Jenèz 25-26
Haitian Creole Version
25 ¶ Abraram te pran yon lòt fanm yo te rele Ketoura.
2 Ketoura fè sis pitit pou li: Zimran, Joksan, Medan, Madyan, Jisbak ak Swak.
3 Joksan te papa Seba ak Dedan. Men pitit Dedan yo: Se te moun Achou yo, moun Letouch yo ak moun Lemou yo.
4 Men pitit Madyan yo: Se te Efa, Efe, Enòk, Abida ak Elda. Se tout moun sa yo ki te pitit ak pitit pitit Ketoura.
5 Abraram kite tout byen l' yo pou Izarak.
6 Men anvan l' mouri, li te bay pitit li te fè ak lòt fanm kay yo kèk kado. Apre sa, li fè yo pati, li voye yo byen lwen Izarak, pitit gason l' lan, li voye yo nan peyi kote solèy leve a.
7 Abraram te viv sanswasannkenzan (175 an).
8 Abraram te fin granmoun, li te wè kont jou l', li te pase vye jou l' yo san pwoblèm. Apre sa li mouri, li al jwenn moun li yo ki te mouri deja.
9 Izarak ak Izmayèl, pitit li yo, antere l' nan twou wòch Makpela a, nan jaden Efwon, pitit Zoka, yon moun Et, anfas Manmre.
10 Se jaden sa a Abraram te achte nan men mesye Et yo. Se la yo te antere Abraram ak Sara, madanm li.
11 ¶ Apre Abraram mouri, Bondye te beni Izarak, pitit gason l' lan, ki te rete toupre Pi moun vivan ki wè m' lan.
12 Men pitit pitit Izmayèl, pitit Abraram lan. Se Aga, moun peyi Lejip, sèvant Sara, ki te fè pitit sa a pou Abraram.
13 Men non pitit Izmayèl yo. N'ap konmanse ak pi gran an pou rive sou pi piti a. Nebajòt te premye pitit Izmayèl. Apre li vini Keda, Adbeyèl, Mibsam,
14 Michma, Douma, Masa,
15 Adad, Tema, Jetou, Nafich ak Kedma.
16 Se yo ki te pitit Izmayèl. Se konsa yo te rele yo ansanm ak tout katye kote yo te rete ak kote yo te moute tant yo. Sa te fè douz chèf, chak ak nasyon pa yo.
17 Izmayèl te gen santrannsetan (137 an) lè l' mouri. Y al antere l' menm kote ak moun li yo ki te mouri deja.
18 Pitit pitit Izmayèl yo te rete sou teritwa ki konmanse depi Avila rive jouk Chou, anfas peyi Lejip sou bò solèy leve a, anvan ou pran peyi Lasiri. Yo t'ap viv pou kont yo. Yo pa t' mele ak rès fanmi yo.
19 ¶ Men istwa Izarak, pitit Abraram.
20 Abraram te papa Izarak. Izarak te gen karantan lè li marye ak Rebeka ki te pitit fi Betwèl, moun lavil Aram, ki te rete nan peyi Mezopotami an. Rebeka te sè Laban, moun lavil Aram.
21 Madanm Izarak pa t' ka fè pitit. Izarak lapriyè Seyè a pou li, Seyè a reponn li. Rebeka, madanm li, vin ansent.
22 De ti pitit yo t'ap plede goumen nan vant li. Rebeka di: -Si se konsa sa ye, mwen pa konprann anyen? li al lapriyè Seyè a.
23 Seyè a reponn li: -Ou gen de nasyon nan vant ou. W'ap fè de pèp: chak ap pran bò pa yo. Yonn p'ap vle wè lòt. Yonn ap pi gwonèg pase lòt. Pi gran an pral sou zòd pi piti a.
24 Lè jou pou Rebeka akouche a rive, li fè de marasa.
25 Premye ki te fèt la te tout wouj. Li te kouvri ak pwal sou tout kò l'. Se poutèt sa yo te rele l' Ezaou.
26 Lè dezyèm lan te fèt, men li te kenbe Ezaou nan talon pye l': se poutèt sa yo rele l' Jakòb. Izarak te gen swasantan sou tèt li lè yo te fèt.
27 Timoun yo grandi. Ezaou te vin yon bon chasè, li te toujou nan bwa. Men Jakòb te yon nonm byen dousman, li te renmen rete lakay.
