Suencuek 22
1 Hekah olka a om phoeiah Pathen loh Abraham te a noemcai tih, “Abraham,” a ti nah hatah “Kai ni he ue,” a ti nah.
And it came to pass after these things, that God, did prove Abraham, —and he said unto him, Abraham! And he said Behold me!
2 Te phoeiah, “Tahae ah na capa, na oingaih cangloeng, na lungnah Isaak te khuen lamtah Moriah khohmuen la namah cet laeh. Te phoeiah nang taengah ka thui bangla, tlang pakhat ah hmueihhlutnah la anih te pahoi nawn,” a ti nah.
And he said—Take, I pray thee, thy son, thine only one, whom thou lovest, even, Isaac, and get thee into the land of Moriah and cause him to ascend there as an ascending-sacrifice, on one of the mountains which I shall name unto thee.
3 Te dongah Abraham te mincang ah thoo tih laak te a khih. Amah taengkah cadong panit neh a capa Isaak te a khuen tih hmueihhlutnah thing te a aeh. Te phoeiah thoo tih Pathen loh anih taengah a thuinuet nah hmuen la cet.
So Abraham rose early in the morning, and saddled his ass, and took his two young men with him, and Isaac his son, and clave the pieces of wood for an ascending-sacrifice, and mounted and went his way unto the place which God had named to him.
4 A hnin thum dongah Abraham loh a mik a huel hatah khohla kah hmuen te a hmuh.
It was, on the third day, that Abraham lifted up his eyes, and saw the place afar off.
5 Te dongah Abraham loh cadong rhoi taengah, “Hiah laak neh namah poekah ana om uh dae. Kai neh camoe he kela ka cet rhoi vetih tho ka thueng rhoi phoeiah nangmih taengla ka bal rhoi ni,” a ti nah.
And Abraham said unto his young men—Tarry by yourselves here with the ass, but I and the young man must go yonder, —that we may bow ourselves down and return unto you.
6 Te vaengah Abraham loh hmueihhlutnah thing te a loh tih a capa Isaak a koh sak. Te phoeiah a kut dongah hmai neh tumcaca a khuen tih amamih rhoi te hmaih cet rhoi.
So Abraham took the pieces of wood for the ascending-sacrifice, and laid them on Isaac his son, and took in his own hand the fire and the knife, and they went on their way, both of them together.
7 Te vaengah Isaak loh a napa Abraham te a voek tih, “A pa,” a ti nah. Te vaengah, “Ka ca kai ka om he,” a ti nah hatah, hmai neh thing om dae hmueihhlutnah ham tu ta he,” a ti nah.
Then said Isaac unto Abraham his father, then said he; My father! And he said, Behold me, my son, And he said, Behold the fire, and the pieces of wood, —but where is the lamb, for an ascending-sacrifice?
8 Tedae Abraham loh, “Ka ca hmueihhlutnah ham tu te Pathen amah loh a hmuh bitni,” a ti nah tih amamih rhoi tah hmaih cet rhoi.
And Abraham said, God, will provide for himself the lamb for an ascending-sacrifice, my son! So they went on their way, both of them, together.
9 Te phoeiah Pathen loh anih taengah a uen nah hmuen te a pha rhoi. Te dongah Abraham loh hmueihtuk pahoi a suem tih thing a hong thil phoeiah a capa Isaak te a pin tih hmueihtuk sokah thing so ah a tloeng.
Then came they into the place which God had named to him, and Abraham built there the altar, and laid in order the pieces of wood, and bound Isaac his son, and laid him on the altar, above the pieces of wood.
10 Te phoeiah a capa te ngawn ham Abraham loh a kut a yueng tih tumcaca a yueh.
And Abraham put forth his hand, and took the knife, —to slay his son.
11 Tedae vaan lamkah BOEIPA puencawn loh anih te a khue tih, “Abraham, Abraham,” a ti nah vaengah “Kai ni he,” a ti nah.
Then called out unto him the messenger of Yahweh out of the heavens, and said. Abraham, Abraham! And he said Behold me!
