| 1[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 1Now Abraham took another wife, whose name was Keturah. |
| 2[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 2She bore to him Zimran and Jokshan and Medan and Midian and Ishbak and Shuah. |
| 3[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 3Jokshan became the father of Sheba and Dedan. And the sons of Dedan were Asshurim and Letushim and Leummim. |
| 4[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 4The sons of Midian were Ephah and Epher and Hanoch and Abida and Eldaah. All these were the sons of Keturah. |
| 5[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 5Now Abraham gave all that he had to Isaac; |
| 6[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 6but to the sons of his concubines, Abraham gave gifts while he was still living, and sent them away from his son Isaac eastward, to the land of the east. |
| 7[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 7These are all the years of Abraham's life that he lived, one hundred and seventy-five years. |
| 8[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 8Abraham breathed his last and died in a ripe old age, an old man and satisfied with life; and he was gathered to his people. |
| 9[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 9Then his sons Isaac and Ishmael buried him in the cave of Machpelah, in the field of Ephron the son of Zohar the Hittite, facing Mamre, |
| 10[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 10the field which Abraham purchased from the sons of Heth; there Abraham was buried with Sarah his wife. |
| 11[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 11It came about after the death of Abraham, that God blessed his son Isaac; and Isaac lived by Beer-lahai-roi. |
| 12[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 12Now these are the records of the generations of Ishmael, Abraham's son, whom Hagar the Egyptian, Sarah's maid, bore to Abraham; |
| 13[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 13and these are the names of the sons of Ishmael, by their names, in the order of their birth: Nebaioth, the firstborn of Ishmael, and Kedar and Adbeel and Mibsam |
| 14[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 14and Mishma and Dumah and Massa, |
| 15[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 15Hadad and Tema, Jetur, Naphish and Kedemah. |
| 16[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 16These are the sons of Ishmael and these are their names, by their villages, and by their camps; twelve princes according to their tribes. |
| 17[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 17These are the years of the life of Ishmael, one hundred and thirty-seven years; and he breathed his last and died, and was gathered to his people. |
| 18[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 18They settled from Havilah to Shur which is east of Egypt as one goes toward Assyria; he settled in defiance of all his relatives. |
| 19[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 19Now these are the records of the generations of Isaac, Abraham's son: Abraham became the father of Isaac; |
| 20[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 20and Isaac was forty years old when he took Rebekah, the daughter of Bethuel the Aramean of Paddan-aram, the sister of Laban the Aramean, to be his wife. |
| 21[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 21Isaac prayed to the LORD on behalf of his wife, because she was barren; and the LORD answered him and Rebekah his wife conceived. |
| 22[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 22But the children struggled together within her; and she said, "If it is so, why then am I this way?" So she went to inquire of the LORD. |
| 23[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 23The LORD said to her, "Two nations are in your womb; And two peoples will be separated from your body; And one people shall be stronger than the other; And the older shall serve the younger." |
| 24[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 24When her days to be delivered were fulfilled, behold, there were twins in her womb. |
| 25[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 25Now the first came forth red, all over like a hairy garment; and they named him Esau. |
| 26[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 26Afterward his brother came forth with his hand holding on to Esau's heel, so his name was called Jacob; and Isaac was sixty years old when she gave birth to them. |
| 27[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 27When the boys grew up, Esau became a skillful hunter, a man of the field, but Jacob was a peaceful man, living in tents. |
| 28[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 28Now Isaac loved Esau, because he had a taste for game, but Rebekah loved Jacob. |
| 29[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 29When Jacob had cooked stew, Esau came in from the field and he was famished; |
| 30[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 30and Esau said to Jacob, "Please let me have a swallow of that red stuff there, for I am famished." Therefore his name was called Edom. |
| 31[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 31But Jacob said, "First sell me your birthright." |
| 32[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 32Esau said, "Behold, I am about to die; so of what use then is the birthright to me?" |
| 33[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 33And Jacob said, "First swear to me"; so he swore to him, and sold his birthright to Jacob. |
| 34[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 34Then Jacob gave Esau bread and lentil stew; and he ate and drank, and rose and went on his way. Thus Esau despised his birthright. |
