Jenèz 25
1 Abraram te pran yon lòt fanm yo te rele Ketoura.
In truth, Abraham took another wife, named Keturah.
2 Ketoura fè sis pitit pou li: Zimran, Joksan, Medan, Madyan, Jisbak ak Swak.
And she bore to him Zimran, and Jokshan, and Medan, and Midian, and Ishbak, and Shuah.
3 Joksan te papa Seba ak Dedan. Men pitit Dedan yo: Se te moun Achou yo, moun Letouch yo ak moun Lemou yo.
Likewise, Jokshan conceived Sheba and Dedan. The sons of Dedan were Asshurim, and Letushim, and Leummim.
4 Men pitit Madyan yo: Se te Efa, Efe, Enòk, Abida ak Elda. Se tout moun sa yo ki te pitit ak pitit pitit Ketoura.
And truly, from Midian was born Ephah, and Epher, and Hanoch, and Abida, and Eldaah. All these were the sons of Keturah.
5 Abraram kite tout byen l' yo pou Izarak.
And Abraham gave everything that he possessed to Isaac.
6 Men anvan l' mouri, li te bay pitit li te fè ak lòt fanm kay yo kèk kado. Apre sa, li fè yo pati, li voye yo byen lwen Izarak, pitit gason l' lan, li voye yo nan peyi kote solèy leve a.
But to the sons of the concubines he gave generous gifts, and he separated them from his son Isaac, while he still lived, toward the eastern region.
7 Abraram te viv sanswasannkenzan (175 an).
Now the days of Abraham’s life were one hundred and seventy-five years.
8 Abraram te fin granmoun, li te wè kont jou l', li te pase vye jou l' yo san pwoblèm. Apre sa li mouri, li al jwenn moun li yo ki te mouri deja.
And declining, he died in a good old age, and at an advanced stage of life, and full of days. And he was gathered to his people.
9 Izarak ak Izmayèl, pitit li yo, antere l' nan twou wòch Makpela a, nan jaden Efwon, pitit Zoka, yon moun Et, anfas Manmre.
And his sons Isaac and Ishmael buried him in the double cave, which was situated in the field of Ephron, of the son of Zohar the Hittite, across from the region of Mamre,
10 Se jaden sa a Abraram te achte nan men mesye Et yo. Se la yo te antere Abraram ak Sara, madanm li.
which he had bought from the sons of Heth. There he was buried, with his wife Sarah.
11 Apre Abraram mouri, Bondye te beni Izarak, pitit gason l' lan, ki te rete toupre Pi moun vivan ki wè m' lan.
And after his passing, God blessed his son Isaac, who lived near the well named ‘of the One who lives and who sees.’
12 Men pitit pitit Izmayèl, pitit Abraram lan. Se Aga, moun peyi Lejip, sèvant Sara, ki te fè pitit sa a pou Abraram.
These are the generations of Ishmael, the son of Abraham, whom Hagar the Egyptian, Sarah’s servant, bore to him.
13 Men non pitit Izmayèl yo. N'ap konmanse ak pi gran an pou rive sou pi piti a. Nebajòt te premye pitit Izmayèl. Apre li vini Keda, Adbeyèl, Mibsam,
And these are the names of his sons according to their language and generations. The firstborn of Ishmael was Nebaioth, then Kedar, and Adbeel, and Mibsam,
14 Michma, Douma, Masa,
likewise Mishma, and Dumah, and Massa,
15 Adad, Tema, Jetou, Nafich ak Kedma.
Hadad, and Tema, and Jetur, and Naphish, and Kedemah.
16 Se yo ki te pitit Izmayèl. Se konsa yo te rele yo ansanm ak tout katye kote yo te rete ak kote yo te moute tant yo. Sa te fè douz chèf, chak ak nasyon pa yo.
These are the sons of Ishmael. And these are their names throughout their fortresses and towns: the twelve princes of their tribes.
17 Izmayèl te gen santrannsetan (137 an) lè l' mouri. Y al antere l' menm kote ak moun li yo ki te mouri deja.
And the years of the life of Ishmael that passed were one hundred and thirty-seven. And declining, he died and was placed with his people.
18 Pitit pitit Izmayèl yo te rete sou teritwa ki konmanse depi Avila rive jouk Chou, anfas peyi Lejip sou bò solèy leve a, anvan ou pran peyi Lasiri. Yo t'ap viv pou kont yo. Yo pa t' mele ak rès fanmi yo.
