 [1 ](/kjv/genesis/25/1) Then again Abraham took a wife, and her name *was* Keturah.

 [3 ](/kjv/genesis/25/3) And Jokshan begat Sheba, and Dedan. And the sons of Dedan were Asshurim, and Letushim, and Leummim.
 
 [4 ](/kjv/genesis/25/4) And the sons of Midian; Ephah, and Epher, and Hanoch, and Abidah, and Eldaah. All these *were* the children of Keturah.
 
 [5 ](/kjv/genesis/25/5) ¶ And Abraham gave all that he had unto Isaac.
 
 [6 ](/kjv/genesis/25/6) But unto the sons of the concubines, which Abraham had, Abraham gave gifts, and sent them away from Isaac his son, while he yet lived, eastward, unto the east country.
 
 [7 ](/kjv/genesis/25/7) And these *are* the days of the years of Abraham’s life which he lived, an hundred threescore and fifteen years.
 
 [8 ](/kjv/genesis/25/8) Then Abraham gave up the ghost, and died in a good old age, an old man, and full *of years;* and was gathered to his people.
 
 [9 ](/kjv/genesis/25/9) And his sons Isaac and Ishmael buried him in the cave of Machpelah, in the field of Ephron the son of Zohar the Hittite, which *is* before Mamre;

 [11 ](/kjv/genesis/25/11) ¶ And it came to pass after the death of Abraham, that God blessed his son Isaac; and Isaac dwelt by the well Lahai-roi.
 
 [12 ](/kjv/genesis/25/12) ¶ Now these *are* the generations of Ishmael, Abraham’s son, whom Hagar the Egyptian, Sarah’s handmaid, bare unto Abraham:
 
 [13 ](/kjv/genesis/25/13) And these *are* the names of the sons of Ishmael, by their names, according to their generations: the firstborn of Ishmael, Nebajoth; and Kedar, and Adbeel, and Mibsam,
 
 [14 ](/kjv/genesis/25/14) And Mishma, and Dumah, and Massa,
 
 [15 ](/kjv/genesis/25/15) Hadar, and Tema, Jetur, Naphish, and Kedemah:*
 
 [16 ](/kjv/genesis/25/16) These *are* the sons of Ishmael, and these *are* their names, by their towns, and by their castles; twelve princes according to their nations.
 
 [17 ](/kjv/genesis/25/17) And these *are* the years of the life of Ishmael, an hundred and thirty and seven years: and he gave up the ghost and died; and was gathered unto his people.
 
 [18 ](/kjv/genesis/25/18) And they dwelt from Havilah unto Shur, that *is* before Egypt, as thou goest toward Assyria: *and* he died in the presence of all his brethren.*
