Genesis 22
1 And it came to pass after these things, that Elohim did tempt Abraham, and said unto him, Abraham: and he said, Behold, here I am.
Nna bi akyi no, Onyankopɔn sɔɔ Abraham hwɛe. Ɔfrɛɛ Abraham se, “Abraham!” Abraham buae se, “Me ni!”
2 And he said, Take now thy son, thine only son Isaac, whom thou lovest, and get thee into the land of Moriah; and offer him there for a burnt offering upon one of the mountains which I will tell thee of.
Onyankopɔn ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Fa wo ba, wo ba koro Isak a wodɔ no no kɔ Moria asase so, na fa no kɔbɔ ɔhyew afɔre wɔ mmepɔw a ɛwɔ hɔ no mu baako a mɛkyerɛ wo no so.”
3 And Abraham rose up early in the morning, and saddled his ass, and took two of his young men with him, and Isaac his son, and clave the wood for the burnt offering, and rose up, and went unto the place of which Elohim had told him.
Abraham sɔree anɔpatutuutu hyehyɛɛ nʼafurum. Ɔfaa ne nkoa no mu baanu ne ne ba Isak kaa ne ho. Otwitwaa ogya a ɛbɛso ɔhyew afɔre no bɔ no, osii mu kɔɔ faako a Onyankopɔn kyerɛɛ no sɛ ɔnkɔ no.
4 Then on the third day Abraham lifted up his eyes, and saw the place afar off.
Ne nnansa so no, Abraham too nʼani huu sɛ baabi a ɔrekɔ no wɔ akyirikyiri.
5 And Abraham said unto his young men, Abide ye here with the ass; and I and the lad will go yonder and worship, and come again to you,
Na Abraham ka kyerɛɛ ne nkoa no se, “Mo ne afurum no ntwɛn wɔ ha, na me ne abarimaa no nkɔ anim kakra nkɔsom. Sɛ yɛsom wie a, yɛbɛsan aba.”
6 And Abraham took the wood of the burnt offering, and laid it upon Isaac his son; and he took the fire in his hand, and a knife; and they went both of them together.
Abraham faa nnyina a wɔde rekɔbɔ ɔhyew afɔre no de soaa ne ba Isak. Na ɔno nso faa ogya ne sekan kurae. Bere a wɔrekɔ no,
7 And Isaac spake unto 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 lamb for a burnt offering?
Isak frɛɛ nʼagya Abraham se, “Agya!” Na Abraham buae se, “Me ba, asɛm bɛn?” Isak bisaa no se, “Ogya ne nnyina no ni, na oguamma a yɛde no rekɔbɔ ɔhyew afɔre no wɔ he?”
8 And Abraham said, My son, Elohim will provide himself a lamb for a burnt offering: so they went both of them together.
Abraham buae se, “Onyankopɔn no ankasa bɛma yɛn afɔre guan no a yɛde rekɔbɔ ɔhyew afɔre no.” Na wɔn baanu no toaa so kɔe.
9 And they came to the place which Elohim had told him of; and Abraham built an altar there, and laid the wood in order, and bound Isaac his son, and laid him on the altar upon the wood.
Wokoduu faako a Onyankopɔn kyerɛɛ no no, Abraham sii afɔremuka wɔ hɔ, hyehyɛɛ nnyina no wɔ so. Ɔkyekyeree ne ba Isak, de no too nnyina no so wɔ afɔremuka no so.
10 And Abraham stretched forth his hand, and took the knife to slay his son.
Abraham twee sekan no, maa so sɛ ɔde rebetwa ne ba no mene akum no.
11 And the angel of YHWH called unto him out of heaven, and said, Abraham, Abraham: and he said, Here am I.
Ɛhɔ ara na Awurade bɔfo frɛɛ no fi ɔsoro se, “Abraham! Abraham!” Na Abraham gyee so se, “Me ni.”
12 And he said, Lay not thine hand upon the lad, neither do thou any thing unto him: for now I know that thou fearest Elohim, seeing thou hast not withheld thy son, thine only son from me.
Awurade bɔfo no kae se, “Mfa wo nsa nka abofra no. Nyɛ no bɔne biara. Esiane sɛ woamfa wo dɔba, wo ba koro no ankame me no nti, mahu sɛ wusuro Onyankopɔn.”
13 And Abraham lifted up his eyes, and looked, and behold behind him a ram caught in a thicket by his horns: and Abraham went and took the ram, and offered him up for a burnt offering in the stead of his son.
Abraham maa nʼani so huu sɛ nkyɛkyerɛ bi aso Odwennini bi mmɛn mu wɔ wura no mu hɔ. Abraham kɔkyeree Odwennini no de no bɔɔ ɔhyew afɔre wɔ afɔremuka no so sii ne ba no anan mu.
14 And Abraham called the name of that place YHWH -Yireh: as it is said to this day, On the mountain YHWH provides.
Abraham too beae no din se Awurade De Bɛma. Ebesi nnɛ no wɔka se, “Wɔde bɛma wɔ Awurade bepɔw no so.”
15 And the angel of YHWH called unto Abraham out of heaven the second time,
Awurade bɔfo no frɛɛ Abraham fii ɔsoro nea ɛto so abien kae se,
16 And said, By myself have I sworn, saith YHWH, for because thou hast done this thing, and hast not withheld thy son, thine only son:
“Maka me ho ntam se, esiane sɛ woayɛ eyi, na woamfa wo ba, wo ba koro no ankame me nti,
17 That in blessing I will bless thee, and in multiplying I will multiply thy seed as the stars of the heaven, and as the sand which is upon the sea shore; and thy seed shall possess the gate of his enemies;
hyira na mehyira wo na mama wʼase adɔ sɛ ɔsoro nsoromma ne mpoano nwea. Na wʼasefo begye wɔn atamfo nkuropɔn adi so.
18 And in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed; because thou hast obeyed my voice.
Wɔnam wʼasefo so na wobehyira wiase amanaman nyinaa, efisɛ woadi mʼasɛm so.”
19 So Abraham returned unto his young men, and they rose up and went together to Beer-sheba; and Abraham dwelt at Beer-sheba.
Na Abraham san kɔɔ nʼasomfo no nkyɛn ne wɔn sii mu kɔɔ Beer-Seba kɔtenaa hɔ.
20 And it came to pass after these things, that it was told Abraham, saying, Behold, Milcah, she hath also born children unto thy brother Nahor;
Nna bi akyi no, wɔka kyerɛɛ Abraham se, “Milka nso yɛ ɔbeatan a wawo mmabarima ama wo nuabarima Nahor:
21 Huz his firstborn, and Buz his brother, and Kemuel the father of Aram,
Us yɛ abakan, Us nuabarima a odi so ne Bus. Kemuel a ɔto so abiɛsa na ɔwoo Aram.
22 And Chesed, and Hazo, and Pildash, and Jidlaph, and Bethuel.
Wɔn a wɔaka no ne Kesed, Haso, Pildas, Yidlaf ne Betuel.”
23 And Bethuel begat Rebekah: these eight Milcah did bear to Nahor, Abraham's brother.
Betuel bɛyɛɛ Rebeka nʼagya. Milka ne Abraham nua Nahor na wɔwowoo saa mmabarima baawɔtwe yi.
24 And his concubine, whose name was Reumah, she bare also Tebah, and Gaham, and Thahash, and Maachah.
Nahor ne ne mpena Rehuma nso woo mma baanan a wɔn din de, Teba, Gaham, Tahas ne Maaka.