Now he had lived from Havilah as far as Shur, which overlooks Egypt as it approaches the Assyrians. He passed away in the sight of all his brothers.
19 Men istwa Izarak, pitit Abraram.
Likewise, these are the generations of Isaac, the son of Abraham. Abraham conceived Isaac,
20 Abraram te papa Izarak. Izarak te gen karantan lè li marye ak Rebeka ki te pitit fi Betwèl, moun lavil Aram, ki te rete nan peyi Mezopotami an. Rebeka te sè Laban, moun lavil Aram.
who, when he was forty years old, took Rebekah, the sister of Laban, the daughter of Bethuel the Syrian from Mesopotamia, as a wife.
21 Madanm Izarak pa t' ka fè pitit. Izarak lapriyè Seyè a pou li, Seyè a reponn li. Rebeka, madanm li, vin ansent.
And Isaac beseeched the Lord on behalf of his wife, because she was barren. And he heard him, and he gave conception to Rebekah.
22 De ti pitit yo t'ap plede goumen nan vant li. Rebeka di: -Si se konsa sa ye, mwen pa konprann anyen? li al lapriyè Seyè a.
But the little ones struggled in her womb. So she said, “If it was to be so with me, what need was there to conceive?” And she went to consult the Lord.
23 Seyè a reponn li: -Ou gen de nasyon nan vant ou. W'ap fè de pèp: chak ap pran bò pa yo. Yonn p'ap vle wè lòt. Yonn ap pi gwonèg pase lòt. Pi gran an pral sou zòd pi piti a.
And responding, he said, “Two nations are in your womb, and two peoples will be divided out of your womb, and one people will overcome the other people, and the elder will serve the younger.”
24 Lè jou pou Rebeka akouche a rive, li fè de marasa.
Now the time had arrived to give birth, and behold, twins were discovered in her womb.
25 Premye ki te fèt la te tout wouj. Li te kouvri ak pwal sou tout kò l'. Se poutèt sa yo te rele l' Ezaou.
He who departed first was red, and entirely hairy like a pelt; and his name was called Esau. At once the other departed and he held his brother’s foot in his hand; and because of this he was called Jacob.
26 Lè dezyèm lan te fèt, men li te kenbe Ezaou nan talon pye l': se poutèt sa yo rele l' Jakòb. Izarak te gen swasantan sou tèt li lè yo te fèt.
Isaac was sixty years old when the little ones were born to him.
27 Timoun yo grandi. Ezaou te vin yon bon chasè, li te toujou nan bwa. Men Jakòb te yon nonm byen dousman, li te renmen rete lakay.
And as adults, Esau became a knowledgeable hunter and a man of agriculture, but Jacob, a simple man, dwelt in tents.
28 Izarak te pito Ezaou, paske li te renmen manje vyann jibye, men Rebeka te pito Jakòb.
Isaac was fond of Esau, because he was fed from his hunting; and Rebekah loved Jacob.
29 Yon jou, Jakòb te fin kwit yon bon bouyon, Ezaou antre sot nan jaden, li te bouke anpil.
Then Jacob boiled a small meal. Esau, when he had arrived weary from the field,
30 Li di Jakòb konsa: -M'ap mouri grangou. Tanpri, ban m' ti gout nan bouyon pwa wouj ou a. Se poutèt sa yo te bay Ezaou yon lòt ti non. Yo te rele l' Edon.
said to him, “Give me this red stew, for I am very tired.” For this reason, his name was called Edom.
31 Men Jakòb di l': -M'ap ba ou ti gout si ou vann mwen dwa ou kòm premye pitit.
Jacob said to him, “Sell me your right of the firstborn.”
32 Ezaou reponn: -Dakò. Mwen pral mouri. Kisa dwa kòm premye pitit la ap sèvi m'?
He answered, “Lo, I am dying, what will the right of the firstborn provide for me?”
33 Jakòb di li: -Fè m' sèman anvan. Ezaou fè sèman ba li, li vann li dwa l' kòm premye pitit.
Jacob said, “So then, swear to me.” Esau swore to him, and he sold his right of the firstborn.
34 Lèfini, Jakòb ba li pen ak ti gout nan bouyon pwa a. Ezaou manje, li bwè. Li leve, li pati. Konsa, Ezaou te konsidere dwa li kòm premye pitit pou anyen.
And so, taking bread and the food of lentils, he ate, and he drank, and he went away, giving little weight to having sold the right of the firstborn.
