아브라함과 그두라

25 아브라함은 ‘그두라’ 라는 또 다른 여자와 결혼하였다.

그녀는 시므란, 욕산, 므단, 미디안, 이스박, 수아를 낳았으며

욕산은 스바와 드단을 낳았는데 드단의 자손들은 앗수르족, 르두시족, 르움미족이 되었다.

그리고 미디안의 아들은 에바, 에벨, 하녹, 아비다, 엘다아였다. 이상은 모두 그두라의 자손들이었다.

아브라함은 그의 모든 재산을 이삭에게 주었으며

자기 서자들에게도 재물을 주어 그들이 이삭을 떠나 동쪽 지방에 가서 살게 하였다.

아브라함의 죽음

7-8 아브라함이 늙고 나이 많아 175세에 숨 을 거두자

그의 아들 이삭과 이스마엘이 그를 헷 사람 소할의 아들 에브론의 밭에 있는 마므레 앞 막벨라 굴에 장사하였다.

10 그 땅은 아브라함이 헷 사람들에게서 산 밭인데 아브라함과 사라가 함께 거기에 묻혔다.

11 아브라함이 죽은 후에 하나님이 그의 아들 이삭을 축복하셨으며 이삭은 브엘 – 라해 – 로이 근처에서 살았다.

이스마엘의 자손들

12 사라의 여종 이집트인 하갈이 아브라함에게 낳은 아들 이스마엘의 자손은 이렇다:

13 이스마엘의 장남은 느바욧이며 그 다음은 게달, 앗브엘, 밉삼,

14 미스마, 두마, 맛사,

15 하닷, 데마, 여둘, 나비스, 게드마였다.

16 이 사람들은 12종족의 조상이 되었으며 이들의 이름은 그들의 마을과 부락 이름을 딴 것이었다.

17 이스마엘은 137세에 죽었으며

18 그의 자손들은 하윌라에서부터 술까지 앗시리아로 향하는 이집트 동쪽 지방에 흩어져 [a]아브라함의 다른 자손들에게 적대감을 가지고 살았다.

야곱과 에서

19 아브라함의 아들 이삭에 대한 이야기는 이렇다:

20 이삭은 40세에 [b]메소포타미아 출신의 아람 사람 브두엘의 딸이며 라반의 누이동생인 리브가와 결혼하였다.

21 리브가가 아이를 낳지 못하여 이삭이 여호와께 기도하자 여호와께서 그 기도를 들어주셨다. 그래서 리브가가 임신하게 되었는데

22 뱃속에서 아이들이 서로 싸우고 있었다. 리브가가 “어째서 나에게 이런 일이 있는가?” 하고 여호와께 물으러 가자

23 여호와께서 그녀에게 이렇게 말씀하셨다. “두 국민이 네 뱃속에 있구나. 두 민족이 네 태중에서 나누어질 것이니 한 민족이 다른 민족보다 강할 것이며 형이 동생을 섬기리라.”

24 해산하게 되었을 때 그녀의 태에는 쌍둥이가 있었다.

25 먼저 나온 아이는 마치 털옷을 입은 것처럼 전신이 불그스름한 털로 덮여 있어서 그 이름을 [c]‘에서’ 라 하였고

26 나중에 나온 그의 동생은 손으로 에서의 발꿈치를 꽉 잡았으므로 그 이름을 [d]‘야곱’ 이라고 하였다. 리브가가 그들을 낳았을 때 이삭은 60세였다.

27 그 아이들이 자라 에서는 능숙한 사냥꾼이 되어 들을 좋아하였고 야곱은 조용한 사람이어서 집에 머물러 있기를 좋아하였다.

28 이삭은 에서가 사냥해 온 고기를 좋아하였으므로 그를 사랑하였고 리브가는 야곱을 사랑하였다.

29 하루는 야곱이 죽을 쑤고 있었다. 그런데 에서가 사냥을 하고 돌아와서

30 야곱에게 “배가 고파 죽겠으니 그 붉은 죽을 좀 다오” 하였다 (그래서 에서에게는 붉다는 뜻을 지닌 ‘에돔’ 이라는 별명이 붙게 되었다).

