1Now Abraham had taken him another wife called Keturah,
2Which bare him Zimran, and Jokshan, and Medan, and Midian, and Ishbak, and Shuah.
3And Jokshan, begat Sheba, and Dedan: And the sons of Dedan were Asshurim, and Letushim, and Leummim.
4Also the sons of Midian were Ephah, and Epher, and Hanoch, and Abidah, and Eldaah, all these were the sons of Keturah.
5And Abraham gave all his goods to Isaac.
6But unto the sons of the concubines, which Abraham had, Abraham gave gifts, and sent them away from Isaac his son (while he yet lived) Eastward to the East country.
7And this is the age of Abraham’s life, which he lived, an hundred seventy and five years.
8Then Abraham yielded the spirit, and died in a good age, an old man, and of great years, and was gathered to his people.
9And his sons Isaac and Ishmael buried him in the cave of Machpelah, in the field of Ephron son of Zohar the Hittite, before Mamre,
10Which field Abraham bought of the Hittites, where Abraham was buried with Sarah his wife.
11And after the death of Abraham God blessed Isaac his son, and Isaac dwelt by Beer Lahai Roi.
12Now these are the generations of Ishmael Abraham’s son, whom Hagar the Egyptian Sarah’s handmaid bare unto Abraham.
13And these are the names of the sons of Ishmael, name by name, according to their kindreds: the eldest son of Ishmael was Nebajoth then Kedar, and Adbeel, and Mibsam,
14And Mishma, and Dumah, and Massa,
15Hadar, and Tema, Jetur, Naphish, and Kedemah.
16These are the sons of Ishmael, and these are their names, by their towns and by their castles: to wit, twelve princes of their nations.
17(And these are the years of the life of Ishmael, an hundred thirty and seven years, and he yielded up the spirit, and died, and was gathered unto his people.)
18And they dwelt from Havilah unto Shur, that is towards Egypt, as thou goest to Asshur. Ishmael dwelt in the presence of all his brethren.
19Likewise these are the generations of Isaac Abraham’s son. Abraham begat Isaac.
20And Isaac was forty years old, when he took Rebekah to wife, the daughter of Bethuel the Aramite of Padan Aram, and sister to Laban the Aramite.
21And Isaac prayed unto the Lord for his wife, because she was barren: and the Lord was entreated of him, and Rebekah his wife conceived.
22But the children strove together within her: therefore she said, Seeing it is so, why am I thus? wherefore she went to ask the Lord.
23And the Lord said to her, Two nations are in thy womb, and two manner of people shall be divided out of thy bowels, and the one people shall be mightier than the other, and the elder shall serve the younger.
24Therefore when her time of deliverance was fulfilled, behold, twins were in her womb.
25So he that came out first was red, and he was all over as rough as a garment, and they called his name Esau.
26And afterward came his brother out, and his hand held Esau by the heel, therefore his name was called Jacob. Now Isaac was threescore years old when Rebekah bare them.
27And the boys grew, and Esau was a cunning hunter, and lived in the fields: but Jacob was a plain man, and dwelt in tents.
28And Isaac loved Esau, for venison was his meat, but Rebekah loved Jacob.
29Now Jacob sod pottage, and Esau came from the field and was weary.
30Then Esau said to Jacob, Let me eat, I pray thee, of that pottage so red, for I am weary. Therefore was his name called Edom.
31And Jacob said, Sell me even now thy birthright.
32And Esau said, Lo, I am almost dead, what is then this birthright to me?
33Jacob then said, Swear to me even now. And he swear to him, and sold his birthright unto Jacob.
34Then Jacob gave Esau bread and pottage of lentils: and he did eat and drink, and rose up, and went his way: So Esau contemned his birthright.
