Genesis 25
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Septuagint (Brenton Greek text, with Apocrypha)
1And Abraham took another wife, and her name was Keturah.
1Προσθέμενος δὲ Ἁβραὰμ ἔλαβε γυναῖκα, ᾗ ὄνομα Χεττούρα.
2And she bore him Zimran, and Jokshan, and Medan, and Midian, and Ishbak, and Shuah.
2Ἔτεκε δὲ αὐτῷ τὸν Ζομβρᾶν, καὶ τὸν Ἰεζὰν, καὶ τὸν Μαδὰλ, καὶ τὸν Μαδιὰμ, καὶ τὸν Ἰεσβὼκ, καὶ τὸν Σωίε.
3And Jokshan begot Sheba, and Dedan. And the sons of Dedan were Asshurim, and Letushim, and Leummim.
3Ἰεζὰν δὲ ἐγέννησε τὸν Σαβὰ, καὶ τὸν Δεδάν· υἱοὶ δὲ Δεδὰν Ἀσσουριεὶμ, καὶ Λατουσιεὶμ, καὶ Λαωμείμ.
4And the sons of Midian: Ephah, and Epher, and Hanoch, and Abida, and Eldaah. All these were the children of Keturah.
4Υἱοὶ δὲ Μαδιὰμ Γεφὰρ, καὶ Ἀφεὶρ, καὶ Ἐνὼχ, καὶ Ἀβειδὰ, καὶ Ἐλδαγά· πάντες οὗτοι ἦσαν υἱοὶ Χεττούρας.
5And Abraham gave all that he had unto Isaac.
5Ἔδωκε δὲ Ἁβραὰμ πάντα τὰ ὑπάρχοντα αὐτοῦ Ἰσαὰκ τῷ υἱῷ αὐτοῦ.
6But unto the sons of the concubines, that Abraham had, Abraham gave gifts; and he sent them away from Isaac his son, while he yet lived, eastward, unto the east country.
6Καὶ τοῖς υἱοῖς τῶν παλλακῶν αὐτοῦ ἔδωκεν Ἁβραὰμ δόματα, καὶ ἐξαπέστειλεν αὐτοὺς ἀπὸ Ἰσαὰκ τοῦ υἱοῦ αὐτοῦ, ἔτι ζῶντος αὐτοῦ, πρὸς ἀνατολὰς εἰς γῆν ἀνατολῶν.
7And these are the days of the years of Abraham's life which he lived, a hundred threescore and fifteen years.
7Ταῦτα δὲ τὰ ἔτη ἡμερῶν τῆς ζωῆς Ἁβραὰμ ὅσα ἔζησεν, ἑκατὸν ἑβδομηκονταπεντε ἔτη.
8And Abraham expired, and died in a good old age, an old man, and full of years; and was gathered to his people.
8Καὶ ἐκλείπων ἀπέθανεν Ἁβραὰμ ἐν γήρᾳ καλῷ πρεσβύτης, καὶ πλήρης ἡμερῶν, καὶ προσετέθη πρὸς τὸν λαὸν αὐτοῦ.
9And Isaac and Ishmael his sons buried him in the cave of Machpelah, in the field of Ephron the son of Zohar the Hittite, which is before Mamre;
9Καὶ ἔθαψαν αὐτὸν Ἰσαὰκ καὶ Ἰσμαὴλ οἱ υἱοὶ αὐτοῦ εἰς τὸ σπήλαιον τὸ διπλοῦν, εἰς τὸν ἀγρὸν Ἐφρων τοῦ Σαὰρ τοῦ Χετταίου, ὅς ἐστιν ἀπέναντι Μαμβρῆ,
10the field which Abraham purchased of the children of Heth; there was Abraham buried, and Sarah his wife.
10τὸν ἀγρὸν καὶ τὸ σπήλαιον, ὃ ἐκτήσατο Ἁβραὰμ παρὰ τῶν υἱῶν τοῦ Χέτ· ἐκεῖ ἔθαψαν Ἁβραὰμ, καὶ Σάῤῥαν τὴν γυναῖκα αὐτοῦ.
11And it came to pass after the death of Abraham, that God blessed Isaac his son; and Isaac dwelt by Beer-lahai-roi.
11Ἐγένετο δὲ μετὰ τὸ ἀποθανεῖν Ἁβραὰμ, εὐλόγησεν ὁ Θεὸς τὸν Ἰσαὰκ υἱὸν αὐτοῦ· καὶ κατῴκησεν Ἰσαὰκ παρὰ τὸ φρέαρ τῆς ὁράσεως.