31 이때 야곱이 “먼저 형의 장자권을 나에게 파시오” 하자

32 에서가 “내가 죽게 되었는데 이 장자권이 무슨 소용이 있겠느냐?” 하고 대답하였다.

33 그러나 야곱은 “[e]장자권을 다시 주장하지 않겠다고 나에게 맹세하시오” 하였다. 그래서 에서는 야곱에게 맹세하고 장자권을 그에게 팔았다.

34 야곱이 에서에게 빵과 팥죽을 주자 에서는 먹고 마신 후에 일어나 갔다. 그는 장자권을 가볍게 생각했던 것이다.

Abraham and Keturah(A)

25 Abraham again took a wife, and her name was (B)Keturah. And (C)she bore him Zimran, Jokshan, Medan, Midian, Ishbak, and Shuah. Jokshan begot Sheba and Dedan. And the sons of Dedan were Asshurim, Letushim, and Leummim. And the sons of Midian were Ephah, Epher, Hanoch, Abidah, and Eldaah. All these were the children of Keturah.

And (D)Abraham gave all that he had to Isaac. But Abraham gave gifts to the sons of the concubines which Abraham had; and while he was still living he (E)sent them eastward, away from Isaac his son, to (F)the country of the east.

Abraham’s Death and Burial

This is the sum of the years of Abraham’s life which he lived: one hundred and seventy-five years. Then Abraham breathed his last and (G)died in a good old age, an old man and full of years, and (H)was gathered to his people. And (I)his sons Isaac and Ishmael buried him in the cave of (J)Machpelah, which is before Mamre, in the field of Ephron the son of Zohar the Hittite, 10 (K)the field which Abraham purchased from the sons of Heth. (L)There Abraham was 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 at (M)Beer Lahai Roi.

The Families of Ishmael and Isaac(N)

12 Now this is the (O)genealogy of Ishmael, Abraham’s son, whom Hagar the Egyptian, Sarah’s maidservant, bore to Abraham. 13 And (P)these were the names of the sons of Ishmael, by their names, according to their generations: The firstborn of Ishmael, Nebajoth; then Kedar, Adbeel, Mibsam, 14 Mishma, Dumah, Massa, 15 [a]Hadar, Tema, Jetur, Naphish, and Kedemah. 16 These were the sons of Ishmael and these were their names, by their towns and their [b]settlements, (Q)twelve princes according to their nations. 17 These were the years of the life of Ishmael: one hundred and thirty-seven years; and (R)he breathed his last and died, and was gathered to his people. 18 (S)(They dwelt from Havilah as far as Shur, which is east of Egypt as you go toward Assyria.) He [c]died (T)in the presence of all his brethren.

19 This is the (U)genealogy of Isaac, Abraham’s son. (V)Abraham begot Isaac. 20 Isaac was forty years old when he took Rebekah as wife, (W)the daughter of Bethuel the Syrian of Padan Aram, (X)the sister of Laban the Syrian. 21 Now Isaac pleaded with the Lord for his wife, because she was barren; (Y)and the Lord granted his plea, (Z)and Rebekah his wife conceived. 22 But the children struggled together within her; and she said, “If all is well, why am I like this?” (AA)So she went to inquire of the Lord.

23 And the Lord said to her:

(AB)“Two nations are in your womb,
Two peoples shall be separated from your body;
One people shall be stronger than (AC)the other,
(AD)And the older shall serve the younger.”

24 So when her days were fulfilled for her to give birth, indeed there were twins in her womb. 25 And the first came out red. He was (AE)like a hairy garment all over; so they called his name [d]Esau. 26 Afterward his brother came out, and (AF)his hand took hold of Esau’s heel; so (AG)his name was called [e]Jacob. Isaac was sixty years old when she bore them.

27 So the boys grew. And Esau was (AH)a skillful hunter, a man of the field; but Jacob was (AI)a [f]mild man, (AJ)dwelling in tents. 28 And Isaac loved Esau because he (AK)ate of his game, (AL)but Rebekah loved Jacob.

Esau Sells His Birthright(AM)

29 Now Jacob cooked a stew; and Esau came in from the field, and he was weary. 30 And Esau said to Jacob, “Please feed me with that same red stew, for I am weary.” Therefore his name was called [g]Edom.

