó por mujer a Rebeca, hija de Betuel arameo de Padan-aram, y hermana de Labán arameo.
and when Isaac was 40 years old, he married Rebekah, the daughter of Bethuel. Bethuel was one of the descendants of Aram from Paddan-Aram. Rebekah was the sister of Laban, who belonged to the Aram people-group.
21 Isaac oró al Señor por su esposa porque ella no tenía hijos; y el Señor oyó su oración, y Rebeca quedó encinta.
Almost 20 years after they were married, Rebekah still had no children. So Isaac prayed to Yahweh concerning his wife, and Yahweh answered his prayer. His wife Rebekah became pregnant.
22 Y los niños peleaban juntos dentro de ella, y ella dijo: Si es así, ¿para qué vivo yo? Entonces ella fue a hacerle su pregunta al Señor.
She was carrying twins in her womb, and they kept jostling each other. So she said, “Why is it [that this is happening to me]?” So she asked Yahweh about it.
23 Y el Señor le dijo: Dos naciones hay en tu cuerpo, y dos pueblos nacerán de ti; el uno será más fuerte que el otro, y el mayor será el criado del menor.
Yahweh said to her, “The older one of your twins will serve the younger one. The twins will be ancestors of two nations. And those two people-groups will separate from each other.” [CHI]
24 Y cuando llegó el momento de dar a luz, había dos niños en su cuerpo.
When Rebekah gave birth, it was true! Twin boys were born!
25 Y el primero salió cubierto de vello rojo de pies a cabeza, y le pusieron el nombre de Esaú.
The first one born was red, and his body had hair all over it, like a garment made of hair. So they named him Esau, [which sounds like the Hebrew word that means ‘hairy'].
26 Y después de él, salió su hermano, y agarró el pie de Esaú; y se llamaba Jacob: Isaac tenía sesenta años cuando ella les dio a luz.
Then his brother was born, grasping Esau’s heel. So they named him Jacob, [which sounds like the Hebrew word that means ‘heel’]. Isaac was 60 years old when the twins were born.
27 Y los muchachos alcanzaron su pleno crecimiento; y Esaú se convirtió en un hombre del campo abierto, un experto arquero; pero Jacob era un hombre callado, viviendo en tiendas de campaña.
When the boys grew up, Esau became a skilled hunter. He spent a lot of time out in the fields. Jacob was a quiet man who stayed close to the campsite.
28 Y el amor de Isaac fue para Esaú, porque la carne de Esaú era grande para su gusto; pero Rebeca tenía más amor por Jacob.
Isaac liked Esau more, because he enjoyed the taste of the meat of the animals that Esau killed. But Rebekah liked Jacob more.
29 Y un día Jacob estaba cocinando una sopa cuando Esaú vino de los campos con gran necesidad de alimento;
One day while Jacob was cooking some stew, Esau came home from the field, very hungry.
30 Y Esaú dijo a Jacob: Dame una comida completa de esa sopa roja, porque estoy abrumado por tanta hambre que tengo; por esta razón fue llamado Edom.
He said to Jacob, “Give me some of that red stew to eat right now, because I am very hungry!” [That is why Esau’s other name was Edom, [which sounds like the Hebrew word that means ‘red]’.]
31 Y Jacob dijo: Antes que nada, dame tu primogenitura.
Jacob said, “I will give you some if you sell me (your birthright/the privileges you have because you are the firstborn son).”
32 Y dijo Esaú: Verdaderamente, estoy en el momento de la muerte: ¿de qué me sirve la primogenitura?
Esau replied, “Well, I am about to die [from being so hungry]. [If I die now], (my birthright will not benefit me./What good will my birthright be to me?)” [RHQ]
33 Y Jacob dijo: Antes que nada, dame tu juramento; y él le dio su juramento, entregando su primogenitura a Jacob.
Jacob said, “(Swear to/Solemnly promise) me that you are giving me the privileges that you will have from being the firstborn son!” So that is what Esau did. He sold his birthright to Jacob.
34 Entonces Jacob le dio pan y sopa; y él tomó comida y bebida y se fue, así menospreció Esaú su primogenitura.
Then Jacob gave to Esau some bread and some stew made of lentils/beans. Esau ate and drank, and then he got up and left. By doing that, Esau showed that he (was not interested in/did not value) the privileges that would be his because of being the firstborn son.