12Now these are the generations of Ishmael, Abraham's son, whom Hagar the Egyptian, Sarah's handmaid, bore unto Abraham.
12Αὗται δὲ αἱ γενέσεις Ἰσμαὴλ τοῦ υἱοῦ Ἁβραὰμ, ὃν ἔτεκεν Ἄγαρ ἡ Αἰγυπτία, ἡ παιδίσκη Σάῤῥας, τῷ Ἁβραάμ.
13And these are the names of the sons of Ishmael, by their names, according to their generations: the first-born of Ishmael, Nebaioth; and Kedar, and Adbeel, and Mibsam,
13Καὶ ταῦτα τὰ ὀνόματα τῶν υἱῶν Ἰσμαὴλ, κατʼ ὀνόματα τῶν γενεῶν αὐτοῦ· πρωτότοκος Ἰσμαὴλ, καὶ Ναβαϊὼθ, καὶ Κηδὰρ, καὶ Ναβδεὴλ, καὶ Μασσὰμ,
14and Mishma, and Dumah, and Massa;
14καὶ Μασμὰ, καὶ Δουμὰ, καὶ Μασσῆ,
15Hadad, and Tema, Jetur, Naphish, and Kedem;
15καὶ Χοδδὰν, καὶ Θαιμὰν, καὶ Ἰετοὺρ, καὶ Ναφὲς, καὶ Κεδμά.
16these are the sons of Ishmael, and these are their names, by their villages, and by their encampments; twelve princes according to their nations.
16οὗτοί εἰσιν οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰσμαὴλ, καὶ ταῦτα τὰ ὀνόματα αὐτῶν ἐν ταῖς σκηναῖς αὐτῶν, καὶ ἐν ταῖς ἐπαύλεσιν αὐτῶν· δώδεκα ἄρχοντες κατὰ ἔθνη αὐτῶν.
17And these are the years of the life of Ishmael, a hundred and thirty and seven years; and he expired and died; and was gathered unto his people.
17Καὶ ταῦτα τὰ ἔτη τῆς ζωῆς Ἰσμαὴλ, ἑκατὸν τριακονταεπτὰ ἔτη· καὶ ἐκλείπων ἀπέθανε, καὶ προσετέθη πρὸς τὸ γένος αὐτοῦ.
18And they dwelt from Havilah unto Shur that is before Egypt, as thou goest toward Asshur: over against all his brethren he did settle.
18Κατῴκησε δὲ ἀπὸ Εὐϊλὰτ ἕως Σοὺρ, ἥ ἐστι κατὰ πρόσωπον Αἰγύπτου ἕως ἐλθεῖν πρὸς Ἀσσυρίους· κατὰ πρόσωπον πάντων τῶν ἀδελφῶν αὐτοῦ κατῴκησε.
19And these are the generations of Isaac, Abraham's son: Abraham begot Isaac.
19Καὶ αὗται αἱ γενέσεις Ἰσαὰκ τοῦ υἱοῦ Ἁβραάμ· Ἁβραάμ ἐγέννησε τὸν Ἰσαάκ.
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.
20Ἦν δὲ Ἰσαὰκ ἐτῶν τεσσαράκοντα ὅτε ἔλαβε τὴν Ῥεβέκκαν θυγατέρα Βαθουὴλ τοῦ Σύρου ἐκ τῆς Μεσοποταμίας Συρίας, ἀδελφὴν Λάβαν τοῦ Σύρου, ἑαυτῷ εἰς γυναῖκα.
21And Isaac entreated the LORD for his wife, because she was barren; and the LORD let Himself be entreated of him, and Rebekah his wife conceived.
21Ἐδέετο δὲ Ἰσαὰκ Κυρίου περὶ Ῥεβέκκας τῆς γυναικὸς αὐτοῦ, ὅτι στεῖρα ἦν· ἐπήκουσε δὲ αὐτοῦ ὁ Θεὸς, καὶ συνέλαβεν ἐν γαστρὶ Ῥεβέκκα ἡ γυνὴ αὐτοῦ.
22And the children struggled together within her; and she said: 'If it be so, wherefore do I live?' And she went to inquire of the LORD.
22Ἐσκίρτων δὲ τὰ παιδία ἐν αὐτῇ· εἶπε δὲ, εἰ οὕτω μοι μέλλει γίνεσθαι, ἵνα τί μοι τοῦτο; ἐπορεύθη δὲ πυθέσθαι παρὰ Κυρίου.
23And the LORD said unto her: Two nations are in thy womb, and two peoples shall be separated from thy bowels; and the one people shall be stronger than the other people; and the elder shall serve the younger.
