25:1 ¶ Then again {3254} <8686> Abraham {85} took {3947} <8799> a wife, {802} and her name {8034} [was] Keturah. {6989}

25:2 And she bare {3205} <8799> him (853) Zimran, {2175} and Jokshan, {3370} and Medan, {4091} and Midian, {4080} and Ishbak, {3435} and Shuah. {7744}

25:3 And Jokshan {3370} begat {3205} <8804> (853) Sheba, {7614} and Dedan. {1719} And the sons {1121} of Dedan {1719} were (1961) Asshurim, {805} and Letushim, {3912} and Leummim. {3817}

25:4 And the sons {1121} of Midian; {4080} Ephah, {5891} and Epher, {6081} and Hanoch, {2585} and Abida, {28} and Eldaah. {420} All (3605) these (428) [were] the children {1121} of Keturah. {6989}

25:5 ¶ And Abraham {85} gave {5414} <8799> (853) all (3605) that (834) he had unto Isaac. {3327}

25:6 But unto the sons {1121} of the concubines, {6370} which (834) Abraham {85} had, Abraham {85} gave {5414} <8804> gifts, {4979} and sent them away {7971} <8762> from (4480) (5921) Isaac {3327} his son, {1121} while he yet (5750) lived, {2416} eastward, {6924} unto (413) the east {6924} country. {776}

25:7 And these (428) [are] the days {3117} of the years {8141} of Abraham's {85} life {2416} which (834) he lived, [2425] <8804> (2416) an hundred {3967} [8141] threescore and fifteen {7657} {8141} {2568} years. {8141}

25:8 Then Abraham {85} gave up the ghost, {1478} <8799> and died {4191} <8799> in a good {2896} old age, {7872} an old man, {2205} and full {7649} [of years]; and was gathered {622} <8735> to (413) his people. {5971}

25:9 And his sons {1121} Isaac {3327} and Ishmael {3458} buried {6912} <8799> him in (413) the cave {4631} of Machpelah, {4375} in (413) the field {7704} of Ephron {6085} the son {1121} of Zohar {6714} the Hittite, {2850} which (834) [is] before {6440} (5921) Mamre; {4471}

25:10 The field {7704} which (834) Abraham {85} purchased {7069} <8804> of (4480) (854) the sons {1121} of Heth: {2845} there (8033) was Abraham {85} buried, {6912} <8795> and Sarah {8283} his wife. {802}

25:11 ¶ And it came to pass (1961) after {310} the death {4194} of Abraham, {85} that God {430} blessed {1288} <8762> his son {1121} (853) Isaac; {3327} and Isaac {3327} dwelt {3427} <8799> by {5973} the well Lahairoi. {883}

25:12 ¶ Now these (428) [are] the generations {8435} of Ishmael, {3458} Abraham's {85} son, {1121} whom (834) Hagar {1904} the Egyptian, {4713} Sarah's {8283} handmaid, {8198} bare {3205} <8804> unto Abraham: {85}

25:13 And these (428) [are] the names {8034} of the sons {1121} of Ishmael, {3458} by their names, {8034} according to their generations: {8435} the firstborn {1060} of Ishmael, {3458} Nebajoth; {5032} and Kedar, {6938} and Adbeel, {110} and Mibsam, {4017}

25:14 And Mishma, {4927} and Dumah, {1746} and Massa, {4854}

25:15 Hadar, {2316} and Tema, {8485} Jetur, {3195} Naphish, {5305} and Kedemah: {6929}

25:16 These (428) [are] the sons {1121} of Ishmael, {3458} and these (428) [are] their names, {8034} by their towns, {2691} and by their castles; {2918} twelve {8147} {6240} princes {5387} according to their nations. {523}

25:17 And these (428) [are] the years {8141} of the life {2416} of Ishmael, {3458} an hundred {3967} [8141] and thirty {7970} [8141] and seven {7651} years: {8141} and he gave up the ghost {1478} <8799> and died; {4191} <8799> and was gathered {622} <8735> unto (413) his people. {5971}

25:18 And they dwelt {7931} <8799> from Havilah {2341} (4480) unto (5704) Shur, {7793} that (834) [is] before {6440} (5921) Egypt, {4714} as thou goest {935} <8800> toward Assyria: {804} [and] he died {5307} <8804> in (5921) the presence {6440} of all (3605) his brethren. {251}

