Genesis 25:12-18
1599 Geneva Bible
12 ¶ Now these are the (A)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, name by name, according to their kindreds: the [a]eldest son of Ishmael was Nebajoth then 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: to wit, twelve princes of their nations.
17 (And these are the years of the life of Ishmael, an hundred thirty and seven years, and he yielded up the spirit, and died, and was gathered unto his [b]people.)
18 And they dwelt from Havilah unto Shur, that is towards Egypt, as thou goest to Asshur. Ishmael [c]dwelt [d]in the presence of all his brethren.
