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 prove Abraham, —and he said unto him, Abraham! And he said Behold me!
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, I pray thee, thy son, thine only one, whom thou lovest, even, Isaac, and get thee into the land of Moriah and cause him to ascend there as an ascending-sacrifice, on one of the mountains which I shall name unto thee.
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.
So Abraham rose early in the morning, and saddled his ass, and took his two young men with him, and Isaac his son, and clave the pieces of wood for an ascending-sacrifice, and mounted and went his way unto the place which God had named to him.
4 Nan twazyèm jou a, Abraham te leve zye li, e li te wè plas la nan yon distans.
It was, on the third day, that 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—Tarry by yourselves here with the ass, but I and the young man must go yonder, —that we may bow ourselves down and return unto 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.
So Abraham took the pieces of wood for the ascending-sacrifice, and laid them on Isaac his son, and took in his own hand the fire and the knife, and they went on their way, 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?”
Then said Isaac unto Abraham his father, then said he; My father! And he said, Behold me, my son, And he said, Behold the fire, and the pieces of wood, —but where is the lamb, for an ascending-sacrifice?
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, God, will provide for himself the lamb for an ascending-sacrifice, my son! So they went on their way, 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.
Then came they into the place which God had named to him, and Abraham built there the altar, and laid in order the pieces of wood, and bound Isaac his son, and laid him on the altar, above the pieces of wood.
10 Abraham te lonje men l, e li te pran kouto a pou touye fis li a.
And Abraham put 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.”
Then called out unto him the messenger of Yahweh out of the heavens, and said. Abraham, Abraham! And he said Behold me!
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.”
Then he said, Do not put forth thy hand unto the young man, neither do to him—anything at all, —for, now, know I that one who reverest God, thou art, when thou hast not withheld thy son, thine only one, 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 lo! a ram, behind, caught in a thicket by his horns, and Abraham went, and took the ram, and caused him to ascend as an ascending-sacrifice instead 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.”
So Abraham called the name of that place Yahweh-yireh, —as to which it is still said to-day, In the mountain of Yahweh, will provision be made.
15 Alò, zanj SENYÈ a te rele Abraham yon dezyèm fwa soti nan syèl la,
Then called out the messenger of Yahweh unto Abraham, —a second time out of the heavens;
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 is the oracle of Yahweh, —Because thou hast done this thing, and hast not withheld thy son, thine only one,
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 I will, richly bless, thee, and, abundantly multiply, thy seed, as the stars of the heavens, and as the sand which is on the lip of the sea, —that thy seed may take possession of the gate of his foes:
18 Nan posterite ou, tout nasyon sou latè yo va beni, akoz ke ou te obeyi vwa Mwen.”
So shall all the nations of the earth bless themselves in thy seed, —Because thou didst hearken unto 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 mounted, and went on their way together unto Beer-sheba, —and Abraham dwelt in 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 also, hath borne sons, to Nahor thy brother:
21 Uts se premye ne li, epi Buz frè li, avèk Kemuel, papa Aram nan
Uz his firstborn and Buz his brother, —and Kemuel, 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, hath begotten Rebekah, —These eight, hath Milcah borne to Nahor brother of Abraham.
24 Konkibin li ki te rele Réuma, osi te fè Thébach, Gaham, Tahasch, ak Maaca.
And his concubine, whose name was Reumah, she also, hath borne Tebah and Gaham, and Tahash, and Maacah.
