Chakruok 22
1 Bangʼ kinde moko Nyasaye notemo Ibrahim. Noluonge niya, “Ibrahim!” Eka nodwoke niya, “Eri an ka.”
After these things, God tested Abraham [Father of a multitude], and said to him, “Abraham [Father of a multitude]!” He said, “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.”
He said, “Now take your son, your only son, whom you 'ahavta ·affectionately love·, even Isaac [Laughter], and go into the land of Moriah. Offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains which I will tell you 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.
Abraham [Father of a multitude] rose early in the morning, and saddled his donkey, and took two of his young men with him, and Isaac [Laughter] his son. He split the wood for the burnt offering, and rose up, and went to the place of which God had told him.
4 E odiechiengʼ mar adek Ibrahim notingʼo wangʼe moneno kanyo gi kuma bor.
On the third day Abraham [Father of a multitude] lifted up his eyes, and saw the place far off.
5 Nowacho ne jotije niya, “Dongʼuru kae gi punda ka an kod Isaka wadhi kucha. Wadhi lemo kendo eka wabiro duogo iru.”
Abraham [Father of a multitude] said to his young men, “Stay here with the donkey. The boy and I will go yonder. We will hawa ·bow low, prostrate· in worship, and come back 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.
Abraham [Father of a multitude] took the wood of the burnt offering and laid it on Isaac [Laughter] his son. He took in his hand the fire and the knife. They both went 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?”
Isaac [Laughter] spoke to Abraham [Father of a multitude] his father, and said, “My father?” He said, “Here I am, my son.” He said, “Here is 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.
Abraham [Father of a multitude] said, “God will provide himself the lamb for a burnt offering, my son.” So they both went 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.
They came to the place which God had told him of. Abraham [Father of a multitude] built the altar there, and laid the wood in order, bound Isaac [Laughter] his son, and laid him on the altar, on the wood.
10 Eka notero lwete kendo okawo pala mondo oneg-go wuode.
Abraham [Father of a multitude] stretched out his hand, and took the knife to kill his son.
11 To malaika mar Jehova Nyasaye noluonge gie polo niya, “Ibrahim! Ibrahim!” Eka nodwoke niya, “Eri an ka.”
Ha mal'ak Yahweh [The Angel of He sustains breathing] called to him out of the sky, and said, “Abraham, Abraham! [Father of a multitude, Father of a multitude]!” He said, “Here I am.”
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.”
He said, “Don’t lay your hand on the boy or do anything to him. For now I know that you fear God, since you have not withheld your son, your 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.
Abraham [Father of a multitude] lifted up his eyes, and looked, and saw that behind him was a ram caught in the thicket by his horns. Abraham [Father of a multitude] went and took the ram, and offered him up for a burnt offering instead 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.”
Abraham [Father of a multitude] called the name of that place Yahweh Yeer'eh [Yahweh will be seen / He sustains breathing will provide]. As it is said to this day, “On Adonai’s mountain, it will be provided.”
15 Malaika mar Jehova Nyasaye nochako luongo Ibrahim gie polo,
Ha mal'ak Yahweh [The Angel of He sustains breathing] called to Abraham [Father of a multitude] a second time out of the sky,
16 mi Jehova Nyasaye owacho niya, “Akwongʼora gi nyinga awuon, ni nikech isetimona ma kendo ok isetama e wuodi ma miderma,
and said, “I have sworn by myself, says Adonai, because you have done this thing, and have not withheld your son, your 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,
I will bless you greatly, and I will multiply your offspring greatly like the stars of the heavens, and like the sand which is on the seashore. Your offspring will possess the gate of his enemies.
18 kendo ogendini duto manie piny nogwedhi kokalo e kothi, nikech isewinjo wachna.”
By your offspring, all the nations of the earth will be blessed because you have sh'ma ·heard obeyed· my voice.”
19 Eka Ibrahim nodok ir jotije, kendo giduto negiwuok ka gidok Bersheba. Kendo Ibrahim nodak Bersheba.
So Abraham [Father of a multitude] returned to his young men, and they rose up and went together to Be'er-Sheva [Well of Seven, Well of an Oath]. Abraham [Father of a multitude] lived at Be'er-Sheva [Well of Seven, Well of an Oath].
20 Bangʼ kinde moko, Ibrahim noyudo wach niya, “Milka bende koro osenywolone owadu Nahor yawuowi ma gin:
After these things, Abraham [Father of a multitude] was told, “Behold, Milcah, she also has borne children to your brother Nahor:
21 Uz wuowi makayo, Buz owadgi, Kemuel (wuon Aram),
Uz his firstborn, Buz his brother, Kemuel the father of Aram [Elevated],
22 Kesed, Hazo, Pildash, Jidlaf kod Bethuel.”
Chesed, Hazo, Pildash, Jidlaph, and Bethuel.”
23 Bethuel nonywolo Rebeka. Yawuowi aborogo ema Milka nonywolone Nahor owadgi Ibrahim.
Bethuel became the father of Rebekah [Securely bound]. These eight Milcah bore to Nahor, Abraham [Father of a multitude]’s brother.
24 Jatichne ma nyako ma nyinge Reuma bende nonywolone yawuowi, ma gin: Teba, Gaham, Tahash kod Maaka.
His concubine, whose name was Reumah, also bore Tebah, Gaham, Tahash, and Maacah.
