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 Eyi ne Abraham babarima Ismael a Sara afenaa Hagar a ɔyɛ Misraimni no woo no maa Abraham no asefo ho asɛm.
Now these were the descendants of Ishmael, Abraham's son, whom Hagar the Egyptian, Sarah's servant, bore to Abraham.
13 Wɔn a wodidi so yi yɛ Ismael mmabarima a wɔabobɔ wɔn din fi mpanyin mu no. Na Nebaiot yɛ Ismael abakan. Wɔn a wodidi so yi nso yɛ Kedar, Adbeel, Mibsam,

They lived from Havilah to Ashhur, which is near Egypt, as one goes toward Assyria. They lived in hostility with each other.
19 Abraham babarima Isak ne nʼasefo ho asɛm ni. Abraham woo Isak.
These were the events concerning Isaac, Abraham's son. Abraham became the father of Isaac.
20 Isak dii mfirihyia aduanan no, ɔwaree Rebeka a ɔyɛ Aramni Betuel a ofi Paddan-Aram no babea. Rebeka yɛ Aramni Laban nuabea.
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 Isak waree Rebeka mfe bebree a na wɔnwo. Enti Isak bɔɔ Awurade mpae, srɛɛ ɔba maa ne yere. Akyiri no, Awurade tiee ne mpaebɔ, maa ne yere Rebeka nyinsɛnee.
Isaac prayed to Yahweh for his wife because she was childless, and Yahweh answered his prayer, and Rebekah his wife conceived.
22 Bere a Rebeka nyinsɛnee no, ɛtɔ da a, na mmofra no di aperepere wɔ ne yafunu mu. Sɛ ɛba saa a, obisa ne ho se, “Dɛn na ɛreyɛ me yi?” Afei, ɔbɔɔ mpae bisaa Awurade nea ɛkyerɛ.
The children struggled together within her, and she said, “Why is this happening to me?” She went to ask Yahweh about this.
23 Awurade buaa no se, “Aman abien na wɔwɔ wo yafunu mu. Wɔbɛtetew nnipa baanu a wɔwɔ wo yafunu mu no mu. Mmofra baanu no, ɔbaako asefo bɛyɛ ahoɔdenfo asen ne nua a ɔka ne ho no asefo. Na ɔpanyin no bɛsom akumaa no.”
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 Rebeka awo duu so no, ɔwoo ntaten.
When it was time for her to give birth, behold, there were twins in her womb.
25 Na nea odii kan bae no yɛ ɔkɔkɔɔ a ne ho nwi yɛ kuhaa te sɛ nea ɔhyɛ nwi atade. Enti wɔtoo no din Esau.
The first child came out red all over like a hairy garment. They called his name Esau.
26 Eyi akyi no, ne nua no bae a na ne nsa kura Esau nantin; enti wɔtoo ne din Yakob. Rebeka woo wɔn no, na Isak adi mfe aduosia.
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 Mmofra no nyin no, Esau bɛyɛɛ ɔbɔmmɔfo a ɔtow a, ɔmfom. Na ɔyɛ ha fa wuram baabiara. Yakob nso bɛyɛɛ obi a ɔyɛ komm a ɔmpɛ ne ho asɛm. Na bere biara, ɔpɛ sɛ ɔtena fie.
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 Na Isak pɛ Esau asɛm yiye, efisɛ na bere biara ɔkɔyɛ ha de hanam a Isak pɛ ba fie. Nanso na Rebeka de, ɔpɛ Yakob asɛm.
Now Isaac loved Esau because he ate the animals that he had hunted, but Rebekah loved Jacob.
29 Da bi a Esau fi wuram bae a na ɔkɔm de no yiye no, ɔbɛtoo sɛ ne nua kumaa Yakob nso renoa aduan bi a ani yɛ kɔkɔɔ na ɛyɛ akɔnnɔ nso.
Jacob cooked some stew. Esau came in from the field, and he was weak from hunger.
30 Ɔka kyerɛɛ Yakob se, “Mesrɛ wo, ma me wʼaduan a woanoa yi bi nni!” Ɛno nti na wɔfrɛ Esau sɛ Edom, a nkyerɛase ne ade kɔkɔɔ.
Esau said to Jacob, “Feed me with that red stew. Please, I am exhausted!” That is why his name was called Edom.
31 Yakob buae se, “Tɔn wo panyin no ma me ansa.”
Jacob said, “First sell me your birthright.”
32 Esau kae se, “Ɔkɔm rekum me, na mede panyin reyɛ dɛn?”
Esau said, “Look, I am about to die. What good is the birthright to me?”
33 Yakob buaa Esau se, “Mate, ka ntam kyerɛ me wɔ Onyankopɔn anim sɛ, panyin no yɛ me dea.” Esau kaa ntam no de tɔn ne panyin no maa ne nua kumaa Yakob.
Jacob said, “First swear to me,” so Esau swore an oath and in that way he sold his birthright to Jacob.
34 Enti Yakob maa Esau aduan no bi ma odii. Ɔnom nsu guu so, sɔre kɔɔ ne kwan. Eyi ne ɔkwan a Esau faa so tɔn ne panyin no.
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.
