Genesis 22
1 To tiah hmuen oh pacoengah, Sithaw mah Abraham to tanoek, anih khaeah, Abraham tiah kawk; to naah anih mah, Khenah, hae ah ka oh, tiah a naa.
It came about after these things that God tested Abraham. He said to him, “Abraham!” Abraham said, “Here I am.”
2 To pacoengah Sithaw mah, Na palung duek moe, maeto khue na tawnh ih na capa, Issak to hoi ah loe, Moriah prae ah caeh haih ah; kang patuek han ih mae ah kai khaeah nang tathlang hanah hmai angbawnhaih sah ah, tiah a naa.
Then God said, “Take your son, your only son, whom you love, Isaac, and go to the land of Moriah. Offer him there as a burnt offering upon one of the mountains there, which I will tell you about.”
3 Abraham loe khawnbang khawnthaw ah angthawk moe, laa hrang nuiah hmuenmae to a thuengh; a capa Issak hoi nawnto thendoeng hnetto a kawk moe, hmai angbawnhaih sak hanah, thing aek pacoengah, Sithaw mah thuih ih mae nuiah a caeh.
So Abraham rose early in the morning, saddled his donkey, and took two of his young men with him, along with Isaac his son. He cut the wood for the burnt offering, then set out on his journey to the place that God had told him about.
4 Ni thumto naah to ahmuen to, Abraham mah kangthla hoiah khet.
On the third day Abraham looked up and saw the place afar off.
5 Abraham mah thendoeng hnik khaeah, Nang hnik loe haeah laa hrang to toep hoih; kai loe ka caa hoi nawnto ka caeh moe, Sithaw ka bok hoi pacoengah, nang hnik khaeah kang zoh let han, tiah a naa.
Abraham said to his young men, “Stay here with the donkey, and I and the lad will go over there. We will worship and come again to you.”
6 Abraham loe hmai angbawnhaih sak hanah thing to cop moe, a capa Issak to aputsak; hmai hoi haita to a ban ah sinh moe, nawnto a caeh hoi.
Then Abraham took the wood for the burnt offering and put it on Isaac his son. He took in his own hand the fire and the knife; and they went both of them together.
7 Issak mah ampa Abraham khaeah, Kam pa, tiah kawk. Abraham mah, Ka capa, haeah ka oh, tiah a naa. Issak mah, Hmai hoi thing loe a sin hoi boeh, toe hmai angbawnhaih sak hanah tuu caa loe naa ah maw oh? tiah a naa.
Isaac spoke to Abraham his father and said, “My father,” and he said, “Here I am, my son.” He said, “See, here is the fire and the wood, but where is the lamb for the burnt offering?”
8 Abraham mah, Ka capa, Hmai angbawnhaih sak hanah Sithaw angmah to tuu caa ah angpaek tih hmang, tiah a naa. To pacoengah nawnto caeh hoi poe.
Abraham said, “God himself will provide the lamb for the burnt offering, my son.” So they went on, both of them together.
9 Sithaw mah thuih ih mae to phak hoi naah, Abraham mah to ahmuen ah hmaicam to sak, a nuiah thing to pahong moe, a capa Issak to qui hoi taoengh pacoengah, hmaicam nui ih thing nuiah pasongh.
When they came to the place that God had told him about, Abraham built an altar there and laid the wood on it. Then he bound Isaac his son, and laid him on the altar, on top of the wood.
10 To pacoengah Abraham mah ban payangh moe, a capa to hum hanah haita to a lak.
Abraham reached out with his hand and took up the knife to kill his son.
11 To naah van bang hoiah Angraeng ih van kami mah anih to, Abraham! Abraham! tiah kawk. Anih mah, Haeah ka oh, tiah a naa.
Then the angel of Yahweh called to him from heaven and said, “Abraham, Abraham!” and he said, “Here I am.”
12 Anih mah, Nawkta nuiah na ban phok hmah; anih nuiah tidoeh sah hmah; maeto khue na tawn ih na capa mataeng doeh paawthaih na tawn ai pongah, Sithaw na zit, tito ka panoek boeh, tiah a naa.
He said, “Do not lay your hand upon the lad, nor do anything to harm him, for now I know that you fear God, seeing that you have not withheld your son, your only son, from me.”
13 Abraham mah khet moe, doeng tahang naah, khenah, phroh kapring thungah takii kaman caeng, tuu tae to a hnuk; Abraham loe caeh moe, tuu tae to lak pacoengah, a capa zuengah hmai angbawnhaih to a sak.
Abraham looked up and behold, behind him was a ram caught in the bushes by his horns. Abraham went and took the ram and offered him up as a burnt offering instead of his son.
14 To pongah Abraham mah to ahmuen to, Jehovah-jireh, tiah kawk; vaihni ni khoek to, Angraeng ih mae nuiah loe Angraeng mah na paek tih, tiah a thuih o.
So Abraham called that place, “Yahweh will provide,” and it is said to this day, “On the mountain of Yahweh it will be provided.”
15 Van kami ih Angraeng mah Abraham to van hoiah kawk let bae.
The angel of Yahweh called to Abraham a second time from heaven
16 Nang loe maeto khue na tawnh ih na capa mataeng doeh paawthaih na tawn ai pongah, kaimah hoi kaimah lokkamhaih ka sak boeh, tiah Angraeng mah thuih;
and said—this is Yahweh's declaration—by myself I have sworn that because you have done this thing, and have not withheld your son, your only son,
17 tahamhoihaih kang paek moe, na caanawk to van ih cakaeh hoi tuipui taeng ih savuet zetto kang pungsak han; na caanawk mah misa ih vangpui khongkha to toep o tih;
I will surely bless you and I will greatly multiply your descendants as the stars of the heavens, and as the sand which is upon the seashore; and your descendants will possess the gate of their enemies.
18 ka lok na tahngaih pongah, na caanawk rang hoiah long nui ih kaminawk boih tahamhoihaih hnu o tih, tiah a naa.
Through your offspring all the nations of the earth will be blessed, because you have obeyed my voice.”
19 To pacoengah Abraham loe angmah ih thendoeng hnik khaeah amlaem let; nihcae loe amsak o moe, Beersheba ah caeh o; Abraham loe Beersheba ah khosak.
So Abraham returned to his young men, and they departed and went together to Beersheba, and he lived at Beersheba.
20 To tiah hmuennawk oh pacoengah Abraham khaeah, Khenah, nam nawk Nahor ih zu, Milkah loe caa sak mangh;
It came about after these things that Abraham was told, “Milkah has borne children, as well, to your brother Nahor.”
21 Huz loe calu ah oh, amnawk Buz, Aram ih ampa Kemuel,
They were Uz his firstborn, Buz his brother, Kemuel the father of Aram,
22 Khesed, Hazo, Pildash, Jidlaph hoi Bethuel cae to sak, tiah a thuih pae o.
Kesed, Hazo, Pildash, Jidlaph, and Bethuel.
23 Bethuel mah Rebekah to sak; Milkah mah Abraham amnawk Nahor hanah capa nongpa tazetto a sak pae.
Bethuel became the father of Rebekah. These were the eight children that Milkah bore to Nahor, Abraham's brother.
24 A zula Reumah mah doeh Tebah, Gaham, Thahash hoi Maakah to sak pae.
His concubine, whose name was Reumah, also bore Tebah, Gaham, Tahash, and Maacah.
