Genesis 22
1 And it came to pass after these things, that God proved Abraham, and said to him, Abraham. And he said, Here I am.
Quæ postquam gesta sunt, tentavit Deus Abraham, et dixit ad eum: Abraham, Abraham. At ille respondit: Adsum.
2 And he said, Take now thy son, thine only son, whom thou love, even Isaac, 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.
Ait illi: Tolle filium tuum unigenitum, quem diligis, Isaac, et vade in terram visionis, atque ibi offeres eum in holocaustum super unum montium quem monstravero tibi.
3 And Abraham rose early in the morning, and saddled his donkey, and took two of his young men with him, and Isaac his son. And he split the wood for the burnt offering, and rose up, and went to the place of which God had told him.
Igitur Abraham de nocte consurgens, stravit asinum suum, ducens secum duos juvenes, et Isaac filium suum: cumque concidisset ligna in holocaustum, abiit ad locum quem præceperat ei Deus.
4 On the third day Abraham lifted up his eyes, and saw the place afar off.
Die autem tertio, elevatis oculis, vidit locum procul:
5 And Abraham said to his young men, Abide ye here with the donkey, and I and the lad will go yonder, and we will worship, and come again to you.
dixitque ad pueros suos: Expectate hic cum asino: ego et puer illuc usque properantes, postquam adoraverimus, revertemur ad vos.
6 And Abraham took the wood of the burnt offering, and laid it upon Isaac his son. And he took in his hand the fire and the knife. And they went both of them together.
Tulit quoque ligna holocausti, et imposuit super Isaac filium suum: ipse vero portabat in manibus ignem et gladium. Cumque duo pergerent simul,
7 And Isaac spoke to Abraham his father, and said, My father. And he said, Here I am, my son. And he said, Behold, the fire and the wood, but where is the lamb for a burnt offering?
dixit Isaac patri suo: Pater mi. At ille respondit: Quid vis, fili? Ecce, inquit, ignis et ligna: ubi est victima holocausti?
8 And Abraham said, God will provide himself the lamb for a burnt offering, my son. So they went both of them together.
Dixit autem Abraham: Deus providebit sibi victimam holocausti, fili mi. Pergebant ergo pariter.
9 And they came to the place which God had told him of. And Abraham built the altar there, and laid the wood in order, and bound Isaac his son, and laid him on the altar, upon the wood.
Et venerunt ad locum quem ostenderat ei Deus, in quo ædificavit altare, et desuper ligna composuit; cumque alligasset Isaac filium suum, posuit eum in altare super struem lignorum.
10 And Abraham stretched forth his hand, and took the knife to slay his son.
Extenditque manum, et arripuit gladium, ut immolaret filium suum.
11 And the agent of Jehovah called to him out of heaven, and said, Abraham, Abraham. And he said, Here I am.
Et ecce angelus Domini de cælo clamavit, dicens: Abraham, Abraham. Qui respondit: Adsum.
12 And he said, Do not lay thy hand upon the lad, neither do thou anything to him. For now I know that thou fear God, since thou have not withheld thy son, thine only son, from me.
Dixitque ei: Non extendas manum tuam super puerum, neque facias illi quidquam: nunc cognovi quod times Deum, et non pepercisti unigenito filio tuo propter me.
13 And Abraham lifted up his eyes, and looked, and, behold, behind him a ram caught in the thicket by his horns. And Abraham went and took the ram, and offered him up for a burnt offering instead of his son.
Levavit Abraham oculos suos, viditque post tergum arietem inter vepres hærentem cornibus, quem assumens obtulit holocaustum pro filio.
14 And Abraham called the name of that place Jehovah-jireh. As it is said to this day, In the mount of Jehovah it shall be provided.
Appellavitque nomen loci illius, Dominus videt. Unde usque hodie dicitur: In monte Dominus videbit.
15 And the agent of Jehovah called to Abraham a second time out of heaven,
Vocavit autem angelus Domini Abraham secundo de cælo, dicens:
16 and said, By myself I have sworn, says Jehovah, because thou have done this thing, and have not withheld thy son, thine only son,
Per memetipsum juravi, dicit Dominus: quia fecisti hanc rem, et non pepercisti filio tuo unigenito propter me:
17 that in blessing I will bless thee, and in multiplying I will multiply thy seed as the stars of the heavens, and as the sand which is upon the seashore, and thy seed shall possess the gate of his enemies,
benedicam tibi, et multiplicabo semen tuum sicut stellas cæli, et velut arenam quæ est in littore maris: possidebit semen tuum portas inimicorum suorum,
18 and in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed, because thou have obeyed my voice.
et benedicentur in semine tuo omnes gentes terræ, quia obedisti voci meæ.
19 So Abraham returned to his young men. And they rose up and went together to Beersheba. And Abraham dwelt at Beersheba.
Reversus est Abraham ad pueros suos, abieruntque Bersabee simul, et habitavit ibi.
20 And it came to pass after these things, that it was told Abraham, saying, Behold, Milcah, she also has borne sons to thy brother Nahor:
His ita gestis, nuntiatum est Abrahæ quod Melcha quoque genuisset filios Nachor fratri suo:
21 Uz his first born, and Buz his brother, and Kemuel the father of Aram,
Hus primogenitum, et Buz fratrem ejus, et Camuel patrem Syrorum,
22 and Chesed, and Hazo, and Pildash, and Jidlaph, and Bethuel.
et Cased, et Azau, Pheldas quoque et Jedlaph,
23 And Bethuel begot Rebekah. These eight Milcah bore to Nahor, Abraham's brother.
ac Bathuel, de quo nata est Rebecca: octo istos genuit Melcha, Nachor fratri Abrahæ.
24 And his concubine, whose name was Reumah, she also bore Tebah, and Gaham, and Tahash, and Maacah.
Concubina vero illius, nomine Roma, peperit Tabee, et Gaham, et Thahas, et Maacha.
