Mui 22
1 Eso enoga, Gode da A: ibalaha: me ea hou adoba: ma: ne, ema amane sia: i, “A: ibalaha: me!” A: ibalaha: me da bu adole i, “Na wea!”
After these things occurred, God tested Abraham, and he said to him, “Abraham, Abraham.” And he answered, “Here I am.”
2 Gode da ema amane sia: i, “Defea! Di da mano afadafa fawane gala. Amo dia dogolegei mano Aisage lale, oule asili, Molaia sogega doaga: ma. Goe sogega Na da goumi dima olelemu. Amo heda: le, dia mano gobele salasu hou hamoma: ne, medole legele, laluga gobele salima.”
He said to him: “Take your only begotten son Isaac, whom you love, and go into the land of vision. And there you shall offer him as a holocaust upon one of the mountains, which I will show to you.”
3 Golale hahabe, A:ibalaha: me da nedigili, liligi ea dougi da: iya ligisili, gobele salasu hou hamomusa: lalu ifa habele, ea mano amola hawa: hamosu ayeligi aduna, Molaia sogega doaga: musa: oule asi.
And so Abraham, getting up in the night, harnessed his donkey, taking with him two youths, and his son Isaac. And when he had cut wood for the holocaust, he traveled toward the place, as God had instructed him.
4 Eso udiana ahoanu, A:ibalaha: me da amo sogebi sedagawane dialebe ba: i.
Then, on the third day, lifting up his eyes, he saw the place at a distance.
5 Amalalu, A:ibalaha: me da ea hawa: hamosu dunu elama amane sia: i, “Ali gui esaloma! Dougi ouligima! Na amola nagofe da amo sogega Godema nodone sia: ne gadolalu, bu misunu.”
And he said to his servants: “Wait here with the donkey. I and the boy will hurry further ahead to that place. After we have worshipped, will return to you.”
6 Amalalu, A:ibalaha: me da lalu ifa habei amo Aisagema gisa masa: ne i. A: ibalaha: me da lalu dasu amola gobihei gisa asili, ela da goumiba: le heda: i. Ela da gilisili ahoana,
He also took the wood for the holocaust, and he imposed it upon his son Isaac. And he himself carried in his hands fire and a sword. And as the two continued on together,
7 Aisage da edama amane sia: i, “Ada!” A: ibalaha: me da bu adole i, “Nagofe! Adi laha?” Aisage da amane sia: i, “Laludai amola lalu habei diala. Be sibi mano, gobele salasu hou hamoma: ne amo da habila: ?”
Isaac said to his father, “My father.” And he answered, “What do you want, son?” “Behold,” he said, “fire and wood. Where is the victim for the holocaust?”
8 A: ibalaha: me da bu adole i, “Nagofe! Gode Hi da ani gobele salimusa: , sibi mano imunu!” Amalalu, ela da gilisili bu ahoanu.
But Abraham said, “God himself will provide the victim for the holocaust, my son.” Thus they continued on together.
9 Elea da Gode Ea musa: adoi sogebiga doaga: loba, A:ibalaha: me da gelega oloda hamone, lalu habei oloda da: iya ligisili, ea mano ea emo amola lobo la: gili, amo da: iya ligisi.
And they came to the place that God had shown to him. There he built an altar, and he set the wood in order upon it. And when he had bound his son Isaac, he laid him on the altar upon the pile of wood.
10 Amalalu, A:ibalaha: me da ea mano medole legemusa: , gobihei gaguia gadoi.
And he reached out his hand and took hold of the sword, in order to sacrifice his son.
11 Be muagado, Hina Gode Ea a: igele dunu da gagabole ha: giwane wele sia: i, “A: ibalaha: me! A: ibalaha: me!” E bu adole i, “Na wea!”
And behold, an Angel of the Lord called out from heaven, saying, “Abraham, Abraham.” And he answered, “Here I am.”
