Genesis 22
1 After these things occurred, God tested Abraham, and he said to him, “Abraham, Abraham.” And he answered, “Here I am.”
Yeroo muraasa booddee Waaqni Abrahaamin qore. Innis, “Abrahaam!” jedhee isa waame. Abrahaamis, “Kunoo asan jira” jedhee deebise.
2 He said to him: “Take your only begotten son Isaac, whom you love, and go into the land of vision. And there you shall offer him as a holocaust upon one of the mountains, which I will show to you.”
Waaqnis akkana jedheen; “Ilma kee Yisihaaq, ilma kee tokkicha isa jaallattu sana fudhiitii biyya Mooriyaa dhaqi. Tulluu ani sitti himu irratti qalma gubamu godhiitii isa dhiʼeessi.”
3 And so Abraham, getting up in the night, harnessed his donkey, taking with him two youths, and his son Isaac. And when he had cut wood for the holocaust, he traveled toward the place, as God had instructed him.
Abrahaamis guyyaa itti aanu ganama barraaqaan kaʼee harree isaa feʼate. Innis hojjettoota isaa keessaa nama lamaa fi ilma isaa Yisihaaqin fudhatee qoraan qalma gubamuuf gaʼu cabsatee gara iddoo Waaqni isatti hime sanaatti qajeele.
4 Then, on the third day, lifting up his eyes, he saw the place at a distance.
Guyyaa sadaffaattis Abrahaam ol ilaalee iddoo sana fagootti arge.
5 And he said to his servants: “Wait here with the donkey. I and the boy will hurry further ahead to that place. After we have worshipped, will return to you.”
Innis hojjettoota isaatiin, “Isin harree wajjin asuma turaa. Anii fi mucichi duuba sana dhaqnaa; achittis waaqeffannee gara keessanitti deebinaa” jedhe.
6 He also took the wood for the holocaust, and he imposed it upon his son Isaac. And he himself carried in his hands fire and a sword. And as the two continued on together,
Abrahaamis qoraan aarsaa gubamuuf taʼu fuudhee ilma isaa Yisihaaqin baachise; ofii isaatii immoo ibiddaa fi billaa harkatti qabate. Isaan lamaan utuu walumaan deemaa jiranuu,
7 Isaac said to his father, “My father.” And he answered, “What do you want, son?” “Behold,” he said, “fire and wood. Where is the victim for the holocaust?”
Yisihaaq, “Yaa abbaa koo” jedhee abbaa isaa Abrahaamitti dubbate. Abrahaamis, “Asan jira ilma koo” jedhee deebise. Yisihaaqis deebisee, “Ibiddii fi qoraan kunoo ti; hoolaan qalma gubamuuf taʼu immoo eessa jira?” jedhe.
8 But Abraham said, “God himself will provide the victim for the holocaust, my son.” Thus they continued on together.
Abrahaamis deebisee, “Yaa ilma ko, Waaqni mataan isaa hoolaa qalma gubamuuf taʼu ni kenna” jedhe. Isaan lamaanis walumaan karaa isaanii itti fufan.
9 And they came to the place that God had shown to him. There he built an altar, and he set the wood in order upon it. And when he had bound his son Isaac, he laid him on the altar upon the pile of wood.
Yeroo iddoo Waaqni isatti hime sana gaʼanitti, Abrahaam iddoo aarsaa achitti ijaaree iddoo aarsaa sana irra qoraan naqe; ilma isaa Yisihaaqin hidhees iddoo aarsaa sana irra qoraan gubbaa ciibse.
10 And he reached out his hand and took hold of the sword, in order to sacrifice his son.
Ergasii inni ilma isaa qaluuf jedhee harka isaa hiixatee billaa fudhate.
11 And behold, an Angel of the Lord called out from heaven, saying, “Abraham, Abraham.” And he answered, “Here I am.”
Ergamaan Waaqayyoo garuu, “Abrahaam! Abrahaam!” jedhee samii keessaa isa waame. Abrahaamis, “Kunoo asan jira” jedhee deebise.
