< Jenesis 22 >
1 Hagi mago'a kafua agateretegeno Anumzamo'a Abrahamuna reheno kenaku anage hu'ne, Abrahamuo higeno, ama mani'noe huno Abrahamu'a hu'ne.
Several years later, God tested Abraham [to find out] whether Abraham [really trusted in him and would obey him]. He called out to Abraham, and Abraham replied, “I’m here.”
2 Anumzamo'a anage huno asami'ne, Magoke mofavre, kavesi kavesi hunentana mofavrea Aisakina avrenka Morea moparega vuo, Nagrama kaverisua agonare anantega agrira ome ahenka tevefi Kresramana vuo.
God said, “Your son, Isaac, whom you love very much, is the only son [who is still here with you]. But take him and go together to the Moriah region. Offer him as a sacrifice like a burnt offering, on a hill that I will show you.”
3 Higeno amenantera Abrahamu'a otino donki afura azeri retro nehuno, Kresramana vu tevea ape huno krevare'are enerino, tare eri'za vahe'ane mofavre'a Aisakine zamavareno, Anumzamo asmi'nea kotega vu'naze.
So Abraham got up early the next morning, put a saddle on his donkey, and took with him two of his servants along with his son, Isaac. He also chopped some wood to kindle a fire for a burnt offering. Then they started traveling to the place God told him about.
4 Tare zagegna agateregeno, anante knarera Abrahamu'a nevuno kesga huno anama asmi'nea kokana ke'ne.
On the third day of their travels, Abraham looked up and saw in the distance the place where God wanted him to go.
5 Agra eri'za vahetrema'agura amanage hu'ne, Amare donki afura anteta mani'neke'na nagrane ne'ni'ane anturega vuta Anumzamofona mono ome hunteteta ete egahu'e.
Abraham said to his servants, “You two stay here with the donkey while the boy and I go over there. We will worship God there, and then we will come back to you.”
6 Abrahamu'a Kresramana vu teve erino Aisaki kofinenteno, agra'a hugre tevene, kazine erige'ne vu'na'e. Zanagra kantega nevu'ne,
Then Abraham took the wood to kindle a fire for the burnt offering and placed it on his son Isaac, for him to carry. Abraham carried in his hand a [pan containing burning coals to start a] fire, and a knife, and the two of them walked along together.
7 Aisaki'a anage huno nefana antahige'ne, Nenfao, higeno Abrahamu huno, voe, higeno, Hugre tevene, kre tevene eri'noe. Hagi inantegati Kresramana vu lama afura erigahu'e? Huno Aisaki'a antahige'ne.
Then Isaac spoke to his father Abraham, saying, “My father!” Abraham replied, “Yes, my son, I’m here!” Isaac said, “Look, we have wood and [coals to light] a fire, but where is the lamb for the burnt offering?”
8 Higeno Abrahamu'a kenona huno, Anumzamo Kresramanavu lama afura tamigahie, huno higeke vu'na'e.
Abraham replied, “My son, God himself will provide the lamb for the burnt offering.” So the two of them continued walking along together.
9 Anumzamo'ma asami'nea kaziga unehanati'ne, Abrahamu'a have erino ita tro huno teve hanavazine. Ana huteno nemofo, Aisakina agare azante nofi anakinteteno, ana ita agofetu azeri sga humasente'ne.
They arrived at the place God had told him about. There, Abraham built a stone altar and arranged the wood on top of it. Then he tied his son Isaac, and laid him on the altar on top of the wood.
10 Abrahamu'a kazima'a erino Aisakina kazi refriku nehigeno,
Then Abraham took the knife and reached out to kill his son.
11 monafinkati Ra Anumzamofo ankeromo kezatino, Abrahamuo! Abrahamuo! Higeno Abrahamu'a huno, Ama mani'noe.
But an angel [who was really Yahweh] called to him from heaven and said, “Abraham! Abraham!” Abraham replied, “I’m here!”
12 Higeno ankeromo'a huno, Mofavremofo avufgarera kazana onto, mago'zana huonto. Menima kagri'ma kagentoana Nagrite kamentinti nehunka, Anumzamofonku kore nehane. Na'ankure Nagri'ma nami'zantera magoke mofavreka'a aze'orinane.
