< Genesis 25 >

1 Then again Abraham took a wife, and her name was Keturah.
Te phoeiah Abraham loh yuu koep a loh tih anih ming tah Keturah ni.
2 And she bore him Zimran, and Jokshan, and Medan, and Midian, and Ishbak, and Shuah.
Abraham ham Zimran neh Jokshan khaw, Medan khaw, Midian khaw, Ishbak khaw, Shuah khaw a sak pah.
3 And Jokshan begat Sheba, and Dedan. And the sons of Dedan were Asshurim, and Letushim, and Leummim.
Jokshan loh Sheba neh Dedan te a sak tih Dedan ca rhoek la Asshurim, Lethushim neh Leummim om.
4 And the sons of Midian; Ephah, and Epher, and Hanoch, and Abida, and Eldaah. All these were the children of Keturah.
Midian ca rhoek la Ephah khaw, Epher khaw, Hanok khaw, Abidah neh Eldaah khaw om tih amih boeih he Keturah ko rhoek ni.
5 And Abraham gave all that he had to Isaac.
Abraham loh amah kah a cungkuem te Isaak taengah a paek.
6 But to 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.
Tedae Abraham yula rhoek kah a ca rhoek te Abraham loh amah a hing vaengah kutdoe a paek tih a capa Isaak taeng lamkah khothoeng ben khothoeng kho la vik a tueih.
7 And these are the days of the years of Abraham’s life which he lived, an hundred and seventy and five years.
Te dongah Abraham kah a hingnah kum tue he kum ya neh kum sawmrhih kum nga hing.
8 Then Abraham gave up the ghost, and died in a good old age, an old man, and full of years; and was gathered to his people.
Tedae Abraham he pal tih a duek vaengah khaw patong sampok then neh ngaikhuek la a pilnam taengah khoem uh.
9 And his sons Isaac and Ishmael buried him in the cave of Machpelah, in the field of Ephron the son of Zohar the Hittite, which is before Mamre;
Te vaengah anih te a ca rhoi Isaak neh Ishmael loh Mamre kaep Khitti hoel Zohar capa Ephron lo kah Makpelah lungko ah a up rhoi.
10 The field which Abraham purchased of the sons of Heth: there was Abraham buried, and Sarah his wife.
Tekah lo te Abraham loh Kheth ca rhoek taeng lamkah a lai dongah, Abraham loh a yuu Sarah te pahoi khaw a up.
11 And it came to pass after the death of Abraham, that God blessed his son Isaac; and Isaac dwelt by the well Lahairoi.
Tedae Abraham a dueknah hnutah aka om tah, a capa Isaak te Pathen loh yoethen a paek. Te dongah Isaak loh Beerlahairoi taengah kho a sak.
12 Now these are the generations of Ishmael, Abraham’s son, whom Hagar the Egyptian, Sarah’s handmaid, bore to Abraham:
Te phoeiah hekah he Abraham capa Ishmael, Abraham taengah Sarah loh a paek a sal Egypt nu Hagar loh a cun kah rhuirhong ni.
13 And these are the names of the sons of Ishmael, by their names, according to their generations: the firstborn of Ishmael, Nebajoth; and Kedar, and Adbeel, and Mibsam,
He tah amamih ming bangla Ishmael ca rhoek kah a ming ni. Amih kah rhuirhong dongah Ishmael kah caming tah Nebaioth tih Kedar neh Adbeel, Mibsam,
14 And Mishma, and Dumah, and Massa,
Mishma, Dumah, Massa,
15 Hadar, and Tema, Jetur, Naphish, and Kedemah:
Hadad, Tema, Jetur, Naphish, Kedemah om.
16 These are the sons of Ishmael, and these are their names, by their towns, and by their castles; twelve princes according to their nations.
Amih Ishmael ca rhoek he khaw amah ming, amah vongtung, amah lumim neh amah namtu kah khoboei he hlai nit omuh.
17 And these are the years of the life of Ishmael, an hundred and thirty and seven years: and he gave up the ghost and died; and was gathered to his people.
Tedae Ishmael kah a hingnah kum he kum ya neh kum sawmthum kum rhih a lo vaengah pal tih a duek dongah a pilnam taengla khoem uh.
18 And they dwelt from Havilah to Shur, that is before Egypt, as thou goest toward Assyria: and he died in the presence of all his brethren.
Amih khaw Havilah lamkah Assyria la aka pawk Egypt khorhi Shur duela kho a sak uh tih a manuca rhoek boeih kah imdan ah pakuep uh.
