< Genesis 22 >

1 Now after these things, God put Abraham to the test, and said to him, Abraham; and he said, Here am I.
Po teh stvareh pa se je pripetilo, da je Bog skušal Abrahama ter mu rekel: »Abraham.« In rekel je: »Glej, tukaj sem.«
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.
Rekel je: »Vzemi sedaj svojega sina, svojega edinega sina Izaka, ki ga ljubiš in pojdi v deželo Moríja; in tam ga daruj v žgalno daritev na eni izmed gorá, o kateri ti bom povedal.«
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.
Abraham je zgodaj zjutraj vstal, osedlal svojega osla in s seboj vzel dva izmed svojih mladeničev in svojega sina Izaka in nacepil drv za žgalno daritev in vstal ter odšel na kraj, o katerem mu je Bog povedal.
4 And on the third day, Abraham, lifting up his eyes, saw the place a long way off.
Potem je Abraham tretji dan povzdignil svoje oči in daleč stran zagledal kraj.
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.
Abraham je rekel svojima mladeničema: »Vidva ostanita tukaj z oslom, jaz in deček pa bova šla tamkaj, oboževala in ponovno prišla k vama.«
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.
Abraham je vzel drva žgalne daritve in ta položil na svojega sina Izaka, v svojo roko pa je vzel ogenj in nož in oba skupaj sta odšla.
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?
Izak je spregovoril svojemu očetu Abrahamu in rekel: »Moj oče.« Ta je rekel: »Tukaj sem, sin moj.« Rekel je: »Glej ogenj in drva, toda kje je jagnje za žgalno daritev?«
8 And Abraham said, God himself will give the lamb for the burned offering: so they went on together.
Abraham je rekel: »Moj sin, Bog si bo priskrbel jagnje za žgalno daritev.« Tako sta oba skupaj odšla.
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.
Prišla sta do kraja, o katerem mu je povedal Bog in Abraham je tam zgradil oltar in razporedil drva ter zvezal svojega sina Izaka in ga položil na oltar, na drva.
10 And stretching out his hand, Abraham took the knife to put his son to death.
Abraham je iztegnil svojo roko in vzel nož, da svojega sina zakolje.
11 But the voice of the angel of the Lord came from heaven, saying, Abraham, Abraham: and he said, Here am I.
Gospodov angel pa je iz nebes zaklical k njemu in rekel: »Abraham, Abraham.« Ta je rekel: »Tukaj sem.«
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.
Rekel je: »Svoje roke ne položi na dečka niti mu ničesar ne stôri, kajti sedaj vem, da se bojiš Boga, glede na to, da sem videl, da mi nisi odrekel svojega sina, svojega edinega sina.«
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.
Abraham je povzdignil svoje oči in pogledal in za seboj zagledal ovna, s svojimi rogovi ujetega v goščavo. Abraham je odšel, vzel ovna in ga namesto svojega sina daroval za žgalno daritev.
14 And Abraham gave that place the name Yahweh-yireh: as it is said to this day, In the mountain the Lord is seen.
Abraham je ime tega kraja imenoval Jahve–jire, kakor je rečeno do tega dne: ›Na gori Gospodovi bo videno.‹
15 And the voice of the angel of the Lord came to Abraham a second time from heaven,
Gospodov angel pa je iz nebes drugič zaklical k Abrahamu
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,
in rekel: »Pri sebi sem prisegel, « govori Gospod, »kajti ker si storil to stvar in nisi zadržal svojega sina, svojega edinega sina,
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;
te bom v blagoslavljanju blagoslovil in v množenju bom pomnožil tvoje seme kakor zvezd neba in kakor peska, ki je na morski obali in tvoje seme bo imelo v lasti velika vrata svojih sovražnikov
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.
in v tvojem semenu bodo blagoslovljeni vsi narodi zemlje, ker si ubogal moj glas.«
19 Then Abraham went back to his young men and they went together to Beer-sheba, the place where Abraham was living.
Tako se je Abraham vrnil k svojima mladeničema in vstali so ter skupaj odšli k Beeršébi in Abraham je prebival pri Beeršébi.
20 After these things, Abraham had news that Milcah, the wife of his brother Nahor, had given birth to children;
Po teh stvareh pa se je pripetilo, da je bilo Abrahamu povedano, rekoč: »Glej, Milka, tudi ona je tvojemu bratu Nahórju rodila otroke.
21 Uz the oldest, and Buz his brother, and Kemuel, the father of Aram,
Njegovega prvorojenca Uca, njegovega brata Buza, Arámovega očeta Kemuéla,
22 And Chesed and Hazo and Pildash and Jidlaph and Bethuel.
Keseda, Hazója, Pildáša, Jidláfa in Betuéla.
23 Bethuel was the father of Rebekah: these eight were the children of Milcah and Nahor, Abraham's brother.
In Betuél je zaplodil Rebeko. Teh osem je Milka rodila Nahórju, Abrahamovemu bratu.
24 And his servant Reumah gave birth to Tebah and Gaham and Tahash and Maacah.
Njegova priležnica, ki ji je bilo ime Reúma je tudi rodila Tebaha, Gahama, Tahaša in Maahája.«
