उत्पत्ति 22
1 यी कुराहरूपछि परमेश्वरले अब्राहामको जाँच गर्नुभयो । उहाँले तिनलाई भन्नुभयो, “ए अब्राहाम!” अब्राहमले भने, “म यहीँ छु ।”
Now after these things, God put Abraham to the test, and said to him, Abraham; and he said, Here am I.
2 त्यसपछि परमेश्वरले भन्नुभयो, “तैँले माया गर्ने तेरो छोरो इसहाकलाई लिएर मोरीयाहको देशमा जा । त्यहाँको कुनै एक डाँडामा त्यसलाई होमबलि गर्, जुन म तँलाई बताउनेछु ।”
And he said to him, Take your son, your dearly loved only son Isaac, and go to the land of Moriah and give him as a burned offering on one of the mountains of which I will give you knowledge.
3 त्यसैले अब्राहाम बिहानै उठेर गधामा काठी कसे, अनि आफ्ना दुई जवान मानिसहरू र आफ्नो छोरो इसहाकलाई साथमा लिए । उनले होमबलिको निम्ति दाउरा चिरे, त्यसपछि परमेश्वरले तिनलाई भन्नुभएको ठाउँतर्फ यात्रा सुरु गरे ।
And Abraham got up early in the morning, and made ready his ass, and took with him two of his young men and Isaac, his son, and after the wood for the burned offering had been cut, he went on his way to the place of which God had given him word.
4 तेस्रो दिन अब्राहामले माथि हेरे र टाढा त्यो ठाउँ देखे ।
And on the third day, Abraham, lifting up his eyes, saw the place a long way off.
5 अब्राहामले आफ्ना जवान मानिसहरूलाई भने, “तिमीहरू गधासँग यहीँ बस, अनि म र यो केटो त्यहाँ जानेछौँ । हामी पूजा गर्नेछौँ र तिमीहरूकहाँ फेरि फर्केर आउनेछौँ ।”
Then he said to his young men, Keep here with the ass; and I and the boy will go on and give worship and come back again to you.
6 त्यसपछि अब्राहामले होमबलिको निम्ति दाउरा लिए र आफ्नो छोरो इसहाकलाई बोकाए । उनले आगो र छुरी आफ्नो हातमा लिए अनि ती दुवै जना सँगसँगै गए ।
And Abraham put the wood for the burned offering on his son's back, and he himself took the fire and the knife in his hand, and the two of them went on together.
7 इसहाकले आफ्ना पिता अब्राहामलाई भने, “बुबा,” अनि तिनले भने, “म यहीँ छु, मेरो छोरा ।” त्यसले भन्यो, “आगो र दाउरा त यहाँ छन्, तर होमबलिको लागि थुमाचाहिँ खोइ?”
Then Isaac said to Abraham, My father; and he said, Here am I, my son. And he said, We have wood and fire here, but where is the lamb for the burned offering?
8 अब्राहामले भने, “मेरो छोरा, परमेश्वरले नै होमबलिको निम्ति थुमा जुटाइदिनुहुनेछ ।” अनि ती दुवै सँगसँगै गए ।
And Abraham said, God himself will give the lamb for the burned offering: so they went on together.
9 परमेश्वरले तिनलाई भन्नुभएको ठाउँमा पुगेपछि अब्राहामले त्यहाँ एउटा वेदी बनाएर दाउरा राखे । त्यसपछि तिनले आफ्नो छोरो इसहाकलाई बाँधेर वेदीमा दाउरामाथि राखे ।
And they came to the place of which God had given him knowledge; and there Abraham made the altar and put the wood in place on it, and having made tight the bands round Isaac his son, he put him on the wood on the altar.
10 अब्राहामले आफ्नो छोरालाई मार्न छुरी उठाए ।
And stretching out his hand, Abraham took the knife to put his son to death.
11 त्यसपछि परमप्रभुका एक जना दूतले स्वर्गबाट तिनलाई भने, “ए अब्राहाम, अब्राहाम!” तिनले भने, “म यहीँ छु ।”
But the voice of the angel of the Lord came from heaven, saying, Abraham, Abraham: and he said, Here am I.
