Mga Iba pang Lahi ni Abraham(A)
25 Muling nag-asawa si Abraham at ang pangalan ng babae ay Ketura. 2 Ang mga anak niya rito ay sina Zimran, Jocsan, Medan, Midian, Isbak at Suah. 3 Si Jocsan ang ama nina Seba at Dedan. Kay Dedan nagmula ang mga Asurim, Letusim at Leumim. 4 Ang mga anak naman ni Midian ay sina Efa, Efer, Enoc, Abida at Eldaa. Lahat sila'y buhat kay Ketura.
5 Kay Isaac ipinamana ni Abraham ang lahat niyang ari-arian. 6 Ngunit bago siya namatay, pinagbibigyan na niya ng regalo ang mga anak niya sa ibang asawa, at pinapunta sa lupain sa dakong silangan para mapalayo kay Isaac.
Namatay si Abraham
7 Si Abraham ay nabuhay nang 175 taon. 8 Matandang-matanda na siya nang mamatay. 9 At inilibing siya nina Isaac at Ismael sa yungib ng Macpela sa silangan ng Mamre, sa parang na dating kay Efron, anak ni Zohar na Heteo. 10 Ang(B) lugar na iyon ang binili ni Abraham sa mga Heteo at doon sila nalibing ni Sara. 11 Pagkamatay ni Abraham, pinagpala ng Diyos si Isaac. Doon siya tumira sa Beer-lahai-roi.
Ang Lahi ni Ismael(C)
12 Ito naman ang lahi ni Ismael na anak ni Abraham kay Hagar, ang taga-Egiptong alipin ni Sara. 13 Si Nebayot ang panganay, sumunod sina Kedar, Abdeel at Mibsam. 14 Sumunod sina Misma, Duma at Massa; 15 pagkatapos ay sina Hadad, Tema, Jetur, Nafis at Kedema. 16 Sila ang labindalawang anak ni Ismael na naging pinuno ng kani-kanilang lipi. Isinunod sa kanilang mga pangalan ang mga bayan at pinagkampuhan ng kani-kanilang mga lipi. 17 Namatay si Ismael sa gulang na 137 taon, at siya'y inilibing. 18 Ang lahi ni Ismael ay tumira sa lupain sa pagitan ng Havila at Shur, sa daang patungo sa Asiria sa silangan ng Egipto. Nakabukod sila sa ibang mga lipi ni Abraham.
Ipinanganak sina Esau at Jacob
19 Ito naman ang kasaysayan ni Isaac na anak ni Abraham. 20 Apatnapung taon na si Isaac nang mapangasawa niya si Rebeca, anak na dalaga ni Bethuel, isang Arameong taga-Mesopotamia. Si Rebeca'y kapatid ni Laban, isa ring Arameo. 21 Hindi magkaanak si Rebeca, kaya't nanalangin kay Yahweh si Isaac. Dininig naman siya at si Rebeca'y naglihi. 22 Kambal ang kanyang dinadala at nasa tiyan pa'y nagtutulakan na ang dalawa. Kaya't nasabi ng ina, “Kung ngayon pa'y ganito na ang nangyayari sa akin, bakit pa ako mabubuhay?” Kaya't siya'y nagtanong kay Yahweh. 23 Ganito(D) naman ang sagot ni Yahweh:
“Dalawang sanggol ang dala mo sa loob ng iyong tiyan,
larawan ng dalawang bansa na magiging magkalaban;
magiging higit na malakas ang mas bata kaysa sa nauna,
kaya maglilingkod ang mas matanda sa bata niyang kapatid.”
24 Dumating ang panahon at nanganak nga siya ng kambal. 25 Mamula-mula ang kutis at mabalahibo ang katawan ng panganay, kaya't Esau[a] ang ipinangalan dito. 26 Nang lumabas ang pangalawa, nakahawak ito sa sakong ng kanyang kakambal, kaya Jacob[b] naman ang itinawag sa kanya. Animnapung taon si Isaac noon.