28 Izarak te pito Ezaou, paske li te renmen manje vyann jibye, men Rebeka te pito Jakòb.
29 ¶ Yon jou, Jakòb te fin kwit yon bon bouyon, Ezaou antre sot nan jaden, li te bouke anpil.
30 Li di Jakòb konsa: -M'ap mouri grangou. Tanpri, ban m' ti gout nan bouyon pwa wouj ou a. Se poutèt sa yo te bay Ezaou yon lòt ti non. Yo te rele l' Edon.
31 Men Jakòb di l': -M'ap ba ou ti gout si ou vann mwen dwa ou kòm premye pitit.
32 Ezaou reponn: -Dakò. Mwen pral mouri. Kisa dwa kòm premye pitit la ap sèvi m'?
33 Jakòb di li: -Fè m' sèman anvan. Ezaou fè sèman ba li, li vann li dwa l' kòm premye pitit.
34 Lèfini, Jakòb ba li pen ak ti gout nan bouyon pwa a. Ezaou manje, li bwè. Li leve, li pati. Konsa, Ezaou te konsidere dwa li kòm premye pitit pou anyen.
26 ¶ Te vin gen yon lòt grangou nan peyi a, pi rèd pase sa ki te tonbe sou peyi a nan tan Abraram lan. Lè sa a, Izarak ale yon kote yo rele Gera kay Abimelèk, wa moun Filisti yo.
2 Izarak fè yon vizyon, li wè Seyè a parèt devan l'. Seyè a di l': -Pa desann nan peyi Lejip, rete kote m'ap di ou rete a.
3 W'a pase kèk tan nan peyi sa a. M'ap avè ou, m'ap beni ou, paske mwen pral ba ou tout tè sa a pou ou menm ak pou tout ras ou. m'a kenbe sèman mwen te fè bay Abraram, papa ou.
4 M'ap ba ou anpil anpil pitit tankou zetwal nan syèl la. M'ap ba yo tout tè sa yo. Gremesi pitit pitit ou yo, tout nasyon sou latè pral jwenn benediksyon.
5 tout sa, paske Abraram te tande m' lè m' te pale avè l', li te swiv tout lòd mwen yo ak tout kòmandman mwen yo. Li te fè tout sa mwen mande l', li te obeyi tout lwa mwen yo.
6 ¶ Se konsa Izarak rete kote yo rele Gera a.
7 Lè mesye ki te rete nan peyi a mande l' kisa madanm li ye pou li, li reponn yo se sè l' li ye, paske li te pè di se madanm li Rebeka te ye pou mesye yo pa t' touye l' pou yo te ka pran Rebeka ki te bèl anpil.
8 Izarak te gen kèk tan depi l' te rete la. Yon jou, Abimelek, wa moun Filisti yo, t'ap gade nan fennèt li, li te wè Izarak ki t'ap pase men sou Rebeka, madanm li.
9 Lè sa a, Abimelèk voye chache Izarak. Li di l' konsa: -Gade non, monchè, se madanm ou li ye! Poukisa ou di se sè ou li ye! Izarak reponn li: -Mwen te di sa paske mwen te kwè yo ta ka touye m', si m' te di se madanm mwen li ye.
10 Abimelèk di l': -Kisa ou fè nou konsa? Yonn nan mesye nou yo ta ka byen rive kouche avèk madanm ou! Se ou ki ta lakòz nou fè peche sa a.
11 Se konsa Abimelèk pase lòd sa a bay tout pèp la: -Si yon moun manyen nonm sa a, osinon madanm li, y'ap touye l'.
12 ¶ Izarak fè jaden nan peyi a. Lè lanne a bout, li rekòlte san fwa valè sa l' te plante a, paske Seyè a te beni l'.
13 Msye te vin rich. Li t'ap fè lajan toujou, jouk li rive vin rich anpil anpil.
14 Li te gen kantite kabrit, mouton ak bèf, ak anpil moun ki t'ap sèvi l'. Sa te fè moun Filisti yo rayi sò li.
15 Se konsa yo konble tout pi domestik Abraram yo te fouye sou tan Abraram, papa Izarak. Yo plen yo tè.
16 Lèfini, Abimelèk di Izarak: -Pati, al fè wout ou! Ou pi grannèg pase nou.
17 Se konsa Izarak pati kite kote l' te ye a, li ale nan Fon Gera a. Se la li moute kay li pou l' rete.
18 Li fè refouye tout pi dlo yo te fouye sou tan Abraram, papa l'. Se pi sa yo moun Filisti yo te bouche apre lanmò Abraram. Izarak ba yo menm non papa l' te ba yo a.
