1 Yeroo muraasa booddee Waaqni Abrahaamin qore. Innis, “Abrahaam!” jedhee isa waame. Abrahaamis, “Kunoo asan jira” jedhee deebise.
And it came to pass after these things, that God tried Abraham, and said to him, Abraham! and he said, Here am I.
2 Waaqnis akkana jedheen; “Ilma kee Yisihaaq, ilma kee tokkicha isa jaallattu sana fudhiitii biyya Mooriyaa dhaqi. Tulluu ani sitti himu irratti qalma gubamu godhiitii isa dhiʼeessi.”
And he said, Take now thy son, thine only [son], whom thou lovest, Isaac, and get thee into the land of Moriah, and there offer him up for a burnt-offering on one of the mountains which I will tell thee of.
3 Abrahaamis guyyaa itti aanu ganama barraaqaan kaʼee harree isaa feʼate. Innis hojjettoota isaa keessaa nama lamaa fi ilma isaa Yisihaaqin fudhatee qoraan qalma gubamuuf gaʼu cabsatee gara iddoo Waaqni isatti hime sanaatti qajeele.
And Abraham rose early in the morning, and saddled his ass, and took two of his young men with him, and Isaac his son; and he clave the wood for the burnt-offering, and rose up and went to the place that God had told him of.
4 Guyyaa sadaffaattis Abrahaam ol ilaalee iddoo sana fagootti arge.
On the third day Abraham lifted up his eyes and saw the place from afar.
5 Innis hojjettoota isaatiin, “Isin harree wajjin asuma turaa. Anii fi mucichi duuba sana dhaqnaa; achittis waaqeffannee gara keessanitti deebinaa” jedhe.
And Abraham said to his young men, Abide ye here with the ass; and I and the lad will go yonder and worship, and come again to you.
6 Abrahaamis qoraan aarsaa gubamuuf taʼu fuudhee ilma isaa Yisihaaqin baachise; ofii isaatii immoo ibiddaa fi billaa harkatti qabate. Isaan lamaan utuu walumaan deemaa jiranuu,
And Abraham took the wood of the burnt-offering, and laid it on Isaac his son; and he took the fire in his hand, and the knife, and they went both of them together.
7 Yisihaaq, “Yaa abbaa koo” jedhee abbaa isaa Abrahaamitti dubbate. Abrahaamis, “Asan jira ilma koo” jedhee deebise. Yisihaaqis deebisee, “Ibiddii fi qoraan kunoo ti; hoolaan qalma gubamuuf taʼu immoo eessa jira?” jedhe.
And Isaac spoke to Abraham his father, and said, My father! And he said, Here am I, my son. And he said, Behold the fire and the wood; but where is the sheep for a burnt-offering?
8 Abrahaamis deebisee, “Yaa ilma ko, Waaqni mataan isaa hoolaa qalma gubamuuf taʼu ni kenna” jedhe. Isaan lamaanis walumaan karaa isaanii itti fufan.
And Abraham said, My son, God will provide himself with the sheep for a burnt-offering. And they went both of them together.
9 Yeroo iddoo Waaqni isatti hime sana gaʼanitti, Abrahaam iddoo aarsaa achitti ijaaree iddoo aarsaa sana irra qoraan naqe; ilma isaa Yisihaaqin hidhees iddoo aarsaa sana irra qoraan gubbaa ciibse.
And they came to the place of which God had told him. And Abraham built the altar there, and piled the wood; and he bound Isaac his son, and laid him on the altar upon the wood.
10 Ergasii inni ilma isaa qaluuf jedhee harka isaa hiixatee billaa fudhate.
And Abraham stretched out his hand, and took the knife to slaughter his son.
11 Ergamaan Waaqayyoo garuu, “Abrahaam! Abrahaam!” jedhee samii keessaa isa waame. Abrahaamis, “Kunoo asan jira” jedhee deebise.
And the Angel of Jehovah called to him from the heavens, and said, Abraham, Abraham! And he said, Here am I.