Ipinagbili ni Esau ang Kanyang Karapatan
27 Lumaki ang mga bata. Naging mahusay na mangangaso si Esau at sa kaparangan na halos tumitira. Si Jacob naman ay tahimik at lagi sa bahay. 28 Higit ang pagtingin ni Isaac kay Esau, palibhasa'y kinawiwilihan niyang kainin ang mga nahuhuli nito sa pangangaso, samantalang si Jacob naman ang mas mahal ni Rebeca.
29 Minsan, si Jacob ay nagluluto ng sinabawang pulang patani; siya namang pagdating ni Esau mula sa pangangaso. 30 Sinabi niya, “Gutom na gutom na ako, bigyan mo naman ako niyang mapulang niluluto mo.” At dahil dito'y tinawag siyang Edom.[c]
31 Sumagot si Jacob, “Ibigay mo muna sa akin ang iyong karapatan bilang panganay.”
32 “Payag na ako,” sabi ni Esau, “aanhin ko pa ang pagiging panganay kung mamamatay naman ako sa gutom?”
33 “Kung(E) gayon,” sabi ni Jacob, “sumumpa ka muna.” Sumumpa nga si Esau, at ibinigay kay Jacob ang karapatan ng pagiging panganay. 34 Ibinigay naman ni Jacob kay Esau ang niluto niyang gulay at binigyan pa ito ng tinapay. Matapos kumai't uminom, umalis na agad si Esau. Iyon lamang ang halaga sa kanya ng kanyang karapatan bilang panganay.

Genesis 25
King James Version
25 Then again Abraham took a wife, and her name was Keturah.
2 And she bare him Zimran, and Jokshan, and Medan, and Midian, and Ishbak, and Shuah.
3 And Jokshan begat Sheba, and Dedan. And the sons of Dedan were Asshurim, and Letushim, and Leummim.
4 And the sons of Midian; Ephah, and Epher, and Hanoch, and Abidah, and Eldaah. All these were the children of Keturah.
5 And Abraham gave all that he had unto Isaac.
6 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.
7 And these are the days of the years of Abraham's life which he lived, an hundred threescore and fifteen years.
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.
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;
10 The field which Abraham purchased of the sons of Heth: there was Abraham buried, and Sarah his wife.
11 And it came to pass after the death of Abraham, that God blessed his son Isaac; and Isaac dwelt by the well Lahairoi.
12 Now these are the generations of Ishmael, Abraham's son, whom Hagar the Egyptian, Sarah's handmaid, bare unto Abraham:
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,
14 And Mishma, and Dumah, and Massa,
15 Hadar, and Tema, Jetur, Naphish, and Kedemah:
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.
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 unto his people.
18 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.
19 And these are the generations of Isaac, Abraham's son: Abraham begat Isaac:
20 And Isaac was forty years old when he took Rebekah to wife, the daughter of Bethuel the Syrian of Padanaram, the sister to Laban the Syrian.
21 And Isaac intreated the Lord for his wife, because she was barren: and the Lord was intreated of him, and Rebekah his wife conceived.
22 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.
23 And the Lord said unto her, Two nations are in thy womb, and two manner of people shall be separated from thy bowels; and the one people shall be stronger than the other people; and the elder shall serve the younger.
24 And when her days to be delivered were fulfilled, behold, there were twins in her womb.
25 And the first came out red, all over like an hairy garment; and they called his name Esau.
26 And after that came his brother out, and his hand took hold on Esau's heel; and his name was called Jacob: and Isaac was threescore years old when she bare them.
27 And the boys grew: and Esau was a cunning hunter, a man of the field; and Jacob was a plain man, dwelling in tents.
28 And Isaac loved Esau, because he did eat of his venison: but Rebekah loved Jacob.
29 And Jacob sod pottage: and Esau came from the field, and he was faint:
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.
31 And Jacob said, Sell me this day thy birthright.
32 And Esau said, Behold, I am at the point to die: and what profit shall this birthright do to me?
33 And Jacob said, Swear to me this day; and he sware unto him: and he sold his birthright unto Jacob.
34 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.