19 Domestik Izarak yo te fouye ankò nan fon an. Yo te jwenn yon sous dlo k'ap ponpe.
20 Men, gadò mouton peyi Gera yo leve yon sèl kont avèk gadò mouton Izarak yo. Yo t'ap di: -Dlo sa a, se pou nou li ye. Se konsa Izarak rele pi a Pi dezagreman paske yo te chache l' dezagreman pou dlo a.
21 Domestik Izarak yo fouye yon lòt pi ki te lakòz yo chache yo kont ankò. Se konsa Izarak rele pi a Pi ki fè lènmi.
22 Lè l' wè sa, li wete kò l' kote l' te ye a, li fouye yon lòt pi pou sa pa t' fè kont. Se poutèt sa li rele pi a Pi ki pa nan kont. Li di: -Koulye a Seyè a ban nou kont espas nan peyi a pou nou pa nan kont. Se atò zafè nou pral mache nan peyi a.
23 Izarak pati, li moute Bècheba.
24 Menm jou sa a, nan mitan lannwit, Seyè a parèt nan yon vizyon, li di Izarak konsa: -Mwen se Bondye Abraram, papa ou. Ou pa bezwen pè anyen, paske mwen la avèk ou. M'ap beni ou, m'ap ba ou anpil pitit pitit, poutèt Abraram, sèvitè m' lan.
25 Izarak bati yon lotèl la, li fè sèvis pou Seyè a. Li moute kay li la. Domestik li yo fouye yon lòt pi.
26 ¶ Abimelèk soti Gera, li vin wè Izarak. Li te gen avè l' Akouzat, yon bon zanmi l', ak Pikòl, kòmandan lame li a.
27 Izarak mande yo: -Poukisa nou vin wè m' koulye a? Jan nou te rayi m' sa a jouk nou te rive mete m' deyò nan peyi nou an!
28 Yo reponn li: -Koulye a nou konnen Seyè a avèk ou. Se poutèt sa nou di n'ap fè yon kontra avè ou, n'ap sèmante yonn bay lòt.
29 W'ap sèmante ou p'ap janm fè nou anyen, menm jan nou pa t' janm fè ou anyen. W'ap sèmante nou te toujou aji byen avè ou. Nou kite ou ale san bri san kont. Koulye a, ou gen benediksyon Bondye sou ou.
30 Izarak fè gwo fèt pou yo. Yo manje, yo bwè.
31 Nan granmaten, yo leve, yo sèmante yonn bay lòt. Apre sa, moun Filisti yo di Izarak orevwa. Yo separe tankou de bon zanmi, epi y al fè wout yo.
32 Menm jou sa a, domestik Izarak yo vin ba l' nouvèl pi yo t'ap fouye a. Yo di l': -Nou jwenn dlo.
33 Izarak rele pi a Chibeya. Se poutèt sa, jouk jòdi a, yo rele lavil la Bècheba.
34 ¶ Ezaou te gen karantan lè l' marye ak Jidit, pitit fi Beri, yon moun Et. Li te gen yon lòt madanm tout yo te rele Basmat, pitit fi Elon, yon moun Et tou.
35 Medam sa yo te rann Izarak ak Rebeka lavi minab.

Genesis 25-26
New International Version
The Death of Abraham(A)
25 Abraham had taken another wife, whose name was Keturah. 2 She bore him Zimran,(B) Jokshan, Medan, Midian,(C) Ishbak and Shuah.(D) 3 Jokshan was the father of Sheba(E) and Dedan;(F) the descendants of Dedan were the Ashurites, the Letushites and the Leummites. 4 The sons of Midian were Ephah,(G) Epher, Hanok, Abida and Eldaah. All these were descendants of Keturah.
5 Abraham left everything he owned to Isaac.(H) 6 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)
7 Abraham lived a hundred and seventy-five years.(L) 8 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) 9 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.
