Genesis 22
1 And it came to pass after these things that God tempted Abraam, and said to him, Abraam, Abraam; and he said, Behold! I [am here].
Beberapa waktu kemudian Allah menguji kesetiaan Abraham. Allah memanggil, "Abraham!" Lalu Abraham menjawab, "Ya, Tuhan."
2 And he said, Take your son, the beloved one, whom you have loved—Isaac, and go into the high land, and offer him there for a whole burnt offering on one of the mountains which I will tell you of.
Kata Allah, "Pergilah ke tanah Moria dengan Ishak, anakmu yang tunggal, yang sangat kaukasihi. Di situ, di sebuah gunung yang akan Kutunjukkan kepadamu, persembahkanlah anakmu sebagai kurban bakaran kepada-Ku."
3 And Abraam rose up in the morning and saddled his ass, and he took with him two servants, and Isaac his son, and having split wood for a whole burnt offering, he arose and departed, and came to the place of which God spoke to him,
Keesokan harinya pagi-pagi, Abraham membelah-belah kayu untuk kurban bakaran dan mengikat kayu itu di atas keledainya. Ia berangkat dengan Ishak dan dua orang hambanya ke tempat yang dikatakan Allah kepadanya.
4 on the third day; and Abraam having lifted up his eyes, saw the place afar off.
Pada hari yang ketiga tampaklah oleh Abraham tempat itu di kejauhan.
5 And Abraam said to his servants, Sit you here with the ass, and I and the lad will proceed thus far, and having worshipped we will return to you.
Lalu ia berkata kepada kedua hambanya itu, "Tinggallah kamu di sini dengan keledai ini. Saya dan anak saya akan pergi ke sana untuk menyembah TUHAN, nanti kami kembali kepadamu."
6 And Abraam took the wood of the whole burnt offering, and laid it on Isaac his son, and he took into his hands both the fire and the knife, and the two went together.
Abraham meletakkan kayu untuk kurban bakaran itu pada pundak Ishak, sedang ia sendiri membawa pisau dan bara api untuk membakar kayu. Ketika mereka berjalan bersama-sama,
7 And Isaac said to Abraam his father, Father. And he said, What is it, son? And he said, Behold the fire and the wood, where is the sheep for a whole burnt offering?
Ishak berkata, "Ayah!" Abraham menjawab, "Ada apa, anakku?" Ishak bertanya, "Kita sudah membawa api dan kayu, tetapi di manakah anak domba untuk kurban bakaran itu?"
8 And Abraam said, God will provide himself a sheep for a whole burnt offering, [my] son. And both having gone together,
Abraham menjawab, "Allah sendiri akan menyediakan anak domba itu." Lalu keduanya berjalan terus.
9 came to the place which God spoke of to him; and there Abraam built the altar, and laid the wood on it, and having bound the feet of Isaac his son together, he laid him on the altar upon the wood.
Ketika mereka sampai di tempat yang dikatakan Allah kepada Abraham, ia mendirikan sebuah mezbah dan menyusun kayu bakar itu di atasnya. Lalu diikatnya anaknya dan dibaringkannya di mezbah, di atas kayu bakar itu.
10 And Abraam stretched forth his hand to take the knife to kill his son.
Setelah itu, diambilnya pisaunya hendak membunuh anaknya.
11 And an angel of the Lord called him out of heaven, and said, Abraam, Abraam. And he said, Behold, I [am here].
Tetapi malaikat TUHAN berseru kepadanya dari langit, "Abraham, Abraham!" Jawab Abraham, "Ya, Tuhan!"
12 And he said, Lay not your hand upon the child, neither do anything to him, for now I know that you fear God, and for my sake you have not spared your beloved son.
"Jangan kausakiti anak itu atau kauapa-apakan dia," kata TUHAN melalui malaikat itu. "Sekarang Aku tahu bahwa engkau hormat dan taat kepada-Ku, karena engkau tidak menolak untuk menyerahkan anakmu yang tunggal itu kepada-Ku."
13 And Abraam lifted up his eyes and saw, and behold! a ram caught by his horns in a plant of Sabec; and Abraam went and took the ram, and offered him up for a whole burnt offering in the place of Isaac his son.
Lalu Abraham memandang ke sekitarnya dan melihat seekor domba jantan yang tanduknya tersangkut dalam semak-semak. Abraham mengambil domba itu lalu mempersembahkannya kepada TUHAN sebagai kurban bakaran pengganti anaknya.
14 And Abraam called the name of that place, The Lord has seen; that they might say today, In the mount the Lord was seen.
Abraham menamakan tempat itu "TUHAN menyediakan yang diperlukan". Dan sampai sekarang pun orang mengatakan "Di atas gunung-Nya TUHAN menyediakan yang diperlukan".
15 And an angel of the Lord called Abraam the second time out of heaven, saying, I have sworn by myself, says the Lord, because you have done this thing, and on my account have not spared your beloved son,
Sekali lagi dari langit malaikat TUHAN berseru kepada Abraham,
16 surely blessing I will bless you, and multiplying I will multiply your seed as the stars of heaven, and as the sand which is by the shore of the sea, and your seed shall inherit the cities of their enemies.
"TUHAN berkata: Aku bersumpah demi nama-Ku sendiri, karena engkau telah melakukan hal ini dan tidak menolak untuk menyerahkan anakmu yang tunggal itu kepada-Ku,
17 And in your seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed, because you have listened to my voice.
Aku akan memberkati engkau dengan berlimpah-limpah dan membuat keturunanmu sebanyak bintang di langit dan sebanyak pasir di tepi laut. Anak cucumu akan mengalahkan musuh-musuh mereka.
18 And Abraam returned to his servants, and they arose and went together to the well of the oath; and Abraam lived at the well of the oath.
Semua bangsa di bumi akan memohon kepada-Ku supaya Aku memberkati mereka sebagaimana telah Kuberkati keturunanmu--karena engkau telah mentaati perintah-Ku."
19 And it came to pass after these things, that it was reported to Abraam, saying, Behold, Melcha herself too has born sons to Nachor your brother,
Setelah itu kembalilah Abraham kepada kedua hambanya, lalu mereka bersama-sama pergi ke Bersyeba, dan Abraham menetap di sana.
20 Uz the firstborn, and Baux his brother, and Camuel the father of the Syrians, and Chazad, and
Abraham mempunyai abang yang bernama Nahor. Sesudah kejadian di Gunung Moria itu, Abraham mendengar bahwa Milka, istri Nahor telah mempunyai delapan anak laki-laki, yaitu:
21 Azav and Phaldes, and Jeldaph, and Bathuel, and Bathuel begot Rebecca;
Us, yang sulung; Bus, adiknya; Kemuel, yang kemudian menjadi ayah Aram;
22 these are eight sons, which Melcha bore to Nachor the brother of Abraam.
Kesed, Hazo, Pildas, Yidlaf, dan Betuel,
23 And his concubine whose name was Rheuma, she also bore Tabec, and Taam, and Tochos, and Mocha.
yang kemudian menjadi ayah Ribka. Itulah kedelapan anak yang dilahirkan Milka bagi Nahor, saudara Abraham.
Nahor mempunyai selir yang bernama Reuma dan selir itu melahirkan Tebah, Gaham, Tahas dan Maakha.