31 But Jacob said, “Sell me your birthright as of this day.”

32 And Esau said, “Look, I am about to die; so (AN)what is this birthright to me?”

33 Then Jacob said, [h]“Swear to me as of this day.”

So he swore to him, and (AO)sold his birthright to Jacob. 34 And Jacob gave Esau bread and stew of lentils; then (AP)he ate and drank, arose, and went his way. Thus Esau (AQ)despised his birthright.

Abraham's Death and His Descendants

25 Abraham took another wife, whose name was Keturah. (A)She bore him Zimran, Jokshan, Medan, Midian, Ishbak, and Shuah. Jokshan fathered Sheba and Dedan. The sons of Dedan were Asshurim, Letushim, and Leummim. The sons of Midian were Ephah, Epher, Hanoch, Abida, and Eldaah. All these were the children of Keturah. (B)Abraham gave all he had to Isaac. But to the sons of his concubines Abraham gave gifts, and while he was still living he (C)sent them away from his son Isaac, eastward (D)to the east country.

These are the days of the years of Abraham's life, 175 years. Abraham (E)breathed his last and (F)died in a good old age, an old man and full of years, and was gathered to his people. Isaac and Ishmael (G)his sons buried him in the cave of Machpelah, in the field of Ephron the son of Zohar the Hittite, east of Mamre, 10 the field (H)that Abraham purchased from the Hittites. (I)There Abraham was buried, with Sarah his wife. 11 After the death of Abraham, God blessed Isaac his son. And Isaac settled at (J)Beer-lahai-roi.

12 These are the generations of Ishmael, Abraham's son, (K)whom Hagar the Egyptian, Sarah's servant, bore to Abraham. 13 (L)These are the names of the sons of Ishmael, named in the order of their birth: (M)Nebaioth, the firstborn of Ishmael; and (N)Kedar, Adbeel, Mibsam, 14 Mishma, Dumah, Massa, 15 Hadad, (O)Tema, (P)Jetur, (Q)Naphish, and Kedemah. 16 These are the sons of Ishmael and these are their names, by their villages and by their encampments, (R)twelve princes according to their tribes. 17 (These are the years of the life of Ishmael: 137 years. He (S)breathed his last and died, and was gathered to his people.) 18 (T)They settled from Havilah to (U)Shur, which is opposite Egypt in the direction of Assyria. He settled[a] over against all his kinsmen.

The Birth of Esau and Jacob

19 These are the generations of Isaac, Abraham's son: (V)Abraham fathered Isaac, 20 and Isaac was forty years old when he took Rebekah, (W)the daughter of Bethuel the Aramean of (X)Paddan-aram, (Y)the sister of Laban the Aramean, to be his wife. 21 And Isaac prayed to the Lord for his wife, because she was barren. And (Z)the Lord granted his prayer, and Rebekah his wife conceived. 22 The children struggled together within her, and she said, “If it is thus, why is this happening to me?”[b] So she went (AA)to inquire of the Lord. 23 And the Lord said to her,

(AB)“Two nations are in your womb,
    and two peoples from within you[c] shall be divided;
(AC)the one shall be stronger than the other,
    (AD)the older shall serve the younger.”

24 When her days to give birth were completed, behold, there were twins in her womb. 25 The first came out red, (AE)all his body like a hairy cloak, so they called his name Esau. 26 Afterward his brother came out with (AF)his hand holding Esau's heel, so (AG)his name was called Jacob.[d] Isaac was sixty years old when she bore them.

27 When the boys grew up, Esau was (AH)a skillful hunter, a man of the field, while Jacob was a quiet man, (AI)dwelling in tents. 28 Isaac loved Esau because (AJ)he ate of his game, but Rebekah loved Jacob.

Esau Sells His Birthright

29 Once when Jacob was cooking stew, Esau came in from the field, and he was exhausted. 30 And Esau said to Jacob, “Let me eat some of that red stew, for I am exhausted!” (Therefore his name was called Edom.[e]) 31 Jacob said, “Sell me your birthright now.” 32 Esau said, “I am about to die; of what use is a birthright to me?” 33 Jacob said, “Swear to me now.” So he swore to him and (AK)sold his birthright to Jacob. 34 Then Jacob gave Esau bread and lentil stew, and he ate and drank and rose and went his way. Thus Esau despised his birthright.

