1And Abraham married another wife, named Cetura:
1Abraham loe zu maeto lak let, anih ih ahmin loe Keturah.
2Who bore him Zamran, and Jecsan, and Madan, and Madian, and Jesboc, and Sue.
2Anih mah Zimran, Jokshan, Medan, Median, Ishbak hoi Shuah to sak pae.
3Jecsan also begot Saba and Dadan. The children of Dadan were Assurim, and Latusim, and Loomin.
3Jokshan mah Sheba hoi Dedan to sak. Dedan ih caanawk loe Asshur kaminawk, Letush kaminawk hoi Leum kaminawk ah oh o.
4But of Madian was born Epha, and Opher, and Henoch, and Abida, and Eldaa: all these were the children of Cetura.
4Midian caanawk loe Ephah, Epher, Hanok, Abidah hoi Eldaah. Hae kaminawk boih loe Keturah mah sak ih caanawk ah oh o.
5And Abraham gave all his possessions to Isaac.
5Abraham loe a tawnh ih hmuennawk boih Issak hanah paek.
6And to the children of the concubines he gave gifts, and separated them from Isaac his son, while he yet lived, to the east country.
6Toe a hing naah angmah zula ih caanawk hanah tangqumnawk to a paek moe, nihcae to a capa Issak hma hoi ni angyae bangah patoeh boih.
7And the days of Abraham’s life were a hundred and seventy-five years.
7Abraham loe mitong boeh moe, saning cumvai qui sarih, pangato hing.
8And decaying he died in a good old age, and having lived a long time, and being full of days: and was gathered to his people.
8To tiah mitong moe, hinghaih qui apet pacoengah a duek, to pacoengah angmah ih kaminawk khaeah caeh.
9And Isaac and Ismael his sons buried him in the double cave, which was situated in the field of Ephron the son of Seor the Hethite, over against Mambre;
9A caa Issak hoi Ishmael mah Mamre vangpui pha ai nathuem ih, Hit kami Zohar capa Ephron ih lawk thungah kaom, Makpelah thlung khaw thungah aphum hoi.
10Which he had bought of the children of Heth: there was he buried, and Sara his wife.
10To lawk loe Abraham mah Hit kaminawk khaeah qanh; Abraham hoi a zu Sarah loe to ahmuen ah aphum hoi hmaek.
11And after his death, God blessed Isaac his son, who dwelt by the well named Of the living and seeing.
11Abraham duek pacoengah, Sithaw mah Issak to tahamhoihaih paek; Issak loe Beer Lahai Roi taengah khosak.
12These are the generations of Ismael the son of Abraham, whom Agar the Egyptian, Sara’s servant, bore unto him:
12Sarah ih tamna Izip tanuh, Hagar mah Abraham han sak pae ih, Abraham capa Ishmael ih caanawk kawng loe hae tiah oh.
13And these are the names of his children according to their calling and generations. The firstborn of Ismael was Nabajoth, then Cedar, and Adbeel, and Mabsam.
13Ishmael caanawk ih ahmin loe, angmacae acaeng anghumhaih ahmin baktih toengah, calu ah Nebajoth, Keder, Adbeel, Mibsam;
14And Masma, and Duma, and Massa,
14Mishma, Dumah, Massa,
15Hadar, and Thema, and Jethur, and Naphis, and Cedma.
15Hadar, Tema, Jetur, Naphish hoi Kedemah;
16These are the sons of Ismael: and these are their names by their castles and towns, twelve princes of their tribes.
16hae kaminawk loe Ishmael ih caa ah oh o, to tiah ahmin kaom kaminawk loe, angmacae ih vangpui, angmacae misa abuephaih baktih toengah, acaeng hatlai hnetto ukkung ah oh o roep.
17And the years of Ismael’s life were a hundred and thirty-seven, and decaying he died, and was gathered unto his people.
17Ishamael loe saning cumvai qui thum, sarihto hing; a hinghaih qui apet moe, duek pacoengah, angmah ih kaminawk khaeah angkuem.
18And he dwelt from Hevila as far as Sur, which looketh towards Egypt, to them that go towards the Assyrians. He died in the presence of all his brethren.
18Anih ih caanawk loe Assyria prae caehhaih loklam, Havilah hoi Izip prae ni angyae bang ih Shur vangpui khoek to khosak o; anih loe angmah ih nawkamyanawk boih hma ah duek.
