创25:1  亚伯拉罕又娶了一妻，名叫基土拉。
Abraham took another wife, whose name was Keturah.

创25:2  基土拉给他生了心兰，约珊，米但，米甸，伊施巴，和书亚。
She bore him Zimran, Jokshan, Medan, Midian, Ishbak and Shuah.

创25:3  约珊生了示巴和底但。底但的子孙是亚书利族，利都是族，和利乌米族。
Jokshan was the father of Sheba and Dedan; the descendants of Dedan were the Asshurites, the Letushites and the Leummites.

创25:4  米甸的儿子是以法，以弗，哈诺，亚比大，和以勒大。这都是基土拉的子孙。
The sons of Midian were Ephah, Epher, Hanoch, Abida and Eldaah. All these were descendants of Keturah.

创25:5  亚伯拉罕将一切所有的都给了以撒。
Abraham left everything he owned to Isaac.

创25:6  亚伯拉罕把财物分给他庶出的众子，趁着自己还在世的时候打发他们离开他的儿子以撒，往东方去。
But while he was still living, he gave gifts to the sons of his concubines and sent them away from his son Isaac to the land of the east.

创25:7  亚伯拉罕一生的年日是一百七十五岁。
Altogether, Abraham lived a hundred and seventy-five years.

创25:8  亚伯拉罕寿高年迈，气绝而死，归到他列祖（原文作本民）那里。
Then Abraham breathed his last and died at a good old age, an old man and full of years; and he was gathered to his people.

创25:9  他两个儿子以撒，以实玛利把他埋葬在麦比拉洞里。这洞在幔利前，赫人琐辖的儿子以弗仑的田中，
His sons Isaac and Ishmael buried him in the cave of Machpelah near Mamre, in the field of Ephron son of Zohar the Hittite,

创25:10 就是亚伯拉罕向赫人买的那块田。亚伯拉罕和他妻子撒拉都葬在那里。
the field Abraham had bought from the Hittites. There Abraham was buried with his wife Sarah.

创25:11 亚伯拉罕死了以后，神赐福给他的儿子以撒。以撒靠近庇耳拉海莱居住。
After Abraham's death, God blessed his son Isaac, who then lived near Beer Lahai Roi.

创25:12 撒拉的使女埃及人夏甲给亚伯拉罕所生的儿子是以实玛利。
This is the account of Abraham's son Ishmael, whom Sarah's maidservant, Hagar the Egyptian, bore to Abraham.

创25:13 以实玛利儿子们的名字，按着他们的家谱记在下面。以实玛利的长子是尼拜约，又有基达，亚德别，米比衫，
These are the names of the sons of Ishmael, listed in the order of their birth: Nebaioth the firstborn of Ishmael, Kedar, Adbeel, Mibsam,

创25:14 米施玛，度玛，玛撒，
Mishma, Dumah, Massa,

创25:15 哈大，提玛，伊突，拿非施，基底玛。
Hadad, Tema, Jetur, Naphish and Kedemah.

创25:16 这是以实玛利众子的名字，照着他们的村庄，营寨，作了十二族的族长。
These were the sons of Ishmael, and these are the names of the twelve tribal rulers according to their settlements and camps.

创25:17 以实玛利享寿一百三十七岁，气绝而死，归到他列祖（原文作本民）那里。
Altogether, Ishmael lived a hundred and thirty-seven years. He breathed his last and died, and he was gathered to his people.

创25:18 他子孙的住处在他众弟兄东边，从哈腓拉直到埃及前的书珥，正在亚述的道上。
His descendants settled in the area from Havilah to Shur, near the border of Egypt, as you go toward Asshur. And they lived in hostility toward all their brothers.

创25:19 亚伯拉罕的儿子以撒的后代记在下面。亚伯拉罕生以撒。
This is the account of Abraham's son Isaac. Abraham became the father of Isaac,

创25:20 以撒娶利百加为妻的时候正四十岁。利百加是巴旦亚兰地的亚兰人彼土利的女儿，是亚兰人拉班的妹子。
and Isaac was forty years old when he married Rebekah daughter of Bethuel the Aramean from Paddan Aram and sister of Laban the Aramean.

创25:21 以撒因他妻子不生育，就为她祈求耶和华。耶和华应允他的祈求，他的妻子利百加就怀了孕。
Isaac prayed to the Lord on behalf of his wife, because she was barren. The Lord answered his prayer, and his wife Rebekah became pregnant.

创25:22 孩子们在她腹中彼此相争，她就说，若是这样，我为什么活着呢？（或作我为什么如此呢？）。她就去求问耶和华。
The babies jostled each other within her, and she said, 'Why is this happening to me?' So she went to inquire of the Lord .

创25:23 耶和华对她说，两国在你腹内。两族要从你身上出来。这族必强于那族。将来大的要服事小的。
The Lord said to her, 'Two nations 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.'

创25:24 生产的日子到了，腹中果然是双子。
When the time came for her to give birth, there were twin boys in her womb.

创25:25 先产的身体发红，浑身有毛，如同皮衣，他们就给他起名叫以扫（以扫就是有毛的意思）。
The first to come out was red, and his whole body was like a hairy garment; so they named him Esau.

创25:26 随后又生了以扫的兄弟，手抓住以扫的脚跟，因此给他起名叫雅各（雅各就是抓住的意思）。利百加生下两个儿子的时候，以撒年正六十岁。
After this, his brother came out, with his hand grasping Esau's heel; so he was named Jacob. Isaac was sixty years old when Rebekah gave birth to them.

创25:27 两个孩子渐渐长大，以扫善于打猎，常在田野。雅各为人安静，常住在帐棚里。
The boys grew up, and Esau became a skillful hunter, a man of the open country, while Jacob was a quiet man, staying among the tents.

创25:28 以撒爱以扫，因为常吃他的野味。利百加却爱雅各。
Isaac, who had a taste for wild game, loved Esau, but Rebekah loved Jacob.

创25:29 有一天，雅各熬汤，以扫从田野回来累昏了。
Once when Jacob was cooking some stew, Esau came in from the open country, famished.

创25:30 以扫对雅各说，我累昏了，求你把这红汤给我喝。因此以扫又叫以东（以东就是红的意思）。
He said to Jacob, 'Quick, let me have some of that red stew! I'm famished!' (That is why he was also called Edom. )

创25:31 雅各说，你今日把长子的名分卖给我吧。
Jacob replied, 'First sell me your birthright.'

创25:32 以扫说，我将要死，这长子的名分于我有什么益处呢？
'Look, I am about to die,' Esau said. 'What good is the birthright to me?'

创25:33 雅各说，你今日对我起誓吧。以扫就对他起了誓，把长子的名分卖给雅各。
But Jacob said, 'Swear to me first.' So he swore an oath to him, selling his birthright to Jacob.

创25:34 于是雅各将饼和红豆汤给了以扫，以扫吃了喝了，便起来走了。这就是以扫轻看了他长子的名分。
Then Jacob gave Esau some bread and some lentil stew. He ate and drank, and then got up and left. So Esau despised his birthright.
