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 adied in a good old age, an old man and full of years, and bwas gathered to his people.
9 And ahis sons Isaac and Ishmael buried him in the cave of bMachpelah, which is before Mamre, in the field of Ephron the son of Zohar the Hittite,
10 athe field which Abraham purchased from the sons of Heth. bThere 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 aBeer Lahai Roi.
The Families of Ishmael and Isaac
12 Now this is the agenealogy of Ishmael, Abraham’s son, whom Hagar the Egyptian, Sarah’s maidservant, bore to Abraham.
13 And athese 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, Naphish, and Kedemah.
16 These were the sons of Ishmael and these were their names, by their towns and their1 settlements, atwelve princes according to their nations.
17 These were the years of the life of Ishmael: one hundred and thirty-seven years; and ahe breathed his last and died, and was gathered to his people.
18 a(They dwelt from Havilah as far as Shur, which is east of Egypt as you go toward Assyria.) He1 died bin the presence of all his brethren.
