Genesis 22
1 And it came to pass after these things, that God did tempt Abraham, and said unto him, Abraham: and he said, Behold, here I am.
Beberapa waktu kemudian Allah menguji kesetiaan Abraham. Allah memanggil, "Abraham!" Lalu Abraham menjawab, "Ya, Tuhan."
2 And he said, Take now your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and get you into the land of Moriah; and offer him there for a burnt offering upon 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 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 God had told 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 Then on the third day Abraham lifted up his eyes, and saw the place far off.
Pada hari yang ketiga tampaklah oleh Abraham tempat itu di kejauhan.
5 And Abraham said unto his young men, Abide all of you here with the ass; and I and the lad will go yonder and worship, and come again 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 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 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 spoke 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?
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 Abraham said, My son, God will provide himself a lamb for a burnt offering: so they went both of them together.
Abraham menjawab, "Allah sendiri akan menyediakan anak domba itu." Lalu keduanya berjalan terus.
9 And they came to the place which God 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.
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 Abraham stretched forth his hand, and took the knife to slay his son.
Setelah itu, diambilnya pisaunya hendak membunuh anaknya.
11 And the angel of the LORD called unto him out of heaven, and said, Abraham, Abraham: and he said, Here am I.
Tetapi malaikat TUHAN berseru kepadanya dari langit, "Abraham, Abraham!" Jawab Abraham, "Ya, Tuhan!"
12 And he said, Lay not your hand upon the lad, neither do you any thing unto him: for now I know that you fear God, seeing you have not withheld your son, your only son from me.
"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 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 position of 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 Abraham called the name of that place Jehovahjireh: as it is said to this day, In the mount of the LORD it shall be 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 the angel of the LORD called unto Abraham out of heaven the second time,
Sekali lagi dari langit malaikat TUHAN berseru kepada Abraham,
16 And said, By myself have I sworn, says the LORD, for because you have done this thing, and have not withheld your son, your only son:
"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 That in blessing I will bless you, and in multiplying I will multiply your seed as the stars of the heaven, and as the sand which is upon the sea shore; and your seed shall possess the gate of his enemies;
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 in your seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed; because you have obeyed my voice.
Semua bangsa di bumi akan memohon kepada-Ku supaya Aku memberkati mereka sebagaimana telah Kuberkati keturunanmu--karena engkau telah mentaati perintah-Ku."
19 So Abraham returned unto his young men, and they rose up and went together to Beersheba; and Abraham dwelt at Beersheba.
Setelah itu kembalilah Abraham kepada kedua hambanya, lalu mereka bersama-sama pergi ke Bersyeba, dan Abraham menetap di sana.
20 And it came to pass after these things, that it was told Abraham, saying, Behold, Milcah, she has also born children unto your brother Nahor;
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 Huz his firstborn, and Buz his brother, and Kemuel the father of Aram,
Us, yang sulung; Bus, adiknya; Kemuel, yang kemudian menjadi ayah Aram;
22 And Chesed, and Hazo, and Pildash, and Jidlaph, and Bethuel.
Kesed, Hazo, Pildas, Yidlaf, dan Betuel,
23 And Bethuel brings forth Rebekah: these eight Milcah did bear to Nahor, Abraham's brother.
yang kemudian menjadi ayah Ribka. Itulah kedelapan anak yang dilahirkan Milka bagi Nahor, saudara Abraham.
24 And his concubine, whose name was Reumah, she bare also Tebah, and Gaham, and Thahash, and Maachah.
Nahor mempunyai selir yang bernama Reuma dan selir itu melahirkan Tebah, Gaham, Tahas dan Maakha.