12 A: igele da amane sia: i, “Dia mano mae medoma! E se nabima: ne mae fama! Di da dia mano Nama imunu hame hihi galu. Amaiba: le, di da Godema beda: i amola nabasu hou dawa: , amo Na da ba: i dagoi.”
And he said to him, “Do not extend your hand over the boy, and do not do anything to him. Now I know that you fear God, since you have not spared your only begotten son for my sake.”
13 Amalalu, A:ibalaha: me da ea si ba: le ga: le, sibi gawali amo ea hono da ifa amoga lala: gi lelebe ba: i. Amaiba: le, e da ea mano mae medole, amo sibi lale, medole legele, gobele salasu hamoi.
Abraham lifted up his eyes, and he saw behind his back a ram among the thorns, caught by the horns, which he took and offered as a holocaust, instead of his son.
14 A: ibalaha: me da amo sogebi ‘Yehoufayaila’ dio asuli. Goe dio dawaloma: ne da, “Hina Gode Hi da hahawane imunu!” Wali eso amola, dunu da amane sia: sa, “Hina Gode da Hi goumi da: iya hahawane imunu.”
And he called the name of that place: ‘The Lord Sees.’ Thus, even to this day, it is said: ‘On the mountain, the Lord will see.’
15 Amalalu, Gode Ea a: igele dunu da Hebeneganini A: ibalaha: mema bu sia: i,
Then the Angel of the Lord called out to Abraham a second time from heaven, saying:
16 “Di da Na sia: nabawane hamobeba: le, amola dia dogolegei mano Nama imunusa: hame hihiba: le, Na da Na Dioba: le agoane ilegele sia: sa. Na da dima bagadewane hahawane dogolegele ilegemu.
“By my own self, I have sworn, says the Lord. Because you have done this thing, and have not spared your only begotten son for my sake,
17 Na da digaga fi mano ilia da gasumuni ilia idi defele, amola sa: iboso idi defei defele hamomu. Dia fi da ilia ha lai dunu amo hasalasimu.
I will bless you, and I will multiply your offspring like the stars of heaven, and like the sand which is on the seashore. Your offspring will possess the gates of their enemies.
18 Di da Na hamoma: ne sia: nababeba: le, osobo bagade fifi asi gala huluane, da Nama Na da di hahawane dogolegele ilegei defele, ilima hahawane dogolegele ilegesu ima: ne adole ba: mu.”
And in your offspring, all the nations of the earth will be blessed, because you obeyed my voice.”
19 Amalalu, A:ibalaha: me da ea hawa: hamosu dunu elama buhagili, ilia gilisili Biasiba moilaiga asi. Amola A: ibalaha: me da Biasiba amo ganodini esalu.
Abraham returned to his servants, and they went to Beersheba together, and he lived there.
20 Fa: no, dunu eno da A: ibalaha: mema amane sia: i, “Miliga da mano lai. E da dia eya Na: iho ema dunu mano godoane lai.
After these things occurred, it was reported to Abraham that Milcah, likewise, had borne sons for his brother Nahor:
21 Magobo dunu mano da Use. Ea eyalali da Buse, Gemuele (ea mano da Alame),
Uz, the firstborn, and Buz, his brother, and Kemuel, the father of the Syrians,
22 Gisede, Ha: iso, Bilada: se, Yidala: fe amola Bediuele.
and Chesed, and Hazo, likewise Pildash, and Jidlaph,
23 Bediuele da uda mano lai, amo Lebega. Amo dunu mano godoane ilia ame da Miliga, amola ilia eda da A: ibalaha: me eya amo Na: iho.
as well as Bethuel, of whom was born Rebekah. These eight Milcah bore for Nahor, the brother of Abraham.
24 Na: iho ea gidisedagi uda amo ea dio amo Liuma, da dunu manolali lai. Ilia dio da Diba, Ga: iha: me, Da: iha: se amola Ma: iaga.
In truth, his concubine, named Reumah, bore Tebah, and Gaham, and Tahash, and Maacah.
