¹Abraham took another wife, and her name was Keturah.

¹Huan, Abrahamin ji dang a neia, amin Ketura ahi.

²She bore him Zimran, Jokshan, Medan, Midian, Ishbak, and Shuah.

²Huan, aman Joksante, Jedante, Midiante, Isbakte, Suahte a neihsaka.

⁵Abraham gave all that he had to Isaac,

⁵Huan, Abrahamin aneih tengteng Isaak kiangah a pia.

⁶but to the sons of Abraham’s concubines, Abraham gave gifts. He sent them away from Isaac his son, while he yet lived, eastward, to the east country.

⁶A mei tapate kiangah bel Abrahamin kipahmante a pia a; huan, amah a damlai in a tapa Isaak kianga kipan suahlam ah suahlam gamah, a pai mangsak hi.

⁷These are the days of the years of Abraham’s life which he lived: one hundred seventy-five years.

⁷Huan, Abraham damsung kum za khat leh kum sawm sagih leh kum nga ahi.

⁸Abraham gave up the spirit, and died in a good old age, an old man, and full of years, and was gathered to his people.

⁸Huan, Abrahamin a kha a khahta hi, lu a kelsam pou vekin putek pi, tekkuna damin a sia, a chipihte kiangah piin a om samta hi.

⁹Isaac and Ishmael, his sons, buried him in the cave of Machpelah, in the field of Ephron, the son of Zohar the Hittite, which is before Mamre,

⁹Huan, a tapa Isaak leh Ismaelin Hit mi Zohar tapa Ephron loua, Mamre phak maa Makpel kokhuk ah a vuita ua;

¹⁰the field which Abraham purchased of the children of Heth. Abraham was buried there with Sarah, his wife.

¹⁰Huai lou Abrahamin Heth suante akipana a leisa ahi: huailaiah Abraham a vui ua, a zi Sara toh.

¹¹It happened after the death of Abraham that God blessed Isaac, his son. Isaac lived by Beer Lahai Roi.

¹¹Huan, hichi ahia, Abraham sih nungin, Pathianin a tapa Isaak a vualzawla; huan, Isaak Beer-lahai-roi kiangah a om hi.

¹²Now this is the history of the generations of Ishmael, Abraham’s son, whom Hagar the Egyptian, Sarah’s handmaid, bore to Abraham.

¹²Huan, hiaite Abraham tapa Ismael, Sara sikhanu Aigupta mi Haharin Abraham a neihsak suante ahi uh:

¹³These are the names of the sons of Ishmael, by their names, according to the order of their birth: the firstborn of Ishmael, Nebaioth, then Kedar, Adbeel, Mibsam,

¹⁸Huan, a tapate Havila gam akipanin Assuria gam lamsanga Aigupta gam phak maa Sur tanin a om ua: a unau tengteng kiang nai ah a om hi.

¹⁹This is the history of the generations of Isaac, Abraham’s son. Abraham became the father of Isaac.

¹⁹Huan, hiaite Abraham tapa Isaak suante ahi uh: Abrahamin tapa Isaak a neia:

²⁰Isaac 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.

²⁰Isaak in Paddan-aram gama Suria mi Bethuel tanu, Suria mi Laban sanggamnu Rebeka a ji dinga a neih laiin kum sawm li a upa ahi.

²¹Isaac entreated Yahweh for his wife, because she was barren. Yahweh was entreated by him, and Rebekah his wife conceived.

²¹Huan, a ji a chin jiakin Isaakin Toupa a ji adingin nget petmahin a ngetsak a: huan, Toupan a ngetna a ngaihkhiak saka, huchiin a ji Rebeka a gai.

²²The children struggled together within her. She said, “If it be so, why do I live?” She went to inquire of Yahweh.

²²Huan, a nau paite a sungah a kisual ua; huan, aman, hichi bang ahih ngal leh, bangjiakin ahia ka hin leh? Achia. Huchiin Toupa dong dingin a kuantaa.

²³Yahweh said to her, “Two nations are in your womb. Two peoples will be separated from your body. The one people will be stronger than the other people. The elder will serve the younger.”

²³Huan, Toupan, a kiangah, Na sul ah chi nih a om uh, na gil sunga kipanin nam nih a kikhen ding uh: nam khat nam khat sangin ahatzaw dinga; huan, a upa jawin a naupangjaw na a sem ding achia.

²⁴When her days to be delivered were fulfilled, behold, there were twins in her womb.

²⁴Huan, a nau neih a hunin, ngaiin, a sul ah phik a hong omta ua.

²⁵The first came out red all over, like a hairy garment. They named him Esau.

²⁵Huan a masajaw a sana san seksawk, puan mulbanga mul thiapthuapin a hongpawta, huchiin amin dingin Esau a sa uh.

²⁶After that, his brother came out, and his hand had hold on Esau’s heel. He was named Jacob. Isaac was sixty years old when she bore them.

²⁶Huai nungin a nau a pawt nawna, a khut in Esau khetul a len gige a; huchiin amah min dingin Jakob a sa uh: huan, Rebekain amaute a neih laiin Isaak kum sawm guka upa ahi.

²⁷The boys grew. Esau was a skillful hunter, a man of the field. Jacob was a quiet man, living in tents.

²⁷Huan, naupangte a hongkhangliana ua: huan, Esau sabet siam, gammi ahi a; Jakob bel mi mawl, puanin a teng mi ahi.

²⁸Now Isaac loved Esau, because he ate his venison. Rebekah loved Jacob.

²⁸Huan, Isaakin, a sakhi sa a nek jel jiakin, Esau a ita; Rebekain bel Jakob a it jaw hi.

²⁹Jacob boiled stew. Esau came in from the field, and he was famished.

²⁹Huan, Jakobin be a huana; huan, Esau gam kuan a hongtunga, a tawl mahmaha:

³⁰Esau said to Jacob, “Please feed me with that same red stew, for I am famished.” Therefore his name was called Edom.

³⁰Huan Esauin Jakob kiangah, hehpihtakin na be huan hon nesak in; ka bah mahmah mai, achia. Huaijiakin ahi, a min dia Edom a chih uh.

³¹Jacob said, “First, sell me your birthright.”

³¹Huan, Jakobin, na ta masa hihna honleisak phot lechin, achia.

³²Esau said, “Behold, I am about to die. What good is the birthright to me?”

³²Huan, Esauin, Ngaiin, si dekdek ka hi ngala: ta masa hihna kia kei dingin bang a phatuam dia? A chia.

³³Jacob said, “Swear to me first.” He swore to him. He sold his birthright to Jacob.

³³Huan, Jakobin, Tuniin ka kiangah kichiam photin, achia; huan, a kiangah a kichiama: huchiin ata masa hihna Jakob kiangah a khawng maimah ta.Huan, Jakobin Esau tanghou leh a be huan a piaa; huchiin a ne a, a dawna, a thoua, a paita; Huchibangin Esauin a ta masa hihna a ngaineu hi.

³⁴Jacob gave Esau bread and stew of lentils. He ate and drank, rose up, and went his way. So Esau despised his birthright.

³⁴Huan, Jakobin Esau tanghou leh a be huan a piaa; huchiin a ne a, a dawna, a thoua, a paita; Huchibangin Esauin a ta masa hihna a ngaineu hi.
