25Genesis 25

1And Abraham took another wife, and her name was Keturah.Select Genesis 25:1

2And she bore him Zimran, and Jokshan, and Medan, and Midian, and Ishbak, and Shuah.Select Genesis 25:2

3And Jokshan begot Sheba, and Dedan. And the sons of Dedan were Asshurim, and Letushim, and Leummim.Select Genesis 25:3

4And the sons of Midian: Ephah, and Epher, and Hanoch, and Abida, and Eldaah. All these were the children of Keturah.Select Genesis 25:4

5And Abraham gave all that he had unto Isaac.Select Genesis 25:5

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.Select Genesis 25:6

7And these are the days of the years of Abraham's life which he lived, a hundred threescore and fifteen years.Select Genesis 25:7

8And Abraham expired, and died in a good old age, an old man, and full of years; and was gathered to his people.Select Genesis 25:8

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;Select Genesis 25:9

10the field which Abraham purchased of the children of Heth; there was Abraham buried, and Sarah his wife.Select Genesis 25:10

11And it came to pass after the death of Abraham, that God blessed Isaac his son; and Isaac dwelt by Beer-lahai-roi.Select Genesis 25:11

12Now these are the generations of Ishmael, Abraham's son, whom Hagar the Egyptian, Sarah's handmaid, bore unto Abraham.Select Genesis 25:12

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,Select Genesis 25:13

14and Mishma, and Dumah, and Massa;Select Genesis 25:14

15Hadad, and Tema, Jetur, Naphish, and Kedem;Select Genesis 25:15

16these are the sons of Ishmael, and these are their names, by their villages, and by their encampments; twelve princes according to their nations.Select Genesis 25:16

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.Select Genesis 25:17

18And they dwelt from Havilah unto Shur that is before Egypt, as thou goest toward Asshur: over against all his brethren he did settle.Select Genesis 25:18

19And these are the generations of Isaac, Abraham's son: Abraham begot Isaac.Select Genesis 25:19

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.Select Genesis 25:20

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.Select Genesis 25:21

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.Select Genesis 25:22

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.Select Genesis 25:23

24And when her days to be delivered were fulfilled, behold, there were twins in her womb.Select Genesis 25:24

25And the first came forth ruddy, all over like a hairy mantle; and they called his name Esau.Select Genesis 25:25

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.Select Genesis 25:26

27And the boys grew; and Esau was a cunning hunter, a man of the field; and Jacob was a quiet man, dwelling in tents.Select Genesis 25:27

28Now Isaac loved Esau, because he did eat of his venison; and Rebekah loved Jacob.Select Genesis 25:28

29And Jacob sod pottage; and Esau came in from the field, and he was faint.Select Genesis 25:29

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.Select Genesis 25:30

31And Jacob said: 'Sell me first thy birthright.'Select Genesis 25:31

32And Esau said: 'Behold, I am at the point to die; and what profit shall the birthright do to me?'Select Genesis 25:32

33And Jacob said: 'Swear to me first'; and he swore unto him; and he sold his birthright unto Jacob.Select Genesis 25:33

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.Select Genesis 25:34