23Καὶ εἶπε Κύριος αὐτῇ, δύο ἔθνη ἐν γαστρί σου εἰσὶ, καὶ δύο λαοὶ ἐκ τῆς κοιλίας σου διασταλήσονται· καὶ λαὸς λαοῦ ὑπερέξει, καὶ ὁ μείζων δουλεύσει τῷ ἐλάσσονι.
24And when her days to be delivered were fulfilled, behold, there were twins in her womb.
24Καὶ ἐπληρώθησαν αἱ ἡμέραι τοῦ τεκεῖν αὐτήν· καὶ τῇδε ἦν δίδυμα ἐν τῇ κοιλίᾳ αὐτῆς.
25And the first came forth ruddy, all over like a hairy mantle; and they called his name Esau.
25Ἐξῆλθε δὲ ὁ πρωτότοκος πυῤῥάκης· ὅλος, ὡσεὶ δορὰ, δασύς· ἐπωνόμασε δὲ τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ, Ἡσαῦ.
26And after that came forth his brother, and his hand had hold on Esau's heel; and his name was called Jacob. And Isaac was threescore years old when she bore them.
26Καὶ μετὰ τοῦτο ἐξῆλθεν ὁ ἀδελφὸς αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἡ χεὶρ αὐτοῦ ἐπειλημμένη τῆς πτέρνης Ἡσαῦ· καὶ ἐκάλεσε τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ, Ἰακώβ. Ἰσαὰκ δὲ ἦν ἐτῶν ἑξήκοντα, ὅτε ἔτεκεν αὐτοὺς Ῥεβέκκα.
27And the boys grew; and Esau was a cunning hunter, a man of the field; and Jacob was a quiet man, dwelling in tents.
27Ηὐξήθησαν δὲ οἱ νεανίσκοι· καὶ ἦν Ἡσαῦ ἄνθρωπος εἰδὼς κυνηγεῖν, ἄγροικος· Ἰακὼβ δὲ ἄνθρωπος ἄπλαστος, οἰκῶν οἰκίαν.
28Now Isaac loved Esau, because he did eat of his venison; and Rebekah loved Jacob.
28Ἠγάπησε δὲ Ἰσαὰκ τὸν Ἡσαῦ, ὅτι ἡ θήρα αὐτοῦ βρῶσις αὐτῷ· Ῥεβέκκα δὲ ἠγάπα τὸν Ἰακώβ.
29And Jacob sod pottage; and Esau came in from the field, and he was faint.
29Ἥψησε δὲ Ἰακὼβ ἕψημα· ἦλθε δὲ Ἡσαῦ ἐκ τοῦ πεδίου ἐκλείπων.
30And Esau said to Jacob: 'Let me swallow, I pray thee, some of this red, red pottage; for I am faint.' Therefore was his name called Edom.
30Καὶ εἶπεν Ἡσαῦ τῷ Ἰακὼβ, γεῦσόν με ἀπὸ τοῦ ἑψήματος πυῤῥου τούτου, ὅτι ἐκλείπω· διὰ τοῦτο ἐκλήθη τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ, Ἐδώμ.
31And Jacob said: 'Sell me first thy birthright.'
31Εἶπε δὲ Ἰακὼβ τῷ Ἡσαῦ, ἀπόδου μοι σήμερον τὰ πρωτοτόκιά σου ἐμοί.
32And Esau said: 'Behold, I am at the point to die; and what profit shall the birthright do to me?'
32Καὶ εἶπεν Ἡσαῦ, ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ πορεύομαι τελευτᾷν· καὶ ἵνα τί μοι ταῦτα τὰ πρωτοτόκια;
33And Jacob said: 'Swear to me first'; and he swore unto him; and he sold his birthright unto Jacob.
33Καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ Ἰακὼβ, ὄμοσόν μοι σήμερον· καὶ ὤμοσεν αὐτῷ· ἀπέδοτο δὲ Ἡσαῦ τὰ πρωτοτόκια τῷ Ἰακώβ.
34And Jacob gave Esau bread and pottage of lentils; and he did eat and drink, and rose up, and went his way. So Esau despised his birthright.
34Ἰακὼβ δὲ ἔδωκε τῷ Ἠσαῦ ἄρτον, καὶ ἕψημα φακοῦ· καὶ ἔφαγε καὶ ἔπιε, καὶ ἀναστὰς ᾤχετο· καὶ ἐφαύλισεν Ἡσαῦ τὰ πρωτοτόκια.
