Genesis 22
1 And it came to pass after these things, that God tried Abraham, and said to him, Abraham! and he said, Here am I.
Et il arriva, après ces choses, que Dieu éprouva Abraham, et lui dit: Abraham! Et il dit: Me voici.
2 And he said, Take now thy son, thine only [son], whom thou lovest, Isaac, and get thee into the land of Moriah, and there offer him up for a burnt-offering on one of the mountains which I will tell thee of.
Et [Dieu] dit: Prends ton fils, ton unique, celui que tu aimes, Isaac, et va-t’en au pays de Morija, et là offre-le en holocauste, sur une des montagnes que je te dirai.
3 And Abraham rose early in the morning, and saddled his ass, and took two of his young men with him, and Isaac his son; and he clave the wood for the burnt-offering, and rose up and went to the place that God had told him of.
Et Abraham se leva de bon matin et bâta son âne et prit avec lui deux de ses jeunes hommes, et Isaac, son fils; et il fendit le bois pour l’holocauste, et se leva, et s’en alla vers le lieu que Dieu lui avait dit.
4 On the third day Abraham lifted up his eyes and saw the place from afar.
Le troisième jour, Abraham leva ses yeux, et vit le lieu de loin.
5 And Abraham said to his young men, Abide ye here with the ass; and I and the lad will go yonder and worship, and come again to you.
Et Abraham dit à ses jeunes hommes: Restez ici, vous, avec l’âne; et moi et l’enfant nous irons jusque-là, et nous adorerons; et nous reviendrons vers vous.
6 And Abraham took the wood of the burnt-offering, and laid it on Isaac his son; and he took the fire in his hand, and the knife, and they went both of them together.
Et Abraham prit le bois de l’holocauste, et le mit sur Isaac, son fils; et il prit dans sa main le feu et le couteau; et ils allaient les deux ensemble.
7 And Isaac spoke to Abraham his father, and said, My father! And he said, Here am I, my son. And he said, Behold the fire and the wood; but where is the sheep for a burnt-offering?
Et Isaac parla à Abraham, son père, et dit: Mon père! Et il dit: Me voici, mon fils. Et il dit: Voici le feu et le bois; mais où est l’agneau pour l’holocauste?
8 And Abraham said, My son, God will provide himself with the sheep for a burnt-offering. And they went both of them together.
Et Abraham dit: Mon fils, Dieu se pourvoira de l’agneau pour l’holocauste. Et ils allaient les deux ensemble.
9 And they came to the place of which God had told him. And Abraham built the altar there, and piled the wood; and he bound Isaac his son, and laid him on the altar upon the wood.
Et ils arrivèrent au lieu que Dieu lui avait dit. Et Abraham bâtit là l’autel, et arrangea le bois, et lia Isaac, son fils, et le mit sur l’autel, sur le bois.
10 And Abraham stretched out his hand, and took the knife to slaughter his son.
Et Abraham étendit sa main et prit le couteau pour égorger son fils.
11 And the Angel of Jehovah called to him from the heavens, and said, Abraham, Abraham! And he said, Here am I.
Mais l’Ange de l’Éternel lui cria des cieux, et dit: Abraham! Abraham! Et il dit: Me voici.
12 And he said, Stretch not out thy hand against the lad, neither do anything to him; for now I know that thou fearest God, and hast not withheld thy son, thine only [son], from me.
Et il dit: N’étends pas ta main sur l’enfant, et ne lui fais rien; car maintenant je sais que tu crains Dieu, et que tu ne m’as pas refusé ton fils, ton unique.
13 And Abraham lifted up his eyes, and looked, and behold, behind was a ram caught in the thicket by its horns; and Abraham went and took the ram, and offered it up for a burnt-offering instead of his son.
Et Abraham leva ses yeux, et vit, et voici, il y avait derrière [lui] un bélier retenu à un buisson par les cornes; et Abraham alla et prit le bélier, et l’offrit en holocauste à la place de son fils.
14 And Abraham called the name of that place Jehovah-jireh; as it is said at the present day, On the mount of Jehovah will be provided.
Et Abraham appela le nom de ce lieu-là: Jéhovah-Jiré, comme on dit aujourd’hui: En la montagne de l’Éternel il y sera pourvu.
15 And the Angel of Jehovah called to Abraham from the heavens a second time,
Et l’Ange de l’Éternel cria des cieux à Abraham, une seconde fois,
16 and said, By myself I swear, saith Jehovah, that, because thou hast done this, and hast not withheld thy son, thine only [son],
et dit: J’ai juré par moi-même, dit l’Éternel: Parce que tu as fait cette chose-là, et que tu n’as pas refusé ton fils, ton unique,
17 I will richly bless thee, and greatly multiply thy seed, as the stars of heaven, and as the sand that is on the sea-shore; and thy seed shall possess the gate of his enemies;
certainement je te bénirai, et je multiplierai abondamment ta semence comme les étoiles des cieux et comme le sable qui est sur le bord de la mer; et ta semence possédera la porte de ses ennemis.
18 and in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth bless themselves, because thou hast hearkened to my voice.
Et toutes les nations de la terre se béniront en ta semence, parce que tu as écouté ma voix.
19 And Abraham returned to his young men, and they rose up and went together to Beer-sheba. And Abraham dwelt at Beer-sheba.
Et Abraham retourna vers ses jeunes hommes; et ils se levèrent, et s’en allèrent ensemble à Beër-Shéba; et Abraham habita à Beër-Shéba.
20 And it came to pass after these things, that it was told Abraham, saying, Behold, Milcah, she also has borne sons to thy brother Nahor:
Et il arriva, après ces choses, qu’on rapporta à Abraham en disant: Voici, Milca, elle aussi, a enfanté des enfants à Nakhor, ton frère:
21 Uz his first-born, and Buz his brother, and Kemuel the father of Aram,
Uts, son premier-né; et Buz, son frère; et Kemuel, père d’Aram;
22 and Chesed, and Hazo, and Pildash, and Jidlaph, and Bethuel.
et Késed, et Hazo, et Pildash, et Jidlaph, et Bethuel.
23 (And Bethuel begot Rebecca.) These eight Milcah bore to Nahor, Abraham's brother.
Or Bethuel engendra Rebecca. Milca enfanta ces huit à Nakhor, frère d’Abraham.
24 And his concubine, named Reumah, she also bore Tebah, and Gaham, and Thahash, and Maacah.
Et sa concubine, nommée Reüma, elle aussi enfanta Tébakh, et Gakham, et Thakhash, et Maaca.
