創世記 22
1 這些事以後，上帝要試驗亞伯拉罕，就呼叫他說：「亞伯拉罕！」他說：「我在這裏。」
Some time later God tested Abraham and said to him, “Abraham!” “Here I am,” he answered.
2 上帝說：「你帶着你的兒子，就是你獨生的兒子，你所愛的以撒，往摩利亞地去，在我所要指示你的山上，把他獻為燔祭。」
“Take your son,” God said, “your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah. Offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains, which I will show you.”
3 亞伯拉罕清早起來，備上驢，帶着兩個僕人和他兒子以撒，也劈好了燔祭的柴，就起身往上帝所指示他的地方去了。
So Abraham got up early the next morning, saddled his donkey, and took along two of his servants and his son Isaac. He split the wood for a burnt offering and set out for the place God had designated.
4 到了第三日，亞伯拉罕舉目遠遠地看見那地方。
On the third day Abraham looked up and saw the place in the distance.
5 亞伯拉罕對他的僕人說：「你們和驢在此等候，我與童子往那裏去拜一拜，就回到你們這裏來。」
“Stay here with the donkey,” Abraham told his servants. “The boy and I will go over there to worship, and then we will return to you.”
6 亞伯拉罕把燔祭的柴放在他兒子以撒身上，自己手裏拿着火與刀；於是二人同行。
Abraham took the wood for the burnt offering and placed it on his son Isaac. He himself carried the fire and the sacrificial knife, and the two of them walked on together.
7 以撒對他父親亞伯拉罕說：「父親哪！」亞伯拉罕說：「我兒，我在這裏。」以撒說：「請看，火與柴都有了，但燔祭的羊羔在哪裏呢？」
Then Isaac said to his father Abraham, “My father!” “Here I am, my son,” he replied. “The fire and the wood are here,” said Isaac, “but where is the lamb for the burnt offering?”
8 亞伯拉罕說：「我兒，上帝必自己預備作燔祭的羊羔。」於是二人同行。
Abraham answered, “God Himself will provide the lamb for the burnt offering, my son.” And the two walked on together.
9 他們到了上帝所指示的地方，亞伯拉罕在那裏築壇，把柴擺好，捆綁他的兒子以撒，放在壇的柴上。
When they arrived at the place God had designated, Abraham built the altar there and arranged the wood. He bound his son Isaac and placed him on the altar, atop the wood.
10 亞伯拉罕就伸手拿刀，要殺他的兒子。
Then Abraham reached out his hand and took the knife to slaughter his son.
11 耶和華的使者從天上呼叫他說：「亞伯拉罕！亞伯拉罕！」他說：「我在這裏。」
Just then the angel of the LORD called out to him from heaven, “Abraham, Abraham!” “Here I am,” he replied.
12 天使說：「你不可在這童子身上下手。一點不可害他！現在我知道你是敬畏上帝的了；因為你沒有將你的兒子，就是你獨生的兒子，留下不給我。」
“Do not lay a hand on the boy or do anything to him,” said the angel, “for now I know that you fear God, since you have not withheld your only son from me.”
13 亞伯拉罕舉目觀看，不料，有一隻公羊，兩角扣在稠密的小樹中。亞伯拉罕就取了那隻公羊來，獻為燔祭，代替他的兒子。
Then Abraham looked up and saw behind him a ram in a thicket, caught by its horns. So he went and took the ram and offered it as a burnt offering in place of his son.
14 亞伯拉罕給那地方起名叫「耶和華以勒」，直到今日人還說：「在耶和華的山上必有預備。」
And Abraham called that place The LORD Will Provide. So to this day it is said, “On the mountain of the LORD it will be provided.”
15 耶和華的使者第二次從天上呼叫亞伯拉罕說：
And the angel of the LORD called to Abraham from heaven a second time,
16 「耶和華說：『你既行了這事，不留下你的兒子，就是你獨生的兒子，我便指着自己起誓說：
saying, “By Myself I have sworn, declares the LORD, that because you have done this and have not withheld your only son,
17 論福，我必賜大福給你；論子孫，我必叫你的子孫多起來，如同天上的星，海邊的沙。你子孫必得着仇敵的城門，
I will surely bless you, and I will multiply your descendants like the stars in the sky and the sand on the seashore. Your descendants will possess the gates of their enemies.
18 並且地上萬國都必因你的後裔得福，因為你聽從了我的話。』」
And through your offspring all nations of the earth will be blessed, because you have obeyed My voice.”
19 於是亞伯拉罕回到他僕人那裏，他們一同起身往別是巴去，亞伯拉罕就住在別是巴。
Abraham went back to his servants, and they got up and set out together for Beersheba. And Abraham settled in Beersheba.
20 這事以後，有人告訴亞伯拉罕說：「密迦給你兄弟拿鶴生了幾個兒子，
Some time later, Abraham was told, “Milcah has also borne sons to your brother Nahor:
21 長子是烏斯，他的兄弟是布斯和亞蘭的父親基母利，
Uz the firstborn, his brother Buz, Kemuel (the father of Aram),
22 並基薛、哈瑣、必達、益拉、彼土利（彼土利生利百加）。」
Chesed, Hazo, Pildash, Jidlaph, and Bethuel.”
23 這八個人都是密迦給亞伯拉罕的兄弟拿鶴生的。
And Bethuel became the father of Rebekah. Milcah bore these eight sons to Abraham’s brother Nahor.
24 拿鶴的妾名叫流瑪，生了提八、迦含、他轄，和瑪迦。
Moreover, Nahor’s concubine, whose name was Reumah, bore Tebah, Gaham, Tahash, and Maacah.
