Genèse 22
1 Après cela, Dieu mit Abraham à l'épreuve et lui dit: " Abraham! " Il répondit: " Me voici. "
It happened after these things, that God tested Abraham, and said to him, "Abraham, Abraham." He said, "Here I am."
2 Et Dieu dit: " Prends ton fils, ton unique, celui que tu aimes, Isaac, et va-t'en au pays de Moria, et là offre-le en holocauste sur l'une des montagnes que je t'indiquerai. "
He said, "Now take your son, your only one, whom you love, even Isaac, and go into the land of Moriah. Offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains which I will tell you of."
3 Abraham se leva de bon matin et, ayant sellé son âne, il prit avec lui deux de ses serviteurs et son fils Isaac; il fendit le bois de l'holocauste et partit pour aller au lieu que Dieu lui avait dit.
Abraham rose early in the morning, and saddled his donkey, and took two of his young men with him, and Isaac his son. He split the wood for the burnt offering, and rose up, and went to the place of which God had told him.
4 Le troisième jour, Abraham, levant les yeux, aperçut le lieu de loin;
On the third day Abraham lifted up his eyes, and saw the place far off.
5 et Abraham dit à ses serviteurs: " Restez ici avec l'âne; moi et l'enfant, nous voulons aller jusque-là et adorer, puis nous reviendrons vers vous. "
Abraham said to his young men, "Stay here with the donkey. The boy and I will go over there, and we will worship, and come back to you."
6 Et Abraham prit le bois de l'holocauste, et le mit sur Isaac, son fils, lui-même portait dans sa main le feu et le couteau, et ils s'en allèrent tous deux ensemble.
Abraham took the wood of the burnt offering and laid it on Isaac his son. He took in his hand the fire and the knife. They both went together.
7 Isaac parla à Abraham, son père, et dit: " Mon père! " Il répondit: " Me voici, mon fils. " Et Isaac dit: " Voici le feu et le bois; mais où est l'agneau pour l'holocauste? "
Isaac spoke to Abraham his father, and said, "My father?" He said, "Here I am, my son." He said, "Here is the fire and the wood, but where is the lamb for a burnt offering?"
8 Abraham répondit: " Dieu verra à trouver l'agneau pour l'holocauste, mon fils. " Et ils allaient tous deux ensemble.
Abraham said, "God will provide himself the lamb for a burnt offering, my son." So they both went together.
9 Lorsqu'ils furent arrivés au lieu que Dieu lui avait désigné, Abraham y éleva l'autel et arrangea le bois; puis il lia Isaac, son fils, et le mit sur l'autel, au-dessus du bois.
They came to the place which God had told him of. Abraham built the altar there and arranged the wood, and bound his son Isaac and placed him on the altar, on top of the wood.
10 Et Abraham étendit la main et prit le couteau pour égorger son fils.
Abraham reached out his hand, and took the knife to kill his son.
11 Alors l'ange de Yahweh lui cria du ciel et dit: " Abraham! Abraham! " Il répondit: " Me voici. "
But an angel of God called to him out of the sky, and said, "Abraham, Abraham." And he said, "Here I am."
12 Et l'ange dit: " Ne porte pas la main sur l'enfant et ne lui fais rien; car je sais maintenant que tu crains Dieu et que tu ne m'as pas refusé ton fils, ton unique. "
He said, "Do not lay your hand on the boy, neither do anything to him. For now I know that you fear God, seeing you have not withheld your son, your only one, from me."
13 Abraham, ayant levé les yeux, vit derrière lui un bélier pris dans un buisson par les cornes; et Abraham alla prendre le bélier et l'offrit en holocauste à la place de son fils.
And Abraham looked up and saw behind him a ram caught in the thicket by his horns. And Abraham went and took the ram, and offered him up as a burnt offering instead of his son.
14 Et Abraham nomma ce lieu: " Yahweh-Yiréh ", d'où l'on dit aujourd'hui: " Sur la montagne de Yahweh, il sera vu. "
Abraham called the name of that place Elohim Yireh. As it is said to this day, "On the mountain, God will provide."
15 L'ange de Yahweh appela du ciel Abraham une seconde fois, en disant:
The angel of God called to Abraham a second time out of the sky,
16 " Je l'ai juré par moi-même, dit Yahweh: parce que tu as fait cela, et que tu ne m'as pas refusé ton fils, ton unique,
and said, "I have sworn by myself," says Jehovah, "because you have done this thing, and have not withheld your son, your only one, from me,
17 je te bénirai; je multiplierai ta postérité comme les étoiles du ciel et comme le sable qui est au bord de la mer, et ta postérité possédera la porte de ses ennemis.
I will indeed bless you, and I will greatly multiply your offspring like the stars of the sky, and like the sand which is on the seashore; and your offspring will possess the gate of their enemies.
18 En ta postérité seront bénies toutes les nations de la terre, parce que tu as obéi à ma voix. "
And through your offspring all the nations of the earth will be blessed, because you have obeyed my voice."
19 Abraham retourna vers ses serviteurs et, s'étant levés, ils s'en allèrent ensemble à Bersabée. Et Abraham habita à Bersabée.
So Abraham returned to his young men, and they rose up and went together to Beersheba. Abraham lived at Beersheba.
20 Après ces événements, on apporta à Abraham cette nouvelle: " Voici, Melcha a aussi enfanté des fils à Nachor, ton frère:
It happened after these things, that it was told Abraham, saying, "Look, Milcah also has borne children to your brother Nahor:
21 Hus, son premier-né, Buz, son frère, Camuel, père d'Aram,
Uz his firstborn, Buz his brother, Kemuel the father of Aram,
22 Cased, Azau, Pheldas, Jedlaph et Bathuel. "
Kesed, Hazo, Pildash, Jidlaph, and Bethuel."
23 Bathuel fut père de Rébecca. Ce sont là les huit fils que Melcha enfanta à Nachor, frère d'Abraham.
Bethuel became the father of Rebekah. These eight Milcah bore to Nahor, Abraham's brother.
24 Sa concubine, nommée Roma, eut aussi des enfants: Tabée, Gaham, Taas et Maacha.
His secondary wife, whose name was Reumah, also bore Tebah, Gaham, Tahash, and Maacah.
