Genesis 22
1 Some time later God tested Abraham and said to him, “Abraham!” “Here I am,” he answered.
quae postquam gesta sunt temptavit Deus Abraham et dixit ad eum Abraham ille respondit adsum
2 “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.”
ait ei tolle filium tuum unigenitum quem diligis Isaac et vade in terram Visionis atque offer eum ibi holocaustum super unum montium quem monstravero tibi
3 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.
igitur Abraham de nocte consurgens stravit asinum suum ducens secum duos iuvenes et Isaac filium suum cumque concidisset ligna in holocaustum abiit ad locum quem praeceperat ei Deus
4 On the third day Abraham looked up and saw the place in the distance.
die autem tertio elevatis oculis vidit locum procul
5 “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.”
dixitque ad pueros suos expectate hic cum asino ego et puer illuc usque properantes postquam adoraverimus revertemur ad vos
6 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.
tulit quoque ligna holocausti et inposuit super Isaac filium suum ipse vero portabat in manibus ignem et gladium cumque duo pergerent simul
7 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?”
dixit Isaac patri suo pater mi at ille respondit quid vis fili ecce inquit ignis et ligna ubi est victima holocausti
8 Abraham answered, “God Himself will provide the lamb for the burnt offering, my son.” And the two walked on together.
dixit Abraham Deus providebit sibi victimam holocausti fili mi pergebant ergo pariter
9 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.
veneruntque ad locum quem ostenderat ei Deus in quo aedificavit altare et desuper ligna conposuit cumque conligasset Isaac filium suum posuit eum in altari super struem lignorum
10 Then Abraham reached out his hand and took the knife to slaughter his son.
extenditque manum et arripuit gladium ut immolaret filium
11 Just then the angel of the LORD called out to him from heaven, “Abraham, Abraham!” “Here I am,” he replied.
et ecce angelus Domini de caelo clamavit dicens Abraham Abraham qui respondit adsum
12 “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.”
dixitque ei non extendas manum tuam super puerum neque facias illi quicquam nunc cognovi quod timeas Dominum et non peperceris filio tuo unigenito propter me
13 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.
levavit Abraham oculos viditque post tergum arietem inter vepres herentem cornibus quem adsumens obtulit holocaustum pro filio
14 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.”
appellavitque nomen loci illius Dominus videt unde usque hodie dicitur in monte Dominus videbit
15 And the angel of the LORD called to Abraham from heaven a second time,
vocavit autem angelus Domini Abraham secundo de caelo dicens
16 saying, “By Myself I have sworn, declares the LORD, that because you have done this and have not withheld your only son,
per memet ipsum iuravi dicit Dominus quia fecisti rem hanc et non pepercisti filio tuo unigenito
17 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.
benedicam tibi et multiplicabo semen tuum sicut stellas caeli et velut harenam quae est in litore maris possidebit semen tuum portas inimicorum suorum
18 And through your offspring all nations of the earth will be blessed, because you have obeyed My voice.”
et benedicentur in semine tuo omnes gentes terrae quia oboedisti voci meae
19 Abraham went back to his servants, and they got up and set out together for Beersheba. And Abraham settled in Beersheba.
reversus est Abraham ad pueros suos abieruntque Bersabee simul et habitavit ibi
20 Some time later, Abraham was told, “Milcah has also borne sons to your brother Nahor:
his itaque gestis nuntiatum est Abraham quod Melcha quoque genuisset filios Nahor fratri suo
21 Uz the firstborn, his brother Buz, Kemuel (the father of Aram),
Hus primogenitum et Buz fratrem eius Camuhel patrem Syrorum
22 Chesed, Hazo, Pildash, Jidlaph, and Bethuel.”
et Chased et Azau Pheldas quoque et Iedlaph
23 And Bethuel became the father of Rebekah. Milcah bore these eight sons to Abraham’s brother Nahor.
ac Bathuel de quo nata est Rebecca octo istos genuit Melcha Nahor fratri Abraham
24 Moreover, Nahor’s concubine, whose name was Reumah, bore Tebah, Gaham, Tahash, and Maacah.
concubina vero illius nomine Roma peperit Tabee et Gaom et Thaas et Maacha
