اَلتَّكْوِينُ 22
| وَحَدَثَ بَعْدَ هَذِهِ ٱلْأُمُورِ أَنَّ ٱللهَ ٱمْتَحَنَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، فَقَالَ لَهُ: «يَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ!». فَقَالَ: «هَأَنَذَا». | ١ 1 |
And it comes to pass after these things that God has tried Abraham and says to him, “Abraham”; and he says, “Here I [am].”
| فَقَالَ: «خُذِ ٱبْنَكَ وَحِيدَكَ، ٱلَّذِي تُحِبُّهُ، إِسْحَاقَ، وَٱذْهَبْ إِلَى أَرْضِ ٱلْمُرِيَّا، وَأَصْعِدْهُ هُنَاكَ مُحْرَقَةً عَلَى أَحَدِ ٱلْجِبَالِ ٱلَّذِي أَقُولُ لَكَ». | ٢ 2 |
And He says, “Now take your son, your only one, whom you have loved, even Isaac, and go for yourself to the land of Moriah, and cause him to ascend there for a burnt-offering on one of the mountains of which I speak to you.”
| فَبَكَّرَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ صَبَاحًا وَشَدَّ عَلَى حِمَارِهِ، وَأَخَذَ ٱثْنَيْنِ مِنْ غِلْمَانِهِ مَعَهُ، وَإِسْحَاقَ ٱبْنَهُ، وَشَقَّقَ حَطَبًا لِمُحْرَقَةٍ، وَقَامَ وَذَهَبَ إِلَى ٱلْمَوْضِعِ ٱلَّذِي قَالَ لَهُ ٱللهُ. | ٣ 3 |
And Abraham rises early in the morning, and saddles his donkey, and takes two of his young men with him, and his son Isaac, and he cleaves the wood of the burnt-offering, and rises and goes to the place of which God has spoken to him.
| وَفِي ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلثَّالِثِ رَفَعَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ عَيْنَيْهِ وَأَبْصَرَ ٱلْمَوْضِعَ مِنْ بَعِيدٍ، | ٤ 4 |
On the third day—Abraham lifts up his eyes, and sees the place from afar;
| فَقَالَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ لِغُلَامَيْهِ: «ٱجْلِسَا أَنْتُمَا هَهُنَا مَعَ ٱلْحِمَارِ، وَأَمَّا أَنَا وَٱلْغُلَامُ فَنَذْهَبُ إِلَى هُنَاكَ وَنَسْجُدُ، ثُمَّ نَرْجِعُ إِلَيْكُمَا». | ٥ 5 |
and Abraham says to his young men, “Remain by yourselves here with the donkey, and I and the youth go over there and worship, and return to you.”
| فَأَخَذَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ حَطَبَ ٱلْمُحْرَقَةِ وَوَضَعَهُ عَلَى إِسْحَاقَ ٱبْنِهِ، وَأَخَذَ بِيَدِهِ ٱلنَّارَ وَٱلسِّكِّينَ. فَذَهَبَا كِلَاهُمَا مَعًا. | ٦ 6 |
And Abraham takes the wood of the burnt-offering, and places on his son Isaac, and he takes in his hand the fire, and the knife; and they go on both of them together.
| وَكَلَّمَ إِسْحَاقُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ أَبِاهُ وَقَالَ: «يَا أَبِي!». فَقَالَ: «هَأَنَذَا يَا ٱبْنِي». فَقَالَ: «هُوَذَا ٱلنَّارُ وَٱلْحَطَبُ، وَلَكِنْ أَيْنَ ٱلْخَرُوفُ لِلْمُحْرَقَةِ؟». | ٧ 7 |
And Isaac speaks to his father Abraham and says, “My father,” and he says, “Here I [am], my son.” And he says, “Behold, the fire and the wood, and where the lamb for a burnt-offering?”
| فَقَالَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ: «ٱللهُ يَرَى لَهُ ٱلْخَرُوفَ لِلْمُحْرَقَةِ يَا ٱبْنِي». فَذَهَبَا كِلَاهُمَا مَعًا. | ٨ 8 |
And Abraham says, “God provides for Himself the lamb for a burnt-offering, my son”; and they go on both of them together.
| فَلَمَّا أَتَيَا إِلَى ٱلْمَوْضِعِ ٱلَّذِي قَالَ لَهُ ٱللهُ، بَنَى هُنَاكَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ ٱلْمَذْبَحَ وَرَتَّبَ ٱلْحَطَبَ وَرَبَطَ إِسْحَاقَ ٱبْنَهُ وَوَضَعَهُ عَلَى ٱلْمَذْبَحِ فَوْقَ ٱلْحَطَبِ. | ٩ 9 |
And they come to the place of which God has spoken to him, and there Abraham builds the altar, and arranges the wood, and binds his son Isaac, and places him on the altar above the wood;
| ثُمَّ مَدَّ إِبْرَاهِيمُ يَدَهُ وَأَخَذَ ٱلسِّكِّينَ لِيَذْبَحَ ٱبْنَهُ. | ١٠ 10 |
and Abraham puts forth his hand, and takes the knife—to slaughter his son.
