And the sons{H1121} of Dedan{H1719} were Asshurim{H805}, and Letushim{H3912}, and Leummim{H3817}. 4 And the sons{H1121} of Midian{H4080}; Ephah{H5891}, and Epher{H6081}, and Hanoch{H2585}, and Abida{H28}, and Eldaah{H420}. All these were the children{H1121} of Keturah{H6989}. 5 And Abraham{H85} gave{H5414}{(H8799)} all that he had unto Isaac{H3327}. 6 But unto the sons{H1121} of the concubines{H6370}, which Abraham{H85} had, Abraham{H85} gave{H5414}{(H8804)} gifts{H4979}, and sent them away{H7971}{(H8762)} from Isaac{H3327} his son{H1121}, while he yet lived{H2416}, eastward{H6924}, unto the east{H6924} country{H776}. 7 And these are the days{H3117} of the years{H8141} of Abraham's{H85} life{H2416} which he lived{H2425}{(H8804)}, an hundred{H3967}{H8141} threescore and fifteen{H7657}{H8141}{H2568} years{H8141}. 8 Then Abraham{H85} gave up the ghost{H1478}{(H8799)}, and died{H4191}{(H8799)} in a good{H2896} old age{H7872}, an old man{H2205}, and full{H7649} of years; and was gathered{H622}{(H8735)} to his people{H5971}. 9 And his sons{H1121} Isaac{H3327} and Ishmael{H3458} buried{H6912}{(H8799)} him in the cave{H4631} of Machpelah{H4375}, in the field{H7704} of Ephron{H6085} the son{H1121} of Zohar{H6714} the Hittite{H2850}, which is before{H6440} Mamre{H4471}; 10 The field{H7704} which Abraham{H85} purchased{H7069}{(H8804)} of the sons{H1121} of Heth{H2845}: there was Abraham{H85} buried{H6912}{(H8795)}, and Sarah{H8283} his wife{H802}. 11 And it came to pass after{H310} the death{H4194} of Abraham{H85}, that God{H430} blessed{H1288}{(H8762)} his son{H1121} Isaac{H3327}; and Isaac{H3327} dwelt{H3427}{(H8799)} by{H5973} the well Lahairoi{H883}. 12 Now these are the generations{H8435} of Ishmael{H3458}, Abraham's{H85} son{H1121}, whom Hagar{H1904} the Egyptian{H4713}, Sarah's{H8283} handmaid{H8198}, bare{H3205}{(H8804)} unto Abraham{H85}: 13 And these are the names{H8034} of the sons{H1121} of Ishmael{H3458}, by their names{H8034}, according to their generations{H8435}: the firstborn{H1060} of Ishmael{H3458}, Nebajoth{H5032}; and Kedar{H6938}, and Adbeel{H110}, and Mibsam{H4017}, 14 And Mishma{H4927}, and Dumah{H1746}, and Massa{H4854}, 15 Hadar{H2316}, and Tema{H8485}, Jetur{H3195}, Naphish{H5305}, and Kedemah{H6929}: 16 These are the sons{H1121} of Ishmael{H3458}, and these are their names{H8034}, by their towns{H2691}, and by their castles{H2918}; twelve{H8147}{H6240} princes{H5387} according to their nations{H523}. 17 And these are the years{H8141} of the life{H2416} of Ishmael{H3458}, an hundred{H3967}{H8141} and thirty{H7970}{H8141} and seven{H7651} years{H8141}: and he gave up the ghost{H1478}{(H8799)} and died{H4191}{(H8799)}; and was gathered{H622}{(H8735)} unto his people{H5971}. 18 And they dwelt{H7931}{(H8799)} from Havilah{H2341} unto Shur{H7793}, that is before{H6440} Egypt{H4714}, as thou goest{H935}{(H8800)} toward Assyria{H804}: and he died{H5307}{(H8804)} in the presence{H6440} of all his brethren{H251}. 