12 And he said to him, “Do not extend your hand over the boy, and do not do anything to him. Now I know that you fear God, since you have not spared your only begotten son for my sake.”
Innis, “Ati harka keetiin gurbicha hin tuqin; waan tokko illee isa hin godhin. Waan ati ilma kee, ilmuma tokkicha anaaf jettee hin mararfatiniif, ani akka ati Waaqa sodaattu amma beekeera” jedhe.
13 Abraham lifted up his eyes, and he saw behind his back a ram among the thorns, caught by the horns, which he took and offered as a holocaust, instead of his son.
Abrahaamis ol ilaalee kunoo korbeessa hoolaa kan gaanfi isaa daggala keessatti qabamee jiru tokko arge; innis dhaqee hoolaa sana fuudhee qooda ilma isaa qalma gubamu godhee dhiʼeesse.
14 And he called the name of that place: ‘The Lord Sees.’ Thus, even to this day, it is said: ‘On the mountain, the Lord will see.’
Kanaafuu Abrahaam iddoo sana “Waaqayyo ni kenna” jedhee moggaase; hamma harʼaatti illee, “Tulluu Waaqayyoo irratti, ni kennama” jedhama.
15 Then the Angel of the Lord called out to Abraham a second time from heaven, saying:
Ergamaan Waaqayyoo sunis samii keessaa lammata Abrahaamin waamee
16 “By my own self, I have sworn, says the Lord. Because you have done this thing, and have not spared your only begotten son for my sake,
akkana jedheen; “Waaqayyo akkana jedha; sababii ati waan kana gootee fi ilma kee, ilmuma kee tokkicha illee na hin dhowwatiniif ani maqaa kootiin nan kakadha;
17 I will bless you, and I will multiply your offspring like the stars of heaven, and like the sand which is on the seashore. Your offspring will possess the gates of their enemies.
ani dhugumaan eebba, sin eebbisa; sanyii kees akkuma urjii samiitii fi akkuma cirracha qarqara galaanaa nan baayʼisa. Sanyiiwwan kees magaalaawwan diina isaanii ni dhuunfatu.
18 And in your offspring, all the nations of the earth will be blessed, because you obeyed my voice.”
Waan ati naa ajajamteef sabni lafa irraa hundinuu karaa sanyii keetiin eebbifama.”
19 Abraham returned to his servants, and they went to Beersheba together, and he lived there.
Ergasii Abrahaam tajaajiltoota isaatti deebiʼe; isaanis walumaan Bersheebaatti qajeelan; Abrahaamis Bersheebaa keessa jiraate.
20 After these things occurred, it was reported to Abraham that Milcah, likewise, had borne sons for his brother Nahor:
Yeroo muraasa booddee akkana jedhamee Abrahaamitti himame; “Kunoo, Miilkaan obboleessa kee Naahooriif ilmaan deesseerti;
21 Uz, the firstborn, and Buz, his brother, and Kemuel, the father of the Syrians,
ilmaan isheen deesses inni hangafni Uuzi, obboleessi isaa Buuz, abbaan Arraam immoo Qamuʼeel,
22 and Chesed, and Hazo, likewise Pildash, and Jidlaph,
Keseedi, Hazoo, Fiildaas, Yiidlaafii fi Betuuʼeel jedhamu.”
23 as well as Bethuel, of whom was born Rebekah. These eight Milcah bore for Nahor, the brother of Abraham.
Betuuʼeel Ribqaa dhalche. Miilkaan isaan kana saddeettan Naahoor obboleessa Abrahaamiif deesse.
24 In truth, his concubine, named Reumah, bore Tebah, and Gaham, and Tahash, and Maacah.
Naahor saajjatoo Reʼuumaa jedhamtu tokko qaba ture; isheen ilmaan Xebaa, Gaham, Tahaashii fi Maʼakaa jedhaman deesseef.