| فَنَادَاهُ مَلَاكُ ٱلرَّبِّ مِنَ ٱلسَّمَاءِ وَقَالَ: «إِبْرَاهِيمُ! إِبْرَاهِيمُ!». فَقَالَ: «هَأَنَذَا». | ١١ 11 |
And the Messenger of YHWH calls to him from the heavens and says, “Abraham, Abraham”; and he says, “Here I [am]”;
| فَقَالَ: «لَا تَمُدَّ يَدَكَ إِلَى ٱلْغُلَامِ وَلَا تَفْعَلْ بِهِ شَيْئًا، لِأَنِّي ٱلْآنَ عَلِمْتُ أَنَّكَ خَائِفٌ ٱللهَ، فَلَمْ تُمْسِكِ ٱبْنَكَ وَحِيدَكَ عَنِّي». | ١٢ 12 |
and He says, “Do not put forth your hand to the youth, nor do anything to him, for now I have known that you are fearing God, and have not withheld your son, your only one, from Me.”
| فَرَفَعَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ عَيْنَيْهِ وَنَظَرَ وَإِذَا كَبْشٌ وَرَاءَهُ مُمْسَكًا فِي ٱلْغَابَةِ بِقَرْنَيْهِ، فَذَهَبَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ وَأَخَذَ ٱلْكَبْشَ وَأَصْعَدَهُ مُحْرَقَةً عِوَضًا عَنِ ٱبْنِهِ. | ١٣ 13 |
And Abraham lifts up his eyes, and looks, and behold, a ram behind, seized in a thicket by its horns; and Abraham goes, and takes the ram, and causes it to ascend for a burnt-offering instead of his son;
| فَدَعَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ ٱسْمَ ذَلِكَ ٱلْمَوْضِعِ «يَهْوَهْ يِرْأَهْ». حَتَّى إِنَّهُ يُقَالُ ٱلْيَوْمَ: «فِي جَبَلِ ٱلرَّبِّ يُرَى». | ١٤ 14 |
and Abraham calls the name of that place “YHWH-Jireh,” because it is said this day in the mountain, “YHWH provides.”
| وَنَادَى مَلَاكُ ٱلرَّبِّ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ثَانِيَةً مِنَ ٱلسَّمَاءِ | ١٥ 15 |
And the Messenger of YHWH calls to Abraham a second time from the heavens,
| وَقَالَ: «بِذَاتِي أَقْسَمْتُ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ، أَنِّي مِنْ أَجْلِ أَنَّكَ فَعَلْتَ هَذَا ٱلْأَمْرَ، وَلَمْ تُمْسِكِ ٱبْنَكَ وَحِيدَكَ، | ١٦ 16 |
and says, “I have sworn by Myself—a declaration of YHWH—that because you have done this thing, and have not withheld your son, your only one,
| أُبَارِكُكَ مُبَارَكَةً، وَأُكَثِّرُ نَسْلَكَ تَكْثِيرًا كَنُجُومِ ٱلسَّمَاءِ وَكَالرَّمْلِ ٱلَّذِي عَلَى شَاطِئِ ٱلْبَحْرِ، وَيَرِثُ نَسْلُكَ بَابَ أَعْدَائِهِ، | ١٧ 17 |
that blessing I bless you, and multiplying I multiply your seed as stars of the heavens, and as sand which [is] on the seashore; and your Seed possesses the gate of His enemies;
| وَيَتَبَارَكُ فِي نَسْلِكَ جَمِيعُ أُمَمِ ٱلْأَرْضِ، مِنْ أَجْلِ أَنَّكَ سَمِعْتَ لِقَوْلِي». | ١٨ 18 |
and all nations of the earth have blessed themselves in your Seed, because you have listened to My voice.”
| ثُمَّ رَجَعَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ إِلَى غُلَامَيْهِ، فَقَامُوا وَذَهَبُوا مَعًا إِلَى بِئْرِ سَبْعٍ. وَسَكَنَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ فِي بِئْرِ سَبْعٍ. | ١٩ 19 |
And Abraham turns back to his young men, and they rise and go together to Beer-Sheba; and Abraham dwells in Beer-Sheba.
| وَحَدَثَ بَعْدَ هَذِهِ ٱلْأُمُورِ أَنَّ إِبْرَاهِيمَ أُخْبِرَ وَقِيلَ لَهُ: «هُوَذَا مِلْكَةُ قَدْ وَلَدَتْ هِيَ أَيْضًا بَنِينَ لِنَاحُورَ أَخِيكَ: | ٢٠ 20 |
And it comes to pass after these things that it is declared to Abraham, saying, “Behold, Milcah has borne, even she, sons to your brother Nahor:
| عُوصًا بِكْرَهُ، وَبُوزًا أَخَاهُ، وَقَمُوئِيلَ أَبَا أَرَامَ، | ٢١ 21 |
his firstborn Huz, and his brother Buz; and Kemuel father of Aram,
| وَكَاسَدَ وَحَزْوًا وَفِلْدَاشَ وَيِدْلَافَ وَبَتُوئِيلَ». | ٢٢ 22 |
and Chesed, and Hazo, and Pildash, and Jidlaph, and Bethuel;
| وَوَلَدَ بَتُوئِيلُ رِفْقَةَ. هَؤُلَاءِ ٱلثَّمَانِيَةُ وَلَدَتْهُمْ مِلْكَةُ لِنَاحُورَ أَخِي إِبْرَاهِيمَ. | ٢٣ 23 |
and Bethuel has begotten Rebekah”; Milcah has borne these eight to Nahor, Abraham’s brother;
| وَأَمَّا سُرِّيَّتُهُ، وَٱسْمُهَا رَؤُومَةُ، فَوَلَدَتْ هِيَ أَيْضًا: طَابَحَ وَجَاحَمَ وَتَاحَشَ وَمَعْكَةَ. | ٢٤ 24 |
and his concubine, whose name [is] Reumah, she also has borne Tebah, and Gaham, and Tahash, and Maachah.
