< Genesis 22 >
1 Several years later, God tested Abraham [to find out] whether Abraham [really trusted in him and would obey him]. He called out to Abraham, and Abraham replied, “I’m here.”
Thil hijatpi kichai jouvin Pathen in Abraham chu ave patep in aman hitin aseiye, “Vo Abraham,” atile, hikoma kaum e Pakai ati.
2 God said, “Your son, Isaac, whom you love very much, is the only son [who is still here with you]. But take him and go together to the Moriah region. Offer him as a sacrifice like a burnt offering, on a hill that I will show you.”
Hichun Pathen in aseiye, “Nangailut tah na chapa changkhat seh Isaac chu pui jin lang Moriah gam'a chen kei man kahin seipeh ding molsang khat pen pen chunga chu pumgo thilto maicham adin pedoh tan,” ati.
3 So Abraham got up early the next morning, put a saddle on his donkey, and took with him two of his servants along with his son, Isaac. He also chopped some wood to kindle a fire for a burnt offering. Then they started traveling to the place God told him about.
Chuti chun Abraham chu jingkah matah in athoudoh in asanngan teni akigon tup in chule asoh pasal ni akipui'in achapa Isaac apuiyin, pumgo thilto agovamsa ding in thing akipoh in akipat doh in Pathen in aseipeh na mun chu ajon tai.
4 On the third day of their travels, Abraham looked up and saw in the distance the place where God wanted him to go.
Ani thum chanan Abraham chu adah in aven ahile amun chu gal'a kon in amu tai.
5 Abraham said to his servants, “You two stay here with the donkey while the boy and I go over there. We will worship God there, and then we will come back to you.”
Abraham'in asoh teni jah a aseiyin, “Nangni hikoma hin sangan toh ana um tauvin, keile ka chapa khulam akhun gache lhon tadinge, Pathen kaga hou lhon ding kahung kinung le vah lhon ding ahi.”
6 Then Abraham took the wood to kindle a fire for the burnt offering and placed it on his son Isaac, for him to carry. Abraham carried in his hand a [pan containing burning coals to start a] fire, and a knife, and the two of them walked along together.
Abraham'in thinglom maicham a pumgo thilto halna ding chu Isaac apohsah in chule achempai achoi jin amani hiti chun akijot lhon in achelhon tai.
7 Then Isaac spoke to his father Abraham, saying, “My father!” Abraham replied, “Yes, my son, I’m here!” Isaac said, “Look, we have wood and [coals to light] a fire, but where is the lamb for the burnt offering?”
Chuin Isaac in apa Abraham jah'a “Hepa” atile Abraham'in jong “Hoijo kacha” ati, hichun Isaac in “Veteh mei le thinglom la aumtan, pumgo thilto kelngoi hoiba ham?” ati le.
8 Abraham replied, “My son, God himself will provide the lamb for the burnt offering.” So the two of them continued walking along together.
Abraham'in adonbut in “Pathen ama tah in hin gong nante, kelngoi pumgo maicham adin, kachapa deitah,” hichun amani achebe lhon in ahi.
9 They arrived at the place God had told him about. There, Abraham built a stone altar and arranged the wood on top of it. Then he tied his son Isaac, and laid him on the altar on top of the wood.
Pathen in Abraham aseipeh na mun ahung lhun lhon phat in Abraham chun maicham khat asem in, thinglom chu agol chan ajam'in chuin achapa Isaac chu aheltum in maicham chunga alup sah tai.
10 Then Abraham took the knife and reached out to kill his son.
Hichun aman achem chu apaiya kon in aladon in, achapa chu sut agon akilam tai,
11 But an angel [who was really Yahweh] called to him from heaven and said, “Abraham! Abraham!” Abraham replied, “I’m here!”
Hinlah vana konin Pakai vantil in “Abraham, Abraham” tin ahin kouvin ahile, Abraham'in “Pakai keima hikoma ka um'e,” ati.
12 The angel said, “Do not harm the boy or do anything to injure him, because now I know that you respect and obey God. I know that because you have not refused to sacrifice your son, the only son [who is still with you].”