The Death of Abraham(A)

25 Abraham had taken another wife, whose name was Keturah. She bore him Zimran,(B) Jokshan, Medan, Midian,(C) Ishbak and Shuah.(D) Jokshan was the father of Sheba(E) and Dedan;(F) the descendants of Dedan were the Ashurites, the Letushites and the Leummites. The sons of Midian were Ephah,(G) Epher, Hanok, Abida and Eldaah. All these were descendants of Keturah.

Abraham left everything he owned to Isaac.(H) But while he was still living, he gave gifts to the sons of his concubines(I) and sent them away from his son Isaac(J) to the land of the east.(K)

Abraham lived a hundred and seventy-five years.(L) Then Abraham breathed his last and died at a good old age,(M) an old man and full of years; and he was gathered to his people.(N) His sons Isaac and Ishmael buried him(O) in the cave of Machpelah(P) near Mamre,(Q) in the field of Ephron(R) son of Zohar the Hittite,(S) 10 the field Abraham had bought from the Hittites.[a](T) There Abraham was buried with his wife Sarah. 11 After Abraham’s death, God blessed his son Isaac,(U) who then lived near Beer Lahai Roi.(V)

Ishmael’s Sons(W)

12 This is the account(X) of the family line of Abraham’s son Ishmael, whom Sarah’s slave, Hagar(Y) the Egyptian, bore to Abraham.(Z)

13 These are the names of the sons of Ishmael, listed in the order of their birth: Nebaioth(AA) the firstborn of Ishmael, Kedar,(AB) Adbeel, Mibsam, 14 Mishma, Dumah,(AC) Massa, 15 Hadad, Tema,(AD) Jetur,(AE) Naphish and Kedemah. 16 These were the sons of Ishmael, and these are the names of the twelve tribal rulers(AF) according to their settlements and camps.(AG) 17 Ishmael lived a hundred and thirty-seven years. He breathed his last and died, and he was gathered to his people.(AH) 18 His descendants(AI) settled in the area from Havilah to Shur,(AJ) near the eastern border of Egypt, as you go toward Ashur. And they lived in hostility toward[b] all the tribes related to them.(AK)

Jacob and Esau

19 This is the account(AL) of the family line of Abraham’s son Isaac.

Abraham became the father of Isaac, 20 and Isaac was forty years old(AM) when he married Rebekah(AN) daughter of Bethuel(AO) the Aramean from Paddan Aram[c](AP) and sister of Laban(AQ) the Aramean.(AR)

21 Isaac prayed to the Lord on behalf of his wife, because she was childless.(AS) The Lord answered his prayer,(AT) and his wife Rebekah became pregnant. 22 The babies jostled each other within her, and she said, “Why is this happening to me?” So she went to inquire of the Lord.(AU)

23 The Lord said to her,

“Two nations(AV) 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.(AW)

24 When the time came for her to give birth,(AX) there were twin boys in her womb.(AY) 25 The first to come out was red,(AZ) and his whole body was like a hairy garment;(BA) so they named him Esau.[d](BB) 26 After this, his brother came out,(BC) with his hand grasping Esau’s heel;(BD) so he was named Jacob.[e](BE) Isaac was sixty years old(BF) when Rebekah gave birth to them.

27 The boys grew up, and Esau became a skillful hunter,(BG) a man of the open country,(BH) while Jacob was content to stay at home among the tents. 28 Isaac, who had a taste for wild game,(BI) loved Esau, but Rebekah loved Jacob.(BJ)

29 Once when Jacob was cooking some stew,(BK) Esau came in from the open country,(BL) famished. 30 He said to Jacob, “Quick, let me have some of that red stew!(BM) I’m famished!” (That is why he was also called Edom.[f])(BN)

31 Jacob replied, “First sell me your birthright.(BO)

32 “Look, I am about to die,” Esau said. “What good is the birthright to me?”

33 But Jacob said, “Swear(BP) to me first.” So he swore an oath to him, selling his birthright(BQ) to Jacob.

34 Then Jacob gave Esau some bread and some lentil stew.(BR) He ate and drank, and then got up and left.

So Esau despised his birthright.
