< Kinohi 22 >
1 MAHOPE mai o ia mau mea, hoao mai la ke Akua ia Aberahama, i mai la ia ia, E Aberahama: i aku la kela, Eia no wau.
Some time later God tested Abraham and said to him, “Abraham!” “Here I am,” he answered.
2 I mai la oia, E lawe aku oe i kau keiki i kau ponoi, ia Isaaka, i kau mea au e aloha nei, a e hele aku oe i ka aina o Moria; malaila oe e kaumaha aku ai ia ia i mohaikuni maluna o kekahi puu a'u e hoike aku ai ia oe.
“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 Ala ae la o Aberahama i kakahiaka nui, hoee aku la ia i ka noho maluna o kona hoki, kono pu ae la i na kanaka ui elua ona me ia, a me Isaaka kana keiki, kaka iho la i ka wahie no ka mohaikuni, ku ae la a hele aku la i kahi a ke Akua i i mai ai ia ia.
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 I ke kolu o ka la alawa ae la na maka o Aberahama, a ike aku la ia wahi mamao aku.
On the third day Abraham looked up and saw the place in the distance.
5 I aku la o Aberahama i kona mau kanaka ui, E noho iho olua maanei me ka hoki, a hele no maua me ke keiki i o e hoomana ai; a hoi hou mai io olua nei.
“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 Lawe ae la o Aberahama i ka wahie no ka mohaikuni, a kau iho la maluna o kana keiki o Isaaka, lawe aku la ia i ke ahi, a me ka pahi ma kona lima, a haele pu aku la laua.
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 Olelo aku la o Isaaka i kona makuakane, ia Aberahama, E kuu makua: i mai la kela, Eia wan, e kuu keiki. I aku la ia, Eia ke ahi, a me ka wahie; auhea hoi ke keikihipa i mohaikuni?
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 I mai la o Aberahama, E kuu keiki, na ke Akua no e hoomakaukau i keikihipa nana i mohaikuni: a haele pu aku la laua.
Abraham answered, “God Himself will provide the lamb for the burnt offering, my son.” And the two walked on together.
9 A hiki aku la laua i kahi a ke Akua i i mai ai ia ia; hana iho la o Aberahama i kuahu ilaila, kau pono aku la i ka wahie maluna, hikii iho la ia i kana keiki ia Isaaka, a kau aku la ia ia ma ke kuahu maluna o ka wahie.
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 O aku la ko Aberahama lima, a lalau i ka pahi e pepehi i kana keiki.
Then Abraham reached out his hand and took the knife to slaughter his son.
11 Kahea mai la ka anela o Iehova mai ka lani mai, i mai la, E Aberahama! e Aberahama! I aku la kela, Eia wau.
Just then the angel of the LORD called out to him from heaven, “Abraham, Abraham!” “Here I am,” he replied.
12 I mai la ia, Mai kau aku oe i kou lima maluna o ke keiki, aole hoi e mea iki aku ia ia: no ka mea, ke ike nei au, ua makau oe i ke Akua: no ka mea, aole oe i aua i kau keiki, i kau keiki ponoi ia'u.
“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 Alawa ae la na maka o Aberahama iluna, ike aku la, aia hoi, ma kona kua he hipakane, ua hihia kona pepeiaohao i ka nahelehele: hele aku la o Aberahama, lalau aku la i ua hipakane la, a kaumaha aku la ia ia i mohaikuni, i kala no kana keiki.
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 Kapa aku la o Aberahama i ka inoa o ia wahi, O Iehova-iire: me ia i oleloia mai ai a hiki i keia la, Ma ka mauna o Iehova e hoomakaukauia'i.
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 Kahea hou mai la ka anela o Iehova ia Aberahama mai ka lani mai,
And the angel of the LORD called to Abraham from heaven a second time,
16 I mai la, Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova, Ma o'u nei au i hoohiki iho ai, no kau hana ana i keia mea, aole hoi i aua i kau keiki, i kau keiki ponoi;
saying, “By Myself I have sworn, declares the LORD, that because you have done this and have not withheld your only son,
17 E hoopomaikai nui aku no au ia oe, a e hoonui loa aku hoi au i kau poe mamo e like me na hoku o ka lani, a me na one ma kahakai; a e lilo auanei i kau poe mamo ka ipuka o kona poe enemi:
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 A ma kou mamo e hoopomaikaiia'i na lahuikanaka a pau o ka honua; no ka mea, ua hoolohe mai oe i ko'u leo.
And through your offspring all nations of the earth will be blessed, because you have obeyed My voice.”
19 Hoi hou aku la o Aberahama i kona mau kanaka ui, ku ae la laua a hele pu aku la i Beereseba: a noho iho la o Aberahama i Beereseba.
Abraham went back to his servants, and they got up and set out together for Beersheba. And Abraham settled in Beersheba.
20 Mahope mai o ia mau mea, haiia mai ia Aberahama, i ka i ana mai, Aia hoi, o Mileka, ua hanau no hoi oia i na keiki na kou kaikuaana na Nahora;
Some time later, Abraham was told, “Milcah has also borne sons to your brother Nahor:
21 O Huza kana hiapo, o Buza kona kaikaina, a o Kemuela ka makuakane o Arama,
Uz the firstborn, his brother Buz, Kemuel (the father of Aram),
22 O Keseda, a o Hazo, a o Piledasa, a o Iidelapa, a o Betuela.
Chesed, Hazo, Pildash, Jidlaph, and Bethuel.”
23 Na Betuela o Rebeka: o keia mau mea ewalu ka Mileka i hanau ai na Nahora ke kaikuaana o Aberahama.
And Bethuel became the father of Rebekah. Milcah bore these eight sons to Abraham’s brother Nahor.
24 Na kana haiawahine hoi, o Reuma kona inoa, nana hoi i hanau mai o Teba, o Gehama, o Tahasa, a o Maaka.
Moreover, Nahor’s concubine, whose name was Reumah, bore Tebah, Gaham, Tahash, and Maacah.
