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.
Quae postquam gesta sunt, tentavit Deus Abraham, et dixit ad eum: Abraham, Abraham. At ille respondit: Adsum.
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.
Ait illi: Tolle filium tuum unigenitum, quem diligis, Isaac, et vade in terram visionis: atque ibi offeres eum in holocaustum super unum montium quem monstravero tibi.
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.
Igitur Abraham de nocte consurgens, stravit asinum suum: ducens secum duos iuvenes, et Isaac filium suum: cumque concidisset ligna in holocaustum, abiit ad locum quem praeceperat ei Deus.
4 On the third day Abraham lifted up his eyes and saw the place from afar.
Die autem tertio, elevatis oculis, vidit locum procul:
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.
dixitque ad pueros suos: Expectate hic cum asino: ego autem et puer illuc usque properantes, postquam adoraverimus, revertemur ad vos.
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.
Tulit quoque ligna holocausti, et imposuit super Isaac filium suum: ipse vero portabat in manibus ignem et gladium. Cumque duo pergerent simul,
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?
dixit Isaac patri suo: Pater mi. At ille respondit: Quid vis fili? Ecce, inquit, ignis et ligna: ubi est victima holocausti?
8 And Abraham said, My son, God will provide himself with the sheep for a burnt-offering. And they went both of them together.
Dixit autem Abraham: Deus providebit sibi victimam holocausti, fili mi. Pergebant ergo pariter:
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 venerunt ad locum quem ostenderat ei Deus, in quo aedificavit altare, et desuper ligna composuit: cumque alligasset Isaac filium suum, posuit eum in altare super struem lignorum.
10 And Abraham stretched out his hand, and took the knife to slaughter his son.
Extenditque manum, et arripuit gladium, ut immolaret filium suum.
11 And the Angel of Jehovah called to him from the heavens, and said, Abraham, Abraham! And he said, Here am I.
Et ecce Angelus Domini de caelo clamavit, dicens: Abraham, Abraham. Qui respondit: Adsum.
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.
Dixitque ei: Non extendas manum tuam super puerum, neque facias illi quidquam: nunc cognovi quod timeas Dominum, et non pepercisti unigenito filio tuo propter me.
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.
Levavit Abraham oculos suos, viditque post tergum arietem inter vepres haerentem cornibus, quem assumens obtulit holocaustum pro filio.
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.
Appellavitque nomen loci illius, Dominus videt. Unde usque hodie dicitur: In monte Dominus videbit.
15 And the Angel of Jehovah called to Abraham from the heavens a second time,
Vocavit autem Angelus Domini Abraham secundo de caelo, dicens:
16 and said, By myself I swear, saith Jehovah, that, because thou hast done this, and hast not withheld thy son, thine only [son],
Per memetipsum iuravi, dicit Dominus: quia fecisti hanc rem, et non pepercisti filio tuo unigenito propter me:
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;
benedicam tibi, et multiplicabo semen tuum sicut stellas caeli, et velut arenam quae est in littore maris: possidebit semen tuum portas inimicorum suorum,
18 and in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth bless themselves, because thou hast hearkened to my voice.
et BENEDICENTUR in semine tuo omnes gentes terrae, quia obedisti voci meae.
19 And Abraham returned to his young men, and they rose up and went together to Beer-sheba. And Abraham dwelt at Beer-sheba.
Reversus est Abraham ad pueros suos, abieruntque Bersabee simul, et habitavit ibi.
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:
His itaque gestis, nunciatum est Abrahae quod Melcha quoque genuisset filios Nachor fratri suo,
21 Uz his first-born, and Buz his brother, and Kemuel the father of Aram,
Hus primogenitum, et Buz fratrem eius, et Camuel patrem Syrorum,
22 and Chesed, and Hazo, and Pildash, and Jidlaph, and Bethuel.
et Cased, et Azau, Pheldas quoque et Iedlaph,
23 (And Bethuel begot Rebecca.) These eight Milcah bore to Nahor, Abraham's brother.
ac Bathuel, de quo nata est Rebecca: octo istos genuit Melcha, Nachor fratri Abrahae.
24 And his concubine, named Reumah, she also bore Tebah, and Gaham, and Thahash, and Maacah.
Concubina vero illius, nomine Roma, peperit Tabee, et Gaham, et Thahas, et Maacha.
