1 Bangʼ kinde moko Nyasaye notemo Ibrahim. Noluonge niya, “Ibrahim!” Eka nodwoke niya, “Eri an ka.”
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 Eka Nyasaye nowacho niya, “Kaw wuodi, wuodi ma miderma Isaka, kendo mi ihero mondo idhigo e gwengʼ mar Moria. Chiwe kanyo kaka misango miwangʼo pep ewi got moro ma abiro nyisi.”
And he said, Take now thy son, thine only son Isaac, whom thou lovest, and get thee into the land of Moriah; and offer him there for a burnt offering upon one of the mountains which I will tell thee of.
3 Kinyne gokinyi mangʼich Ibrahim noa malo kendo noiko pundane ne wuoth. Nodhi kod jotijene ariyo kaachiel gi Isaka wuode. Kane osengʼado yien moromo tiyogo e misango miwangʼo pep, nochako wuoth madhi kamane Nyasaye osenyise.
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 E odiechiengʼ mar adek Ibrahim notingʼo wangʼe moneno kanyo gi kuma bor.
Then on the third day Abraham lifted up his eyes, and saw the place afar off.
5 Nowacho ne jotije niya, “Dongʼuru kae gi punda ka an kod Isaka wadhi kucha. Wadhi lemo kendo eka wabiro duogo iru.”
And Abraham said unto his young men, Abide ye here with the ass; and I and the lad will go yonder and worship, and come again to you.
6 Ibrahim nokawo yien mar misango miwangʼo pep kendo nomiyo Isaka, to en owuon notingʼo mach kod pala ka ji ariyogo ne wuotho.
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 Isaka notingʼo dwonde mopenjo wuon-gi Ibrahim niya, “Wuora?” Ibrahim nodwoke niya, “En angʼo wuoda?” Eka Isaka nopenje niya, “Mach kod yien nikae, to ere nyaim mar misango miwangʼo pep?”
And Isaac spake 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 Ibrahim nodwoke niya, “Wuoda, Nyasaye owuon ema biro chiwo nyaim mar misango miwangʼo pep.” Bangʼ mano negidhi nyime giwuodhgi kanyakla.
And Abraham said, My son, God will provide himself a lamb for a burnt offering: so they went both of them together.
9 Kane gichopo kumane Nyasaye osenyiso Ibrahim, Ibrahim nogero kendo mar misango kanyo kendo nopango yien e wiye motweyo Isaka wuode kendo nopiele ewi kendo mar misango, ewi yien.
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 Eka notero lwete kendo okawo pala mondo oneg-go wuode.
And Abraham stretched forth his hand, and took the knife to slay his son.
11 To malaika mar Jehova Nyasaye noluonge gie polo niya, “Ibrahim! Ibrahim!” Eka nodwoke niya, “Eri an ka.”
And the angel of the Lord called unto him out of heaven, and said, Abraham, Abraham: and he said, Here am I.
12 Malaika nowachone niya, “Kik iket lweti kuom wuodi, kendo kik itimne gimoro amora. Koro asengʼeyo ni iluoro Nyasaye, nikech ok isetama e wuodi ma miderma.”
And he said, Lay not thine hand upon the lad, neither do thou any thing unto him: for now I know that thou fearest God, seeing thou hast not withheld thy son, thine only son from me.
13 Ibrahim notingʼo wangʼe mopo koneno im komoko gitungene e bungu. Nodhi mokawo im kendo ochiwo kaka misango miwangʼo pep kar wuode.
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 stead of his son.
14 Omiyo Ibrahim nochako kanyo ni Jehova Nyasaye ma Jachiwo kendo nyaka chil kawuono iwacho niya, “E God Jehova Nyasaye ema nochiwe.”
And Abraham called the name of that place Jehovah-jireh: as it is said to this day, In the mount of the Lord it shall be seen.
15 Malaika mar Jehova Nyasaye nochako luongo Ibrahim gie polo,
And the angel of the Lord called unto Abraham out of heaven the second time,
16 mi Jehova Nyasaye owacho niya, “Akwongʼora gi nyinga awuon, ni nikech isetimona ma kendo ok isetama e wuodi ma miderma,
And said, By myself have I sworn, saith the Lord, for because thou hast done this thing, and hast not withheld thy son, thine only son:
17 abiro gwedhi adier kendo anami nyikwayi bed mangʼeny ka sulwe mae polo kendo ka kuoyo manie dho nam. Nyikwayi nokaw mier mag jowasikgi mondo obed margi,
That in blessing I will bless thee, and in multiplying I will multiply thy seed as the stars of the heaven, and as the sand which is upon the sea shore; and thy seed shall possess the gate of his enemies;
18 kendo ogendini duto manie piny nogwedhi kokalo e kothi, nikech isewinjo wachna.”
And in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed; because thou hast obeyed my voice.
19 Eka Ibrahim nodok ir jotije, kendo giduto negiwuok ka gidok Bersheba. Kendo Ibrahim nodak Bersheba.
So Abraham returned unto his young men, and they rose up and went together to Beer-sheba; and Abraham dwelt at Beer-sheba.
20 Bangʼ kinde moko, Ibrahim noyudo wach niya, “Milka bende koro osenywolone owadu Nahor yawuowi ma gin:
And it came to pass after these things, that it was told Abraham, saying, Behold, Milcah, she hath also born children unto thy brother Nahor;
21 Uz wuowi makayo, Buz owadgi, Kemuel (wuon Aram),
Huz his firstborn, and Buz his brother, and Kemuel the father of Aram,
22 Kesed, Hazo, Pildash, Jidlaf kod Bethuel.”
And Chesed, and Hazo, and Pildash, and Jidlaph, and Bethuel.
23 Bethuel nonywolo Rebeka. Yawuowi aborogo ema Milka nonywolone Nahor owadgi Ibrahim.
And Bethuel begat Rebekah: these eight Milcah did bear to Nahor, Abraham’s brother.
24 Jatichne ma nyako ma nyinge Reuma bende nonywolone yawuowi, ma gin: Teba, Gaham, Tahash kod Maaka.
And his concubine, whose name was Reumah, she bare also Tebah, and Gaham, and Thahash, and Maachah.
