1 Мојсијева 22
1 После тога хтеде Бог окушати Аврама, па му рече: Авраме! А он одговори: Ево ме.
After these things occurred, God tested Abraham, and he said to him, “Abraham, Abraham.” And he answered, “Here I am.”
2 И рече му Бог: Узми сада сина свог, јединца свог милог, Исака, па иди у земљу Морију, и спали га на жртву тамо на брду где ћу ти казати.
He said to him: “Take your only begotten son Isaac, whom you love, and go into the land of vision. And there you shall offer him as a holocaust upon one of the mountains, which I will show to you.”
3 И сутрадан рано уставши Аврам осамари магарца свог, и узе са собом два момка и Исака сина свог; и нацепавши дрва за жртву подиже се и пође на место које му каза Бог.
And so Abraham, getting up in the night, harnessed his donkey, taking with him two youths, and his son Isaac. And when he had cut wood for the holocaust, he traveled toward the place, as God had instructed him.
4 Трећи дан подигавши очи своје Аврам угледа место из далека.
Then, on the third day, lifting up his eyes, he saw the place at a distance.
5 И рече Аврам момцима својим: Останите ви овде с магарцем, а ја и дете идемо онамо, па кад се помолимо Богу, вратићемо се к вама.
And he said to his servants: “Wait here with the donkey. I and the boy will hurry further ahead to that place. After we have worshipped, will return to you.”
6 И узевши Аврам дрва за жртву напрти Исаку сину свом, а сам узе у своје руке огња и нож; па отидоше обојица заједно.
He also took the wood for the holocaust, and he imposed it upon his son Isaac. And he himself carried in his hands fire and a sword. And as the two continued on together,
7 Тада рече Исак Авраму оцу свом: Оче! А он рече: Шта је, сине! И рече Исак: Ето огња и дрва, а где је јагње за жртву?
Isaac said to his father, “My father.” And he answered, “What do you want, son?” “Behold,” he said, “fire and wood. Where is the victim for the holocaust?”
8 А Аврам одговори: Бог ће се, синко, постарати за јагње себи на жртву. И иђаху обојица заједно.
But Abraham said, “God himself will provide the victim for the holocaust, my son.” Thus they continued on together.
9 А кад дођоше на место које му Бог каза, Аврам начини онде жртвеник, и метну дрва на њ, и свезавши Исака сина свог метну га на жртвеник врх дрва;
And they came to the place that God had shown to him. There he built an altar, and he set the wood in order upon it. And when he had bound his son Isaac, he laid him on the altar upon the pile of wood.
10 И измахну Аврам руком својом и узе нож да закоље сина свог.
And he reached out his hand and took hold of the sword, in order to sacrifice his son.
11 Али анђео Господњи викну га с неба, и рече: Авраме! Авраме! А он рече: Ево ме.
And behold, an Angel of the Lord called out from heaven, saying, “Abraham, Abraham.” And he answered, “Here I am.”
12 А анђео рече: Не дижи руку своју на дете, и не чини му ништа; јер сада познах да се бојиш Бога, кад ниси пожалио сина свог, јединца свог, мене ради.
And he said to him, “Do not extend your hand over the boy, and do not do anything to him. Now I know that you fear God, since you have not spared your only begotten son for my sake.”
13 И Аврам подигавши очи своје погледа; и гле, ован иза њега заплео се у чести роговима; и отишавши Аврам узе овна и спали га на жртву место сина свог.
Abraham lifted up his eyes, and he saw behind his back a ram among the thorns, caught by the horns, which he took and offered as a holocaust, instead of his son.
14 И назва Аврам оно место Господ ће се постарати. Зато се и данас каже: На брду, где ће се Господ постарати.
And he called the name of that place: ‘The Lord Sees.’ Thus, even to this day, it is said: ‘On the mountain, the Lord will see.’
15 И анђео Господњи опет викну с неба Аврама.
Then the Angel of the Lord called out to Abraham a second time from heaven, saying:
16 И рече: Собом се заклех, вели Господ: кад си тако учинио, и ниси пожалио сина свог, јединца свог,
“By my own self, I have sworn, says the Lord. Because you have done this thing, and have not spared your only begotten son for my sake,
17 Заиста ћу те благословити и семе твоје веома умножити, да га буде као звезда на небу и као песка на брегу морском; и наследиће семе твоје врата непријатеља својих;
I will bless you, and I will multiply your offspring like the stars of heaven, and like the sand which is on the seashore. Your offspring will possess the gates of their enemies.
18 И благословиће се у семену твом сви народи на земљи, кад си послушао глас мој.
And in your offspring, all the nations of the earth will be blessed, because you obeyed my voice.”
19 Тада се Аврам врати к момцима својим, те се дигоше, и отидоше заједно у Вирсавеју, јер Аврам живеше у Вирсавеји.
Abraham returned to his servants, and they went to Beersheba together, and he lived there.
20 После тога јавише Авраму говорећи: Гле, и Мелха роди синове брату твом Нахору:
After these things occurred, it was reported to Abraham that Milcah, likewise, had borne sons for his brother Nahor:
21 Уза првенца и Вуза брата му, и Камуила, оца Арамовог,
Uz, the firstborn, and Buz, his brother, and Kemuel, the father of the Syrians,
22 И Хазада и Азава и Фалдеса и Јелдафа и Ватуила.
and Chesed, and Hazo, likewise Pildash, and Jidlaph,
23 А Ватуило роди Ревеку. Осам их роди Мелха Нахору брату Аврамовом.
as well as Bethuel, of whom was born Rebekah. These eight Milcah bore for Nahor, the brother of Abraham.
24 И иноча његова, по имену Ревма, роди и она Тавека и Гама и Тохоса и Моха.
In truth, his concubine, named Reumah, bore Tebah, and Gaham, and Tahash, and Maacah.
