< Genesis 22 >

1 Now after these things, God put Abraham to the test, and said to him, Abraham; and he said, Here am I.
وَحَدَثَ بَعْدَ هَذِهِ ٱلْأُمُورِ أَنَّ ٱللهَ ٱمْتَحَنَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، فَقَالَ لَهُ: «يَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ!». فَقَالَ: «هَأَنَذَا».١
2 And he said to him, Take your son, your dearly loved only son Isaac, and go to the land of Moriah and give him as a burned offering on one of the mountains of which I will give you knowledge.
فَقَالَ: «خُذِ ٱبْنَكَ وَحِيدَكَ، ٱلَّذِي تُحِبُّهُ، إِسْحَاقَ، وَٱذْهَبْ إِلَى أَرْضِ ٱلْمُرِيَّا، وَأَصْعِدْهُ هُنَاكَ مُحْرَقَةً عَلَى أَحَدِ ٱلْجِبَالِ ٱلَّذِي أَقُولُ لَكَ».٢
3 And Abraham got up early in the morning, and made ready his ass, and took with him two of his young men and Isaac, his son, and after the wood for the burned offering had been cut, he went on his way to the place of which God had given him word.
فَبَكَّرَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ صَبَاحًا وَشَدَّ عَلَى حِمَارِهِ، وَأَخَذَ ٱثْنَيْنِ مِنْ غِلْمَانِهِ مَعَهُ، وَإِسْحَاقَ ٱبْنَهُ، وَشَقَّقَ حَطَبًا لِمُحْرَقَةٍ، وَقَامَ وَذَهَبَ إِلَى ٱلْمَوْضِعِ ٱلَّذِي قَالَ لَهُ ٱللهُ.٣
4 And on the third day, Abraham, lifting up his eyes, saw the place a long way off.
وَفِي ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلثَّالِثِ رَفَعَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ عَيْنَيْهِ وَأَبْصَرَ ٱلْمَوْضِعَ مِنْ بَعِيدٍ،٤
5 Then he said to his young men, Keep here with the ass; and I and the boy will go on and give worship and come back again to you.
فَقَالَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ لِغُلَامَيْهِ: «ٱجْلِسَا أَنْتُمَا هَهُنَا مَعَ ٱلْحِمَارِ، وَأَمَّا أَنَا وَٱلْغُلَامُ فَنَذْهَبُ إِلَى هُنَاكَ وَنَسْجُدُ، ثُمَّ نَرْجِعُ إِلَيْكُمَا».٥
6 And Abraham put the wood for the burned offering on his son's back, and he himself took the fire and the knife in his hand, and the two of them went on together.
فَأَخَذَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ حَطَبَ ٱلْمُحْرَقَةِ وَوَضَعَهُ عَلَى إِسْحَاقَ ٱبْنِهِ، وَأَخَذَ بِيَدِهِ ٱلنَّارَ وَٱلسِّكِّينَ. فَذَهَبَا كِلَاهُمَا مَعًا.٦
7 Then Isaac said to Abraham, My father; and he said, Here am I, my son. And he said, We have wood and fire here, but where is the lamb for the burned offering?
وَكَلَّمَ إِسْحَاقُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ أَبِاهُ وَقَالَ: «يَا أَبِي!». فَقَالَ: «هَأَنَذَا يَا ٱبْنِي». فَقَالَ: «هُوَذَا ٱلنَّارُ وَٱلْحَطَبُ، وَلَكِنْ أَيْنَ ٱلْخَرُوفُ لِلْمُحْرَقَةِ؟».٧
8 And Abraham said, God himself will give the lamb for the burned offering: so they went on together.
فَقَالَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ: «ٱللهُ يَرَى لَهُ ٱلْخَرُوفَ لِلْمُحْرَقَةِ يَا ٱبْنِي». فَذَهَبَا كِلَاهُمَا مَعًا.٨
9 And they came to the place of which God had given him knowledge; and there Abraham made the altar and put the wood in place on it, and having made tight the bands round Isaac his son, he put him on the wood on the altar.
فَلَمَّا أَتَيَا إِلَى ٱلْمَوْضِعِ ٱلَّذِي قَالَ لَهُ ٱللهُ، بَنَى هُنَاكَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ ٱلْمَذْبَحَ وَرَتَّبَ ٱلْحَطَبَ وَرَبَطَ إِسْحَاقَ ٱبْنَهُ وَوَضَعَهُ عَلَى ٱلْمَذْبَحِ فَوْقَ ٱلْحَطَبِ.٩
10 And stretching out his hand, Abraham took the knife to put his son to death.
ثُمَّ مَدَّ إِبْرَاهِيمُ يَدَهُ وَأَخَذَ ٱلسِّكِّينَ لِيَذْبَحَ ٱبْنَهُ.١٠
11 But the voice of the angel of the Lord came from heaven, saying, Abraham, Abraham: and he said, Here am I.
فَنَادَاهُ مَلَاكُ ٱلرَّبِّ مِنَ ٱلسَّمَاءِ وَقَالَ: «إِبْرَاهِيمُ! إِبْرَاهِيمُ!». فَقَالَ: «هَأَنَذَا».١١
12 And he said, Let not your hand be stretched out against the boy to do anything to him; for now I am certain that the fear of God is in your heart, because you have not kept back your son, your only son, from me.