19 And these are the generations{H8435} of Isaac{H3327}, Abraham's{H85} son{H1121}: Abraham{H85} begat{H3205}{(H8689)} Isaac{H3327}: 20 And Isaac{H3327} was forty{H705} years{H8141} old{H1121} when he took{H3947}{(H8800)} Rebekah{H7259} to wife{H802}, the daughter{H1323} of Bethuel{H1328} the Syrian{H761} of Padanaram{H6307}, the sister{H269} to Laban{H3837} the Syrian{H761}. 21 And Isaac{H3327} intreated{H6279}{(H8799)} the LORD{H3068} for{H5227} his wife{H802}, because she was barren{H6135}: and the LORD{H3068} was intreated{H6279}{(H8735)} of him, and Rebekah{H7259} his wife{H802} conceived{H2029}{(H8799)}. 22 And the children{H1121} struggled together{H7533}{(H8704)} within her{H7130}; and she said{H559}{(H8799)}, If it be so, why am I thus{H2088}? And she went{H3212}{(H8799)} to enquire{H1875}{(H8800)} of the LORD{H3068}. 23 And the LORD{H3068} said{H559}{(H8799)} unto her, Two{H8147} nations{H1471} are in thy womb{H990}, and two manner{H8147} of people{H3816} shall be separated{H6504}{(H8735)} from thy bowels{H4578}; and the one people{H3816} shall be stronger{H553}{(H8799)} than the other people{H3816}; and the elder{H7227} shall serve{H5647}{(H8799)} the younger{H6810}. 24 And when her days{H3117} to be delivered{H3205}{(H8800)} were fulfilled{H4390}{(H8799)}, behold, there were twins{H8380} in her womb{H990}. 25 And the first{H7223} came out{H3318}{(H8799)} red{H132}, all over like an hairy{H8181} garment{H155}; and they called{H7121}{(H8799)} his name{H8034} Esau{H6215}. 26 And after{H310} that came{H3318} his brother{H251} out{H3318}{(H8804)}, and his hand{H3027} took hold{H270}{(H8802)} on Esau's{H6215} heel{H6119}; and his name{H8034} was called{H7121}{(H8799)} Jacob{H3290}: and Isaac{H3327} was threescore{H8346} years{H8141} old{H1121} when she bare{H3205}{(H8800)} them. 27 And the boys{H5288} grew{H1431}{(H8799)}: and Esau{H6215} was a cunning{H3045}{(H8802)} hunter{H6718}, a man{H376} of the field{H7704}; and Jacob{H3290} was a plain{H8535} man{H376}, dwelling{H3427}{(H8802)} in tents{H168}. 28 And Isaac{H3327} loved{H157}{(H8799)} Esau{H6215}, because he did eat{H6310} of his venison{H6718}: but Rebekah{H7259} loved{H157}{(H8802)} Jacob{H3290}. 29 And Jacob{H3290} sod{H2102}{(H8686)} pottage{H5138}: and Esau{H6215} came{H935}{(H8799)} from the field{H7704}, and he was faint{H5889}: 30 And Esau{H6215} said{H559}{(H8799)} to Jacob{H3290}, Feed{H3938}{(H8685)} me, I pray thee, with{H4480} that same{H122} red{H122} pottage; for I am faint{H5889}: therefore was his name{H8034} called{H7121}{(H8804)} Edom{H123}. 31 And Jacob{H3290} said{H559}{(H8799)}, Sell{H4376}{(H8798)} me this day{H3117} thy birthright{H1062}. 32 And Esau{H6215} said{H559}{(H8799)}, Behold, I am at the point{H1980}{(H8802)} to die{H4191}{(H8800)}: and what profit shall this birthright{H1062} do to me? 33 And Jacob{H3290} said{H559}{(H8799)}, Swear{H7650}{(H8734)} to me this day{H3117}; and he sware{H7650}{(H8735)} unto him: and he sold{H4376}{(H8799)} his birthright{H1062} unto Jacob{H3290}. 34 Then Jacob{H3290} gave{H5414}{(H8804)} Esau{H6215} bread{H3899} and pottage{H5138} of lentiles{H5742}; and he did eat{H398}{(H8799)} and drink{H8354}{(H8799)}, and rose up{H6965}{(H8799)}, and went his way{H3212}{(H8799)}: thus Esau{H6215} despised{H959}{(H8799)} his birthright{H1062}.