19These also are the generations of Isaac the son of Abraham: Abraham begot Isaac:
19Abraham capa, Issak kawng loe hae tiah oh; Abraham mah Issak to sak;
20Who when he was forty years old, took to wife Rebecca the daughter of Bathuel the Syrian of Mesopotamia, sister to Laban.
20Issak loe Padan Aram ahmuen ah kaom, Syria acaeng Bethuel ih canu, Syria acaeng Laban ih tanuh, Rebekah to zu ah lak naah, saning qui palito oh boeh.
21And Isaac besought the Lord for his wife, because she was barren; and he heard him, and made Rebecca to conceive.
21A zu loe caa kaak pongah, Issak mah a zu hanah Angraeng khaeah lawkthuih pae; Angraeng mah lawkthuihaih lok to tahngaih pae pongah, a zu Rebekah loe zokpomh.
22But the children struggled in her womb: and she said: If it were to be so with me, what need was there to conceive? And she went to consult the Lord.
22A zok thung ih nawkta loe maeto hoi maeto ang-et hoi khing; to naah amno mah, Tipongah hae tiah oh vai? tiah poek. To pongah lokdueng hanah Angraeng khaeah a caeh.
23And he answering said: Two nations are in thy womb, and two peoples shall be divided out of thy womb, and one people shall overcome the other, and the elder shall serve the younger.
23Angraeng mah anih khaeah, Na zok thungah kami acaeng hnetto oh; na zok thung hoiah tuinuen kalah acaeng hnetto tacawt tih; acaeng maeto loe kalah acaeng maeto pongah thacak kue ueloe, kacoeh mah kanawk ih tok to sah pae tih, tiah a naa.
24And when her time was come to be delivered, behold twins were found in her womb.
24Nawkta zahhaih tue phak naah, anih zok thung ih nawkta loe angphae.
25He that came forth first was red, and hairy like a skin: and his name was called Esau. Immediately the other coming forth, held his brother’s foot in his hand, and therefore he was called Jacob.
25Tacawt hmaloe loe ngan to thim dung, a tak loe amui cing ah oh; to pongah anih to Esau, tiah ahmin phui.
26Isaac was threescore years old when the children were born unto him.
26To pacoengah amnawk to tapen; a ban hoiah Esau ih khok tahmawh to patawnh; to pongah anih to Jakob, tiah ahmin sak; Rebakah mah nihnik to sak naah, Issak loe saning qui tarukto oh boeh.
27And when they were grown up, Esau became a skillful hunter, and a husbandman, but Jacob a plain man dwelt in tents.
27Nawkta hnik loe qoeng hoi tahang, Esau loe moi kat kop kami, moi zoep thaih kami ah oh; toe Jakob loe kaom duem kami ah oh moe, kahni imthung ah oh.
28Isaac loved Esau, because he ate of his hunting: and Rebecca loved Jacob.
28Issak loe taw ih moi to caak pongah Esau to palung, toe Rebekah mah loe Jakob to palung.
29And Jacob boiled pottage: to whom Esau, coming faint out of the field,
29Nito naah loe Jakob mah caak koi maeto thongh, to naah Esau loe taw hoiah angzoh moe, zok amthlam parai pongah,
30Said: Give me of this red pottage, for I am exceeding faint. For which reason his name was called Edom.
30Esau mah Jakob khaeah, Na thongh ih kamling huep caak koi to na paek thoem ah, zok amthlam parai boeh, tiah a naa. To pongah anih ih ahmin to Edom, tiah sak.
31And Jacob said to him: Sell me thy first birthright.
31To naah Jakob mah, Calu ah na ohhaih to vaihniah kai khaeah na zaw ah, tiah a naa.
32He answered: Lo I die, what will the first birthright avail me?
32To naah Esau mah, Khenah, ka duek tom boeh; calu ah ohhaih loe timaw atho oh? tiah a thuih.
33Jacob said: Swear therefore to me. Esau swore to him, and sold his first birthright.
33Jakob mah vaihniah kai khaeah lokkamhaih sah ah, tiah a naa. Esau mah anih khaeah lokkamhaih sak pacoengah, calu ah ohhaih to Jakob khaeah a zawh.
34And so taking bread and the pottage of lentils, he ate, and drank, and went his way; making little account of having sold his first birthright.
34To pacoengah Jakob mah takaw hoi peh to Esau hanah paek; anih mah caak moe, naek pacoengah, angthawk moe, a caeh. To tiah Esau mah calu ah ohhaih to khet patoek.
