Chapter 25

Then again Abraham took a wife, and her name was Keturah.

Abraham prit encore une femme, nommée Ketura.

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

Elle lui enfanta Zimran, Jokschan, Medan, Madian, Jischbak et Schuach.

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

Jokschan engendra Séba et Dedan. Les fils de Dedan furent les Aschurim, les Letuschim et les Leummim.

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

Les fils de Madian furent Épha, Épher, Hénoc, Abida et Eldaa. -Ce sont là tous les fils de Ketura.

And Abraham gave all that he had unto Isaac.

Abraham donna tous ses biens à Isaac.

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.

Il fit des dons aux fils de ses concubines; et, tandis qu`il vivait encore, il les envoya loin de son fils Isaac du côté de l`orient, dans le pays d`Orient.

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

Voici les jours des années de la vie d`Abraham: il vécut cent soixante quinze ans.

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.

Abraham expira et mourut, après une heureuse vieillesse, âgé et rassasié de jours, et il fut recueilli auprès de son peuple.

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;

Isaac et Ismaël, ses fils, l`enterrèrent dans la caverne de Macpéla, dans le champ d`Éphron, fils de Tsochar, le Héthien, vis-à-vis de Mamré.

The field which Abraham purchased of the sons of Heth: there was Abraham buried, and Sarah his wife.

C`est le champ qu`Abraham avait acquis des fils de Heth. Là furent enterrés Abraham et Sara, sa femme.

And it came to pass after the death of Abraham, that God blessed his son Isaac; and Isaac dwelt by the well Lahairoi.

Après la mort d`Abraham, Dieu bénit Isaac, son fils. Il habitait près du puits de Lachaï roï.

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

Voici la postérité d`Ismaël, fils d`Abraham, qu`Agar, l`Égyptienne, servante de Sara, avait enfanté à Abraham.

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,

Voici les noms des fils d`Ismaël, par leurs noms, selon leurs générations: Nebajoth, premier-né d`Ismaël, Kédar, Adbeel, Mibsam,

And Mishma, and Dumah, and Massa,

Mischma, Duma, Massa,

Hadar, and Tema, Jetur, Naphish, and Kedemah:

Hadad, Théma, Jethur, Naphisch et Kedma.

These are the sons of Ishmael, and these are their names, by their towns, and by their castles; twelve princes according to their nations.

Ce sont là les fils d`Ismaël; ce sont là leurs noms, selon leurs parcs et leurs enclos. Ils furent les douze chefs de leurs peuples.

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.

Et voici les années de la vie d`Ismaël: cent trente-sept ans. Il expira et mourut, et il fut recueilli auprès de son peuple.

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.

Ses fils habitèrent depuis Havila jusqu`à Schur, qui est en face de l`Égypte, en allant vers l`Assyrie. Il s`établit en présence de tous ses frères.

And these are the generations of Isaac, Abraham's son: Abraham begat Isaac:

Voici la postérité d`Isaac, fils d`Abraham.

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.

Abraham engendra Isaac. Isaac était âgé de quarante ans, quand il prit pour femme Rebecca, fille de Bethuel, l`Araméen, de Paddan Aram, et soeur de Laban, l`Araméen.

And Isaac intreated the LORD for his wife, because she was barren: and the LORD was intreated of him, and Rebekah his wife conceived.

Isaac implora l`Éternel pour sa femme, car elle était stérile, et l`Éternel l`exauça: Rebecca, sa femme, devint enceinte.

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.

Les enfants se heurtaient dans son sein; et elle dit: S`il en est ainsi, pourquoi suis-je enceinte? Elle alla consulter l`Éternel.

And the LORD 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.

Et l`Éternel lui dit: Deux nations sont dans ton ventre, et deux peuples se sépareront au sortir de tes entrailles; un de ces peuples sera plus fort que l`autre, et le plus grand sera assujetti au plus petit.

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

Les jours où elle devait accoucher s`accomplirent; et voici, il y avait deux jumeaux dans son ventre.

And the first came out red, all over like an hairy garment; and they called his name Esau.

Le premier sortit entièrement roux, comme un manteau de poil; et on lui donna le nom d`Ésaü.

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.

Ensuite sortit son frère, dont la main tenait le talon d`Ésaü; et on lui donna le nom de Jacob. Isaac était âgé de soixante ans, lorsqu`ils naquirent.

And the boys grew: and Esau was a cunning hunter, a man of the field; and Jacob was a plain man, dwelling in tents.

Ces enfants grandirent. Ésaü devint un habile chasseur, un homme des champs; mais Jacob fut un homme tranquille, qui restait sous les tentes.

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

Isaac aimait Ésaü, parce qu`il mangeait du gibier; et Rebecca aimait Jacob.

And Jacob sod pottage: and Esau came from the field, and he was faint:

Comme Jacob faisait cuire un potage, Ésaü revint des champs, accablé de fatigue.

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.

Et Ésaü dit à Jacob: Laisse-moi, je te prie, manger de ce roux, de ce roux-là, car je suis fatigué. C`est pour cela qu`on a donné à Ésaü le nom d`Édom.

And Jacob said, Sell me this day thy birthright.

Jacob dit: Vends-moi aujourd`hui ton droit d`aînesse.

And Esau said, Behold, I am at the point to die: and what profit shall this birthright do to me?

Ésaü répondit: Voici, je m`en vais mourir; à quoi me sert ce droit d`aînesse?

And Jacob said, Swear to me this day; and he sware unto him: and he sold his birthright unto Jacob.

Et Jacob dit: Jure-le moi d`abord. Il le lui jura, et il vendit son droit d`aînesse à Jacob.

Then Jacob gave Esau bread and pottage of lentiles; and he did eat and drink, and rose up, and went his way: thus Esau despised his birthright.

Alors Jacob donna à Ésaü du pain et du potage de lentilles. Il mangea et but, puis se leva et s`en alla. C`est ainsi qu`Ésaü méprisa le droit d`aînesse.
