¹Then Abraham took a wife again, and her name was Keturah. ²And she bore him Zimran and Jokshan and Medan and Midian and Ishbak and Shuah. ³And Jokshan begot Sheba and Dedan, and the sons of Dedan became the Ashshurim and the Letushim and Leummim. ⁴And the sons of Midian were Ephah and Epher and Hanoch and Abida and Eldaah. All these were the sons of Keturah. ⁵But Abraham gave everything he had to Isaac. ⁶Nevertheless, to the sons of Abraham's concubines Abraham gave presents, and he sent them away from Isaac his son, while he was still alive, eastwards, to the land of the east. ⁷And these were the days of the years of the life of Abraham which he lived: one hundred and seventy-five years. ⁸And Abraham expired and died at a good old age, old and satisfied, then he was gathered to his people. ⁹And Isaac and Ishmael his sons buried him in the cave at Machpelah, in the field of Ephron the son of Zohar the Hittite, which is before Mamre ¹⁰– the field which Abraham bought from the sons of Heth. There Abraham was buried, as was Sarah his wife. ¹¹And it came to pass after the death of Abraham that God blessed Isaac his son, and Isaac dwelt near Beer-Lahai-Roi. ¹²This is the lineage of Ishmael the son of Abraham, whom Hagar the Egyptian, Sarah's maidservant, bore to Abraham. ¹³Now these are the names of the sons of Ishmael, by their names, according to their genealogy: the firstborn of Ishmael was Nebaioth, then Kedar and Adbeel and Mibsam, ¹⁴and Mishma and Dumah and Massa, ¹⁵Hadad and Tema, Jetur, Naphish and Kedemah. ¹⁶These were the sons of Ishmael, and those were their names by their villages and by their castles – twelve princes of their nations. ¹⁷And these were the years of the life of Ishmael: one hundred and thirty-seven years, and he expired and died, and he was gathered to his people. ¹⁸And they dwelt from Havilah to Shur, which is alongside Egypt as you go to Assyria, and he fell alongside all his brothers. ¹⁹Now this is the lineage of Isaac the son of Abraham. Abraham begot Isaac, ²⁰and Isaac was forty years old when he took Rebekah the daughter of Bethuel the Aramaean from Paddan-Aram, the sister of Laban the Aramaean, as his wife. ²¹And Isaac entreated the Lord on behalf of his wife, for she was barren, and the Lord was entreated by him, and Rebekah his wife conceived. ²²And the sons struggled together inside her, and she said, “If it is like this, why is it this way with me?” And she went to inquire of the Lord. ²³And the Lord said to her,

“There are two nations in your womb,

And two peoples will be separated from your belly.

And one people will prevail over the other people,

And the elder will serve the younger.”

²⁴And her days to when she should give birth were completed, and it was the case that there were twins in her womb. ²⁵And the first came out red-haired – all over him was a cloak of hair – and they called him Esau. ²⁶And after that his brother came out, and his hand was holding on to Esau's heel, and they called him Jacob. And Isaac was sixty years old when she bore them. ²⁷And the boys grew up, and Esau became a man skilled in hunting, a man of the open land, whereas Jacob was a straightforward man, living in tents. ²⁸Now Isaac loved Esau because of his appetite for game, but Rebekah loved Jacob. ²⁹On an occasion Jacob had made a broth, when along came Esau from the open land, and he was tired, ³⁰and Esau said to Jacob, “Please give me some of that very red broth to eat, for I am weary”, which is why he is called Edom. ³¹Whereupon Jacob said, “Sell me today your birthright.” ³²Then Esau said, “Look, I am going to die. So what good is a birthright to me?” ³³And Jacob said, “Swear to me this day.” And he swore to him, and he sold his birthright to Jacob. ³⁴Then Jacob gave Esau bread and lentil broth, and he ate and drank, and he got up and went off. So Esau despised his birthright.