فَقَالَ: «لَا تَمُدَّ يَدَكَ إِلَى ٱلْغُلَامِ وَلَا تَفْعَلْ بِهِ شَيْئًا، لِأَنِّي ٱلْآنَ عَلِمْتُ أَنَّكَ خَائِفٌ ٱللهَ، فَلَمْ تُمْسِكِ ٱبْنَكَ وَحِيدَكَ عَنِّي».١٢
13 And lifting up his eyes, Abraham saw a sheep fixed by its horns in the brushwood: and Abraham took the sheep and made a burned offering of it in place of his son.
فَرَفَعَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ عَيْنَيْهِ وَنَظَرَ وَإِذَا كَبْشٌ وَرَاءَهُ مُمْسَكًا فِي ٱلْغَابَةِ بِقَرْنَيْهِ، فَذَهَبَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ وَأَخَذَ ٱلْكَبْشَ وَأَصْعَدَهُ مُحْرَقَةً عِوَضًا عَنِ ٱبْنِهِ.١٣
14 And Abraham gave that place the name Yahweh-yireh: as it is said to this day, In the mountain the Lord is seen.
فَدَعَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ ٱسْمَ ذَلِكَ ٱلْمَوْضِعِ «يَهْوَهْ يِرْأَهْ». حَتَّى إِنَّهُ يُقَالُ ٱلْيَوْمَ: «فِي جَبَلِ ٱلرَّبِّ يُرَى».١٤
15 And the voice of the angel of the Lord came to Abraham a second time from heaven,
وَنَادَى مَلَاكُ ٱلرَّبِّ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ثَانِيَةً مِنَ ٱلسَّمَاءِ١٥
16 Saying, I have taken an oath by my name, says the Lord, because you have done this and have not kept back from me your dearly loved only son,
وَقَالَ: «بِذَاتِي أَقْسَمْتُ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ، أَنِّي مِنْ أَجْلِ أَنَّكَ فَعَلْتَ هَذَا ٱلْأَمْرَ، وَلَمْ تُمْسِكِ ٱبْنَكَ وَحِيدَكَ،١٦
17 That I will certainly give you my blessing, and your seed will be increased like the stars of heaven and the sand by the seaside; your seed will take the land of those who are against them;
أُبَارِكُكَ مُبَارَكَةً، وَأُكَثِّرُ نَسْلَكَ تَكْثِيرًا كَنُجُومِ ٱلسَّمَاءِ وَكَالرَّمْلِ ٱلَّذِي عَلَى شَاطِئِ ٱلْبَحْرِ، وَيَرِثُ نَسْلُكَ بَابَ أَعْدَائِهِ،١٧
18 And your seed will be a blessing to all the nations of the earth, because you have done what I gave you orders to do.
وَيَتَبَارَكُ فِي نَسْلِكَ جَمِيعُ أُمَمِ ٱلْأَرْضِ، مِنْ أَجْلِ أَنَّكَ سَمِعْتَ لِقَوْلِي».١٨
19 Then Abraham went back to his young men and they went together to Beer-sheba, the place where Abraham was living.
ثُمَّ رَجَعَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ إِلَى غُلَامَيْهِ، فَقَامُوا وَذَهَبُوا مَعًا إِلَى بِئْرِ سَبْعٍ. وَسَكَنَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ فِي بِئْرِ سَبْعٍ.١٩
20 After these things, Abraham had news that Milcah, the wife of his brother Nahor, had given birth to children;
وَحَدَثَ بَعْدَ هَذِهِ ٱلْأُمُورِ أَنَّ إِبْرَاهِيمَ أُخْبِرَ وَقِيلَ لَهُ: «هُوَذَا مِلْكَةُ قَدْ وَلَدَتْ هِيَ أَيْضًا بَنِينَ لِنَاحُورَ أَخِيكَ:٢٠
21 Uz the oldest, and Buz his brother, and Kemuel, the father of Aram,
عُوصًا بِكْرَهُ، وَبُوزًا أَخَاهُ، وَقَمُوئِيلَ أَبَا أَرَامَ،٢١
22 And Chesed and Hazo and Pildash and Jidlaph and Bethuel.
وَكَاسَدَ وَحَزْوًا وَفِلْدَاشَ وَيِدْلَافَ وَبَتُوئِيلَ».٢٢
23 Bethuel was the father of Rebekah: these eight were the children of Milcah and Nahor, Abraham's brother.
وَوَلَدَ بَتُوئِيلُ رِفْقَةَ. هَؤُلَاءِ ٱلثَّمَانِيَةُ وَلَدَتْهُمْ مِلْكَةُ لِنَاحُورَ أَخِي إِبْرَاهِيمَ.٢٣
24 And his servant Reumah gave birth to Tebah and Gaham and Tahash and Maacah.
وَأَمَّا سُرِّيَّتُهُ، وَٱسْمُهَا رَؤُومَةُ، فَوَلَدَتْ هِيَ أَيْضًا: طَابَحَ وَجَاحَمَ وَتَاحَشَ وَمَعْكَةَ.٢٤
