* Then again Abraham took a wife , and her name was Keturah . * And she bare him Zimran , and Jokshan , and Medan , and Midian , and Ishbak , and Shuah . * And Jokshan begat Sheba , and Dedan . And the sons of Dedan were Asshurim , and Letushim , and Leummim L @#ummiym #. * And the sons of Midian ; Ephah , and Epher , and Hanoch , and Abida , and Eldaah #Elda #ah #. All these were the children of Keturah . * And Abraham gave all that he had unto Isaac . * But 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 , unto the east country . * And these are the days of the years of Abrahams life which he lived , an hundred #H8141threescore and fifteen #H8141 shaneh # years . * 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 . * And his sons Isaac and Ishmael Yishma #e #l # buried him in the cave of Machpelah , in the field of Ephron the son of Zohar the Hittite , which is before Mamre * The field which Abraham purchased of the sons of Heth : there was Abraham buried , and Sarah his wife . * * And it came to pass after the death of Abraham , that God blessed his son Isaac ; and Isaac dwelt by the well Lahairoi B @#er la-Chay Ro #iy #. * Now these are the generations of Ishmael Yishma #e #l #, Abrahams son , whom Hagar the Egyptian , Sarahs handmaid , bare unto Abraham : * And these are the names of the sons of Ishmael Yishma #e #l #, by their names , according to their generations : the firstborn of Ishmael Yishma #e #l #, Nebajoth ; and Kedar , and Adbeel #Adb @#el #, and Mibsam , * And Mishma , and Dumah , and Massa , * Hadar , and Tema , Jetur , Naphish , and Kedemah : * These are the sons of Ishmael Yishma #e #l #, and these are their names , by their towns , and by their castles ; twelve sh @nayim # princes according to their nations . * And these are the years of the life of Ishmael Yishma #e #l #, an hundred #H8141and thirty sh @lowshiym # and seven years : and he gave up the ghost and died ; and was gathered unto his people . * And they dwelt from Havilah unto Shur , that is before Egypt , as thou goest toward Assyria : and he died in the presence of all his brethren . * And these are the generations of Isaac , Abrahams son : Abraham begat Isaac : * And Isaac was forty #arba #iym # years old when he took Rebekah to wife , the daughter of Bethuel the Syrian of Padanaram , the sister to Laban the Syrian . * And Isaac intreated the LORD for his wife , because she was barren : and the LORD was intreated of him , and Rebekah his wife conceived . * And the children struggled together within her ; and she said , If it be so , why am I thus ? And she went to enquire of the LORD . * And the LORD said unto her , Two nations are in thy womb , and two manner of people shall be separated from thy bowels me #ah #; and the one people shall be stronger than the other people ; and the elder shall serve the younger tsa #iyr #. * And when her days to be delivered were fulfilled , behold , there were twins in her womb . * And the first came out red , all over like an hairy garment ; and they called his name Esau . * And after that came # his brother out , and his hand took hold on Esaus heel ; and his name was called Jacob Ya #aqob #: and Isaac was threescore years old when she bare them . * And the boys grew : and Esau was a cunning hunter , a man of the field ; and Jacob was a plain man , dwelling in tents . * And Isaac loved Esau , because he did eat of his venison : but Rebekah loved Jacob Ya #aqob #. * And Jacob sod pottage : and Esau came from the field , and he was faint : * And Esau said to Jacob Ya #aqob #, Feed me , I pray thee , with that same red pottage ; for I am faint : therefore was his name called Edom . * And Jacob said , Sell me this day thy birthright . * And Esau said , Behold , I am at the point to die : and what profit shall this birthright do to me ? * And Jacob said , Swear to me this day ; and he sware unto him : and he sold his birthright unto Jacob Ya #aqob #. * Then Jacob gave Esau bread and pottage of lentiles ; and he did eat and drink , and rose up , and went his way : thus Esau despised his birthright .
