< Farawa 22 >

1 Bayan abubuwan nan suka faru, sai Allah ya gwada Ibrahim. Ya ce masa, “Ibrahim!” Ibrahim ya amsa ya ce, “Ga ni.”
Some time later God tested Abraham and said to him, “Abraham!” “Here I am,” he answered.
2 Sai Allah ya ce, “Ka ɗauki ɗanka, makaɗaicin ɗanka Ishaku, wanda kake ƙauna, ka tafi yankin Moriya, ka miƙa shi hadaya ta ƙonawa a can a kan ɗaya daga cikin duwatsun da zan nuna maka.”
“Take your son,” God said, “your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah. Offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains, which I will show you.”
3 Kashegari da sassafe, Ibrahim ya tashi ya ɗaura wa jakinsa sirdi. Ya ɗauki bayinsa biyu, da ɗansa Ishaku. Bayan ya faskare isashen itace saboda hadaya ta ƙonawa sai ya kama hanya zuwa wurin da Allah ya faɗa masa.
So Abraham got up early the next morning, saddled his donkey, and took along two of his servants and his son Isaac. He split the wood for a burnt offering and set out for the place God had designated.
4 A rana ta uku Ibrahim ya ɗaga ido sai ya ga wurin daga nesa.
On the third day Abraham looked up and saw the place in the distance.
5 Ibrahim ya ce wa bayinsa, “Ku tsaya a nan da jakin, ni da yaron kuwa mu haura can. Za mu yi sujada sa’an nan mu komo wurinku.”
“Stay here with the donkey,” Abraham told his servants. “The boy and I will go over there to worship, and then we will return to you.”
6 Ibrahim ya ɗauki itace saboda hadaya ta ƙonawa ya ɗora wa ɗansa Ishaku, shi kuwa ya riƙe wuƙa da wutar. Yayinda su biyun suke tafiya,
Abraham took the wood for the burnt offering and placed it on his son Isaac. He himself carried the fire and the sacrificial knife, and the two of them walked on together.
7 sai Ishaku ya yi tambaya, ya ce wa mahaifinsa Ibrahim, “Baba?” Ibrahim ya ce masa, “Na’am ɗana!” Ishaku ya ce, “Ga dai wuta, ga kuma itace, amma ina ɗan ragon hadaya ta ƙonawa?”
Then Isaac said to his father Abraham, “My father!” “Here I am, my son,” he replied. “The fire and the wood are here,” said Isaac, “but where is the lamb for the burnt offering?”
8 Ibrahim ya amsa ya ce, “Ɗana, Allah kansa zai tanada ɗan ragon hadayar ƙonawa.” Sai su biyu suka ci gaba da tafiya.
Abraham answered, “God Himself will provide the lamb for the burnt offering, my son.” And the two walked on together.
9 Sa’ad da suka isa wurin da Allah ya faɗa masa, sai Ibrahim ya gina bagade a can, ya kuma shisshirya itacen a kai. Ya ɗaura ɗansa Ishaku, ya kwantar da shi a kan itacen, a bisa bagaden.
When they arrived at the place God had designated, Abraham built the altar there and arranged the wood. He bound his son Isaac and placed him on the altar, atop the wood.
10 Sa’an nan Ibrahim ya miƙa hannunsa ya ɗauki wuƙar don yă yanka ɗansa.
Then Abraham reached out his hand and took the knife to slaughter his son.
11 Amma mala’ikan Ubangiji ya kira shi daga sama ya ce, “Ibrahim, Ibrahim!” Sai Ibrahim ya amsa ya ce, “Ga ni.”
Just then the angel of the LORD called out to him from heaven, “Abraham, Abraham!” “Here I am,” he replied.
12 Mala’ikan ya ce, “Kada ka yi wa yaron nan rauni. Kada kuma ka ji masa ciwo. Yanzu na san cewa kana tsoron Allah, gama ba ka hana ni ɗanka, makaɗaicin ɗanka ba.”
“Do not lay a hand on the boy or do anything to him,” said the angel, “for now I know that you fear God, since you have not withheld your only son from me.”
13 Ibrahim ya ɗaga ido, ya duba, sai ya ga rago da ƙahoninsa a kafe a wani ɗan kurmi. Sai Ibrahim ya tafi ya kamo ragon ya miƙa shi hadaya ta ƙonawa a maimakon ɗansa.
Then Abraham looked up and saw behind him a ram in a thicket, caught by its horns. So he went and took the ram and offered it as a burnt offering in place of his son.
14 Ibrahim kuwa ya ba wa wurin suna, Ubangiji Zai Tanada. Gama kamar yadda ake ce har yă zuwa yau, “A bisan dutsen Ubangiji, za a tanada.”
And Abraham called that place The LORD Will Provide. So to this day it is said, “On the mountain of the LORD it will be provided.”
15 Mala’ikan Ubangiji ya kira Ibrahim daga sama sau na biyu
And the angel of the LORD called to Abraham from heaven a second time,
16 ya ce, “Na rantse da kaina, in ji Ubangiji, domin ka yi wannan, ba ka kuwa hana ni ɗanka, makaɗaicin ɗanka ba,
saying, “By Myself I have sworn, declares the LORD, that because you have done this and have not withheld your only son,
17 tabbatacce zan albarkace ka, zan kuma sa zuriyarka su yi yawa kamar taurari a sararin sama, kamar kuma yashi a bakin teku. Zuriyarka za su mallaki biranen abokan gābansu,
I will surely bless you, and I will multiply your descendants like the stars in the sky and the sand on the seashore. Your descendants will possess the gates of their enemies.
18 ta wurin zuriyarka kuma dukan al’umman duniya za su sami albarka, domin ka yi mini biyayya.”
And through your offspring all nations of the earth will be blessed, because you have obeyed My voice.”
19 Sa’an nan Ibrahim ya koma wurin bayinsa, suka kuma kama hanya tare zuwa Beyersheba. Ibrahim kuwa ya yi zamansa a Beyersheba.
Abraham went back to his servants, and they got up and set out together for Beersheba. And Abraham settled in Beersheba.
20 Bayan wani ɗan lokaci, sai aka faɗa wa Ibrahim cewa, “Ga shi, Milka ita ma ta haifa wa Nahor ɗan’uwanka,’ya’ya maza;
Some time later, Abraham was told, “Milcah has also borne sons to your brother Nahor:
21 ɗan fari shi ne Uz, ɗan’uwansa kuma Buz, Kemuwel (shi ne mahaifin Aram),
Uz the firstborn, his brother Buz, Kemuel (the father of Aram),
22 Kesed, Hazo, Fildash; Yidlaf, da kuma Betuwel.”
Chesed, Hazo, Pildash, Jidlaph, and Bethuel.”
23 Betuwel ya haifi Rebeka. Milka ta haifa wa Nahor ɗan’uwan Ibrahim waɗannan’ya’ya maza takwas.
And Bethuel became the father of Rebekah. Milcah bore these eight sons to Abraham’s brother Nahor.
24 Ban da haka ma, ƙwarƙwararsa, mai suna Reyuma, ta haifa masa’ya’ya maza, Teba, Gaham, Tahash da kuma Ma’aka.
Moreover, Nahor’s concubine, whose name was Reumah, bore Tebah, Gaham, Tahash, and Maacah.