The angel said, “Do not harm the boy or do anything to injure him, because now I know that you respect and obey God. I know that because you have not refused to sacrifice your son, the only son [who is still with you].”
13 Higeno Abrahamu'a kesga huno osi zafa titipafi ve rama afumo pazive'afi rusi hu'negeno ke'ne. Ana ve rama afu ome azerino mofavre'amofo nona'a aheno tevefi kre fananehu ofa hu'ne.
Then Abraham looked up and saw that a ram was nearby, whose horns had been caught in a (thicket/clump of bushes). So Abraham went over and grabbed the ram [and killed it], and sacrificed it on the altar as a burnt offering, instead of his son.
14 Abrahamu'a ana agonagura Ra Anumzamo tamigahie huno agi'a ante'ne. Hankino eno menima mani'nona knafinena, Ra Anumzamofo agonare tamigahie hu'za nehaze.
Abraham named that place ‘Yahweh will provide’. And to the present day, people say, “On Yahweh’s mountain, he will provide.”
15 Ra Anumzamofo ankeromo monafinkati Abrahamunku mago'ene kezatino,
The angel [who was really Yahweh] called out to Abraham from heaven a second time.
16 Anage hu'ne, Nagrani'a Ra Anumzamo'na hankavenentake ke nehue, na'ankure ke'nia erizafa nehunka ne'mofavreka'a, magoke ne'mofavrea azeorinane.
He said, “I, Yahweh your Lord, am telling you that you did what I told you, and you have not refused to sacrifice your only son [that is with you]. So I say, ‘I solemnly swear, with myself as my witness,
17 Nagra asomu huneganta'nena kagri kagehe'impintira fore huhakare hu'za monafinka hanafi ene hagerinkenafi kasepankna nehanage'za, ha' vahe'zmi ranra kumara eri nafa'a hugahaze.
that some day your descendants will be as numerous as the stars in the sky and the grains of sand on the seashore. And your descendants will defeat their enemies and capture their cities [SYN].’
18 Na'ankure kagri kagehe'impinti mika kokankoka vahe'mo'za asomura erigahaze. Na'ankure nagri ke'mofo avaririnanku anara hugahue.
You obeyed me, so by means of your descendants the people of all the nations on the earth will be blessed.”
19 Anage hutegeno, Abrahamu'ene Aisakikea eri'za ne'trentega ake'za, maka'mo'za kuma zamirega Berseba vu'naze. Abrahamu'a anante Berseba rama'a kna mani'ne.
Then Abraham and Isaac returned to where his servants were waiting, and they went back home together to Beersheba, and Abraham stayed there.
20 Hagi mago'a kna evutege'za, Abrahamuna eme asamiza, Negafu Nahori nenaro Milka'a mago'a ne'mofavre'zaga kasezmante'ne hu'za eme asami'naze.
After these things happened, someone told Abraham, “Your brother Nahor’s wife, Milcah, has also given birth to children. She has eight sons.”
21 Ana mofavremokizmi zamagi'a, Uzi'a pusa nere, Buzi'a agri negna'e, magora Kemuelikino Aramu nefa'e.
The oldest son was Uz. The next was Buz. After him was Kemuel, the father of Aram.
22 Hagi mago'a mofavre nagara Keseti'e, Hazori'e Pildasi'e, Judlafi'e, Betueli'e.
After Kemuel was Kesad, then Hazo, then Pildash, then Jidlaph, then Bethuel,
23 Hagi Betueli'a Rebeka nefa'e. Milka'a, Nahorintetira 8'a ne'mofavre zaga zamante'ne. Nahori'a Abrahamuna nefu'e.
who was the father of Rebekah, [who later became Isaac’s wife]. Those were the eight sons of Milcah, wife of Abraham’s brother, Nahor.
24 Hanki Nahorina mago kazokzo eri'za a'mofo agi'a Reumakino, Nahorintetira Teba anteno, Gahamu anteno, Tahasi anteno, Makakizmi zamante'ne.
Nahor also had a (concubine/female slave whom he took as a wife), whose name was Beumah. She gave birth to four sons: Tebah, Gaham, Tahash, and Maacah.