19 And these are the generations of Isaac, Abraham’s son: Abraham begat Isaac:
Te phoeiah hekah he Abraham capa Isaak kah a rhuirhong ni. Abraham loh Isaak a sak tih,
20 And Isaac was forty years old when he took Rebekah for a wife, the daughter of Bethuel the Syrian of Padanaram, the sister to Laban the Syrian.
Isaak kum sawmli a lo ca vaengah a yuu te Paddanaram kah Arammi Bethuel canu, Arammi Laban ngannu, Rebekah te a loh.
21 And Isaac entreated the LORD for his wife, because she was barren: and the LORD was entreated of him, and Rebekah his wife conceived.
Tedae anih te a yaa dongah Isaak loh BOEIPA taengah a yuu yueng la thangthui. Te dongah anih te BOEIPA loh a rhoi tih a yuu Rebekah pahoi pumrhih.
22 And the children struggled together within her; and she said, If it is so, why am I thus? And she went to enquire of the LORD.
Tedae a ko khuikah camoe rhoi te phop uh rhoi. Te dongah, “Balae tih hetla ka om mai,” a ti. Te dongah BOEIPA te dawt ham cet.
23 And the LORD said to her, Two nations are in thy womb, and two manner of people shall be born of thee; and the one people shall be stronger than the other people; and the elder shall serve the younger.
Te dongah BOEIPA loh anih taengah, “Nang bung khuiah namtu neh namtu om rhoi tih na ko lamkah namtu te panit la paek uh rhoi ni. Te vaengah namtu pakhat te namtu pakhat lakah te tlung vetih a ham loh a noe taengah thotat ni,” a ti nah.
24 And when her days to be delivered were fulfilled, behold, there were twins in her womb.
Tedae a tue a tuemtuen vaengah a bung ah caphae la tarha a cun.
25 And the first was born red, all over like an hairy garment; and they called his name Esau.
Te vaengah aka thoeng lamhma te a pum boeih lingphung tih a mul khaw himbai bangla a om dongah anih ming te Esau a sui.
26 And after that his brother was born, and his hand took hold on Esau’s heel; and his name was called Jacob: and Isaac was sixty years old when she bore them.
A hnukah a mana om tih a kut neh Esau kah khodil te a tuuk. Te dongah a ming te Jakob a sui. Amih rhoi a sak vaengah Isaak khaw kum sawmrhuk lo ca coeng.
27 And the boys grew: and Esau was a skilful hunter, a man of the field; and Jacob was a plain man, dwelling in tents.
Tedae camoe rhoi te a pantai vaengah Esau te pongcet hlang, sakap thai la hlang coeng tih Jakob he dap ah duem aka om hlang la coeng.
28 And Isaac loved Esau, because he ate of his venison: but Rebekah loved Jacob.
Te vaengah Esau kah sakah te a ka dongah a tui pah dongah Isaak loh a lungnah dae Rebekah long tah Jakob a lungnah.
29 And Jacob boiled pottage: and Esau came from the field, and he was faint:
Tedae Jakob loh andam a thong vaengah Esau buhmueh rhathih la pong lamkah ha pawk.
30 And Esau said to Jacob, Feed me, I pray thee, with that same red pottage; for I am faint: therefore was his name called Edom.
Te dongah Esau loh Jakob la, “Kai he bumueh rhathih la ka om dongah tekah a thim a thim te kai n'cah mai,” a ti nah. Te dongah anih ming te Edom a sui.
31 And Jacob said, Sell to me this day thy birthright.
Tedae Jakob loh, “Tihnin ah nang kah caminghamsum te kai taengah han yoi,” a ti nah.
32 And Esau said, Behold, I am at the point to die: and what profit shall this birthright bring to me?
Te dongah Esau loh, “Hekah caminghamsum khaw kai ham te balam nim. Kai duek ham ka cet coeng he,” a ti nah.
33 And Jacob said, Swear to me this day; and he swore to him: and he sold his birthright to Jacob.
Tedae Jakob loh, “Tihnin ah kai ham toemngam laeh,” a ti nah vaengah a toemngam tih a caminghamsum te Jakob taengla a yoih.
34 Then Jacob gave Esau bread and pottage of lentiles; and he ate and drank, and rose, and went his way: thus Esau despised his birthright.
Te daengah Jakob loh buh neh rhacik andam te Esau a paek. Tedae a caak a ok phoeiah thoo tih vik cet. Te dongah Esau loh caminghamsum te a sawtsit coeng.