12 Te vaengah, “Kai taeng lamkah na capa na oingaih cangloeng te na hloh pawt dongah na Pathen na rhih tila ka ming coeng. Te dongah camoe soah na kut hlah boel lamtah anih taengah ba khaw saii boeh,” a ti nah.
Then he said, Do not put forth thy hand unto the young man, neither do to him—anything at all, —for, now, know I that one who reverest God, thou art, when thou hast not withheld thy son, thine only one, from me.
13 Te dongah Abraham loh a mik a huel hatah a hnukkah kocak khuiah tutal a ki aka man te lawt a hmuh. Te dongah Abraham khaw cet tih tutal te a loh phoeiah a capa yueng ah hmueihhlutnah la a nawn.
And Abraham lifted up his eyes and looked, and lo! a ram, behind, caught in a thicket by his horns, and Abraham went, and took the ram, and caused him to ascend as an ascending-sacrifice instead of his son.
14 Te dongah Abraham loh a hmuen ming te, “BOEIPA phoe,” tila a sui. “Tihnin ah BOEIPA loh tlang ah a phoe sak bitni,” a ti rhoe pai.
So Abraham called the name of that place Yahweh-yireh, —as to which it is still said to-day, In the mountain of Yahweh, will provision be made.
15 Te phoeiah BOEIPA kah puencawn loh Abraham te vaan lamkah a pabae la a khue tih,
Then called out the messenger of Yahweh unto Abraham, —a second time out of the heavens;
16 “Hekah hno na saii vaengah na capa, na oingaih cangloeng te na hloh pawt dongah,
and said, By myself, have I sworn is the oracle of Yahweh, —Because thou hast done this thing, and hast not withheld thy son, thine only one,
17 nang yoethen khuikah yoethen rhep kan paek tih na tiingan te vaan kah aisi neh tuitunli palang laivin bangla ka pungtai rhoe ka pungtai sak ni. Te vaengah na tiingan loh a thunkha vongka te a pang ni.
That I will, richly bless, thee, and, abundantly multiply, thy seed, as the stars of the heavens, and as the sand which is on the lip of the sea, —that thy seed may take possession of the gate of his foes:
18 Te phoeiah kai ol te na ngai dongah nang kah tiingan rhang neh diklai namtom boeih loh a yoethen uh ni tila BOEIPA olphong neh kamah loh ka toemngam coeng,” a ti nah.
So shall all the nations of the earth bless themselves in thy seed, —Because thou didst hearken unto my voice.
19 Tedae cadong rhoi taengla Abraham a bal phoeikah aka thoo uh te Beersheba la tun a pawk uh dongah Abraham loh Beersheba ah kho a sak.
So Abraham returned unto his young men, and they mounted, and went on their way together unto Beer-sheba, —and Abraham dwelt in Beer-sheba.
20 Tahae kah olka a om phoeiah Abraham taengah,” Na manuca Nakhaw ham Milkah loh ca tongpa,
And it came to pass after these things, that it was told Abraham, saying, —Behold! Milcah—she also, hath borne sons, to Nahor thy brother:
21 A caming la Uz tih a mana Buz neh Aram napa Kemuel khaw,
Uz his firstborn and Buz his brother, —and Kemuel, father of Aram—
22 Kesed khaw, Hazo khaw, Pildash khaw, Jidlap neh Bethuel te khaw a sak van ne,” a ti nah uh tih a thui pah.
and Chesed and Hazo, and Pildash, and Jidlaph, —and Bethuel;
23 Te dongah Milkah loh Abraham kah a manuca Nakhaw ham tongpa parhet a sak pah. Rebekah he Bethuel loh a sak.
And, Bethuel, hath begotten Rebekah, —These eight, hath Milcah borne to Nahor brother of Abraham.
24 Te phoeiah a yula, a ming ah Reumah loh Tebah, Gaham, Tahash neh Maakah a sak pah bal.
And his concubine, whose name was Reumah, she also, hath borne Tebah and Gaham, and Tahash, and Maacah.
