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 Lahai-roi.

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 Padan-aram, the sister to Laban the Syrian.

21

And Isaac intreated the \+w LORD|strong="H3068"\+w** for his wife, because she was* barren: and the \+w LORD|strong="H3068"\+w** 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 \+w LORD|strong="H3068"\+w**.

23

And the \+w LORD|strong="H3068"\+w** 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.
