Abraham again took a wife, and her
name was Keturah.
2 And she bore him Zimran, Jokshan, Medan, Midian, Ishbak,
and Shuah.
3 Jokshan begot Sheba and Dedan. And the sons of Dedan were Asshurim,
Letushim, and Leummim.
4 And the sons of Midian were Ephah, Epher, Hanoch, Abidah,
and Eldaah. All these were the children
of Keturah.
5 And Abraham gave all that he had to Isaac.
6 But Abraham gave gifts to the sons of the concubines
which Abraham had; and while he was still living he sent them eastward, away
from Isaac his son, to the country of the east.
7 This is the sum of the years of Abraham’s life which he
lived: one hundred and seventy-five years.
8 Then Abraham breathed his last and died in a good old
age, and old man and full of years, and was gathered to his people.
9 And his sons Isaac and Ishmael buried him in the cave of
Machpelah, which is before Mamre, in the field of Ephron the son of Zohar the
Hittite,
10 The field which Abraham purchased from the sons of
Heth. There Abraham was buried, and
Sarah his wife.
11 And it came to pass, after the death of Abraham, that God
blessed his son Isaac. And Isaac dwelt
at Beer Lahai Roi.
12 Now this is the genealogy of Ishmael, Abraham’s son, whom
Hagar the Egyptian, Sarah’s maidservant, bore to Abraham.
13 And these were the names of the sons of
Ishmael, by their names, according to their generations: the firstborn of Ishmael,
Nebajoth; then Kedar, Adbeel, Mibsam,
14 Mishma, Dumah, Massa,
15 Hadar, Tema, Jetur, Maphish, and Kedemah.
16 These were the sons of Ishmael and these were their
names, by their towns and their settlements, twelve princes according to their
nations.
17 These were the years of the life of Ishmael: one hundred
and thirty-seven years; and he breathed his last and died, and was gathered to
his people.
18 (They dwelt from Havilah as far as Shur, which is east of
Egypt as you go toward Assyria.) He died
in the presence of all his brethren.
