And Jehovah said unto her, Two nations are in thy womb, And two peoples shall be separated from thy bowels. And the one people shall be stronger than the other people. And the elder shall serve the younger.

And these are the years of the life of Ishmael, a hundred and thirty and seven years. And he gave up the ghost and died, and was gathered unto his people.

And Abraham gave all that he had unto Isaac.

Now these are the generations of Ishmael, Abraham's son, whom Hagar the Egyptian, Sarah's handmaid, bare unto Abraham.

And Abraham took another wife, and her name was Keturah.

And she bare him Zimran, and Jokshan, and Medan, and Midian, and Ishbak, and Shuah.

And after that came forth his brother, and his hand had hold on Esau's heel. And his name was called Jacob. And Isaac was threescore years old when she bare them.

and Mishma, and Dumah, and Massa,

And Jokshan begat Sheba, and Dedan. And the sons of Dedan were Asshurim, and Letushim, and Leummim.

And Isaac was forty years old when he took Rebekah, the daughter of Bethuel the Syrian of Paddan-aram, the sister of Laban the Syrian, to be his wife.

And the boys grew. And Esau was a skilful hunter, a man of the field. And Jacob was a quiet man, dwelling in tents.

These are the sons of Ishmael, and these are their names, by their villages, and by their encampments. Twelve princes according to their nations.

Hadad, and Tema, Jetur, Naphish, and Kedemah.

And these are the days of the years of Abraham's life which he lived, a hundred threescore and fifteen years.

And when her days to be delivered were fulfilled, behold, there were twins in her womb.

And the sons of Midian: Ephah, and Epher, and Hanoch, and Abida, and Eldaah. All these were the children of Keturah.

Now Isaac loved Esau, because he did eat of his venison. And Rebekah loved Jacob.

And Jacob gave Esau bread and pottage of lentils. And he did eat and drink, and rose up, and went his way. So Esau despised his birthright.

And Jacob said, Swear to me first. And he sware unto him. And he sold his birthright unto Jacob.

And Esau said, Behold, I am about to die. And what profit shall the birthright do to me?

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.

And Jacob boiled pottage. And Esau came in from the field, and he was faint.

And Jacob said, Sell me first thy birthright.
