17. And these are the years of the life of Yishmael, an hundred and thirty and seven shanah; and he breathed his last and died; and was gathered unto his people.
18. And they dwelt from Chavilah unto Shur, that is near Mitzrayim, as thou goest toward Assyria; they took their place east of their brethren.
19. And these are the toldot of Yitzchak ben Avraham: Avraham fathered Yitzchak;
20. And Yitzchak was arba'im shanah when he took Rivkah as his wife, the bat Betuel the Aramean of Padan Aram, the achot Lavan the Aramean.
21. And Yitzchak davened to Hashem on behalf of his isha, because she was barren; and Hashem was entreated of him, and Rivkah his isha conceived.
22. And the banim struggled jostling within her; and she said, If it be well, why am I thus? And she went to inquire of Hashem.
23. And Hashem said unto her, Two goyim (nations) are in thy womb, and two peoples shall be separated from within thee; and the one people shall be stronger than the other people; and the older shall serve the younger.
24. And when her days were fulfilled to be delivered, hinei, there were twins in her womb.
25. And the first came out admoni (red) all over like a hairy garment; and they called shmo Esav.
