1 -Now Abraham had taken another wife, named Keturah,
2 -and she bore him Zimran, Jokshan, Medan, Midian, Ishbak, and Shuah.
3 -Jokshan was the father of Sheba and Dedan. And the sons of Dedan were the Asshurites, the Letushites, and the Leummites.
4 -The sons of Midian were Ephah, Epher, Hanoch, Abida, and Eldaah. All these were descendants of Keturah.
5 -Abraham left everything he owned to Isaac.
6 -But while he was still alive, Abraham gave gifts to the sons of his concubines and sent them away from his son Isaac to the land of the east.
7 -Abraham lived a total of 175 years.
8 -And at a ripe old age he breathed his last and died, old and contented, and was gathered to his people.
9 -His sons Isaac and Ishmael buried him in the cave of Machpelah near Mamre, in the field of Ephron son of Zohar the Hittite.
10 -This was the field that Abraham had bought from the Hittites. Abraham was buried there with his wife Sarah.
11 -After Abraham’s death, God blessed his son Isaac, who lived near Beer-lahai-roi.
12 -This is the account of Abraham’s son Ishmael, whom Hagar the Egyptian, Sarah’s maidservant, bore to Abraham.
13 -These are the names of the sons of Ishmael in the order of their birth: Nebaioth the firstborn of Ishmael, then Kedar, Adbeel, Mibsam,
14 -Mishma, Dumah, Massa,
15 -Hadad, Tema, Jetur, Naphish, and Kedemah.
16 -These were the sons of Ishmael, and these were their names by their villages and encampments—twelve princes of their tribes.
17 -Ishmael lived a total of 137 years. Then he breathed his last and died, and was gathered to his people.
18 -Ishmael’s descendants settled from Havilah to Shur, which is near the border of Egypt as you go toward Asshur. And they lived in hostility toward all their brothers.
19 -This is the account of Abraham’s son Isaac. Abraham became the father of Isaac,
20 -and Isaac was forty years old when he married Rebekah, the daughter of Bethuel the Aramean from Paddan-aram and the sister of Laban the Aramean.
21 -Later, Isaac prayed to the LORD on behalf of his wife, because she was barren. And the LORD heard his prayer, and his wife Rebekah conceived.
22 -But the children inside her struggled with each other, and she said, “Why is this happening to me?” So Rebekah went to inquire of the LORD,
23 -and He declared to her: “Two nations are in your womb, and two peoples from within you will be separated; one people will be stronger than the other, and the older will serve the younger.”
24 -When her time came to give birth, there were indeed twins in her womb.
25 -The first one came out red, covered with hair like a fur coat; so they named him Esau.
26 -After this, his brother came out grasping Esau’s heel; so he was named Jacob. And Isaac was sixty years old when the twins were born.
27 -When the boys grew up, Esau became a skillful hunter, a man of the field, while Jacob was a quiet man who stayed at home.
28 -Because Isaac had a taste for wild game, he loved Esau; but Rebekah loved Jacob.
29 -One day, while Jacob was cooking some stew, Esau came in from the field and was famished.
30 -He said to Jacob, “Let me eat some of that red stew, for I am famished.” (That is why he was also called Edom.)
31 -“First sell me your birthright,” Jacob replied.
32 -“Look,” said Esau, “I am about to die, so what good is a birthright to me?”
33 -“Swear to me first,” Jacob said. So Esau swore to Jacob and sold him the birthright.
34 -Then Jacob gave some bread and lentil stew to Esau, who ate and drank and then got up and went away. Thus Esau despised his birthright.
