1Then again Abraham took a wife, and her name Keturah. 2And she bare him Zimran, and Jokshan, and Medan, and Midian, and Ishbak, and Shuah. 3And Jokshan begat Sheba, and Dedan. And the sons of Dedan were Asshurim, and Letushim, and Leummim. 4And the sons of Midian; Ephah, and Epher, and Hanoch, and Abida, and Eldaah. All these the children of Keturah. 5And Abraham gave all that he had unto Isaac. 6But unto the sons of the concubines, which Abraham had, Abraham gave gifts, and sent them away from Isaac his son, while he yet lived, eastward, unto the east country. 7And these the days of the years of Abraham's life which he lived, an hundred threescore and fifteen years. 8Then Abraham gave up the ghost, and died in a good old age, an old man, and full ; and was gathered to his people. 9And his sons Isaac and Ishmael buried him in the cave of Machpelah, in the field of Ephron the son of Zohar the Hittite, which before Mamre; 10The field which Abraham purchased of the sons of Heth: there was Abraham buried, and Sarah his wife. 11And it came to pass after the death of Abraham, that Elohim blessed his son Isaac; and Isaac dwelt by the well Lahairoi. 12Now these the generations of Ishmael, Abraham's son, whom Hagar the Egyptian, Sarah's handmaid, bare unto Abraham: 13And these the names of the sons of Ishmael, by their names, according to their generations: the firstborn of Ishmael, Nebajoth; and Kedar, and Adbeel, and Mibsam, 14And Mishma, and Dumah, and Massa, 15Hadar, and Tema, Jetur, Naphish, and Kedemah: 16These the sons of Ishmael, and these their names, by their towns, and by their castles; twelve princes according to their nations. 17And these the years of the life of Ishmael, an hundred and thirty and seven years: and he gave up the ghost and died; and was gathered unto his people. 18And they dwelt from Havilah unto Shur, that before Egypt, as you goest toward Assyria: he died in the presence of all his brethren. 19And these the generations of Isaac, Abraham's son: Abraham begat Isaac: 20And Isaac was forty years old when he took Rebekah to wife, the daughter of Bethuel the Syrian of Padanaram, the sister to Laban the Syrian. 21And Isaac intreated the Yahuah for his wife, because she barren: and the Yahuah was intreated of him, and Rebekah his wife conceived. 22And the children struggled together within her; and she said, If so, why I thus? And she went to enquire of the Yahuah. 23And the Yahuah said unto her, Two nations in your womb, and two manner of people shall be separated from your bowels; and people shall be stronger than people; and the elder shall serve the younger. 24And when her days to be delivered were fulfilled, behold, twins in her womb. 25And the first came out red, all over like an hairy garment; and they called his name Esau. 26And after that came his brother out, and his hand took hold on Esau's heel; and his name was called Jacob: and Isaac threescore years old when she bare them. 27And the boys grew: and Esau was a cunning hunter, a man of the field; and Jacob a plain man, dwelling in tents. 28And Isaac loved Esau, because he did eat of venison: but Rebekah loved Jacob. 29And Jacob sod pottage: and Esau came from the field, and he faint: 30And Esau said to Jacob, Feed me, I pray you, with that same red ; for I faint: therefore was his name called Edom. 31And Jacob said, Sell me this day your birthright. 32And Esau said, Behold, I at the point to die: and what profit shall this birthright do to me? 33And Jacob said, Swear to me this day; and he sware unto him: and he sold his birthright unto Jacob. 34Then Jacob gave Esau bread and pottage of lentiles; and he did eat and drink, and rose up, and went his way: thus Esau despised birthright.
