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.”
Depois destas coisas, Deus testou Abraão, e lhe disse: “Abraão!”. Ele disse: “Aqui estou eu”.
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.”
Ele disse: “Agora pegue seu filho, seu único filho, Isaac, a quem você ama, e vá para a terra de Moriah”. Ofereça-o lá como holocausto em uma das montanhas de que lhe falarei”.
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.
Abraão levantou-se cedo pela manhã e selou seu burro; e levou consigo dois de seus jovens e Isaac seu filho. Ele dividiu a madeira para o holocausto, levantou-se e foi para o lugar de que Deus lhe dissera.
4 On the third day of their travels, Abraham looked up and saw in the distance the place where God wanted him to go.
No terceiro dia, Abraão levantou os olhos e viu o lugar distante.
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.”
Abraão disse a seus jovens: “Fiquem aqui com o burro. O garoto e eu iremos até lá”. Vamos adorar, e voltaremos para você”.
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.
Abraão pegou a madeira do holocausto e a colocou sobre Isaac, seu filho. Ele pegou na mão o fogo e a faca. Os dois foram juntos.
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?”
Isaac falou com Abraão, seu pai, e disse: “Meu pai...”. Ele disse: “Aqui estou eu, meu filho”. Ele disse: “Aqui está o fogo e a lenha, mas onde está o cordeiro para um holocausto”?
8 Abraham replied, “My son, God himself will provide the lamb for the burnt offering.” So the two of them continued walking along together.
Abraão disse: “Deus proverá a si mesmo o cordeiro para um holocausto, meu filho”. Então, ambos foram juntos.
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.
Eles vieram ao lugar de que Deus lhe havia falado. Abraão construiu ali o altar, e colocou a madeira em ordem, amarrou Isaque seu filho, e o colocou sobre o altar, sobre a madeira.
10 Then Abraham took the knife and reached out to kill his son.
Abraão estendeu sua mão e pegou a faca para matar seu filho.
11 But an angel [who was really Yahweh] called to him from heaven and said, “Abraham! Abraham!” Abraham replied, “I’m here!”
O anjo de Javé o chamou do céu, e disse: “Abraão, Abraão!” Ele disse: “Aqui estou eu”.
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].”
Ele disse: “Não coloque sua mão sobre o menino ou faça nada com ele”. Por enquanto sei que você teme a Deus, já que não me escondeu seu filho, seu único filho”.
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.
Abraham levantou os olhos, olhou e viu que atrás dele estava um carneiro preso na mata por seus chifres. Abraão foi e pegou o carneiro, e o ofereceu em troca de um holocausto em vez de seu filho.
14 Abraham named that place ‘Yahweh will provide’. And to the present day, people say, “On Yahweh’s mountain, he will provide.”
Abraão chamou o nome daquele lugar de “Yahweh proverá”. Como é dito até hoje, “Na montanha de Yahweh, será providenciado”.
15 The angel [who was really Yahweh] called out to Abraham from heaven a second time.
O anjo de Javé chamou Abraão uma segunda vez do céu,
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,
e disse: “'Jurei por mim mesmo', diz Javé, 'porque você fez esta coisa, e não reteve seu filho, seu único filho,
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].’
que eu o abençoarei muito, e multiplicarei seus descendentes como as estrelas dos céus, e como a areia que está na praia. Sua prole possuirá o portão de seus inimigos.
18 You obeyed me, so by means of your descendants the people of all the nations on the earth will be blessed.”
Todas as nações da terra serão abençoadas por sua descendência, porque você obedeceu à minha voz”.
19 Then Abraham and Isaac returned to where his servants were waiting, and they went back home together to Beersheba, and Abraham stayed there.
Então Abraão voltou para seus jovens, e eles se levantaram e foram juntos para Beersheba. Abraão viveu em Beersheba.
20 After these things happened, someone told Abraham, “Your brother Nahor’s wife, Milcah, has also given birth to children. She has eight sons.”
Depois destas coisas, foi dito a Abraão: “Eis Milcah, ela também deu à luz filhos a seu irmão Nahor:
21 The oldest son was Uz. The next was Buz. After him was Kemuel, the father of Aram.
Uz seu primogênito, Buz seu irmão, Kemuel o pai de Aram,
22 After Kemuel was Kesad, then Hazo, then Pildash, then Jidlaph, then Bethuel,
Chesed, Hazo, Pildash, Jidlaph, e Bethuel”.
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 tornou-se o pai de Rebekah. Estes oito Milcah aborreceram Nahor, irmão de Abraham.
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.
Sua concubina, cujo nome era Reumah, também deu à luz Tebah, Gaham, Tahash, e Maacah.
