創世記 22
1 這些事以後，天主試探亞巴郎說：「亞巴郎! 」他答說：「我在這裏。」
And it came to pass after these things, that God did tempt Abraham, and said unto him, Abraham: and he said, Behold, here I am.
2 天主說：「帶你心愛的獨生子依撒格往摩黎雅地方去，在我所要指給你的一座山上，將他獻為全燔祭。」
And he said, Take now your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and get you into the land of Moriah; and offer him there for a burnt offering upon one of the mountains which I will tell you of.
3 亞巴郎次日清早起來，備好驢，帶了兩個僕人和自己的兒子依撒格，劈好為全燔祭用的木柴，就起身往天主指給他的地方去了。
And Abraham rose up early in the morning, and saddled his ass, and took two of his young men with him, and Isaac his son, and clave the wood for the burnt offering, and rose up, and went unto the place of which God had told him.
4 第三天，亞巴郎舉目遠遠看見了那個地方，
Then on the third day Abraham lifted up his eyes, and saw the place far off.
5 就對僕人說：「你們同驢在這裏等候，我和孩子要到那邊去朝拜，以後就回到你們這裏來。」
And Abraham said unto his young men, Abide all of you here with the ass; and I and the lad will go yonder and worship, and come again to you.
6 亞巴郎將為全燔祭用的木柴，放在兒子依撒格的肩上，自己手中拿著刀和火，兩人一同前行。
And Abraham took the wood of the burnt offering, and laid it upon Isaac his son; and he took the fire in his hand, and a knife; and they went both of them together.
7 路上依撒格對父親亞巴郎說：「阿爸! 」他答說：「我兒，我在這裏。」依撒格說：「看，這裏有火有柴，但是那裏有作全燔祭的羔羊﹖」
And Isaac spoke unto Abraham his father, and said, My father: and he said, Here am I, my son. And he said, Behold the fire and the wood: but where is the lamb for a burnt offering?
8 亞巴郎答說：「我兒! 天主自會照料作全燔祭的羔羊。」於是二人再繼續一同前行。
And Abraham said, My son, God will provide himself a lamb for a burnt offering: so they went both of them together.
9 當他們到了天主指給他的地方，亞巴郎便在那裏築了一座祭壇，擺好木柴，將兒子依撒格捆好，放在祭壇上的木柴上。
And they came to the place which God had told him of; and Abraham built an altar there, and laid the wood in order, and bound Isaac his son, and laid him on the altar upon the wood.
10 亞巴郎正伸手舉刀要宰獻自己的兒子時，
And Abraham stretched forth his hand, and took the knife to slay his son.
11 上主的使者從天上對他喊說：「亞巴郎! 亞巴郎! 」他答說：「我在這裏。」
And the angel of the LORD called unto him out of heaven, and said, Abraham, Abraham: and he said, Here am I.
12 使者說：「不可在這孩子身上下手，不要傷害他! 我現在知道你實在敬畏天主，因為你為了我竟連你的獨生子也不顧惜。」
And he said, Lay not your hand upon the lad, neither do you any thing unto him: for now I know that you fear God, seeing you have not withheld your son, your only son from me.
13 亞巴郎舉目一望，見有一隻公綿羊，兩角纏在灌木中，遂前去取了那隻公綿羊，代替自己的兒子，獻為全燔祭。
And Abraham lifted up his eyes, and looked, and behold behind him a ram caught in a thicket by his horns: and Abraham went and took the ram, and offered him up for a burnt offering in the position of his son.
14 亞巴郎給那地方起名叫「上主自會照料。」直到今日人還說：「在山上，上主自會照料。」
And Abraham called the name of that place Jehovahjireh: as it is said to this day, In the mount of the LORD it shall be seen.
15 上主的使者由天上又呼喚亞巴郎說：「
And the angel of the LORD called unto Abraham out of heaven the second time,
16 我指自己起誓，－－上主的斷語，－－因為你作了這事，沒有顧惜你的獨生子，
And said, By myself have I sworn, says the LORD, for because you have done this thing, and have not withheld your son, your only son:
17 我必多多祝福你，使你的後裔繁多，如天上的星辰，如海邊的沙粒。你的後裔必佔領他們仇敵的城門；
That in blessing I will bless you, and in multiplying I will multiply your seed as the stars of the heaven, and as the sand which is upon the sea shore; and your seed shall possess the gate of his enemies;
18 地上萬民要因你的後裔蒙受祝福，因為你聽從了我的話。」
And in your seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed; because you have obeyed my voice.
19 亞巴郎回到自己僕人那裏，一同起身回了貝爾舍巴，遂住在貝爾舍巴。
So Abraham returned unto his young men, and they rose up and went together to Beersheba; and Abraham dwelt at Beersheba.
20 這些事以後，有人告訴亞巴郎說：「米耳加也給你的兄弟納曷爾生了兒子：
And it came to pass after these things, that it was told Abraham, saying, Behold, Milcah, she has also born children unto your brother Nahor;
21 長子伍茲，他的弟弟步次、阿蘭的父親刻慕耳、
Huz his firstborn, and Buz his brother, and Kemuel the father of Aram,
22 革色得、哈左、丕耳達士、依德拉夫和貝突耳：－－
And Chesed, and Hazo, and Pildash, and Jidlaph, and Bethuel.
23 貝突耳生了黎貝加，－－這八人都是米耳加給亞巴郎的兄弟納曷爾生的兒子。
And Bethuel brings forth Rebekah: these eight Milcah did bear to Nahor, Abraham's brother.
24 此外他的妾名叫勒烏瑪的，給他生了特巴黑、加罕、塔哈士和瑪阿加。
And his concubine, whose name was Reumah, she bare also Tebah, and Gaham, and Thahash, and Maachah.