Ama chun “chapang pa chunga na khut nalha lou hel ding, imacha jong nalo lou ding ahi, Ajeh chu Pathen na gin jeh-in nangman na chapa chang khat seh jeng jong keima adin na khut kih poi, tihi tun kichen tah in kahe doh tai,” ati.
13 Then Abraham looked up and saw that a ram was nearby, whose horns had been caught in a (thicket/clump of bushes). So Abraham went over and grabbed the ram [and killed it], and sacrificed it on the altar as a burnt offering, instead of his son.
Chuin Abraham adah doh in avet leh, “Vetan anung langa nanglom laha kelngoi chal khat akia kihen amun ahi,” hichun Abraham jong achen kelngoi chal chu aga kaiyin achapa khel chun maicham thilto chun atoh'in ahi.
14 Abraham named that place ‘Yahweh will provide’. And to the present day, people say, “On Yahweh’s mountain, he will provide.”
Hijeh chun Abraham'in hiche mun chu Pathen in hin ngaito nante tin asahtai (Yahweh-Yireh), tuni geihin hiche “Pathen'in amolsang chung ah hin kingaito nante,” ti thuchih hi akisei jing nalaiye.
15 The angel [who was really Yahweh] called out to Abraham from heaven a second time.
Pakai vantil chun vanna konin Abraham tin a nivei na a ahin koukit in ahi.
16 He said, “I, Yahweh your Lord, am telling you that you did what I told you, and you have not refused to sacrifice your only son [that is with you]. So I say, ‘I solemnly swear, with myself as my witness,
Hitin aseiye, “Keima ka tahsa tah a ka kihahsel ahitai, hitobang a thilhi nabol ngam jenga na chapa chang khat seh chunga khut kih louva napan jeng phat-in tin Pakaiyin aseiye.
17 that some day your descendants will be as numerous as the stars in the sky and the grains of sand on the seashore. And your descendants will defeat their enemies and capture their cities [SYN].’
Keiman kitah tah a phatthei ka boh ding nahi, chule na chilhahte chunga ahsi jat ka phahsah ding chule vadung panga neldi jat ka sosah ding nahi, na chilhah ten amelma teu kelkot ahin toupha diu ahiye.
18 You obeyed me, so by means of your descendants the people of all the nations on the earth will be blessed.”
Chule nangman ka thusei nangai jeh a leiset chunga namtin vaipi na son na chilhah te vanga phatthei hung kiboh ding ahiuve,” ati.
19 Then Abraham and Isaac returned to where his servants were waiting, and they went back home together to Beersheba, and Abraham stayed there.
Hichun Abraham'in asohpa kom langa ahung kinungle in, chuin amaho Beersheba lam ajon un, hichea chun Abraham chu Beersheba a aum tai.
20 After these things happened, someone told Abraham, “Your brother Nahor’s wife, Milcah, has also given birth to children. She has eight sons.”
Phat chomkhat jou chun Abraham chu thu aseipeh un Milcah jong hin nasopi pa Nahor to cha pasal phachompi ahing lhone.
21 The oldest son was Uz. The next was Buz. After him was Kemuel, the father of Aram.
Uz chu atahpen ahin, Buz hi anichan na ahin, Ram hingpa Kemuel ahin,
22 After Kemuel was Kesad, then Hazo, then Pildash, then Jidlaph, then Bethuel,
Chesed ahin, Hazo ahin, Pildash ahin, Jidlaph ahin chule Bethuel ahi uve,” ati.
23 who was the father of Rebekah, [who later became Isaac’s wife]. Those were the eight sons of Milcah, wife of Abraham’s brother, Nahor.
Bethuel chun Rebekah ahing'e. Abraham sopipa Nahor chu Milcah cha hicheng get hi ana hin peh e.
24 Nahor also had a (concubine/female slave whom he took as a wife), whose name was Beumah. She gave birth to four sons: Tebah, Gaham, Tahash, and Maacah.
Hicheng val in jong athai-kemnu amin Reumah kiti nu jong chun Tebah toh, Gaham toh, Tahash toh chule Maacah ana hing'e.
