Genesis 22
1 quae postquam gesta sunt temptavit Deus Abraham et dixit ad eum Abraham ille respondit adsum
And it came to pass after these things that God tempted Abraam, and said to him, Abraam, Abraam; and he said, Behold! I [am here].
2 ait ei tolle filium tuum unigenitum quem diligis Isaac et vade in terram Visionis atque offer eum ibi holocaustum super unum montium quem monstravero tibi
And he said, Take your son, the beloved one, whom you have loved—Isaac, and go into the high land, and offer him there for a whole burnt offering on one of the mountains which I will tell you of.
3 igitur Abraham de nocte consurgens stravit asinum suum ducens secum duos iuvenes et Isaac filium suum cumque concidisset ligna in holocaustum abiit ad locum quem praeceperat ei Deus
And Abraam rose up in the morning and saddled his ass, and he took with him two servants, and Isaac his son, and having split wood for a whole burnt offering, he arose and departed, and came to the place of which God spoke to him,
4 die autem tertio elevatis oculis vidit locum procul
on the third day; and Abraam having lifted up his eyes, saw the place afar off.
5 dixitque ad pueros suos expectate hic cum asino ego et puer illuc usque properantes postquam adoraverimus revertemur ad vos
And Abraam said to his servants, Sit you here with the ass, and I and the lad will proceed thus far, and having worshipped we will return to you.
6 tulit quoque ligna holocausti et inposuit super Isaac filium suum ipse vero portabat in manibus ignem et gladium cumque duo pergerent simul
And Abraam took the wood of the whole burnt offering, and laid it on Isaac his son, and he took into his hands both the fire and the knife, and the two went together.
7 dixit Isaac patri suo pater mi at ille respondit quid vis fili ecce inquit ignis et ligna ubi est victima holocausti
And Isaac said to Abraam his father, Father. And he said, What is it, son? And he said, Behold the fire and the wood, where is the sheep for a whole burnt offering?
8 dixit Abraham Deus providebit sibi victimam holocausti fili mi pergebant ergo pariter
And Abraam said, God will provide himself a sheep for a whole burnt offering, [my] son. And both having gone together,
9 veneruntque ad locum quem ostenderat ei Deus in quo aedificavit altare et desuper ligna conposuit cumque conligasset Isaac filium suum posuit eum in altari super struem lignorum
came to the place which God spoke of to him; and there Abraam built the altar, and laid the wood on it, and having bound the feet of Isaac his son together, he laid him on the altar upon the wood.
10 extenditque manum et arripuit gladium ut immolaret filium
And Abraam stretched forth his hand to take the knife to kill his son.
11 et ecce angelus Domini de caelo clamavit dicens Abraham Abraham qui respondit adsum
And an angel of the Lord called him out of heaven, and said, Abraam, Abraam. And he said, Behold, I [am here].
12 dixitque ei non extendas manum tuam super puerum neque facias illi quicquam nunc cognovi quod timeas Dominum et non peperceris filio tuo unigenito propter me
And he said, Lay not your hand upon the child, neither do anything to him, for now I know that you fear God, and for my sake you have not spared your beloved son.
13 levavit Abraham oculos viditque post tergum arietem inter vepres herentem cornibus quem adsumens obtulit holocaustum pro filio
And Abraam lifted up his eyes and saw, and behold! a ram caught by his horns in a plant of Sabec; and Abraam went and took the ram, and offered him up for a whole burnt offering in the place of Isaac his son.
14 appellavitque nomen loci illius Dominus videt unde usque hodie dicitur in monte Dominus videbit
And Abraam called the name of that place, The Lord has seen; that they might say today, In the mount the Lord was seen.
15 vocavit autem angelus Domini Abraham secundo de caelo dicens
And an angel of the Lord called Abraam the second time out of heaven, saying, I have sworn by myself, says the Lord, because you have done this thing, and on my account have not spared your beloved son,
16 per memet ipsum iuravi dicit Dominus quia fecisti rem hanc et non pepercisti filio tuo unigenito
surely blessing I will bless you, and multiplying I will multiply your seed as the stars of heaven, and as the sand which is by the shore of the sea, and your seed shall inherit the cities of their enemies.
17 benedicam tibi et multiplicabo semen tuum sicut stellas caeli et velut harenam quae est in litore maris possidebit semen tuum portas inimicorum suorum
And in your seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed, because you have listened to my voice.
18 et benedicentur in semine tuo omnes gentes terrae quia oboedisti voci meae
And Abraam returned to his servants, and they arose and went together to the well of the oath; and Abraam lived at the well of the oath.
19 reversus est Abraham ad pueros suos abieruntque Bersabee simul et habitavit ibi
And it came to pass after these things, that it was reported to Abraam, saying, Behold, Melcha herself too has born sons to Nachor your brother,
20 his itaque gestis nuntiatum est Abraham quod Melcha quoque genuisset filios Nahor fratri suo
Uz the firstborn, and Baux his brother, and Camuel the father of the Syrians, and Chazad, and
21 Hus primogenitum et Buz fratrem eius Camuhel patrem Syrorum
Azav and Phaldes, and Jeldaph, and Bathuel, and Bathuel begot Rebecca;
22 et Chased et Azau Pheldas quoque et Iedlaph
these are eight sons, which Melcha bore to Nachor the brother of Abraam.
23 ac Bathuel de quo nata est Rebecca octo istos genuit Melcha Nahor fratri Abraham
And his concubine whose name was Rheuma, she also bore Tabec, and Taam, and Tochos, and Mocha.
24 concubina vero illius nomine Roma peperit Tabee et Gaom et Thaas et Maacha