25:19 ¶ And these (428) [are] the generations {8435} of Isaac, {3327} Abraham's {85} son: {1121} Abraham {85} begat {3205} <8689> (853) Isaac: {3327}

25:20 And Isaac {3327} was (1961) forty {705} years {8141} old {1121} when he took {3947} <8800> (853) Rebekah {7259} to wife, {802} the daughter {1323} of Bethuel {1328} the Syrian {761} of Padanaram, {6307} (4480) the sister {269} to Laban {3837} the Syrian. {761}

25:21 And Isaac {3327} intreated {6279} <8799> the LORD {3068} for {5227} his wife, {802} because (3588) she (1931) [was] barren: {6135} and the LORD {3068} was intreated {6279} <8735> of him, and Rebekah {7259} his wife {802} conceived. {2029} <8799>

25:22 And the children {1121} struggled together {7533} <8704> within (7130) her; [7130] and she said, {559} <8799> If (518) [it be] so, (3651) why (4100) [am] I (595) thus? {2088} And she went [3212] <8799> (1980) to enquire {1875} <8800> of (853) the LORD. {3068}

25:23 And the LORD {3068} said {559} <8799> unto her, Two {8147} nations {1471} [are] in thy womb, {990} and two (8147) manner [8147] of people {3816} shall be separated {6504} <8735> from thy bowels; {4578} (4480) and [the one] people {3816} shall be stronger {553} <8799> than [the other] people; {3816} (4480) and the elder {7227} shall serve {5647} <8799> the younger. {6810}

25:24 ¶ And when her days {3117} to be delivered {3205} <8800> were fulfilled, {4390} <8799> behold, (2009) [there were] twins {8380} in her womb. {990}

25:25 And the first {7223} came out {3318} <8799> red, {132} all over (3605) like an hairy {8181} garment; {155} and they called {7121} <8799> his name {8034} Esau. {6215}

25:26 And after [310] that (310) (3651) came {3318} <0> his brother {251} out, [3318] <8804> and his hand {3027} took hold {270} <8802> on Esau's {6215} heel; {6119} and his name {8034} was called {7121} <8799> Jacob: {3290} and Isaac {3327} [was] threescore {8346} years {8141} old {1121} when she bare {3205} <8800> them.

25:27 And the boys {5288} grew: {1431} <8799> and Esau {6215} was (1961) a cunning {3045} <8802> hunter, {6718} a man {376} of the field; {7704} and Jacob {3290} [was] a plain {8535} man, {376} dwelling {3427} <8802> in tents. {168}

25:28 And Isaac {3327} loved {157} <8799> (853) Esau, {6215} because (3588) he did eat {6310} of [his] venison: {6718} but Rebekah {7259} loved {157} <8802> (853) Jacob. {3290}

25:29 ¶ And Jacob {3290} sod {2102} <8686> pottage: {5138} and Esau {6215} came {935} <8799> from (4480) the field, {7704} and he (1931) [was] faint: {5889}

25:30 And Esau {6215} said {559} <8799> to (413) Jacob, {3290} Feed {3938} <8685> me, I pray thee, (4994) with {4480} that same [122] (2088) red {122} [pottage]; for (3588) I (595) [am] faint: {5889} therefore (5921) (3651) was his name {8034} called {7121} <8804> Edom. {123}

25:31 And Jacob {3290} said, {559} <8799> Sell {4376} <8798> me this day {3117} (853) thy birthright. {1062}

25:32 And Esau {6215} said, {559} <8799> Behold, (2009) I (595) [am] at the point {1980} <8802> to die: {4191} <8800> and what profit (4100) shall this (2088) birthright {1062} do to me?

25:33 And Jacob {3290} said, {559} <8799> Swear {7650} <8734> to me this day; {3117} and he sware {7650} <8735> unto him: and he sold {4376} <8799> (853) his birthright {1062} unto Jacob. {3290}

25:34 Then Jacob {3290} gave {5414} <8804> Esau {6215} bread {3899} and pottage {5138} of lentiles; {5742} and he did eat {398} <8799> and drink, {8354} <8799> and rose up, {6965} <8799> and went his way: [3212] <8799> (1980) thus Esau {6215} despised {959} <8799> (853) [his] birthright. {1062}