Isaac and Abimelek(BS)
26 Now there was a famine in the land(BT)—besides the previous famine in Abraham’s time—and Isaac went to Abimelek king of the Philistines(BU) in Gerar.(BV) 2 The Lord appeared(BW) to Isaac and said, “Do not go down to Egypt;(BX) live in the land where I tell you to live.(BY) 3 Stay in this land for a while,(BZ) and I will be with you(CA) and will bless you.(CB) For to you and your descendants I will give all these lands(CC) and will confirm the oath I swore to your father Abraham.(CD) 4 I will make your descendants(CE) as numerous as the stars in the sky(CF) and will give them all these lands,(CG) and through your offspring[g] all nations on earth will be blessed,[h](CH) 5 because Abraham obeyed me(CI) and did everything I required of him, keeping my commands, my decrees(CJ) and my instructions.(CK)” 6 So Isaac stayed in Gerar.(CL)
7 When the men of that place asked him about his wife, he said, “She is my sister,(CM)” because he was afraid to say, “She is my wife.” He thought, “The men of this place might kill me on account of Rebekah, because she is beautiful.”
8 When Isaac had been there a long time, Abimelek king of the Philistines(CN) looked down from a window and saw Isaac caressing his wife Rebekah. 9 So Abimelek summoned Isaac and said, “She is really your wife! Why did you say, ‘She is my sister’?(CO)”
Isaac answered him, “Because I thought I might lose my life on account of her.”
10 Then Abimelek said, “What is this you have done to us?(CP) One of the men might well have slept with your wife, and you would have brought guilt upon us.”
11 So Abimelek gave orders to all the people: “Anyone who harms(CQ) this man or his wife shall surely be put to death.”(CR)
12 Isaac planted crops in that land and the same year reaped a hundredfold,(CS) because the Lord blessed him.(CT) 13 The man became rich, and his wealth continued to grow until he became very wealthy.(CU) 14 He had so many flocks and herds and servants(CV) that the Philistines envied him.(CW) 15 So all the wells(CX) that his father’s servants had dug in the time of his father Abraham, the Philistines stopped up,(CY) filling them with earth.
16 Then Abimelek said to Isaac, “Move away from us;(CZ) you have become too powerful for us.(DA)”
17 So Isaac moved away from there and encamped in the Valley of Gerar,(DB) where he settled. 18 Isaac reopened the wells(DC) that had been dug in the time of his father Abraham, which the Philistines had stopped up after Abraham died, and he gave them the same names his father had given them.
19 Isaac’s servants dug in the valley and discovered a well of fresh water there. 20 But the herders of Gerar quarreled(DD) with those of Isaac and said, “The water is ours!”(DE) So he named the well Esek,[i] because they disputed with him. 21 Then they dug another well, but they quarreled(DF) over that one also; so he named it Sitnah.[j] 22 He moved on from there and dug another well, and no one quarreled over it. He named it Rehoboth,[k](DG) saying, “Now the Lord has given us room(DH) and we will flourish(DI) in the land.”
23 From there he went up to Beersheba.(DJ) 24 That night the Lord appeared to him and said, “I am the God of your father Abraham.(DK) Do not be afraid,(DL) for I am with you;(DM) I will bless you and will increase the number of your descendants(DN) for the sake of my servant Abraham.”(DO)
25 Isaac built an altar(DP) there and called on the name of the Lord.(DQ) There he pitched his tent, and there his servants dug a well.(DR)
26 Meanwhile, Abimelek had come to him from Gerar, with Ahuzzath his personal adviser and Phicol the commander of his forces.(DS) 27 Isaac asked them, “Why have you come to me, since you were hostile to me and sent me away?(DT)”
28 They answered, “We saw clearly that the Lord was with you;(DU) so we said, ‘There ought to be a sworn agreement between us’—between us and you. Let us make a treaty(DV) with you 29 that you will do us no harm,(DW) just as we did not harm you but always treated you well and sent you away peacefully. And now you are blessed by the Lord.”(DX)
30 Isaac then made a feast(DY) for them, and they ate and drank. 31 Early the next morning the men swore an oath(DZ) to each other. Then Isaac sent them on their way, and they went away peacefully.
32 That day Isaac’s servants came and told him about the well(EA) they had dug. They said, “We’ve found water!” 33 He called it Shibah,[l] and to this day the name of the town has been Beersheba.[m](EB)
Jacob Takes Esau’s Blessing
34 When Esau was forty years old,(EC) he married Judith daughter of Beeri the Hittite, and also Basemath daughter of Elon the Hittite.(ED) 35 They were a source of grief to Isaac and Rebekah.(EE)
