And it was at that time that Avraham again took a wife in his old age, and her name was Keturah, from the land of Kena’an.
2
And she bore to him Zimran, Yoqshan, Medan, Midyan, Ishbak and Shuach, being six sons. And the children of Zimran were Abihen, Molich and Narim.
3
And the sons of Yoqshan were Sheba and Dedan, and the sons of Medan were Amida, Yo’av, Gochi, Elisha and Nothach; and the sons of Midyan were Ephah, Epher, Chanoch, Abida and Eldaah.

5
And the sons of Shuach were Bildad, Mamdad, Munan and Meban; all these are the families of the children of Keturah the Canaanitish woman which she bore to Avraham the Ivri.
6
And Avraham sent all these away, and he gave them gifts, and they went away from his son Yitschaq to dwell wherever they should find a place.
7
And all these went to the mountain at the east, and they built themselves six cities in which they lived to this day.
8
But the children of Sheba and Dedan, children of Yoqshan, with their children, did not dwell with their brethren in their cities, and they journeyed and encamped in the countries and wildernesses to this day.
9
And the children of Midyan, son of Avraham, went to the east of the land of Cush, and they there found a large valley in the eastern country, and they remained there and built a city, and they lived in it, that is the land of Midyan to this day.
10
And Midyan lived in the city which he built, he and his five sons and all belonging to him.
11
And these are the names of the sons of Midyan according to their names in their cities, Ephah, Epher, Chanoch, Abida and Eldaah.
12
And the sons of Ephah were Methach, Meshar, Avi and Tzanua, and the sons of Epher were Ephron, Zur, Alirun and Medin, and the sons of Chanoch were Reuel, Rekem, Azi, Alyoshub and Alad.
13
And the sons of Abida were Chur, Melud, Kerury, Molchi; and the sons of Eldaah were Miker, and Reba, and Malchiyah and Gabol; these are the names of the Midyaniym according to their families; and afterward the families of Midyan spread throughout the land of Midyan.
14
And these are the generations of Yishma’el the son Avraham, whom Hagar, Sarah's handmaid, bore to Avraham.
15
And Yishma’el took a wife from the land of Mitsrayim, and her name was Ribah, the same is Meribah.
16
And Ribah bore to Yishma’el Nebayoth, Kedar, Adbeel, Mibsam and their sister Bosmath.
17
And Yishma’el cast away his wife Ribah, and she went from him and returned to Mitsrayim to the house of her father, and she lived there, for she had been very bad in the sight of Yishma’el, and in the sight of his father Avraham.
18
And Yishma’el afterward took a wife from the land of Kena’an, and her name was Malchuth, and she bore to him Nishma, Dumah, Masa, Chadad, Tema, Yetur, Naphish and Kedma.
19
These are the sons of Yishma’el, and these are their names, being twelve princes according to their nations; and the families of Yishma’el afterward spread forth, and Yishma’el took his children and all the property that he had gained, together with the souls of his household and all belonging to him, and they went to dwell where they should find a place.
20
And they went and lived near the wilderness of Paran, and their dwelling was from Havilah to Shur, that is before Mitsrayim as you come toward Ashshur.
21
And Yishma’el and his sons lived in the land, and they had children born to them, and they were fruitful and increased abundantly.
22
And these are the names of the sons of Nebayoth the first born of Yishma’el; Mend, Send, Mayon; and the sons of Kedar were Alyon, Kezem, Chamad and Eli.
23
And the sons of Adbeel were Chamad and Yaviyn; and the sons of Mibsam were Obadiah, Ebedmelech and Yeush; these are the families of the children of Ribah the wife of Yishma’el.
24
And the sons of Mishma the son of Yishma’el were Shamua, Zecaryon and Obed; and the sons of Dumah were Kezed, Eli, Machmad and Amed.
25
And the sons of Masa were Melon, Mula and Ebidadon; and the sons of Chadad were Azur, Minzar and Ebedmelech; and the sons of Tema were Seir, Sadon and Yakol.
26
And the sons of Yetur were Merith, Yaish, Alyo, and Pachoth; and the sons of Naphish were Ebed-Tamed, Abiyasaph and Mir; and the sons of Kedma were Calip, Tachti, and Omir; these were the children of Malchuth the wife of Yishma’el according to their families.
27
All these are the families of Yishma’el according to their generations, and they lived in those lands in which they had built themselves cities to this day.
28
And Rivqah the daughter of Bethuel, the wife of Avraham's son Yitschaq, was barren in those days, she had no offspring; and Yitschaq lived with his father in the land of Kena’an; and Yahuah was with Yitschaq; and Arpakhshad the son of Shem the son of Noach died in those days, in the forty-eighth year of the life of Yitschaq, and all the days that Arpakhshad lived were four hundred and thirty-eight years, and he died.
