< Genesis 22 >

1 In kutu pacl tok, God El srikal Abraham. El pangnol, “Abraham!” Ac Abraham el topuk, “Nga inge.”
And it comes to pass after these things that God has tried Abraham and says to him, “Abraham”; and he says, “Here I [am].”
2 God El fahk, “Eisal Isaac, wen sefanna nutum su kom arulana kuloi, ac som nwe in facl Moriah. Ke kom ac sun acn we, na kom fah kisakunulma in mwe kisa firir nu sik fin soko eol su nga ac akkalemye nu sum.”
And He says, “Now take your son, your only one, whom you have loved, even Isaac, and go for yourself to the land of Moriah, and cause him to ascend there for a burnt-offering on one of the mountains of which I speak to you.”
3 Toangna in lotu tok ah, Abraham el telak etong mwe orek kisa, ac sang nu fin donkey natul ah. Na el eisal Isaac ac mwet kulansap luo welul, ac elos som nu yen se ma God El fahk mu elan som nu we ah.
And Abraham rises early in the morning, and saddles his donkey, and takes two of his young men with him, and his son Isaac, and he cleaves the wood of the burnt-offering, and rises and goes to the place of which God has spoken to him.
4 Ke len se aktolu ah, Abraham el liyauk acn sac, ohkokme emeeto.
On the third day—Abraham lifts up his eyes, and sees the place from afar;
5 Na el fahk nu sin mwet kulansap luo ah, “Muta inse wi donkey uh. Nga, ac tulik se nutik inge, ac som nu meet ah in alu, ac kut ac fah foloko.”
and Abraham says to his young men, “Remain by yourselves here with the donkey, and I and the youth go over there and worship, and return to you.”
6 Abraham el sang Isaac elan us etong nu ke kisa uh, ac el us mitmit se ac mulut firir mwe tanak e uh. Ac ke eltal tukeni fahsr,
And Abraham takes the wood of the burnt-offering, and places on his son Isaac, and he takes in his hand the fire, and the knife; and they go on both of them together.
7 Isaac el kasla ac fahk, “Papa!” Ac el topuk, “Mea?” Isaac el siyuk, “Efu ku oasr etong ac mulut kut us, a pia sheep fusr mwe kisa an?”
And Isaac speaks to his father Abraham and says, “My father,” and he says, “Here I [am], my son.” And he says, “Behold, the fire and the wood, and where the lamb for a burnt-offering?”
8 Ac Abraham el fahk, “God El ac fah ase.” Na eltal tukenina fahsr.
And Abraham says, “God provides for Himself the lamb for a burnt-offering, my son”; and they go on both of them together.
9 Ke eltal tuku nu ke acn se ma God El fahk nu sel kac, Abraham el etoak loang se ac takunla etong ah fac. El kapriya wen se natul ah, ac likilya fin etong ma oan fin loang ah.
And they come to the place of which God has spoken to him, and there Abraham builds the altar, and arranges the wood, and binds his son Isaac, and places him on the altar above the wood;
10 Na el srukak mitmit sac in unilya.
and Abraham puts forth his hand, and takes the knife—to slaughter his son.
11 Tusruktu lipufan lun LEUM GOD el pang nu sel inkusrao me, “Abraham, Abraham!” Ac el topuk, “Nga pa inge.”
And the Messenger of YHWH calls to him from the heavens and says, “Abraham, Abraham”; and he says, “Here I [am]”;
12 Na lipufan sac fahk, “Nimet kom kahlya tulik sacn ku oru kutena ma nu sel. Inge nga etu lah kom akfulatye God ac akos ma El sapkin, mweyen kom tia sruokya wen sefanna nutum an lukel.”
and He says, “Do not put forth your hand to the youth, nor do anything to him, for now I have known that you are fearing God, and have not withheld your son, your only one, from Me.”
13 Abraham el ngetnget nwe liyauk sheep mukul soko, sremla koacl ke sripin sak se. El som sruokya ac kisakin tuh in sie mwe kisa firir in aolla wen natul.
And Abraham lifts up his eyes, and looks, and behold, a ram behind, seized in a thicket by its horns; and Abraham goes, and takes the ram, and causes it to ascend for a burnt-offering instead of his son;
14 Abraham el sang inen acn sac, “LEUM GOD El Ase.” Fahsru nwe misenge, mwet uh srakna fahk ouinge, “Fineol sin LEUM GOD, El fah ase.”
and Abraham calls the name of that place “YHWH-Jireh,” because it is said this day in the mountain, “YHWH provides.”
15 Lipufan lun LEUM GOD el pang nu sel Abraham inkusrao me pacl se akluo
And the Messenger of YHWH calls to Abraham a second time from the heavens,
16 ac fahk, “LEUM GOD El fahk ouinge: ‘Nga orala sie wuleang ke Inek sifacna lah nga fah arulana akinsewowoye kom. Ke sripen kom tuh oru ma se inge, ac tia seko wen sefanna nutum,
and says, “I have sworn by Myself—a declaration of YHWH—that because you have done this thing, and have not withheld your son, your only one,
17 nga wuleot nu sum lah nga ac fah akpusye fita nutum in pukanten oana itu inkusrao ku puk wekof uh. Fwilin tulik nutum ac fah kutangla mwet lokoalok lalos.
that blessing I bless you, and multiplying I multiply your seed as stars of the heavens, and as sand which [is] on the seashore; and your Seed possesses the gate of His enemies;
18 Mutanfahl nukewa ac fah siyuk sik in akinsewowoyalos oana ke nga akinsewowoye fita lom. Ma inge nukewa ma na ke sripen kom tuh akos ma nga sapkin.’”
and all nations of the earth have blessed themselves in your Seed, because you have listened to My voice.”
19 Abraham el folokla nu yurin mwet kulansap lal, ac elos tukeni som nu Beersheba, yen Abraham el muta we.
And Abraham turns back to his young men, and they rise and go together to Beer-Sheba; and Abraham dwells in Beer-Sheba.
20 In kutu pacl tok, Abraham el lohngak lah Milcah el oswela tulik oalkosr nu sel Nahor, tamulel lal Abraham:
And it comes to pass after these things that it is declared to Abraham, saying, “Behold, Milcah has borne, even she, sons to your brother Nahor:
21 Uz wounse, Buz tamulel lal, Kemuel papa tumal Aram,
his firstborn Huz, and his brother Buz; and Kemuel father of Aram,
22 Chesed, Hazo, Pildash, Jidlaph, ac Bethuel
and Chesed, and Hazo, and Pildash, and Jidlaph, and Bethuel;
23 papa tumal Rebecca. Milcah el oswela wen oalkosr inge nu sel Nahor, tamulel lal Abraham.
and Bethuel has begotten Rebekah”; Milcah has borne these eight to Nahor, Abraham’s brother;
24 Reumah, mutan kulansap kial Nahor, el oswella Tebah, Gaham, Tahash, ac Maacah.
and his concubine, whose name [is] Reumah, she also has borne Tebah, and Gaham, and Tahash, and Maachah.
