Genesis 25:9-20 New Century Version (NCV)

9. His sons Isaac and Ishmael buried him in the cave of Machpelah in the field of Ephron east of Mamre. (Ephron was the son of Zohar the Hittite.)

10. So Abraham was buried with his wife Sarah in the same field that he had bought from the Hittites.

11. After Abraham died, God blessed his son Isaac. Isaac was now living at Beer Lahai Roi.

12. This is the family history of Ishmael, Abraham’s son. (Hagar, Sarah’s Egyptian servant, was Ishmael’s mother.)

13. These are the names of Ishmael’s sons in the order they were born: Nebaioth, the first son, then Kedar, Adbeel, Mibsam,

14. Mishma, Dumah, Massa,

15. Hadad, Tema, Jetur, Naphish, and Kedemah.

16. These were Ishmael’s sons, and these are the names of the tribal leaders listed according to their settlements and camps.

17. Ishmael lived one hundred thirty-seven years and then breathed his last breath and died.

18. His descendants lived from Havilah to Shur, which is east of Egypt stretching toward Assyria. They often attacked the descendants of his brothers.

19. This is the family history of Isaac. Abraham had a son named Isaac.

20. When Isaac was forty years old, he married Rebekah, who came from Northwest Mesopotamia. She was Bethuel’s daughter and the sister of Laban the Aramean.