12 उनले भने, “तेरो हात त्यस केटामाथि नउठा, न त त्यसलाई केही गर, आफ्नो एक मात्र छोरालाई पनि मबाट तैंले रोकेर राखिनस् भन्ने देखेर तैँले परमेश्वरको भय मान्दोरहेछस् भनी मैले अब थाहा पाएँ
And he said, Let not your hand be stretched out against the boy to do anything to him; for now I am certain that the fear of God is in your heart, because you have not kept back your son, your only son, from me.
13 ।” अब्राहामले माथितिर हेरे र एउटा भेडा झाडीमा सीङ अल्झेर फसेको देखे । अब्राहामले गएर त्यस भेडालाई ल्याए, र तिनका छोराको सट्टामा त्यसैलाई होमबलि चढाए ।
And lifting up his eyes, Abraham saw a sheep fixed by its horns in the brushwood: and Abraham took the sheep and made a burned offering of it in place of his son.
14 यसकारण अब्राहामले त्यस ठाउँको नाउँ “परमप्रभुले जुटाउनुहुन्छ” राखे, र “परमप्रभुको डाँडामा जुटाइनेछ” भनी आजसम्म पनि भनिन्छ ।
And Abraham gave that place the name Yahweh-yireh: as it is said to this day, In the mountain the Lord is seen.
15 परमप्रभुका दूतले दोस्रो पल्ट स्वर्गबाट अब्राहामलाई बोलाएर भने,
And the voice of the angel of the Lord came to Abraham a second time from heaven,
16 यो परमप्रभुको घोषणा हो, “मैले आफ्नै नाउँमा शपथ खाएको छु, कि तैंले यो काम गरेकोले र तेरो छोरो, अर्थात् तेरो एउटै छोरालाई पनि मबाट नरोकेकोले
Saying, I have taken an oath by my name, says the Lord, because you have done this and have not kept back from me your dearly loved only son,
17 म निश्चय नै तँलाई आशिष् दिनेछु र म तेरा सन्तानको वृद्धि गरेर आकाशका तारा र समुद्र किनारका बालुवासरह तुल्याउनेछु । तेरा सन्तानले आफ्ना शत्रुहरूका ढोकाहरू पार गर्नेछन् ।
That I will certainly give you my blessing, and your seed will be increased like the stars of heaven and the sand by the seaside; your seed will take the land of those who are against them;
18 तेरा सन्तानद्वारा पृथ्वीका सबै जातिहरू आशिषित्् हुनेछन्, किनकि तैंले मेरो वचन पालन गरिस् ।”
And your seed will be a blessing to all the nations of the earth, because you have done what I gave you orders to do.
19 त्यसैले अब्राहाम आफ्ना जवान मानिसहरूकहाँ फर्केर आए, र तिनीहरू बेर्शेबासम्म सँगसँगै गए, अनि उनी बेर्शेबामा बसोबास गरे ।
Then Abraham went back to his young men and they went together to Beer-sheba, the place where Abraham was living.
20 यी कुराहरू भएको केही समयपछि “मिल्काले पनि तपाईंका भाइ नाहोरबाट छोराहरू जन्माइन्” भन्ने कुरा अब्राहामले सुने ।
After these things, Abraham had news that Milcah, the wife of his brother Nahor, had given birth to children;
21 तिनीहरू जेठो ऊज, त्यसको भाइ बूज, र आरामका पिता कमूएल,
Uz the oldest, and Buz his brother, and Kemuel, the father of Aram,
22 र केसेद, हजो, पिलदाश, यिदलाप र बतूएल थिए ।
And Chesed and Hazo and Pildash and Jidlaph and Bethuel.
23 बतूएल रिबेकाका पिता भए । अब्राहामका भाइ नाहोरबाट मिल्काले जन्माएका आठ छोराहररू यी नै थिए ।
Bethuel was the father of Rebekah: these eight were the children of Milcah and Nahor, Abraham's brother.
24 यीबाहेक रूमा नाउँ भएकी तिनकी भित्रिनीले पनि तेबह, गहम, तहस र माकालाई जन्माई ।
And his servant Reumah gave birth to Tebah and Gaham and Tahash and Maacah.
