Chapter 25
Gene UKJV 25:1  Then again Abraham took a wife, and her name was Keturah.
Gene UKJV 25:2  And she bare him Zimran, and Jokshan, and Medan, and Midian, and Ishbak, and Shuah.
Gene UKJV 25:3  And Jokshan brings forth Sheba, and Dedan. And the sons of Dedan were Asshurim, and Letushim, and Leummim.
Gene UKJV 25:4  And the sons of Midian; Ephah, and Epher, and Hanoch, and Abidah, and Eldaah. All these were the children of Keturah.
Gene UKJV 25:6  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.
Gene UKJV 25:7  And these are the days of the years of Abraham's life which he lived, an hundred threescore and fifteen years.
Gene UKJV 25:8  Then Abraham gave up the spirit, and died in a good old age, an old man, and full of years; and was gathered to his people.
Gene UKJV 25:9  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;
Gene UKJV 25:10  The field which Abraham purchased of the sons of Heth: there was Abraham buried, and Sarah his wife.
Gene UKJV 25:11  And it came to pass after the death of Abraham, that God blessed his son Isaac; and Isaac dwelt by the well Lahairoi.
Gene UKJV 25:12  Now these are the generations of Ishmael, Abraham's son, whom Hagar the Egyptian, Sarah's handmaid, bare unto Abraham:
Gene UKJV 25:13  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,
Gene UKJV 25:16  These are the sons of Ishmael, and these are their names, by their towns, and by their castles; twelve princes according to their nations.
Gene UKJV 25:17  And these are the years of the life of Ishmael, an hundred and thirty and seven years: and he gave up the spirit and died; and was gathered unto his people.
Gene UKJV 25:18  And they dwelt from Havilah unto Shur, that is before Egypt, as you go toward Assyria: and he died in the presence of all his brethren.
Gene UKJV 25:19  And these are the generations of Isaac, Abraham's son: Abraham brings forth Isaac:
Gene UKJV 25:20  And Isaac was forty years old when he took Rebekah to wife, the daughter of Bethuel the Syrian of Padanaram, the sister to Laban the Syrian.
Gene UKJV 25:21  And Isaac implored the LORD for his wife, because she was barren: and the LORD was implored of him, and Rebekah his wife conceived.
Gene UKJV 25:22  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 LORD.
Gene UKJV 25:23  And the LORD said unto her, Two nations are in your womb, and two manner of people shall be separated from your bowels; and the one people shall be stronger than the other people; and the elder shall serve the younger.
Gene UKJV 25:24  And when her days to be delivered were fulfilled, behold, there were twins in her womb.
Gene UKJV 25:25  And the first came out red, all over like an hairy garment; and they called his name Esau.
Gene UKJV 25:26  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.
Gene UKJV 25:27  And the boys grew: and Esau was a cunning hunter, a man of the field; and Jacob was a plain man, dwelling in tents.
Gene UKJV 25:28  And Isaac loved Esau, because he did eat of his venison: but Rebekah loved Jacob.
Gene UKJV 25:29  And Jacob cook pottage: and Esau came from the field, and he was faint:
Gene UKJV 25:30  And Esau said to Jacob, Feed me, I pray you, with that same red pottage; for I am faint: therefore was his name called Edom.
Gene UKJV 25:31  And Jacob said, Sell me this day your birthright.
Gene UKJV 25:32  And Esau said, Behold, I am at the point to die: and what profit shall this birthright do to me?
Gene UKJV 25:33  And Jacob said, Swear to me this day; and he swore unto him: and he sold his birthright unto Jacob.
Gene UKJV 25:34  Then Jacob gave Esau bread and pottage of lentils; and he did eat and drink, and rose up, and went his way: thus Esau despised his birthright.
