Jenèz 22
1 Apre tout bagay sa yo, Bondye sonde Abraram pou wè sou ki pye li ye avè l'. Bondye rele l' -Abraram! Abraram! Abraram reponn-Men mwen wi!
And it came to pass after these things that God tempted Abraam, and said to him, Abraam, Abraam; and he said, Behold! I [am here].
2 Bondye di l': -Pran Izarak, pitit ou a, sèl pitit gason ou genyen an, pitit ou renmen anpil la. Ale nan peyi Morija, w'a moute sou tèt mòn mwen pral moutre ou la. Lè w'a rive la, w'a touye l'. Apre sa, w'a boule l' nèt pou mwen.
And he said, Take your son, the beloved one, whom you have loved—Isaac, and go into the high land, and offer him there for a whole burnt offering on one of the mountains which I will tell you of.
3 Nan denmen maten, bonè bonè, Abraram leve, li sele bourik li, li pran Izarak ansanm ak de nan domestik li yo. Li fann kèk moso bwa pou l' fè dife pou boule vyann bèt l'ap ofri a. Epi li pati nan direksyon kote Bondye te di l' la.
And Abraam rose up in the morning and saddled his ass, and he took with him two servants, and Isaac his son, and having split wood for a whole burnt offering, he arose and departed, and came to the place of which God spoke to him,
4 Sou twa jou, Abraram gade, li wè kote a yon bon ti bout devan l'.
on the third day; and Abraam having lifted up his eyes, saw the place afar off.
5 Abraram di domestik li yo. -Nou menm, mesye, rete isit la ak bourik la. Mwen menm ak ti gason an, nou pral jouk lòt bò a, pou nou fè sèvis pou Bondye. Apre sa, n'a tounen vin jwenn nou.
And Abraam said to his servants, Sit you here with the ass, and I and the lad will proceed thus far, and having worshipped we will return to you.
6 Abraram pran bwa pou fè dife a, li bay Izarak pote li. Li menm, li pote bagay pou limen dife a ansanm ak yon kouto nan men l'. Yo tout de pati ansanm.
And Abraam took the wood of the whole burnt offering, and laid it on Isaac his son, and he took into his hands both the fire and the knife, and the two went together.
7 Pandan y'ap mache konsa, Izarak di Abraram: -Papa! Abraram reponn: -Wi, pitit mwen! Izarak mande l': -Mwen wè ou gen dife ak bwa. Men, kote mouton pou boule a?
And Isaac said to Abraam his father, Father. And he said, What is it, son? And he said, Behold the fire and the wood, where is the sheep for a whole burnt offering?
8 Abraram reponn: -Pitit mwen, se sou kont Bondye sa ye. Yo toude t'ap kontinye mache ansanm.
And Abraam said, God will provide himself a sheep for a whole burnt offering, [my] son. And both having gone together,
9 Lè yo rive kote Bondye te di l' la, Abraram moute yon lotèl, li ranje bwa yo sou li. Li mare Izarak, pitit gason l' lan, li mete l' sou lotèl la, anwo bwa yo.
came to the place which God spoke of to him; and there Abraam built the altar, and laid the wood on it, and having bound the feet of Isaac his son together, he laid him on the altar upon the wood.
10 Apre sa, li lonje men l', li pran kouto a pou l' koupe kou ti gason an.
And Abraam stretched forth his hand to take the knife to kill his son.
11 Men, zanj Bondye a rete nan syèl la, li rele l': -Abraram! Abraram! Abraram reponn. -Men mwen wi!
And an angel of the Lord called him out of heaven, and said, Abraam, Abraam. And he said, Behold, I [am here].
12 Zanj lan di l' -Pa leve men ou sou ti gason an. Pa fè l' anyen. Koulye a mwen konnen ou gen krentif pou Bondye vre, paske ou pa t' derefize touye sèl pitit gason ou lan pou mwen.
And he said, Lay not your hand upon the child, neither do anything to him, for now I know that you fear God, and for my sake you have not spared your beloved son.
13 Abraram voye je l', li wè yon belye mouton ki te gen kòn li yo makònen nan yon lyann. li ale, li pran mouton an, li touye l', li boule li nèt sou lotèl la pou Bondye nan plas pitit li a.
And Abraam lifted up his eyes and saw, and behold! a ram caught by his horns in a plant of Sabec; and Abraam went and took the ram, and offered him up for a whole burnt offering in the place of Isaac his son.
14 Abraram rele kote sa a: Se sou kont Seyè a sa ye. Se poutèt sa, jouk jòdi a, moun ap repete: Sou mòn Seyè a, tout bagay sou kont li.
And Abraam called the name of that place, The Lord has seen; that they might say today, In the mount the Lord was seen.
15 Zanj Bondye a rete nan syèl la, li pale ak Abraram yon dezyèm fwa, li di l' konsa:
And an angel of the Lord called Abraam the second time out of heaven, saying, I have sworn by myself, says the Lord, because you have done this thing, and on my account have not spared your beloved son,
16 -Mwen sèmante sou tèt mwen. Se mwen menm Seyè a ki di sa. Mwen gen pou m' beni ou anpil poutèt sa ou fè a. Ou pa t' refize ban mwen pitit ou a, sèl pitit gason ou genyen an.
surely blessing I will bless you, and multiplying I will multiply your seed as the stars of heaven, and as the sand which is by the shore of the sea, and your seed shall inherit the cities of their enemies.
17 Mwen pwomèt pou m' ba ou anpil pitit pitit. Y'ap tankou zetwal nan syèl la, tankou grenn sab bò lanmè. Y'a bat tout lènmi yo.
And in your seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed, because you have listened to my voice.
18 Gremesi tout pitit pitit ou yo, tout nasyon sou latè pral jwenn benediksyon. Wi, yo tout, paske ou te fè sa m' te mande ou fè a.
And Abraam returned to his servants, and they arose and went together to the well of the oath; and Abraam lived at the well of the oath.
19 Abraram tounen bò kote domestik li yo, domestik yo pati ansanm avè l' pou peyi Bècheba, kote Abraram te rete a.
And it came to pass after these things, that it was reported to Abraam, saying, Behold, Melcha herself too has born sons to Nachor your brother,
20 Apre tout bagay sa yo, yo vin di Abraram konsa: -Tande non. Milka fè pitit tout wi pou Nak, frè ou la.
Uz the firstborn, and Baux his brother, and Camuel the father of the Syrians, and Chazad, and
21 Premye pitit la rele Ouz. Apre li, vini Bouz, Kemwèl, papa Aram,
Azav and Phaldes, and Jeldaph, and Bathuel, and Bathuel begot Rebecca;
22 Kesèd, Azò, Pildach, Jidlaf ak Betwèl.
these are eight sons, which Melcha bore to Nachor the brother of Abraam.
23 Se Betwèl ki papa Rebeka. Se wit gason sa yo Milka te fè pou Nakò, frè Abraram lan.
And his concubine whose name was Rheuma, she also bore Tabec, and Taam, and Tochos, and Mocha.
24 Reouma, fanm kay Nakò a te fè pitit tout pou li: se te Tebak, Gam, Tach ak Maka.
