< Jenèz 22 >
1 Alò, li te vin pase apre bagay sa yo, ke Bondye te fè Abraham pase yon eprèv. Li te di li: “Abraham!” Epi li te reponn: “Men mwen”.
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].
2 Li te di: “Pran koulye a fis ou a, sèl fis ou a, ke ou renmen an, Isaac, epi ale nan peyi Morija. Ofri li la kòm yon ofrann ki brile, sou youn nan mòn yo ke Mwen va di ou yo.”
And he said, Take now thy son, thine only [son] Isaac, whom thou lovest, and get thee into the land of Moriah; and offer him there for a burnt offering upon one of the mountains which I will tell thee of.
3 Alò, Abraham te leve granmmaten. Li te sele bourik li, e li te pran de nan jennonm sèvitè li yo avè l, ansanm avèk Isaac, fis li a. Konsa, yo te fann bwa pou ofrann brile a, e yo te leve ale nan plas kote Bondye te di li a.
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.
4 Nan twazyèm jou a, Abraham te leve zye li, e li te wè plas la nan yon distans.
Then on the third day Abraham lifted up his eyes, and saw the place afar off.
5 Abraham te di a jèn sèvitè li yo: “Rete isit la avèk bourik la. Mwen menm avèk jènjan an va ale lòtbò a. Nou va adore, e retounen bò kote nou.”
And Abraham said unto his young men, Abide ye here with the ass; and I and the lad will go yonder and worship, and come again to you.
6 Abraham te pran bwa dife pou ofrann brile a. Li te poze li sou Isaac, fis li a, e li te pran nan men l dife ak kouto a. Epi yo de a te mache avanse ansanm.
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.
7 Isaac te pale avèk papa li, Abraham, e te di li: “Papa m!” Epi li te reponn: “Men mwen, fis mwen.” Konsa, li te di l: “Gade, men dife a avèk bwa, men kote jèn mouton an ye pou fè sakrifis la?”
And Isaac spake 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?
8 Abraham te di: “Bondye va fè pwovizyon Li menm pou jèn mouton an, fis mwen.” Epi yo de a te mache avanse ansanm.
And Abraham said, My son, God will provide himself a lamb for a burnt offering: so they went both of them together.
9 Alò yo rive nan plas ke Bondye te di li a, epi Abraham te bati yon lotèl la. Li te ranje bwa, li te mare fis li a, Isaac, e li te poze li sou lotèl la anwo tout bwa yo.
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.
10 Abraham te lonje men l, e li te pran kouto a pou touye fis li a.
And Abraham stretched forth his hand, and took the knife to slay his son.
11 Men zanj SENYÈ a te rele li depi nan syèl la e te di: “Abraham, Abraham!” Li te reponn: “Men mwen isit la.”
And the angel of the LORD called unto him out of heaven, and said, Abraham, Abraham: and he said, Here [am] I.
12 Li te di: “Pa lonje men ou kont jènjan an, ni pa fè l anyen. Paske koulye a Mwen konnen ke ou krent Bondye, akoz ke ou pa t refize bay fis ou a, sèl fis ou ban Mwen an.”
And he said, Lay not thine hand upon the lad, neither do thou any thing unto him: for now I know that thou fearest God, seeing thou hast not withheld thy son, thine only [son] from me.
13 Alò, Abraham te leve zye li pou te gade, e byen wè, yon belye ki te kenbe pa kòn li, nan yon rakbwa. Abraham te ale pran belye a, e li te ofri li kòm ofrann brile a nan plas a fis li a.
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 stead of his son.
14 Abraham te rele non plas sa a Jehova-Jiré, Bondye Va Fè Pwovizyon. Jis jounen jodi a, yo kon di, “Nan mòn SENYÈ a, va gen pwovizyon.”
And Abraham called the name of that place Jehovah-jireh: as it is said [to] this day, In the mount of the LORD it shall be seen.
15 Alò, zanj SENYÈ a te rele Abraham yon dezyèm fwa soti nan syèl la,
And the angel of the LORD called unto Abraham out of heaven the second time,
16 e te di: “Pou kont Mwen menm, Mwen te sèmante, deklare SENYÈ a, akoz ou te fè bagay sa a, e ou pa t refize fis ou a, sèl fis inik ou an,
And said, By myself have I sworn, saith the LORD, for because thou hast done this thing, and hast not withheld thy son, thine only [son: ]
17 anverite Mwen va beni ou anpil. Mwen va miltipliye posterite ou tankou zetwal syèl yo, ak tankou grenn sab lanmè ki arebò lanmè yo, epi posterite ou va posede pòtay lènmi pa yo.
That in blessing I will bless thee, and in multiplying I will multiply thy seed as the stars of the heaven, and as the sand which [is] upon the sea shore; and thy seed shall possess the gate of his enemies;
18 Nan posterite ou, tout nasyon sou latè yo va beni, akoz ke ou te obeyi vwa Mwen.”
And in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed; because thou hast obeyed my voice.
19 Epi Abraham te retounen vè jèn sèvitè yo. Yo te leve e te ale ansanm Beer-Schéba. Konsa, Abraham te rete Beer-Schéba.
So Abraham returned unto his young men, and they rose up and went together to Beer-sheba; and Abraham dwelt at Beer-sheba.
20 Li te vin rive apre bagay sa yo ke yo te pale ak Abraham e te di: “Gade byen, Milca osi te fè pitit pou frè ou, Nahor:
And it came to pass after these things, that it was told Abraham, saying, Behold, Milcah, she hath also born children unto thy brother Nahor;
21 Uts se premye ne li, epi Buz frè li, avèk Kemuel, papa Aram nan
Huz his firstborn, and Buz his brother, and Kemuel the father of Aram,
22 epi Késed, Hazo, Pildasch, Jidlaph, ak Bethuel.”
And Chesed, and Hazo, and Pildash, and Jidlaph, and Bethuel.
23 Bethuel te vin papa Rebecca. Uit de Milcah sa yo te fè pitit pou Nahor, frè Abraham nan.
And Bethuel begat Rebekah: these eight Milcah did bear to Nahor, Abraham’s brother.
24 Konkibin li ki te rele Réuma, osi te fè Thébach, Gaham, Tahasch, ak Maaca.
And his concubine, whose name [was] Reumah, she bare also Tebah, and Gaham, and Thahash, and Maachah.