12 Innis, “Ati harka keetiin gurbicha hin tuqin; waan tokko illee isa hin godhin. Waan ati ilma kee, ilmuma tokkicha anaaf jettee hin mararfatiniif, ani akka ati Waaqa sodaattu amma beekeera” jedhe.
And he said, Stretch not out thy hand against the lad, neither do anything to him; for now I know that thou fearest God, and hast not withheld thy son, thine only [son], from me.
13 Abrahaamis ol ilaalee kunoo korbeessa hoolaa kan gaanfi isaa daggala keessatti qabamee jiru tokko arge; innis dhaqee hoolaa sana fuudhee qooda ilma isaa qalma gubamu godhee dhiʼeesse.
And Abraham lifted up his eyes, and looked, and behold, behind was a ram caught in the thicket by its horns; and Abraham went and took the ram, and offered it up for a burnt-offering instead of his son.
14 Kanaafuu Abrahaam iddoo sana “Waaqayyo ni kenna” jedhee moggaase; hamma harʼaatti illee, “Tulluu Waaqayyoo irratti, ni kennama” jedhama.
And Abraham called the name of that place Jehovah-jireh; as it is said at the present day, On the mount of Jehovah will be provided.
15 Ergamaan Waaqayyoo sunis samii keessaa lammata Abrahaamin waamee
And the Angel of Jehovah called to Abraham from the heavens a second time,
16 akkana jedheen; “Waaqayyo akkana jedha; sababii ati waan kana gootee fi ilma kee, ilmuma kee tokkicha illee na hin dhowwatiniif ani maqaa kootiin nan kakadha;
and said, By myself I swear, saith Jehovah, that, because thou hast done this, and hast not withheld thy son, thine only [son],
17 ani dhugumaan eebba, sin eebbisa; sanyii kees akkuma urjii samiitii fi akkuma cirracha qarqara galaanaa nan baayʼisa. Sanyiiwwan kees magaalaawwan diina isaanii ni dhuunfatu.
I will richly bless thee, and greatly multiply thy seed, as the stars of heaven, and as the sand that is on the sea-shore; and thy seed shall possess the gate of his enemies;
18 Waan ati naa ajajamteef sabni lafa irraa hundinuu karaa sanyii keetiin eebbifama.”
and in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth bless themselves, because thou hast hearkened to my voice.
19 Ergasii Abrahaam tajaajiltoota isaatti deebiʼe; isaanis walumaan Bersheebaatti qajeelan; Abrahaamis Bersheebaa keessa jiraate.
And Abraham returned to his young men, and they rose up and went together to Beer-sheba. And Abraham dwelt at Beer-sheba.
20 Yeroo muraasa booddee akkana jedhamee Abrahaamitti himame; “Kunoo, Miilkaan obboleessa kee Naahooriif ilmaan deesseerti;
And it came to pass after these things, that it was told Abraham, saying, Behold, Milcah, she also has borne sons to thy brother Nahor:
21 ilmaan isheen deesses inni hangafni Uuzi, obboleessi isaa Buuz, abbaan Arraam immoo Qamuʼeel,
Uz his first-born, and Buz his brother, and Kemuel the father of Aram,
22 Keseedi, Hazoo, Fiildaas, Yiidlaafii fi Betuuʼeel jedhamu.”
and Chesed, and Hazo, and Pildash, and Jidlaph, and Bethuel.
23 Betuuʼeel Ribqaa dhalche. Miilkaan isaan kana saddeettan Naahoor obboleessa Abrahaamiif deesse.
(And Bethuel begot Rebecca.) These eight Milcah bore to Nahor, Abraham's brother.
24 Naahor saajjatoo Reʼuumaa jedhamtu tokko qaba ture; isheen ilmaan Xebaa, Gaham, Tahaashii fi Maʼakaa jedhaman deesseef.
And his concubine, named Reumah, she also bore Tebah, and Gaham, and Thahash, and Maacah.
